GOVERNORS APPOINT A COMMITTEE TO
INVESTIGA TE FARM CREDITS IN EUROPE\
IKE
WASHINGTON, D. c„ Doc. 14.—A
deluge of Impassioned oratory swept the
Hoiwa for four hours today during gen-
eral debate on the Dillingham-Burnett
Mil tixing h,. Ut#»»cy test for immigrants
to tho United States. The measure was
htought u.p in the House after a fight on
a spedal rule brought in from the Com-
mittee on Rules, which was adopted on
a roll call vote by an overwhelming ma-
jority, despite complaints of "gag rule"
from the opponents of the bill. After
four hours of discussion the House ad-
journed with the bill still pending. It
will be taken up next week.
Tho field day of speechmaking was
opened by Representative Burnett of Al-
abama, In charge of tho bill. He attacked
th« class of Immigrants now coming to
this country, and declared that the liter-
ary test was demanded by labor organiza-
tions and fanners' organizations because
"they don't want the spittoons of Europe
admitted into this country."
Mr. Burnett argued that the influx of
European immigrants cheapened Amer-
ican la.bor.
An appeal. for the passage of the bill
was made by Representative Martin Dies
of Texas. 'He proclaimed that tho power
at »flW-governm«nt lies In Intelligence.
SEE NO REMEDY FOR EVJU
Representative Moore of Pennsylvania,
In charge of the opposition to the bill,
•aid the bill would not accomplish the
object for which it was framed.
"¥au shut the doors to the uneducated
because their poverty lias held them back
and at the same time you say to the
blackhand, the scamp, the anarchist, the
fellow who reads inflammatory and dead-
ly literature, 'Conic in, we need vou ' "
Representative Curley of Massachu-
setts, opposing the bill, called on the
shades of Dante, Petrarch, Michacl An-
geio and half a hundred other ancients
of fame with tongue-twisting names to
witness the intellectual qualities of the
native of Southern Europe. Discussing
the criminal tendencies of immigration,
be said:
"I can see no difference between the
much-cited blackhand outrages of the
North and the lynching bees of the
South."
CABJ5L POWERS SNUB BED.
Representative Powers 6f Kentucky,
who had spoken supporting the bill, en-
deavored to Interrupt Representative
Curley.
"I would yield to the gentleman," said
Mr. Curley with some asperity, "If I
thought it would add to the sum total
»f human knowledge, but i do not."
Uncle Joe Cannon made a speech op-
posing the bill and was answered by
Representative Dalzcll of Pennsylvania,
puce a devoted supporter of the former
Speaker, who pointed out that the issue
had temporarily destroyed party lines.
An attempt was made to secure an
agreement to vote on the bill at a nl;ht
lesslou tonight, but a threatened filibus-
ter forced an adjournment until Monday.,

United States Attorney Gives Notice
of Appeal—Questions of Personal
Liberty and Power of the
President Involved in the
Case, Says Judge.
The Express Austin Bnreau.
AUSTIN, Tex., Dec. 14.—la a decision
in which he attributes to the Presideat
of the United States the unlawful ex-
ercise of power, J'ederal Judge T. S.
Maxey this afternoon ordered the re-
lease from custody of Col. Pnscusl
Orozco Sr. and Gen. David de la Fuente,
who since November 1.1 have been de-
tained at Fort Sam Houston by order
of the Secretary of War directed by the
President. All contentions made by rela-
tors that they are guilty of a crime
against the laws of the United States,
and that they are charged with no of-
fense, are sustained by the court. Judge
Maxey's conclusions In hrief are as fol-
lows ;
1. The President was without lawful
power to order the arrest and Imprison-
ment of the relator.
2. The order Issued hy his direction
for such arrest was inoperative and vohl.
8. The relator, being illegally re-
strained of his liberty by the military
authorities, Is entitled to be released.
BAIL OF $2,BOO GRANTED,
"It Is therefore the order of the court
that he he discharged from custody upon
entering Into recognizance in the sum of
l£2,500, with surety, as prescribed by rule
34 of the Supreme Court, for appearance
to answer the Judgment of the Appellate
Court,"
United States District Attorney C. A.
Boynton gave notice of appeal. .1. I1'.
Welters of Houston was present ss coun-
sel for Colonel Orozco and Qeueml de
la S'ueute. The appeal gees straight to
tjie Supreme Court.
Judge Maxey disclaims any intention
of imputing to the President the pur-
pose or desire to usurp powers not law-
fully confined to the chief magistrate of
the United States. He says in his deci-
sion :
"The court is mindful of the fact thot
the decision of this case attributes to ttie
President the unlawful exercise of power.
But in view of his eminence as a Jurist
and his well known devotion to the lawti
of the country aud to the principles
of constitutional liberty, the writer lakes
pleasure in disclaiming any intention of
Imputing to that distinguished official
the purpose or desire to usurp powers
not lawfully confided to the chief magis-
trate of tbe Union. That he has earn-
estly and persistently endeavored to en-
force the neutrality statutes aud thus to
preserve amicable relations with our sis-
ter republic, is known to all men, aud
that, in ordering the arrest and impris-
onment of the relator, he was actuated
by the high motive to faithfully ex-
ecute the laws, the writer readily admits.
But these considerations should not af-
fect the determination of legal questions.
The relator has appealed to the court, to
set him free, and if he Is Illegally re-
strained of his liberty that appeal should
not be in vain."
CASE INVOLVES MUCH.
Judge Maxey says that while the duty
has devolved upon him, during- a long
period of judicial service, to decide many
grave and important questions, he has
not been called upon to determine one
of more delicacy than that now submit-
ted for consideration. Broadly speaking,
he says, the question Involves, on the one
hand, personal liberty; ou the other, the
power of the President, in the exercise
of Ills constitutional functions, to re-
strict that liberty. In finding a solu-
tion of the problem thus presented the
court, has given anxious thought, and
Judge Maxey says to enuble him to reach
a satisfactory conclusion all available
sources of information have been con-
sulted.
Colonel Orozco and General de la
Fueute probably will not be releused
from custody before next Tuesday, as
their bonds must be sent here for ap-
proval.
Colonel Wolters, attorney for Colonel
Orozco, commenting on Judge Maxey's
decision, said:
"Judge Maxey's opinion is the ablest
exposition of the constitutional rights of
individuals that has been rendered by
any court in this Nation in the past
fifty years, in fact, since the cases were
decided by tbe Supreme Court of the
United States nrlstug out of the war be-
tween the States,"
THIS POWER GIVEN NO ONE.
The following is a synopsis of Judge
Maxey's decision:
"The power to arrest without warrant
and to deprive the Individual of ids lib-
erty without due process of law," savs
the decision, "has no existence in this
countrv. It lias not been committed to
any official, howe/er high his station, nor
to any department ot the Government,
either executive, legislative or judicial.
Every department must act in obedience
to the mandates of the Constitution. No
one of them may usurp powers forbidden
by that instrument and none of them
may perform acts in violation of its com
mands. When, therefore, -in individual
is arrested without warrant, in disregard

French Sleuths Search in Vain for
"Mary Barnes." Who Shot
Walter Mum in.
PARIS, Dec. 14,—The whereabouts ot
"Mrs. Mary Barnes," who shot and
wounded Walter Munim, the well-known
French sportsman, and was herself
wounded, according to reports, are still
a mystery tonight. Efforts of Paris de-
tectives to find her and discover how
seriously she was wounded, if at all, have
been unsuccessful.
M. Bochard, the investigating mag-
istrate, has ordered the search for the
woman to be continued, as she had been
iormally charged with wounding Mumm.
The Mumm family maintains the greatest
reticence and today left the residence in
the Avenue du Bois de Boulogne for
Rheims, to avok: further questioning.
The valet employed In the house, wnrre
"Mrs. Barnes" lived, has informed the
police that early Thursday morning he
heard "Mrs. Barnes" cry:
"You're killing her.''
The disturbance ceased a moment later.
At 8 o'clock in the morning Mumm's
brother arrived and took the injured
man away in an automobile.
"Mrs. Barnes" remained in tho house
throughout the day. Several persons call-
ed, including three doctors which seemed
to indicate thot she too, had been In-
jured. Early Friday morning Mumm's
brother returned to the house and took
away in a cab a woman closely muffled
up. It is supposed the woman was "Mrs.
Barnes."
Tlie police are now trying to find the
driver of tills cab with the object of as-
certaining the destination of the couple.
They are also trying to find "Mrs.
Barnes' " cook and maid, both of whom
apparently have left the city.

NEW YORK, Dee. 14.—George W.
Wlckersliani, Attorney General of the
United States, In discussing the theory
of constitutional government as appi'ed
to this country from the beginning to
the present time at the dinner of tho
Pennsylvania Society of New York, to-
night, entreated reformers to consider
carefully the causes of their discontent
and to ascertain "whether the evils may
not be cured without the destruction of
cherished institutions.
"Constiutlon tinkering is the inevitabls
result of reducing constitutions to the
category of statutes," said Mr. Wickar-
sham in discussing the rapid extension
of the Swiss institutions, such as the
initiative and referendum, the recall of
officials by popular vote and other prin-
ciples of like character.
REFORM CAN'T BE IGNORED.
Tendencies favored by what he termed
the "new school of political thought"
cannot be Ignored, he said, "because too
many people have given their adherence
in some degree to them and it becomes
the patriotic duty of every citizen to
analyze carefully the causes of the dis-
content with the existing system of gov-
ernment, which led to the adoption ot
these modifications in our constitutional
scheme as remedies necessary to the
public welfare In the eyes of those who
have advocated them, and to endeavor,
if possible, to meet those evils without
destroying a fabric of government which 1
has so long and so well served the needs '
of American civilization."
Mr. Wlckersham dealt with the sub-
ject of "machine rule" in politics, which
he said was given as the cause of evil
by one of the principal exponents ot the
now movement back of the demand for
the initiative, referendum, recall, Im-
perative mandate, direct election of Sen-
ators, etc.
"All of the evils of machine rule are
perfectly susceptible of correction wilhin
the scope of tlie Constitution and with-
out altering its principles," he said. "The
evils of machine rule arose largely by
reason of the apathy of the individual
voter and the dormant condition of tho
public conscience. It was because rea-
sonable and practicable reforms in party
government were denied by those who
profited by it that the extreme changes
in our governmental system have been
so enthusiastically adopted.
SUSCEPTIBLE OF REMOVAL.
"It is, I think, safe to say that every
one of the evils of modern politics is sus-
ceptible of removal within the limits of
our established forms of constitutional
government without destruction of its
representative republican character. Bui
the needed reforms cannot be accom-
plished and perpetuated on ono hand by
any short cut to political happiness such
as reformers, eager for popular applause,
would suggest; nor, on the other hand,
without abandonment by every citizen of
that apathy which results in the face of
even a clamorous public campaign, in
less than a majority of the electorate
voting upon propositions to radically
change the fundamental law of a
State."

Peace ronferei;.ti-.Associated Pres'
has gathered from the representatives of I
the Balkan kingdoms and the foroni.»st|
Turkish delegates ai; authoritative decla-
ration of the terms which the victorious ]
kingdoms propose to enforce and the
Ottoman views thereon.
Like experienced diplomatists, all tha I
Balkan dek-tiates, in speaking officially i
adhere to the watchword adopted in the]
first and probabi. tlie last preliminary [
meeting before entering the conference,
that they ar- "in complete accord an41
have established a perfectly united pro-
gramme to follow."
When the;.- -peak with friends, ihh for!
quotation, their faces light up with tlie<r j
enthusiasm and their faith is admirable.
"Tell the Americans," they say, "that
wo trust in their sympathy and moral !
support, as we are fighting desperatMH
and Bheddiiag our best blool for the same ■
cause which rendered the nam- of Wash-
ington glorious and ven. inter We are

BALK PROCRASTINATION POLICY.
Tho determination of the Balkan state*]
not to allow an ottoman policy of pro-
crastination is significant on aeci int oi
the form which it has manifested.
"The Turks are much mistaken," slid
one of the chief delegates, "if they m
tertaln such iju idea. Peace will practi-
cally be concluded between Christmas
and New Year around the diplomatic
table in St. James' Palace, or we will im-
pose it In Constantinople at Easter under
the range of our camion and at the point
of our bayonets. But tli" conditions then
will bo very different. Now we are sat-
isfied with the minimum demands; then
wo will exact the maximum."
The main conditions of the allies in-
clude the immediate surrender of Scutari,
Adrianople and Janina, the garrisons of
which will be granted full military hon-
ors; the evacuation of Eastern Europe by .
Turkey as iar as East Tchatalja to a

tracting parties will delimit on the spot;
the cession to Greece of all the Aegean
islands, including Rhodes and eleven oth-
ers, which Italy is keeping as a pledga
of Turkish fulfillment ot the treaty of
Lausanne; tho annexation of Crete to
Greece aud the xiai ment of a war indem-
nity and the expenses sustalneo.
AMNESTY TO MUSSULMANS.
In return the allies will grant complete
ainuestj to the Mussulman population iu
the territories tliey annex tor any acts
of hostility during the war; ilie return
of all prisoners; the recogniliou of the
spiritual sovereignty of the Sultan over
Ottomans becoming subjects of tlie llal-
|tun States and the tree administration

in the Balkans.
