ELIOT CONDEMNS COLONEL'S VIEW OF
 WOMEN PROBLEM
FORMER HEAD OF ROOSEVELT'S ALMA MATER CENSURES
 JANE ADDAMS ALSO.

Bar Harbor, Aug. 22.-Dr. Charles William Eliot, who was President of Harvard when Theodore Roosevelt was 9 student there, when interview ed by The World correspondent con demned the Colonel, especially for encouraging women to take part in politics. Speaking of Miss Jane Ad- dams participation in the proceed ings of the Bull Moose Convention at Chicago, Dr. Eliot said:
 Women have no proper share in a political convention. Never before in our history as democratic nation have we gone so far as to permit woman to nominate a candidate for the Presidency.
 Miss Addams received a great deal of popular acclaim when she second ed MT. Roosevelt's nomination. It was very spectacular proceeding, but it was in very bad taste. I also understand Col. Roosevelt had the bad taste to publicly compliment her on her action and thank her. That, too, was spectacular. Lately he seems to have been playing cards, and I was surprised that he should so unreservedly play the cards of the womens movement in his conven- tion. I think he will repent doing SO.
 ''Greatest Right Is to Be Loved.'
 q am just old-fashioneds enough to condemn absolutely this movement among the women for such public participation. I have no patience with their spectacular efforts to ad- vance women's rights. I believe wo- mans greatest right is to be loved and to serve. believe the highest and most normal type is content to be reserved, modest and to exert her influence through the medium of her men folks.
 sI admire Jane Addams for what she has done at Hull House. She is do- ing afsplendid work fin her way. But I dislike to see her held up in the limelight as an example for all other women to follow We need women to bear children and attend to their homes. The men ought to be able to regulate their own politics to meet all needs, without direct assistance from women.
 MT. Roosevelt is to be blamed for 3complicating the present. political problem with the added burden of the women problem He used to be a fine fellow. Once thought him a sincere, well wisher. of the public welfare and an unselfish worker. Lately, however. he seems to have been playing cards. do not like SO much jock eying.

BARBER GAVE PATRONS
 BANkROLL BRISK MASSAGE

Philadelphia, Aug. 22-After a number of witnesses had testified that they had been charged for various tonsorial touches which they had not ordered, Edwin J. Townsend, who conducts a mo tip'' barber shop near City Hall, was held in $1. 200 bail for court at a further hearing before a Magistrate here yesterday.
 Townsend's arrest was caused by Franklin B. Forrest of Lansdowne, who testified that on Aug. 13 he had gone into the barber shop and order ed hair cut. He said one of the barbers had put stuff on his head and had used an electric vibrator, giving him crude oil treatment. 'I didn't want it." Forrest testified, "and told him to wash it out. He did. I was given a bill for $1.25 and had to leave my watch as security as I did not have that much money with me. When I demanded my watch back was told I could not get it un- til I had paid the s1.25."
 A reserve policeman testified that he had frequently been called into the shop to stop arguments between the barbers and patrons. Most of the complaints, he said, were caused by the crude oil treatment.

PROSECUTOR WOULD. USE WOMEN JURORS FOR THEIR OWN SEX

Chicago, Aug. 22.-Mrs. Florence Bernstein was acquitted last night of killing her husband as he lay sleep ing. The verdict was returned after the jury had been out twenty-six hours and after it had announced to the Court that it could not reach an agreement As
 The verdict came as surprise. Mrs. Bernstein's defense was that she could recall nones of the happenings immediately preceding or following the shooting.
 The verdict was a bitter disappoint- ment to States Attorney Wayman. said that the only sure way to secure the conviction of women murderers would be to have a8jury made up en- tirely or in part of women.
 Women are seldom convicted of murder in this country, eveN when the evidence is overwhe lming, said Mir Wayman. Men will not convict the opposite sex of such crimes. The tear stained face, white lips and trern bling hands of a woman defend ant unnerve them and destroy their judgment. We must try women slay- CTS by women juries if we would see justice done.
 mans heart, tell when her emotional display is true or false, determine when a lie falls from her lips and when the truth is told. We must amend our jury laws so that the next woman slayer in Chicago shall be tried by women.
 Mrs. Catherine Waugh McCulloch, Jane Addams and other Chicago wo- men last night expressed agreement with MT. Wayman's opinion. Several expressed desire to serve on mur-s der jury.

cUMMINs WITH BULL MOOSE?

-a f .
 Washington, Aug. 22--It was report ed here yesterday that Senator Cum mins, who was candidate for the Re- publican nomination at Chicago, would go to the support of Col. Roosevelt if he could do so without leaving the Republican party. Mir. Clnmins re- fused last night to discuss the matter further than to say that he had al- ready announced that he would not support President Taft, and that he would not join the third party.
 That so far has been the position of Senator LaFollette, though in his case there has been no question of his SUD- porting the Colonel. Tn fact, Mir La- Follette,s ambition to head the Re- publican party four years hence is the best guarantee of his regularity. MT. Cummins, it is thought, has no such view, and whatever part politics plays in his decision will come purely from public sentiment in his own State.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Stocks Dull and Prices Very
|rreguIar-Light Trading.

The market displayed no energy at its
opening yesterday morning, and stocks
simply moved in g fractional change
channel, exhibiting no special tone be
yond an appearance Of reserved
strength, which kept prices on the
average fairly firm. Traders had little
subject matter on which to start a
grist Of rumors. as the crop report,
copper statement and the Maine cleo
ton had all gone beyond the expected
to the realized stage, and each one had
brought a favorable result. But 1t was
news was to be utilized. so the bearish
sentiment which was in the air on Mon
day held over and centred its hopes on
the Mexican border situation. The pos
sible intervention of the United States
was about the only hope of the bears,
as all other factors were highly favor
able.
The steel report was referred to, but
it's promise Of increased figures offered
no hope to the pessimists, and the bulls
seemingly could. not digest the accumu-
lation OF cheerful information, so the
effect was one Of sustenance rather
than invigorating Union Pacific devel-
oped some strength, and Panhandle
had a strong tendency. The Can issues
were firm, but Sears-Roebuck expert
enced some profit taking, which caused
dor a
and Iron remained in a firm position.
so also did the steel stocks. Liggett Il
Myers became active and sold at new
high record on increased dividend fore
casts. Mexican Petroleum made a re-
covery from it's decline Of the two pre-
vious days, and the sugars were
stronger. 1t was a speciality market
the standards settling back into diurnal
dulness, and such market progress as
was exhibited was confined to a few
stocks. as even in the specials some
reactions occurred.
When the steel tonnage figures were
made public the market received the
news with no evident signs Of ANNA
ton. The market was stupid and I'M
interesting. The specials lost much OF
their vital force and sank into inactiv-
ity along with the general list. General
Chemical on small trading, however,
made a big advance. In the late part
Of the session the dulness was ex-
asperating. No decided movement
could be excited, just q slow, ponderous
downward motion, that lacked both In
fluence and suggestion. There was
selling pressure in some stocks caused
by the high call money rate, which rose
to Az, the top figure since April. but
aside from this one factor other mar
ket news features we're very bullish.
Some large operators were reported to
have turned to the bear side. In gen
eral, the action OF the market CORE
sponded to various other days OF re-
cent weeks. II the same comparison
follows as regards other weeks sudden
impulses, the market may reverse its
position without warning and send
prices up. It's present disposition does
not seem easy to diagnose. 1t is a day
to day action, without trend and void
Of feature.
