the court could go into the question
Of the legality of the formation of the
company. The United States supreme
court had decided he said. earlier in
the case that the original combination
by which the company was formed,
was legal.
Attorney James A. Fowler, repre-
sent the prosecution, said that the de-
cision of the supreme court was upon
the pleading and not upon the facts
Judge Putnam said Mr.. Fowler was
right and that the court would go into
the whole question.
Mr.. Fowler then took up the restrie-
lions in the leases which limited the
use of certain machines of the United
Co to work on material prepared on
certain other machines of the same
company. His line of questioning of
the witness was intended to show that
shoe manufacturer who failed TO
pay his royalty on one kind of ma
chimes might find that the company
had cancelled his leases on other ma
chimes, the royalties on which had al
ready been paid.

THANKSGIVING BRIDE
OF BANGOR MISSING
TRAGEDY MAY RESULT.

Bangor Me-, Dec. 10.-The police
and county officials are endeavoring
to learn the whereabouts of Mrs. Per-
ley White, Thanksgiving bride, who
has been missing since last Thursday
A disappointed lover, said to have
made threats against the woman, is

Mrs. White was Annie Boyce, 20
years old, the daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. William Boyce of 10 Willow

married to Perley White a we'll to- do
young farmer of Levant.
They went to Levant after the we'd
ding and came to Bangor last Thurs
day White drew $192 from a bank
and gave it to his wife. On Saturday
morning last she left her fathers
house, saying that she was going
downtown to pay bill. She had the
S192 and some money of her own. That
was the last seen of her, and not the
slightest trace has been found. A
young man says he saw her on the
street, Saturday afternoon.

knows no reason why she should leave
her home and husband. She says a
