NEW YORK, September 23.-Ten thou
sand heads of New York families. 500 re-
tail dealers in fifty lines and several hun
dred farmers of the Pennsylvania State
Grange have combined in association
here to eliminate the middleman and low
or the high cost of living While the
PENNSYLVANIA State Grange is completing
negotiations with the association this
week to hande it's output, a small army
of canvassers is enrolling hundreds of
other families in the movement. and Off
GERS of the association are negotiating
with the farmers of New York state to
handle their products also.
The associa ton plans to act as clear
ing house between producer and con-
sumner, dividing between them the profit
of the various middlemen through whose
hands food commodities have hitherto
PASSED. 1t the case of some farm prod
uctS the association finds that six mid
dlemen or brokers have been reapins
profits before the products reach the con-
sumner. The 800 dealers in almost every
line of retail trade are members of the
association, and RET Give their supplies be-
cause of such membership at lower than

Plan of the Authorities.

The authorities, however, will not try
to fasten the murder of her father and
mother and her sister Mary upon her
They will devote themselves only to the
charge of the poisoning of her sister
Elise. This is because scientific authori-
ties have informed the prosecutor that
chemical analysis could not. after the
passing of so much time, accurately de-
termine whether these bodies contained
poison at the time of their burial.
For twentyfour hours Miss Crawford
withstood the grilling of lawyers and
detectives. Despite the fact that she is
a morphine tiend and that the drug was
denied her. she held her nerve amaZ-
insly. But at midnight she swooned.
Recovering, but all unstruns, she made
TO Mrs. Mary Kennedy, the woman
probation officer of the juvenile court OF
this city, certain admissions.
She admitted that she gave her sick
sister one and half grains of morphine
in capsule-a dose that caused the
young Womans death. And she further
admitted that she had hated Elise
Following her admission that she gave
morphine to her sister Elise. she fervently
protested that the morphine in the cap
sule was for her own use. The capsule,
and its contents We're similar in appear
ance, she pointed out, to the capsules
containing calomel and soda prescribed
to be given to her sick sister
In Charge of Poisons.
OF her drug habit she has told herself.
She began a telephone operator in
a New Orleans sanitarium at S12
month. She is bright and ambitious. She
studied chemistry md in a short while
was receiving $50 as drug clerk in the
santarium. There she had an access to
the chests containing drugs of a deadly
character-in fact, she had sole charge
opium, morphine, choral and the like on
the physicians prescriptions And she
fell into the way of testing the drugs
and then of using them steadily.
Not a woman has visited the prisoner
in her cell. When not being questioned
by the authorities she sits idle, gently
using a black fan She has used the
fan constantly in avoiding efforts to take
her photograph.

POOR FRENCH INVENTOR
NEAR GREAT TRIUMPH
His Pendulum Seat May Solve
the Problem of Aerop|ane
Balance.
Correspondence of The Star.

PARIS, September 10, 1911.
An engineer named Albert Moreau has
lately been experimenting at the village
of Quincy with machine of his own in
vention for automatic balance. and on
Saturday he made some remarkable
flights. He Travelled over the villages of
Diensaint, Combes-la-Ville. Narennes.
Brie ST Robert and back to his shed at
Quincy At Brie st. Robert he circled
round the old church tower and during
the whole of the voyage did not touch
any of the levers of the stabilizating
planes. either in his straight flight or
during the turns.
If continued trials confirm the relia bill
ity of his invention 1t may be conSid-
cred to have solved the problem of both
horizontal and lateral automatic equi-
librium, and thus to have gone much fur
ther than the invention of NJ. DOutre,
which only guarantees the former.
Seat a Pendulum.
In NJ. Moreaus aeroplane the result Is
obtained by the whole form and principle
of the machine, but principally by the
novel disposition of the seat of the pilot
This is made into species OF pendulum,
the pilot being the weight, and what
ever change takes place in the position
of the whole machine he remains always
in a vertical chair. YachtSmen are Ia
milar with tables and lamps arranged
on the same principle. In turns. when
one wing is generally higher than the
other, connection between the swinging
chair or cradle of the pilot acts auto
matically upon the tail, giving 1T an
angular movement corresponding TO tnat
of "a longitudinal stabilizator which i'm
mediately re-establishes the balance. me
tail is really not a carrying plane at
all, but a balancing appendase.

JAPAN TO BRING NAVY
UP TO HIGH STANDARD
Wants Sea-Fighting Strength
Equal to That of the
United States.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.


TOXIC September 16 1911.
The question of naval expansion is
gradually coming to accupy a prominent
place in the Japanese mind. The gem
eral conviction at present seems to be
that plans for bringing the navy in every
way up to date can no longer be wisely
delayed. There appears to be a decided
opinion that some attempt must be made
to bring Japan's fighting strength up to a
standard reasonably proportionate to that
of the United States.
Question Before Council.
Baron Saito, minister of the imperial
navy last year brought before a cabinet
council the necessity of enlarging the
naval program, and intimated his decision
to relinquish his portfolio in case the
matter met with disapproval The pro-
posal was not rejected, but laid aside for
more opportune time of consideration.
This attitude has now been abandoned,
and recently the authorities have shown
unanimous determination to Increase
the amount annually spent on naval eX-
pansion 1t has been decided IN cabinet
council to supplement the amount to be
spent on naval ornaments by at least
S41 800, 600 for the special purpose OF
undermining the older ships and this, to-
new ships will bring the expenditure
on additional fighting units up to nearly
5000 oOO, 900 by 1917, when Japan expects
to have navy of a thoroughly modern
type During the present year at least
so1 800 900 will be laid on the navy.
Increased Activity Shown.
In accordance with the enlarged pro-
gram orders for new ships have been
given to an extent that proves greatly
increased activity in naval circles. The
new battleships. Kawachi and Settsu, are
already nearing completion of equipment
In October a new ship is to be laid down
at the Kokosuka yards, the Hlel, SIS
ter ship to the kongo, ordered recently
from Messrs. Vickers' Sons and Maxim,
in England, while at the Hawasakl and
Naeasaki yards are under construction

Hatana and the Hiroshima, IN additlon
to three second-class cruisers, tue .hl-
k,lma. Hirato and Yahagl, no" under
| going equipment in the same yards. Two
new destroyers will also be Inlsheu inns

boats All these will be ready TO TAKE

end of the present fiscal year.

1t is the plan to reduce the cost of liv-
ing by these refunds rather than by
charging the consumer lower than mar

cation has been canvassng the apart

days. Within this period they have pro-
cured nearly 5000 of their 10000 associate

IA FOLLETTES NEW PLAN
 FOR LOR|MER INQUIRY
Committee to Be Chosen From the
 New Senators.

Washington. May 26.-After devo- ting practically the entire session to- day to the discussion of the proposed reinvestigation of the election of Senator Lorimer. the senate adjourned without action, determined to proceed again with the question at the next sitting on Monday.
 Senator LaFollette concluded his four day speech. and announced that when the voting stage was reached he would so change his resolution as to provide that the senate shall elect an Investigating committee of five from among the new senators.
 Senator Borah supported the LaFol- lette proposition and Senators Bailey and Dillingham; opposed it.
 In the cloakrooms of the senate to- day there was much discussion of the persistent rumOr that Lorimer might resign before the new inquiry was actually authorized, to protect his friends from the attack of those seek ing to unseat him.
 Neither his colleague, Senator Gull lom. nor other members of the llli- nois delegation in the house would admit that they had knowledge of such an intention on the part of Lori mer.
