That Price of Clothes to
Be Increased.
WORD IS JUST RECEIVED
THIS FALL RICHMOND MEN WILL

WILL AVERAGE MORE THAN A
DOLLAR MORE.

Here is the first result Of the pas
sage by the senate of the proposed
tariff schedule.
- A local clothing merchant has re-
ceived word from a Chicago manufac-
turing establishment that the price of
woolens has been increased SO that
every suit will cost at least $3.50
more this fall at wholesale price.
This will be something for the men
who buy the clothes and also cast the
ballots to remember. The senate re-
fused to revise the tariff downward
and the election Of senators is not by
popular vote. But the men who
choose the senators are selected by
the men who wear the clothes, SO the
natural deduction shows where the
process Of elimination will have to
begin.

AN |NQO|RY INTO

~
Official Action Will Be Taken
In the Mysterious Sut-
ton Case.
HIS MOTHER TAKES HAND
SHE WANTS TO FREE THE NAME
OF THE DEAD LIEUTENANT
FROM THE STIGMA OF SUICIDE
NEW DEVELOPMENTS.

New York, July 12.-Developments
have been coming thick and fast in the
mysterious case of Lieutenant James
N. Sutton of the Marine Corps who
was shot to death at Annapolis in Oc-
tober, 1907. since his mother, James N.
Sutton, of Portland, Oregon, who de-
clares he was murdered, obtained the
order for an official inquiry, which
begins next Monday and at which she
will endeavor to clear his name of the
stigma of suicide. Many witnesses are
now coming forward who will testify
to incidents which, it is asserted, all
tend to show that Sutton was shot by
a brother officer and that his death
did not occur in the manner described
at the inquiry at that time. Miss Mary
E. Stewart of Pittsburg. to whom it is
alleged Sutton was engaged and who
is an important witness in the case, is
said to have hurried from her home to
Canada with the intention of staying
there until the new investigation is
over. Mrs. Sutton says her son was
with Miss Stewart until few minutes
before midnight on the night he was
killed and that through Miss Stewart
she could prove that Sutton was not
at the dance at Carvel Hall as had
been alleged. 1t is declared today that
the defeat of U. s. Senator Charles
Fuller Of Oregon for reelection was
largely due to the fact that he made
no serious effort to have the navy de-
partment reopen the investigation into
Sutton's death.
Evidence on which Is based the as
sertion that Sutton did not kill him
self includes the statement that he
did not have time to go to his room af-
er the alleged quarrel with other Of
ficers and get revolver with which
it was declared he shot himself.

He chose for his text the twelfth chap
ter of Romans, first verse: II beseech
you therefore, brethren, by the mercies
of God. that ye present your bodies In
living sacrifice, wholly acceptable
unto God, which is your reasonable
service" Rev. Knox closely followed
the line OF his text. He stated that it
was everyone's duty to dedicate. his
whole life to the service of In
speaking of the new church said
the members Of the congregation were
deserving of much commendation for
originating such a movement and not
allowing themselves to become dis
couraged, although many obstacles
have been encountered in the course
of the construction of the new church.
Despite the fact that your congrega-
ton numbers scarcely twenty MEM
bers the spirit of the thing has been
entered into in the right way" he
said, "and as is always the case un-
der such circumstances, the enterprise
has been a most decided success"
Several things were donated to the
church, including the lots and organ
by Mr.. John B. Dougan, and the pull
pit by Mrs. Howard Campbell. The
