pudding dish and put layer or APP
pies on the bottom, then sprinkle
with cinnamon, nutmeg, or any pre-
ferred spice (allspice is good, and
sugar, and dot with bits of butter;
over this layer place another layer of
apples and spices, and on top of this
put thick layer of sifted bread
crumbs; or the bread may only be
finely rolled. Cover the pudding
tightly and steam for an hour, then
uncover, set in the oven and brown.
Or, the pudding may have very lit
tie water added, and set, covered, in
the oven to bake slowly. About half
as much crumbs as apples may be
used. Amy preferred sauce may be
used when served hot. Or, instead
of the crumbs, a nice, light batter
may be poured over the top for ..
crust, making a few holes in it as it
bakes to let out the steam.
Pears are now plentiful in the mar
ket, and they make excellent COM
pote. Peel, leaving the stems on,
and gently simmer until pink and
transparent in syrup made of a cup
full of sugar and one OF water, adding
a slice of lemon; when the fruit is
done, skim out of the syrup and al
low to boil down quite thick pour
this over the fruit and serve quite
cold. Whipped cream may be served
with this dish if liked.
For a peach cobbler, peel the
peaches, but do not pit, and put them
on to simmer in very little water, if
the cling-stones are used. Make Il
good pie crust, not flaky, but like
short-cake dough; butter the baking
dish and line the sides, but not the
bottom with the crust. If the peaches
are free stones, and very ripe, fill the
pan with them after removing the
pits. If cling stones are used, when
they are tender let cool a little, then
turn them with the Juice in which
they have been stewed into the pan;
add a heaping cupful Of sugar and a
spoonful of butter roll out top
crust, make two or three Sits in it,
and cover the fruit. Bake in a moder-
ate oven, and when done turn out,
bottom up, on a big meat platter; or,
lift the top crust, lay it on the platter,
cut into portions and put the fruit and
the rich syrup over it, and serve. 1t
is best eaten cold; but can be used
warm.
Cider sauce to be used with boiled
ham, is made in this wise: Put one
pint of sweet, fresh cider, a couple OF
whole cloves, half a dozen pepper
corns and a bay leaf to boil in por-
celain vessel, letting boil for five
minutes. Have ready cream sauce
by beating together one tablespoonful
of flour and one of butter and stirring
it into half a pint of boiling water,
seasoning well. Add the white sauce
to the spiced cider and cook ten min
utes longer.
Green Tomato Soy-Four quarts of
green tomatoes chopped small; six
onions, one quart OF vinegar, one
pound of sugar, one tablespoonful
each of ground mustard, ground
black pepper, and salt; half table
spoonful each of allspice and cloves,
ground. Put all together in pre-
serving kettle and stew, stirring often
until tender, then pack into glass jars
and seal alright. Do not use for one
month.

During the night fifty bodies were re-
covered and eight wounded men were
rescued from that part of the vessel
which remained exposed when she
sank. These men had been pinned in
the ruins from sixteen to twenty-four
hours, Most of them were uncon-

lacked the assistance that their cries
otherwise would have given in locat-

MADE NEW USE Of
RUBBER STOCKING
Contained Pockets in Which
Gems Were Struggled
Into Country

New York. Sept. ga rubber
stocking and a petticoat with twenty
five pockets in it are the means by
which Rudolph Newman, a Chicago
jeweler, and his wife, are alleged to
have tried to smuggle diamonds and
other precious stones and jewelry into
this country. Today they arrived on
the steamship Nieuw Amsterdam of
the Holland American line, accom-
panied by two small children. New
man when arraigned by United States
Commissioner Russ, furnished $4,000
bail while Mrs. Newman was paroled
on her own recognizance on account
of her two children, who needed her
care
There has not, according to the GUS
toms authorities, been such a fragrant
case Of alleged smuggling reported
at the customs house in months past.
In the rubber stocking, which New
man wore tied about the lower portion
of his body. the customs officials say
they found a quantity of uncut dia-
monds valued at about $1,000 and in
the pockets Of his wife's petticoat
numerous packages of small jewelry
and a number of garnets and other
stones. said to be worth about $4,000.
All the jewels were seized.
Had 1t not been for the fact that
Newman was under suspicion because
of his frequent trips to Europe, the
gems probably would have remained
lundetected. the officials said. SO art
fully were they concealed.

United States Will Appeal
From Decision of Federal
District Court
ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO
OEFRAUD THE GOVERNMENT
Two Men Filed on Alaska Coal Claims
For Fictitious Persons Until They
Had Secured Five Thousand Acres
Of Land For Themselves.

Washington, Sept. 26.-The federal
government will mark the opening of
the coming term of the supreme court
OF the United States by appealing for
the punishment of several alleged in
stances of attempt to defraud the
United States. These have been ad-
vanced for early hearing.
The case likely to be the hardest
fought is the so-called "Stracy coal
land case"
The United States has appealed to
the court to reverse the action of the
United States circuit court for the
Western Washington district in
quashing the indictment against
Charles A. Munday and Archie w.
Shields. charged with others of
conspiracy to defraud the United
States OF approximately 5000 acres
OF coal lands in Alaska by means Of
false and fictitious locations and en-
tries, ostensibly for the benefit of the
persons respectively in whose names
the entries were to be made, but in
fact for the benefit of two corpora
tions. The lower court held that the
Goa! land laws of the United States
applicable to Alaska did not prohibit
the acquiestion of coal land by the
means charged in the indictment.

PRESIDENT MARHAM Of

That There Is No Danger Of the
Federated Shop Employees Going Out
in Sympathy.

Chicago. Sept. 26.-The possibility
OF the strike Of the clerks Of the H.
iinots Central railroad extending to
Chicago was secuted by the officials
OF the road today. They were inclin-
ed to minimize the Importance of the
strike In the south and indicated that
traffic would resume its normal con-
ditions by tomorrow.
All members of the clerks union
employed by the Illinois Central are
ordered to strike today by an order
issued last night by j. j. Carrigan.
president Of the union.
While many clerks in the southern
titles struck last night, the officers
OF the railroad said that they did not
fear q general strike of the employees.
although the recent strike of the Fed
eral Shop Employees might be revived
by way Of sympathy. President Mark
nam Of the Illinois Central said the
strike Of the clerks thus far was of
little consequence.
Il guess this Is just the aftermath
OF the Federal Shop Employees con-
troversy," said Markham. "a few
clerks walked out without warning at
New Orleans, Memphis and Jackson
and at Memphis q few shopmen
struck IN sympathy. This is the only
place where the shopmen struck.
None Of the employees in Chicago quit
and those In the south are now
warned"

President Wallace will be displeased
with wrangles. Therefore. before this
years meeting he made It known that
the delegates who came here to work
would be welcomed, but that those
whose purpose was to turn the con-
gress into debating society were not

A significant fact which has caused
comment from many delegates is that
neither of the three pioneer conser-

ty generally.
President Taft" said Senator PEN
rose, ACTED In good faith In nexotist-
Ing the reciprocity agreement and In
urging congress to pass It, He was
convinced that larger and freer trade
relations between the two countries
would result In enormous benefits to
both.
There Is no reason to suppose that
the failure Of the compact will have
any bearing upon President Taft's
political future or upon the prospects
Of the Republican party. The reci.
procity legislation was never q party
measure and its passage by congress
! was only rendered possible by prac-
tically the united support Of the Denl-
ocrats In the house and senate.
Its passage was opposed by q large
body of regular Republicans, who
felt that It was inconsistent with the
protective doctrine and by insurgents
from the northweatern states; who
believed that by It their agricultural
constituencies were menaced.
Reconciliation Due.
$50 far rs these elements Of opposi-
ton In the Republican party are con-
cerned, they ought to become moro
readily reconciled now that the COM
pact has not been agreed to and the
issue has been closed.
'Rumors were heard during tho
closing days Of congress that Canada
would not agree to reciprocity. The
opposition to It In Canada waa we'll
organized and we'll equipped. while its
advocates had to rely upon sentiments

Canada Is protective country an
| the United States is. Moreover, the
talk Of closer trade relations brought
on suggestions of ultimate merger of
and even of annexation, and these
suggestions doubtless fomented the
opposition among the Canadians,
whose nationalism and imperialistic
sentiments are very strong. Appeals
to the patriotism of the people were
made in this connection and these too
were effective.
| 1--WE must remember also that the
Canadians have spent enormous sums
in developing their trans-continental
railroad systems and their foreign
shipping facilities. The business Gre
ated thereby might have been endang-
cred, in the opinion Of many Cana
dians, by the DETECTION of traffic
south through the United States as a
consequence Of reciprocity,
"The result emphatically and eff
fectively contradicts the arguments
made in congress during the debates
upon this subject that the agreement
was one-sdded and altogether in favor
of Canada. The outcome does not eff
feet the general tariff situation in
congress,
"The people of the United States
now have the advantage of position
inasmuch as they have taken the first
step toward the establishment of clos
er and freer relations with our north
ern neighbors. We cannot, for some
time. at least, he criticised for any
tariff barriers that may exist on the
