WOMAN PLEADED GUILTY
When Arraigned on Charge of Keeping a
Disorderly House.

| Those who gathered at city hall this
forenoon expecting to have their morning
portion of court doings favored with a
little tabaseo probably experienced GER
tain pangs of disappointment when they
saw a sober-countenanced little woman
stand up and tell story that didn't
need any supplementary explanations
from nine young women of Barre and
Montpelier who had been subpmnacd TO
testify in a disorderly house case. Mrs.
Mae Spear. lately charged with having
conducted an alleged resort on Third
street, demurcly pleaded guilty and ar
ranged to pay a fine of 500 and costs.
II was she sequel to raid made by
officers last week, when Mrs. Tranquila
Derniev who later was to pay Si00
fine and costs for selling liquor illegally,
submitted to search of her premises by
party of policemen. Mrs. Dernievic's
case was disposed of yesterday, and the
docketing of the Spear woman's hearing
for this morning was the signal for the
usual quota of court spectators TO lay
their plans for diverting forenoon. At
some length the respondent reasoned
with her attorney, +. L. Scott. before the
tdsc was oPtutu No-udy; anu hpou hti
refusal not to acknowledge the ofTense
she was left without counsel. Alone she
debated and entered into conference with
Grand Juror William Wishart before re.
versing her plea. In extenustion of her
plea, the respondent said that some OF
the nine women summoned had been oc-
casional visitors at her house, although
most of them came for sewing. On the
recommendation of the grand juror, the
court took judicial notice of the wom
ans position as the mother of six chill
dren, who, il was claimed, are not sup
ported by the father. and imposed
mild sentence.

understood he will make a brief speech
in each house though the chief object OF
his visit will be to pay call Of cour-
tesy, meet the members and to extend
the greetings of the British Parliament.
Mr. Balfour spent most of yesterday
afternoon with Secretary McAdoo and
Sir Hartman Lever at the treasury de-
partment, after devoting the morning
to conferences at the missions head
quarters.
The trade discussions between British
and American officials are said now to
have covered practically the preliminary
ground and to be waiting on additional
information from England.
The South American trade situation
has received almost no attention as yet.
The British mission will go to New
York in about 10 days to join the French
for the welcome meeting planned there.

THE WAR REVENUE BILL.
No Partisanship in the Debate on 1t in
Congress.

Washington, ID. C., May 3.--Persistent
upward revision of the tentative draft
of the war revenue bill by the House
ways and means committee yesterday
brought the total to be raised ND to
approximately 81 100000, or within
Sl65,o00,000 of the amount originally
suggested by Secretary McAdoo and re-
fused by a subcommittee.
Plans now are to raise the remaining
sl65O0O000 through consumption taxes,
If necessary, as last resort, by tariff
changes. Agreement has been reached to
discuss proposed tariff increases after all
other questions have been disposed of.
Partissnship has entirely disappeared
in the discussion and in some of the bit
terest arguments Democrats have been
srrayed against Democrats and Republi-
cans against Republicans.
One of the shsrpest clashes Of the
meeting yesterday was over the ques-
tion of continuing the policy OF secrecy
in framing the bill. Members pointed
out that the efforts of Democratic Lead.
er Kitehin and Others to keep the pro-
ceedings confidential had proved futile,
and that it would be to the public inter
est to court the fullest publicity. The
proposal was voted down promptly.

GERMAN GARRISON
TAKEN BY FRENCH
IN CHAMPAGNE
Position Which Projected Into French
Lines Was Reduced--Active Patrol
Fighting on Chemin des
Danes Line.

Paris, May 3.-The French made an
important gain on the Champagne front
last night, reducing position which was
still being held in the new lines east of
Mout Haut and capturing the German
garrison of more than 200 men. The war
Office announced to-day that there was
also active patrol fighting on the Chemin
des Danes line.
The official statement issued by the
war office last night was as follows:
The two artilleries were active par
ticularly in the regions northwest OF
Rheims and in Champagne in the sector
of Moronvilliers and Auberive. An iso-
lated operation gained ground for us in
the wood west OF Mont Carnillet.

reached their objectives and fire of
great violence broke out in the center of
the town.
"On April 80 and May l our pilots
brought down three German airplanes;
10 other machines were seriously dam

BADLY INJURED
IN BARRE QUARRY
George Smith Probably Sustained Frac
ture of the Skull and His Condi-
tion Is Reported to Be
Serious.

George Smith, a quarryman employed
at the medium quarry of Jones Bros. in
Websterville, is at the Barre City hos
pital with a probable fracture on the top
of the head and a possible fracture at the
base of the brain as the result of being
hit by the dog on a chain while working
in the quarry this forenoon. As the
quarry shut down soon after the acci-
dent, it was not possible to communicate
with the Office force there; but the story
of the accident, as related by others, has
it that stone was being lifted by der
rick when the chain slipped off the rock
and the dog swung with great force,
hitting Smith in the head.
DR.. N. +. Avery of East Barre was
called and the injured man was prompt
ly brought to the hospital in this city.
DIR. Avery stated this afternoon that it
would not be possible to forecast the
progress OF the case, although he admit
ted that the man was in serious condi-
tion.
The injured man has resided in the
quarry district for some years and is well
known there. He is about 30 years of
age and has a wife and one child.

BRAZIL, NORWAY, CHINA
MAY OPPOSE GERMANY

Brazil has drawn one step near
er war with Germany and to-day
is one of three countries that are
hovering on the brink of the mael.
strom which has eonyulsed two
thirds OF the world. Norway and
China are the other two countries
which may shortly be added to
the strengthening list of Ger
many's foes.
Two events happened in Brazil
which may form an impetus to
the last remaining step on the
road to war. Dr. Lauro Muller,
Brazilian foreign minister, has ten
dered his resignation on the eve of
the day set for the Brazilian Com
gress to decide whether the repub-
lie shall draw the sword; and
President Braz has ordered the de-
tention of the German minister on
receiving news from Berlin that
the Brazilian minister has been re-
fused permission to leave Ger
many.
The possibility of Norway's en-
trance into the war is based ON
the havoc wrought among the Nor
wegian merchant marine. All re-
ports from China agree that the
advocates of war are in the ma
jority at Pekin, although the
president apparently is still reluc-
tant to take the fateful step.

TALK OF THE TOWN

The auction sale yesterday at the
farm of Charles Machia, conducted by

satisfactory figures. Five cows sold for
$40. while five-week- old calves brought

S3l0 a bushel, with beans going up to

crawled to the outside of the barn,
where he had TO stop because of weak
ness, and men in the vicinity were. called
to help him to a nearby house, where a
doctor was summoned to examine the in

sible TO determine the exact number Of

HANG FOOD SPECTATORS.
Was Suggested by Senator in Debate on
Food Problem.

Washington, d. C., May 3.-The rising
sentiment in Congress for legislation to
meet the nations food problems broke
out in the Senate yesterday in a de-
bate that started over the high price OF
seeds, but developed into denunciations
OF food spectators with predictions that
the best way to deal with them was to
string them TO lamp posts or put them
behind prison bars.
Senators from farming states denied
that there is any real shortage of sta
pie foods in the United States Senator
John Sharp Williams declared there had
been a hysteris throughout the country
and that the cause of high prices was
largely psychological. He said he be-
lieved the German corruption fund re-
Gently unearthed in a federal court in
New York may have been responsible for
the hysteris.
Word should go straight out from the
Senate. Senator Williams said, that there
is no shortage Of food Senators Mel
son and McCumber agreed that there
is no reason to fear a shortage.

STANDARD SHIP PLAN ADOPTED.
u. S. Government Adopts 1t to Guide
Private Shipyards.

Washington, D. c., May 3.-To allay
uncertainty among shipbuildens who ex-
pect to take contracts for vessels of the
great wooden ship feet, the shipping
board announced late yesterday that
specifications for standard ship would
be ready in the very near future.
The standard ship. the announcement
said, will be about $50 feet over all, with
a 24-foot depth OF hold and with two
full decks, and will be capable of devel-
oping about 500 horsepower. Some de-
tails remain to be worked out, however,
including the question OF bulkheads for
protection from submarines. Officials
said preparation of the specifications
probably would be completed within a
few days, possibly by tomorrow.
"The board will submit its plans and
specifications as soon as possible" read
the formal announcement. Bidders may
propose to furnish completed ships or
hulls only. Any firm desiring to submit
proposals to build completed ships from
their own plans may do SO, but such
plans will have TO be approved by the
boards engineers and all are urged to
wait until the standard plans are ready"
Scores OF shlpbuilders have assured the
board that they will take contracts up to
the limit of their capacity, and in the
last few days many OF them have sent
inquiries as to how soon specifications
would be submitted and bids accepted.
1t is understood that some of the delay
has been due to revisions made at the
suggestion OF the visiting war missions,
particularly in regard TO means of pro-
tecting the vessels from submarines.
To permit builders TO make tentative
plans, it was announced that the stand
ard dimensions would be about as fol-
lows:
Length between perpendiculars 26o
feet, over all $50 feet Extreme beam
46 feet. Moulded depth 26 feet. Depth
of hold "a feet. Two full decks, fore
castle, midship bridgehouse and poop and
house on bridge for officers. Power
steam, l,50O horsepower. Single of twin
screws"
