JUDGMENT IS REVERSED.
Appellate Court Sets Aside Award
for Loss Of Dictaphones.

The District Court of Appeals. in an
opinion by Chief Justice Shepard. today
reversed the judgment of the District
Supreme Court. which had declared l..
F. Randolph & Co. responsible for GER
tain dictaphones leased from the CO.
Iumbia Graphophone Company. and
which were destroyed in a fre at Ran
dolph's offices in November, 1914. The
lower court had awarded a summary
Judgment for s9S0.30.
The appellate tribunal holds that the
plaintiff. was not entitled to a summary
Judgment and the facts should have been
submitted to jury. The Judgment is
reversed and a trial directed unless the
Graphophone Company is content to ac-
cept the amount Of rent installments a6-
mitted 10 be due by the affidavit of de-
tense. II so. ii may have judgment fer
that amount.
The chief justice declares that the
agreement was lease and not a con-
ditional sale, and as the defendant was
only liable for ordinary care and the
fire was admittedly accidental and wholly
without fault OF the defendant. the loss
falls on the owner of tho machines.

Powers of Cabinet.

In reply to a question regarding the
respective powers of the president and
the new cabinet, the premier said:
China now has a responsible cabi-
net and premier. Full power lies in
their hands, not in those of the presi-
dent. The cabinet will move outside
the palace grounds. and only matters
of the greatest Importance will be re-
ferred to the president for discussion.
THE military hereafter will be under
the minister of war. 1t has been found
that it was not good for the country
to have the army solely under the
of war. the president will act upon the
advice of the cabinet. The state coun-
Gil has been dissolved. and the cabinet
will direct a parliamentary election to
be held within three months. The new

WEATHER DEALS BLOW
TO THE EASTER F|NERY
Street Costumes Exhibit Bewildering
Combination of Spring Garb
and Winter Furs.

There may be some connection be-
tween the fact that the International
dressmakers' union of the entire world
has picked out blue for, the prevailing 6
color this spring and the apparent ef-
fort of the weather folks yesterday to
combine a short series of winter winds
and thus make Easter. 1915. the bluest
outdoor festival that any girl with a
four-ounce silk taffeta suit could wish.
There is plenty of unused spring
weather on tap somewhere, but only
a meager sample of it was unwrapped
here yesterday. and the result was an
Easter parade that seemed to be COM
bination of a spring opening and a
summer fur sale. There were seven
teen thousand four hundred and ninety
eight fur coats-more or less-counted
on Connecticut avenue and neighbor-
ing streets yesterday.
Make Cruel Comment.
Some of the mean fellows who went
to give the new styles the once over
were mean enough to surmise that
those who wore the fur coats were
those who hadn't quite made up their
minds what to get this month. On
the other hand. some of those who ap-
looked perfectly disgusted after they
came in contact with three or four
good slaps of wind.
Sweet peas seemed to be the pre-
vailing flower and many young
woman barricaded herself from the
stormy Easter winds behind a COM
bination chest protector of these flow
ers. aided and abetted by fur of vari-
Gus sorts. Also, an unusually large
number of feminines took a chance
a ri ic
blasts in what the advertisements call
ne-piece coat dresses. wearing only a
fur boa about the neck for protection
against the near-sleet.
Great Variety of Hats.
AS for hats it takes more than a man
reporter to get a line on the headgear
which burst from the clothes closets
| and hat boxes in time to make Easter
! colorful Some were big and some were
little. that's as far as one can 20 or
| shape. Some were purple and some
were not. Also many young womer
were observed who were utterly hidden
behind the hat brim.
The male Easter parader was a scarce
bird yesterday, although a few regu.
| lars were seen attfred in highly polish
ed two-gallon top hats. Most Of these
| chappies endeaVored to appear utterly
| oblivious of the fact that it might rair
buckets Of water at any moment.
Anticipated Sport on View.
| Probably the finest sight in all Wash.
| ington yesterday was an antiquatet
sport who paraded Connecticut avenu,
| with his top hat laid back like thu
| masts Of clipper ship. He wore &
| terrific red necktie, something like tha

breeches. He had every evidence o

Indorsing Project for Honoring
Former Worker for Humanity.

Effort to have a memorial to Clara
Barton placed in the Red Cross build
ing provoked the most spontaneous
demonstration of the entire D. A. r.

forth that Miss Barton was a charter
member of the G. A. r., an officer of
&he first two national boards and hon.
orary vice president general; that she
performed great services during the
civil war and afterward in national
disasters, and therefore a memorial
in recognition Of her patriotic services
should be placed in this building now
being erected in honor of the heroic
women of the civil war. The recon-
menda tion as adopted by the congress
was that the President of the United
States should be asked to suggest to
the commission erecting the building
that a suitable memorial to Miss Bar
ton, the founder of the American Red
Cross. should be placed therein.
The resolution was signed by per-
sonal friends of Miss Barton and Off
GERS of the D. A. r. from the states
where her humanitarian work was
done.
