Yesterday afternoon Private Chester

quate quantities for cleanliness; gas was
used in but one house and that from a
quaTter-in-the-slot meter.
Most of the houses are SO small as
10 preclude the idea Of privacy, and
some are crowded beyond the point Of
decency. Most of the families seek the
outskirts of the city 10 save rent. but
this IS often delusive because of the
extra expense for caUfare."
The total assessed value Of fifteen OF
the houses Is but $3.50 exclusive of
land: and Of ten Of them, It is only 81 500.
Big Rent for Poor Houses.
Some remarkable statements are made
about tbs relation of rents TO invest
ments. Mr. Forman ands that exces-
sively large returns are earned by these
properties rented to the very poor. Thus
on one property worth not over $3.50 a
family paid $50 a month. or $lGO year.
The real estate men say that property
rented by the well-to-do usually returns
about 10 per cent gross; yet this family
was paying nearer to = per cent gross.
II was typical of others. In every case
there was paid large excess over the
amount necessary 10 return the 10 per
cent gross.
In all their expenditures. the poor
are found 20 lose heavily because of the
necessity of buying I'm the smallest
quantities. They live from hand 10
mouth. and it is shown that by reason
of this method they add very greatly
20 the expense Of existence.
Get Worst of It All Around.
Taking the excesses in their rent
charges. the losses which they incur
by reason of buying in extremely small
quantities. and the immense interest
burden that the poor pay because of
borrowing from loan agents at out
rageous rates, Mr.. FOrman finds that
the "other half" gets extremely poor
returns even for the small amount of
money they have to spend Their
greatest losses are in bad bargains
excessive rent, bad buying borrowing
at high interest, etc.
These are but few Of the phases of
life among the poor which Mr. Forn-an
discusses with interest and profit He
has plainly made a careful study of his
subject. and the results are expected
to be made useful IN the line OF effort
for amelioratiOn of the conditions of the
poor.

Yesterday were that Albert 5. Osborne, the hand
writing expert is getting $50 a day and expenses

There was general surprise in court yesterday

many advantages the day before and asked MT
Osborne how much he was paid. Mr.. Osborne said
he was 10 receive $50 a day and expenses without
regard TO whether or he testitying. In
reply 10 question by Mr.. IAtleton, he said he DIS
ct1ssed the case with other handwriting experts
Would il be possible for Colonel Mann to write
his initials in such a way that you could not. by
comparison with the admitted standards. identify
them?" asked Mr.. Lttleton.
.'Oh. YES; I have no hesitation in saying that
this is quite possible said the witness III Colonei
Mann were 10 make several conventional sigma
lures might not be able to tell them
The witness explained that the disputed hahd-
writing was mot conventional. but cratic Justice
McAvoy interposed with a question as 10 whether
A writer could make conventional and unconven-
tionaI letters al the same time. in quick sue
cesson.'' Mr.. Osborne said that it could be done.
He explained that conventional" meant ordinary
legible handwriting. and unconventional hand
writing which displayed certain individual traits
Assistant District Attorney Hart then turned the
witness over TO Mr.. Littleton. The examination
