TOOK JAIL RATHER THAU OBEY COURT

Chicago Woman Refused to Testify and She Had Her Way About Matter. USED 5 MINUTES GIVEN DARED THE COURT TO PUNISH HER FOR CONTEMPT AND THE JUDGE HAD TO BACK UP ON HIS PEREMPTORY ORDER. . Publishers Press. Chicago, Dec. zl. Dr. E2e T. Lobdell, a woman physician in Chicago, openly defied the municipal court by refusing to testify in a case on hearing, and practically dared Judge Frank Crowe to send her to jail for contempt. s w The court gave Dr. Lobdell five minutes to pay a fine of $25 and apologize, or go to jail. She calmly remained in her seat till the five minutes expired, declaring her willingness to go to jail. When the five minutes were -up the Judge "found it impossible to send the woman to Jail without giving her opportunity to get full advice from her lawyer." She was given 24 hours to make her apology or to go to jail six months, but openly declared that she would refuse to obey the court's order, and that she would not appear in court. In an interview Dr. Lobdell said she lefured to testify becaus she was determined to begin a fight to force paymert to physicians of proper compensation for "expert testimony" in criminal cases, and incidentlly to set on foot a movement whereby physicians will be paid for services rendered to inmates of institutions not maintained by voluntary subscriptions. Miss Lobdell was subpoenaed to appear before Judge Crowe as a witness in the case of William Ludwig, charged with mistreating a girl eight years old.

Carter Makes His Annual Report, Showing that Army is Against Plan Now Much Discussed. Publishers- Press. Chicago, utc. -in Lis annual report Brigadier General William H. Carter, commander of the department of the lakes, speaks of a noticeable feeling of unrest among the officers of the regular army stationed within his department. The report says: "During the last year my attention has been attracted freuqently by what may be termed a serious spirit of unrest among officers, brought on mainly by public discussions of proposed measures of elimination and promotion by selection. However desirable may be the measures designed to bring about the selection of the best qualified for advancement or the preparation of promotion for those believed be unfit for further coommand, the army is certainly against their enact ment. The impression has been forced on me that the officers as a body, particularly those of the line, while recognizing the desirability of providing promotion for exceptionally meritorious men, are unwilling to trust their careers to boards of officers who, of necessity, must base their conclusions on personal acquaintance or efficiency reports, which latter are not regarded as accurate indexes of either character or Qualifications."
