Mrs. Pickett will be here
Friday afternoon Aug. Is
and every old soldier in the
county will want to hear her.
She is the widow of General
Pickett who led the most ia
nous charge in the history Of
the world at the battle of
Gettysburg. North and South
alike had nothing but words Of
praise for General Pickett for
his GOODNESS and daring were
the talk of the world. His ia
NOUS charge was the last straw
and had it been successful
there might have been a diff
ferent story to tell when his
torians write the history of the
Civil war but when he was
thrown back and the pick Of
che Southern army lay dead or
lying on the field of battle, I! e
South had given her best and
from that time on WIS a van
quished foe. Mrs. Pickett will
give her side of the story of
that great conflict and show
YOU clearly that the Southern
women were just as true to
their cause as the women of
the North but after the war
was over they were just as ark
ious to see peace restored and
the United States a united ma
ton. Mrs. Pickett will be
worth coming miles to hear.

HOPE, TO BEAT PETROL TRUST
British Automobile Authorities Seeking TO Discover a
Cheaper Efficient Substitute to Dsplace the Fuel Which
Is Now Steadily Climbing in Price

.of fact. there is no competition i'm the
petrol market here. Consumers are
compelled to pay whatever price the
companies decide upon.
we confidently hope our iuycstiga-
ticns viii lead 10 the discovery of an
efficient cheaper substitute.
There is now being used a. fuel
called bcnzol. a by-product from coal.
What We want 10 know is IL it can be
produced i'm sufficient quantitics in this
country so as TO make IT = sound com
mcrcial proposition. The yield per ton
Of coal is between one and two gallons
Of what IS called 100 per cent bcnzol,
but the coke resulting from the pro-
duction Of this liquid is now suitable
only for use in blast furnaces. our
experiments Will be directed toward the
discovery Of means Of producing u
coke of q softer variety. suitable ior
general consumption.
we have great hopes of rendering
motorists reasonably Independent OF
what in effect is a petrol trust as the
result OF the present efforts
IT may be taken as certain that if the
tests prove that marketable coke can
be produced from coal together with
proportionatc Weld of bcnzol com
pany Of almost unlimited capital will DO
formed TO establish mandatory and
place bcnzol on the market at price
approaching onc-half that for which
petrol Is now sold The committee has
been assured Of the fullest financial
support if the tests are successful, but
as vet they arc in the initial stages and
no definite statement as to results can
he made Cor some considerable time.

London. March S.--The British auto
mobile authorities. alarmed by repeated
increases in the price of petrol. are
making an organized effort 10 discover
a cheaper substitute. If they are sue
cessful it is probable that company
with a capital f several millions VIII
be formed to exploit the new fuel and
fight the petrol trust.
Petrol has increased i'm price II cents
a gallon during the last twelve months.
and with the prospect that the present
price, AZ cents gallon. will 90 still
higher. the necessity for immediate
action is fully recognized
Representatives of the Royal Auto
mobile Club, the Automobile Associa-
ton, the Motor Union and the Society
of Motor Manufacturers and Traders
have formed a committee for the invcs-
tigation OF petrol substitutes. a pre-
hmnary fund of $500 has been raised,
and the committee purposes making a
practical scientific test of the poten
tialities Of alternative fuels.
The secretary of the Automobile As
ISOLATION, who is acting secretary Of
the new committee, informed The Trib-
une correspondent that the constant
increases in The price Of petrol were
due TO the fact that the two big pro-
ducing companies were not in compe-
tition.
1t IS denied that there is any work
ing agreement between the two com
panics he said but it is significant
that they control the petrol market At
any prices which from time TO time
they choose to charge As a matter

London. March S.-Arthur Newton.
the lawyer who came 80 much into the

at Bow Street police court on the
charge Of conspiracy To defraud Dr.
Hans Thorsch. u wealthy young citizen
Of Vienna. The sum involved was
SllJGD. The magistrate in remand
ing the accused man described the case
as ~ regular swindlc" and imposed the
heavy bail of 10000.
Alongside Arthur Newton in the pris-

tratc refused to take bail, while war-

himself Count Andor Fcstctics and
says he is Il Hungarian nobleman.
Dr. Thorsch, according TO his evil
dcncc to-day, was induced by the con-
spirators 10 part with his fortune on
the prctcncc that il was to be invested
for him. The investments chosen were

'COMMONER' DISPLAYED AT
u. S. EMBASSY IN LONDON
Copies Appeared When Bryan
Began To Be Mentioned
for Cabinet.
IN Cahle 10 The TrIhunc.

London, March s. Considerable
amusement has been caused I'm diplo-
matte and official circles in London in
the last few weeks by the fact that
ever since w. J. Bryan began to be
spoken Of at the probable Secretary of
les of The Commoner" have been dis
played on table In the reception room
at the American Embassy. An cxpla-
nation has been given by William +.
Cresson, second secretary Of the En-
bassy, who at the same time admitted
that soon after the election last fall
he had written to Senator Ncwlands
of Nevada, reminding him that ne had
voted for Newlands for the United
States Senate. The explanation of the
appearance of THE Commoner" at the
Embassy was brief and simple. being
merely that il seemed wise thing to
do in the circumstances. Cresson also
has been busy for the last two weeks
explaining why Hallctt johnson. third
secretary. was i'm charge of the Embas-
~ during the interval preceding J. Il.
Laughlin's confirmation as first secrc-
tary. although Crcsson was second sec
rotary ana on duty at the Embassy.
He has been the target Of considerable
raillery on account of this state Of af-
fairs. 1t has taken him Il good deal Of
time 10 explain 10 various inquirers
that he applied last fall for leave of alb
sence and. though he has not been
away from the Embassy. the Inference
is that he was technically considered
not there. Hence Mr.. Johnson was in
charge.
