HUSBAND TOLD WIFE
 SHE WAS HIS SIXTH
Mrs. Dorman Asks for Support and Court Rules It

Claiming that his wife does not treat him as a husband, refuses to clean his room, forces him to drink
 burnt soup" and has chased him
 from the house at least dozen
 times, Harry Dorman, aged 54, d
 barber, told Judge John H. Kirk
 nam this morning that she did not
 merit support. He is willing how
 ever, to pay for her keeping if she
 Will live with him and give up her
 practice of midwifery and the judge
 ordered that he furnish a bond of
 5000 to pay his wife $S a week for
 period of six months. Judge Will
 nam +. Mangan was counsel for the focused.
 Claims Wife Earns Money Probation Officer F. C: Connolly told or his trips to Dorman's barber
 shop on Hartford avenue, and of
 how he refused time and again to give toward his Wifes support in
 spite of his promise made on Sep
 tember 9 that he would give $S weekly. The promise was made in the office of Prosecutor KIett after he had been notified that he was to
 be summoned to court. Since Oct.
 he has not given toward her sup port, she claims, and as his reason he gives the statement that his son Is sick and in need of support He also claims that she earns too much money as a midwife and has a large bank account, so he can not see why he, with a much smaller income, should be compelled to add to her account. MT. Connolly in response to a question asked by the prosecu- tor, said the entire house with the exception of the room occupied by the husband is kept in good condi- tion.
 ''Didn't Count Wives" When Mrs. Dorman was put on the stand the attorney for the State asked if she was the first wife of the accused and she replied that she had been informed by him that she was his sixth. She added that she had never counted the wives. Asked if she was aware that his weekly earnings were high, she said that on several occasions she had counted his weekly earnings for him and found them to be on an average of $65 just as sure as the day is We'd nesday." She told the judge that I the last work she did was on the

 Doesn't Earn $65 Weekly
 Dorman denied that she is his sixth wife calming that he has been married but twice. His second mar riage took place three and a half years ago, following the death of his first wife. He also denied that he was earning $65 a week claiming that his daily earnings sometimes average but $1.5O or $2. Tt would be impossible for mo with but ten fingers and two hands to earn any morc', DOrmon concluded. Her earnings in a month total aS high as $200 at times, the accused testified. During his statements Of the wrong fiji actions of his wife he accused her of assaulting him, using protanc language when he refused to accept the ratiOns of "burnt soup" and in general of 'trcating mo like a duCk.'
 In passing scntncCc Judge Kirk ham ordered that in default of his paving the SS a week regularly he would serve GO days in jail.
 Fined For Assault.
 A fine of $7 and costs was imposed upon Frank Campbell for assaulting Max Kaplan and sam Applebaum. All three had been charged With assault at the instance of Officer Dombroski, but the judge discharged the latter two and fined the younger man only. The trouble took place last night on Hartford avenue near Winter street and witnesses told of seeing Applebaum take Campbell by the arm and then having Kaplan come to his assistance. Campbell knocked both men down. one of them sustaining injuries to his head, and the other a bloody nose.
 Campbell, who is an eX-service man, had nothing to say to the court Applebaum accused Camp bell and another man of refusing to leavo the seat of his truck and of assau1ting him and kaplan when he tried to put the young man away.

The period prcced- ing 1907 was one of increasing net in come for the railroads. Car orders In 1908, due to investing the Interstate Commerce Commission two years before with rate-making power and placing upon the Commission no responsibility for transportation development, railway purchases became controlled by abnormal conditions which have continued more or less from 1908 to the present time.
 "The year 1908 was notably the lean est of business years up to 1914, not withstanding bumper crops, plentiful money and absence of disturbed political conditions-the three recognized elc- ments making for good business.

Leigh is an officer of the Railway Busi- ness Association, national organization of concerns that sell goods or equipment to railroads.
 "In fact railway purchases do not merely measure general prosperity" Mir. Leigh went on, i'll commenting on the attitude of his association "A large volume of railway purchases causes gen. eral prosperity. Tn other words, it is possible to prove that the prosperity of the country as a whole varies III pro portion to the ability of the railroads of the country to purchase the equipments necessary for their maintenance, condi- tions and bettermcnts.
 'In order to prove this it is only necessary to point out the proportion that the railroad business bears to the rest of the country It has long been the custom to take the iron and steel industry as the truest index of general business conditions. But up 10 the out break of the war the railways of the country directly and indirectly consumed between 40 and 50 per cent. of all the iron and steel produced i'll the country The iron and steel index, therefore, is largely dependent upon the purchasing power of the railroads.

Ohio's New Speed La.ps
Go Into Effect July 6

COLUMBUS. Ohio, July 2-Ohio's
new speed law goes into effect July s..
This law abolishes the old limits Of
eight. Is and rs miles per hour and
substitutes regulation against reck-
less driving, based on the width Of
the road and the conditions of traffic.
The new law makes an offense of
recklessness and goes on to declare
that it shall be presumptive evidence
OF such reckless operation to show a
rate Of speed greater than Is miles
an hour in the congested or business
district of municipality, more than
20 miles per hour in the residence
district or more than 30 miles an hour
in the open country.

blow, it Is said. Local communities
are not permitted to fix speed limits
less than those fixed by the state
| and local ordinances to be legal must
be made to conform to the new state
law.
