The nature Of her replies made him
doubt that she was listening closely.
He accused her of having thoughts
elsewhere, and she Indignantly retort-
ed that she had heard every word.
He continued reading for few
minutes and then glanced at her.
From the far-away look in her eyes
he knew her thoughts were not upon
the item he was reading. So, turn
ing the sheet as an excuse for
pause, he continued as follows, ap-
parently reading:
Last night, about two o'clock in
the afternoon, just few minutes be-
fore breakfast, hungry boy about
sixty years old bought an orange for
nine pins and threw it through con-
crete wall twenty feet thick. With a
cry of despair he jumped into dry
mill pond, broke his arm at the knee
joint, and was drowned. It was only
ten years later, on the same day and
at the same hour, that goat gave
birth to six elephants. A high wind
then came up and killed three dead

Another Ruling Against Daughters.

Austin, Textile Daughters of the
Republic again have been ruled
against, and the $4,000 which they col
lected in rentals of the Alamo prop
erty, and which they have loaned out
at Houston, must be turned into the
state treasury, according to an opin-
ion given Monday to the governor by
the attorney generals department. 1t
is understood that the governor, after
this money is deposited with the state
treasurer, will ask the legislature to
appropriate it for use in the restora
ton of the Alamo. The state now
has nearly $4,000 available for the
work and with the additional appro
priation it is believed that the restora
ton of the Alamo can be completed.

COREY CONTRADICTS GARY.
Declares Latter Knew About Steel
Pools Prior to Abolition Order.

NEW YORK, January 25.-The partici-
patton of subsidiaries of the United
States Steel Corporation in pools organ
lied for the purpose Of fixing prices was
known to Judge Ebert II. Gary, chair
man Of the corporation. long before he
gave orders that the pools should be abol-
ished, according to William E. Corey, for
mer president of the corporation Mr..
Corey so testified yesterday on cross-ex-
animation in the government suit to dis
solve the combination under the Sherman
antitrust law.
The testimony preceded an acknowl-
edgment by Mr.. Corey that his resgna-
1910 was the sequel of a dispute between
himself and Judge Gary as to who was
chief in authority and that the finance
committee of the corporation had upheld
Judge Gary.
1t gave direct contradiction to that of
Chairman Gary before the Stanley steel
investigating committee. that with the
exception of the rail combination -
which. he said, did not fix prices, he had
no knowledge of the existence of pools
and had ordered them abolished as soon
as they had been brought to his atten-
ton. This was In the latter part of 1904.
Mr.. corey SWore tndt Judge Odly
knew all about the pools all the time
because he attended some of the meet
ings" Although a meeting of the plate
and structural pool lin 1902 or 1903" was
the only one at which he could distinctly
remember that Judge Gary was present
Mr.. Corey said he was sure he was pres
ent at other meetings.
Rumors current in Wall street that the
United States Steel Corporation intended
voluntarily to dissolve We're denied by
Judge Gary. The chairman would not
comment on Coreys testimony.
