Isn't it funny" said Mrs. John Aker- man, of Seattle, that American women become so dreadfully stout after they have lived abroad for few years? In Berlin recently I ran across an old school girl chum of mine. who had been married three years before to a German army officer, and the very, sight of her shocked me. She was just like butter ball. Since then l have made observa tons. and l have come to the conclusion that the higher cost of living in America has a good deal to do with keeping our women with good fjalires.
 In Berlin one can get taXicab for all the afternoon for mere song.
 As the cabs are so cheap, the women naturally ride every where they go. Then there is that quiet air of satisfaction that every one carries. 1t is the most natural thing in the world for a woman to get fat under such conditions.
 Take New York. for an&eXample: If a woman gets fat she either has motor car of her own or money enough to hire a taxi every times she goes to the druy store The average woman has to hustle for subway train. change from focal to an express and stand up half the way home, O. .sswn town. which ever the case may be. i have come to the conclusion that to keep good figure woman has to do some pretty speedy junketnE

General Wickersham has any out

qualify him from his cabinet position,
Representative Rainey of Illinois, to.
day introduced resolution designed
to open the way for thorough inves-
tigation of the department of Justice.
The resolution referred to the COM
mittee on rules provides that a COM
mittee of nine members of the house
six democrats and three republicans
conduct the investigation and it asks
an appropriation of $4,000 to cover
the expense. 1t directs thorough
inquiry into all cases instituted under
the Sherman antitrust law and the
commodities clause Of the Hepburn
railroad rate law and to ascertain
what cases, if any, were dropped and
the reasons therefore.

Washington, April la European
government, the first to raise the
point officially, has been advised by
the state department that the tariff
concessions offered to Canada under
the pending reciprocity agreement
will be extended by the United States
to other nations under the most fav-
ored nation" clause of their treaties
with this country. The state depart
ment declined today to disclose the
name Of the country in question. The
discussion occurred several weeks
ago and was purely academic, as the
reciprocity agreement had not become
a reality.
The departments reply pointed out
that a reciprocity arrangement was
in the nature of bargain, the United
States lowering the tariff bars in re-
turn for similar concessions. The
privileges granted canada could be
obtained by other countries through
special arrangements.
State department officials today sug
gested that there are numerous recip-
rocity treaties existing between neigh
boring foreign countries, but the Unit
ed States had never claimed favored
nation treatment in connection with
them.

GREAT VICTORY
Famous Danbury Hatters Case
Verdict IS Reversed
(6y Associated Prass.)

New York, April 12.-The decision
of the United States circuit court OF
appeals in reversing a judgment OF
$232 400 given by the lower court to
D. E. Lowe and company of Danbury,
Conn.,, against the United Hatters OF
North America, blasts the hopes OF
the American Anti Boycott association
and the plaintiffs Of recovering and en-
forcing judgments against members OF
labor organizations" in the opinion Of
Alton B. Parkes, of Counsel for the
Hatters.
1T is very important and helpful
decision for organized labor" said
Mr.. Parker today. while the suit
was brought by the members of the
firm of Loewe and company and doubt
less for their benefit, still the real
prosecutor, as appears from the re-
cord, was the American antib0ycott
association.
THAT association promised the
plaintiff to furnish the lawyers and
pay the expenses of litigation, the
trial of which consumed nearly twelve
weeks, and in addition selected the
members of the various hatters' un-
ions and only a little over 200 Of them
are defendants. OF these over 180
were not members of the union which
went on strike and had no knowledge
whatever Of the origin or the details
of the controversy with Loewe & Co.
The basis of selection was a prop
erty basis solely. II member of some
hatters' union could be found who
owned his little home or possessed
bank account, or both, he was made
defendant and his property attached.
THE end aimed at was far beyond
the recovery Of this action. A recov-
cry and enforcement Of judgment
against members Of labor organiza.
tions based solely on the fact that
they were members, 1t was naturally
assumed, would drive out every econ.
omical and saving member. That hope
Of the American Antiboycott associa-
ton and of the plaintiff is blasted by
this decision"

new Law POINT
IS BROUGHT out

Jamestown, N. d. April ia nice
point of law was brought up before
Judge Coffey In his chambers here
while he was hearing motions. A mo-
ton was made before him to set aside
a decision made by Judge Burke on
the grounds that judgment ordered
by Judge Burke was not filed In the
office of the clerk of the district court
until the day after Judge Burke quail
fled for the supreme bench and for
that reason was no longer district
judge.
The case was that of Ora Hemphill

ing title to quarter section Of land
1t was called at the June term of the
district court in 1910 and after pro-
longed litigation in which the case
was hard fought with Seller & Ayl-
mer for the plaintiff and John Knauf
for the defendant. Ora was given
the decision after the judge had con-
sidered the law pertaining to it and
this. with the delay of filing the
judgment he ordered, made the time
overlap his stay on the district bench.
After going into the matter Judge
Coffey refused to consider the motion
to set aside Judge Burke's decision al
though the execution bore the name
of John Burke and the date of the
day following Judge Burke's assump-
ton of the gown of the supreme bench.
