PENDANTS only attended when
they felt like it.


The hearings before Brown are
likely to last two months. The
early days of the hearings will be
taken up with tracing the his
tories of the various companies
and will be dry.
They will begin to get interest
ing about the time the govern
ment starts in on the. famous
Gary dinners and attempts to
prove that they were much the
same sort of price-fxing, terri
tory-dividing meetings as were
the. meetings of "P. o. Box 247''
in the Chicago Beef Trust case.
Former Secretary of War
Jacob M. Dickinson and Henry
E. Cotton ara the chief attorneys
for the government.
: The attorneys of record for the
trust are Richard v. Lindabury
and Raynal c. Boiling. But the
trust has a dozen of the highest
priced attorneys much more
clever law jugglers than those
for the government in the
courtroom
Wallace Buell. of Portchester,
N. Y, former sales manager of
the American Steel and Wire
Company, was the first witness
today.
Buell. testified that while he
was with the corporation all the
wire manufacturing companies
had an agreement to keep up
prices. He explained, however,
that this was not a pool.

The explaining Wallace did
not explain just what difference
it made to the ultimate consumer
whether the wire companies
agreed to set price so long as
they did agree to keep the prices
up.

to-day by Miss Kate Van OStrand Of the JEFF
ferson Country Club, OF Watertown, y. Y.
in the semi-fnal round OF the women's
united North and South amateur golf cham
pionshlp tournament. Fully five hundred
persons followed the play.
on the eighteenth green Miss Van o.
trand's mashie approach struck the flag
and fell dead to the hole Miss Campbells
approach was close enough TO make
five reasonably certain. 1t raised the ques-
ton, also, of how far Mrs Van Ostrand's
ball would have overrun II It had not hit
the flag, and whether she would have
halved or lost the hole IN consequence.
In to-morrow's final round Miss Van OS-
trand will meet Mrs. ]. Raymond Price, Of
Oakmont, who won from her clubmate, Mrs
w. C. Fownes, jr., the wife Of the 1910 ma
tional champion, by a score Of up and I

In the consolation, competition was keen.
Miss Mary Fownes, Of Oakmont, made a
brilliant stand against Miss Myra p. Hell
