HADLEY SEES WiIOKY IN hls ONL TRUST SUIT Believes Highest Court Witt Uphold Ouster Decision in Missouri Case, JEFFERSON CITY, May 3.—Gov. Had- ley, who prosecuted the Standard Oil Co. and its subsidiary concerns in Mis- souri, is much pleased over the deci- sion ef the United States Supreme Court in the Tennessee oll case. This indi- cates, the Governor said, that the Court will probably uphold the Missouri Su- preme Court in its ouster order against the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana. The Missouri Oil cases will be reached
_-—__~ —— in the United Statey Supreme Court, At- torney-General Major said today, prob- ably at the October term. He will file no motion to advance on account of the pressure. of other work in his office. He has little doubt, he says, that the Court will take the same view of the Missouri cases as it did the Tennessee case. Under the order of the Missouri Su- preme Court, the Waters-Pierce Oil Co. was in addition to the payment of a fine jot $50,000, to reorganize by cutting loose from the Standard Oil] Co. As the Standard owns 61 per cent of its stock, just how this was to be accomplished was not clear. As yet it has taken no steps so far as can be learned here to reorganize. Gev. Hadley thinks the Missouri! Su- preme Court is holding the matter in abeyance until the decision of the Su- preme Ceurt of the United States is had.

J, r CONVERSE, WELL- KNOWN PRESBYTERIAN LAYMAN, DEAD PHILADELPHIA, May 3—John H. Converse .of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, one of the most prominent pres- byterian laymen in: the United States, died suddenly at his home early today. Mr. Converse was born in Burlington, Vt., in 180. He was the son of a Pres-
byterian minister and was educated at the University of Vermont. In 1900 he was chosen vice-moderator of the Gen- eral Assembly. of the Presbyterian Church. He was a leader of many benevolent enterprises connected with the church and a trustee of the Princeton Theolog- ical Seminary. In 1898 he was made a member of the American Philosophica) Society.

They can not account for their whimsical moods and don’t realize they are doing anything to cause them. But take a look at the case in the light of science as applied to physiology. Ever study the way coffee acts on the brain and nervous system? “Caffeine,” says a scientist, ‘“‘is a drug found in coffee and tea and is classed among the habit-forming drugs, like whiskey, morphine, cocaine, etc. “It. acts as a so-called heart stimulant first—but the reaction later shows that it is in reality a paralyzant—weakens the nerves and partially paralyzes them. “ Caffeine causes a short period of excitement of the nervous system— a delusory effect. “But this is followed by the inevitable depression of spirits, dullness of intellect and sometimes dizziness.” That's what coffee does, in part. On the other hand, thousands of people have learned to distrust coffee and have found in well-made POSTUM a beverage which tastes similar to coffee but has none of the harmful effects of coffee. _If you would feel clear-headed and well all the time, drop coffee anit begin using POSTUM.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 3—‘“How to keep the love of your wife,” was explained last night by Prof. John Russell Coryell. He spoke to the Sunrise Club, which meets fortnightly in the Cafe Boulevard and Gunpsconey mighty prob- lems. Edwin C. :_ Walker, the chairman, in- troduced the subject by saying that its mere consideration implied “the reach- ing for the unattainable.” Loud ap- plause—chiefly feminine. Then up rose Prof. Coryell to assert that keeping the love of one’s wife was “the easiest thing in the world.” More applause— chiefly masculine. “T’ve asked lots of men,” continued Prof. Coryell, “how they kept their wife’s love. They had never even thought of the question. It was no problem. to them. When I asked the women how Yhey kept their husband’s they grew voluble. But they didn’t contribute anything valuable. In fact I found only one woman who would admit that she did feel pretty sure her husband still loved her a lit- tle, though she didn’t see why. I was less hopeful than she. I knew the man. “Marriage is to a young woman an honorable means of livelihood. To a young man it is a safe and economical opportunity. The young man says he has a ,ob. ,The young woman says she is married. Both mean the same thing, only the woman gets no pay and has to stick to her job whether she likes it or not. “As for the man, he ‘doesn’t care whether his wife loves him or not. Why should he? He is naturally polygamous anyway, and when his wife’s goodness bores him,, he can go some place else. As for trying to keep her love, he doesn’t want it. All he is particular about is that she shall not love any other man.” Prof. Coryell then gave the recipe quoted above. “A man keeps his wife's love;”” he summed up, “by subjecting her to treatment a dog would resent.”’ Many other men and women gave their recipes for keeping a wife’s love, which were just about what were to be expected.

strychnine nor cyanide of potassium in| Chrisman’s organs or Margaret's ejecta} — on the first test. On subsequent fests bad found traces of both poisons. . If this motion had been sustained it would have crippled the prosecution in its effort to establish a motive on Hyde's part. The ruling was a victory for the State. Dr. Haines produced the fragments of capsules Tom Swope found in the snow after watching Dr. Hyde drop something in the snow and step on it. These were turned over to Dr. Haines and he found cyanide in the stains on the ell- velopes containing them. . The , enve- lopes also were made exhibits with the capsules, and all were passed around the jury box. Margaret's convulsion wag followed by nausea, and the ejecta from her stom- ach, preserved by trained nurses, was turned over to Dr. Haines, he testified, when he took the stand late yesterday afternoon. He prefers whenever pos- sible to have another expert work with him in such cases,-and he had Dr. Vic- tor C. Vaughan of the University of} Michigan employed to co-operate with him. Strychnine was found unmistakably in the ejecta, Dr. Haines testified, but not in quantities large enough to be weighed accurately. - Part of Chrisman Swope’s organs were turned over'to Dr, Haines, Jan. 3, 1916 and he found in the liver a trace of strychnine. Two tests for cyanide were matie with the conténts of Chrisman’s stomach. The first showed nothing. The second, Dr. Haines testified, gave a reaction, but he did not regard it as conclusive because certain other poisons may give the same reaction. ° Poison Found in Snow. The fragments of gelatin capsules in the envelopes gave no reaction for cyanide tests, Dr. Haines said, but the snow scooped up with them had stained the envelopes; and this stain, he said, gave an unmistakable test for cyanide. LID CLUB PARTNER LOSESLICENSE Excise Commissioner’ Punishes Offending Saloon Keeper. Henry Grupe of 5300 Easton avenue, rost his saloon license Tuesday because he was caught March 20 in the Fourth Ward Democratic Club, 416 South Seventh street, selling checks good for drinks in the club. He admitted to Ex- cise Commissioner Caulfield that he shared in in the profits from the sale of checks with John J. McGillicuddy (Cud- dy Mack), proprietor of the club. No action was taken in-regard to the club because it has no license to sell liquor and the Excise Commissioner has no jurisdiction over it. Under the law saloonke are not *permitted to have any connection with the illega@ clubs.

formerly president of a Brooklyn brew- ing company, was convicted last night before Supreme Court Justice Marcus of grand larceny in the first degree. The maximum penalty is ten years in State’s prison. Katz was tried for the theft of Ohie} and Davis Daly Copper stock worth $110,000 belonging to F. Augustus Heinze. The case has been better known as the Heinze-Copper-Windser Trust Co. swin- |’ dle. The stock was given the Windsor company as collateral security for a loan of $50,000 made to M. M. Joyce, act- h/t ing for F. Augustus Heinze. Donald Persch, a stock broker, and his asso+ ciates repaid the lean, got the stock and gold it, all without Joyce’s knowl- edge. He complained to the District Attorney and the indictments were found, Persch, who was recently placed on trial for the same crime, will be tried again. His first jury disagreed. Waltér Ciark, ove of the alleged conspiraters, was the principal State witness.
