Special Dispatch to The Tribmns
ALBANY, Nov. 18.-A time
clock has been installed in the
executive Offices, and the goings
and comings of the Governors
employees are being carefully
checked. Governor Miller is away
from the capital at present, but
members Of his staff declare that
they will appeal to him for the
removal Of the labor recording
device on his return.
All Of the other state depart
mental workers have been work
ing under the regime of the time
clock. Those employed in the
Governors Office, however, de-
clare that they are entitled to
extra consideration for the reason
that Governors and administra-
tive affairs seldom keep regular
hours. As result, they believe
they should be allowed to catch
up on their sleep schedules when
they see fit.

Cereal Co. Claim for Goods
Burned Based on Issue Of
48 Hours in Contract With
Road Included Sabbath

Upon an agreed state of facts, in an
action brought by the Cereal Products
Company against the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna & Western Railroad Company,
the Appellate Division, yesterday had
to settle only the question as to
whether Sunday was legal holiday.
The decision Of the court was that
Sunday is "sanctifed holiday"
The Cereal Products Company
shipped from Wisconsin to Weehawken
on the railroad OF the defendent TAO
bags Of malt. 1t arrived in Weehawken
on Friday and was stored aboard OF q
lighter. The bill of lading provided
that the railroad company would not
be responsible unless the goods were
removed in forty eight hours, exclusive
Of holidays. On the following Monday,
three days later, the malt was damaged
by FIRE that broke out on steamer
alongside of the lighter. The cereal
company put in q claim for the loss
of the shipment. which the railroad
company rejected on the ground that
more than two days had elapsed
between the time the malt was received
in Weehawken and it's destruction.
The Cereal Products Company's re
ply to the contention Of the D., L. & W.
that three days had elapsed raised the
point that Sunday was holiday and,
therefore, only two days--Saturday and
Monday-had INTERVIEWED. All otner
facts being agreed upon, the question
as to whether Sunday could be con-
sidered legal holiday was put up to
the Appellate Division. =,

r~ou. The Trsbuae's Washington Bureaw
WASHINGTON, Nov. iS.Arguments
n the controversy over the S0-cent
ras rate in New York City, in which
Attorney General Newton, of New York
State, is appealing from the decision of
Federal District Judge Hand in favor
Of the Consolidated Gas Company
were completed before the Supreme
Court Of the United States this after
noon. 4 decision may be delayed
until the arguments in similar pending
eases have been heard.
W. l.. Ransom, for the Consolidated,
closed the argument. Previous to that,
Deputy Attorney General W. w.
Chambers and Associate Corporation
Counsel John P. O'Brien, of New York
City presented arguments on the pub
lie side.
Owing TO statements that, the Public
Service Commission had withdrawn
from the case, the court inquired about
this in the course OF Mr.. Chanlbers's
appearance. Mr.. Chambers explained
that there had been no withdrawal. that
the Public Service Commissioner,
Lewis Nixon, who was in the case when
it was begun had been legislated out
Of Office and there was q new commits
sion, which was not taking an active
part in the action. but stood ready to
Ak rate when the controversy before
the court had been decided.
State Criticizes Valuation
One of the contentious made by Mr..
Chambers was that a fair valuation of
not exceed s2S, ,000, 600, as against more
than $4,000, 900 fixed by the lower
court He insisted the company had
had a fair return ever since the 80
cent rate had been put into force. He
took up the $12,000,0O0 surplus fund of
the company, which is called "con-
tingency fund.-" and said if the COM
pany were not making a fair return it
could reach into this fund. He charged
that the court below had violated we'll
known principles in fixing the deprecia-
ton of the plant, and he insisted the
company had had a 6 per cent return,
and s27 100000 excess, on fair value
OF its property from 1905 to date of
trial
Mr.. O'Brien urged the court to pay
the company for gas oil to the Stand
ard Oil Company Of New Jersey. He
said that William Rockefeller. who is
heavily interested in the Standard Oil
Company, also was interested in Con-
soidated Gas, and was instrumental
in making the gas oil contracts. He
argued that the Consolidated was pay
ing much more for gas oil than is paid
by gas companies in Philadelphia, New
Jersey and Boston. ~
Mr. O'Brien contended that the
Standard Oil Company. by controlling
the price of gas oil used by the Con-
solidsted, could make any rate appear
confscatory.
Mr.. Ransom said the 8o-cent rate
was conhscatory on the basis Of cost
of material and labor alone. He urged
the court no. to permit whatever rate
should be fixed by the Public Service
Commission to be retroactive. With
respect to the s12,000,000 contingency
fund, he held this was merely undis-
tributed surplus and was not consid-
cred by the company in determining
the cost of gas.

same, About four years ago lost
my hair and had accumulated so
much dandruff that when I comb
ed my hair the dandruff would fall

hood. Different things would APP
pear to me in my slumber; I would
awake and find them true. l have

good by my dreams. In the year

showing me what to get for dan
druff and falling hair. was not i'm
pressed at the first presentment,
but when II came to me the sec

came to me; you know your dream
came true, why not try the formul-
la? So / prepared 1t and used It
two or three days. The itching
stopped, my hair ceased falling, the
dandruff was eradicated. / did not
notice my hair was growing, how
ever, until four or six weeks; then
had a new growth OF hair. Now
my hair is longer than II ever was in
my life and very thick. I would
be very pleased to have every wom-
an that has scalp trouble, short or

Grower is that 1t will correct any
unhealthy condition Of the scalp,
that 1t will destroy parasite life, it
will stimulate the sebaceous glands
