JAIL FOR
 WAGE CUTS
Senator Williams Warns Man.
 ufacturers of Danger
TO INVOKE THE SHERMAN ACT
Prosecution for Criminal Conspiracy Under the Sherman Law to Fol low curtailment of Production
 if Present Plans Carry.

Washington.-John Sharp Williams, a member of the Senate Finance Com mittee. caused a stir by the statement that manufacturers and other produc- CTS who may find it necessary to re- duce wages, diminish their working forces or curtail production when the new tariff goes into effect will incur not only the risk of being investigated by Secretary Redfeld's department, but may be prosecuted criminally by the Department of Justice.
 Not all of Senator Williams's Demo cratic colleagues share his views. The Senator believes that the sherman law may be extended to cover cases where employers decide 10 eurtail business for the influencing of senti- ment to bring about repeal of the tariff act He says it all depends on whether or not the evidence shows a conspiracy among the employers to bring about restraint of trade.
 Senator Williams was moved to make this statement because of al leged threats to close factories, dis charge employees and take other &C., ton to show resentment against the new tariff bill. The Senator has no doubt that the legal machinery can be used to shield Congress from coer- cion.
 The Sherman antitrust law gives ample authority" he said, flor the prosecution of any men who shall en- ter into any agreement or understand ing to cut wages or reduce output to restrain freedom of competition in trade.
 "The injunction has been used fre- quently against trade unions to pre- vent them from engaging in sympa- thetic strikes or secondary boycotts. It may well be within the legal limits to prevent the closing of industrial plants with the definite object of CO., ercing Congress.
 T understand that the President and Secretary Redfeld intend to have the Bureau of Corporations inquire into the conditions which influence busi- ness to reduce wages because of the new tariff bill. It may develop from this inquiry that an agreement or con spiracy existed for concerted action in closing industrial plants which would lead to criminal prosecutions"
 Senator Williams strongly objects to the proposal for public hearings on the tariff bill. He said that if hear ings were granted the Senate would months"
 The Senator concluded with the prophecy that the free wool and the sugar schedules would not be amend ed by the Senate.

GASOLINE IS RENDERED SAFE
Methods Employed by French Govern inert Makes Accidents impossible
 Rules Are Severe.

Places where infiammable liquids are stored are classed by the French gov ernment with establishments which much conform to the most severe rules. In order to satisfy conditions imposed by the prefecture of the po- lice & new apparatus invented by Martini and H1neke was adopted. This apparatus includes no compli- cated mechanism. IL is automatic In its operation and independent of the workmen.
 Throughout the apparatus in which the fuel is stored or handled air Is replaced by carbonic acid gas. says the Engineering Magazine. This gas not only serves as protecting agent but its pressure determines the move ment of the liquid Furthermore, the gas fills all the pipes and valves and acts in such way that liquid can circulate only when the system is absolutely free of leaks. For instance, If leak occurs at any point in the system the pressure of the gas will disappear and the liquid will remain HI euS ISsSTNoiT, WhStt lheie iS ho ue'h ger of explosion, since air is necessary to the formation O. an explosive mix ture In fact. all danger which comes from external fire or even from sparks within the tank is removed.
 The principle of operation of the Martini and Huneke apparatus as in stalled in the garages of the Com pagnie des Omnibus de Paris consists of a storage reservoir or heavy sheet metal completely buried In the ground, ar inlet panel and an outlet panel, cylinder of compressed inert gas. and jacketed pipes joining the diff ferent parts of the system. A reser- voir covered with asphalt is buried in the ground sufficiently to escape all danger of fire. To charge the tank with liquid fuel it is first filled with the inert gas. then connected to the fuel tank by two pipes. one siphons the liquid and the other permits gas from the reservoir to replace it as it runs out. By means of this system the small quantity of liquid which is left on the wall of the tank cannot form an explosive mixture as it never comes into contact with the air.

KILLED HUNTING EGGS ON CLIFF
William crispin Had Climbed to Nest
 of Rock Hawks.

Easton, Pa-Dr Cora B. Roberts and Miss Florence Simmer of Riegels- vile found the body of William Cris- pin, scientist of Salem, N. J. at the foot of cliffs that rise TOO feet above the Delaware River near Narrows- vile.
