NEW ENGLAND COAL
CONSUMERS TO ASK
REPRESENTATION
Especial 10 The Evening world. !

POTTSVILLE, Pa, April New
England coal consumers are about to
ask the anthracite operators and
miners now in session at New York
to allow a representative to attend
their conferences. II the request
should be granted, representatives OF
the coal consumers of this region,
New York and Boston will be chosen
to attend the meetings.
Action on this request Will, II is
believed, settle the mooted question
as to whether there is any collusion
between the operators and miners in
bi-annually staging strikes and sus-
pensions in order to sell coal at high
prices.
The United Mine Workers deny
they have any part in this programme
and protest they receive no benefit in
wages whether coal sells at the usual
spring reduction or not. independent
operators say they SEQ no barrier TO
consultation with consumers who are
representative OF the trade, but they
also declare the coal companies are
now taking the only possible stand to
secure a reduction in coal prices-by
reducing the cost of production.
The last available coal in the
| Schuylklll region was sent out last
night, and the only coal remaining is
half a million tons stored by the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company, which is also being
rapidly hauled away.

There Are Occasions When Vol

This Is One.

Who will refrain from joining
with Samuel E. Malcolm, fifty
five years old, of No. 172 East
61st Street, in giving three
rouslng cheers? No one with
the possible exception of William
H. Anderson, when 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Malcolm, after
twenty eight years of married
life, found himself yesterday eve
ming the father of a lusty male
infant and went out and got lit
up like a Hudson River night
boat.
Without the slightest under
standing of the situation, Patrol
man Klinkenberg listened dis
paragingly to the paeans of joy
omanating from the vocal organs
of Mr.. Malcolm on the public
streets and arrested the joyous
parent and arraigned him in
Night Court. There IT was all
explained and the fifty five year

released and the policeman apollo

WITNESSES DENY
STORY NURSE TOLD
WHILE ON STAND
Prosecution Attacks Credibility
of Miss Stones Testimony
in Murder Trial.

The prosecution in the trial OF
Olivia stone, charged with the MUIR
der of Ellis Guy Kinkead in Brook
lyn, to-day continued to attack the
credibility of Miss stones testimony
Her denial yesterday that she had
ever met James r. Clark, Assistant
United states District Attorney OF
Cincinnati, was the first line of at
tack taken UP to-day.
Harry Abrams, secretary in Clark's
office test lied to a visit Of Miss Stone
TO the Federal District Attorneys
office. Miss stone asked to see the
District Attorney, Abrams said. was
told he was not in and she might sec
Mr.. Clark. To this, the witness said
Miss Stone replied she had already
asked his advice and he refused to
help her.
Matthew 7. Hagen, a letter carrier
Of Nashville, Tenn, testified the de-
fendant gave him a card requesting
the forwarding of her mail.
Miss Stone was asked to look up
from the counsel table on which her
head was bowed, so the witness might
be sure he remembered her.
"Yes., / am sure she gave the card
to me-" he said
Edward 1. Reilly, Miss stones
counsel asked the witness If he could
'twear before God that this defendant
was the one who gave you the card, ,"
to which, after a moments hesitation,
he replied, "I will not"
Charles ]. Sawrie, of Nashville,
said he met Miss Stone while walk
ing in Nashville in March, 1906. She
was with a man. She stopped Saw
rie, the witness said, and introduced
the man to him as her husband.
Sawrle said the name given was
either "Selby' or SHELBY"
The witness said he knew Hagen,
the letter carrier, who had shown him
the forwarding card signed "Olivia
Stone"
Miss Stone has testified that the
day of the shooting she went into "a
sort of a saloon" in Brooklyn and
bought three drinks of gin. Private
Detective Frank J. Spadora and Lieut..
Frank Farrell of the Brooklyn force
testified that they they smelled no
liquor on her breath within a minute
after the shooting.
Edward Schwable, Cincinnati de-
tective, testified that n week before
the murder Miss Stone told him and
another detective that she was going
to Brooklyn and if she found Kinkead
living with the Gormley woman she
would kill him.
Charles Ellenrieder, the detective
with Schwable when they met Olivia
Stone, said she told them that de-
tectives had located Kinkead in Brook
lyn and that she was going there.
DIR. Charles Soertzer, Raymond
Street Jail physician, said he attend
ed Miss Stone during her imprison-
ment and had never noted anything
irrational in any of her acts. He said
on the day of her arrest she walked
into the jail unassisted and the next
day came to his desk unassisted, ask
ing for something for her nerves.
This testimony was the first to the
effect that the prisoner was not in a
highly nervous state the day of the
shooting.

not called for in the original budget.
II is true, the Senate has not tackled
these bills yet and 1t is fair to as
sumo that the $215, 900, 900 shrinkaEe
in tax receipts will carry considerable
weight when Congress as a whole
reaches a final decision on pending
measures.
The effect on the autumn campaign
is admitted on all sides. II the Re-
publican Party adjourns Congress
with the prospect of being compelled
to revise the tax laws upward TO meet
a deficit, the Democrats will make
political capital out OF it. Further
more, if the British Government
doesn't pay its interest and a bonus
bill has been enacted into law, the
necessity for higher taxes will not be
denied.
Altogether, Secretary Mellon has
lust written an important chapter in
the Governments fiscal histrY for
the year, and il the truth bt known
the leaders of Congress, who were sc
sure the deficit would be trifiing, are
now somewhat concerned.
Practically all the sources of taxa
ton have been tapped and the al
tentative is higher rates from existing
sources,

GaIax Presents Gloria SWan- son in "Her Husbands
 Trade Mark"

She was a wonderful creature. glorious with life and women gasped at the gowns she wore. Then she awoke to find what she was, just a display of the wealth her husband hoped others believed he had. And who more fitting1y could portray such a role than Gloria Swanson. Glorious Gloria does portray 1t at the Galax where she Is the star in Her Illus bands Trademark"
 The trademark in this case is a gorgeously dressed wife. The husband is not wealthy, but hopes to attain wealth by making show of wealth. However, a mutual friend of both husband and wife, returns after gaining wealth and greatness. falls in love with the wife, and the husband. to promote selfish. financial ends, rather encourages tho romance. This situation eliminates in very powerful climax in Mexico where, after a thrilling fight with the ban dits the husband Is killed and the two lovers find the triumph of their righteous unselfish love.
 Stuart Holmes plays the husband with all his old-time villainous, suave finesse. Richard Wayne Is leading man in the role of the friend and the other eharacterizations are enacted by Lucien Littlefield. Clarence Bur ton. Charles Ogle and Blythe Chapman.

BRAVE WIFE WINS IN. FACE OF BIC. ODDS.
"The Bigamist,' at AIcazar This Week, Based on World
 Famous Novel

The reactions of a young wife and mother to the sudden realization that her husband Is higamist are strib- ingly portrayed in "The Bigamist" by Ivy Duke, pronounced by jury of press and art critics as the most beautiful motion picture star in the world. The Bigamist" based on the world famous novel of the same name by F. F. Mills Young. opens a six-day engagement at the AL cazar theatre, beginning tomorrow.
 The morning following the cele- bration of her fifth wedding anni- versary-happy in the love of her devoted husband and their two splen- did children-Pamela Arnott received letter from England exposing her husband as a bigamist
 The missive was signed by one Lucy Arnott, who claimed she had married Arnott dozen years ago. A tremendous dramatic episode is pictured when Pamela confronts her husband with the letter and he breaks down and confesses his guilt.
 Othef powerfully dramatic mo- ments follow-moments in which Pamela struggles against disillusion- ment for the sake of her children. She informs her husband that every thing is over between them but they continue to live together in their villa on the French Riviera.
 After a stormy scene in which Ar mott twits Pamela that she would have a hard time divorcing him for bigamy the husband leaves. The chill drens governess goes with him.
 Meantime Pamela finds solace in the friendship of George Dare, im- personated by Guy fIewall.
 Subsequent developments are big with drama, relieved frequently by rare bits of comedy by A. Bromley Davenport in the role of Richard Carruthers. Others in the cast are Julia Royce, Dorothy Scott and Edith Ellison.

Aboriginal Folk Were "Highbrows"
 Seuen Feet Tall

Los Angeles. Cal, June s.-(Spe- cial. Aboriginal residents of southern California were giants. seven feet in height, according to an anthropo- logical discovery of the University of California near Mcfarland. in the heart of the oil fields. They were also .highbrows" with large, we'll rounded heads. They lived in mounds and used implements of stone.
 The excavations are being made under the direction of Arling Stein berger, in a now dry lake where the soil is heavily impregnated with al- kaline salts and a selpage of petro- leum. This chemical combina- tion acted as an ideal pre- servative, so that the skeletons were found in a inc state of pres ervation. The first mound uncovered evidently was a burying ground. as the skeletons were found lying or sitting facing the east, as was cus- tomary in the last rites of prim- itive peoples.
 The skeletons are believed to be those of the first dwellers in South ern California, although the skull of a prehistoric woman was unearthed several years ago in the LaBrea fos- sil pits, which produced finely pre- served skeletons of animal life ex- tending back 100000 ;.rc.

 New York, June 2.-It has been an exciting week for the average New Yorker. Not only has he had his own affairs to take up his attention. but he has also grown cross-eyed in the attempt to keep track of young MathiIde Mccormick and her ever changing nuptial plans Nobody has felt more nerved up over these shift ing affairs than the Gothamites, un- less to be sure 1t might be Mathilda herself of Max Oser. The Gothamites watched with interest while Mathilda passed down the avenue on last shopping tour. They hung about the plaza to catch glimpse of the young woman. With interested gaze. he saw her baggage sent to the Cunard pier.
 Watch Mathilde
 And when it came time for the ship to sail, he was on the dock-some three hundred of him--to wish the bride elect godspeed. Instead, with shocked eyes he saw the Mccormick baggage yanked off the boat at the last minute and learned with no less shocked ears that Mathilde was on her way to Chicago to seek way out of the difficulties which mother had placed In the way of June wedding among tho Alps.
 sListening In.
 Mathlldes trunks are still in the Mccormick suit at the Plaza. The average New Yorker is still looking in that direction and listening hard for any breath of rumor It all goes to prove once more what a simple. child-like heart the average New Yorker owns.
 This child-like heart received an awful shock the other day, however, and as one result of the shock It de- ,monstrated even more child-like readiness to be amused.
 Main Breaks
 Most of the water from the Cat skills burst through three foot main on one afternoon and went roaring into great waves down Broadway from S6th street to Colum- bus Circle. It was little matter of 5000, GOO rushing gallons, more water so bon Vivants remarked-thanh had been seen on Broadway since the prohibition amendment made H.20 the rearest thing along the Great White Way.
 Fish On Broadway When the shock of the sight of so much water was over. New York woke up to the fact that for the first time in it's career there was fishing on Broadway, Just why fish should be part of the city water supply re- mains a mystery. but boys with buckets caught two or three sinners in the flood. Grown folks-they, of the child-like heart-got as much fun from watching the deluge as the youngster who waded therein. But it wasn't so funny to learn little later that any apartment above the seventh floor must get its water sup ply in pails from some lower level Here, indeed, was touch of back wood stuff in the middle of Man. haitian.

were arguing the theory of evolution of nebulae hypothesis or something Anyway they had become so inter ested in the argument that they had forgotten the supper which burned to crisp, supplied the smoke. The fire department dumped the supper into the stove and called the po- lice department to husband Murray to the station as the quickest way of settling matters.
 Honest Confession
 Crime has been getting on as well as could be expected, or. indeed much better than that. Two little girls, aged II and 12. amazed detectives by confessIng that for year they had spent most of their time after school hours in picking pockets. An other of their little school playmates had taught them how to do it, and II was awfully good fun. There were also the two little boys, aged 14 and IS, who lassoed a sedate citizen or Brooklyn as he was sauntering down main street, the way they had seen it done in the movies, threw him to the ground and emptied his pockets. But boys will be boys, and nowadays girls will be boys also; therefore why should one be too crltlcal!
 Home week For "Edna"
 Meanwhile Edna-"the beloved thief'-is on her way back to New York where the police are arrang- ing an old home week for her bene- fit Edna is called "beloved' be- cause no matter from whom she steals her pleasing personality all ways wins her a suspended sentence or a pardon. Taking other girls best clothes is Edna's speciality. The girls usually refuse to prosecute. lawyers rush forward to defend her free of charge and Edna goes jaun- tily forth to fields of fresh endeavor. This time she Is wanted for breaking her parole. The Oswego police are sending her hither, and the New York police are waiting with smiles a trifle sour for her arrival Prob ably Edna is the least perturbed or all concerned.

 Solemn, beautiful and revenent though the services were at the monument unveiled in Brooklyn to the war heroes of the nineteenth Assembly district. they had their touch of a smile. For Anthony Pen tola. whose name was inscribed among those of the S3 dead heroes, was among the spectators of the ceremony. Through an extra ordin- ary chance of war, a letter addressed to Pentola had been found in the pocket of an unidentified soldier. The monument had been inscribed and erected before Pentola learned that his name was on the list of the dead.
