TWO AGENTS ARE INDICTED.
Supreme Court Holds Statute Of Limi-
tations Doesn't Apply In AdoIph
Sesal Csse-Government to
Start After Heads.

Washington, Dec. 13.-Through de-
cision of the United States supreme
court the prosecution of John Il. Par
sons and five other directors of the
sugar trust under the criminal section
of the Sherman antitrust law is made
possible. The prosecution will be un-
der indictments already returned
against the seven directors charging
them with violating the sherman law
in the acquisition and suppression Of
the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining com
pany of Philadelphia, the controlling
interest in which was held by Adolph
Segal.
The decision OF the supreme court
was d reversal Of that Of Judge Holt
of the circuit court in the cases Of
Gustave E. Kissel and Thomas r.
Harmed, two agents of the trust. ks
sci and Harmed were indicted with
Mr.. Parsons and the other directors
July l, 1909. They interposed plea
in bar to the indictment, reciting that
a conspiracy such as charged in the
Indictment was not continuous and
that the statute Of limitations had in
tervened to prevent prosecution. Judge
Holt sustained this plea.
The supreme court holds that the
conspiracy was continuous and the
statute OF limitations could not be
pleaded in bar The FIVE directors In
dicted made no plea then, but the
prosecution Of their cases has been
held pending the outcome OF the ap.
peal to the supreme court by Kissel
and Harmed.
Attorney General Wickersham and
United States District Attorney Wise
of New York, both of whom were in
court when the decision was made
said it meant the prosecution not only
Of Kissel and Harmed, but of Mr.. Par
sons and the other directors.
The other directors under indictment
are Washington B. Thomas, Arthur B
Donner, Charles II. Sneff, John Mayer
and George II. Frazier.
The indictments are based on the
shutting down of the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining company in 1904 by
Kissel, who, acting in the interests Oi
the American Sugar Refining company
had bought up majority of the stocl
and controlling interest in the bond,
Of the company. Parsons and othel
members Of the sugar trust, it is said
refused to let Segal, who was at the
head of the Philadelphia concern, op
crate long enough to pay off the debts
Of the company.

A Camel,s Stomach.

The stomach of a camel is divided
INTO four compartments, and the walls
Of one Of these are lined with large
cells, every one of which can he opened
and closed at will by means Of power
full muscles When a camel drinks II
drinks a very great deal. Indeed, 1t
goes drinking on for such very long
time that really you would think that
1t never meant to leave off. But the
fact is that it is not only satisfying
its thirst, but is filling up its cistern
as well. One after another the cells
in its stomach are filled with the water,
and as soon as each is quite full 1t Is
tightly closed Then when the animal
becomes thirsty a few hours later all
that it has to do is TO open one OF
the cells and allow the water to flow
out. Next day il opens one or two
more cells, and so 1t goes on day after
day until the whole supply is ex'
hausted. In this curious way a camel
can live five or even six days without
drinking at all and so is able to travel
quite easily through the desert, where
the wells are often hundreds Of miles

SENATORS CLEAR LORIMER
Unanimously Decide That Testimony
Does Not Prove Bribery Charqes.


Washington, Dec. 13.-The subcom-
nittee of the senate which has been
investigating the charges of bribery in
connection with the election of Scna-
tor William Lorimer Of Illinois de-
eided unanimously that the testimony
does not prove any Of the charges
made.
Several criminal prosecutions in Hi
nois have grown out of the charges
that Senator Lorimer bribed legisla-
tors TO obtain his senate seat. While
some of these were holding public in
terest last fall ex-President Roosevelt
refused to attend dinner in Chicago

Vited. Lorimer's invitation was with
drawn, and Roosevelt appeared at the
banquet and made a speech. Previous
to that President Taft had attended a
similar banquet in the same city and
made no objection TO Lorimer. who

Aviator Says She Was Never Legally
Divorced From First Husband.
New York, Dec. Exchanging that
his wife had another husband living
from whom she had never been legally
divorced when she married him, Au-
gustus Il. Post, the balloonist, who
has figured in many daring flights, has
brought to the supreme court a suit
for the annulment of his marriage.
The action is the elimination of a
romance that began on shipboard in
1897, and, although the woman is
twenty years his senior, the difference
in their ages didn't deter him in the
least from pressing his suit, and not
long after their meeting they were
married.
Mrs. Post denies the charge. Be
fore she consented to be married to
Post, she said, she got the late Su-
preme Court Justice Russell to look
into her case, and he told her she was
free to marry again.

The Perfect Living ?--=-'


After all the modern house deco
rators have said their last word OH
the subject it would be hard to find
anything half so satisfactory as the
simple rules given by William Morris
for the making Of perfect room. The
woman who is planning to rearrange
her house this fall with a view to add
ing to its comfort and attractiveness
would do well to read over what VIII
liam Norris wrote about the furnish
ing Of the living room.
perhaps It will not try your pa
tience too much" he writes, IF l lay
before you my idea of the fittings nee
essary to the sitting room OF a healthy
person-first a bookcase with a great
many books in 1t, next a table that
will keep steady when you write or
work at 1t, then several chairs that
you can move and bench that you
can sit or lie upon; next a cupboard
with drawers; next, unless either the
bookcase or the cupboard be very
beautiful with painting or carving,
you will want pictures or engravings,
such as you can afford, only not stop
gaps, but real works OF art upon the
wall, or else the wall itself must be
ornamented with some beautiful or
restful pattern. We shall also want
a vase or two to put flowers in, which
latter you must have sometimes, espe-
cially If you live in town. Then there
will be the fireplace, Of course, which
in our climate is bound to be the chief
object In the room"

his lips. Within an hour after he died
a charge Of murder was made against
Dominick Branda, supposed lifelong
friend of the victim.

Nov. 80. He had refused to pay at
