TRUANTS FIND NEW TRICK
Take the Fox Bite" to Escape
School for Few Days.

DR.. Fleming. of Bellevue, believes that
the epidemic" of fox bite" which
struck the East Side on Saturday AFTER
noon and Sunday was the outcome OF
plan formulated by two children as a
means of keeping away from school Tor
few days.
Saturday a small boy and girl ap-
neared at the hospital with marks upon
their arms which they said were mace
nv two men who had stopped them IN the
street and rubbed their arms until thev
bled. The lotion that Or. Fleming and an
assistant rubbed on the sore arms had
pleasant odor and the children seemed
much pleased. The next day the number
of boys and girls suffering from FOX
bite" increased and Dr. Fleming began
to smell a rat" He treated the new
patients with iodine, which was not by
any means so pleasant. The children who
came late went away not half 80 mucn
pleased as had been the first ones, and
since they departed no other patients have
come for treatment.

has not put stop to the epidemic SAID

IT am also informed that a series OF

generally speaking. Governor Johnson

Progressive people In the West as the

the claim that the Bull Mooser may carry

Bull Moose adherents In the West do not

Government, in Brief, Says Ii
CenSe Scheme of Bathtub
Trust Aims to Trick Justices.
"MERELY A HOCUS-P0CUS"
Prosecution Says Patent Laws
Should Not Be Refuge for
a Vulgar and Danger
Gus Monopoly.

Washington. oct. Warnings against
being "bamboozIed" by the so-called
bahttub trust figured prominently in
the brief of the Department of Justice
filed to-day I'm the Supreme Court of the
United States for the guidance of the
court in considering the question whether
the combination shall be dissolved In ac-
cordance with a decree of the lower fed
eral tribunal.
Attorney General Wickersham and his
special assistant, Edwin =. Grosvenor, In
formed the court that the so-called license
ARRANGEMENT Of the accused manufacture
ers was merely the latest. and. there
fore the most fashiona Die contrivance for
evading the rules prescribed by the Sher-
man act IN, the conduct of interstate com
mercy The arrangement was a plan
whereby the owner of a patented Gredger,
used in making unpatented bathtubs. IL
censed the dredger to the manufacturers
on conditions regulating the prices at
which the tubs were TO be sold and resold.
The government contcnded throughout
its brief that the patent laws gave no one
a right to violate the other laws Of tho
antitrust law 1t dwelt on the impor-
lance Of the case because the license ar
rangement had become very popular since
the Supreme Court had struck down the
holding company" method of violating
the antitrust law, as eXempllhed in the
Standard oil and Tobacco cases, saying:
Manufacturers OF "unpatented articles"
cannot destroy competition among them
selves by entering into uniform license
agreements to use in the manufacture OF
the unpatented article patented tool
and by Incorporating in Such agreements
uniform non-competitive prices and terms
Of sale and resale OF the unpatented
article.
We assert that the so-called license
arrangement adopted by appellants IN
merely a hoCus-pocus, a thimble-rigglng
device. by which they expected 10 trick
and bamboozle the public and the courts.
The form alone is new. Behind the grim
ming mask Of the license agreement is the
common, vulgar type OF monopoly, which
many times has been condemned by this
court dangerous alike TO individual lib
erty and the public wellheing.' as was
said by the court I'm the Tobacco case.
The government took up AZ length the
defence built around the decision OF the
Supreme Court last winter I'm the Nimeo-
graph case II was in this case that the
court. in passing on condition requiring
certain unratented ink TO be used on a
patented machine. said the property right
to a patented machine may pass to A
purchaser with no right 20 use. or with
only the right 10 use in specified way.
or at specified place, or for a specified
purpose. The governments position Is

The loss Of $4,000 in currency sent by

Bank OF this city was not the occasion
for great deal Of worry yesterday at
the National Park Bank. 1t was said by

No steps to recover It were being taken
by his institution. he said, as II was In no
way affected by the loss.
The Mannheim Insurance Company, on
which the loss will fall in the event OF
the money not being recovered, according
TO officers OF that concern was confident
that the large denomination OF the bills
would lead to the arrest OF any one In
whose possession they were found. At
tho local branch OF the National Bank Of

RATES HER HAND AT 900
Court Thinks Damages Award
ed Stenographer Too High.

The value of a human life having been
variously adiudicated ct from 81 to an
amount without legal limit. 1t remained
for Justice Newburger in the Supreme
Court TO fix a value on the beauty OF the
feminine hand. A jury decided that $500
was about the valuation. but Justice
Ncwburger disagreed and fixed 1t at
1900.
The case in which the court set this
standard Of value in dollars of the fe-
male hand beautiful was that Of Miss
Eleanor W. sprague against the Thomas
Cr,mmins Contracting Company Miss
Sprague IS a stenographer. She said that
on october 6, 1910, she was walking along
sedgewick avenue IN The Bronx, near
the Harlem River where the defendant
company was excavating for the New
York Central Railroad. There was a
dynamite blast and rocks few in every
direction one rock struck Miss Eprague
on the hand.
She sued for 5000 damages, and, II
came out at the trial yesterday, she has
intermittent pains in the injured hand
TO this day. Her attorney laid less stress
ON this fact than he did on the destruc.
ton of the beauty OF Miss Sprague's
small hand.
The Crimmins company at first put In
a general denial to the suit Of the stem
ographer. Then they put physician
ON the stand, who testified TO the unim'
portance of the injury suffered by the
plaintiff, and the company admitted a
limited liability.
After hearing the case the jury re
tired and returned with a verdict fol
81 800 for Miss Sprague. Justice New
burger said he believed the verdict to b,
excessive, and gave the fair plaintiff
three days to accept a reduction to Sl,00
or be compelled to submit to another
trial

The only varnish, the company owned
was In two small barrels, Van der Hooo
says, and he further alleges he learned
that the shares Of stock were worthless
and had no market value and that the
company was insolvent.
Van der Hoop determined to talk the
thing over with one Of the officers OF the
company, but for a week he was unable
to find one Of them, nor could he learn
their whereabouts. Deputy Sheriff Gil

Looked Like a Fortune.

All these things made Van der Hoop
think he was on the short cut to pros
perity. In his receptive state OF mind
after listening to these alleged repre-
sensations, Van der Hoop seemed to think
that 1t was not at all unreasonable when
one of the officers remarked that the COM
pany needed general manager, and that
the latter should take a proper interest in
the company by investing in some shares
of stock Van der Hoop wanted the JOB
at the s75 a week offered, and also was
not at all averse to investing, especially
when he had seen a statement Of the "ex-
cellent financial condition" Of the COM
pany and the large balance In bank. He
bought 900 shares at s. share. and was
elected general manager With this job
went the authority OF countersigning, but,
as the plaintiff now alleges, he counter
signed mostly for the paying out OF his
own money.
Van der Hoop took up his duties as
general manager. After little while.
he SAYS. he became suspicious because OF
the number OF men who came to the
Church street office. and he made inquiry.
