Physicians Under Examination
Say EatOn'S Injuries Are
Permanent

When Superior Court opened this
morning l. n. Eaton was recalled in

pany In answer to his counsel w. w.

called. He testified that Eaton had
his collar bone broken and in addi-
tion to his head being cut there were
several bruises about the face and body.
At times during the day the doctor said
Eaton remained unconscious.
Dr. Frank f. Pierson was the con-
sulting physician and testified TO the
rupture of the ligaments in the breast
and the affecting Of the muscles OF
Eatons arm. The injuries to the
shoulder DR.. Pierson said are such that
Eaton will never be able to use the
arm again.
DIR. Thomas II. Phillips testified that
he examined Mr. Eaton, but did not
prescribe for him because there was
no hope Of his shoulder and arm ever
being right again.
The plaintiff then rested and the de-
Tense opened.

and Gray, appeared for the defendant

tended that no negligence had beer
shown on the part of the company.

the first witness called. and testife,
that leaves on the tracks were re
sponsible for the car getting away

dition at the time and the happening
was unavoidable.

INSPECTION OF
CANNED GOODS
Urged by Tri-State Packers
at Meeting Held To-
day

Resolutions urging Federal inspection
Of canning factories and Federal stand
ardization OF canned goods were dis
cussed at the ANNUAL meeting Of the
Tri- State PacelSrs Association in the
Clayton House today. Referred for re-
vision TO a committee they will be fur
ther considered this afternoon. This
committee comprises Senator r. G.
Barnard. Of Camden. Del; Frederick
Owens OF Denton, Md; G. S. Stevens,
OF cedarville. n. J.. and Charles S.
Torsch, of Baltimore. a
The idea is 20 eliminate competition
with the irresponsible packer, whose
products are placed upon the same
plane as the responsible packer. Feds
eral inspection and Standardization will,
the packers believe. take the canning
industry from the disfavor occasioned
by reports of unsanitary factories and
Of canning of poor qualities.
Both resolutions were offered by Mr..
Owens and will be submitted TO the
meeting Of the National Association
at Atlantic City on February Z.
They were given preliminary discus
sion at an informal conference Of
about twenty OF the packers at the
NA0NAoM Al0hco AdoA iibnAf AhlANg VI
more attended this mornings session.
w. o. Hoffecker, president, Of Smyrna,
presided
A resolution requesting the express
companies 20 restore special rates for
canning goods sent out as samples was
adopted and copies ordered forwarded
to the companies.
Regarding the condition OF the canned
goods trade reports were submitted TO
the effect that tomatoes are now being
sold at loss OF FIVE TO seven cents a
dozen TO the packers. This is because
of the unusually heavy pack of toma-
toes during the seasons OF 1907, 1908 and
1909 The average consumption Of can
ned tomatoes I'm the country Is about
one million cases, or two million dozen
cans. "A month. There are now held by
the packers about two million cases, and
IL Is believed there are enough cases held
by wholesale and jobbers to last until
September, when the 1910 pack will be
put on the market.
At the best there will not be much
more than the demand, it was reported,
and this may cause raise in the prices
OF canned tomatoes within few months.

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE stock mar
ket opened with general fractional ad-
vances, but the upward movement soon
ceased and the general list moved down
ward. Steel common, Southern Pacific
and the Coppers lead the decline with
losses around ono point.
II a. m.-Continued downward move
ment in prices throughout the list af-
ter the first few minutes was attributed
almost wholly to the depressing senti-
mental influence of further news OF the
Paris food calamity. Recessions rang
ed from one 10 two points.
Governments unchanged; other bonds
irregular
Noon-Further severe losses were sus-
tained during the late forenoon. Colorado
