SPECIAL MACHINES NEVER
 APPEARED ON THE MARKET. National Company Bought Them Up,
 Testifies Chalmers.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 6.-Hugh Cna1- mers of Detroit on the witness stand today in the trial of former officials of the National Cash Register, charg- ed with violating the criminal section of the Sherman anti trust act, testi- fled that when he left the employ of the National company five years ago that it controlled 95 per cent of the cash register buhiness of the world
 Chalmers said that the National company kept a record of the sale of all competitive machines, and that through this record he was able to get data which enabled him to make the above statement.
 Chalmers testified that he purchased the register business of the Toledo Scales and Cash Register company for the National company for s115,000, and that the National at once stopped the manufacturing of these machines. The owner of the company, Henry Theo- bold, who was a former general man ager of the National company, was taken to Dayton, Ohio, previous to the sale and shown the machines in the process of construction that the Ma tionaI company intended to put in the field to compete against the Toledo machines. The sale was effected short ly afterWard, according to Chalmers, and these special machines never ap- peared on the market.

COURT DIsAPPRovEs
 UNION PACIFIC PLAN.
Will Not Comply With Dissolution De-
 cree, It Declares.

Washineton, Jan. 6.-The supreme court today held that the plan ad- vanced by Union Pacific attorneys for the disposition of the entire stock holding of the Union Pacific Railroad company in the Southern Pacific Rail road company by transfer to the stock holders of the Union Pacific company would not so effectually end the Union Pacific merger as to comply with it's dissolution decree.
 Government officials who heard Jus t1ce Day were convinced that a com plete end of the merger must be agreed upon and that any paper dissolution would be rejected by court.
 The court took the position that a corporation is only another name for the stockholders and to allow the Un- ion Pacific stockholders to buy the stock now held by the Union Pacific Railroad company, the corporation of which they are the stockholders, would amount to nothing effectua1. This ac- tion is regarded as highly important precedent in antitrust litigation.
 The case now will go back to the district court of Utah, in which the suit originated, for that court to en- force the decree of dissolution directed by the supreme court.

Still Cinging
 To AdrianopIe
TURKS INSISTING UPON ITS RE.
 TENTIoN.
OTHER CONCESSIONS
Allies, Suspend Conference After Hear
 Ing Rechad Pasha's statement- Will Be Resumed Later in the Week.

London, Jan. 6.-The first stage of the peace negotiations, which is re- garded by diplomats largely as one of pretense on Turkeys part to avoid mands of the allies without pressure fom the powers, is over now. It is expected that the second stage will soon begin. with. the powers acting g strings which will compel Turkey to concede the bulk of the allies de- mands.
 Without money, her army inadequate and demoralized, her statesmen realize that Turkey is in no condition to re- sume hostilities with the slightest chance of success.
 Still clines to AdrianepIe.
 At today's sitting of the conference Turkey renounced in favor of the allies her rights in the island of Crete and promised further rect1fcation of the Thracean frontier, but insisted upon the retention of Adrianop1e. The allies declared that this was not sat isfactory and suspended the confer ence.
 That does not mean a rupture of the negotiations. The conference may be resumed either by Turkey giving no- tiHcatton that she has fresh proposals to submit. or by the allies, on the ground that they have communica- tions to make the Turks. It is gener- ally expected that the work of the conference will be taken up again at the end of the week, when the festiv- tiles in connection with the Orthodox Christmas are ended.
 Allies Had Prepared Programme.
 The allies today held a short meet ing before the official sitting and dis cussed three possibilities with refer ence to the statement which Rechad Pasha had been asked to make re- specting the Balkan ultimatum and agreed on the reply of the allies. First, if Rechad Pasha's statement was arrogant and provocative, then the advice of the pow CTS in favor of moderation they would break off the negotiations; second, if Rechad were courteous but the new concessions unimportant, they would suspend the conferences; third, if Re- chad made important concessions, without absolutely conceding the al- lies. demands they would adjourn the sitting until Friday. in order to al- low time to consult their respective governments.
 Criticises Allies Altitude.
 The expectation was intense when the Servian delegate, Stojan Novako- witch, opened the session. Rechad Pasha before reading his statement, made a brief speech. He said that Turkey was prepared to give further proof of her conciliatory spirit and desire to avert bloodshed. but he re- gretted that the allies seemed deter mined to concede nothing on their part and turned a deaf ear to human ltarian considerations

POLICE USE CLUBS ON
 NEW YORK STRIKERS.
Five Strikers Receive Sentences of
 Ten Days in Workhouse.

New York, Jan. 6.-In their, efforts to intercept $50 young women employ ed in the wholesale clothing manufac- turing concern of J. L. Taylor 6 com pany as they were leaving work this evening, 800 striking garment workers, the majority of them women, attacked the police on guard in front of the building. Automobiles were waiting to take the young women to their homes and the police had formed cordon on each side of the doorway across the sidewalk to the curb. The police used their clubs on the outstretched arms of the strikers who reached under their arms to seize the coats and dresses of the girls. The automobiles were quick Iy filled and rushed away.
 This was the only disturbance of the day which marked the beginning of massed picketing by the strikers Five strikers, arrested on charges of con ducting the strike in an unlawful man ner, were sentenced by a magistrate to ten days each in the workhouse.
 Leaders of the strike claimed late to- day that 10000 garment workers were out and that the trade was at stand still.
 At Newark, N J., the police were busy today keeping in check the 500 strikers who formed in bodies and marched the factory districts. Sew eral cases of violence to employees who had refused to quit work were report ed and five arrests were made.

ORANGES AND LEMONS
 DAMAGED BY FREEZE.
Fires Built in Groves to Raise the
 Temperature

Los Angeles, Jan. 6.-Thousands of men were out tonight in an effort to save from further damage by cold weather Southern CaIifornia's orange &nd lemon crop, valued at $50. 1000, 900. The loss entailed by last nights freeze cannot estimated accurately, but it Was so serious, growers and citrus ex- Esrts say, that it will have an appre- cfable effect upon the price of fruit The weather bureau predicted for to- night temperatures as low as or lower than those which last night shattered the record of 30 years
 Within a radius of 125 miles of Los Angeles, an area which embraces vir tually all of the important orange and lemon growing sections, smudge pots by the thousand smouldered, emitting dense clouds of smoke. which it was hoped would raise the temperature within the groves sufficient to prevent further freezing of fruit on the trees.
 According to the sales managers of various growers associations hardly Enore than a tenth of the orange crop has been shipped out. The remainder. they assert, will show serious losses.
 Suburban trolley lines were more or less demoraliZed today through the freezing of air brake valves.
 Long icicles on ffreplugs were ob- jects of curiosity and in Los Angeles and other towns of the orange belt ice formed tnickly- enough on standing water for children to skate on it.

Patrick s Plea
 From His Cell
FINAL APPEAL FOR LIBERTY
 MADE PUBLIC.
BY GOVERNOR sULzER
Papers Were Sealed Up by Governor Dix After Lawyers Pardon-Anxious te See His Dying Relatives.

Albany, N. Y.. Jan. 6-The record or Albert II. Patriclxs remarkable fight TOT freedom was unsealeG tonight by Governor Sulzer. When Governor Dix on thanksgiving eve signed the par don which released the convicted slay CT Of William Marsh Rice from Sing Sing prison where he was serving a He sentence, the governor ordered the papers sealed.
 Patrick's final appeal for liberty which Governor Dix had before him when he granted the pardon. was a letter written early in November to colonel Joseph F. Scott, superintendent or state prisons, who had expressed the belief that Patrick should be given his freedom.
 His Wife's Health Shattered.
 This letter told of the efforts of Patrick's relatives to bring about his release. especially those of his wife iken of St. Louis.
 Time and again things have come 10 light, says the letter, which in the ordinary course of events would have set any man at liberty against sp1racy. But as hope has been dashed to earth time and again, my wife has survived the shock and sought reso- luteiy Tor a man who was unafraid and unpurchaseable and yet had the power to act. Thus the young years of her life have been passed and thus her health has been shattered
 "Disappcintment May Kill Me.u

 My mother, who has surrendered all her property in my defense, and whom | have not seen since March. 1905, when my case was before the court of appeals, is now IT years of age and nearly dead.
 Blow Fell Upon Others
 It will be seen from all this how much depends upon me and that the blow at me has struck beyond me and fallen upon those for whom it was never intended
 Patrick asked for ah unconditional communication so as to ''be free to es- tabIsh my innocence in court and to afford the state an opportunity to try me again for the murder of Rice"
 Patrick originally was sentenced to deatn, but the sentence was commuted to life Imprisonment by Governor Hig- gins, in December, 1906.

CLEARING HOUSE A
 FINANCIAL GEAR Regulated Rates and Interest in All Bank Transactions.

Washington, Jan 6.-The operations or the clearing house association of Salt Lake City. Utah, in it's contro- versy with the National Copper bank or this city were explained to the money trust investigating committee or the house today. Five Salt Lake C1ty bankers testified.
 w. W. Armstrong, president of the National Copper bank, racounted the circumstances that resulted in the separation of his bank from the clear ing house. He said that when the Cop- per National declined to abide by a. rule adopted by the clearing house forbldding banks to pay interest on open or checking accounts, the eight other members of the clearing house dissolved the association and immed- lately formed a new one with a con- st1tut1on including the rule to which the Copper National objected
 The Copper National declined to s,1b- scribe to the rule or to enter the new association. MT. Armstrong said that 1t was costing his bank S25,OaO a year extra to operate outside of the clear ing house. He asserted that the Salt Lake clearing house rules regulated rates and interest to be charged in practically every transaction between a bank and it's clients, and he endeay- ored to argue that the association was in restraint of trade, usurping the functions of the officers of the banks.
Norwich bulletin., 1913-01-07

Washington, Jan. 6.-The supreme court of the United States today laid down the far reaching principle that corners of interstate commodities, such as articles of food and clothing, are in violation of the Sherman anti trust law and held thar. as far as the Sherman law was concerned. the indictment in the New York federal court of James Patten, Eugene G.. Scales, Frank H. Hayne and William F. Brown for "conspiring to run an alleged cotton corner was valid The cases against them was sent back for trial or other proceedings.
 Three Dissenters.
 Justice Vandeventer announced the opinion of the court. Justice Lurton delivered a dissenting opinion in which Chief Justice White and Justice Holmes concurred. The majority of the court held that the circuit court for southern New York had decided that the indictment charged with holding of the cotton from the mar ket a necessary element of corner as admitted by the government. The found the indictment did not so charge and for that reason the indict- ment was faulty. According to all the Justices, the correctness of the holding OI tIlG ClICult court dSa IO LlAe ment charging a withholding" and as to the sufficiency of the indictment on other technical points had to be ac- cepted at this time without question by the supreme court.
 A Way Found to Prevent Corners"
 The points thus left undecided to- day may be made the basis, for bring ing the case to the court again if the defendants are convicted on trial
 Solicitor General Bu1litt wGO pre- sented the governments side of the case issued a statement after the de cision in which he said that at last way had been found to stop the run ming up of prices by men who sought to corner the market not only of cot ton, but wheat, corn. lard and other connodities(
