tary Morrison, supersedeas bonds OF
5000 and 5000. respectively, being fix
ed by the court. Justice Wright ex-
tended the hearings on the bill of ex-
ceptions until fall, at the request of
Attorney Ralston, however, declaring
that II was a personal favor to the at
torney who has booked passage for
Europe.
In connection with the request for an
extension of time on the bill OF ex-
ceptions, Justice Wright branded as
false the public statement of President
Gompers that the court was playing
politics" and had delayed the opinion
until after the close of the Republican
national convention. although II was
prepared month before.
IT was deliberately and falsely mis-
represented by the defendant Gompers, -
said Justice Wright.
The court refused to asess the cost OF
the contempt proceedings. amounting to
81 800, against the three respondents
although a motion to that end was pre-
sented by the committee of prosecu-
tors" comprising Attorneys J. j. Darl-
ington, Daniel Davenport, and Clarence
r. Wilson.

GRADE CLOTHING
Sale to Begin in Pope

St., Saturday,
June %.
BY ORDER OF CHICAGO
UNDERWRITERS co.
A Sale of Clothing Products From
the Worlds Foremost
Manufacturers.

An opportunity seldom, II ever, afford
ed the public of Washington and vicin-
ity presents itself by order OF the Chi
cago Underwriters Co. to dispose of
without reserve a mammoth stock OF
finest hand-tailored Mems and Young
Mems Clothes. Never before in the his
tory of Washington clothing selling was
such a representative stock brought to-
gether under one roof, affOrding an un-
restricted choice Of the productions by
Americas finest clothes makers-Kup-
penheimer. Hart Schaffner & Marx,
Clothcraft Clothes, Rosewaeld e. Well,
Adler Brothers, of Rochester-are the
contributors to this greatest of clothing
sales, and, with such magnificent
showroom as the spacious Pope build
ing at Sl7-S19 14th St. affords, this sale
will easily prove the grandest oppor-
tunity ever placed before a Washington
public. a display well worthy of the
Nations Capital is the expression used
by the management, which assures the
men OF Washington an assortment OF
clothes never before equaled and i'm
possible to equal by any one clothing
establishment. The imperative orders to
dispose of the entire stock and make
the price concessions so as to effect a
complete clearance in the shortest pos
sible time, makes 1t an easy task on the
part of the management, as the values
offered will positively overshadow any
and all clothing sales. Remember the
date-Saturday, June 90. Remember the
place, 1873 14th St.. Pope Building.

REALTY DEAL WILL
AID IMPROVEMENT
ON WATER FRONT
Transfers In Georgetown H.
lustrate Modernizing of
River Property.

The undermining of Georgetown 8
river front is again illustrated today in
the transfers of two large pieces Of
Water street property, which have been
in one estate for generations.
The Weaver property at the north
west corner of Wisconsin avenue and
Water street passes out of the hands
of the estate of which NJ. w. Sullivan
and others are trustees, to Joseph T.
Weaver and the property formerly oc-
cupied by the Weaver & Kengla factory
on the south side of Water street, be-
tween Wisconsin avenue and Thirty
third street, passes to several heirs,
Robert D. Weaver, Mary E. Freeman,
Weaver at a consideration of $25, 100.
A consideration of a,l00 is named In
the transfer of the large property at
the corner of Wisconsin avenue, but the
true value Is not indicated by the con-
sideration in either case. The south
piece has a frontage of about 16O feet,
and runs back about 165 feet to the
river, giving a valuable water front
on the channel.
While no immediate improvement by
the present owners is contemplated, the
transfer loosens UP the property so that
it can be handled more easily than
previously With the present rapid de-
dustrial purposes both properties will
doubtless soon be modernzed.

dayton News.l

Evidently the commercial and indus
trial interests of this country are not
afraid of Woodrow Wilson. During the
campaign, when it seemed evident that
his election was assured, business went
right ahead. Then, as soon as his cleo
ton was announced, securities actually
advanced in prices, giving evidence that
the investing public is not alarmed.
American securities abroad also adj
vanced in prices, showing that the for
eigner isn't afraid of the next admins
tration. Uncertainty usually prevails
for time after an election, and Ameri-
can securities abroad show weakness for
few days at least. But in this instance
they did nothing of the kind; there was
not a tremor. The next day after the
election the foreigners bought American
securities in larger amounts and paid
higher prices for them
Evidently we are going to have great
prosperity for a year or two. There is
not a cloud upon the industrial horizon.
If there had been, the politicians would
have brought on storm through the de-
spicable campaign that was waged. For
it is a despicable thing to attempt to
frighten people by telling them that if
certain man is elected to office hard
times" will prevail.
We have no inclination to return to the
campaign and to fight out again the
issues that were thrust into it. But now
that the election is over and everything
is moving off nicely, it is well to call at
tention to that feature of the campaign
which had for its purpose the frighten-
ing of labor and capital by holding up
the ghost of hard times" unless a GER
tain candidate was successful at the polls.
1t was an insincere cry, it was false
hood upon its face, and it did not work
