Summer Mourning.
All White Quite AS Elk
pressive of Deep Woe
AS All Black.

Our great-grandmothers would have been
scandallzed at Dame Fashions decree
that white is quite as correct as black
for first mourning, provided that no black
is used in connection with 1t. That Is
to say, that an all-white costume is as
expressive of the utmost depths Of woe
as Is one of all-black. While at first
glance this statement may seem start
ling it must be remembered that most
men express an exaggerated dislike for
black and that the American woman lin

SENATOR BORAH'S TRIAL.
Prosecution Confronted by Task Of
Connecting Senator With Fraud.

Boise, Idaho, Oct. |. - The second
week of the trial of Senator Borah,
charged with completely in the Idaho
land frauds, began yesterday before
Federal Judge Whitson, with the gov
ernment attorneys still confronted by
the task of connecting the defendant
with the alleged unlawful combina-
don.
During the first six days of the trial
the name of Senator Borah was sell
dom heard, and the evidence adduced
in behalf OF the government had to do
mainly with the activities of former
Governor Steunenberg.
1t seems to be the policy of the de-
fense to admit for the purpose of Sen
ator Borah's case that conspiracy did
exist. but to contend that Senator
Borah know nothing of its formation
or existence and that he acted in good
faith as attorney in handling land mat.
ters. Senator Borah continues to ex-
press confidence that he will be com
pletely exonerated.

BIG COPPER USERS ESCAPED
Westinghouse and General Electric
Said to Have Bought Two Years
supply at 16.

Pittsburg, Oct. 1.-What is alleged
to have been a scheme on the part of
the copper interests to squeeze both
the Westinghouse interests and the
General Electric is limited at in an Off
cial statement made by one of the
Westinghouse board.
The Westinghouse and General Elec-
trio people are the heaviest users of
copper in the world. That the recent
jump in copper prices was aimed at
these big consumers is alleged, but 1t
is said that both had got beyond
range of trouble.
The Westinghouse interests have
caused it to be announced that they
have not purchased an ounce of cop
per this year nor need they purchase
any to fill their contracts within the
present year. One year ago the West
inghouse people got a tip that
squeeze was coming and they bought
heavily at 1G cents, laying in sup
ply for almost two years before the
prices were shot up to 26 cents. 1t is
understood that the General Electric
company did the same. The dropping
of rates to Is cents recently caused
the statement to be issued here. 1t
is said here that copper is to be re-
turned TO % cents.

0VERWoRKED OPERATOR
Blamed For Disastrous Wreck on the
3. g. o. at BelIaire, o.

Wheeling, Oct. 1.-Prosecuting At
torney Shepard of st. Clairsville has
nearly completed his investigation
into the disastrous wreck on the Bal.
timore & Ohio railroad at Bellaire,
o. He said that warrant would be
issued for Tom Buckhannon, operator
at block signal station No 6, at the
end of the double track, whose blum
der, 1t is said, caused the death OF
10 persons and injury to over 80
others. 1t was said that Buckhannon
had been on duty SO hours before he
made the fatal mistake.
God knows | am sorry did it, but
] absolutely couldn't keep my eyes
open," Buckhannon is reported to
have said to one of the trainmen. The
operator is quietly waiting to be call
ed by the authorities when the inveS
tigation begins.
He states that a short time before
the Chicago train was due he saw a
number of foreigners working with the
switch to the track the freight was on,
while at the same time he called UP
Bellaire by phone and was told that
the freight had left Just as he hung
up the receiver he heard the crash.
Coroner Diven of Martins Ferry
said that a coroner's investigation was
unnecessary, as the cause of the
wreck was explained by the officials.
There was no blunder on the part OF
either crew. Both had orders for the
same track.
Six of the victims were taken from
the wreckage dead Three died in
the Boone hospital at Bellaire shortly
after their removal there, and another,
an unidentified man, died later He
regained consciousness shortly before
he died, and when asked his name he
murmured, "Woodsheld." He is be-
lieved to be from Woodsfield, o.
The remains of man upon whose
person were found papers indicating
that he is L. E. Rowe of Ferry, Mich,
travelling salesman for a Cleveland
iewelry house, are being held for pos
tive identification. No more deaths
have resulted.

The Anqlo.Russian Convention.

The comment at st. Petersburg
recently on the Anglo-Russian con-
yention is marked by an underlying
conviction that the most dangerous
antagonist of Russia, as we'll as Great
Britain, is Germany, with which coun-
try decisive struggle is alleged to be
impending. Writers characterize the
treaty as a guarantee of the safety Of
Russia's and Great Britain's rear, Rus
sia renoucing the far east and middle
east in favor of an active policy in
the near east, from which Germany
had been skillfully DETECTING her, and
Great Britain reassuring the safety
of her frontiers in India in order to
be able to use her full strength in op-
position to Germany's aggressions.

Pittsburg, Oct. |. - The announce
ment from ST. Petersburg to the eff
feet that the Russian admiralty is en-
gagged in plans for the reconstruction
of its navy has caused a renewal of
the reports here that Charles NJ
6chwab has been requested by the
Russian government to lend a helping
hand in reorganizing the steel works
of Russia, so as to enable the admiral.
ty to construct a fleet in Russia.
1t is said that Mr.. Schwab has been
asked to aid in financing the reorgan-
lied Russian steel plants with Amer
lean capital and to engage sufficient
American skilled labor to hustle the
work along, which the Russians seem
unable to do themselves.
Last year Mr.. Schwab visited Rus
sia, ostenslbly for the purpose of get
ting orders for guns and ships. Mr..
Schwab's friends here say, however,
that he was requested to visit Russia
in an advisory capacity and to as
sumo the financial management of the
rehabilitation of the IZhor steel plant.
Within the last few days it has
been announced from st. Petersburg
that the latter concern and other
shipbuilding plants to be constructed
are to be maraged as outside corpora.

would stand back of these plants as
stockholders. 1t was shown to the
Russian government by Mr.. Schwab,
1t is said, that more headway could be
made by contract work than by hav-
ing the ships built by the government.
