Cooper nobin Cooper and John Sharpe who are chargid with the murder of former United Stntes Senator Carmack Attorneys for the defense have persistently opposed a speedy trial evldmtiy believing that their elic tits will fare better after public excitement hat? had time to die out It Is thought that self-defense will be the plea of the defendants rates la pare buncombe Is the opinion of Interstate Commerce Commissioner Franklin Lane today "Tho talk that is being made by a gentleman connected with tho Pacllic Mall company" said Lane that they have lost their Oriental trade by reason of the decision of the Interstate commission In the Cosmopolitan case is till a pretense yon may put as saying that It Is a pretense "1 dont see why it 13 that the people of tho Pacific roast cant got this mat ter straight In their minds 'Must Name Railroad's Share The commission decided In the cosmopolitan care and I wrote that do-chdon myself that the railroads and steamship lines could not make a rate from an Inland point to a foieign country as a single through rate hut that the railroads mast publish their share us a proportional rate As or instance on business between Chicago and Hongkong they must publish the proportional rate between Chicago and San Francisco That Is the only part over which we have jurisdiction If we allowed thorn simply to publish the thronghrute to the Orient they could beat us out on re bate cases Now I have ween quoted both Hil! and IlaTiman as saving that they had not lost ton of trade by that decision And yet there serais to be a sire to misstate the situation Why don't they do as the Canadian Pacific has done that Is publish a proportional rate from Inland points to Vancouver It does not have to be the same as the local rate I know that they tried to get the Canadian Pacific not to do that but to stand in with them when they deealreel that they would give up their Oriental shipments on account of the decision but the Cunadlan Pacific refused to do It Its all pure buncombe Wliat they are after Is a subsiely NATIONAL BOARD OF TRADE (Special to The Gazette) WASHINGTON January 19 Matters of interest affecting the business Interests of the country were considered' at tho opening session today of the National Board of Trade Several hundred delegatee- are in attendance representing commercial clubs and business mens organizations throughout the country The session will he concluded tomorrow Frank La Lanne of Philadelphia Is president of the body The demurrer all ges that the offenses charged against Signor were not committed In this county and that the local courts have no jurisdiction The motion to set aside the eight indictments are based upon three grounds First It Is charged that the grand jury was not projieriy empanelled but not much faith Is put In this for the legal standing cf the grand 1 i ry was competently passed upon during the consideration of the fight against the Indictment returned against Isabella Martin Other Charges A second charge against the legality of the indictments Is based on the allegation that the grand jury heard the evidence while parties were In the jury room who should not have been there Tho third charge Is prejudice on the part of members of the grand jury Attorney Church admits that at the present time he knows of no mem-bej- of the Inquisitorial body who was prejudiced against Signor bnt be considers it probable the wide publicity given the case had caused some member of the grand Jury to form an opinion upon the matter before it was officially presented fo the grand jury for consideration Following the filing of the demurrer and the motion Judge Brown continued the hearing until Saturday morning He Issued an order directing the nineteen members of the grand jury to apepar in court Saturday morning to answer the charge of prejudice At that lime the Jurors will be placed upon the witness stand and questioned regarding the feelings they held toward Signor rrlor to the time they commenced an Investigation of the evidence against him salt against hls wife which Lord Northland Is named as corespondent The proceedings today were of a preliminary character Imt some highly-spiced sensations are expected before the hearing is linlslud No Compiurmse There Is apparently no chance of settlement on of court because Mrs Stirling dt elans that she intents to ventilate her woi thoroughly and If possible shed lull light upon the beautiful Mrs Atherton's vivacious carter prior to mietlng Captain Stirling Mrs Stirling Is backed up by her mother the very determined Washingtonian who did not hesitate to visit Mrs Atherton the famous English beauty at her London residence and toll her what she thought of her It Is the gossip of Edinburgh that Captain Stirlin- formerly of the Scots Guards has told his friends that In the event he Is divorced he will niary Mrs Atherton Whether Lord Northland who Is also a guardsman and who Is the son nnd heir of the Earl of Ranftirly and who Is named as correspondent by Captain Stirling in hls counter suit will marry Mrs Stirling after she gets a divorce remains to be seen Possible Outcome It Is not Improbable thpt the Scotch court may condemn Mrs Atherton to pay Mrs Stifling heavy damagrs if the courts decision upholds Mrs Stirling ns both the Scottish and English courts often condemn correspondents to pay heavy damages for breaking up homes A Loudon court several years ago condemned a correspondent to pay an Injured husband $123000 There Is a 'popular impression In Edinburgh and London that Mrs Atherton is a poor woman To the contrary Mrs Atherton has an Income of $10000 a year derived from her mother's and stepmother's estates Society is very hopeful of seeing Mrs Atherton
