Railways Hit in Evidence Given Before
New Jersey Legislative Committee.
Jersey City, n, j., Sept. l0.-Testi-
mony to show that the Lackawanna,
Erie, Lehigh Valley Philadelphia and
Reading and Central Railroad of New
Jersey, directly or indirectly control the
anthracite mines in the east, was given
at the opening session here yesterday of
the New Jersey legislative committee,
appointed to investigate the alleged
hard coal combine. There was put in evil
dence a circular alleged to have been is
sued confidentially at Philadelphia last
spring which specifies the prices to be
charged for coal in the following season.
Charles T. Roe of Jersey City, counsel to
the committee, said he would establish
that the railroads named, not only con-
trolled the mines but, through sub
sidiary companies, were actually en-
gagged in coal mining. Harry L. Bells,
an investigator in the department of
justice and of the Pennsylvania public
utilities commission, gave testimony
tending to show that the prices of coal
were the result of an agreement between
the railroads.

made yesterday by Professor +. +.
Barnard of the Yerkes observatory at

JAIL FOR WIFE DESERTERS.
New Law Goes Into Effect in State of
Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia, Sept. l9.-When six de-
serting husbands were sentenced We'd
nesday to three months work breaking
stones at the house of correction by
Judge Breby, there was put into opera
ton for the first time in Pennsylvania
law passed by the last legislature
which the court declared would material
" reduce the cases of wife desertion in
this state. The law empowers the court
to commit recalcitrant husbands to the
house of correction, there to be placed
at some profitable employment at hard
labor and provides that sixtyfive cents
day shall be deducted from the earn
ings and paid TO the wife. The mini
mum sentence is three months, but this
may be extended to six months if the
husband shows no willingness to other
wise support his wife. Heretofore the
only punishment within the power of
the court in this state was a Jail sent
ence, leaving the mans wife and family
to be taken care of, in many instances,
by charity.

MAY ATTACK PHONE
COMBINE AS MONOPOLY
Department of Justice Now Considering
Action Against Bell
Corporations

Washington. Sept. l9.-Whether to at
tack the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company-the so-called Bell Tele-
phone Trust-under the Sherman anti
trust law. is now being considered by
Attorney General McReynolds. More
complaints from independent telephone
interests that the big company is crush
ing competition have been received re-
Gently by the attorney general, who IN
dicated yesterday that he must soon
decide whether the department OF Justice
would await the conclusion OF the pend
ing telephone inquiry by the interstate
commerce commission or undertake an
with the purpose of bring
ing civil suit if the facts warrant such
action.
The interstate commerce commissions
inquiry. undertaken at the request OF
former Attorney General Wickersham,
probably will require two or three years.
The commissions investigation is de-
signed to develop a governmental policy
involving a decision ultimately whether
the telephone should be owned and OPP
Grated by the government, or competl-
tion enforced under the Sherman law. or
the situation regulated by commissions
as railroads are. Complaints TO the de-
partment of justice allege that the Bell
company acquires control Of local tele-
phone companies and then refuses to
connect its long distance lines with com
petitors. The federal government can
intervene only on long distance business
crossing state lines. The question is eN-
tremely difficult because the Sherman
law has never been applied to the tele-
phone in a court decision and the intri-
cate questions of law involved are ex-
pected to be settled by the suit brought
by Attorney General McReynolds
against the Bell company and its subsi-
diaries on the Pacific coast

If cake is heavy, it can be used for

A little vinegar put into water in

To prevent custard dishes or cups from
cracking when pouring boiled custard
into them, place the dish or cup on
damp cloth.
Always put piece of muslin round
the band underneath the ribbon or silk
when trimming a hat. This saves the

When making apple pie the flavor is

in good color if a few drops of lemon
juice are squeezed over the apples just
before the crust is put on.
