FARMER Chinese Antiques and Interiors, 5 WEST S6TH NEW YORK yyPl A yy 1 NEWHAVEN TRUSTEES ASK FOR ACQUITTAL "Peanut Politicians Behind the Prosecution," Says De-lancey Nicoll.

MeHAIIG DENIES CHARGES. "Til ft Was Ilov In KiilLr-i-hnkra Time of Alleged Conspiracy," Says Lawyer. Pleas for a verdict of acquittal In behalf of each of the seventeen defendants, individually, were heard by Judge Hunt In the United States District Court, Manhattan, today at the trial of the eleven former directors of the New Haven Eailroad under the Sherman law. The first was made in behalf of Henry K. McHarg by Homer S.

Cummins, who declared that 99 per cent, of the testimony given in the case had no application to his client. He pointed out that McHarg did not enter the New Haven board until June, 1907, and said that practically all the acquisitions which the Government complains of had been completed by thiit date. Though McHarg was a director during the Billard-Boston and Maine transactions, asserted the lawyer, he had no connection with them. Henry M. Earle made a similar argument in behalf of Robert W.

Taft, who entered the board In 1904. When this alleged conspiracy began," said Mr. Earle, "Mr. Taft was a small boy running around in knickerbockers. Not one act of Mr.

Taft shows that he was conscious of any conspiracy or intended to conspire MAY GIVE TAYLOR'S JOB TO REPUBLICAN PITTSBURG SAVINGS GO IN BANK FAILURE nri.c lie uic uvaiui I cessor of his father." Meanwhile Miss Bergin Is Worrying How to Make Good Loss of Friends' Savings. HER LOVER KEPT BANKBOOK. Wlicn Brldc-to-be Went to Bank for Santa Claus Fund It Was Gone. A broken engagement after the wedding had been set for New Year's Day, the prospective bridegroom held for examination on a formal charge of "uttering a forged instrument," the young woman in the case worrying over replacing $240, and a group of young women in a Manhattan business bouse upset over the loss of money they had saved for a year against the Christmas season that is the outcome of a visit Miss Elsie V. Bergin of 944 Pacific street made to the Brevoort Savings Bank, Nostrand avenue and Macon street, yesterday.

Miss Bergin, who is 23, Is the young woman whose engagement has been broken. Her former fiance, Evan T. Lloyd, 29, an ex-soldier, of 958 Atlantic avenue, is the man held by the police, and the other young women are fellow workers with Miss Bergin, Early in the summer the young women decided they would save a few dollars each week for a Christmas fund, and after forming a society, made Miss Bergin the treasurer. She collected the funds and placed them, from time to time, in the savings bank, carrying the account in her own name. She had not had her account balanced very often and it was only yesterday she went there to lW that instead of the $240 she had thought credited to her the balance had been closed when the last $40 had been drawn out on a voucher advanced by a man.

K. W. Appleyard, paying teller of the bank, told Miss Bergin that the man had come quite often, always with the same voucher, always signed with her name. It asked the bank to pay a certain sum to "the bearer, who Is my brother," and the bank had done that. According to his statement, which he made to the police, the first of these drafts came last June.

Miss Bergin took her trobles to the police at once, and Detectives Downey and Assip of the Seventh District Bureau were assigned to the case. According to their story, they learned that Miss Bergin had met a man named Lloyd early last summer, and that she had been often with him. Her story differs from that of the bank, in that she said that she gave Lloyd her bank book to carry home from the motion pictures one night in November, and that she never got it back. The girl told the police that Lloyd called every night and that they had planned to be married. She said that he put off her request for the bank book by saying that it was locked up in his trunk, and she said she thought it as safe there as anywhere, and so did not worry.

Ex-Soldier Jumps Two Stories in Effort to Get Away. Last night the police, having ascer tained that Lloyd's description was the same as that of the man who had gone to the bank, visited his home with Miss Bergin. When the ex-soldier saw the detectives, he leaped from a story window to the ground, and tried to run away away, but Assip and Dowd followed him. and after a long chase finally caught him. After they had arrested Lloyd, the detectives say, they questioned him about the drafts on the bank, but he would tell them nothing.

He refused to say how many times ho had called, or when he had first gone there, but he finally did tell them, they say, that he had written all of the vouchers and had then handed them to Miss Bergin, who had signed them. Such an accusation was indignantly denied by the young woman when she appeared In the Gates avenue court today to press the charge against her former lover. Miss Bergin insisted that the very first intimation of anything wrong she had, had come when she visited the bank to draw the money yesterday. Her friends in the Manhattan store had waited until then to get their money because they wanted to use it just before the holidays, and Miss Bergin said that her relations with Lloyd had been such that she trusted him while he kept the bank book. The detectives say that they have looked up Lloyd's record and have found that, he was formerly a member of Company First Battalion of Engineers, and that he was discharged on February 13, 1915, for being "unfaithful" in the ranks.

Magistrate McGuire, after hearing the first part of the case, decided to hold Llyod for a further hearing. TO SIDETRACK CALDER? Brooklyn Republicans were much agitated today over a rumor that William R. Sheffield, president of the New York Republican Club, was to be put in the field as a candidate against Former Representative William M. Calder, for the nomination of United States Senator. It was said that the Sheffield boom was to be lauched at a dinner to be given at the clubhouso in Manhattan on the night of January 6.

GETS $425 FOR FINGER. Tcnr hrnknn flniyor nf hid rl.rl. hand, james F. Hervey was today uwn.iiii.-ii fi.u uy u. July ill USUUU Heuddcr's part of the Supreme Court.

The verdict is directed against the J. M. Palmer Company. SaysTwe 'can't help but look better arid feel better after an inelde bath. To look one's best and feci one's best is to enioy an inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous day's waste, sour fermentations and poisonous toxins before it is absorbed into the blood.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in the alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, winch if not eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are in tended to suck tn only nourishment to sustain the body. ir you want to see the glow of healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a harmless means of washing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract before putting more food into the stomach. Men and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid complexion, also those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipation should begin this phos-phated hot water drinking and are assured of very pronounced results in one or twd weeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the inside organs. We must always consider that internal sanitation is vastly more important than outside cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do.

Adv. AFTER XMAS SHOPLIFTERS Six Women Ahe Arrested in Department Stores. I There was a general movement ves-terday on shoplifters in the department stores on Fulton street, and several were arrested.

KOEMG WILL BE WITNESS. Austro-Gcrman Grand Juries Will Return Findings Today, Ls Prediction. Detective Sergeant Otto F.

Mottola of the Police Department, who was suspended when his name was linked with those of Paul Koenig and Frederick Metzler, alleged plotters for the destruction of the Welland Canal, Canada, was served today with the charges against him. He will be tried Friday before Third Deputy Police Commissioner Dunham. Mottola is a resident of Brooklyn, his home being at 649 Fifty-second street. Mottola is charged with violating the rules of the department and conduct "unbecoming an officer." The accusation against him ls that he made a false official statement to Inspector Cray. Tho specifications of the charges show the following questions asked Mottola and the answers he made: "Are you quite sure you never gave Koenig the number of tha outside wire of the First Branch Detective Bureau?" "No, I never did." "Have you ever been receiving $3 a day from Koenig or Metzler?" "I never received any money whatsoever." "Have you received money of any kind from Koenig or Metzler?" "No, I never did." "Have you been promised any money from Koenig or Metzler?" "No, I never have." All of these answers are alleged to be false.

The complainant In the case is Inspector Faurot and tho witnesses will be Inspector Cray, Paul Koenig of 147 West Ninety-fifth street. Manhattan, and Frederick Metzler of 101 Reservoir avenue, Jersey City, N. J. New Anglo to Plot Case Expected Today. Before the day is over a new angle of the German plots to interfere with the relations between this country and the Entente Allies is expected to develop.

It is expected to be an important detail, leading, as have the others, up to Paul Koenig, now under $50, 000 bail in the Welland Canal conspiracy. Indictments by the two grand juries now considering the different plots are expected late today. There are several witnesses to be heard, however, and the cases may not be olosed until tomorrow. The new development expected todav was referred to only guardedly by the federal officials; the only information obtainable being that Koenig would be further involved. In connection with the canal plot, United States District Attorney Marshall could not be induced to disclose any of the details of what Fred Metzler had told the Grand Jury, except to say: "He has helped us a great deal." The testimony of Samuel Gompers and Frank Morrison of the American Federation of Labor, Mr.

Marshall said, also strengthened the Government's case against the heads of the so-called "peace council." Mr. Marshall avoided any allusion to Captain Karl Boy-Ed. He said Captain Boy-Kd is now in the hands of the State Department, "and I do not even want to mention his name." His attention was called to the fact that Koenig was supposed to have done work for Captain Boy-Ed, and that the latter had furnished funds to the secret agent. "This may be true," Mr. Marshall said.

Six indictments at least will be returned by the Grand Jury in the Labor's National Peace Council case, it was learned. No more evidence is before the jury this afternoon and Assistant United States Attorney R. H. Sarfaty is summing up the evidence. The testimony given by Samuel Gompers yesterday clinched the Government's case, and the Government feels confident.

A blanket indictment under the Sherman law, charging conspiracy to hamper industry in the United States, is expected. The Government, however, will be satisfied if the jury sees fit to bring in different findings against the various men under fire. DIDN'T CHALLENGE LOANS Wall Street Methods Shown in Lowden Trial.

SEVERAL G. O.

P. LEADERS IDLE. Raffcrty, Moore or Owens May Land Nice Berth in Pound's Office. The Republicans, who successfully found places for two of their leaders In Borough President Pounds' office are said to have their eyes on another berth there. The place is held by William J.

Taylor, Independence Leaguer, and the G. O. P. men see no reason why Independence Leaguers should be holding down soft jobs when Repubdlican leaders are walking the streets. Superintendent of Sewers Taylor receives $5,000 a salary which looks particularly good to some of the Republican executive members Just now, to tide them over the lean days of a Democratic administration in the county.

Tho Republican leaders have shown marked ability In ferreting out places for those of their number who have been or will be ousted from the county offices after the first of Januarv, but John T. Rafferty in the Twelfth, Jesse D. Moore in the Thirteenth, George Owens in the Fourteenth and Richard Wright in the Fifteenth, still remain unprovided for. They arc anxious to get in out of the cold, and one of them may land Taylor's place, should the Republicans successfully find a way in which to rid themselves of the Independence League man. Taylor was made Superintendent of Sewers as a reward for the G.

O. P.Independence League fusion in 1911, but this 'year the Leaguo fused with the Democrats. Besides that, Taylor, who was once a power in the Hearst organization, has lost much of his prestige there because of his unsuccessful fight on Register E. T. O'Loughlin.
