Committee Is Investigating
Facts Regarding Prices
Elsewhere.

An investigation to ascertain how
much buying is done by Washington
people in Baltimore, Philadelphia, and
other cities Is to be started by the
home trade committee of the Retail
Merchants Association of the Chamber
Of Commerce. of which M. A. Leese Is
chairman. At the initial meeting OF the
committee yesterday afternoon dis
cussion Of the subject occurred, and the
belief expressed that If there is found
to be any considerable amount Of trad
ing done out of town, measures should
be taken to keep 1t at home.
1t was not denied that the impression
prevails that shopping can be done more
cheaply in Baltimore than in this mar
ket, but It was pointed out by the
chairman and by w. M. Balderson and
Milford Workman that no cheaper prices
for the same goods can be obtained else
where.
Washington merchants believe that
they are entitled to the trade of Wash
ington people, and that they can show
that those who go outside to make their
purchases can do as well, II not better,

Fine Band Concert.
The Fifteenth Cavalry Band. stationed
in a corner Of the hall, gave fine con-
cert program. The leader selected for
the list of numbers selections from the
popular light opers. familiar to every
one of the boys of the newsboy corps
The whistling accompaniment from
more than 1900 throats showed that the
boys enjoyed the music.
The entire drill was under direction of
Capt. G. c. Barnhardt, adjutant of the
Fifteenth Cavalry. The program was as
follows:
Musical drill. Troop A, Fifteenth
Cavalry; Captain Lindsey commanding.
Broadsword contest, detachment. Troop

The drill was begun at and ended
at $50 o'clock. The special cars were
on hand and the trip back to Washing

home journey was like the out trip.
There had been cheers and shouts from
the time the first boys appeared at 6,
to the time of arrival at the fort, and
more cheers through the drill. But
from the fort back to Washington the
continuous shouts of the happy news
boys rang out along the line.
There was no shadow Of doubt but
that the boys enjoyed themselves and
appreciated the outing provided by the

years before the marriage. had been
acquainted with Robinson, who spent
most of his time in her company when
the ST. Louis was at Southampton.
According to the young wife, Robin
son, who was a handsome young man,
over six feet in height, of fair hair and
blue eyes, wanted to marry her, but her
parents objected on the score Of her
youth. Eventually the young couple
took the matter into their own hands
and were secretly married at the South
ampton registry office.
Three days later, Robinson sailed
away, promising to send for his bride,
but beyond several letters since received
Mrs. Robinson has seen nothing Of him
The last letter Mrs. Robinson received
from her husband was in January, 1910
written on board the New York-Porto
Rico steamer San Juan, of which he
was then first officer. In this letter he
then spoke of settling in New York and
sending for her. Since then nothing has
been seen or heard of him, and, as the
marriage caused friction with her par
ents, the young wife has earned her own
living as a waitress.

One thousand of The Times newsboys
and another thousand from other papers
invaded Fort Myer last night. Tho
cornmandant, Colonel Garrard, capitu-
lated even before the invaders arrived.
and he turned his men Of the Fifteenth
United States Cavalry out in an exhibi-
ton drill that "skun the circus a mile"
as the boys said on their trip home.
The second annual exhibition drill,
complimentary to the newsboys Of
washington. was the occasion of the in
vasion Of the fort. And the crack
troops Of the Fifteenth Cavalry never
drilled better and never appeared before
an audience that appreciated the work
as much or applauded more heartily
and sincerely than did this crowd Of
newsboys.
To hundreds of others besides the
newsboys this outing was a treat
Crowds along the Avenue stood and
watched and smiled and renewed their
youth in the enthusiasm and scramble
of the horde of youngsters for their
tickets. Circulation Manager o. w.
Kennedy, Of The Times, was a great
man with this crowd. but Pete" was
the man whose name was on every
tongue. pete is John H. Peters, who
gave out the tickets to The Times con-

admission tickets that he had melted

yet every boy who was entitled to the
outing was reached.
Big Rush at Seven.
At came the grand rush. Out across
fha ~ Thirtaanth Gfra
and Pennsylvania avenue poured The
Times army. They stood not on the
order Of their going, but there was no
mistake or delay in their arrival at
the station of the Washington, Alexan-
dria and Mt. Vernon Electric railway.
The scenes ard doings at The Times
office were duplicated at other offices
and the same station was the final
rallying point for the other armies.
Ample car provisions had been made
by the Street Railway Company for
handling of the crowd. There were cars
enough SO that all the boys found
place to ride. Without delay or acci-
dent the crowd of restless and i'm
patient young manhood was taken to
the fort and back again.
The drill was held in the immense
drill shed. The absence of the artillery,
now at the Mexican border, necessi-
tated the omission Of exhibition work
by that branch of the service. But the
