SCOU INSANE,
DECLARE FIVE
OFALIENiSTS
Murder Trial "Result Conspiracy to Prevent Exjios
ing. of Crookedness" " V
CHICAOO, Aug. 4. — The effort to
nave Russell Scott from the gallows,
With a proof of Insanity, . was con-
eluded today with the testimony of
five alienists that they bad found
him mentally' deficient
One said - he suffered from paranoic
dementia; another, that he was not-
oriented as to his surroundings In the
county' Jail; and another that he suffered delusions of persecution. ' A
fourth Bald he believed his trial for
murder here last December to have
been the result of a gigantic conspiracy between the crown nttorneys of
Canada and state ' officials "to pre
Vent him from exposing the crookedness ot Canadian officials who set out
to destroy him."
■ Three jailers who guarded Scott in
the death cell, testified for the prosecution  that   they  believed   him   sane.
■ Fifteen other jailers and five state
alienists still are to be heard. The
case Probably will go to the Jury
Thursday.
The scope of the defence expert testimony was sharply limited by the
court to matters tending to establish
development of Insanity-since Febni'
ary 14, thla year, the date of Scott's
death  sentence.
sto ramlly History Allowed
Testimony Intended to establish a
hereditary basis for Scott's mental disorders * wa're abruptly halted by the
court, and a question put to the prls
oner's mother requesting her to "de
scribe tho birth of Russell" brought
a sharp rebuke from tho prosecution
counsel. " The court would permit no
examination of the family history of
the petitioner and the mother and
father wero on the stand merely for
the questioning necessary for tho rec-,
ord. The proferred deposition , of
Mrs. Catherine Scott, wlfo of the con
demned man, was held Incompetent
and inadmlssable.
There was no cross-examination of
the prosecution witnesses.
After defence testimony relative to
Scott's declaration ot Innocence' of
the murder of Joseph Maurer had
been excluded, the declaration twice
went to the Jury In tho testimony of
the Jailers. One guard said the prisoner declared "he would not beg for
mercy because he was innocent." Another said he declined to submit himself for the examination of state
alienists because he "knew lt would
bo nothing but a psychological third
degree, arid he did not need that to
prove his Innocence."

Belief Now That Suspension of Operations Will
Ensue in Mines
ATLANTIC CITT,'N.J.. Aug. 1. —
Tbe anthracite scale negotiations were
broken off at an early hour tonight
The motion'to adjourn "sine die,"
proposed by C. J. Oolden. president ot
district No. ». United Mlno workers,
was seconded by several operators,
and passed by the Joint committee.
The conferees reported they were In
complete disagreement on the miners'
demands in that further negotiations
appeared useless.
John - L. Lewis, president of lhe
United .Mine workers, submitted a reply to the letter ho received yester-
day from Samuel D. Warriner, chair-
man of the anthracite operators' conference, ln which the miners' leader
said, ln  part:   .....
Xo OeaatraotlT* Contribution
. 'The mine workers' representatives
deeply regret that the anthracite operators .have seen' fit to publicly announce their refusal to negotiate upon
a tysls of fact. Public statements of
Mr.' W. W. lnglls and yourself obviously given out while the negotiations
were In progress, demonstrate that the
operators do not propose te make any
constructive contribution toward the
success of the conference. With those
fact* In mind, tho mine workers' representative Is of the'Judgment that it
Is utterly futile to continue further
in th«,so wage scale negotiations."
The operators went into secret caq-
cub for SO minutes, and upon their- return they asked Mr. Lewis:
"Are we to understand from your
letter that in view of our opposition
to an increase of' wages and the
check off, you' refuse to continue negotiations?" :
Mr. Lewis answered "Yes," according to the account given by Mr.
lnglls, chairman of the operators' committee.
"In view of the difference between
us," came a second question, "do you
flatly, reject the proposal that all mat.
tors In dispute bo submitted to Impar.
tlal arbitration under conditions Insuring adjudication fair to all parties
concirned, work to continue at present rates pending the result of auch
arbitration?" .
Lewis replied, according to lnglls
quoting from his letter to Warriner,
to the effect that arbitration would
not be acceptable.
Mr. lnglls later charged Mr. Lewis
with deliberately wrecking the wage
conference.        ,
The official communique issued by
tho Joint conference after adjourn,
ment waa as follows:
"August 4,'1911.
"The anthracite, committee met today.
"Unable to reach an agreement, tho
committee adopted the following-
.„m'^V*. *''"-«■«   adjourn   sine   die.
subject   to   the   call   of   either   side
through the chairman."'
Both Operators and miners were
preparing to break camp tonight. The

the. various leaders. Nothing Is ex.

Make Feet Tired
The miles, and miles of hard surface
roadways and side-walks are very wonderful, but, being hard, non-resilient, and
excellent conductors of heat and cold, they
torture our poor feet unmercifully.
It has been found that if tired, sore feet
■re bathed in warm water containing a few
drops of Absorbine Jr. they will be delightfully cooled and refreshed.
But this is not the only use for Absorbine
Jr. It is a liniment, antiseptic,'and germicide in one—the handiest, most Useful
article in the family medicine cabinet.
Not only does it kill germs and prevent
infection in open cuts and sores, hastening
the healing—not only does it limber up to
new freshness, tired, stiff muscles, but asa
mouth wash, throat spray or garble it
protects you against wandering disease
germs and leaves behind a pleasant, clean
taste and odor, fi.15 a bottle at your

Leverton should havo hurried away
from her . father's, death-bed, and
come to'the of flee, in this mysterious
fashion.        \
But Carsddle—and a few other
people—knew thftt the ' business relations of Barclay Leverton and himself were peculiar. , There was no
legal partnership between them. It
was true,that their- names appeared
In conjunction on the list of ten.
ants painted up ln the marble-
paved hall on the ground floor of
the palatial building of which they
occupied the top-story; that they
were blpzoned forth, again In conjunction, on the heavy brass plate
of tho swinging doors which gave
admission to their offices, but the
real truth was.that they were only
partners when It suited them both
to - be partners. They Joined in
paying the rent and the rates and
the office expenses; they mutually
shared the services' of Mi's. Walslngham, of Miss Rousby, the typist, and
ot Orlffkln, the office-boy. . They
had had business affairs in common; sometimes they had business
affairs In which other men Joined.
But each had his own affairs, his
own business; each had his own secrets. ' And the people who * knew
Leverton well, and "Carsdale well,
knew that each could, If he pleased,
bo as close and secret as the grave.
To men who had only a superficial
knowledge . of this establishment,
the - precise' nature of the business
carried on by Leverton & Carsdale,
In conjunction or- separately, was
more or less of a mystery. They
did not ' describe themselves, and
were not described anywhere, as anything. In plain truth, they were
agents, speculators, and dabblers of
a comprehensive, all-embracing sort.
They turned their brains, hands,
money to anything that seemed like-
ly- tio be profitable. They were
adepts at promoting-companies, at
advising people on the Investment of
capital, at introducing men of ideas
to men of means, at showing a poor
inventor how to profit by his invention. All manner of strange
and curious folk went up and down
the elevator to and from ' Leverton
& Carsdale's—some Wore ' glad and
gleeful countenances, even at the
end of a year's experience of them;
some began to cultivate a r gnashing
ot teelh and a muttering ot curses
before many - weeks had passed.
There were men Who hinted that
strange tales could be told ■ of the
establishment, who wagged the head
at the name of Leverton, and winked
the eye at that ot Carsdale, but ln
spite of that there was always a
steady stream of business, ahd each
man always seemed to be advising
somebody, or engineering some Important schemes for somebody else.
And there were still other men who
hinted—more quietly and darkly—
that If anybody knew the real and
inner workings of the concern,
whether In Us Joint or Its single
capacities, that person was the lady
known as Mrs. Walslngham, who
Was held to be the confidante of

A charge of. common assault was
brought up before Magistrate William Brown In city.police court Monday, morning by - Reginald Howe
against Thomas , Sargent both of
this city. Howe charged that Sargent borrowed an electric fan from
him, and when he went to get It
the' next ■ day, they quarrelled, and
Sargent hit him, breaking his straw
hat, and also kicked him on the
left leg, which resulted ln a ver^
painful wound. The case ' was' adjourned until yesterday - owing to
Witness J. F. Coates failing to appear In court. - This witness was
heard yesterday, and Magistrate
Brown then'deferred judgment until
next Monday morning. ,     ,
'., Clifford Irving prosecuted. ' ; ,
•' Howe In his , testimony . .Monday
swore he / had - rented ,' an . electric
fan to Sargent on July 28, on the
condition that - the fan would be
returned it the Howe 'Electric company had the means of selllhg It.
The following morning he entered the
Kootenay Garage, * and told -, Sargent
he wanted the fan to take . home
for his mother, who was sick, Sarj-
gent gave the fan to him,and.when
Sargent asked htm Why he didn't
ask for a fan from one of the other
parties -to , whom he ' had rented
fans, the. quarrel began. -.
' Howe said thati when he saw Sargent f was about to - atrlke him, he
tried to defend himself, but was too
late, as Sargent had struck him oh
the head, smashing his : straw , hat.
When he. called Sargent a liar, the
latter kicked him, on the > left leg.
Sargent Denies Assault
Sargent, In his testimony, denied
that he • either struck Howe, or
kicked   him. .
His account of the encounter was
that he, merely knocked -Howe's
hat out ? of his hand when ; Howe
stuck .. lt   at   his - face.
He said. Howe'a straw hat was
broken when - It fell to the ground
and not when struck.
Dr. D.' W. McKay, the doctor attending Howe, gave evidence as.to
the else and condition of'the wound
on , the leg, -He said-Howe came to
him on the morning of July 28,' with
a triangular cut, < which he treated.
The base'.of the cut,' he said, was
about two inches long.   -
Coates Turned Back
- J. P. Coates,-the witness who was
absent during.the first bearing,-sat
yesterday's continuation of the case,
gave a statement as,to.what.he had
seen and heard during • his . presence
at' the garage on • the ' morning - of
July 28. lie stated he saw Sargent
and Howe talking very.. harshly at
the - entrance - ot. the . garage,. and
thought he would wait for Howe, as
he.had some business matters to fix
up with Howe. .He went over to thi
garage, and heard tho two-men talk;
ing about an. electric fan, both talk^
Ing In a - hot'' tempered manner;
When he saw the men waving,fists
at each other, he told them to "cut
It  out." ,
Coates said he turned his . hack
and walked a few feet, from' where
the men stood, and when he turned
around again he saw Howe .picking
up his badly damaged . straw hat
from the ground. - He stated he did
not see Sargent kick Howe, or strike
him ln any way, but merely saw
Howe picking up his mutilated straw
hat. He heard Howe tell Sargent
that he would have to buy him a
new straw : hat,'to which Sargent
made no reply.
The witness said he and Howe
left the garage together, but before doing so' Coates said he told
Sargent that he had a fan over at
his office that he would rent to
him, but would not sell lt.
, Magistrate Brown said he would
reserve his decision until Monday,

!   69,000 Hands Needed .
OTTAWA, Aug. 4.—Inquiry at the
department of Immigration and colonization today elicited the information that approximately 60,01)0 harvest hands would be required for
this year's western' crop. O"? this
number It Is estimated that'the Western -provinces will supply about 19,
000, .and that from 30,000 to 35.000
may be secured from eastern Canada, owing to the early harvesting In
the   east.
"Are you arranging a program to
bring harvesters from the United
Kingdom?" the department was
nsked. .
Nerer  Arranged   Program
"Wo have never arranged any
program of this kind." was - the
reply. "It la always left-to the
transportation companies, but, as ln
the year 1923, we ore always prepared to cooperate,- There can be no
doubt that if we were approached by
transportation companies for cooperation ln bringing harvesters from
the United Kingdom to Winnipeg,
at an approximate rate of 12 pounds,
arrangements could be put . under
yay at once which ought to bring
anywhere from 3 to 5 thousand men
who,,would fit In the, harvest work,
We have, however, , not heen approached hy any transportation com-
istny, so far. It may be, however,
that they expect to get' the required
number from Canada and the United
States."

';';■ Eleven Years Ago
'y Eleven years ago yesterday
since the cables flashed around
the world, and the wireless
Sparked over the arc of the
. Bess; the message that Great
Britain was at war with Germany.  :
^ That message was expected,
hut how. it transformed things 1
The world has never been
the same since.
'For a few days the universe
seemed topsy-turvy — people
could not get their footing.
"F.ttw had had experience.
. V Enlistments started on the
instant in. every country, organizations were born to perform various useful functions,
and, earnestly, and yet in some
Sense, "■' blithely, the . younger
British nations launched themselves full force into an enterprise wholly. strange to them,
and almost strange to the entire generation.
British honor, it was universally felt, was involved in two
ways—the British signature
was oa the treaty that sup-
s posedly protected Belgium from
aggression, and impliedly, Brit-
tain's - bonne entente with
France meant that she must
fight by the side of invaded
France. When in the British
house of commons it was announced that Britain was not
so bound to France in spite of
their 'defensive alliance, when
it was officially stated that
parliament could refuse to permit declaration of war on Germany, a feeling of shame ani-
'•■■ "mated many Britishers in all
'' 'lands for 24 hours. Then, when
parliament, with practical unanimity, backed the government
of_ the day in demanding war,
Britishers held their heads high
again, and started to consider
their personal part in-the enterprise.
•Millions of British lie under
various skies as a result of
the decision taken in those
troublous days, and among them
60,000 Canadians.    -
* While everyone regrets with
* his whole soul that the war occurred, no one can ever regret
- the  decision  that the  British
' family of nations took, in the
path of honor/after exhausting
every possible effort to turn
aside Germany from its mad
'■course.
* "."May this generation of British-peoples see no repetition,
on even the smallest scale, of
war participation.
To this end, the whole weight
of all the British family of nations is thrown, rightly, behind
the League of Nations, which is
'the promise that the nations,
large and small, -will act together against an aggressor nation that attempts to enforce
its uninsf desires'by violence.

Across   the    space    called    years   1

aaw him, In company with the* railway'surgeon, and ventured tn guess
that he ■ would likely recover. The
surgeon shook hla- head, nnd said.
"Too much' surface burned; he hasn't
a chance." ■ The. surgeon was right,
as he died a day or two Inter.
■* Death following severe burns has
been ascribed to shock, but even more
to the poisons from the decomposing
burned flesh, which, absorbed by the
blood, poisons the entire svstem. It
Is of-vital Interest In all of us..thon,
when we resd of a few. treatment for
burns, that haa been developed bv
one of the physicians of the Srck
Children's  hospital,   Toronto. ,   t
The Idea underlying It is - very
simple.v A' certain quantity of, the
blood11 poisoned by the severe burn,
or even poisoned ,by other substancei.
Is removed from the body by opening
a blood vessel. By the .removal of
this blood, laden as It Is with poisonous products of •deeomnos-titlon, the
first atep Is accomplished.
Then, by Introducing fresh, pure
blood Into the system, the circulation
Is maintained, and this fresh blood
goes to build up the Injured parts
arid i«move more of the poison from
the burned area. ...
And now that the transfusion/of
blood Is being used so extensively In
anemia and other1 wasting conditions,
a great deal that is new has'been
discovered by our research men. '■'•..
-■ They have found methods , for
matching the blood of the one who
Is giving with the one that Is receiving, so that, there will be perfect-
fusion, no,clotting or other accidents.
Also a method whereby blood may
be kept for some time In properly
prepared vessels and bc available tn
an emergency.
And even further, a method whereby
blood may be given to a patient
who is not "doing well" on the operating table, by connecting by means of
tubing, the giver of the blood and thp
patient. The transfusion is accomplished even while' the operation is
being carried on.
Thus this matter of removing bad
or poisoned blood, and replacing it
with pure, fresh ■ "matched" blood,
has  wonderful  possibilities.

Germans Fight lor;

Riffs, Say Berliners
BERLIN, Aug. 4. — One-half of the
foreign, leglonalres fighting on the
side of France against Abd el Krlm
In Morocco are Germans,. In the
opinion of Berlin military experts.
Not only Is It untrue that Germans
have come to the aid of the Moroccan chieftain, they say, but on the
contrary France is being supported
by about 12,000 to 15.000 German
subjects enrolled In the foreign
legion.
This rather startling fact Is explained In the following manner: In
article 179 of the Trea,:y of Versailles, Germany undertakes not to
permit any of Ita subjects to enter
the service of another , power, except that It Is specifically provided
that this, article shall not- he ap-

to romp and play"
THE h'aid of sicknesi touched her—and it .was all'so'piti-
fully unnecessary.'
She touched a door handle, a book, money,? telephone, or
something upon which other hands had left invisible disease
. germs. Thegerms passed into her system by way of htr nose
or mouth. Then the fever—the days of dread—the long convalescence—the impaired vitality.
' Mothers—protect the tender health of your children. Have
everyone in the family use Lifebuoy frequently—because
Lifebuoy is a real health soap and combats the ever-present
dangers of dirt. ,
The rich, creamy lather of Lifebuoy carries a gentle antiseptic
deep down into every pore and leaves the skin purifitd. The
wholesome odour soon vanishes—but the Lifebuoy protection
remains.
Lifebuoy is a pure,
bland soap, made from
the rich oils of palm
fruit and cocoanut. .It
agrees with your skin

CRANBROOK, Aug. 4. — Together
with a number of scouts from fernle
and Michel nnd their scoutmasters, 29
boys accompanied by J. M. Clnrk ond
Martin Harris left Monday for Peek-
ham's lake, where they will camp for
the next two weeks, O. H. Scarrett.
assistant provincial commissioner,
came in on Friday to help In preparing the camp. Previously he'had
lents and other- equipment sent In
from tbe coast. On Friday evening
he addressed the scouts of the various
troops in the city, advising them what
lo take to camp and giving them some
General rules. Following this a meeting of those interested In scout work
was addressed by Mr. Scarrett,
To the boy, scouting - gate something definite to do, as well as healthy recreation; to the parent, it aided
ln the education problem, and by
making good citizens out of the boys
it helped the nation,- said the speaker.
He said that a great many people
bad tho Idea It. was a sort of military
training. It taught the boy to be
self-reliant, taught him how to be-a
good comrade, ond helped him to find
his own  particular work In life.    ',
■In conclusion, Mr. Scarrett hoped
that the people of Cranbrook would
come to have a better -understanding
of the movement, and would give the
boy.s the support they must have.
Scoutmaster Sykes of Victoria is also accompanying the boys In their
camp. ••

For eiRht years Kussta has been

She has wiped out profits. Without

and - no addition   to  business capital.
Russia, then, has lived on her business .capital, which iu an Individual

It has steadily diminished, nnd the
country has grown  p»mrer and  poorer.
Sho hns been trying to borrow hundreds of millions of dollars from other
countries to build up thut business
capital again. If thnt nrnnep, too,
should not be used to build up profits

LONDON,! Aug.   4.—The  house   ofK BNtfUSlflVdMAN   wants   work,   hour
commons tonight finally adopted the
government's nhval estimates, including tlie program for the construction nf war ships. Tlie bill
was passed by a vote of 31.5 to
125 without debate-, ln the lobbies
of parliament, this evening, the main
topic of conversation was n suggestion for taxing, beer tn provide for
the coal subsidy. The suggestion
was generally regarded as n sort
of trial balloon sent up by the government to discover how the country Would take to the idea.
.It was commented upon by the
members of all parties, mostly with
hostility. In any case, such a measure could hardly be proposed until
tho next budget statement Is made in
li*2(1. The labor members n[ parliament Were especially hostile to the
suggestion..

NHW YORK, Aug. 4.—The bars of
Ineligibility, lowered against Jack
Dempsey for his alleged dilatory
tactics in signing for a title mktch
with Harry Wills, wero reinforced by
un added barrier tonight when the
New York state athletic commission
ruled It would suspend any boxer
who meets Dempsey before he signs
articles of agreement and posts a
suitable forfeit for a match with
Wills.
Flaying Demp^ey's Jetter-wrltlng
tactics as an intentional evasion of
the Wills' Issue. Chairman Farley
said the commission would "wash its
hands'' of the whole situation"until
such time as the champion or his
legitimate manager binds a match
with Wills with a certified bond.
Csn't   Declare   Title   Vacant
"We cannot suspend Dempsey." dc
dared Chairman Farley, "as he holds
no licence with this commission. . We
cannot declare the title vacant because we have not the power, but he
Is already on the Ineligible list and
will remain so until he signs for tho
Wills fight. If we could declare the
title vacant we would."

on file with the commission and the
board ruled that lt would take no
action against Walker until the expiration of the time limit for thla

Sh* waa taken *bord th* escort-
. ing tug which turned *bout and
started back for Franc*.
Although she failed in her effort,
Mile, Slon set a record for women
swimmers In the channel, as the
nearest of any of the several members of her sex .who have attempted
the feat baa come to the' Ertgllsh
shore was five miles.' , This was
Miss Lillian Harrison, the Argentine,
who on July 16 cBsayed the swim
from Cape drlx Nes to Dover. Like
Mile. Slon she was forced to abandon
the task owing to the low temperature
of the water. ,
■ Swam Strongly
Weather and water conditions were
favorable when Mile. Slon took hor
plunge at Cape Grt* Nes at 8:10
o'clock this morning. The sea was
unusually calm. She swam strongly
and steadily throughout the day and
far Into the night.
• By mid-afternoon she had reached
a point approximately half way,,and
early ln the evening had threshed her
way to a point within five miles ot
Pover. The sea still remained calm
but adverse tides were holding back
the swimmer. The tug accompanying
Mile. Slon could be plainly seen out
In the channel moving slowly alolig
with her. Early tonight she had
fought her way iri against the rising
tide to about four miles from her
objective.
Katn began falling about this time,
adding to the trials of the swimmer.
She fought on, however, and beat
her way ln. toward tho shore another mile. Apparently she still was
swimming strong.
i The final effort brought her to
within a mite and a quarter of
Dover, but the rushing tldo and the
coldness of the water forced her to
give up. Sho waa pulled aboard the
tug which put about and started
back for France.
Mile. Slon left the water at 9:40
p. m., having been swimming 13
hours and 30 minutes. This a record
for   submersion   by   women.

Progressives Will Support
•Progressive Measures .,
: Not Believed Serious    ,
REGINA, Aug. 4.—"When the
government , Introduces progressive
measures they will be given(pro-
grtsslve support," declared ' Robert
Forks, M.P., leader of the Progressives ln the federal house' who ad;
dressed a largely attended public
meeting here tonight. "I tun prepared,'to say the same thing to Rt.
Hon Arthur Meighen. Whfen he In?
troduces Progressive measures he
win got Progressive support,**, he
said.
Mr. Forke described the 1925 budget as a stand pat budget apd went
on to declare that high protection
was more likely to lead to United
States domination than free trade
between the two countries. .
Asks  Constructive Work
The Progressive leader declared
the great fault of the King government was that It had stood true to
the Liberal platform while he said
the Progressives would appreciate
It If Mr. Meighen would use his
great ability to bring forward something constructive. The Progres
aivo party was the most united group
In the house and declared, Mr,
Forke, "When you hear of Progressive disintegration, take It with a
grain   of   salt." "-
Mr. Forke declared the future
greatness of tho Dominion rested
upon tbe development and prosperity of the, prairie provinces and the
problem of bringing agricultural
prosperity was not a group ques-.
tlon. It had remained for the Progressives tn the federal house to
bring In tht needs of the agricultural population.

VANCOUVER, Am.' 4.—The 8un

from Stewart, B.O.:
"Canada may • have a new ocoan
port giving 41r*ct- access to the sea
from Yukon territory i and obviating
the' present necessity of crossing
United States territory from Skag-
*ay, according to statement, made
by J. P. Ford*, Dominion government
engineer, who passed' through■'• here
on his way to the head ot Glacier
laay, an Inlet, west of Lynn canal.
■'When the boundary between Alaska and Canada- was delimited, -It
ran east, and west several miles north
of the head of open water ln Glacier
bay, but crossed a field' ot solid Ice
or glacier-connected with tha waters
of tho bay. Changing climate, un
usually wajm, weather:or some na-
tural upheaval of the ' Ice body has
caused the, ice to disintegrate, Mr.
Forde declares with the- result' that
the open waters of Glacier bay now
extend past the boundary line Into
Canadian territory.
"This would make' Glacier bay an
International waterway, lt Is assumed
and a Canadian port. A direct outlet Is, therefore, feasible, provided a
route can be found to connect with
the Yukon' river or other, streams,
of the Interior.** ' '
