which he said always regarded as en-
tering into a just tariff.
Vice President Campbell said that
the only rule he ever knew a tariff
vas based on Judgment.
Mr.. Ives in starting his attack on the
proposed increase in rates presented
resolutions from various trade organiza-
tons and large manufacturers protesting
against the new rates on the ground
they would throw out of adjustment the
rates on the Boston & Maine and those
Of other roads and Cypress business by
their inequality and unreasonableness.
He eontended that owing 10 the density
of traffic at the big terminal cities,
rates ought to be lower there than at
other points on the read. In sections like
northern New England where traffic is
slight the cost of the service is greater
than at the terminal cities and should
be accordingly higher.
He pointed out that under the proposed
Increase it would cost less to ship mer-
chaudise from New York to Springfield
than it would to ship it from Boston 30
miles nearer Springfield. The rates from
Boston to Springfield would be from II
to Is cents per 100 pounds, while the
rates from New York would be from 10
tn y cents.
"What is your idea OF the management
Of the Boston & Maine?" asked Chair
man Prouty. Mr. Ives said he was not
in a position to pass an opinion on il as
the representative of the Boston Cham
Der of Commerce, where a diversity OF
views existed in regard to the road.
Edgar J. Rich, general solicitor for the
Boston & Maine. replied with shoW OF
spirit that the Boston x Maine did not
come before the board TO ask for a sin
gle dollar because of present or past in
efficiency. 1t asked for merely what it
was entitled. he said
At this point Chairman Proutv stated
his belief that the infexible mileage
scale could not be applied to all points.
He adjourned the hearing until tnnor-
row afternoon. He said he wanted to
talk the matter over in the morning with
the representatives of the public service
commission present to decide Just what
was wanted by the people OF New Eng
land.

The Testimony |nducts New
Side into Eaton Case.
Wanted Mrs. Eaton 10 Leave
Admiral, Says Witness.
State viii Probably Rest Its Case,
Today..0thsr Evidence.

Plymouth, Mass. Oct. 21.--A refer
ence to "A wealthy lover in Chicago"
who wanted Mrs. Jennie May Eaton
to leave her husband, was introduced,
today. by the prosecution as showing
a possible motive in the trial of Mrs.
Eaton, charged with the murder of
her husband, Rear Admiral Joseph G..
Eaton.
The evidence was given in the tes-
timony of Mrs. Marshall Bursey of
Washington, d. c., who said that
eight months before ethe death of the
admiral, Mrs. Eaton told her of the
Chicago man and his proposal.
According to Mrs. Bursey, Mrs. Eat
on did not disclose to her the name
Of the alleged lover. but said that he
owned much property and had prom
ised to leave it all to her.
The prosecution placed Mrs. Bur
sey on the stand to substantiate the
claim of Assistant District Attorney
Katzmann in his opening, that a mo-
tive would be shown for the murder.
Mrs. Bursey said that was while
Mrs. Eaton was in Washington, fol-
lowing the birth of child to her
daughter, Mrs. June Reyes, that she
made the statement regarding her Chi
cago lover, and said that she was
afraid that her husband, the Admiral
would poison her. Mrs. Eaton told the
witness that Admiral Eaton had at
tackled her several times at night and
at one time she awoke to find him in
jeeting medicine into her arm. Mrs.
Eaton also said. according to Mrs. Bur
sey, that she was going to have the

the indictment charging Thomas F..
Watson, editor, author and once Pres
idential candidate of the Populist par
ty with sending obscene matter
through the mails was Illegal, Federal
Judge Rufus L. Foster, today, ordered
the case thrown out of court.
A large audience attended today's
session and when tn" judge announced
his ruling, the spectators broke into
cheering. Judge Foster ignored this
demonstration. whicn quickly subsidized.
1t was solely upon the contention
raised by Mr.. Watson himself that
the court ordered the case dismissed.
Extended argument on the motion had
been made by s. q. McLendon of
defendants counsel, when the de

Other phases of the matter"
Mr.. Watson addressed the court
briefly, laying stress upon his claim
that the indictment should not select
certain passages of the article writ
ten by him, but should include the
entire matter He said that unless this
were true, it would be possible to in
dict persons mailing copies of the BIZ
Bile or the criminal code of Georgia.
Argument against the motion by
District Attorney Alexander Alderman
was brief and limited to a defence of
the governments position that the in
dictment need merely indicate the al
legged obscene passages and not the
entire article. In announcing his de-
cision Judge Foster said.

SEC'Y REDFIELO
APPEALS FOR MORE
FUNDS FOR Dept.

Detroit. Mich. Oct. 21.-With the
declaration that "the tide of American
business in the foreign field is at its
flood and that means must be em-
ployed to maintain it. Secretary Red
field addressing the Board of Com
merce here, today, made a direct APP
peal To business men to ask Congress
to appropriate more funds for the
prosecution of the work of his depart
ment.
The secretary explained his proposed
reform of commercial representation
abroad. through the appointment of a
corps of special agents and superVl-
sion of the commercial activities of
the various consuls.
Mr.. RedfieId declared his depart
ment had an ambitious program of in
vestigation and trade furtherance. lie
said it was the intention of the gov
eminent to press it vigorously II
funds were provided
For example, said he, ''at this
present moment the inquiry into the
pottery industry. which is very I'M
portant and intended to be very
helpful investigation, is almost at q
standstill for lack of funds.

great advance of American export

1t appears in this Indictment. in
all three counts, that the publication
alleged to have been sent through the
mails in violation of the law is an
extract from "a complete article. 1t
is clearly my opinion that the govern
ment is required TO plead the entire
article. The article is obscene as a
whole. or is not obscene, and we can
not take out n few paragraphs here
and there and charge them as OBJ
scene and make them the basis of an
indictment 1t may be that a para
graph here and there is sufficient to
impress the whole publication with
obscenity, but the defendant is entitled
to be charged with sending the COM
plete article
The publication is an entire thing.
II is not part or extract. We would
be able to indict a sender of the BIZ
Bile on this theory. We might take
the Episode of Potiphar's wife or the
widow or something of that sort and
indict just as Well.
Il am not pretending To rule on
any other feature of this indictment.
The question of whether it is OBJ
scene is set out in a dead language is
not passed upon. On this view l will
sustain the motion to quash.
1T is possible For the government
to re-indict and make. these entire ar
ticles part of the indictment"
What course the United States dis
trict attorney will pursue still is in
doubt, as he has refused so far to dis
cuss the matter.

\/OUNG girls are wearing great
 many semi-princesse, or one
 piece dresses and also many variations of the favorite Balkan idea
 Both these styles are good, for both are essentially youthful. The semi princessc dress that is pictured here Is made with long sleeves that are sewed to the blouse at the elongated line and these sleeves are prettily shaped. It would be difficult to find a prettier or smarter model Tn the illustration. the sleeves and collar are of one of the new fancy silks and the dress itself Is made from novelty material in silk and wool that is almost as light as silk itself yet has somewhat more durability The girl who likes long sleeves will find that suggestion a good one Perhaps it will be a little difficult to realize that the white linen dress with cyclet embroidery shown at the extreme right Is made after the same design, but such Is the fact: and still another variation could be made .n white charmeuse satin and lace in place Of the linen and er1- broidery; for while this dress is made on exceedingly simple lines, it is just as well adapted to the hand,omar materials as to the simpler ones

THE soft silks are at their pret-
 tiest when they are draped.
 There Is very attractive fancy for making the skirt of silk and the bodice of chiffon in the same color, as suggested by the second figure of the group. In this instance, the skirt is made of a broch& crepe and the bodice is one of the very newest ones, arranged over a lining of thin silk and giving the effect of waistcoat while lace trimming in arranged beneath the chiffon. The costume idea is preserved by the matching color yet there is the advantage of the thin blouse The skirt is draped at the front but plain at the back and, while the drapery is slight, ir gives a same design is shown made entirely of white crepe de chine with trimming only of lace and with it is worn one of the fashionable sashes of velvet ribbon in bright color. The design in the two cases is the same but the effect is entirely different owing to the diff ferent treatment, and the possibility of varying any one model make one of the very interesting features of the
