OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN A GIRL AND A New and Vital Romance of City Life by Virginia Terhune Van "1-e Water CHAPTER XXIX. (Copyright, 1916, Star Co.) Although Agnes Morley had ex pressed herself as sure that the roses she had received had not come from Philip Hale, the more she thought *ver the matter the less certain did "le feel. Perhaps the wish that he had sent them was father to the thought that maybe, after all, they were silent messengers from him. She recalled the quarrel between Philip and her self, going over every detail of it Then she reminded herself of his formal tone over the telephone to day. Yet—if he had not sent the loses, who could have done so? Her first conviction that they were from Randolph Pickens was in mod erate circumstances and that the flowers had been bought at an estab lishment noted not only for the beauty of its products, but for the exorbitant prices demanded for them. Moreover, this florist had his place on Fifth avenue, somewhere oelow Fifty-ninth street. She did not recall the exact street, but she had often een the shop in passing, and had paused to gaze long ingly into its wonderful windows. When she had seen Pickens this after noon he was at Ninety-sixth street, on his way to the Bronx. He surely had not gone back downtown to order those roses for her. Had he bought them before their meeting at 6 o'clock, she would have found them awaiting her when she reached home. Certainly all the' indications point ed to Philip Hale as the sender. He had the money to make such pur chases; he was in the habit of dealing at fashionable shops. She went to sleep that nigtit with the comforting hope that these roses were emblematic of an olive branch of peace. But in the calm light of the fol lowing morning her assurance weak ened. Philip, who had treated her with such coldness lately a cold ness that exceeded that which she had demanded he assume in the office •—would not have made the first ad vances toward reconciliation. DOESN'T TIIINK OF HAIXBRIDGE It never occurred to her that Has brook Bainbridge could have sent the flowers. Of lato she had changed her preconceived ideas about him to such an extent that she tnought of him as she might have thought of Mr. Hale had he been especially kind to her. Her regret for her former unjust opinion had made her banish it com pletely from her mind. Besides this, he was a member of the firm, there fore not on the footing of a possible admirer. Well, if Philip Hale had sent her these roses she must show in some way her recognition of the fact.

She was revolving the matter in her mind as she told her aunt good-by for the day, and her eyes rested once more on the bowl of gorgeous flowers on the center of the table. Miss Lucy saw the look. "Agnes," she suggested, "why not wear one or two of those roses? It's a shame to think you're getting no good of them all daA." The girl hesitated. Hero was one wav in which to show Philip Hale that she appreciated the motive that prompted him to send the flowers — if—as was not at all certain—he had sent them. If not, no harm was done by her wearing them. Thus it happened that she pinned two of the firiost of the roses in the front of her jacket. Annie Kooney looked at them admiringly as she came into the office. "You take one of them, Annie," Agnes said impulsively. "Oh, all right, then thank 1 !?" Annie said, sticking the rose into her blouse. SHE ASKS A QUESTION Philip Hale did not come into the office that morning, and by noon the roso Agnes wore had begun to droop so badly that she placed it in a glass of water on her typewriter desk when she went out. It was when she was returning from luncheon that she saw Philip Hale. He was in the elevator with her, but there were many people between him and her. Yet 111 crossing the corridor she managed to step close enough to him to speak a sentence that he heard. "Excuse me," she said, as he stood to one srfde to allow her to enter the outer office door ahead of him, "but did you send . me a — last night?" "I?" he questioned, so surprised that he stopped dead still. "I? Why no —I have not sent you anything. Why do you ask? Wait!" as she started away. It was lat3 that afternoon that she handed the second roso to Annie Rooney. "Take this," she said. "I have lots more at home." Hasbrook Bainbridge, passing the two girls, while they stood talking, .bowed to them both. Then as he saw the two roscc that Annie wore, he looked puzzled, and glanced at Agnes. But, although she met his gaze frankly, there was no look of under standing that passed from her to him. Surely, he mused with a half smile, she was not a common type of girl.

Has History Permeated With Illegality Washington, Sept. 19. Attorney General Gregory to-day filed a brief' in the Supreme Court In his appeal i from the decision of a federal district j court in Pennsylvania, refusing the 1 government's plea for dissolution un der the Sherman antitrust act and the commodities clause of the railroad I rate act of the Reading company, j called the "backbone of the alleged monopoly of anthracite." The combination, the brief says, has ' a history permeated with illegality j and characterized by a deliberate pur- I pose to drive others from the field j resulting in Increased prices out of. proportion to increased production I costs. | The government contends in its / . NJSX2.,GRAHAM brief that the Reading Holding Com- I pany (the Reading Company) through its subsidiaries, Reading Coal Com- j pany and Reading Railway Company I controls the production, transportation | and sale of anthracite coal from I lands in the Schuylkill region tribu tary to the lines of the Reading Rail way Company and that this control was acquired and is maintained by other than normal methods of in dustrial developments. It further con tends that the Reading Holding Com pany, while in control of Reading Railway Company and Reading Coal Company, acquired control of the Cen tral Railroad Company of New Jersey, J a competing carrier of anthracite and | of the Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal Company, a competing producer of J anthracite, further restraining and; monopolizing the production, trans-! portation and sale of such coal. The j Reading Railway Company and Cen-1 tral Railroad Company together are said to transport 33 per cent, of the total output of anthwicite coal mov ing from the mines, and the Rea-Ttng! Coal Company and Wilkes-Barro Coal Company together own or control 65 per cent, of deposits of anthracite coal. "At the current rate of mining," the brief says, "the coal areas of the com panies, thus leagued and combined to gether, according to the generally ac cepted calculations of geologists and 11 mining engineers, will outlast by I many years those of any competitor. In time, tlieerfore, this combination, j if not dissolved will own or control I every ton of commercially available j anthracite known to exist." The government makes the usual plea that the several coal companies and railroads constituting the com bination be completely separated from, each other and erected into inde pendent units.
