New York Special.
 Miss Giula Morosini, who has been the one unique figure of the iorse Show this week, because or her sownS' sns for which she says she spent $zOo'VUv' was severely rebuked yesterday by Rose Pastor Stokes, the former tene- ment house worker, who married millionaire Socialist several months ago A few days since Miss Morosinl gave, out an interview in which she de- gcrtbed her Horse Show gowns In de- tail and sought to justify the great ex- penditure for them by saying that h put money in circulation. Mrs Stokes said:
 "It is because such women as Miss Morosini and women of their class never think what things cost, and that women of the working class are com peIled to think constantly of whaf things cost, that the rude awakening is bound to come to all of us some day, perhaps at greater cost than we can ar ford unless such women who spend great wealth they have never done anything to earn begin to think early and soon of the deep Injustice underly. ing our economic and social conditions, ''.Perhaps it were well for Miss MO- rosini and women in a class with her to consider what the effort must be or the kind of notoriety given her through an interview upon the women who pro- duce the wealth which she so waste fully spends, and what the result or that effect must some day be-
 Cannot Re Happy.
 "Women thus wasteful and extrava- gant are not as they do not deserve to be, happy. Women having merely enough clothing to keep them in at least a semblance of self-respect are not and cannot be happy. There IS nothing that this woman wears or pos sesses that is not produced by labor. and yet labor lives in poverty.
 why do not women who live in the sweat of other womens brows ever think of the injustice of their positionz Miss Morosinf says. T would never wear anything imitation It may be a mark of good taste to desire to wear nothing imitation, but it is mark of far better taste and culture to desire to be nothing imitation.
 There cannot but be a deal of pre- tense and sham about those who souander great wealth wastefully and selfishly, and desire at the same time to be thought charitable.
 Miss Morosini's charities around the Morosini home in Riverdale are well known. and there is no gown, no matter what it cost, that curtails her charity expenses.

Over One Hundred Gamblers Arrested
 on Novel Charge.
 New York, Dec. 12.--Led by District Attorney Jerome, the police tonight l0sth Street and arrested IA men who were charged with having refused to aid the police when a felony was being committed.
 Another man was charged with run ming the gambling house. The new tactics of the District Attorney were a great surprise not cnly to the pris- oners. but also the lawyers and bondJ- men who ficcked to the stati3n.
 Fictitious names are often given fol- lowing such a raid but tonight the Dis trict Attorney instructed the sergeant at police station to require the b0nds- men to make oath that the prisoners names and addresses as given were correct.
 In nearly every case the bondsmen refused to give bail and the result was that at late hour the majority of the IA men were still at the station.
 About fifty-five policemen partl- cipated in the raid. To enter the gam bling house several doors were batter ed down with iron rails taken from q passing truck. Once entrance was eff fected, all the patrol wagons from nearby stations were called to convey .the prisoners to the police station. The unusual charge against the IA prison CTS grew out of an earlier attempt to enter the place.
 detective had mounted a ladder and through a window saw what he thought was gambling. He called up on the men within to admit him and when they failed to comply. he notified the District Attorney that an officer or the law had been defied.
