President in Statement
Denies Charges, Promising
to Defend Suit vigorously

NEW YORK. Nov. President
Wheeler, of the American Can Com
pany, made the following statement
today:
This company is not disturbed by
The action OF the government. Neither
in its origin nor in the conduct OF it's
business has monopoly or restraint
of trade been attempted. No unfair
has been resorted to.
There have been no agreements or
as to prices. The
company has not sought in any way
to dominate the trade, nor has 1t any
such share of it (only about one
third as would enable it to do so if
1t wanted to.
Competition is free and active.
The company will defend the suit
vigorously and confidently. and it is
the belief of its officers and counsel
that no one interested In the COM
pany need feel any uneasiness as to
the outcome"

can trust, which the department of
justice alleges controls a large per-
centage of. business AT. the United

packages Of tinpIate. The American
Sheet and Tinplate Company was
made defendant because of an
agreement IL is alleged to have with
the American company to sell 1t tin
for cans at preferential rate.
In it's complaint the government
alleges practices in restraint of trade,
agreements by absorbed concerns not
to re-enter the field, contracts by con-
sumers to buy from the trust" ex-
clusiyely and arbitrary fixing of
prces. Attorney General McReynolds
asked In the bill for O. dissolution

New Jersey Entitled to
More Consular Offices

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.--New Jer-
sey is entitled to a larger representa-
tion in the consular service than she
has at present. Secretary of state
Bryan has just made that discovery.
John e. Osborne, the assistant sec
retary, today sent several blank ap-
plications and information forms to
Senator MARITIME and Senator Hughes.
In the accompany letters, Mr. Os-
borne said:
"The department endeavors so to
distribute these appointments as 10
give to each State its due proportion,
based on population. Your State IS
under-represented in the service, and
/ therefore write you that you may
suggest this branch of the public
service to some of your friends who
you believe would make good consular
officers.
Competitive examinations will be
held next year The necessary infor-
nation can be obtained from the state
department or through Senators
Hughes or MARITIME.

newark SCIENTIST
DISCOVERS RAD|UM
IN AMERICAN ORE
DR.. Otto F. ReinhOld, With I'm
conscious Aid of FOur-Year=
Old Son, Makes Find.
WILL GO TO PARIS AND
CONSULT NINE. CURIE
Raw Material from Which Min
eraI Was Isolated Is Product
of Middle West.

That radium, most precious of all
the metals of the earth and worth
three thousand times its weight in
gold, has been produced in Newark is
the announcement of DIR. Otto +.
Reinhold, of SO Demarest street. Dr.
Reinhold today showed to a reporter
for the Star three glass tubes glowing
with the precious substance and made
the announcement that it had been
produced and condensed from between
thirty and forty pounds of American
ore.
The technical laboratory conducted
by DR. Reinhold is on the upper floors
of his home at the Demarest street
address. 1t was here that the radium
vapor was produced and the story Of
its discovery is as interesting as the
story itself is astounding. 1t was
really the mischievous 4-year-old son
of the scientist who found" the ra-
dunn.
Boy Causes Discovery.
Dr. Reinhold was testing some ore
which had been sent to the laboratory
from the Middle West when he was
called downstairs to attend to Willard,
his son. He left test flask contain
ing a residium produced from the ore
over a Bunsen burner. 1t was night
and he turned out the light in the
room and also turned off the burner
He was delayed some time on the
lower floor.
When he returned to the laboratory
through the dark hall into the darl.
room, and was standing before 1t he
was surprised to see the rays of light
in the tube. AT first he thought that
the tube, which had been at red heat
still was glowing. Investigation
proved that this was not the fact.
Then his intense interest in the phe-
nomenon prompted him to make every
test until he had proven to his sat
isfaction that the rays were cmana-
ton rays and thai he had isolated a
minute quantity of the mineral which,
it is announced, will do almost any
thing provided that particular amy
thing" has heretofore been considered
impossible.
Three Experiments Successful.
The nrst precious deposit was sealed
in a glass tube and other experiments
at once undertaken. A second and a
third time the emanation was pro-
duced. And in all three experiments
only thirty pounds of ore We're used,
but, of course, the outcome itself is
just big enough to be noticed.
The small amount of ore is worthy
of note through the fact that in the
experiments carried on at Paris by
Nine. Curie, raw material to produce

The Army line was holding fast
After Nichols failed to advance tho
ball, Brown stepped back to the 20
yard line and kicked a beautiful goal
from placement This gave the Navy
first blood, and the Annapolis con-
tingent almost went frantic with joy.
The Army kicked off to the Navy,s
25-yard line and the ball was run
back ten yards. The Navy was here
penalized five yards for off-side, the
ball going to the Navy's 30-yard line.
The Navy fambled the ball and an
Army back fell on it on the Navy's
30-yard line. Off-side play gave the
Navy another penalty of FIVE yards.
Hoge made three yards through the
left side of the Navy line. Joueft
made one yard. The Army dropped
back as If preparing for field goal
from the 35-yard line. but 1t turned

grounded behind the Navy goal line
and went for touchback. The bali

The next play around the Army
right side also failed to advance the
ball. Nichols punted to midfield,
where Prichard was downed the in
stant he got the ball. Jouett on
centre play carried the ball six yards.
Here West Point attempted another
forward pass, but there was no one
in position to receive 1t, and Prichard
threw the ball to the ground as he
was about to be tackled by the Navy.
This resulted only in the loss of a
