Spaul dlng to show him Its alleged defects jester day In tho trial of her suit against Henry J. Kribs, the tailor who made It and from whom sho sought to recover 5J) damages because It did not fit her. Justice Spauldlng, who does business at No. CO Chestnut etreet. Is rapidly gaining- I a reputation as an authority on wearing I apparel, male and female, especially the latter. During the past few months he has been called upon to pass Judgment in sev eral cases of "alleged" misfits, ranging from a gentleman's fioclc coat, to a pair of ladies' shoes. The Judge aluajs reserves his decision until ho has made a p-Tsonul Inspection of the articles In controversy, after they had been tried on by tho complainants In court. He did not deviate from his practice jes terday. Kribs. who acts in the dual capacity of defendant and attorne. su,;gisted ufter the evidence was all In that Miss Lache put on the suit to let the court see what a nice fit It was. "I object." shouted B It. Brewer. Miss I,ache's attorney, springing to his feet. "I don't propose that my client shall be ex hibited here on dress parade after three export tailors havo testified that the suit does not fit." Judge Wanted, to lie Sliotwi. "I have no power," said Judgo Spauldlng In his quiet tone, "to make tho lady change her clothes, but I should like very much to see the dress on her. I thlnl: It -would assist me In arriving at a decision " Mr. Brewer urged his objection. He maintained that the evidence should gov ern, regardless of -whether the Judge might think the dress lit the lady. Miss Lache came to tho rescue by offer ing to try on the suit, and then cast a glance askance about the courtroom. Judge Spauldlng Interpreted the look and placed the use of an ante-chamber at her disposal for s. dressing-room. Sho repaired to the room and the court took a recess to await her return. room dressed wai a suit good enough for any opr" Thft Ti-iA.irii itlrT Tint chnr. In TliA-e. however.

After a heated three-cornered argument between the plaintiff, her attorney and the tailor, the latter said: "Oh, it may ba that It Is a little puffy here" Indicating by gathering the cloth on the shoulders with either hand "but I can fix that In fifteen minutes." Miss Lache gave him a pavcrei look. The Itoods, she said, cost her 2i It Is broad cloth and came from Ireland. The price was 5 a yard and Miss Lache paid $20 for mak ing the suit.

Thomas F. Pierce of Kewaneo be lieved tho proposition of Cullom. 11s set forth In tho letter, was right and proper. Clarence F. Buck, Postmaster at Monmo.ith. declared. "Nobody has the right to use the State Committee for such purposes and no good Republican will Indorse what has been done." John S.

It Is true, but he acted In his in dividual capacity as a friend ot Cullom's. He did not u-fc his position as chairman of the State Committee nor did he write communications In behalf ot Cullom on com mittee stationery. It Is equally certain that he did not sign his name aa chairman to any communication In Cullom's Intere-rt. In my Judgment It would be exceedingly Im proper and unjust for a chairman of the State Commute p to use hi office, to ad vance the candidacy of any man for United States Senator. There never was any au thority from tho State Committee or from the Kxecutlvo Committee for assessing filrli or any cmplojes of the State for political Furpotes or to maintain a literary bureau, am satisfied the State Convention will ex press Its displeasure In no uncertain, terms when opportunity Is ottered." Attorney General Hamlin expressed him self along the samo general line. "The propositions of the signers, of tint letter." said he, "are absolutely correct, ami should bo carried out In tho State Convention. The Republican rarty of Illinois will repu diate tne action of Chairman Rovve and his advisers. Tha proper province of the State Committee Is limited to electing can didates after they are nominated. The real duties and responsibilities of the State Committee and Its chairman begin after the convention. I see no palliating circum stances or conditions by which the chair man can Justify compulsory contributions from officeholders or excuse him for using his official position to assist ono candldato as against others."

This, organization, anti Kerens to the core, will have a gabfest of Its own March 4. the night preceding the meeting the Stite Committee.

Just what this active participation of the St. Loul3 Republican Club In State poll tics means can be Judged by the resources at Us command. Such rich men as diaries Parson-. Corwln H.

If they choose to fight Kerens with his own chief weapon, they can provide the necessities of life to a largo number of hungering henchmen. The confidence with which this organization Is entering the lists Is evidenco that it is In the light to tho finish. In enlisting Its cordial supDort, State Chairman Aklns has plajed politics. Tho character of tho campaign which ho pro pose? to wage during the next few months naturally appedls to th element which e-omposes tho club. It Is said that Mr. Nagel'3 representations to the President during the factional light 'had much weight. According to ono report, the President slg mfiel his willingness to encourage tho or ganization, and the men that stood for tho same sort of principles as those which govern Mr. Nasrel. Test to Come In Convention. The marshalling ef the rival factions will bring a showdown at tho State Convention. Thero the fight will center about the elec tion of a new State Committee, and chair man. Kerens is out of the running, with tho present committer. The Anti-Kerens men clslm at least twenty-eight of tho Thirty-six members, while they think they have even more. Speculation is rife concerning tho prob able choice of Mr. Kerens for state chair man. Ho must train control of tho organiza tion or he will bo compelled to drop en tirely out of politics. His prestigo with the National Committ'e. his personal and social affiliations with the- Hanna ring and his prominence among his followers In Missouri aro all at stake. In one way Kerens has nn advantage. He can profit by any mistakes which the State chairman m ij- make-. Some of tho Aklns lieutenants nre anxious to Ignore every Republican v-lio has ever dared to fight the Aklns fact'on. Thev do not see any use in compromising. Thej wish to make tho victory clean-cut. Especlally among the new Federal appointees Is this spirit prevalent. So far Mr Aklns has displayed excellent Judgment, By openly declaring himself for Roosevelt In I'M ho has made the Isyue plain. He his shown a disposition to "get together" with factional opponents. Ho ad ocates a thorough organization. He has done this even when such a policy has strengthened Kerens, though between tho State chairman and the National Commit teeman there Is no friendship, either per bon.il or political.

Feb. 1-' In a retort made by tho pollco of this city to tho Italian Am bassador In Washington, and the Italian Consul in New York, the direct assertion Is mado that the killing of King Humbert was planned here. The police have named tho men who conspired with Gaetnno Brescl. Many of them aro still at libertv- and. so far as U known, no attempt has been made- to an est them. As a result or this, many Italian residents of this city are denouncing Italian officials for tlmiditj, and the question Is frequently ai-ked, "Why have not the arch-anarchists. Malatesta and his ca-conspirators, been brought to answer for their part In tho plot t'-t resulted In the death ot the King of inly?" It Is even said that ordinarv diligence would have saved the King's life. The re port which was sent to Baron Fava and which reached Consul Branch! soon after Brescl's crime, contains a resume of tho growth of tho Italian anarchist societies in this country. Names and dates aro freely given. . - - - ,!I - 25r V&BVSP.Si-Aiiy -kf.for.ff the assassination of King Humbert, according to U1I3 refort, the crime was planned In tills city. It was at a meeting of anarchists held at the Hotel Colombo, then ownoel by Lulgl Tlrelll, who has since died. That meeting was called by Malatesta, -who pre sided. Among others present were Gactano Brescl. Guido Canovo, the Grazzlnl broth ers nnd tho Blatto brothers, who are now fugitives, believed to be in Colorado. In cendiary speeches wero made, and the as sertion was shouted that Kins Humbert must die. Ilrencl Volnniecrcd Ilia Services. Just at the close of the meeting Brescl -volunteereel his services, sajing ho was ready to make the sacrifice. For this he was loudly applauded, and Malatesta prom ised to return to Europe to -watch tho fit nation and send word when the time was ripe for the blow. Both Brescl and Mala testa kept their word, and King Humbert died the death that was planned for him in New York. Those who foretold the murder of King Humbert Just before It was accomplished, sajs the police report, were Lulgl RaiTazzl, who Is now In New York, S. Pallavlnclnl, who was to have assisted In tha assassination If necessary, but who got no further than Paris, whero he died; Vlto Sovlerl, La Blanca, Paplnl, Antonio' I.arnor, Lulgl Granatl and Salvatora Quln tavalls. Qulntavalle and Larner wero ar rested after Brescl had done his desperate work. Granatl was In Monza. when tha as sassination occurred, and ho was at tho side of the murderer. He escaped nnd a warrant is now held by the New York po-' lice for his arrest. He Is known to be in this country, having come back by way of Canada. Jlessneo to Ilresrl. After the new s of tho assassination reached this city a messaco was sent to Brescl. It contained the two words, "Courage, com rade." That message was sent by ona Ack entelll. whose alias Is PInattl. He then lived at No. 4 Varlck place. He has four brothers, all of whom, tho police declare, are desper ate characters and anarchists. Am,nt, . formation concerning Ackentelll was fur- uisiii-u iu eunaui crancni Dy Detective Ser geant Petroslnl, who stood ready to mako arrests. It is asserted that no request came lor sucn action. There camo a time in May, 1300. when the Italian Parliament was torn by dissension. Then It was that Malatesta decided the time had arrived for Bresci to strike his blow. A. message was sent by cable and Brescl Im mediately responded with a promise that he would start at once. Anarchists In Paterson and New- vmv ,.m. lected funds, and Brescl. Qulntavalle. Lar ner and others started for Italy." Im mediately after the assassination a message was received in Paterson announcing that the deed was done. Great rejoicing followed. In the report Is this statement: "It is presumed that if the house of tho secretary of the anarchists, Francis Wid mar. was searched, letters and papers would be found Implicating him with the assassination, also tho houses ot Esteve and Quabello." These searches were never made, and this has furnished Italians In thl3 city with an other causa for complaint against th representatives of their home Government. SYMPATHY FOR CALEB POWERS.
