WRIT SERVER TRAILS WOMAN TO HER BATH Hearing Maid's Screams, Mrs. Robert W. Chambers Rushes Out to Face Man. NEW YORK, Jane 10—Mrs. Robert W. Chambers, wife of the author, hail a barrowing experience when, according to the police, a process server forced | his way into her home, a maid screaming at his heels and served her with a sub- | poena as she emerged, unclad, from her . hath, thinking the house afire. Shortly after the man had fled Mrs. ! Chambers missed a pearl necklace. The 1 process server was arrested on charges j of grand la-c*>ny and disorderly conduct. ] He denied having taken the neekiaee. i The suit ont of winch the subpoena ! grew was for damages brought in behalf of a small boy, said to have been injured by Mrs. Chambers! automobile last March. From the vigor with which she appealed to the police for aid and the promptness with which she appeared at ; the East Sixty Seventh street police station to identify the prisoner, the police gathered that Mrs. Chambers was deter j mi nod upon rigid prosecution. There was no man in the house it the ! time of the subpoena incident. The com- ; motion led Mrs. Chambers to believe the i house was burning or that her servants were being attacked by robbers. The shock of the affair was undeistood to have been severe. MAIIJ'S WARNING I N HEEDED. It was just after noon when the base- : ment bell rang at the Chambers residence, a five-story structure at 42 East J?ighty-Th!rd street. The maid who answered the bell was confronted by a man who afterward said he was David Hartman. 31. of 1710 Union Avenue, Brooklyn. ‘ I'm Mr. Lawis," the man was quoted as saying. “I've got to see Mrs. Chambers at once. It's something very important.” The maid tobl the caller that Mrs. Chambers was la her bath and therefore could not be asked to come down just then. ■'We'll see about that.” was the answer. And before the maid could shut the door the process server had shoved her aside and bounded upstairs. The maid stumbled, but quickly regained her feet and started after the intruder. As he raced up one flight after another the maid became greatly excited and began to scream at him to stop and to warn him that he must not burst *n upon her mistress. Mrs. Chambers was stepping out of her hath on the third floor when she heard heavy footsteps, followed by those of a running maid, whose cries had become inarticulate. Believing tlie girl must be in distress, and possibly in danger, Mrs. Chambers, without pausing to don a single garment, flung open the bathroom door and rushed out. The process server faltered, then jerked a subpoena from his pocket, flung It so that it struck Mrs. Chambers and shouted: "There's something for you.” NECKLACE IS MISSED. Then the invader turned and ran down the stairs. The maid, breathless and almost hysterical, did not follow. \ few minutes later she and Mrs. Chambers searched the house in order to make sure that he hail departed. Tlsc-y missed the necklace, valued at $2,600. which they were certain had been lying on a tatble in the library on the second floor. Mrs. Chambers promptly telephoned to the East Sixty-Seventh street police sta-

tlon. Detective Wurning was sent to tho house. 'turning arrested Hartman at 209 Broadway. Hartman, the detective said,' admitted he had entered the house and [ “served" the subpoenae, but denied all knowledge of the necklace. If was not found in his possession. Despite Hartman's admission that ho was the man sought, Mrs. Chambers was 'summoned to the ststlon house to identify him. Mrs. Chambers was Miss C. Elsa Vaughn Moler, niece of ('apt. It. C. Du Hols. U. S. A., now retired, of Washington. She was married to Mr. Chambers in 1898. IN BEDROOM, SHE SAYS. By telephone Mrs. Chambers gave s somewhat different version of the affair from that of the detective who handled thei case for the police department. She, said that the intruder had burst into her ’ bedroom, after having flung tile maid aside and tun up the stairs, despite the maid s request that lie wait until Mrs. 1 Chambers was attired to see him. Mrs. Chambers said that last March a : boy about 10 years old on a bicycle - bumped into her car in Central Park and was hurt slightly. She heard, she said, ! from Joseph Jeromer, a lawyer of 299 Broadway, who sought damages on l>e- ; half of the boy's family. She referred the case to her insurance brokers, she said, and later was informed by ihem ; that it hail been settled for $25 an ! that a release had been signed on behalf of ] the boy. It was Jeromer's name, she' added that appeared on the subpoena. BREAD COST IS ANALYZED Half of What Consumer Pays Is Absorbed in Distribution. WASHINGTON, June 10.—A loaf of bread, the joint commission on agricultural inquiry said in a preliminary report, offers a striking example of what happens to the farmer's product In the way of costs and profits before It reaches the family table. About 50 cents out of each dollar the consumer pays for bread, the report says, is absorbed in cost of distribution. The farmer gets only 20.0 cents in the local market for the wheat needed to produce it. A survey showed that the average cost of getting the wheat ready for the baking stage was 8.4 cents, while the average cost of manufacturing it iuto bread was 10.16 cents of the dollar paid by the bread buyer. “A considerable factor In the baker’s cost of distribution, which averages 15.76 rents of tlie consumer's dollar, is the service element,” said tie- report. "Our inquiry does not Indicate that the manufacturing baker has exacted an undue profit in taking the 5.3 cents from the consumer's dollar for manufacturing bread and distributing it to the retailer.” AS others see is. LONDON, June 10.—A noted British grammarian says the American language Is “nourished by the spirit of the United States,” which is “a democratic enmity to all restraint.”

MILLION BACKS GRAIN GROWERS B. F. Hales, Chicago Capitalist, Admits Offer to Sapport Cooperative Sales Plan. CHICAGO, June 16.—The Chicago capitalist who is willing to spend a million dollars in promoting a sales department for the grain growers is Burton F. Hales, a wealthy member of the Board of Trade. Testimony that there was such a man was given before the special Senate committee investigating the United States Grain Growers. Inc., by James K. Mason of Miiton. Ind. Mr. Hales readily admitted that he was the man referred to by Mr. Mason, who had declined to identify tho prospective benefactor of the subsidiary planned to sell the grain contracted fur by the United States Grain Growers, Inc. Mr. Mason’s testimony—that a Board of Trade man was willing to help finance the cooperative organization, which' is looked on by big traders as inimical to their interests—created a sensation in financial circles here, but the identification of Mr. Hales caused even greater surprise. Mr. Hales said hat the question of sales departments for the Grain Growers still was pending, and that he did not know just what would come of it or of his offer to lend financial aid. He would not go into details as to his reasons for being willing to back the proposition. He is a very active man of 6(1 years, and Is known in the financial district as a fighter. He formerly represented the P. D. Armour grain concern on the Board of Trade. The capitalist said his nephew, G. W. Tlnles, would assist him in any financial aid given to the sales plan and that he himself had agreed to advance $59,of*o. whenever it was wanted, it* a starter. He said h did not remember Just how he became interested in the Idea, adding that he "presumed someone approached me on it. as a good business proposition, and I took it up.” “I havp never taken part in cooperative marketing plans,” he added. “Os course, I own some small farms and raise thoroughbred cattle, as a hobby, and I'm somewhat of a farmer in that way myself. I couldn't express approval or dis approval of cooperative marketing, because I've never looked into it thoroughly.” No application for a membership on | the Grain Exchange in the Interest of the United States Grain Growers, Inc., has been made to the directors of the Board I of Trade by Mr. Hales or “any other : person,” John It. Mauff, secretary of the 1 board, said today. “Such an application would be duly considered by the directors if it should be made, and their actions would be governed by the rules," Mr. Mauff said. “Un--1 ti! such a contingency arises the officials | of the exchange can make no comment.” Disagreement between the Board of Trade and the United States Grain Grow- ; crs. Inc., over the terras of entry to the : board has developed Into a struggle in- | volving the agricultural bloc in Congress

PRAGUE BEER OUTPUT LESS Heavy Taxes and High Prices Reduce-Brewing Two-Thirds. PRAGUE, June 16 —One glas of beer le brewed iii Czecbo-Slovakia today to three glasses brewed before the war. The reason is heavy taxation, high prices for materials and the high rate of exchange on the local crown In the currencies of Germany, Hungary and Austria. The pro-war total was 13,000,000 hectoliters; for this year it is estimated at about 4,090,000. Foreign export _ has ceased, German brews are competing with the home product and a vast amount of barley Is seeking a buyer. The price of fresh meat is so high In Czecho-Slovakia that American frozen, salted and canned meats are being sought to relieve the stringency. The

government has called for the American product at prices 50 per cent lower tuuu those prevailing for fresh meat. Various conditions conspire to keep up the price of local meat. Cattle from Poland and Denmark and hogs from Hungary and Roumanla are prohibited on account of alleged infection; there are limited cold storage facilities in tlie country and hut few cold storage cars on the lines of Hamburg. The government will attempt to regulate imports to meet the local demand.
