It COSTS S675 PER HOUR
FOR NEW HAVEN DIRECTORS
TO AWAIT VERDICT Of JURY

at the conclusion occupied more time
! listening to a repetition of Justice
Hunts instructions. Estimates Of the
daily attendance fees varied, but they
were believed to average about $500
for each of the eleven defendants on
trial George Mccullough Miller, 80,
also indicted, did not go to trial,
though he is charged with the others
with conspiracy to violate the Sherman
antitrust law.
r. Y. Lindabury, counsel for William
Rockefeller, was said to be receiving
$4,000 to $1,000 a day for attending
court in addition to his retainer. He
has been in court sixty-three days.
Other counsel costs were large in pro-
portion to the wealth Of the various
defendants.
BY failing to deliver a verdict Fri
day night, the jurors were believed to
have put the defendants to an expense
of approximately $500 and should
they wait until Monday to report, an
other $500 will have been added to
the aggregate expense of the trial to
the defendants.
Not only is the Jurors deliberate
ness costing a huge sum for every
hour of counsel's time, but the time
spent in court by each defendant was
estimated at a huge sum.
The wealth of the eleven men on
trial Is estimated at sS00,00o,000, the
greatest in any trial in American
criminal history. Stenographers' fees
alone were $4,000 for transcribing
more than 1000, 900 words of evidence.
Though a verdict was hoped for to-
night. preparations were made for
holding Sunday court and should the
Jurors fail to agree by 1850 tonight.
they will be locked up and given a
chance to deliver a decision tomorrow.

ALL PROMISE TO OBEY

| UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
| WASHINGTON, Jan S.-Before the
European war began. there was no
international law on submarine war
fare. By virtue of United States de-
mands finally granted by two great
nations and supported by the allies
through interchange Of state papers
the last made public today-the Unit
ed States has been responsible for
the following international code:
No merchant ships of whatever ma
tionality shall be torpedoed without
warning.
Passengers and crew Of all ships
halted shall be secured in "a place
Of safety" before vessels are sunk.
Refuge of passengers and crew tn
small boats does not constitute q
place Of safety" unless land is near
and the sea is calm.
Ships which attempt escape by
flight. resist capture or attack the
submarine, forfeit protection of inter-
national law for the vessel and all
those aboard. including neutrals.
Submarine commanders may be
Justified in torpedoing II suspicious
and apparent hostile maneuvers of q
vessel justify belief in its hostile In
tentfOns. Il b
Il after u vessef- halts, even through,
having originally attempted flight,
submarines cannot continue lombard
ment or torpedo until all aboard are
secured"
Neutral ships carrying absolute con.
traband may be sunk (without NOR
tality). An unsettled point Is the
number and calibre of guns a mer-
chant vessel may carry and still avoid
classification as an armed ship.
Nearly All Settled.
WASHINGTON. Jan. S.-The Unit
ed States is virtually ready to cen
ter its attention on English-American
relations as affected by incidents
which have arisen during the war.
The formal protest against British
seizures of mail to and from the Unit
ed States, forwarded to the London
government, was said tonight to be
only the first step Of the state de-
partment toward complete under
standing with England on the various
differences between the two coun-
tries. These include ship seizures,
the contraband situation and refusal
to permit cotton to go to Germany.
Americas difficulties With the CEN
trail powers we're regarded in official
circles tonight as being so near COM
plete adjustment as to make them
secondary in importance to British
American relations. The feeling that
England's time for an accounting"
has now come, was widespread.
In the Frye note. Germany con-
cedes practically every demand made
by the United States. Upon its being
made public today, diplomatic officials
commented upon the significance in
the similarity of it's concessions to
those made by the Austrian govern
ment in the Ancona note regarding
warning before torpedoing and secur-
ity that should be accorded passen-
gers before sinking ship.
Comparison also was drawn be-
tween the Frye notes and the volun-
tary German statement made in writ
ing to Secretary Lansing by German
Ambassador Bernstorf yesterday. in

We are still to dance, finding in rhythmic
movement to the sounds of music avenues for
expression otherwise damned. 1t is the primi-
tive instinct we told, and the asseveration Is
upheld by citations Of human experience going
back as far as records and illustrations can be
traced. Does man feel citation or depression,
yield to the exatation Of religion, or yearn to
take dire toll Of an enemy? In the dance he ex-
'hibits the impulse that fills his aosom and
through 'gyrations, senufections leaps and fops,
he relieves his pent-up feelings and mpresses be-
holders with his sincerity and devotion. Joy and
sorrow, war and peace, love and hatred, adora-
ton and worship, all are made manifest by figures
or movements. Then the dance has its literature,
too, and poetry and music contribute to it from
their plcnitude
But modern man has found other means Of
venting his inspirations, his moods and ideas, and
resorts to the dance mainly as source OF social
diversion. Interpretive dancing he leaves to ex-
perts who mildly pique him as they move with
flashing limbs and graceful gestures through
forms that may mean what the program says, but
which usually impress the beholder with the
thought that dressmakers didn't thrive who de-
pended on the nymphs for patronage. Otherwise
dancing is INDUCED chiefly as substitute for
conversation.
Some comfort for the elderly and equal con-
fusion for the young is found in the dictum of
the masters that the violent forms Of recent date
are to be discarded for the season now at hand
The waltz of old is coming back, and the three
four time Of days gone by again will be heard
where the ear is now outraged by the syncopated
denominations to the "ragtime" Of which swings
dips, whirls and other gymnastics Of the mod
ern" dance are performed. Johan Strauss will
reign again where Irving Berlin last year held
sway. On with the dance!

Amending the Ten Commandments.

Among propositions announced for consid-
Grafton at the forthcoming convention Of the
Protestant Episcopal church Of the United States
is one to amend the Ten Commandments Now,
don't get excited. 1t is not proposed to enact
further Legislation along the line to embody any
Of the aphorisms colloqually referred to as being
extra sections Of the Decaiogue The idea Is to
shorten the commandments as they appear in the
prayer book or catechsm, retaining only the order
and emitting the argument. A commission which
has considered the matter will report that the
reasons for observance now embodied in the text
are no part Of the divine command, and, therefore,
may well be eliminated in the interest OF brevity.
Following this to its logical end and applying
the result, we may relieve the Bible OF great
deal Of its bulk. Historical chapters Of great in
terest, poems Of sublime majesty, thousands Of
words Of biography and many passages OF con-
troversy and considerable expanse Of genealogy
may be cut out, because Of containing no state
ment or essence Of divine command. Such a
process would destroy the fascination OF the
Book Of Books for the student, who now finds
in its passages a never-failing charm, and for the
devout it would be calamity. Asa basis Of
faith and source Of inspiration, the Bible, in
its present form, stands unexampled, and to add
to or detract therefrom may interest the esoterc
critics, but for the millions whose faith and hope
alike rest on its passages such an effort would
be sacrilcge

Social Justice.

What is social justice' The term has been ban
died about for many years now and volumes have
been spoken and written concerning its meaning,
with the effect Of confusing many and enlighten-
ing but few. None who deeply studies conditions
will undertake to support the proposition that
social justice prevails now, or ever did prevail.
Some man has always been at disadvantage, and
not through his own fault. Conditions justify the
assertion, though, that we are nearer today to
realization of the square deal for all. This does
not mean that any one of many utopan dreams
has come to pass nor that an ideal has been at
tanned. II means that forces have so reacted upon
conditions that men vaguely feel if they do not
realize fully something of the obligation resting
upon them to consider the other fellow. 1t does
not mean that the unrest is being stilled. The
man who is comfortable is inclined to agree with
conditions that contribute to his situation, but TN
der him and around him are others who are not
comfortable, and whose consequent dissatisfaction
is certain to disturb him. Thus is the continue
tion of the turmoil made sure, to the end that
with each readjustment Of social relations we are
coming a little closer to the time when the world
will be good place for all to live in. Through
this unrest the race Of man has come up from
darkness toward the light, and by it will be led
on to the time when social justice will be fact
and not hope. In sorrow and bitterness man
learns his lesson, but beyond the strife always
CLOVIS the light Of that day ahead when AL mems
good is each mans aim" Then will humanity
know the full meaning Of social justice.
