ARBUCKLES ANSWER LODGE
Call Charge They Did Not APP
pear for Free Sugar False.

Arbuckle Brothers. sugar rehners, ls-
sued yesterday a statement Ia which they
answered the assertion made In the Sen
ate on Saturday by Senator Lodge that
the Arbuckles and tho American Sugar
Refining COMPANY had not appeared IN
tho campaign for free sugar
They say that Il is difficult to believe
that Senator Lodga did not know IA"
facts that Arbucklc Brothers advocated
free sugar before the Committee On Way
and Means Of the House Of Representa-
tives in 1907, and that in 1910 MIR. Ar
buckle in an interview that was published
widely made a strong plea for free sugar.
The representative Of the Arbuckies tesu-
fed before the Hardwick committee IN
1911 and advocated free sugar Further.
after the House bill for free sugar reached
the Senate. Arbuckle Brothers addressed
an open letter to Senator O'Gornan
under date Of May %, 1912. IN which they
summed up their argument I'm favor OF
free sugar and asked the aid Of Senator
O'Gorman In the enactment OF the bill
placing raw sugar on the free list.
The letter, quoting from the sworn
testimony before the Hardwick commit
tee, shows conclusively. they say. that
when raw cane sugar was free the con-
sumer received full benefit OF the duty
taken off and about half OF the increased
margin Of profit OF the rcfiners. II showed
conclusively that, II raw sugar were free
Of duty. the refined sugar would be al
most two cents cheaper per pound. IL
showed how greatly the Philippine ISL
ands would be benefited by the free sugar
bill, and that the necessity for high sugar
duties to develop Porto Rico came from
planters who have planted hilsdes. hill
tops. dry lands. shallow lands, and. IN
fact. any lands within reach of a road
or railway
Arbuckle Brothers have addressed to
Senator Lodge an open letter, In which
they say:
I'm the Congressional Record Of July
q you are reported in the course Of the
discussion OF the sugar duties bill TO have
stated as follows: The American Sugar
Refining Company and the Arbuckles
have not appeared In this campaign foi
free sugar We ask you to correct this
misstatement publicly

certain pedestrians regarding the number
Of miles TO be travelled each day, diet ard

Mrs. Mitchell said three theories had

muscle: second. that the power OF intui-
ton is a safeguard and a guide. and
third. that motor action ceases 10 be effort
when il becomes a habit
There was not one unpleasant expert
ence during the trip" said Mrs. Mitchell.
when noon arrived my intuition would
guide me TO a house where | wouid be
welcomed and caused me 10 shun places
where I might have met with reoun.
The walk proved my three theories TO my
satisfaction and was successful expert
ment from a psychological standpoint"

Montclalr. y. J.. July 29.--Seated in the
drawing room Of her beautiful home. at
No. 9S Lloyd Road. on the picturesque
mountainsi1e OF Montclair, from which
the skyscrapers Of New York could be
glimpsed through the distant haze, Mrs.
Dorothy Marcus, wife of William Elder
Marcus. jr., whose deliberate desertion
OF her husband and two small daughters
week ago caused a sensation, told her
life story this afternoon and gave the
reasons for the remarkable step she has
taken.
As Mrs. Marcus talked she displayed q
dozen large portraits of her two beauti-
full chlidren-Linda, two yeas old, and
Jane, six months old-and commented on
the peculiar lack Of maternal instinct
that made it possible for her TO make
up her mind TO leave her home without
taking the little ones along. Mrs Marcus
returned again to Montclar this morning.

which she left the town since she reached

why did you decide to leave your
husband" Mrs Marcus was asked.
Because l do not love him" said Mrs
Marcus, and because life under such
conditions had become intoerable."
And your children? How can YOU

Rivalry for Effect.

There has been great rivalry among
the dresFmaking girls in the matter OF
eashes. each one trying 10 knot hers in g
more original way than the others, or to
hi OF some specially pretty way Of fin
ishing the sash ends. Some made fringe
Of We balls Of the ribbon, others twisted
slender ribbon cords and sewed them into
original designs. Each girl in this, the
advanced dressmaking department, was
required to turn ia with her completed
dress a card on which she had drawn the
design Of the dress in color. had pasted
bits OF tho material and trimming, and
had made out two tables, one showing
the cost in money and the other the cost
IN time The time tables ran about like
this: Cutting five hours; sewing, sixty
eight hours: designing, six hours; ripping
-" CThink of that, amateur seamstresses
who spend half your time ripping out
what you've sewn-Manhattan Trade
School girls dom have to rip Fitting
two hours thirty minutes" IN all, eighty
one hours and a half. And this particu-
lar dress was a mass of fine tucks.
seventy-fve dresses are shown by the
advanced class, the individual cost run
ming all the way from S0iceuts to $ or 50.
None Of these girls has studied here more
than a year, and during this time they
have passed through the various grades
Of elementary sewing, intermediate sew
ing, white work, wholesale class-which
means speed tests-elementary dressmak-
ing and advanced dressmaking.

Gain Speed BY Practice.

Some girls on the elementary oresS-
making class are showing whole groups
d frocks made in the three weeks. One
girl has a pile of six neat one-piece COL
cred dresses, and though the embroidery
Is done by machine It's pretty, all the
same. AS an example OF the speed that
can be attained by practice, one teacher
said that one Of her girls who took ten
hours 20 make her first princess apron
finished her fifth one. and did 1t better,
In less than two hours
Not a few OF the girls used their three
weeks in making things for their small
sisters. and many are the piles consist
ing of a set of wee dresses and doll-like
underwear.
4 Over one thousand articles will be ex-
1iOited all together. In the novelty de-
partment many girls chose to make things
TO be sold by the school, not requiring
for their own use all the lamp shades,
boxes etc, they could fashion in three
weeks
Some Of the teachers say that Miss
