TRIBUNE
The Day with the Judge*
Rail-birds and Other Onlookers Find Some
Fault in Awarding of the Blues.
One of the most difficult classes of th«»
horse show- came before the judge* yester
; day afternoon in the competition for the
1 hackney challenge cup. To the lay mind
It did not appear to be so hard to pick the
; winner, but. as it happened, the consensus
of opinion did not tally with that of the
three gentlemen in the rtDa*. and after a
lensrrhy consultation the blue rosette was
I fastened on the bridle of the good little
Lady Scaton. while J. W. Harriman's Lady
lMlham sot only the reserve. Lady Dil
ham i 5 the embodiment of everything that
is desirable in a show horse, manners.
; wonderful action and speed, and she has
: quite as much quality in her little 14.24
hands as Judge Moore's mare can boast
> with her 15.U, hands. '
Paul Borahs Vanity Fair, a beautifully:'
formed little mare with extreme speed, was j
one of those selected In the final round-up ;
after such champions as Ringing Bells. :
: Moonshine. Lady Tuck and Royal Victoria j
had heard the word "Gate." Vanity Fair)
defeated Lady Diihara at Bay Shore and !
won the championship in a class which in- '
eluded ttmeinc Bells, but the contest yes- i
terday was plainly between the Harriman
and Moore entries.
Lady Seaton's victory in the open har- j
ness class was not quite as sweeping but |
she defeated a large field, which included
the once Invincible Lord Baltimore, from
the Fairmont Farms. Lord Baltimore was
: pom? right yesterday, which made him a
! hard one to beat. Alfred Vanderbilfs Sir j
: James is a good looking animal, level head- \
ed and level jcaited, but he seems to be
built for .-■. heavier vehicle than he was. j
drawing yesterday. sad he really travels j
better that way. Jack Donnelly sat behind j
Hob Saw. which looked rather coarse in j
comparison with some of the entries, but j
his style and gaits won him an ■}!. C-. 1 !
from the judges. :
A reversal of form which was almost '
start'unr: occurred in the roadsters class !
when Lorna Doone, a bay mare which has i
received no special attention since the show i
opened, defeated W. M. V. Hoffman's Ten
eriffe, a blue ribbon winner in a similar
class on Saturday, and Frances Bain, the
last-named being placed second. ,
The class was large and difficult, and the '
judges were compelled to eliminate plenty J
. ■;■ blue ribbon winners, among them
Vrineess Morrcll. before they could gel ;
down to the work of deciding the distribu
! tiou of the ribbons. I^orna Doone is un
; dbubtedlj- ■ good little mare, and while
; the d<»cision was an inconsistent one it
j was both a popular and a correct one.
] A •"-•-- which caused considerable riiF
j tension among the box holders as well as
j the rail bird was the exhibition of saddle
j horses, ladies 10 n3". in competition lor
j the Tichenor-Grand cup. All of the old
j campaigners responded to the bugle, ana
! the field included Marksman, with that in
j imitable horsewoman Mrs. Belle Beach
• Bain up; Fairy Queen, ridden by Miss
Caroline- Brvce: Mrs. James B. McKay's
| chestnut mare Lady Debonair: Mrs. John
! Gexken's Vesta Tilly; and William McGib
j bcr-'s Three Cheers. Miss Ellen Rasmussen
rode H«nry lira's Indian Flower, and the
, food 1 ii t 11 I♦■>1 ♦■> mar? added another blue to
t her string.
t For those who prefer a thoroughbred
i saddle horse Indian Flower is beyond
'criticism, and no one disputed her right
I to the blue rosette: but with such cham
j piona as Marksman. Fairy Queen and Vesta
j Tilly in th*> ringr. it looked ptranse to the
i spectators when the one? brilliant Lord
Algy was the second choice. Even taking 1
into consideration th« fact that he Tra?

b-^ii A fourth for Vesta Tilly was a. i
new experience both for horse and rider,
but probably not so novel as the word

FAKE SCALES IN JERSEY!™-^iii_
hum. w , Governor-Elect Severs All Con
~~~ i nection with Princeton.
Inquiry Shows "Deplorable" ,£££?%££ Nov W - A I*tfpr1 * tfpr from
Iliquil j * IWoodrnw Wilson. Governor-elect of !»«"•
Condition in many uties. -Jersey, was given out here to-day, in which
Dr. Wilson announces that he has decided
to resign as professor of politics and juris
prudence In Princeton University, thereby
severing all connection with tbfl teaching
body of the institution. Since Dr. "Wilson's
election to the governorship there has been
some doubt as to whether he would retain
his >rcCormick professorship in the uni
versity.
Dr. Wilson has gone to the Middle West
for a short rest. Before he left here he
was petitioned by his jurisprudence class
to continue his lectures. Dr. Wilson's let
ter, which Is addressed to "my dear
friends," says: *
"Tour request that I should continue my
lectures in jurisprudence has given me the
STeatest pleasure and gratification, and I
wish with all my heart that it were possi
ble to comply with it. I feel, however, that
even if it were possible for me to continue
™y lectures my time would be so broken
jn upon, my service in tho classroom so
irregular and unsatisfactory that it would
be of no advantage to you. and I should
myself be mortified to have the thine badly
done.
"1 have thought it my duty to resign not
only the presidency of the university, but
my professorship also, though by a mis
understanding it was not so Interpreted, at
the last meeting of the board, and there
ore I have to reply to your generous re
quest that I am no longer connected with
he teaching body of the university, which
I have so long loved and served."
MEASURES SHORT ALSO
Municipal Research Probers Sug
gest New State Law to
Remedy Things.
Trenton. >>"• - T - Nov. 16.— "Conditions in
the State are deplorable, and many O f the
inhabitants and many of the honest mer
chants are undoubtedly suffering: on ac
count of the failure of the Legislature to
protect them in this very vital matter," is
a statement made by the investigators
under the Robert L. Stevens Fund for
Municipal Research, which deals with in
investigation of the weights and measures
in eleven cities of the state, filed with ihe
Secretary of State.
Five remedies are suggested to insure
adequate weights and measures. They ate:
First— A revised and adequate state law.
Second— A property equipped state bureau
of weights and measures, which will guar •
antee fairness.
Third— Adequately equipped bureaus of
weights and measures in all large cities.
Strong argument for this remedy is the
conclusion of the United States bureau that
conditions in cities having local inspection
service, even when this is inadequate, are
much better than in cities having no in
spection at all.
Fourth— Either state inspection of weights
and measures in small communities and
rural districts or county inspection of
cities and communities having a population
of less thanSo.OOe, for example, such in
spection to be insured through county |
bureaus of weights and measures.
Fifth— Purchasers should ascertain
whether their dealers' weight and measures
ar»- Inspected aid sealed and should also
make occasional tests of quantities pur
chased to see that four gallons shall not
be sold for five gallons, twenty-eight
quarts for a bushel, thirty-three inches
for a yard, twelve ounces for a pound or j
dry commodities weighed in liquid meas- ;
ures.
The report says that for weights and !
measures 574 stores were visited: for
weights 2."6 places were visited: for scales
555 stores were visited; for dry measure
113 places: for liquid measure 121 places
were visited and packages marked ready
for sale were found in 179 stores.
The report shows that only 4 per cent of
the. dealers had corect weights and meas
ures, etc.: 10 per cent had correct scales;
15 per cent had correct weights; 41 per
cent had correct measures and 11 per cent
had correct packages, while 35 per cent
bad either incorrect weights, measures,
=cales or packages.
WOMEN TO INSPECT DAIRIES
Mcntclair Delegation Off for Milk Sup
ply Section of Chenango.
Montclair, N. J.. Nov. 16 (Special).—Near
ly a hundred club women of Montclair left
this town in a Lackawanna special train
Co-nigh f for the Chenango Valley, in New
York .State, where they will inspect the
dairies of th* Oxford district, which con
tributed a large portion of the local milk
supply. The excursionists will return home
on Friday morninp.
The Border's Condensed Milk Company,
under whose auspices the trip is made, has
(■e O n fighting the Montclair Board of
Health for the last Three years. The lat
ter adopted an ordinance which required
that milk boW in Montclair must come
from herds which have been submitted to
the tuberculin test All the dealers com
plied with this ordinance except the Borden
Company, which sought an injunction and
has str.ee refused to comply with the local
health regulations in reference to the
tuberculin test.
The prrs^nt expedition of the women of
Montcjair is for th*> purpose, of showing
them how tho milk sold here by the com
i? produced.
TIGER CROSSES THE BRIDGE
After Two Weeks in Brooklyn It Goes
to Home in Central Park.
After having spent nearly two weeks on
the Ward Line pier, in Brooklyn, a small
Yucatan tiger cat, or ocelot, presented
to the Central Park menagerie by Mrs.
Marie Robinson Wright, of New Roch»»ll<».
reachei ts quarter in the lion house yes
terday afternoon. Never before, has a
Tammany or any other sort of tiger had so
much trouble in crossing Brooklyn Bridge.
The animal, which looks like a young
leopard, was presented to Mrs. Wright at
Progreso by one of a party of naturalists
p hich had captured It in some Aztec ruins.
When she arrived In Brooklyn on the-
Esp*»ranza or, November i the customs
authorities would not permit Mrs. Wright
to retain the tiger. Tt was only after it
had been proved to the satisfaction of the
government officials that it was to be
placed in the Central Park menagerie and
no fee would be required to see it that the
release was granted.
The tiger caused a creat deal of excite
ment for the lions, who eyed it most of
the afternoon.
GRISCOM OPPONENTS QUIET.
No Trouble Expected # at Meeting of

I!m\ ins lal'ed in their attempt to in :te
opposition to the leadership of Uoyd C.
Grtecom, president of the Republican
County i 'ommittfp, at the "secret" con
ference at the City Club on Monday. It Is
not believed that the Gruber-Betiiiet group
will attempt to make any trouble at the
monthly mating of the committee to-night.
meeting, which is to- be held at El
dorado Hall. Seventh avenue and 62<J
street, is the first, since the reorganization
of the committee in September and since
the Republican state conveneion. One of the
causes of c -mplaint against Mr, Griscom
on the part of Abraham Gruber and
Congressman William S. Be:inet is that he
Hd not call any meeting of the 'Executive

BAILIFFS PURSUE "COUNT"
Camp on the Trail of De Beau
fort Until He Appears.
Chicago, Nov. it— Financial troubles were
added to-day to tne domestic difficulties of
"Count" John Yon Ifoorik De Bea
when the National City Bank of Chicago
filed suit against him for $267, which he ta
said to have overdrawn. This is the fourth
claim made in the courts against De Beau
fort since his open rupture with M If
Killgallon. his rich father-in-law, a week
ago.
The hank's suit was filed only a
time after a claim had been filed by a
haberdasher for |755». in addition to these,
suits have been filed by a book publishing
concern, which claims De Beaufort owes
for a number of volumes on etiquette, and
a second haberdasher, who asks pay for a
numhpr of fancy waistcoats worn by the
"'count."
De Beaufort avoided process servers in
the first of these actions until yesterday,
when a municipal court bailiff, who camped
outside his door in a downtown hotel fm
five hours, manage.-! to reach him.
"DRY COPY" STARTS THIRST
Anti-Rum Advertisements Too Much
for Jersey Printer.
West Orange, N. J.. Nov. 16 (Special).—
The anti-rum crusade over the high school
boys' program for the theatrical perform
ance they are to give Friday night has
saved the boys from being confirmed
drunkard?, through the expurgation from
the advertising pages of the programme
all reference to demon rum. But the arid
state i.'l its pages has had its worst effect.
The printer who set the type has gone on
a "Jag."
"Simply couldn't stand it," he protested
to lii.» buss this afternoon. "I've set up
temperance trac's for shixteen years and
on'y got drunk after "twas all over, hut
this here was th' limit. Never saw any
thing so dry ay them pages in all m' life
before. My tongue was hangin' out from

ARMY AND NAVY NOTES
'Admiral Mason Comments on
Results of Puritan Test.
Washington, Nov. 16.— Rpar Admiral V*'
ton K. Mason, chief of the Bureau of Ord
nance of the navy, is of the opinion that
such an attack as was made on the Puri
tan will never be duplicated In actual war
fare, but that Important lessons probably
n>ny be drawn from the results of the test.
Especially valuable, he thinks, will be the
information gained in connection with the
manner of backinpr armor plates so that
the maximum of resistance to buckling
and dislodprment under any kind of attack
may be secured. The wider plates of a
battleship's belt, he says, would have re
s'stfd buckling more effectually, and the
longitudinal bulkhead in all modern ships j
would have confined the flooding thin j
narrow limits.
Explosive gelatine. Admiral Him adds,
is the most powerful of all the nitroglycer
ine compounds used for military or blast
ing purposes, and is one of the most sensi
tive of such compounds. Th" charge of
two hundred pounds which was used in
these experiments is believed to be the
largest amount of this explosive ever de
tonated.
Norfolk. Va.. Nov. 16.— The monitor Purl
tan, which was submitted to high explo
sive tests yesterday, was still lying on the
flats to-day, where her after compartments
I were flooded as a result of the experiments.
