PREDICTS CHEAPER
BREAD AS RESULT
OF BAKERS TRUST
August Noll Says Proposed CONF
bine Would Stop Waste
and Reduce Prices.

z August Noll, head of the FritSch Bak-
ing Company, and president of the
Master Bakers Association, of Newark,
was asked today about a report that a
SIS, 600, 900 bread baking combine, or
trust, would be consumated in New
York, i. e., hat the trust would increase
the price of bread n cent a loaf: that
big Newark bread companies are in
the combine, which it is said is backed
by great milling interests of the West.
Mr.. Noll said that If a great bread
combine, or trust, is effected the price
of bread per Ioaf would be decreased,
for the combine would buy flour in
such large quantities that it would get
a very low price. Besides, a combine
would greatly curtail expenses. Where
competing bakers run a dozen to
twenty delivery wagons in a district
now hepointed out that the combine
Y Guild operate perhaps only seven to
ten.
Il 90 not believe the great milling in
terests are backing the talked of COM
bine,' said MIR. Noll. why should

have tens of thousands of return
loaves. They are fed to chickens sand
hogs. A combine would stop this loss,
foi it would sell bread to retailers at
a fixed price and not take back unsold
loaves.

if one is formed and will pay me my

would do. Remember, however. that
there are thAsands of small bakers in
Manhattan Nd vicinity, hundreds in

toners, andNthese bakers would still
compete with a combine. for the latter
would not control the output of Hour.
The small make men who work in their
bakeries could afford to sell a good
loaf of bread at a fair price.
"A large combine could afford to use
the best hour and sell bread cheap, and
it would be good business for a combine

ers viii pay more for bread. or that the

AUTO RAFFLE TO
AID BABIES HOME
DIVIDES SPONSORS
Directors at War with Man
ayers, Who Devised Plan
on Own Responsibility.

There is trouble among officials of the
Babies Hospital in High street, and the
result may be the resignation of sew
eral members of the board of directors,
The difficulty arises over the purchase
of an $500 automobile by the board of
managers of the home for the purpose
of rafting it off for the benefit of the
home.
All parties concerned are chary about
discussing the matter, but 1t was
CLEANED that the dispute has caused a
wide split in the organization. and the
disruption of the board of directors may
be the outcome. In fact, a rumor has
gained currency that formersJudge Ell
wood c. Harris, secretary of the board,
sent in his resignation Immediately OH
hearing of the plan for the rattle.
Investigation proved that this was
not true, but Mr.. Harris admits thai
he does not approve of the plan and
will not sanction it. Mr.. Harris was Ill
at his home today and could not be
seen. Members of the family said that
he had not resigned, but would not
say whether he intended doing so.
1t seems that the automobile waa
purchased by the board of managers,
of which Mrs. w. Campbell-Cl Clark. OF
1910 Broad street, is president, without
consulting the directors. The first the
directors knew Of the purchase was
when the automobile was displayed in
the window of a Broad street store
with a large sign on 1t stating that il
would be ratified at one dollar a ticker
for the benefit of the Baties' Hospital.
AS soon as Mr.. Harris heard of the
proposed rattle de declared he did not
think it proper that any such scheme
should be resorted to by those in charge
of the institution.
Asked If he intended to resign Mr..
Harris replied: II will only say that |
do not approve of the sale Of chances
on an automobile in the name of the
Babies Hospital and that L was not
consulted and had nothing to do with
it,

hospital, said: II know nothing about

DIVORCE TO
PLEASE WIFE WHO
WOULD WE'D AGAIN
Three Trials for Bigamy
for Other Marriages Drive
Woman to Seek Release.

Yielding after several years to the
pleadings of his wife, who desires her
freedom so that she may wed again
without fear of facing trial for bigamy,
John NJ. Sipp, who lives in William
street, near Washington, has brought
suit here for divorce from Hattie Sipp.
Three trials on charges of bigamy
for other marriages apparently con-
WINGED Mrs. Sipp of the necessity of
dissolving the bonds of her marriage
before making another marital VEN
ture. For this reason she appealed to
Sipp for release. His action is based
on the very charges which have caused
the woman SO much trouble, as he al
leges bigamy as the ground for OBJ
tanning a decree. Letters written by
Mrs. Sipp to her Newark husband will
figure in the testimony, and in several
Of these she refers to the extra hus-
bands as good things"
The other husbands named in order are
Eugene f.. Derby, of 462 Massachusetts
avenue, Buffalo; John householder, of
165 South Goodman street, Rochester,
and a DIR. Decker, a dentist, of Roches-
ter. One after the other all made COM
plants of bigamy against the woman,
based on her marriage TO Sipp. but her
attitude Of innocence captured the SYM
pathetic jurymen, and in each ease she
was freed
During one of the trials in Rochester,
Sipp and the Rev. George ~Schombach,
formerly of this city, were prominent
witnesses, and testified to the marriage
in this city on July 2, 1888, which the
latter performed. When asked if he
were used to performing these cere-
monies Mr.. Schombach said he thought
50. He had tied 5000 nuptial knots.
The defence of the youthful Mrs. Sipp
was that at the time of her marriage to
Sipp she was but 10 years of age, and
consequently the ceremony was not legal,
as the law In New Jersey provides that
q bride must be at least Is. This was
laughed at, but, nevertheless, after a
four hours consideration, the jury came
in with a verdict of not guilty.
Freedom was not long for Mrs. Sipp,
however, as she was Immediately ar
rested because of the householder mar
riage, and after an acquittal on this
charge was arrested once more for the
Decker ceremony In Rochester. This
made the woman break down, and in
fearful tones she cried: II am tired of
living; my life has been a miserable one
and I am resigned to whatever punish
ment they mete out to mel
Following this acquittal, Mrs. Sipp
wrote her husband, begging him to get
a divorce and enc the trouble their mar
rage bad caused.
"You know well enough there is no
olanco of us coming together again, for
the simple reason that I don't like you

not been consulted and have done MOTH
ing yet
The protest by Mr.. Harris and other
members of the board against the plan
has cooled the enthusiasm of the board
of managers over the scheme. but they
are not disposed to give it up. In fact.
much resentment is expressed over the
fact that the scheme has been called
improper. +
Mrs. Clark. president of the board,
was out of the city today, and none On
the other members would discuss the
matter for publication. One member
who would not allow her name to be
used said: There are a lot Of old
