"You can't" cried Chatterer in triumph.
You promised not to tell Shadow II I

What woman. given her choice between
,, an automobile and garden, would choose
the garden. Not one, in this day of wom-
ans unrest, unless she was either born to
unworldliness or had achieved it! Yet
that is what Mrs. A. Mitchell Palmer,
wife of Representative Palmer Of Penn
sylvania, did. She chose the garden.
Just to let this tale point a moral, and to
prove that virtue is not always its only
reward, it may be mentioned in passing
that she got the automobile later.

A few years ago my husband offered me

tinued his testimony before the inter-
state commerce commission today, say
ing he took the word OF the accounting
department of the road when he ap-
proved the report that the New Haven
had marketable securities worth $10,-
100000 when they really were of little
value. He thought interlocking direc-

He said j. p. Morgan did not show a
desire to dominate or dictate. Lewis
Cass later was called. but not sworn.
He said he desired to contradict GER
tain statements made by Melien.
Skinner testified that he thought a
railroad or other public corporation
has right to create public sentiment
in its favor even IL the railroad makes
the public believe certain statements
come from the people when they really
come from the railroad. Referring to
the directors approval of the state
ment which later proved false Skinner
said: Il cannot speak of other direc-
tors, but SO far as I am concerned l
took the word of the accounting de-
partment"

Blockade Is Threatened.

Washington, June 4.-Report of an
attempted blockade of Tampico by
Huerta gunboats took the position of
chief interest in Mexico affairs here
today and administration officials de-
clined to indicate their policy, although
they informed Rear Admirals Badger
and Mayo of the situation. The steam
er Antilla, flying the Cuban flag, is now
enroute to Tampico with arms for Car
rama and it is reported Huerta gum
boats will interfere with the Antilla.
Immediately after Tamplco fell into the
constitutionalists' hands the United
States declared Tampieo an open port
and this was interpreted as a clear in
timation that no blockade would be
recognized.
