TO PROHIBIT LONG HATPINS Chicago Alderman Proposes to Intro- duce Ordinance. Chicago, March 1.—The death knell of long hatpins will be sounded by the Chicago city council, if Alderman Her- man J. Bauler has his way. Bauler conferred with Corporation Counsel Brundage to find out whether an ordinance forbidding women to wear the wicked looking pins in public places would be legal. Alderman Bauler says he is tired of standing up in street cars and being Kkept continually dodging the points of the pins to keep his face from being scratched and his eyes from being put out. “Those pins are a positive menace to public safety,” he declared, “and ought to be barred.” Assistant Corporation Counsel Hayes believes such an ordinance would be legal.

HE STILL BELIEVES PINGHOT MISTAKEN President Doubts Charge That Ballinger Deceived Him. ‘Washington, March 1.—During his testimony on Saturday before the joint committee of the senate and house which is investigating the so called Ballinger-Pinchot controversy Gifford Pinchot, the deposed chief for- ester, made the sensational statement that Secretary Ballinger had “wilfully deceived the president,” especially in connection with the Cunningham coal land claims. . This same charge was brought against Mr. Ballinger last November while Mr. Pinchot was in the service of the government. The secretary of the interior denied it and the presi- dent sustained him. It may be stated upon authority that Mr. Taft is still convinced that Mr. Pinchot’s asper- sion is not only unfounded, but unjust. He has been following the progress of the investigation and wonders wheth- er Mr. Pinchot can produce any evi- dence additional to that he furnished three months ago, which the president then pronounced insufficient to prove his allegation of deception.

ONE APPEARS IN COURT Director in New Jersey Corporation Is Arraigned and Furnishes $2,500 for His Appearance When Wanted—Ap- Plication for Dissolution of Charters of Concerns Involved to Be Made Shortly. New York, March 1.—Capiases for the arrest of the indicted meat pack- ers and summons for the six indicted meat corporations were ordered by Prosecutor Garven of New Jersey, who will later hand the documents over to Sheriff Kelly for execution. The sheriff will find out what ones of the indicted men are in his jurisdic: tion. Mr. Garven said: “The defendants know of the indict- ments. Proceedings will now take their regular course. I cannot say now just what I shall do after I re- ceive the report of the sheriff. The logical thing for the defendants is to come into court and plead. The atti- tude of the attorneys, however, does not indicate that their clients mean to do that.” “Some time this week,” continued Prosecutor Garven, “I shall make ap- plication for the dissolution of the charters of the Corporation Trust com- pany and the other corporations named in this prosecution if they fail to produce the minutes of annual meetings and furnish other records as required by the subpoenaes.” Counsel for James E. Bathgate, Jr. one of the New Jersey directors in the meat combination, appeared before Judges Blair and Carey. Bail for $2, 600 was furnished for his appearance in court when wanted. NATIONAL ANTHEM BARRED Chicago Meeting Objects to “Sweet Land of Liberty.” Chicago, March 1.—Excited to the point of rebellion by the lampooning of the government because it denies ‘women the same rights accorded men theater almost went awry when MMrs. May Wood Simon, assoclate editor of a socfalistic publication, requested the planist to play “America.” Officers of the Workers’ University society, under whose auspices the meeting was held, barred the national anthem on the ground that the wo- men, who just heard themselves pic- tured as “slaves of the government,” might object to the strains of “Sweet Land of Liberty.” Girl Inherits $200,000. Duluth, March 1.—Edna Bronathan of Gilbert, Minn.,, who has been in charge of the telephone switchboard in that village since last summer, has received word that she has fallen heir to $200,000 from an uncle who resided in Devonshire, Eng.
