HALL-M|LLS Jury
RAPSPROSECUTOR
Open Warfare Exists and

By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated freSS.
SOMERV1LLE, n. j., October 25.--
Open warfare existed today between
the September term grand jury Of
Somerset County and State Senator
Alexander Simpson, special prose-
cutor of the Hall Mills case.
The jury, which began consideration
of evidence against persons charged
by the State with being accessories to
the double Staying, and then was or
dered by the prosecutor to postpone
indefinitely the resumption Of the pro-
ceedings scheduled for tomorrow, last
night took matters into it's own hands
and announced through it's foreman,

meet, despite Simpsons wishes to the
contrary.

our own initiative and summon our
own witnesses. / have asked Sheriff
Tunison to notify the jurors to that
effect
Simpson gave as his reason for the
postponement his inability to reach
several witnesses. Reports, however,
were that the defeat of his attempt
to extradite Felix di Martini, private
detective, from New York, and alleged
hostility on the part of the jury when
it heard seven witnesses at it's first
meeting last Thursday, were the real
causes.

SAYS SKIN RASH COMES
FROM VARIOUS CAUSES
German Scientist Finds Effects
Like Those From Poison Ivy Due
to Handling Vegetables.

By Science Service.
BERLIN, October 25.-Effects like
those of poison ivy are produced on
the skin of many persons by strange
diversity of substances, Prof. Max
Touton of the University of Wies-
baden has reported to the Associa-
ton of German Natural Scientists and
Physicians. Such skin raSheS must be
listed among industrial and profess
sional sicknesses, for they frequently
affect workers after a long period Of
handling materials that first are harm
less and only begin to show their i'll
effects when a condition called lana
phylaXis" has been established in the
patient.
Practically everybody in the Braun
schWieg district, the center of the Ger
man asparagus packing industry, gets
poisoned by the vegetables. In the
great German drug houses, packers
are given skin disease by such drugs
ployed only for mild internal medi-
cation. Violin players are poisoned by
the rosin they use on their bows; flute
players, by the grendilla wood of
which their instruments are made, and
hairdressers by the quinine in their
tonicS.
AS in the case of ivy poisoning, the
victim does not gain immunity after
one attack, but instead becomes even
more sensitive. Efforts to build up re-
sistance on the part of the victim by
inoculating them with small doses of
the trouble-causing substances have
met with at least partial success.

The girl bride was sunlnarily sur
rendered to police by her father last

is said, Mr.. Perillo told police he
wanted his daughter held until her
husband could be located and give
assurance the daughter would be
properly provided for.
The young wife, detained in de-
fault of a $500 bond, sent frantic
telegrams to Mr.. Trotter here at their
apartment at 1902 Vermont avenue,
and Friday night he left on hasty
trip to rescue" his bride from the
arms of the law.
Trotter, according to his parents,
became acquainted with his dimin-
utive bride some time ago during his
stay in New England. where he was
studying automobile mechanics. OBJ

ginia and they eloped September 80

they will be reimbursed. They are

100 DIE ON SHIPS
WRECKEDBYS STORM
Two British Vessels Lost,
Heavy Property Damage, Is
Report From Bermuda.
By the Associated Press.


HAMILTON, Bermuda, October 25-
Sinking Of the British naval sloop
Nalerian and the British freighter
Eastway, with aggregate loss of ap-
proXimately 100 lives; heavy damage
to buildings here and unprecedented
havoc among harbor shipping made
up the toll of West Indian hurri-
cane which drove up from the south
and swept over Bermuda Friday morn
ing.
From the 19 survivors of the Va
lerian's crew of 103 officers and men
little could be learned as to the cause
Of her sinking. Her commander,
Capt. William Usher, and one other
Usher was reported very i'll and none
of the other survivors was in condi-
ton to discuss the wreck.
One seaman said the sloop turned
turtle and that only the life RATS
could be used as a means of escape.
AS the survivors were picked up by
the British cruiser CapetoWn, which
did not leave port until Saturday
morning, it was presumed the men
wrecked were afloat on the life RATS
at least "a hours.
The Valerian was returning from
an errand of mercy to the Bahamas,
where she had gone to carry succor
to those stricken in the hurricane of a
month ago.
The British freighter foundered Fri
day night. Hhe British schooner Lu-
CLINE reported that she answered an
sos call from the freighter, but
the Eastway had gone down when
she reached the location given and the
crew were drifting at the mercy Of
the storm. The third officer and II
other members of the crew were
picked up and safely landed.

The right of corporations to re-

and acquisition by Swift & Co. of
packing plants at Moultrie, Ga,

In each case the Federal Trade
Commission ordered the corporations

property, and upon their refusal went
into the Federal courts, losing in the
Western Meat case. but winning In the
others,
