for August. he treats the matter as follows:
 Is it, then, that ell dealers or the majority of dealers are dishonest? Far from 1t. There is only a small per centage of dealers who are inherently dishonest. or might be said to have criminal tendencies to wish to defraud their customers. This, of course, they can do with impunity. inasmuch as the customer takes upon faith what is given him; but there are a great many dealers who know that the customer does not know, and, having to meet keen and sharp competition, and sec ing that their neighbors prosper by giving short weight or measure. ac- quire the habit and do likewise. They are the ones who need protection. and who would not give short weight or measure if there were an efficient in spection to keep the inherently dishon- est competitor in check.
 When cranberries were selling at II cents quart dry measure, and were so sold by all of the merchants in Rochester, an enterprising dealer ad- vertised them for 10 cents a quart and gave liquid quart, trying to undo the good work, of the efficient sealer of that city. To meet this competition at least fifteen other dealers in that same neighborhood immediately drop ped their prices to ten cents and were using liquid measures. Of course. lO cents quart liquid measure is con- Siderably more expensive than II cents a quart dry measure. AS the local sealer was known to the proprietor of the store he could not very well se- cure the evidence and so he called up on the State Department of Weights and Measures. With a witness the State official entered the store and purchased some commodities among them some cranberrieS. The evidence of fraud was easily secured and the proprietor convicted. Within three hours after conviction all of the other fifteen dealers returned to the honest and full measure. Here. clearly, was a case of dishonesty necessitated through competition.

NEW HAVEN WOMAN WHO MARRIED CHINAMAN GETS
 ESTATE WORTH s16O. .OOO

New Haven. July 22-To Elizabeth Maude Jerome of this city and New York has been awarded the entire es- tate of her grandfather. Hezekiah Gill bert, amounting to $160,00O. Nearly a quarter of a century ago she braved her family's displeasure by marrying Yan Phou Lee, a Chinese student at Yale. Their married life was un- happy, and she obtained a divorce nearly twenty years ago.
 Mir. Gilberts will ordered that his estate go to his wife. Jane. for life and that on her death Elizabeth ter ome, his daughter. was to have the life use of it. gJpon her death it was to go to her daughter. Elizabeth Maude Jerome. if she were married at the time.
 No formal contest was raised over the technical question whether Eliza beth Maude Jerome is married or not at the present time. Judge Studley said in the Probate court yesterday that, in the eyes of the court. she was married just as if she had not ob- tained a divorce. She has two chill dren, who. in appearance, resemble their father.
 Mrs. Jerome has spent much of her time in travel. and has lived mostly in this city when in America

BRIDGEPORT NAVAL RESERVES GOING
 ON LOUISIANA
Battleship Now Anchored Off New Haven Breakwater Will Take Local Tars For Fleet ManeuverS

Arriving in the New Haven harbor, late yesterday afternoon. the United States Navy tug Patatsco. the largest tug on the eastern coast. caused con- siderable excitement along the water front and heralded by a few hours the twinkling lights of the United States battleship Louisiana which steamed into the Sound and which is now an- breakwater. The Patatsco, a tug of about 250 tons burden. is a decidedly novel sight in the New Haven har- Dor.
 The battleship Louisiana steamed in- to the Sound late last night and at a late hour its twinklinga lights could be seen as she was anchored far off the bank near the middle breakwater. The arrival of both vessels marks the departure of the Connecticut jack tars' for the fleet maneuvers. which will be the most instructive and inter esting held in years. The second and third divisions of the Naval Reserves from Hartford and Bridgeport, respec- lively, will be transported by the Pa tatsco to the Louisiana Saturday morn ing at o'clock Both companies will assemble in New Haven.
 The Elm City boys who are to steam to Hampton Roads in the Machias, all members of the First Division of the Naval Reserves, will leave that city at flood tide tonight. The New Haven boys will be given twenty-four hours shore leave upon reaching Hampton Roads. The First Division will be under the command of Lieutenant Maynard.
 At Hampton Roads the Machias will meet the fleet under the command of Captain Marsh, composed of the bat tleShipS Chicago, Isle de Cuba, and two monitors, which will carry the naval divisions from New Jersey and the District of Columbia. These vessels with the Machias will take part in the fleet maneuvers. The Second and Third Divisions on the Louisiana will steam to Province Town where they will also join the fleet.
 A detail from Norfolk Navy Yard visited Lieut.. Maynard last night and following the visit were sent to the Naval Militia Club in Morris Cove where they put up for the night.
 The MachfaS was scheduled to leave the Brooklyn Navy Yards this morn ing at 10 o'clock and will arrive in New Haven harbor at o'clock this afternoon.
 The navy tug Patatsco. although the largest tug on the seacoast. had very rough trip from Norfolk to New Ha- ven. She is commanded by Captain Haydn Williams, with Charles s. Wolfe as chief engineer. After carrying the "tarS'' to the Louisiana the tug will steam back to Norfolk.

NEW HAVEN SLEUTHS FAIL
 AND CHATFIELD GO. OFFERS REWARD FOR STORE BURGLAR

New Haven, July 2a.-An unique eff fort is being made by the Chatfield Paper Company of 298-302 State street, to ferret out the identity of the per- son or persons who committed the bur- glary which was perpetrated at their office some time between 2 o'clock Sat- urday afternoon and o'clock Monday morning. In that space of time the safe of the company was opened by some one who discovered the combi- nation and the sum of $100 was Secur- ed in cash.
 Evidently not pinning the utmost confidence in the local detective bu- reau which has been notified of the case, and which is working on 1t now, the company. anxious to achieve re- suits so as to punish those responsi- ble and put an end to such annoyance and losses, is now publishing an un usual advertisement offering a reward of $50 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any one seen entering, leaving or hanging around the premises during the time in Ques- ton.
 The action taken in this case is very unusual. The case was put in the hands of the detective bureau early in the week and so far it appears no re- suits whatever have been secured. The company is very anxious to locate the criminal and it would appear on the face of the matter that it has not that supreme confidence in the achievements of the detective bu- reau
 There have been quite few bur- glaries in the city of late. Not all of them have been made public, the de- tective bureau seeming to think it wise to keep them quiet. It is con- tended by some that more publicity might have 8. good effect. At least it would put business men and others more on their guard if fhev knexu that burglars were turning off jobs Ap- parently keeping such burglaries quiet has not effected any extraordinary amount of captures

Gov. Weeks reiteration of his refusal Co become a candidate for renomina- tion. leaves but two aspirants to the Republican nomination. Lake and Goodwin. In the Farmers judgment, neither should receive the plum. Though both have declared, more or less plainly. for the creation of a pub ijc utilities commission, it is our be- lief that both are tarred with the cor porate stick. and that the Republican party could go further and fare bet ter. They are not the only members of the party who are qualified for the office. For instance. Stiles Judson and George B. Chandler! But there Is probably little chance of either be- ing even "mentioned'' in the conven- tion. for the pins have evidently been set for one of the two. Lake and Goodwin with corporate interests car ing little which is tie winner
 There is a fine opportunity for the Democratic party. With the right man. it can probably elect it's candi- date. for the people are heartily tired of being "thimblerigged' in the inter est of the corporations.

Congressman Fowler of New Jersey, one of the victims of Cannonism in the House. is a candidate for the seat now occupied by Senator Kean who is classed not only as a regular of the regulars but as a representative of spe- cial interests. MT. Fowler is one of the ablest members of the House, par ticularly on financial questions.
 In recent speech, he defended In- surgency, and called Ex-President Roosevelt "the great twentieth century Insurgent." The issue. he said, was the people vs. boss rule and legalized privilege-"equity. justice and a square deaF' vs. dollars and cents'' Insur- gency, he said, "is a struggle for a government of. by and for the peo- ple.''
 Such a speech ought, in the present status of public sentiment, to send MT. Fowler to the Senate. but New Jersey is the mother of most of the big trusts and Senator Kean is credited with be- ing especially friendly toward them. He was one of the Me Too'' regulars who followed Aldrich's lead upon the tariff bill.

s.STR AIGHT ANSWER" SHOULD BE,
 COMPREHENSIVE.

Speaker Cannon's obstinacy in re- fusing to withdraw his candidacy for reelection to the Speakership. seems surprising to Republican organs. It should not be surprising. He evidently bases his candidacy upon the favor of the Taft Administration and of the -egulars in general He is clearly persona zrata at the White House. and it may be recalled that President Taft has never uttered a word against Can nonism. Why should not Cannon's obstinacy be of the firmest type?
 If the next House should be Repub- lican. and if the influence of the Taft Administration and the power and cash of the Republican Congressional committee should suffice to materially lessen the number of Insurgents, Speaker Cannon will probably be re- nominated by the House Republican caucus. The logic of the situation would so demand, for are not Cannon ism and regularity synonymous terms :? The Republican regulars would con- reject Cannon.
 The Republican Congressional com mittee will not be hampered by any lack of cash; way has been provided for its collection. and for non-publicity of the contributors identities until after the election. The interests know that a crisis in the protection and continuation of their special priv ileges is at hand. and if money can carry the November election they will supply it. This cash will be used against the election of Insurgents. and the Administration will aid to the full extent of it's power.4 Speaker Cannon's daily and venomous denunciation of them points the way. as. did also a recent speech by Vice President sher- man. gskssk.,.., -s-.s ss,
 If Republican can didates are are to be asked. as the Hartford Courant has suggested. "a straight question. and "a straight answer exacted. with re- gard to their action upon the Cannon candidacy. the question should cover not only their votes in caucus but also their votes in the House. for the eau GUS will undoubtedly be controlled by the regulars. A vote against Cannon in the caucus will be merely an inef- fective rebuke of the Speaker. If the straight answer is to possess any real value it must be a pledge to vote against Cannon in the House if he be renominated by the caucus. as he prob ably will be.
 Republican candidates who may be elected without giving such pledge, can be counted on as either Pro-Can- non or certain to support him when renominated by the caucus upon the plea of regularity"

sQuATTER RIGHT
Occupants Can Acquire Title
Under Recent Ruling of the
Department - :. i

Washington, March 24.-"Squat-
ters" upon unsurveyed lands within
the national forests, who have occu-
pied their tracts continuously since
before the creation of the forests, and
who have complied with the home-
stead law, have had their rights in
creased by an order which has Just
been issued by the secretary of agri-
! culture. Such settlers can now ac-
quire title, prior to survey to 100
acres, full homestead entry, wher.
ever possible.
The new order relates to the act
of June IL. 1906, which permits the
secretary to list for settlement land
within the national forests which he
finds chiefly valuable for agriculture.
The object of the order is to provide
for the listing of the full amount of
land which the occupant would re-
ceive IL he exercised his option of
awaiting the government survey, ir-
respective of whether or not the en-
tire area is cultivated provided the
claim is bonafide and the land is not
more valuable for its timber than for
agriculture.
In cases where less than 160 acres
have been listed to person who
settled upon the land prior to the
creation of the forest and additional
area sufficient to complete the home-
stead entry will be allowed upon ap-
pliCatiOn.

most important of recent sales of
modern pictures was commenced to-
day at the Fifth avenue art galleries
and will be concluded tomorrow. 1t
comprises the collection of paintings
belonging to the estate of the late
Charles Nj. kurtz.
MIR. kurtz not only had exceptional
opportunities through his connection
with the Buffalo academy to become
acquainted with the best in modern
art, but he had his peculiar flair" for
the art that has not yet arrived which
is the making of collector of modern
means. His favorite pictures among
those not yet known in an exhibition
frequently turned out the prize win
ners. His collection contains, among
many interesting items. number of
paintings by the Glasgow school,
which has been little known in New
York. There are also paintings by
Ralph Blakelock, William M. Chase.

ROOSEVELT TO SEE POPE
Ex.PREsIDENT WILL ALSO BE RE.
CEIvED BY KING OF ITALY.

Rome, March 24.-The work is co.
ing on actively for the arrangements
in connection with Col. Roosevelt's
arrival and stay in Rome. and es-
pecially with regard to the visits he
will pay the king and pope.
The Fairbanks incident, provoked
by the former vice presidents address
in the Methodist church and the con-
sequent cancellation of his audience
with the pope, is too recent to require
recapitulation, and. as every one can
easily understand, it has had an in
fluence on the negotiations going on
for the settlement of Col. Roosevelt's g
plans here.
When Mrs. Roosevelt arrived in
Naples and stayed few days watt
ing for the steamer which took her
to Egypt, Ambassador Leishman went
to Naples to discuss with her several
questions of ceremonial and etiquette
regarding the notification of her hus-
bands arrival in Rome to the royal
court in order that an audience with
the king could be arranged and the
duration of his stay In Rome fixed
