l had suffered by the fall in it's stock. l This drew from MT. Nicoll the retort | that the government might be respon- sible flor the losses of these widows and orphans''-a remark which some took as indicating that the defense, in presenting it's case, would lay the demoralization of New Haven securi ties during the last year or two to the various government inquiries and prosecutions.
 MT. Bennett, who is a biscuit man. ufacturer, said he had sent biscuit to Texas (the home of Special Prosecu- tor Batts).
 What kind of biscuit did you send to Texas?" asked MT. Nicoll.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
 ADVOCATES PARADE
Boston and Pittsburgh Hold Big
 Demonstrations

Boston, Oct. 16.-Advocates of the woman suffrage amendment to be voted on by the people of Massachu- setts in November were astir early today with final preparations for a spectacular victory parade this af- ternoon in which 10000 marchers, ac- cording to leaders, were to be in line. Thirty bands were engaged for the event, and facing Boston Common there had been erected a reviewing stand to be occupied by Miss Alice Stone Blackwell, president of the assachusetts Suffrage association, and others prominently identified with the cause.
 The program, preceding a monster mass meeting, included a review at the State House by Governor Walsh and the presentation by Miss Helen Keller to the governor of a letter written by Miss Keller commenting him for his stand on suffrage. Mayor Curley also had arranged to review the parade as it passed the City hall.
 Counter Demonstration.
 A counter demonstration was planned by leaders of the anti-suffrage movement. Along the line of march scores of houses had been decorated in red, the anti-suffrage colors, while red roses worn by crowds in the street were supposed to indicate their opposition to votes for women. All anti -suffragists of pronounced views were urged by the organizations with which they are affiliated to stand in silence along the streets through which the parade moved, with their red colors flung to the breeze.
 Strict orders had been issued, how ever, that the suffragist paraders were not to be annoyed, the red Silent plan of the antis being regarded by them as the more effective demon Stration.

New York, Oct. 16.-The selection of a jury to try William Rockefeller Lewis Cass Ledyard, Edward D. Rob- bins and eight other directors, past and present of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad on the charge of conspiring to monopolize the transportation traffic of New England, was completed yesterday. The twelve acceptable men represent ed the painstaking sitting of nearly 250 talesmen by lawyers for both sides during the three days that the trial has already been in progress.
 Adjourned Till Monday.
 The case was adjourned until Mon- day, after Judge Hunt, in announcing that the jurors would not be kept in the custody of the court, delivered what was considered by many as an unusually solemn warning upon "the importance of circumspection'' in their conduct He told them they were "to allow no one to approach them on any phase of this case" emphasizing at the same time the importance of the matters under consideration.
 Upon reassem bling Monday, the jurors will hear the opening address of R. L. Bates of counsel for the gov ernment, who expects to take at least a day and half to outline the huge mass of evidence to be presented in proof of the alleged conspiracy.
 Seven Jurors Eliminated.
 It was not until yesterdays session had been prolonged for two hours and both sides had exhausted all their challenges, which Judge Hunt reduced to nine each, that the last juror was in the box. The days work repre- scented the elimination of seven of the tentative jury selected Thursday and nine more tentatively accepted during the day, not to mention a score who disqualified themselves.
 Strong opinions as to the enforce ment of the Sherman antitrust law, under which the directors were in dicted, proved an obstacle to the se- lection of nearly a dozen jurors who otherwise seemed acceptable. Sev- eral said their objections to the law were so fixed that they did not be- lieve that they could render a fair and impartial verdict. Others who held similar opinions said that they thought they could render fair yer dict nevertheless, but in each case they were challenged by the govern ment.
 Rule of Reason.
 One of the latter was Harvey E. Fisk, a younger member of the New York banking firm of Harvey Fisk & Co.,, who said he had made @ study of the law and thought the rule of reason" should be applied. He said the evidence would have to show him conclusively that the New Haven" was an unlawful combination.
 Delancey Nicoll, of counsel for the defendants, inquired of each talesman whether he had prejudice against combination.
 "The government" he said to one talesman, alleges that the New Haven is an unlawful combination and was harmful to New England. We are going to show you that it was a lawful combination and beneficial to New England"
 Outline of Defense.
 One talesman was found, Frederick H. Bennett, native of Massachusetts, who said he had prejudice against the New Haven directors because his relatives, as stockholders of the road,
