Effect of Child Labor Law. At a meeting of the Consumers" League, held at the Business Women's Club yesterday morning at 11 o'clock, several important topics were acted upon. Among them was the Inaug uration of what is to be known as a scholarship fund, which was suggested at the convention of the International Consumers' League, hefd in Louisville last year, by its secretary, Mrs. Florence Kelly. The scholarship fund is for the benefit of -widowed mothers who are dependent upon the labor of their children for support.

It contemplates that in the event of the passage that laws now being championed by the Consum ers' League prohibiting child labor when the child is under fourteen years of- age and making education compulsory, prove a (hardship in cases of extreme poverty, the fund is to be a reserve from which widowed mothers may draw a stipend equal in amount to the wages her children were making while at work. It is the intention of the league to establish the fund at once and the members will ask all societies and organizations to contribute. Mrs. R. P.

Halleck stated last night that the organization has every reason to believe it will meet with the approval of the general public and that the scholar- ship fund will grow rapidly when its uujccl is unueiaiuou. Other discussions were those of "Child Labor and Compulsory Education," and "Consumers' League Labeled Goods," by Miss Eleanor Tarrant and Miss Lilla Breed. The election of officers resulted In the old roster, which is as follows, be ing chosen unanimously: Mrs, R. P. Halleck, president; Mrs.

J. B. Judali, Mrs. James Buchanan, Dr. Julia A.

In gram, Mrs. Samuel Harper and Miss bnrah DuPont, vice presidents; Mrs. Jouett Singleton, recording secretary: Miss Lilla Breed, corresponding secretary; Mrs. L. A.

Morris Bel knap and Mrs. Robert Worth Bingham were chosen as additional vice presl-dents. KNEISEL QUARTET PLEASES AUDITORS. "Woman's Club Building Well Filled With Thecal ers of Music. A large audience greeted the JCnefsel Quartet a.t the Woman's Club la.st evening.

mMMMMMMm Bailey, of Texas, Charges That the President Violated Plain Law of Country and cf Nations Excuse That Canal Was Demanded By Progress and Civilization Old Argument of Kings and Conquerors "Would Retire From Public Life Rather Than Tote To Ratify Treaty. NOBLE AND RINGING WORDS. Senator Bailey dictated th followir.c to tb-e Washington of the iro-osioii, Texas, Post: "The last Congress enacted a law directing the President to construct an cacal. That law provided that if Colombia would rant certain concessions to this Government the canal should be constructed across the Isthmus of Panama. it also provided that If these necessary concessions could not be obtained from Colombia the President should then proceed to acquire, through negotiations with Nicaragua and Oosta Rico, tiie right to construct the canal over what is known as the Nlearaguan route.

"The enactment of that law with this contingent preference for Panama was procured through the President's Influence with the Senators of his own party and without his Interference Congress would not have reversed its repeatedly expressed preference for the Nlcaraguan route. Even the President's Influence could not have prevailed over the former had his friends not embodied in the law the alternative provision providing for the construction of the Nlcaraguan Canal In the event Colombia refused us the right to construct the Panama Canal. That law is Imperative and still in force and under it the plain duty of the President when the Colombian Government rejected the treaty was to enter upon negotiations with the Governments of Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Such a negotiation was merely matter of form because a protocol between those Governments and the United States was already in existence granting to us every concession necessary for the speedy construction and perpet-ual maintenance of the canal. "But in absolute and reckless disregard of the imperative command of a law which he had himself approved the pose to the American Congress the possible seizure of Panama, thus adding to his flagrant defiance of our law, a serious violation of all international law.

"It seems, however, that his more conservative advisers shrank from this bold determination to wrest from a neighboring and friendly republic territory which is rightfully owned, and as a less desperate measure they encouraged the secession of Panama from Colombia. "If the Panama route were the only one over which an lnteroceanic canal could be constructed. I would not even then be willing to take it from its lawful and rightful owner by force and fraud; because I do not believe that it is any more honest for a strong nation to rob or cheat a weaker neighbor than it is for a strong man to rob or cheat a weaker brother. But while this would be my position, I can understand how many people in their extreme anxiety for a canal might condone such a course, and might excuse the spoliation upon the ground that it was demanded tjy the progress ana civilization or tne world. "Tills Is precisely the same argu- ment with which kings and conquerors have always justified their wars of plunder and aggression, and I had hoped that It would never be successfully employed with the American people.

"But the Panama route is not the only cne, nor is it the best one. Leaving Colombia master of her own destiny and in the undisturbed possessslon of her territory, we could have found another and a better route through countries which would have welcomed our enterprise. "The Nicaragua route is more than 400 miles shorter than the Panama route, and the sanitary conditions are incomparably more favorable. "No engineer of respectable attainments and reputation has ever questioned the feasibility of the Nlcaraguan route, while several men eminent in that profession have expressed the gravest doubt as to the success of a canal across the Isthmus of Panama. "I have heard It asserted that the people of this country desire a canal, and are not particular about the methods by which they secure it.

cannot believe that this is true of the American people generally, and I know that it is not true as to the Democrats of Texas. "While they are steadfast In their advocacy of a canal connecting the two oceans, they want that great wors prosecuted from the beginning to the end In an honorable and patriotic way. A3 much as they favor a canal. I do not buppvo thnt thpv desire their Senators to obtain it by voting to sanction the President's willful defiance of our law, and his reckless disregard of interna-! law. "Thp which wme times -t0 us that the President, having done the wrong, we ought to treat it as a closed incident, and ratify the treaty, not commend itself either to my judgment or to my conscience.

If the President has done wrong. I shall not Ji "i SE not bring myself to believe that I ought to denounce the thief, and then vote to accent the stolen goods. whIc'h 'the president's course will do the country in The estimation of ''We can no longer stand in the par- liament of the nations and contend for what Is lawful and right purely for the salt-? of law and justice. "Forfeiting our right to he regarded by nations as derirlng always to know the right, and to do it, is of itself and alcne a serious Injury" to this republic; but that is by no means the vvvic-le extent to which we must suffer from this episode. Its effect upon the minds of our own people is being illustrated every day by the argument that we want the canal and we wiil no: stop to consider the morality of the means by which we obtain it.

here will this argument end? "Every Intelligent man must know that Its Infection must at least poison mind of the individual citizen, and many will follow the example of the Government in taking what they want without reference to how they get It. "If the President of the United States can defy our own laws, and trample upon the rights of other nations, what answer will apologists make to the Innocent and turbulent element of society when they defy the law and invade the rights of their fellow citizen, "Will the Government imprison them for doing toward their fellow citizens exactly what the Government Itself has done toward others? "I have heard it said that Democratic Senators are making a political mis ike in the ratification of th tnv.ty. I do not believe it. My judg-i m'-nt is that in this case, in nli other it is politics defr-d pcund iple--. The Democratic party couM find no better fighting ground that which hns hern offered it.

"Let us denounce the President'' de-iiance of the law: lt us accus-" him for violation of tho I.v.v of and pi rr- i -e 1 ve 1 1 re A'oi'M to treat vcry weak and friendly TKiLtkbcr with the same con si I ration and jtisiire that we would the mo5t powerful and warlike nation in world. I believe thore are the 5en-: iments cf Texas Democrats: and would retire from public Hfr- before dishonor my Ftate and party by i that they entertain ether and i different Fentimer.tr." I W. E.

Davis and Harry J. Powers, managers of the Iroquois Theater, today appeared before a Coroner's jury to tell about the Iroquois fire of December 30, when 572 persons were killed. Neither of" the men was disposed to accept any responsibility in connection with defective construction, faults of management or neglect to provide proper fire protection. Mr. Powers placed responsibility for the management of the theater on Mr.

Davis, who was active manager, while he was but passive in the conduct ot the theater's affairs. The blame for the fire and the consequent loss of life he put on employes who, he said, did not perform their full duty. Mr. Davis refused to place the blame on any particular person, but said he had had confidence that the employes of the theater would attend to their business properly, and he also believed that the Fuller Construction Company would erect the building In compliance with the city ordinances. He said he knew nothing of what the laws demanded in the construction of a theater, although he had been managing theaters in Chicago for twenty years: He had a general knowledge of what was necessary, but he had never read the city laws governing the construction and operation of theaters.

Mr. Davis said the theater company was a New Jersey corporation, registered with the Secretary of State of Illinois, to empower it to do business in Illinois. mm Powers' Story. Harry J. Powers said he was a stockholder, director and treasurer of the Iroquois Theater Company, and associate manager of the theater with Will J.

Davis. In a general way he -wiis Identified with the preparation of the plans for the theater. He approved them as a layman and interested party. He referred to consideration given the plans at Klaw Erlanger's New York office. Klaw Erlanger were interested stockholders, he aAd, and also pa.ssed upon and approved the plans.

Mr. Powers told the Coroner's jury that the reason the Iroquois Theater had no fire apparatus wis because the house fireman. Sailers, had not ordered it. It was Sailers' business, he enld, to provide such things. Sailers was thexe for such purposes, and had come recommended by Assistant Chief Campion, of the Fire Department Mr.

Powers also placed responsibility on the Fuller Construction Company, which, he. said, was supposed to bo constructing the building according to law. The theatrical manager declared that Business Manager Noonan, Stage Carpenter Cummings and Chief Usher Dusenber-ry were intrusted vrtfh looking after details. Mr. Powers then told the Jury that he did nothing toward procuring or seeing that there was installed in the theater anything that could be used for protection against fire.

"I understood that those orders were given by Mr. Davis," he said. Mr. Powers also did not know, he said, whether there -werei signs over the exits on The opening day. Since the fire he had understood there were no signs over the exits.

He knew the lavv required such signs, he said, but as associate manager of the theater he felt that the matter was in -the hands of the Fuller Construction Company, and that everything proper would be put in. The theater had been occupied for several weeks before the fire, he said, but he did not really know why through those weeks that the exit signs were not in place. He supposed the placing of exit signs, he testified a moment later, was part of the contract for painting. OF STARVATION LEONID AS ETTBBABD, DIED IK WILDS CF LABPwADOH. REMAINS 01 WAY TO QUE3EC.
