ton again yesterday when the trial Of his lioe4

on the subject Of Anory's dealings with Talbot
J. TAYLOR and Drayton Brothers prior TO the
bear raid on Metropolitan stock in 1903. Mr.
.Arnory told more Of his dealings with former
District Attorney PhiIbin in the preparation Of
the case against the Metropolitan. and this was
the occasion OF several tiffs between Mr. Amory
and Mr. Nicoll. In reply TO the question. when
did Philbin come into your enterprise" Amory
shouted:
Il won't have you refer TO ii in that way. II
YOU want the facts I'll tell you, but don't you
put words in my mouth"
He is obstreperous this morning. worse than
I ever knew him 20 be-" ar. Hieoll said, turning
10 the jury.
After some discussion between the lawyers
ana the court it was decided TO call Mr.. Amory's
alleged movement against Metropolitan stock
an affair"
Several letters Of a correspondence between
Mr. Philbin and John d. Crmmins were read
10 the jury. in which Amory and the affairs Of
the Metropolitan were discussed
Il suppose your friend Jerome was N aCcofo
with you in this matter at the time?" Mr. Nicon
asked.
''Oh. yes" said Amory. AT that time"
Mr. Nicoll ended his examination Of Mr.. Am
ory a few minutes after court convened IN the
afternoon. Then the plaintiffs lawyer took
charge An effort was made TO get before the
sury the fun details Of Amory's relations with
the District Attorney in connection with criTni-
nal charges ne sought TO bring He declared
that these charges, together with reports, were
laid before the District Attorney at the Hotel
Renaissance during dinner given by Drayton
and attended by AmOTy.
Under The direction of his counsel. Mr.. Amory
tried 10 give a complete history Of the old busi-
ness rivalry between the Third Avenue road and
the Metropolitan He stopped before he
had fairly started. His attempt was to show
that he had become interested in Metropolitan
affairs through instructions from his superior
officers of the Third Avenue line.

Three couple, husbands and wives,
Of the highest repute, dined at New
York city hotel a few evenings since,
and the host and his wife directed
that the coffee be sent to their rooms.
This was done, and the waiter calling
later for the cups, saucers and spoons,
found that three of the spoons were
missing. He reported the matter to
the manager, who quickly made a de-
mand for the return Of the three
spoons. The host and hostess were
greatly embarrassed, and you may i'm.
agine the feelings Of their guests but
the manager was obdurate A little
search disclosed the missing spoons
beneath the table The host and host
ess en- the. following day protested in
vigorous terms to the owners Of the
hotel, and got this reply:
Sorry, indeed, very sorry you we're
embarrassed, but we stand by our
manager. We don't dispute your word,
but we would rather have you leave
the hotel than crticise him. He knows
that every year we are compelled to
mark Off In profit and loss fully s25,-
900 which represents silver and al
most every known article under the
sun stolen by guests from this hotel"

BELL UNDER THE SEA
NOVEL WARNING TO SHIPS or
APPROACHING PERIL.
Electricity Conveyed by Cable From
the Shore Operates Mechanism-
Sound Travels Five or Ten
Miles Through Water.

Washington.--A novel method to
inform ship captains Of the approach
Of their vessels to the danger zone
has been perfected in connection with
the use of the system Of submaane
bell signals in places where the bell
cannot be placed on light ship or
lighthouse.
The electric bell Is hung from
tripod set on the bottom Of the sea
at the edge Of the shoal at the re-
quired point and this bell is struck
BY mechanism operated BY cur
rent OF electricity conveyed through
cable from the signal station on
shore. Such station at Point Aller-
ton. Mass. and another at the en-
trance to Halifax harbor are operated
with cables more than two miles long
The bell strikes any code that Is
desired and the sound travels through
the water, so that vessels from five to
ten miles away hear It, and get direc.
tions accurately in fog or at night
when equipped with a receiving appa-
ratus.

are shaped after the fashion Of ths
bombs used by anarchists, and are
iron and loaded with gunpowder.
Several days after the discovery
one Of the new recruits at the fort
was found trying to dry the powder
in one Of the missiles by roasting II

Of practically no use whatever in mod

MIRRORS as petecsIves.

TT is not solely to please the lady
patrons" said an interior decorator,
'that mirrors SC abound in shops.
They serve another and a more impor-
tant purpose. They detect shoplifters.
III you should study the various
watchers in the employ Of big retail
stores, you would find that they don't
watch the patrons directly They
watch their reflections in the mirrors.
"Of course, their watching, done
that way, is unperceived. The shop
litter glances at the watcher, sees
that his back is to her, and secretes
a pair Of silk stockings in her blouse.
"Alas. the next moment she feels
an unfriendly and terrifying tap on
the shoulder. and the watcher, who
has caught her by the mirrors aid,
bids her sternly to accompany him to
the Office"
