the sap in the trees from rising and

ice may be had from the report Of the
Western Electric company at Haw-

TEN. This report shows that for one
month alone the emergency ship

included 150 cars Of poles, 5000
miles of wire, $4,000 cross-arms, so
miles Of cable, so miles Of strand,
100000 insulators and 100000
pounds Of hardware, tools, tape, etc.
While the heaviest expense occurs, of
course, during the winter months, the
work and necessity of repair is con
tinuous and the wear and tear on the
equipment requires the telephone peo-
pie to reconstruct and repair during

closed with the noon session. and at

ed his charge.
As usual, the courtroom was
crowded TO its capacity, aud deputy
sheriffs were constantly pushing
back spectators. Many women were
present Monday morning, and fol-
lowed with interest the speeches of
counsel.
Assistant Attorney General Biek-
ers for the prosecution with a gen.
eral outline of the states theory
that the killing of lnman had been
done deliberately by the defendant.
Fred s. Toombs, opened for the de-
fense in a speech wherein he outlin-
ed the idea Of the defense that In.
nan had atten. pied TO kill the wo.
man, and in the struggle the pistol
had gone of accidentally.
X. III. Prescott followed IN a pow
eriul speech for the defense, where
IN he portrayed her as an orphan
left upon the tender world at the
age Of siI, who had struggled and
then fallen, bnt who possessed the
instincts OF a woman Of conscience,
despite the life she led. lie excor-
lated Inman, declaring" Whatever
the character Of Francis Wilson,
this man Inman took her into his
own home" Inman, he declared,
was a man who gave up his life to
association with lewd women, aud
was untrue to every promise ever
made to his wife. The saddest
thing in the record, be said, was the
letter from his aged mother, where
in she pleaded with him to give up
his evil associations, and prophet.
really foretold that he would meet
with violent end.
Judge Prescott insisted that all
the proof showed that lnman had
either determined to kill the woman
and himself, or intended to merely
"bluff' her but in either case the
struggle over the pistol ensued, and
his own death followed. He poked
fun at the testimony Of Attorney.
General Estes, and declared that il
only strengthened the defense.
Gen. Bickers closed for the state
in a speech which held the audience
closely, dramatically followed each
step leading up to TO the tragedy.
He insisted this sis another case
where person is trying to ride TO
liberty on the broken character of
a dead man; another case where the
defendant seeks her liberty upon
that accursed doctrine that a woman
shall not be punished for her
crimes"
He told the jury that the woman
was an adventures, not an orphan,
but with her mother living, and
such was her character that she re-
fused to live with her mother, but
took up her abode IN an immoral
resort. lie insisted the woman
was pursuing Iuman, that she was
determined not to let hun go back
to his wife and that while hs lay
asleep IN his bed she slipped up and
shot him.. lie called upon the jury
to forget sverything but the facts
proven, and TO bring in verdict
of guilty.

Officers of the company say it

For the last year they said the

The officers they said have put
up more than $50, 900 in addition
to the receipts in an effort TO
tide over the emergency, but this
has been insufficient. Collec-

WASHINGTON, Dec. l.-..Heayily

Gently issued by the National Geo

to the highlands Of Montenegro, In a
northeast-southwest valley enclosed
by mountain walls. It Is this path
that the Serbinas have so stoutly5 de-
Tended in, order to keep open their
communications with their allies OF
the mountain kingdom.
"Novibazar lies thirty miles north
east Of Mitrovitza, the northern ter
minal Of the railroad from the Greek
port, Saloniki. The best way from
the railroad terminal to Novibazar
runs down the valley Of the Moraya
to Rashka, thirty miles north, where
IT follows up the course Of. a small

valley road through Novibazar, that
the Serbians and Montenegrins led

DYES and the Tarifl,.

ID = - < y
No single economic result OF the
war In Europe has more engaged pub
lie attention in this country than the
shortage of dye-stuffs. Around this
subject public controversy has ragged
concerning the best methods OF build
ing up dye industry in the United
States. It has frequently been con-
tended that the difficulty was tech
meal, and that the reason for the pres
ent dye situation was a lack Of chem-
ical skill in this country which could
produce dye equal to the best Euro
pean products. Government experts,
attached to the department Of COM
merce, have been busy developing
wonderful chemical combinations,
which, to use the language of a large
dye. manufacturer, have been known
to color sheets Of paper dipped there
in, says American Industries.
1t lisa peculiar fact that most Of the
experts who have been supplying daily
interviews to the press are men, VINO
prior to the war, had no experience
with the dye-stuff industry. 1t is these
men who seem to see technical diff
culties in the way Of establishing and
maintaining q large chemical industry
in this country. Men who have had
long experience in the industry attrib-
ute the present color situation in the
United States; to combination OF
economic circumstances which have
operated in the past and are now oper-
ating to restrict the development Of
color manufacturing in this country.
PROFESSIONALLY the problem is an
economic rather than chemical one.
for contrary to popular Impression
there already exists large chem
ical manufacturing industry which
fourishes where economic circum-
stances are suspicious despite tech
meal difficulties.
The chief obstacle encountered by
dye manufacturers in this country is
an unfavorable and uncertain tariff
policy. There is no dearth Of technical
skill nor ability to produce dyes in the
United States, but there is much UNI
willingness to invest large capital in
the necessary equipment to promote
an enterprise SO very uncertain IN It's
outcome.
Wltnout adequate tarin prote ction 1t
will be impossible to establish dye
industry in this country and nourish
1t to such an estate that it will be able
successfully to compete with the lead
ing European producers. Without a
continuing tariff policy manufacturers
will not be justified in investing cap
ital in. the new business, since at any
time support may be Withdrawn and
the industry left to its fate. 1t is, in
fact, this latter phase Of the question
which occasions manufacturers the
greatest worry. An unfavorable tariff
policy which is certain is better than
a favorable one which may sbe changed
at any moment.
No amount Of agitation on the part
of representatives of the department
of commerce can change these facts.
