BIG CARGOES OF FRENCH IMPORTS
 IN ANTICIPATION OF TAX
Special from United Presso

Especial from United Press.)
 Washington, May 20.-There will be enough diamonds, champagne, lace embroideries, artificial flowers, fine gloves, China-ware and other luxuries in this country to last a long time at the present price, even if the proposed plan of taxing the rich is finally adopt ed by Congress.
 Reports to the Department of Com merce and Labor state that every ship from France is bringing in big car goes of these things in anticipation of the tax. Figures for the month of March of this year made public to-day show the value of diamonds imported from France was 10 times that for March of last year. The United States imported s3S7.S worth of champagne from France in March against S203, ,523 in March last year; gloves s333,3 against s27S, S,914 in the same month last year, with just as big increases in silk laces, ribbons and the rest of the list. Our total imports from France increased 60 per cent. in February and March. over last years figures for these two months.

 Another act which is making a big success this week is the comedy sketch of ZinelI & Boutelle. which is entitled "237 Miles to New York;" and in which MT. Zinell appears as a broken down and stranded actor, while Miss Bou- telle is an operatic singer who has al so met with hard luck on the road Miss Boutelle's charming stage pres ence and beautiful voice have won for her much appreciation during her stay here. and her songs are heard at every performance with every demonstration of pleasure. MT. Zinell is a clever comedian, and his splendid bass voice is heard to excellent satisfaction.
 Pat Touhey, with his Irish pipes; Charles Burke, with his dron Irish character, and the two ladies of the company. make of '"The Birthday Par ty" a sketch which is extremely en- joyable. This is one of the leading features of the entire bill, and they are nightly greeted jh a most friendly manner Miss Touhey is a clever dancer. and does a ''kid" part in pleasing way.

YALE PROFESSOR SAYS HYPNOTIzED
 PATIENT RECOVERED MEMORY

New Haven, May 20.-The statement b made at Grace Hospital that Prof School had succeeded in taking Char les Van Osten, the Grace Hospital pa tient, through New York city while hypnotioedt and that Van Osten had shown him the scenes prev1ously oe- scribed while in a hypnotic state.
 Before the trip began Van Osten was hynotized by Dr. Diefendorf, and he was asked to go to his former homes on Forty-second and Twenty second streets. Van Osten made a bee line through the streets to the ad- dresses he had repeatedly given in previous hypnotic examinations. When he found strangers living in them he showed grief and consternat1on at not finding his wife and child.
 Van Osten had told in his previous examinations, of many of his friends having been in the Slocum disaster. He was deeply touched by the sight profusely.
 Van Osten suddenly disappeared from the city last week, and the Grace Hos pital officials have been bitterly at not supplying attendants to prevent his escape. It is thought that he has wandered back to his old haunts in New York city in an attempt to f1no hisswife and family.
 Dr. Diefendorf made his first state u1ent regarding the case yesterday, saving the diagnosis indicates that Van Osten is clearly a victim of null tip1e personality.
 The hospital officials and Dr. Die fendorf insist that Van Osten is not shamming, and that his case presents an opportunity to study rare phases of multiple personality. induced by heavy blows on the head. They say that treatment in future cases of mental disturbance arising from crania1 blows nav be largely influenced by discover ies made in this case

REGENT WORK OF BRIDGEPORT
 INVENTORS
A Chain Machine That Makes Chain
 Without Wasting the Material.
Engineer of Fire Company Patents Fire Hose Carrier Another is Marketing Novel Flush Hinge - Six Patents on New Method of Suspending Battery Elements.

Among the recent patents of local in terest issued by the United States Pat. ent Office, which promise to be of practical value, may be mentioned the following that were issued through the efforts of patent attorneys, Cham berlain. & Newman, of this City.
 A Fire Hose Carrier, invented and perfected by Harvey L. Jenkins, En- gineer of No. Engine Company. The carrier is formed of metal and is con- structed so as to permit hose to be readily picked up and carried by a fireman, besides serving as a support for the same when used upon a lad der. MT. Jenkins being a practical fireman not only saw the necessity of a carrier of this kind, but succeeded in developing one that meets the require ments of fire departments in every res pect. He is negotiating with one of the West End manufacturers for the manufacture and sale of the hose car rier.
 James B. Wheat, an inventor of some note, has just secured a patent well adapted for sewing and wiring machine cabinets, hatchway doors and the like, being constructed in such a way as to form no knuckles or other Instructions upon the top side when the hinge is spread, but lies perfectly flush with the surface of the wood to which it is attached. This device has been placed by MT. Wheat. through MT. Newman, with The Ives Mfg. Corporation of this city who are all ready in position to put them on the market in quantities.
 Frank E. Vandercook's sheet metal chain machine which he recently pat ented through the above attorneys has proven to be a great advancement in this art, since it is the only machine of it's kind which utilizes practically all the sheet metal from which the links are formed. thereby avoiding any loss by scrap. By the employment of this kind fiat chain can be made much cheaper and better than has heretofore been done.
 The machine as we'll as the chain have been placed by MT. Vatidercook with the Hathaway Mfg. Co.,, of this city who will now manufacture chain of this class in addition to their other line of products
 Charles B. Schoenmehl has been granted six patents on battery ele- ment supports such as are used in forming compressed oxide of copper and zinc plate couples, and as are ex- tensively used for railway signal work.
 The supports are said to be entirely original in design and are already be- ing sold in large quantities by the Waterbury Battery Company who have secured the exclusive rights from MT. Schoenmehl for the manufacture and sale of batteries containing the patented Improvements.
