NOW THEY CAN'T TELL
WHAT is ON THE WAY
Weather Sharps Admit Atmos.
pheric Conditions Are Battling.

Predictions of more billiards. to come
were not quite so much in evidence on
the lips of the weather sharps today.
At Branch Brook and at Washington
the officials came forth with state
ments saying that such unsettled at
mospheric conditions are prevailing
that it's really impossible to tell any
thing about what's going to happen
more surely than probably viii come
rain or snow before the day is DONE
Professor Wiener thought 1t probable
that blizzard now pirouetting some
where up the st. Lawrence valley
might switch its tail in this towns
face, but he wouldn't make that state
ment on his honor, and he said in the
next breath that the rising temperature
made things look a bit as though the
blizzard had been shunted off for good
The temperature did rise. In two
days it has taken a tremendous uplift,
soaring from eleven degrees early Tues
day morning to thirty-six degrees at
the four corners at noon today. 1t had
walked up from thirty-t three since five
this morning and the prognosticators
said. 1t hadn't reached its height yet.
So, maybe, there'll be still a chance
for the humble grounding which has
been slapped and swatted this year as
he never was before-since he came out
with his shadowless prophesy of an
early spring.

OPPONENTS AGREE ON
TRUCE IN HONDURAS,

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 8.-Presi-
dent DaviIa, of Honduras, and General
Bonilla, his revolutionary opponent
have agreed to an armistice. This in
formation was received by the State
department in kilograms from Teguci-
galpa and Puerto Cortez.
AS result of the acceptance by the
government of the condition imposed
by General Bonilla, to the effect that
the revolutionists should be permitted
to occupy the evacuated city of Puerto
Cortez, American Consul Claude /.
Dawson, at Puerto Cortez, today ad-
vised the state department that GEN
eral Bonilla also had consented to an
armistice The revolutionary soldiers,
the consul added have occupied Puerto
Cortez. Detachments of American and
British sailors from the vessels lying
in the harbor of Puerto Cortez, the
consul said, are stationed at San Pedro
Sula for the protection of foreign prop
erty interests.
AS the armistice was arranged
through the friendly mediation of the
United States, the American govern
ment will have representative present
at the conferences of the commissioners
of President Davila and General Bo-
nilla, which will be held for the pur-
pose of permanently terminating the
conflict.

MRS. MARTIN IS
TAKEN TO PRISON
FOR 7-YEAR Term
Will Begin Her Sentence To-
night-Departure Hastened
by Action in Snead Case.

Mrs. Caroline B. Martin was taken
to the State prison at Trenton on the
Pennsylvania train leaving the Mar
ket street station at 1928 this
afternoon. and tonight starts serv-
ing the seven-year term meted out
to her for the death of her daughter,
Ocey w. NJ. Snead. November rs, 1909.
Mrs. Martin was accompanied by
Warden Richard McGuinness, of this
Jail, Mrs, McGuinness, the matron
and Constable Philip McManus,
Departure Hsstened.
1t was intended to take Mrs. Martin
to Trenton tomorrow, but following the
quashing of the Indictment against
Mrs. Snead yesterday 1t was decided
TO remove her from the county jail this
afternoon.
When informed of the change of
plans Mrs. Martin took the matter phil
osophically and said ''It might just az
well come now as any other time" A
scene was expected when Mrs. Martin
was told to get ready to go to prison,
but without a word she commenced to
pack up the mass of papers she intended
taking with her and seemingly well
coined the change that will take her
out of the Jail where she has been
confined for over thirteen months.
Mrs. Martin was not taken to the
depot in the regular prison van, but
went from the Jail to the depot in a
carriage with her sister and the war
den and his wife.

n. Y. DEMOCRATIC
MEETING FAILS
TO END DEADLOCK
Insurgents Stand Firm Against
Sheehan in Secret Ses-
sion Today.

ALBANY. N. Y, Feb. s.--An unsuc-
cessful effort to end the senatorial
deadlock in this State was made by the
Democrats today. A conference of the
majority members was held behind
closed doors and lasted nearly three
hours. When 1t adjourned it was said
that no agreement had been reached.
The conference, however, was ad-
journed subject to a call of the chair,
and the efforts to reach a compromise
will be continued.
There was considerable talk prior to
the conference of concessions from each
side, but the insurgent rank and file
did not hesitate to say that no relief
was in sight so long as William Il.
Sheehan remained a candidate. eff"
they said Mr.. Sheehan would agree
to withdraw the chances are we could
all get together on some man accept
able to the entire party membership p
both in the Legislature and in the
State at large. Such an agreement
probably could be reached today, GER
tainly by tomorrow, and, while the
party has suffered from dissensions,
there remains enough time left of the
session to smooth out the differences
to the end that all of us may work
together and carry out Governor Dix's
business program for the good of the
party and the State That would place
us in a good position to go before the
people at the next election. Mr.. Muir
ply and Mr.. Sheehan hold the key 70
the situation. Obviously they although
controlling the majority. cannot elect
a senator without our aid; and 1t is
just as true that we will not help to
elect Mr.. Sheehan'
Spokesman Named.
Before the conference assembled
there was a tentative arrangement
among the anti-Sheehan men that
Senator Roosevelt would speak for the
signatory insurgents, Assemblyman
Shortt for those who did not sign the
antt-Sheehan pact and Assemblyman
O'Connor for the independence
Leaguers. Each of these men before
entering the. conference declared that
nothing had happened to change his
views as to proper senatorial candi-
date, and, so far as known, the other
insurgents, to man. held to the same
position. The roll-call showed only one
insurgent absentee, and efforts were
made to locate him.
When the conference got down to
business there were speeches by sew
eral insurgents declaring that the only
possible basis of agreement was the
withdrawal OF William F. Sheehan
from the contest. The organization
speakers, Senator Thomas F. Grady
and Dr. Bush, the latter the nominal
tor Of Mr.. Sheehan in the caucus, took
the position that the majority must
rule. and declared that the withdrawal
of Mr.. Sheehan could not be considered.
The conference adjourned at 1920.
The nineteenth joint ballot for United
States Senator. taken today, resulted
in no choice. The vote:
Observation-Disclosures, Sc; Shepard, 10;
Herman. 8; Glynn, g. Littleton 8;
O'Brien. 2; Parker. 1; Sulzer. /; Tay-
lor, 1.

PRESIDENT BIDS
CONGRESS VOTE
ON RECIPROCITY
Threatens Extra Session if
There Is No Agreement
on Canada Treaty.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.--If admins
tration senators had any doubt about
the attitude of President Taft toward
the Canadian reciprocity agreement Ii
was removed when Senators Crane and
Carter returned to the Capitol today
from a conference with the President
at the White House. The message
which these senators brought to their
colleagues was that there must be a
vote on the agreement at the present
session OF Congress will be called back
in extra session almost Immediately
after adjournment on March 4.
Although Messrs. Crane and Carter
declined to discuss their mission to the
White House, the report soon leaked
out that the President would insist
upon q vote. 1t is said he made plain
his belief that the country generally
favored the adoption of reciprocal
trade agreement with Canada; that the
Mccall bill TO put the agreement into
force will pass the House with a large
majority and that the Senate would
enact the measure If given an oppor-
tunity to vote upon It,.
The rules of the Senate, which per
NIT untrammeled discussion of meas
ure. are the principal barriers to a vote
in that body. 1t is known that Sen
ators Hepburn and Bailey are bitterly
opposed to the agreement, and that the
opposition extends also to most of the
Progressive Republicans who represent
agricultural States. Some of these
senators have hinted that their rela-
tions with the White House have not
been sufficiently pleasant of late to
cause them to exert themselves in sup
port of an administration measure.
Senators Crane and Carter entered at
once upon a campaign designed to ad
vance the Presidents program. AL
ready they have conferred with other
senators who are especially friendly To
the administration and have sought to
enlist their services in a movement to
obviate the necessity of an extra ses-
sion.

Ideas About Furs.

THE fashionable new big muff has
valuable possibilities for the woman
who has an old, half-worn muff or a
fashioned into one of the big muffs with a
telling effect One woman has beaut1-
full big muff made from an old squirrel
muff whose edges were worn shabby. A
furrier ripped tho old muff to pieces, cut
it into long, narrow strips and made it up
with gray satin. 1t is in the new, fash
ionable model, strip Of fur and a strip
of the shirred satin. The woman who Is
deft with her needle can make the muff
for herself, since the lining is simple and
the muff is really nothing more than a
sort of fiat bag for the hands.
Just now pieces of fur which happen to
be in the family treasure box are also
used to make bands for the new gar.
ments and hats. In cutting fur use g
sharp penknife. which penetrates the Skin
easily. Do not use the scissors, as this
method destroys the beauty of the fur.
When you refine your muff, sew in thu
lining q little pocket with a clamp flap
In this pocket you may place your small
purse, knowing that no difference how yol
carry the muff the purse Is secure and II
easy reach.
To clean any kind Of white furs or hairy
cloths, such as Zibeline, make a paste OF
cornstarch not too thick: plaster a gener
GUS amount on the fur or cloth; allow Il
thoroughly with stick. Do not put or
enough to penetrate to the skin, but only
well through the fur. 1t will look like
new.

End Lace with Touches
Of CerISe

days page is far more lovely in its color
harmony than the cold black and white
print gives any idea of. The lining of
cerise satin shows against the pearl gray
velvet in reyers, cuffs and a band at the
foot The ornament which faStens the
wrap at one side is made of cerise satin
and silver corr, and the heavy lace. dyed
to match the gray velvet, is laid over sill
yer tissue. The collar is of skunk fur and
is more artistic with the gray and cerise
combination than would be chinchilla or
any gray-toned pelt. Another gray wrap
was of slaty gray net beaded closely with
steel and dropped over a lining of dun
green satin. 1nere was a yoke of silver
lace which extended down the sleeve, and
this yoke and the edge of the wrap were
outlined with rhinestorfes. The contrast
between the slate gray. steel and brilliant
