JEROME CANDID.
Expects Some Behind the Bars After
Equitable Suits.

New York, July Notwithstanding
the formal denial by Gage E. Iarbel
that he had participated with Dist.-At-
ty. Jerome in any conference in regard
to matters concerning the Equitable Life
Assurance society, It is the general opin-
ion among those most closely in touch
with the present situation in the big in

trict attorney there cannot be the slight
est doubt, and If, as Mr.. Tarbell asserts,
he was not the medium through which
Mr.. Jerome conveyed his intentions to
those who have been interested in these
operations, there is every reason to be-
lieve that these persons have been in
formed that there viii be work for a
grand jury in connection with the invest
ment Of money controlled BY the officers
of the society in which these officers
and not the polieyholder were the bene-
ficiaries.
Mr.. Jerome made his position clear
on this aspect Of the situation at a con-
ference with one OF those most closely
concerned in the operations of the syn
dicate.
Il am not prepared to say" he IS
quoted as having remarked to this per-
son, chat you individually are the worst

shall be greatly surprised if one OF more

PRETTY SILVER NOVELTIES
AS CHRISTMAS PRESENTS

ton. The wheel on which the ribbon
is wound stands on a fiat base, out Of
the center of which two prongs sup

needed to run through dainty pieces OF
iace-trimmed clothing. These wheels
are small and are made for carrying
only baby ribbon size. Price is 81

Work Case.

Another new thing that will please
women-at least those who do fancy
works a silk case made for fine fiat
disks, with spools of thread for fine en-
broidery between them. On the top panel
is a pocket for needles, divided-by baby
ribbon of n color TO match the moire
silk-from receptacle made for the
silver bcdkin that Is fitted with three
knobs alternating so that any ribbon
attached will be kept straight while IL
is being run through lace or embroidery.
The advantage of such bodkin will be
appreciated by any one who has thread
ed ribbons. On top of the disk. in a
round pocket, a silver thimble is placed
to complete the set Entire cost is $3.50.
For men who smoke there IS a new
kind OF ash receiver. with a revolving
top or lid that covers the center and
shuts out any odor that might rise from
the ashes. These may be bought with
or without chasing and sell for IS mp.
Another appropriate gift for a man is a
silver case for cigarette papers 1t is
about two inches long. and when filled
with rice papers is about a quarter or
an inch wide and opens like the cover
of a book. 1t may be bought for S2.75.

inexpensive silver novelties for
Christmas gifts this season are unusual
ly plain and simple in design and are
decorated with floral and scroll pat
terms. instead of being engraved as they
were last year Like the costly pieces
in this metal, the beauty of each arti-
Gle is in its usefulness and in the lines
on which it is made, and not in orna-
mentation.
A new style tea strainer and glass
stand on which IL rests viii delight
every woman who serves the beverage
either at meals or in the afternoon. for
it means the eliminating of stains

tables The strainer is of silver and has a
| broad. deep boEl with a wide edge that
rests on the glass stand. 1t is fitted with a
| long, slender ebony handle that makes

of heavy glass, is also deep and round
and rests in a silver frame that has
! three delicate legs with ball feet sup
porting the wide metal edge that holds
! the glass firmly in place. In appearance
| it is like small chafinS dish. The cost
is $3.50.
| Another entirely original thing I'm sill
yer is a little jewel casket patterned

with wide. round feet. The curves in

and add TO the massive appearance. The

| The edges are plain, but the sides are
| delicately ornamented with tiny cupids

/ in blue, red. pink. yellow, or any color
desired Some are so padded that they
have an opening just large enough for
