VERDICT IS GIVEN
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Freed of Charge of Causing
False Arrest.

A jury in Justice Barnard's court yes
terday exonerated Thomas H. Pickford
of the charge of causing the false arrest
OF James Hudson ON April ;, 1901. and a
verdict in hisS favor was given in Hud-
sons suit to recover $4,000 damages for
false arrest. The verdict was the result
Of second trial, ordered by the Court
of Appeals when it reversed judgment
for 5000 in favor of Hudson.
That Mr.. Pickford had good reason for
making the charge which led 10 the
arrest Of Hudson was the argument OF
attorneys for the defense, Maddox &
Galley and H. E. Davis.
It developed at the trial that Mr. Pick
ford laid before the district attorney the
fact that he was to be made the subject
of blackmail. Counsel claimed that on
instructions from the prosecutor, two de-
tectives were detailed at Pickford's Of
flee. They stood behind a partition and
heard a man named Hopp talk with
Pickford. Pickford gave the man marked
money, and the detectives followed him
TO a place of business. where, they said,
they arrested Hudson. The charge against
Hudson and Hopp was dismissed

HAREM SKIRT AND
WOMAN SUFFRAGE
Both Excellent, but Do Not
Necessarily Go Together.

To correct an erroneous impression, Mrs.
A. l. Barber, the prominent leader in
the woman's rights movement, yesterday
drew a distinct line of demsrkation be-
tween the so-caIed '.harem'' skirt and
the suffrage cause.
Il am willing to approve the harem
skirt" said Mrs. Barber. "and woman
suffrage is almost as dear to me as my
religion, but 1 do not want to connect the
two and bring the ridicule that now assails
the new skirt. Nevertheless, believe the
new creation to be no more open to ridcuIe
than the equestrian skirt. am extreme
ly sorry, however, that the impression
should be given that / advocated the
adoption of the harem skirt by suffragists
alone. or that attempted to link the two
together"
Other suffrage leaders in Washington
yesterday followed Mrs. Barber's lead
in indorsing the skirt as a skirt and the
suffrage cause as a separate and distinct
proposition, but refusing TO link the two
together.

patiently suffered the indignities and
wrongs done by her husband in the hope
that he would realize the enormity of his
offenses against her, repent Of them, and
reform his morals and his mode Of life
that she might, with preservation of her
own self-respect, and in benefit to him and
to his future, resume conjugal relations
with him. but that this hope of effecting a

At the recent convention Of the National
Association OF Building owners and Man
ayers In Cleveland the statement was made
that skyscrapers over thirty stories in
height were monuments Of Iselessness. To
show the absurdry Of that statement
George T. Mortimer vice president OF the
United States Realty and Improvement
company Of New York, declares. in the
World. plans have been prepared for 100
story building for lower Broadway-a build
ing to be $50 feet high. the loftiest struc-
>ture Of any kind in the world.
\Shat this lOO-story building. which would
cost 100000, will be constructed i'm
mediatsly is doubtful, but Mr.. Mortimer be-
Heves II is bound to come in the near fu
ture.
Think what 1OO-story building means
an edifice twice as high as the Singer
tower and $50 feet higher than the new
woolworth building
few years ago, when it was believed
the building code would be amended to pre-
vent the erection Of buildings higher than
twenty stories. the Equitable Life Insur-
ance company filed plans for sixty story
b,x,ding. but that, was little more than a
al am Of the late Paul Morton, then pres
Id ~ q the company. When the MetropoI-
itab tower was built two years ago 1t was
thought the limit in height had beel
reached. That structure Of forty-nine sto-
ries towers 10 feet above the ground. But
at the present time a fifty-five story build
ing "a in course OF construction which,
when completed. viii be 80 feet high So
Il viii be seen that the lOO-story building,
ljke the lOoo-f foot boat, is really not a
Dream but actually in sight as a practical
teslization.
According to Mr.. Mortimer the erection
OF TOO story building will not offer any
more serious engineering problems than
are 10 be found in putting up one OF forty
five or fifty stories. The foundations will
fi5t have 20 be any deeper. for the solid
rock below the surface Of Manhattan would
