PRESIDENT WILSON
ACCUSED OF DEAL
.' WITH MONEY KINGS
Republican Congressional
Committee Issues Statement
Charging Repeal of Tolls
Exemption to a Campaign
Bargain.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-The Republl
can Congressional Committee, In a state
ment Issued Inst night, virtually charges
President Wilson with having entered Into
a bargain with Andrew Carnegie and
James J. Hill, under the terms of which
the two millionaires are financing tho
Democratic Congressional campaign as a
return for the action of the President In
bringing about the repeal of tho Panama
Canal free tolls net.
Representative Frank P. Woods, of
Iown, Is chnlrman of the committee
which makes the nccttsatlon ngalnst tho
President of tho United States.
According to the statement which has
for Its text tfomo newspaper dispatches,
saying that Messrs. Carnegie and Hill
wcro financing tho Democratic Congres
sional campaign this yenr, Mr. Carnegie
"through his so-called pcuco endowment"
spent thousands of dollars In tho Interest
of the President's canal tolls repoal propa
ganda, and Mr, Hill was even moro In
terested In having tho net repealed, "hut
Ills reasons were different"
It was a case of helping Great Britain
with Mr. Cnrncglo, tho statement asserts,
but with Mr. Hill It was a matter of
dollars and cents, because toll exemption
nould Intcrfero with high freight rates
of his railroads. "All of tho Hill In
fluence was Joined with that of tho
Canadian Pacific Railroad to kill off free
tolls," the statement declares.
Tho statement continues:
"So It was that n, common cause was
made between President Wilson and theso
two foremost representatives of tho preda
tory interests and, Indeed, tho co:..olna
tlon of big money on tho oro hand nnd
barrels of political patronage on tho other
were too strong for thoso who contended
that tho canal should be operated In the
Interest of the American Government,
which built It, nnd tho people, who paid
for it. Democrats In Congress, who by
tho scoro were at heart for free tolls,
fearing the loss of postmasters and other
fat political Jobs, stood by tho President
until free tolls went down to defeat,
nmld the unsuppressed exultation of tho
Hills and tho Carneglcs."
Tho Republican Congressional Commit
tee accuses Mr. Hill of being actuated
also, in his alleged contributions to the
Democratic Congressional campaign, by
resentment over tho action of Republi
can Legislatures In States through which
the Hill railroads pass in enacting rail
road legislation. Tm Legislatures of Min
nesota. North Dakota, South Dakota,
Montana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon
nie mentioned. Reference Is made also
to Senator La Folletto's light ngalnst rail
roads in Wisconsin, and tho Burlington,
which Mr. Hill controls, wns one of tho
first to feel tho effect of It, according to
the statement.
The statement may bo expected to stir
moro or less discordant echoes in tho Re
publican camp, as 25 Republican members
of the House voted for tho repeal of tho
tolls exemption clause.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.
Andrew Carnegie, In an article, "A
League of Peace, Not Preparation for
War," In tho Independent, makes a plea
to warring nations to consider sorlously
the adjustment of all future disputes
through tho Hague conference or other
tribunal satisfactory to the contendants,
Mr. Carnegie declares that preparation
for war as a. means of assuring peace
ha been proved a failure, and that tho
agreement between tho Allies which
binds them to act only In unison In all
mntlers affecting peaco Is an Illustration
of the forthcoming union of nations to
preserve peace.
"Among the forthcoming rcsultB of the
present European war," sayB Mr. Carne
gie, "there Is to bo proven onco again
tho fallacy that world peaco can bo
socurod through preparation by each na
tion for war. On the contrary, there can
bo no possible escape from the conclusion
that war can bo abolished only through
a union of powerful peace nations, re
solved to preserve the peace themselves
and nlso, If absolutely necessary, to en
force It upon others.
"The present war gives us upon a small
scale nn illustration of tho forthcoming
union of nations to preserve peace, In tho
ogreemunt executed by the Allies, Britain,
Russia nnd France, which binds them to
act only In unison In all matters affect
ing peaco.
"Aitor tno present belligerents ngrco
upon peaceful settlement Germany and
Austria should bo tho first Invited by tho
Allies to Join In forming a League of
Peaco. Should they ncccpt, then some of
tho other nations might bo Invited. First,
one general World Pence Commission
shall be established, to which each mem
ber shall contribute toward expenditure In
proportion to Its population and wealth.
Their respective fleets shall bo merged,
controlled nnd opcrnted undor such man
agement as the Icaguo may direct from
time to time. No war policy or attack
upon any nation or fleet shall bo made
except by a majority vote of two-thirds
of all the members of tho World Peace
League, and then only after timely notlco
to tho nations threatened. Tho commis
sion shall exercise undisputed authority,
always provided It Is sustained nnd its
notion approved from tlmo to time by
two-thirds of tho total membership."

achieved, would havo meant moro than
$25,000,000 for the heirs, of whom Mrs.
Blaldsell was the principal.
The heirs sold shares In the case, there
being not one State in tho Union In which
some shares were not sold. J. J. Hill, of
St. Paul, is one of thoso directly Inter
ested, since tho caso wns founded upon
the allegations involving tho Northern
Pacific, Southern Pacific and the Union
Pacific railroads. During the legal

CHESTER COUNTY PLANS
WAR HEROES MEMORIAL
Soldiers and Sailors' Monument to
Be Erected After Long Delay.

that has agitated Chester County folk,
from tlmo to tlmo for more than ten
years will probably be solved In tho

.ni v.nnni. nf Hio nnlilUra and sailors
who enlisted In this county to serve In, the
Civil War.

recommended to tho County Commission
ers that a suitable shaft be erected, to
cost not more than $20,000, the project
was greeted with enthusls-am. Then the
question of a design came up, and tho

Just now the question of location or
tho shaft has been Injected Into the

CHICAGO JUDGE ALLEGES
PICKPOCKETS' TRUST
Asserts It Operatos With Connivance
of tho Police.
CHICAGO, Oct. 15. The City Council
Commltteo on Crime, delving Into the
causes for tha existence of bands of pick
pockets, ran squarely up against tho
charge today that a "pickpockets' trust"
I? operating with tho connivance of tho
police. Municipal Judge W. N. Gcmmlll
said that such a condition has existed
for years In Chicago and Municipal
Judge John It. Newcomer supported tho
chargo made by Gcmmlll.
"There are between 300 and 600 known
pickpockets in Chicago," said Judge
Gcmmlll. "Four lawyers defend them all.
They aro regularly hired by the organi
zation of pickpockets nnd three bonds
men seem to sign all the bonds for pick
pockets arrested.
"Every crook that 'plays the game
square' can get a bondsman without diffi
culty, but that's only the beginning of
the work of the pIckpockotB' trust. Com
plnlnlng witnesses often change their
testimony: and In ono case a woman was
oven Induced to replace a stolen pocket
book In her husband's coat to savo a
pickpocket from conviction.
"Some policemen aro profiting by tho
system. They are paid by tho organiza
tion, Just as Immoral women pay for pro
tection by tho police.
"Professional alibis, selection of friendly
Juries and things of that sort are well
known games with the pickpockets' or
ganization. Then they always havo
friends at tho City Hall to fall back on.
In courts whero I have been sitting I
havo Been nn assistant city prosecutor
nonsuit several cases at once after a
