But she did insist that it was within the province) of the of the house to decree the manner of their serving. Despite their being only five months married, the Pachers have already gone through the pains and trials of three temporary separations.

This has made them both sensitive as to their respective rights, and It required only the question of the potatoes last Thursday evening to precipitate a new estrangement.

He urged the Federal license of all Interstate corporations, giving them permission to incorporate, with a settled charter If they so desired. He suggested the appointment of Federal trade commission to look after the organization and the acts of companies operating in more than one State. "The tendency to combination in trade agreements universal," said Mr. Low.

"The government is undertaking the impossible if It tries to prevent them." He expressed the belief that many trade agreements, limiting output, are in the public Interest and should be regulated rather than prohibited. Mr. Low said the government should above all things try the light of publicity on corporations. Mr. Low gave to the committee the result of a poll of manufacturers, merchants and bankers as to what additional anti-trust legislation was necessary.

Of this number 841 declared that the Sherman law, as now Interpreted, was not "clear and workable," and 881 declared It not feasible to return to competitive conditions in American trade and commerce. A Federal Incorporation act was favored by 767 and opposed by 191; the repeal of the Sherman law was favored by 379 and opposed by 600.

Yet, gentlemen. If she bad been in her right mind, the first teaching of the church would have been uppermost In her mind. This is, that a person must go to a confession, and receive absolution before death In order that the Soul may be at peace with God. This surely must show you that her mind was unbalanced." "On the night of May 4," said Mr. Mahoney, "we reached the climax of the month of torture, which had been tearing her down, physically and mentally.

Her husband was drawing away from her. and told her he was willing to give her1 up, her coming child, his religion and his God, in order to go with this other woman. She found the letters the next morning which convinced her that, added to his other sins, her husband had been unfaithful. She did not consider this as a crime against herself as much as she did a crime against God. Is it a wonder that the weakened mind of this devoted.

Catholic thoroughly developed a crazy-idea of saving his soul by ending his life?" Mr. Mahoney closed his address with an appeal to the sympathies of the Jury- men. Assistant District Attorney Edwards then summed up for the prosecution by saying: "I think Mr. Mahoney's closing lemonade set that he wilfully smasnea to bits. Mrs.

That Is the honor roll which Mr. Jenkins has prepared in case the present police authorities should call on him for information, and be expects, some time this week, 10 receive a visit from one cf the clerks of the central headquarters to. get what information he has on the subject.

Mr. Jenklus knows that the records sent over to Manhattan after consolidation contained all of the data needed to prove the bravery of the bluecoats who laid down their lives for the sake of others, and for the sake of peace, for, while he was secretary to the superintendent of the Brooklyn police for nearly thirty years, he kept the records himself. He has read, or been told, that they have been ost. and is glad that he lias at hand the data to practically replace them. If that Ib the case.

Mr. Jenkins has the annual reports ot the Police Department up to the time of consolidation, and in addition he hah nearly a dozen scrap books which he kept during bis official life for his own satisfaction. Tbey are open to anyone who bos a true Interest In them, but he will not surrender their possession to anybody. Thus It may be that the Brooklyn heroes will gain recognition finally. The selection of the names to go on the bronze plate, which is still a blank, is In the hands of a commission, but It Is allied that many of the Brooklyn men hrtve been overlooked.

Five of the Brooklyn patrolmen who died at their posts were of the force In Brooklyn before consolidation. John Donahue was murdered early on the morning of July 7. 1872, with cart rung In the hands of Henry Rodgers, a member of the notorious "Battle Row" gang, near Eleventh street, in old Williamsburg. Donahue was knocked down with a blow from a cart rung and after he had fallen he was kicked and assailed with bottles. Rodgers was executed Patrolman Edward Scott of the old Fourth Precinct, was beaten to death with stones by members of the "Jackson Hollow" gang, in front of Caroberry's saloon, at Steuben 6treet and Myrtle avenue, on the morning of July 2, 1876.

Patrolman Patrick McKcon, of the old Central Office squad In Brooklyn, lost his life at the Brooklyn Theater Are on the night of December 6, 1876, when nearly perished. 'Patrolman John Thompson of the mounted squad of the old Brooklyn police, lost his life in atempting to stop a runaway team, on December 18, 1877. He stopped the runaways, but fell from his horse In the effect and was killed. Patrolman James M. Stone of the Butler street station, was another of the victims of a gang's fury.

He was stoned to death by members of the "Smoky Hollow'1 gang, which Infested Columbia street and roundabout, on the morning of February 8. 1878. Patrolman Thomas Gallagher of the traffic squad, of the Adams street station, lost his life about Ave years ago hy being run over by a fire engine. Patrolman Edward J. Kavanagh, also of the Adams stret station, about four years ago was shot and killed by a negro whom he attempted to arrest.

Patrolman James F. Mangen of the Fifth avenue station, fell and fractured his skull In rescuing a child from a burning building about two years ago.

Brown came back a moment later and helped his friend Morrissey in making vigorous answer to Klefer's question. The whole story was told to Magistrate Voorhees In the Flatbush Court, whither Kiefer had haled his assailants. It developed that the persons involved were all members of families well known In the Bensonhurst section. The four young people in the belongs to young Morrissey, had spent the evening of November 18 at Stauch'Bi Dancing Pavilion, Coney Island, and were returning home shortly after midnight.

Kiefer was on his way home from a card party when he saw the automobile standing at the curb. "I thought I knew the young women In the machine," he explained to Magistrate Voorhees, "and that Is why I greeted them Jocularly." Magistrate Voorhees told Kiefer that the assault upon him was provoked by his own actions and that the court could give him no redress.

Mrs.

Pacher told the court this morning that she had taken the opportunity to decorate her husband's face, while the father-in-law said that his facial ornaments had been Inflicted by young Pacher. At the conclusion of the general melee Pacher and bis father-in-law ran out of the house and to the police station to see who could first file a complaint. Young Pacher was the victor, and so he appeared as the complainant today. He told the court that when he returned to his house later that evening he found it bare everything except his clothing, his wife having moved all the furniture and other belongings Into the apartment of her parentB. He assured the court that he was a model husband, and that he turned over his entire earnings, $13 a week, to his wife.

Mrs. Pacher admitted that she got $12 out of the $13. She Insisted that Thursday, night's supper, which caused the trouble. Included soup, roast beef and carrots, and was of particularly good quality. She stoutly maintained In court that the presence of potatoes In the soup Justified ttrelr absence from the second course.

Her husband, she told the court, is a man of peace when he Is out of work, but the possession of a Job makes him unbearable. Magistrate Dodd was puzzled.
