OF half interest in Plants shoe ma

The government contends that Plant
was bought UP in pursuance of plan
to moncpolize the shoe machinery bus
mess OF the country.
In support of this contention, they
introduced conversations between Sid
ney w. Winslow. the president of the
United Shoe Machinery Co.. and
Charles Fl. Jones. treasurer of the
Commonwealth Leather and Shoe Co.
of Boston. The conversations which
extended over three days. related to
the objections of shoe manufacturers
to the so-called Tying" clauses in the
leases. whereby shoe manufacturers
were required to use certain machines
produced by the defendant with cer-
tain other machines.
President Winslow declined to aban-
don the leases and said in substance
according to Mr.. Jones. who was
the stand. that the clauses gave him
complete control and that without con
troll other manufacturers would creep
in with the result that the shoe manu-
facturers would use one company
against the other and the intense com
petition that formerly existed woulf
return. making /. difficult for the ma
chinery manufacturers to get their
money from the shoe manufacturers
The trial was adjourned, until next

For IS holes Schmidt made the Eng
lishman fight every inch of the way,
He was out in 80, Hilton in 3S, bat it
was only by running down 25-foot
putt for three that Hilton finally won
at the 10Th hole.
If Schmidt had had half the luck
of Walter ]. Travis, who won the
championship nine years ago. he would
have stood at less than up on the
Englishman. Time and again he lip
ped the hole with long puts. although
on the first hole he put teed brilliant

COW Hiltop's four. An extra hole had
to be played. Hilton out drove
Schmidt off the tee. but the Massa-

Hilton. however, holed long putt and
won the hole in three against
Schmidt's four.
A gallary of 1000 followed the match.
but the spectators did not disturb the
Americans equanimity. He was as
cool and collected at all times as the
most seasoned veteran. He took his

All day long from 9 o'clock un-

that fully 10000 people visited the

Had her officers or her citizens

People of this borough, by foment-
ing murder and consorting with
murderers, have not only violated

Judgment, have forfeited the high
privilege of further acting as a
Governmental agency of the State.
/ therefore recommend the enact
ment of appropriate legislation

defiance and outrage the peace and

may be obliterated from among her
