The PENALTY OF

Increased cost of living is a pen

their own stupidity and indifference.
They have really nobody to blame
but themselves.
Had the present revolt started nine
months ago there would have been
sweeping reductions in the tariff on
foodstuffs and other necessaries Of

rev grand jury was ordered to renew
the investigation of the packing com

The indictment was drawn on evidence
secured by agents of the federal jury
and ran against the National Packing
company and its ten subsidiary COM
panies, charging violation of the Sher-
nan antitrust law
Smiles. hand claps and Congratulations
we're exchanged with much glee when
Judge Lands announced that the indict-
ment would not stand, but the demon
stration came to sudden, almost breath
less, end when the court added:
Call a special grand jury venire OF 70
men for July a."
This body will be ordered to hear testi-
n,ony with a view to finding valid in
dictments against the packing companies.
The indictments quashed today failed
to show, in the view OF Judge Landls'
that any offense had been committed
within the last three years. Tt did not
show that during this statutory period
the defendants had been engaged in in
terstate commerce The general aver

the eleventh annual grand American
handicap with perfect score of 100 at

most convincing proof of his insanity is
his return to this country His every
action since his arrest points to an I'M
sound mind. For instance, when he was

him he remarked, How fiattering'
The senior Charlton was accompanied
here by the prisoners younger brother.
Both men declared that by innumeranle
acts since he became married Porter
Charlton showed that he was unbai-
anced.
The father held a long conversation
with the prisoner In his cell today There
was an affectionate scene when father
met son in the Hoboken police station
The elder man wept bitterly, but the
youthful prisoner maintained an air of
unconcern. AS the men shook hands
the father regarded his son with pity
and sorrow was depicted on his face

Nothing matters anyway, and 1t does
not make any difference to me-
History of Crime
The body of Mrs. Mary Scott Castle
Charlton was found packed In a trunK
which was taken from Lake Como near
the village of Moltraso by fishermen
June 10. The woman with her husband,
TOItSi 1HdiitoIlt uau occupied a villa
on the lake front leased by them some
time before. At the time the woman s
body was found Porter Charlton could
not be found. The Italian police have
insisted that Charlton vas alive and have
directed their energies to locating the
young man.
American Consul Caughey, on the other
hand, held to the theory that double
murder had been committed and 1t was
through his representations that the Ttal-
ian authorities engaged divers to make
a search of the lake bottom.
Meantime the detectives followed up
their own theories and their recent con-
ciusion was that Charlton was a pas
senger upon some steamer which had
sailed from Genoa or other Italian port
for New York.
The only arrest made in Italy in con-
nection with the case was the detention
of Constance Ispolatoff, a Russian. who
has been released.

After Charlton had been led away to a

Hot weather Causes sutc,de

heat here today caused one man to
end his life with a bullet from a re-
volver. Another was overcome and
fell in front of train, which killed
him in the presence of hundreds of
Mortified fellow commuters. In add.
ton Is deaths were due to the torrid
weather itself. This was the third day
of the present hot wave and the mer-
curry climbed to "a degrees at 1 o'clock

of a sensational character were made

So positive is the evidence of such n
