After the defense concluded its tes timony, the State Introduced a num ber of witnesses In rebuttal.

He said that Apepibaum was laugh ing and Mrs. Appelbaum said; “You may think it is funny now, but Just wait until we get in the room."

WASHINGTON, April 25.—Con- gresssman J. Hampton Moore, a Penn sylvania Republican, found a new way to deliver a tariff speech in the House to-day. Mr. Moore conducted tariff “catechism” by having the House clerk read questions ,t)ie mem ber had prepared and which Moore iswered from the floor. , The catechism began when the clerk asked: “When was the first tar iff act passed?” Questions and an swers then took tariff legislation step by step up to the Underwood bill, which was “roasted” by Mr. Moore. Moore called his si>eech a “tariff primer,’’ and the spectacle was with out precedent in the House. Con gressman Moore explained he took this unusual method of speechmaking following the “Stop. Look. Listen.” example of President Wilson, who, a few days ago, addressed the House on the tariff issue. | Why the Payne Bill Passed. “Wiiy was the Payne bill passed?” Moore was asked. * ‘Becaues the Democrats were con tinuously misrepresenting the tariff question,” said "Pupil” Moore. ‘Did the Payne bill revise the tariff downward ?” “It did. and equalized many duties.” “If the people enjoyed such won derful progress under the Payne law, why did they complain?” They listened to ambitious politi- ians, agitators without consciences, journalistic organs with axe^ to grind, magazines seening pap, essayists who found it more profitable to write fic tion than to work, theoretical college professors, non-producers and a few sincere reformers usually misinformed and frequently misled. ” answered Moore. The clerk then asked Moore what was meant by the Wilson-Underwood bill. Takes Slap at President. “The bill introduced by Chairman Underwood, exponent in the House of the theories of President Wilson was Moore’s reply. Congressman Moore also got in a shot at the “distressing consequences” of Democratic power in the nineties, which were followed py a return to Republicanism and the enactment of the Dingley law. The industries of the country, he answered, thrived both under the Dingley and Payne laws, but many of them would be wrecked under the Underwood bill. Mr. Moore declared that President Wilson favored the breaking up of industrial establishments if they can not operate on equal terms with those abroad. “In what respect has the gentleman from Alabama Indorsed the views of President Wileon?” he was-asjlrSd. Attacks Income Tax, Too. “In shaping his tariff bill so as to discourage American enterprise and industry and encourage foreign com petition to the end that cheaper goods shall be supplied, though their Wages be lowered and their employment taken away. “The Underwood bill threatens thq destruction of the sugar industry, me naces the cotton and wool industries, and, while admittedly destroying $100,000,000 worth of revenue collected at the customs houses from importers of foreign commodities, attempts to make up that deficiency by an income tax levied directly upon some of the people and only some of the •'people whose offense ip that they have been more industrious and thrifty.” Underwood Not to Allow “Gag Rule.” minute rule, or the greater part of it, would be eliminated and the bill brought to the stage of final passage next Tuesday. Minority Leader Mann said there was no disposition on the part of the Republicans to filibuster. He insisted that the bill should have a fair amount of discussion. Secretly, Republicans would wel come the passing of a gag rule, as they claim it would give them cam paign matter. WASHINGTON. April ^.—Demo cratic Leader Underwood to-day was subjected to much pressure to hasten the passage of the tariff revision, bill in thi* House. He refused, though, to allow any gag rule to be brought in until a reasonable amount of debate has been allowed. Representative Hardwick, of Geor gia, is trying to adopt a special rule whereby all debate under the ‘five Mrs. Jack Mashburn Rejoices as Husband No. 2 Is Freed by Atlanta Police. Df-spite the fact that she was or dered held by Justice Ridley in bond of $7u0 for bigamy, Mrs. Jack Mash burn, the 17-year-old LaGrange girl who openly scorned C. W. Smith, a L.aOfttng’e farmer, Husband No. 1, when they met in, court, to-day de clared that she i» supremely happy. Smilingly coyly, she said; "You know, ]"m happy for two great reasons. The first Is that Jack, my darling Jack, was turned loose and didn’t have to go to jail. The second reason is that. 1 know that true iovo will triumph. “My first marriage with that coun tryman, Smith, doesn't count at all,” she continued, with a merry laugh. The trouble with him is that he was trying to interfere with true love, and he got bumped. He knows I don’t love him and never loved him. and why doesn't he let me alone in my joy . Swears Loyalty to Mashburn. She insisted she would stick to Mashburn, no matter what the out come of her case. “They may send me to the peni tentiary, but 1 would c laim my love when I got out,” she said. “If these judges and officers only knew just how my heart is bulging out with love for my dear Jack they’d have human feeling and sympathy enough to turn me loose. “But then they’ve turned Jack loose, anyway, and this makes me happy. Oh, I wouldn't have him to suffer for anything. They can do whatever they may with me, but I don’t want them to harm Jack. “You know this is the way I feel about It—-love is the whole thing with a girl, and I think she should have full swing when It comes to love. Every girl should marry the man she loves, no matter what obstacles are placed in her path. She should let no one persuade her to do otherwise. I listened to persuasion and allowed myself to be forced into a loveless marriage. You see the consequences. It has brought down on me all of this trouble. Her Love Philosophy. “If a girl wishes to be happy in matrimony she should choose for her self—follow the dictates of her own heart and conscience. There may be certain traits in a man’s character that will cause a certain girl to fairly adore him, while they might not at tract the attention of other persons. Hence, when a girl feels real, true love,, she should cherish it and put il abdve the likes and dislikes and whims' of others. '’‘By 1 listening to others instead of to the’‘promptings of my own heart, you see. I’m stamped as a bigamist But I don't feel that I'm a bigamist, because I don’t consider that 1 was ever married to Charlie Smith.” Mrs. Mashburn was put under $700 bond by Justice Ridley, when her counsel. Colonel E. A. Jones, of La- Grange. waived preliminary hearing. The case of Mashburn was dismissed, as the prosecution had no evidence to show that he had any knowledge that the girl had another husband at the time he married her. Sheriff O. H. Florence and Deputy Sheriff Gus Reed, who came here to take Mrs. Mashburn back to La- Grange in the event she was not held by the Atlanta court, have returned to LaGrange. Kirkland May Quit As Vanderbilt Head Chancellor John H. Kirkland, of Van derbilt University, who is in Atlanta to attend the Southern Sociological Congress,, may become president of the University of Arkansas, at Fayetteville, on or about June 1, according to a press dispatch received in Atlanta to-day. Chancellor Kirkland, when questioned concerning this report declared that he had made no arrangements to leave Vanderbilt' and had received no offer from the trustees of the Arkansas insti tution at this time. He added that a year ago he was tendered the presi dency of the University of .Arkansas and declined it. The office is still vacant. It is probable, therefore, that the Ar ansas college board contemplates re opening last year’s negotiations.
