 An enormous crowd followed Gibson from the station to his office and for the first time the accused man lost his temper, smashing at reporter who got too close to him and cursing the crowd for bottlering him. As soon as he reached his office he called that everyone except officers of the law be kept away from him.
 Most of the morning DeGraw had waited in the terminal. He had re where the attorney lives. because the Orange county officials did not desire any extradition complications.
 District Attorney Rogers insisted to, case ready for presentation to the grand jury He has the report of Coroner Physician Schultze that there was neither water nor indications of congestion in the dead woman's lungs. But it is on Gibson's subsequent acts that the prosecutor bases most of his hopes of a conviction. He plans to show that the lawyer hurried away from the scene without waiting for the recovery of the body, that he took Mrs. Szabo's pocketbook with him when he left Greenwood Lake, that the following day he appeared at the Szabo home and went through the dead woman's effects at the same time telling neighbors who were curious that she had gone to Chicago, that he had her trunks sent to his own home, the burial in the unmarked grave of the woman whose estate totals $10, 900, the presentation of a. waiver of cita- ton, despite the fact that Mrs. Szabo's ed it, had been dead for two years, and, in addition, Rogers claims he has testimony, the nature of which he re- fuses to reveal. which he says will absolutely cinch his case.

Speaker Champ Clark will support a reso-
luton before the democratic national con-

shall be declared the partys nominee.
Senator Stone said that an effort will be
made to get other democratic presidential
candidates to ask its abolition by the con-
yention. He said:
THE consensus of democratic opinion Is.
and has been for years. that the two

THE WELL DRESSED MAN
BEAUNASH

Copyright, 1912, by Alfred F. Bryan.

After years of seeSawfng and somer-
| saulting, the problem of style has rigAted
| itself. With the spread of intelligence.
men have grown to recognize that there
cannot in reason be only one correct
style, but that the correct style for each
individual is that which makes the most
and best of his personality. Thus the
abnormalities and absurdities of ultra
modishness have been its own undoing.
and the armchair arbter'' of fashion
has been laughed out.
If the everyday man could meet the
! so-called "best-dressed men, or society
in the flesh, he would be astonished at
their seeming lack of any well defined
clothes characteristic to set them apart
from the multitude. They are SO per-
fectly dressed that they look simply well
dressed. Their dress blends with and
''metS into their personality, so that it
becomes part and parcel of it-so that
no single essential or detail is overem-
phasiZed-sO that the clothes constitute,
in effect, a harmonious frame for the
man who wears them
BRINGING OUT PERSONALITY.
After all is said and written, style is
only a reflex of a mans individuality.
1t springs as much from how your
clothes are worn as from what clothes
you wear. 1t means Sultlng the dress 10
the man-never suiting the man to the
dress. 1t means bringing out your per-
sonality trough the color cloth and cut
that become you and not smothering
your personality through the color. cloth
and cut that would become somebody
else. In dress, in all other things. be
yourself.
Study colors and effects with regard to
your own individuality just you would
study colors and effects with regard to
the individuality of a room. Avoid gin
gerbready" ornateness and stick 10 sim
plicity. Keep In mind the stature of the
man. as you would keep in mind the size
of room. There are some colors
which are always dangerous-red and
yellow for example, in scarfs. TSere are
other colors which are always safe-blue
and gray, for example, in suits.

Hitherto. day waistcoats have been
made to button through. A notable in
novation is fiy-fron waistcoat, in which
buttons are hidden and the watch cha
is slipped through slit expressly cut fer
that purpose. This waistcoat Is made
from an oyerplaid fabric, is high cut and
hip curving, and has lower pockets with
broad flaps.
Many men seem unconscious of the fact
that an il-cut wais. coat detracts marked
ly from the fit of the shirt and the set
of the scarf. There is no excuse for the
puckering Of the cloth between the but
tC nholes and the crumIling at the boz

mussy. By having waistcoat shaped to
the swell of the chest and below and
arched over the hips, 1t can be made to
fit as smoothly as the bosom Of well cut

fasten the bottt m button of the waist

strain that cause wrinkling.

friends at the Hotel Astor for two hours

Justice Charles +. Hughes of the
United States Supreme Court passed
through this city on his way to the Adj

at Lake Placid, and he will spend the
summer there. To friends who spoke of
the reports from Chicago of the POSSIBLE
.ty of his nomination by the republican
national convention as a comprom Sc can
didate for the presidency, he said that he
was entirely out of politics and would not
permit the use of his name under any
circumstances and that this must be re-
garded as final.
The statement was given to the news
papers by close friends of Justice Hughes.

governor took the matter under consid-

realized that If he remained in active pc

but despite that fact he decided to rouna
