RAPS POLICE
 FROM BENCH
Judge Tyner, Discharging Men Caught in Raid. Scores Lack of Evi-
 dence

New Haven, Nov. 21-Judge Tyner delivered scathing rebuke to Patrol- men Christian Schroeder, Peter Me- Keon, Christopher Pagan and Edward Rose, who raided the rooms at ? Bishop street on Sunday, November 12, when in the city court ye terday afternoon, he discharged the six men arrested there on charges of yioIat- ing the liquor law.
 The judge stated that there was not enough evidence to prove the guilt of the men before the court but intimated that the policemen were not sufficiently diligent in search of any that might have existed any way. The testimony of the policemen prov ed to be useless owing to their fail- ure to identify any of the men ar- rested as the ones whom they said they saw drinking or to offer any evil dence against Michael Reynolds, who was claimed to be the proprietor.
 "It is apparent that someone must be guilty but the officers who made the raid seem to have made no effort to find out" said the judge. when four officers go intoSa place for the avowed purpose of securing evidence of violation of the liquor law and then to go on the witness stand and say they have no evidence to prove that the men they are ted are the guilty ones, there is something wrong. The failure of the officers to make the slightest effort to determine the guilty persons forces me to discharge the prisoners, having heard no valid evil dence against them.'

SAMUEL UltRmsYEk LD.slTS
That Steel Trust is a ''Most Fragrant Violation of
 the Law"
By Clyde H. .Tavenner, Special cor
 respondent of the Farmer.)

Washington, Nov. 20-Samuel Unter- myer, considered by many one of the most astute and successful trust law legal ability many of the large trusts owe their existence, admits that the formation of the steel trust constitut- ed ''one of the most fragrant viola tions of law he had ever heard Of." He adds to this that If the administra- ton at Washington had not remained utterly supine, the trust could have been stopped right in the beginning" !" ''In 1901," declared MT. Untermyer, before the Senate committee on Inter- state and Foreign commerce, "the gov ernment cou d have prevented the steel trust from coming into existence. The plans of the organization were pub lished to the world in the advertising columns of the newspapers. For months, the details of the scheme, of exchanging securities, and of gather Ing in the smaller companies, were published broaocast. Thus the trust made public announcement of the fact that it was violating the law, and yet nothing was done to stop it."
 This admission. coming from a man who is credited with knowing as much of trust organization and methods as any man in the country, proved a piGdSdHl sur pTiSS IOT DSulOCIdSIC uiCiA- bers of Congress who are in Wash ington, inasmuch as it corrOborates everything Democrats have said along that inc, in Congress and out, for the last ten years. When Democrats made statements to the effect that the req son trusts were not punished was be- cause the various Republican admins trations did not wish to punish them, they werea denounced by the Standpat leaders in Congress as "agltatorS, and "demagogues."
 MT. Untermyer also admitted that the steel trust stock contains water. While this was not exactly news, it is the first admission ever made that the capitalization was not based on actual value.
 Senator Cummins, in questioning MT. Untermyer, said: There is,'' for in stance, about three billions of capital in the steel business of the country"
 "Of ca. italization, not of capital" in terposed MT. Untermyer.
 "Yes," said the Iowa senator, smil- ing, sI accept the correction"
 There is much speculation in Wash ing ton as to why MT. Untermyer made these admissions, which admittedly will be damaging to the Taft admin. .stration, and the generally accepted theory is that Big Business has de- cided to retaliate on the President for his endorsement, in his Western speeches of the alleged activity of At torney General Wickersham in pros ecuting" the trusts. Another theory is that Wal street. having decided that MT. Taft cannot possibly be re- elected anyway, has determined to get him out of the way as quickly as pos Sible,so that it's support can be thrown openly to some other candidate.
 Democrats, meanwhile, are rejoicing over this proof, from such an admit tedly high source, ,of the correctness of their allegations concerning the failure either to prohibit or punish il- legal trusts

 Oscar straus' opera. ''rhe Chocolate soidier. which the. Whitney Opera Company will present at the Park on Friday and Saturday with Saturday vnatinee has already won for itself an Immortality that will be as lasting as that now held by its famous pre- decessors of the last forty years. Tn its wide popular appeal this gem oi viennsse composition has duplicated the profound success which attended "Arrus and the Man" the famous comedy satire by Bernard Shaw from which the story of ''The Chocolate Soldier is derived. And to Hs vogue among the millions whose musica, tastes are not regulated by cr1tical eaeem in which the superb little opera bouffe is held by the proudest arbiters oe musical opinion every where.

MT. Whitnsy's production of the opera ranks as high in scenic annals as does the opera itself in the history Of mus ical art. It Is a vivid little cross sec tion of life in Bulgaria that IS ols- and every detail of costume and scenery is faithful to the country cele- brated by Shaw and Straus. None of MT. whitney's companies had ever been charged with mediOcrity, and the present organization upholds the whitney standard with distinction. A special company of thirty musicians from the orchestral standpoint; vo- cally, MT. Whitney has left nothing to be desired. Prominent in the cast are Frances Hewitt as Nadina. Emma Loomis as Mascha, Lotta Gale as Aureli. Roy Providence as Lieut.. Bu- merit, J. Russell Powell as Massa- kroff. Olive Randolph as Louka, Nell son Riley as Col.

ESSENCE OF GOOD COOKING.

F'rom Henry T. F.inck's Multiplying

 December Century,
 The essence of good cooking lies ir four things; the ability to preserve develop, improve and vary the flavor Of foods. The French excel particu. larly in the art of varying the flavor A small piece of meat suffices then to make a whole pot of vegetables re dolent of it. Conversely, they use all sorts of vegetables to impart thei unique flavor to meats-in soups, stews sauces and the water in which meat or fish is boiled. The combination: and variations are endless. An Eng fish epicure declares that the secret of the excellence of French cookery lies in the lavish use made of vege- tab es. Where we use one kind French cooks use twenty"
