WHALEN
ARRESTED
AGAIN

Michael whalen, who was arrested In
Pawtucket for the third time for viola
ton Of the barber law last night, was In
court this morning and pleaded not
guilty. His case was set down for trial
tomorrow morning at a. m.
The state board of BARRIERS examiners
revoked this mans license several weeks
ago and the police have found him doing
business at the shop just the same. On
the occasion OF his first arrest he was
fined one cent and costs and the second
time the fine imposed was $50 and costs.
whalen has an appeal pending In the
supreme court and he claims the right TO
work TIL the court has said whether the
commission revoked his license rightfully
or not
The point made by the examiners Ia
that their action in revoiing certificates
is a provision for the public good and
that the shop should be closed so there
would be no chance to spread contagion
X there was any.
so far from being feared by the appeals
from its decisions the board is keeping
right on revoking certificates, where they
consider IL necessary and there are three
men cited TO appear before them Friday
and show cause II they can. why their IL
censes should not be revoked.
The men are Gartem Alba OF lis Pine
street his assistant Natal Salirt and n
colored man. William Hyarms OF 3se
Weybosset street. The two former must
explain about using soiled towels and the
latter has that and the running hot and
cold water rules TO comply with, the
commissioners say.

Delaney Nichor or this city was in con-
ference with several members OF the
Democratic national committee with a
view 10 bringing about Mr.. Gorman's ac-
ceptance OF the chafrmanship.
II was said that number OF New York
business men were willing 10 guarantee
7 the raising Of a geea sized fund fer the
expenses OF the campaign II Mr.. German
could be prevailed upon 10 act as chair
man.
Friends OF Thomas Taggart declared
that they were not I'm the least disturbed
by the efforts TO bring ont German. John
w. Kern, who has had charge OF Tag
gart's interests said that an attempt TO
elect German now would result in his de-
feat. as the Tnsgart men had the votes
to elect the Indiena man and would GER
tainly elect him Mr.. Kern added that no
verbal assurances that Judge Parker
wanted some man, other than Taggart
for chairman would go" with them as
they had verbal assurances that Parker
would not interfere or attempt to dictate
TO the committee
Judge Parker will have to come in
person." he said, Ito convince us that he
does not want Taggart for chairman"
There were busy scenes today around
the rooms occupied by former Senator
Hill. While Mt. Sheehan and others
sought Senator German and urged him to
stand for the chairmanship Mr.. Hill re
mafned In his room. He said the head OF
the committee was a great responsibility
and he did not feel like forcing a man 10
undertake the duties when so much de-
pended upon IL.
At the same time. Mr. Hill has been
subjected to the pressure from New York
men to secure German 20 manage the
campaign IL that is possible.
All efforts to prevail upon Senator Cor
man 10 accept the chairmanship proved
futile. The national committee began its
meeting therefore with the knowledge
that the Marylander must be eliminated.
The committee had begun In session but
a short time when Thomas Taggart OF
Indiana was elected chairman.
Urey Woodson OF Kentucky. was elect
ed secretary.
An effort was made 10 elect an as
sfstant secretary In the interest OF Ed
win Sefton of the District Of Columbia
but after brief discussion the committee
decided that the secretary should be free
TO choose his own assistants.
John l. Martin OF Missouri was elected
sergeant-at-arms. and Samuel Donaldson

ERRED IN
GRANTING
N0NSUIT

The appellate court In an opinion hand
ed down today in the case of William
Hutchinson vs.. Waiter l.. Clarke. city
treasurer. over-rules the trial Judge and
declares the granting OF non-suit was
NOT proper in the case.
Judge Tillingisast, who writes the
opinion OF the court. says: Whether the
highway in question was reasonably safe
and convenient for travellers, under the
statute. at the point where the accident
happened was not a question OF law for
the trial court to pass upon under the
evidence submitted, but was a question
OF fact for the Jury. To have warranted
the court I'm directing a verdict for the
defendant, II must have clearly appearel.
s, clearly that the court could say as
n matter OF law either that the defendant
was not negligent, or that. the plaintiff
was guilty OF negligence which con-
tributed TO the accident. And we do not
think that either OF these propositions
was sufficiently clear 10 warrant the court
in taking such action"
"It appeared in evidence that n sewer
had recently been constructed in said
highway by the city, and considerable
evidence was offered 10 show that two
OF the wheels OF the wagon on which the
plaintiff was riding, suddenly sank into
the ground TO a depth OF two or three
feet at point Immediately over where
some part OF the sewer trench had been
dug, one witness 'testifying that II was
at the place where the sheathing used in
the construction OF said sewer had been
pulled out.
"In view OF such testimony we cannot
say that the jury would not have been
warranted in finding that said sewer
was not properly constructed, notwith-
standing the evidence offered by the de-
fendant 10 the contrary"
Judge Douglas In brief concurring
opinion believes there was conflict OF
testimony but agrees that the case was
one for the jury. New trial granted
plaintiff.

The only act OF violence reported to the
police as having occurred during the
night was the stoning OF the Arkwright
and Davis mills. Several windows were
broken but no other damage WAS done.
NO PROSPECT OF PEACE.
The members OF the state board OF ar
bitration having left town last night
without interviewing the labor secreta-
Yfes, there seems 10 be no immediate
prospect OF any proposal to settle the diff
ncuities by arbitration. Indeed the opera
tives are so determined In their decision
TO resist the wage reduction TO the end
that there is little possibility OF their con-
senting TO such an arrangement.
The mill owners apparently are Just as
frrn today IN their position, which is
that they cannot afford to keep the mills
in operation without reducing wages ow-
ing to the condition OF the cloth and cot
ton markets
The situation. therefore. was practically
unchanged this morning.
