Charles Cook, a printer. Of No. 24S 9Th
street. was sentenced to fifteen days in the
workhouse yesterday by Magistrate House,
in the Essex Market court, after Mrs.
Sarah Ornstein, of No. l4l East 4th street.
told the magistrate that Cook had forced
his attentions on her and taken her by
the arm despite her protestations.
Mrs. Ornstein, whose husband keeps a
saloon at I'd street and First avenue, left
the saloon shortly after midnight yester-
day and started to walk to her home.
Just before she got to 4th street and First
avenue, she said, Cook walked up beside
her and asked her II he might walk along
with her, at the same time doffing his
hat with a sweeping bow. She tried 10
avoid the man, but when he took her by
the arm and started to cross the street
with her she screamed. and Patrolman
Riley ran up and arrested Cook.
When Cook faced the magistrate he said
he thought he knew Mrs. Ornstein and
only spoke TO her for that reason.
Magistrate House, who showed his evil
dent disgust at this excuse, In sentencing
the prisoner, said:

inability of the farmer TO buy what he
needs or desires, unless. as Secretary
Wilson suggests. the prices should be
very seriously deprecated as the result
OF political developments.

ports indicating material reductions In
the cost of other staples, as. for PS.
stance, sugar. The price Of sugsEls)
reported fallen 2-3 cents pounds; hs'
compared with the price prevailing on
October /. 1911. AS we consume $780,
900 pounds OF sugar year, the re-
duced cost of living effected by this
single item will amount to sos, 100000.
Still another staple which is mate
rally cheaper Is dried fruits, on which
the price is reported to have fallen 10
per cent.
In the light Of these figures, the Pres
ident feels that he has ample warrant
for declaring that the crest of the high
cost OF living wave has passed, and that
It Is now rapidly receding.

s1O0OOo,oOo Saving In Potatoes.


The decreased price Of potatoes will
alone effect saving of nearly 500, &.
100000 in the cost of living. On Octo-
Der the producers were getting oil
bushel for potatoes, as compared
|, with 1873 cents year ago. This IS
due to an increased production Of 81
per cent. AS we consume 350,0OO,OO
bushels Of potatoes and there is a re-
duction of 81 cents bushel, the actual
reduction Of cost is S94, 100000, even #
prices do not fall still lower
The cotton crop Of this year is the
largest on record, and although the
price on October l was slightly above
that Of the same date last year, 1t was
81 cents less than the price two years
ago, and when the new crop comes on
the market may go still lower, so that
some reduction in the cost Of cotton
goods may be looked for.

dent that on the nine great crops of the

Furthermore, the increased crops wifi
