NEW YORK, May 17.—The placing on
trial today in Newark. N. J., of Miss
Virginia Wardlaw, M b. Caroline R. Mar-
tin and Mrs. Mary Snead, charged Jointly
with the murder of re. Ocey W. Snead,
marks the beginning of another chapter
In the now famous "bath tub" mystery,
one of the most baffling eases in the
criminal annals of the east.
The eurioun manner in which the
•autlful young woman met her death,
ie fact that the three defendants are
s aters and members of an old southern
family, and that one Is the mother, and
the other two the aunts of the victim,
all have combined to arouse an unusual
degree of Intertst. To this will I add-
ed a mass of weird and uncanny evi-
dence that will he presented by the pros-
ecution at the tfial to attempt to show
that these three old women were re-
itpor.sible for tin? death of young Mrs.
Snead, and that this co u-blooded crime
was committed In order that they might
obtain the'132.000 insurant") on the vie-
tl'ms life.
Evidence Circumstantial.
Although the prosecution has a mass
of Incriminating evidence, it Is purely
circumstantial and the case hinges on the
question of whether tho suicide note
found pinned to Ocey Sneads clothes on
the morning her body was discovered in
the bath tub, Is r Is not a forgery Since
their Incarceration tho old women have
not written a letter of any kind with the
exception of a note which was addressed
to the Methodists, In which the. appealed
for aid. Their note was signed "The
Wardlaw Sisters."
The history of the Snead rase, as It is
railed, bears out the old adage that
"truth Is stranger than fiction "

EARTH PASSES THROUGH
COMET'S TAIL WEDNESDAY
SAX JOSE, Calif.. May 17.—Director
Campbell, of the Lick observatory, to-
day gavd out the following statement:
"Halley's comet was ninetv degrees
long at daybreak this morning, both
as photographed and as observed by
the naked eye, This corresponds to a
length of 24,000,000 miles. The near-
est point of the comet was eleven mil-
lion mlks from the earth. Wednes-
day morning it will be a little over
two million miles and Wednesdav ev-
ening the earth will be passing
through its tail. The present diam-
eter of the tail at the point through
which the earth will be nassed is a
little over 1,000,000 miles. The two
bodies will have a relative velocity of
about forty three miles per second;
and the time required for the passage.
If the present dimensions remain un-
changed. will be six or seven hours.

There are only a few cases of Im-

of the territorial cases bad been dis
posed of by the supreme court before
the criminal court was created.
The most important cases are those

Mysterious Visitors.
"It is true comets are the most mys-
terious bodies in the skv and many
important questions concerning their
origin and constitution remain un-
answered. We do know, however, tho
tails are so attenuated that the most
perfect laboratory vacuum Is extreme-
ly dense in comparison. It Is probable
that both minute solid particles and
isolated gas molecules are present In
the tails, the proportion of solid par-
ticles to gas molecules, vary^jg in dif-
ferent comets. It seems to he a con-
servative estimate that there is not
more than one particle or molccule,
microscopic in size, on the average per
cubic yard. The earth's atmosphere
will form a perfect protecting blanket
against all possible constituents of
the tail.
Moon To Spoil View.
"It is very unfortunate that the
moon, nearlv full, will interfere with
optical observations of the phenomena
attending our passing through the tail
If the moon were absent there is little
doubt we fh >uld be able to see the
right sky faintly illuminated by that
part of the tail which projects be-
yond the earth. Because of the possi-
b'e and probable lagging of the tail,
there i< a chance we may still be in
the tail the latter part of Wednesday
night and some evidence of its pres-
ence may bee seen in the short inter-
val between moonset and dawn It is
not expected the event will be at-
tended by an extensive meteoric dls-
pla.v There probably will be no more
• .cteors observable on Wednesday
than on other nights.
Aurora# May Apoear.
"It would not be surprising if tel-
egraph transmission were interfered
with as is the case when strong au-
rorae are present in the sky It is not
impossible that delicate apparatus will
be able to detect magnetic variations
due to the presence of electrified eom-
etarv particles in the highest strata
of the earth's atmosphere There
might even ho an aurora of consider-
able Intensity, due to the electrically
charged particles visible to the eye or
made apparent by observations of its

YOUNO DOUBIS
REFLECTS ON TAYLOR, TOO
In Answer to the Alternative Writ
of Mandamus Bank Commis-
sioner Says to Disclose Colum-
bia Bank and Trust Co. Affairs
Would Be Disastrous.
Hank Commissioner A. M. Young
through his attorneys, Ledbetter, Stu-
art and Bel! of Oklahoma City, yester-
day fll -u his answer to the alternative
writ of mandamus issued in the su-
preme court directing Young to shqw
cause why he should not be mandain-
ured to permit State Fxaminer and
Inspector Charles A. Taylor to ex-
amine the books and records of the
defunct Columbia bank and trust com
pany of Oklahoma Citv.
Young In his answer not only ques-
tions the authority of the state ex
aminer to examine his office but de
clares that he does not possess th
qualifications to examine me affair3
of a bank.
The answer states that tl/e exam-
.iner and his deputies arc jiftid put of
state funds and that the receipts of
the bank commissioner's office are
from private revenues derived from
the banks, and that the bank commis-
sioner does not handle public funds
and is not therefore subject to exam-
ination of the state examiner and In-
spector.
The answer further states that the
Columbia Hank and Trust company Is
being liquidated under the supervision
of the district courts of neck and
Oklahoma counties, and that they
have directed that no final statement
be made public until the affairs of tho
defunct institution are liquidated for
the reason that to disclose the names
of persons indebted to the bank at this
time would throw a number of good
men into bankruptcy and make a large
amount of the assets of the bank
w orthless.
An examination by the state exam-
iner and inspector would bring about
such publicity, the answer declares.

Constitutionality of Proposed
' Amendment Settled — Gover-
nor s Attitude Interpreted to Be
Aimed at Ross' Candidacy.
It became evident here yesterday
that there will b« no election for the
adoption of high license and local op-
tion to replace prohibition in Oklaho-
ma unless Governor Haskell is com-
pelled by mandamus of the supreme
court of the state to issue the procla-
mation. Governor Haskell has stated
to friends that he will not call an
election upon local option petitions
until the question of the constitution-
ality of the proposed amendment to
the constitution is established.
Attorneys have advised the prohi-
bitionists that the governor cannot be
legally forced to witness the detaching
of the signatures to the uetitions or
call tlie election, as no mandamus
action in the courts of Oklahoma
would lie against him. Therefore, they
believe the governor is secure in his
position and that the "antis" must
have the constitutionality of their
proposed amendment tested and sus-
tained if they would have an election
proclamation issued.
Governor Haskell has allied himself
with the prohibitionists of the state
from the start and takes his present
position In pursuit of this policy.
The governor's attitude is also in-
terpreted to be aimed at the candi-
dacy of Leslie P. Rose, of Lawton, the
antl-prohibitlon 'and anti-administra-
tion candidate for governor. If the
local proposition were voted on at the
primary election or at the general
election, Ross might be swept into th"
governor's chair upon a wave of local
option sentiment. If the anti-prohl-
bitionists can be forced to test the
constitutionality of their amendment
in the courts the matter would not be
finally disposed of in time to assist
Rcss In his candidacy.
Ross, ac insurgent leader in thrr
house, was most bitter in his at- I
tacks upon Governor Haskell and his'
entire administration, although one of
the old line and staunch Democrats of
the state.

Rrandeis, Mr Lawler wa referred ti
various requests for the document and

attorney general had sent to Secretary
Balllnge, through the committee. Mr
Lawler had informed the secretary In
each instance that he had supplied
all the matter hearing on the Glavls

Burned Original Draft.
Mr. Lawler said he had burned the
original draft of the memorandum.
"I was confident." he said, "th&t
'gum shoe' men lad been on my trail
for months and I knew there were i
depths of degradation to which th
would not stoop. I was afraid some
cne in the office might be corrupted
as Kerby has been corrupted."
Asked who he thought were behind
the "gum shoe men" Mr. Lawler de-
clared dramatically;
• James R. Garfield, GilTord Pinchot
Norman Hapgood, a man named Con-
nolly, and that man there."
"You mean Rrandeis?"
"Yes" ho came in later. "He's the
flower of that foul flock."
Uproar and Hissing.
This reference to the champions oC
conservation caused an uproar among
the spectators most of whom were
women and there was some hissing.
The witness said he gave two copies
of his memorandum to the president's
secretary and one to the attorney gen-
eral and had not given one to Sec-
retary Rallinger He proceed the or-
iginal which he said he had obtained
from the white house Saturday morn-
ing.
Confidential letters which' passed
between Secretary Rallinger and R. P
Thompson, city engineer of Seattle
last spring and summer, were road by
Stenographer Kerby to bear out his
contention that Thompson was not a
fit man to be director of the recla-
mation service. He said he had men-
tioned to Mr. Rrandeis at Pinchot'i
home hero last February that Bal-
linger had intended to supplant Di-
rector Xewell with Thomson ever
since he became Secretary. The letters
were furnished the committee in re-
sponse to a request by Mr. Rrandeis
The letters related to a trip to Al-

and resumed his cross examination.
