Report of Special Meeting and Visit
of Hudson River Realty Co. Direc-
tors Satisfactory Visit and Prospect
-AmicabIe Relations Good.

The special meeting of the Taxpayers
Association, held on August 81 for the
purpose of considering further the &C
ton against the Hudson River Realty
Company, proved one of the most in
teresting the organization has held.
President Louis c.. Freeman was pres
ent under protest as he asserted, because
his side of the lawsuit case did not
deem it advisable to interfere with the
committee arrangements already in
vogue The Committee of Ten had con-
suited counsel in Newark, and the &C
ton advised. The special meeting was
so bitterly opposed that UP to the very
last moment efforts were made to stop
it. The anti-lawsuit element was not
to be influenced, however, and the meet
ing was held Those who called the
meeting had no other motive, the leaders
assert than to go before the Hudson
River Realty Company with a committee
empowered to act Chairman Paul T
Brady of the Committee of Seventeen,
had received information that the direc-
tors of the company would be here Sep
TENDER 6, with a settlement the object
Mr.. Brady read letters from George W.
Drisco1l attorney for the company, say
ing he had written as an individual urg-
ing the company to come here and get
this question of improvements out of
the way for all time. To this end Mr..
Brady made a motion that a committee
of five or seven be appointed with power
to act in lieu of the Committee of Sew
enteen, to meet the directors. This was
voted down, and the Committee of Sew
enteen continued in force, but with posi-
tive instructions to act. This latter
power of the committee was bitterly
opposed by President Freeman, who
thought that the Committee of Seventeen
should report back to the Association.
But Chairman Paul T. Brady so might
lily opposed this that the power was given
the committee to settle the company
matter without reference to the Asso-
citation. When the vote was taken, Mr..
Brady proposed that those present at the
meeting indicate what they thought the
best thing to do with the company, and
at this President Freeman got up and
left the meeting in decided state of
displeasure at the prolonged dis
cussion, and Vice-President Charles
T. Logan took the chair. Fur
Their argument was cut short, how
ever, because Mr.. Holt explained that
the Committee of Seventeen had
threshed out the entire matter and knew
what was wanted.
1t was further decided by unanimous
vote at this meeting that the lawsuit
Committee of Ten should be discon-
tinued till the visit of the directors, dis
banding altogether if a settlement were
reached.
During the evening remarks were

come back into fashion for wear with tho
braided outaways.
There seems 90 DO little chance that the
double breasted saok Goa will come into
favor again for some time. There were
nearly fifteen years OF popularity to Its
credit when 1t did drop Out OF fashion,
and now 10 seems to be gon for GOOD.
The only suits Of this kind that the tallors
are making up this season are for the men
who really must wear them-that La, the
yachtsmeh. 6erRes and hannela are used
and the sleeves are not made with a turn
yer ouf but with the cum applied and
closed with three buttons.
Two ~overooats for rough wear have
recently come over here from London
and at least one OF them has been cordially
received. 1t Is made Of q rough tweed
or Scotch mixture, usually In checks. The
coat fits rather tightly over the shoulders
and then falls loosely.-in fact with almost
a bell shape. The lines run out directly
from the shoulders. 1t has no lininV,
although the material is 90 finished or the
inside that IL has the eject Of q cloth lining.
The buttons, which are large and made OF
translucent bone, which takes it's shade
from the color Of the coat, come through
the cloth with no fly to hide them. There
are no vents and the strapped seams make
vents impossible. The pockets have a
flap which 10 sometimes buttoned down.
The other overooat, which IL hk the, one
described and is Intended for motoring,
driving OF other rough wear, lie somewhat
more pronounced In style and has not
been taken up 90 warmly where men are
more conservative about dress than they
are anywhere else in the world. The
Goa fits much more closely above the
waist and suddenly flares out at that point,
standing out about the legs.

SUMNER FASHIONS FOR HEN
FLANNEL SUITS ARE POPULAR
IN MANY COLORS.

The Cut Of the New COats-EnEIand More
Extreme Than America Tho Tweed
Nsuita OF the seasOn-Fancy Haisteoats
still POpular-The New OyercOats.
No coat Is near 80 interesting to the aver
age American as he flannel for nine men
out Of ten wear this garment as soon as
the warm weather sets In. The coat Is
long, as it was last year and must fall well
below the waist, as the suit in the picture
shows. The back does not At closely TO
the figure, but shows what the tailors call
a half shape There is a deep roll Of the
collar, which should fall back freely and
show no signs OF being pressed down. The
lapels, to be in the style this season, must
be at least two and a half inches broad.
The hip pockets usually have flaps, al
though this is not lone when the seams are
strapped, as that gives a flannel suit a too
elaborate appearance.
The smartness that the tailor can this
year add to a flannel sack lies in the cut Of
the neck. That must be low and the rest
Of the coat.if 1t be allowed to fall from the
shoulders, which should fit moderately
tight, will take care OF itself. Some Of
these coats have the collar cut so deep
and the opening in front cut up 30 high
that there is room for only three buttons.
and these are put close together in the
small space between the end OF the collar
and the beginning Of the front opening.
Much better style, however, for the flannel
coat Is four buttons, or at least three, put
far enough apart to stretch well over the
front Of the BOAT.
Another detail which suggests painting
the lily in the case Of a flannel suit Is the
turned back cuff with the buttons which
some Of the tailors are adding to the coats
this year in the hope Of making them a little
different from the styles Of the last few
seasons II any cuff effect is wanted in
iannels it is to be had by putting on the bias
applied cuff or by opening hes sleeve for a
distance Of three inches and using the but
tons there. This is regarded as the best
style for a cuff for iannels. The vent in the
back Of the coat, il one in used-London
tailors leave It out Of this years mode
altogether-should be in the centre Of the
back and not at each side. The trousers
with fannels are still made long enough to
turn up at the bottoms. The wise man
always gets two pairs to every suit.
In spite Of the tiresome run that onion
skin and other browns had two years ago,
it has again happened that there is a great
demand for fannels Of that color. They
are liked best In the hard finish. Grays
are. OF course, popular. and on the dark
grounds there are checks and stripes Of

CHOCOLATE AND COCOA
Gaining on Coffee and Tea I'm for
National Favor.


Chocolate and cocoa are not likely to
Dust coffee and tea in the national affections
but they are pushing hard. We are spend
ing a million dollars a month for cacao,
which is the raw product from which both
cocoa and chocolate are obtained.
During the Last :Sn years our importations
OF cacao have increased 200 per cent, while
those OF coffee ave increased only 80 per
cent. and those OF tea have decreased IA
per cent. At the present time, caoao is
gaining on its rivals at a more rapid rate
than ever before.
Most Of the cacao consumed in America
comes from Brazil, hte British West Indies
and the West Indian islands.
1t Ia during the last three years, according
to What 10 Eat, that the increase In caoao
importations has been most marked.
Manufacturers AVE been forced to make
addition after addition to the capacity Of
their plants. to increase their working forces
to enormous proportions, and still it has
beer almost impossible for them to fill all
orders on time.

The COCOA bean possesses more nitrogen
than wheat -four, and about twenty times

half of the weight Of COCOA is cocoa butter

%portunity in the life insurance business for
getting a fresh start
The result is that the companies. &C.
cording TO this officer. begin almost imme-
diately to write more business. One OF the
things testified to by any number Of wit
committee was that IL is the agency force
that makes or unmakes an insurance COM
pany.
Men. it was said, absolutely will not get
their lives insured until there are agents
to prod them along. There 10 one com
an agency force, writing all its business
over its counters, but that Is only one in
stance.
When some OF the Armstrong committee
investigators proposed that such a course
be adopted by some Of the big companies
not enough business would be- written to
Offset the maturing policies. What the
Armstrong committee did was to limit the
cuisines which any single company may
write in a year to $3.50, 600 600. Some Of
the companies in years gone by have written
considerably more than $3.50, 900. 600 in a
year.
But the big companies will do we'll this
year IL they come up to the limit set by the
Armstrong laws. The falling of has some
times been attributed to the loss Of con-
hdenoe in the Arrangements Of the COM
panies. According to the officer quoted
above. this is not the real reason for the
present slump. II is the general period Of
prosperity, together with the stringent
laws which the Legislature passed curtail-
ing the commissions that may be paid to
agents.
The cutting down Of the agents commits
sions alone meant the retirement Of many
of them into other fields. The companies
haven't begun to notice any marked trend
in the other direction yet, but when IL does
come 1t will be a pretty sure indication that
the shoe is beginning TO pinch in the general
industries Of the country.

INSURANCE AND HARD TIMES.
One Business Tha PrOspers when Other
Lines Arc Depressed.

hhAIOo ~
There is one set OF business men, the Of
hcers Of the life insurance companies. who
aren't worrying over talk of a period Of de-
preston. Bad times means for them q
boom in business. Life insurance 10 prob
ably the only business Of which this Is true,
except possibly the undertaker's.
The general impression is that men in
prosperous times don't think Of providing
against the future by taking out a policy.
This may have something to do with the
fact that the leanest years in the life in
surance business are those in which the
general prosperity is the greatest, but
according to an ofioer Of INT Of the New
York companies it isn't the chief reason.
Tho real reason said this man, els
that the agency force is depleted both In
quantity and quality when a period Of
prosperity is on. Life insurance agents.
when business is booming in all lines, find
more profitable and agreeable employment
than oanvassing for policies.
MANY Of the best agents start up in
some sort Of business for themselves. There
is a general downward tendency In the
agency force until hard times begin.
~Then many OF the best men who have
pulled out from the life insurance field
drift back and the agency ranks are reen-
forced also by other men Of ability who
nave met reverses and who see a good OPP

From The Sobetho Herold.


The National Bank OF Sabetha gets its
paper money from the Government In large
sheets. After the bills are signed by the
Officers Of the National Bank Of SabethR
each bill IL cut of with a pair Of scissors and
the paper becomes currency.
Some time ago Jason Waltman went over
into Missouri to buy a farm. Desiring 10 have
the money In convenient form. he got the
bank bills In the large uncut sheets. He went
TO Missouri and everything went smoothly.
Negotiations for the farm with the old farmer
were soon completed. and when IL came time
for Waltman 10 hand over the money he
pulled out a couple OF sheets of bills. Getting
a pair OF scissors from the armer' wife he
be Ran 10 cut on the bills with which 10 make
the purchase. The farmer looked st the
operation, mouth open and eyes bulginT.
After waltman had cut OF a few Of the bills
the farmer stopped him.
