ARE LASSOED BY
HEALTH OFFICIALS
Tenth Ward Animals lmpound-
ed After Wild West Chase
in Back Lots.

Wild West tactics were utilized to-
day by the Board of Health in a
raid upon the stray goats of streets
in the Tenth ward section near the
East Side Park.
Thirteen goats in all were lassooed
by the army of city cowboys.
Two Board of Health inspectors,
two mounted policemen from the
Third Precinct, Henry Forbel, the
city poundmaster and fourteen boys
took part in the roundup.
1t was a strenuous time for men
and goats alike The animals were
chased. in and around vacant lots,
corralled in back yards and lassooed
on the open street. Each and every
one of them put up big fight.
The raiders caught the goats in
Van Buren,, Tyler, Chestnut, Adams
and Delaney streets and the lower
end of Malvern street. The animals
were taken to the city pound in Plum
Point lane.

Welded ADMIRAL
TO SAVE HIS LIFE,
SAYS MRS. EATON

PLYMOUTH. Mass, Oct. 21.-Mrs.
Jennie May Eaton resumed the stand
for ss-examination today in her
trial for the murder of her husband,
Rear Admiral Eaton.
AS the principal witness in her own
defense. Mrs. Eaton was on the stand
for six hours last Saturday, and
under the guidance of her attorney,
William Morse, told a story of tender
care for her husband and consistent
devotion to him
She uenied that she had given him
poison. and testified that his frequent
dabbling with subtle drugs and per-
sistent uor-drinking had taxed her
patience and made her fear for her
life.
Today District Attorney Barker led
her over this story, dissecting it in
an effort to find some flaw which
would strengthen the government g
contention that she gave the admiral
a beverage containing deadly
poison.
At the suggestion of the district at
torney Medical Examiner Gilman T.
Osgood, of Rockland. sat at table
in plain view of the defendant. DR..
Osgood, who has devoted much time
TO a study of insanity, jotted down
notes of his observations of the wit
ness.
Attorney Morse asked Mrs. Eaton
a single question before District At
torney Barker began his cross exam
nation.
did you know that your husbands s
income stopped with his death?"
queried Mr.. Morse.
II did, Mrs Eaton replied.
The admiral was very Incorporate.
she said, but under her care he drank
considerably less and finally asked
her to become his wife.
''It was only when l saw that he
was going to kill himself that / de-
cided to marry him. she said.
"Then you married him to save his
iife?" asked Mr.. Barker.
Eyes, l married him TO save his
life" replied Mrs Eaton.

Official Washington Sees
Justification for Wilson
Stand in Election Farce

WASHINGTON. Oct s7.-On the
face of the meagre returns from the
Mexican elections and apparent in
dications that a President had not
been chosen. officials in Washington
today based Justification for the
policy of this government in declining
in advance to recognize the elections
as legal and fair
Although nothing official had come
to the authorities here, the prevailing
opinion was that Huerta would re-
tain his authority and that a new
Congress would proclaim the election
null and void. Definite announcement
from the Huerta government of the
election outcome is not looked for
here for several days.
A few dispatches were received by
Secretary Bryan from Mexico City
They contained no detailed informs
ton as to the votes cast for Presi-
dent, but all asserted that the vote
everywhere throughout the republic
had been light. The reports were
communicated to President Wilson at

4PRU' MINORITY TO
SEEK WRIT TO HALT
STOCK APPRAISAL
Minority Stockholders Plan
New Move in Fight Against
naturalization.

Counsel for the minority stock
holders of the Prudential insurance
Company is preparing an application
for a writ of certiorari to review the
order Of Chancellor Walker appoint
ing commissioners to appraise the
Prudential stock The purpose of
this appraisal is to facilitate the
plan of mutualizing the company.
which minority stockholders object
to.
After the Legislature had passed
the bill which gave the officers and
directors of the Prudential the
power to change the concern into a
mutual company, Chancellor Walker
named three commissioners TO ap-
praise the stock. The appra :sers ap-
pointed are former United states
Senator James Smith. ir.. former
Governor John Franklin Fort and
former Postmaster-Gen William
NJ. johnson.
An appeal to stay the appraisal was
taken to the Court of Errors and
Appeals by the minority stockholders
Last Friday. Justice Garrison handed
down decision in which he dis
missed the appeal and pointed out
that an application for a writ of
certiorari to the Supreme Court
would be the ordinary course for the
stockholders to pursue.
Robert H. McCarter, of counsel for
the minority stockholders, today de-
clared that the application for the
writ of certiorari would be made be-
fore Chief Justice William S. Cum
mere during the present week.
Il will confer with John r. Hardin,
also counsel for the stockholders, dur
ing the week." said Mr.. McCarter.
THE decision Of Justice Garrison last
week leaves no doubt that our appli-
cation to review the order by which
the appraisers were appointed, will
be granted.
Edward D. Dufleld. counsel for the
Prudential Insurance Company, TO-
day announced that il the stockhold-
ers' counsel applied for a writ OF
eertiorari the company would oppose
the movement.
I'VE are anxious To have this mu-
tualization plan to proceed as quick
ly as possible" said Mr. Duffield, 'and
we will oppose any action like this
which would hold up the appraisal.
The next meeting of the appraisers
appointed by the chancellor Is sched-
uled to be held next "Wednesday morn
ing. Mr.. Duff1eld announced that II
was not likely that the appraisers
would take any action at this meet
ing but would await the outcome OF
the application for writ sf certio-
! rari
