MANUFACTURERS
CONSIDER TARIFF

Members OF the manufacturers
section OF the Chamber OF Com
merce. at a meeting yesterday after
noon. discussed at much length the
American system Of fixing tariff
rates.
A resolution covering the sense OF
the meeting was drawn up and will
be sent to the board OF directors OF
the body. This resolution is TO be
considered az the meeting tomorrow
afternoon. It is understood.
In view Of the circumstance. and
TO permit the board OF directors to
discuss the resolution before It is
made public. the members OF the
section said last night they did not
feel they should give out the text
of the resolution. 1t is understood
however, that the section is strongly
In favor Of the American valuation,
and that the resolution will set forth
that position to the directors.
1t is also understood that the sec
ton also passed resolution recon-
mending that the board Of directors
endorse a bill now in Congress for
Improvement OF the patent Office
methods. which are now declared TO
be the most antiquated OF any coun-
try In the world. II takes longer TO
obtain a patent in the United States
than anywhere else. owing largely

Court SUSTAINS
ADAIR DEMURRER
Does Not Relieve Attorney
OF Responsibility to Take
Out License
CHIEF JUSTICE
COMMENTS ON CASE

Chief Justice Pennewill today sus-
tanned the demurrer OF Robert Adair,
attorney on the ground that the in
dictment against him was insufficient
in law. This demurrer was taken by
Mr. Adair in his case OF being en-
gagged in the practice OF law without
having a license.
The Chief Justice read the opin-
ion and said that the indictment
should have set out definitely the Of
fense against the defendant. Quoting
the words OF the statute in ques-
ton, he said, was not sufficient.
Chief Justice Pennewill said that
among other things. an indictment
must set out on offence and inform
the defendant OF his offence.
The Chief Justice Informed Mr.
Adair that sustaining the demurrer
did not relieve him Of liability FOR
being engaged in the practice Of law
without a license. He said II was
dimcult to understand why the de.
fendant had not taken out a license
as other members OF the bar. IL,
said Il was unusual for member OF
the bar and a court official to b,
before the court on such a charge
The Chief Justice warned the de
fendant that he would have to abid,
by the consequences.
Mr. Adair informed the Court tha
he had made the deposit with Clerl
OF the Peace Wright to be applied
to the license II the demurrer were
sustained.

trade expansion. More than SO
merchants OF the town attended the
meeting.
Mr.. Casey gave an instructive talk
on advanced trade methods and in
the course OF which he made sug-
gestion which may prove Of much
value throughout the entire Dell
marvia Peninsula. Chestertown de-
rives most OF it's trade from the
farming country about It. In jan
uary and February, when farming
is at lowest ebb, business is extreme
ly dun.
AS a remedy, Mr.. Casey suggest
cd that the business men obtain some
fine bred pork hogs, place them at
the disposal of the farmers, also en-
courage the growing OF corn for
feeding January and February are
two busy months for pork packin~
Thus during the remainder OF the
year the farmers would be able to
devote themselves to raising corn
and pigs and then during the dull
months harvest" their pork crops
Mr.. Casey cited the case Of Iowa
where a packer started a similar
movement by importing some high
class stock hogs from England.
From a half dozen such hogs, Iowa
has risen until today 1t leads in pork
and corn.
