sy E i I AITERNOT BREAK. LAWS 4yprICE OF GOVERNOR. Calls Percy-Gray Statule a Despic ble Trick on Constitution. xvack, June 2 —Racetrack gambling was de poumeed forcibly again by Governor Hughes when he spoke this afternoon at the cele pration of the Rockland County Taxpayers' As enciation. ‘The address was heard by twenty ve hundred persons, gathered in a huge tent, and his reference to the racetrack evil brought arth a Storm of applause. He denounced the percv-Gray law as the most desj'icable measure on the stalute books. The Governor arrived here early in the after poon and was the guest of the association at a dinner. When he entered the mecting place he received an enthusiastic greeting by the twenty five hundred persons present, and his address was punctuated frequently by demonstrations of hearty approval. The evils of government ex ravagance and corruption and the means of correcting or avoiding them was the Governor's main theme, but his mention of racetrack evils, altho’ incidental, was the most striking feat gre of his address. rhe evils of such government extravagance gnd of corruption were chiefly felt. the Governor «gid, “by those who sometimes ir their ignorance +ain in power the machines and organiza gens whch, through dealing out pretended charity and by hypocritical cultivation of the pumane feclings, nold ané control a power in imicsi to the best interests of the people who gre unable 10 protect themselves.” Leading up 10 the racetrack gambling ques tion, Governor Hughes expressed confidence in the trustworthiness of the vast majority of the perple. “The men You cannot trust,” he said, “are tha gelf-chosen persons who undertake to dominate the men can trust. Having this calm con $dence in the honor and integrity of men, we snsist and at 211 times must insist that the laws +e hzve enacted must be observed; that if the jaws are not right they must be changed, and that we will not become connivers at law preaking ourselves to tolerate an evasion or a tricky performance of legislation on the part of others. wrhat is why,” said the Governor, “I have sought. 8s strongly as 1 might insist, that the constitution of the State of New York should rot be tricked.” Governor Hughes then said: mali. I selected one matter because 1t was one about which there could be no debate. With the morality and the integrity znd the manhood of she state on one side, reinforced by the express language of the constitution, and on the other side onir those who would with contemptuous disregard of the morals of our veuth and the explicit mandate of the constitution and of our law seek 10 make money Ly the most despicabla and demoralizing of means. 1 hare never known, in a study for some vears rn the subject of legislation. anything more utterly despicable as a trick upon the constitu sion than the Percyv-Gray law; and I have held it hefore the people of the State of New York simply because here was an illustration of the way power, unscrupuiously used. could thwart the will of the people, though expressed in the most solelnn Marner. The Empire State is a state of sound constitu ems. It is a state of splendid citizenship: and whatever raay be done to-day or to-morrow or next week, or the week after that. the issue =0 tiegrir made can have but one result, and we zre going to prove that the constitution of the fiate of New York is supreme, and that all who rome within our borders, ali who are seeking what mar he calied reforms, know that the paiient. respectful method, and regard for law 2nd order. znd respect for property rights and fnsistence upon progress according to the genius of our institutions, are recognized as essential to our development in the State of New York. Nothing is more offensive tn the American citigen who values his birthright than the knowledpe that one man can say to the repre sentative nf the people: “Why, I promised your vote tn Ro-znd-So, and if you vote the con rary vou will not get a nomination: vou won't £2t 2 renomination; vou can't go back. 1 have promised 1 our vote to Sp-and-Son.” We hzve got 10 have American manhood as nt itself. The people. within constitutional imite. can have what they want. They can “nange the oonstitution if they do not like it. They can send such men to represent them as they please: only let them speak, and do not let ug have the machinery of our republican govern ment turned against us, for the people, when they wart tn speak, can make their voices ef fective. Governor Hughes strongiy advocated the prin ciple of direct nominations, not, he said, in dis Yaragement of party organization, in which he thoroughly believed, but that the people may Bet the representatives they want and the legis lation they desire—so, he said, “that each rep Tesentative may feel that he must go back, not 102 man in a corner room to expiain, or to three or four men to fix it up, but the community Thich sends him, which will uphold or con demn, zccording to his record.” N GIVE MONTREAT TO PRESBYTERIANS.

Washington, June 2.—A suit which may cost the government upward of $4,000,000 for back payments and an incalculable sum in the future was instituted to-day by the Chicago Alton Railway, whereby it is designed to test the legality of an order issued by Postmaster Gen eral Cortelyou changing the divisor used in com puting the weight of the malls carried by the railroads of the country. The Chicago Alton asks for £0,000 back pay. but all other railroads are awaiting the outcome of the suit, and their claims to date aggregate approximately §4, O00, ONG, Two years ago Representative Murdock called attention to the fact that the Postoffice Depart ment was following the practice of weighing the mails for a week and then dividing the total by six, on the assumption that mail was not car ried on Sundays. The product was then used to compute the average weight of mail carried a month and year, and Mr. Murdock, after giving reasons for his belief that this method mulcted the government of a large sum annually, intro duced an amendment to the Postoffice appro priation bill to alter the system. The amend ment failed of adeption and the matter dropped. Just before leaving the Postoffice Department to become Secretary of the Treasury, a year ago, Mr. .Corteiyou issued an order making seven instead of six the divisor to be used in the coinputation of the annual weight of the mails, and by so doing altered a practice of thirty wears’ standing. The railroads protested vigorously at the time, and ever since have reg ularly filed claims for the excess payments which would be due them were the old divisor still retained. It is understood that most of the mail carrying railroads have joined the Chicago Alton in the suit instituted to-day. The claim of the railroads is that the change was without authority of law. This Time Texas Sheriff Expects To Be Successful. A} Fort Worth, Tex., Junas 2 —Sheriff B. A. Mat thews, of Travis County, telegraphed to the St. I.ouis Police Department to-day to arrest H. C.

Matthews is preparing his office affairs, that he may make a hurried trip to New York or St. Louis, and to-night said he fully expected this time to return with Pierce.

GOVERNOR AT THE ASTOR. Dines There with General Woodford ——onvention Rumor Denied. Governor Hughes dined last night with General Stewart I. Woodford, president of the National Hughes League, at the Hotel Astor. The presence of the Governor here yesterday inspired various rumors, the rumors probably having their origin with the friends of the racing men. The most per sistent was that if the racing bills failed to pass for anv reason whatsseier, the Governor would forthwith announce that he was a candidate for renomination. This announcement, so the sgtory goes, will be coupled with the withdrawal by the Governor of his name as a candidate before the Chicago convention, thus leaving the way open for the unanimous nomination of Secretary Taft on the first ballot. Such rumors would be important and significant if there was rea! foundstion for them. As a mat ter of fact the Governor has not changed his atti tude in the slightest particular. He did not seek the support of delegates from this state, or other states for the Presidency, and if they choose to support him for that honor at Chicago he will not interfere. When General Woodford was asked about the rumors last night he said: “The name of Governor Hughes will be presented {or the Presidential nomination at Chicago. Noth ing that can protably occur between now and the assembling of the national convention will prevent the presentation of his name at the convention.” When the Governor himself was asked about the rumors he begged to be excused from discussing them in any way, adding the suggestion that he hoped that his refusal to discuss the subject would not be construed as having any significance what ever. Governor Hughes is likely -to be in town to-day. There is a possibility that his secretary, Mr. Fuller, will bring news of official business at Albany that will prompt his return this afternoon to that city. but if nothing unusual happens the Governor will spend the day quietly at the Hotel Astor. To morrow at 10:30 o'clock he and his staff will leave the New York City Hall for Jamaica, where the Governor is to review a parade in celebration of subway rapid transit through to Jamaica. The Governor will make a short address at Kings Park, Jamaica, leaving there about 12:15 for the Oxford Club, Brooklyn. where he wiil meet the officers of the Brooklyn Sunday School Union, whose guest he will be in the afternoon. The Governor will review the annual parade of the Prospect Park division of Sunday school children. To-morrow night he will address the dinner of the Allied Real Estate Association at the Hotel Man hattan. On Friday morning he will return to Albany.

Coey’s Chicago Fails io Equal Long Distance Record. However. Watertown, 8. D., June 2.—Compelled to alight because of rain, the balloon Chicago, owned by Charles A. Coey and driven by Captain C. L. Bumbangh and Charles Leichliter, which left Quincy, IIL, last night at 6 o'clock, landed this morning at 5 o'clock in the country eight miles south of Clear Lake, S. D., covering over eight hundred miles in eleven hours and winning the worid’s speed record with an average of seven iy-five miles an hour. Captain Bumbaugh was bitterly disappointed in not breaking the long distance record and his failure to win the Lahm Cup. This afternoon he said that had he not eacountered rain he would have easily outdis tanced all previous records. Mr. Leichliter left Clear Lake to-day for Chi cago, Captain Bumbaugh remaining behind to pack the balloon ready for the return by rail to-morrow. He said he would make another ef fort to win the Lahm Cup. “I have great confidence in my balloon,” he said. “It is a marvel. Not a particle of gas es caped in the long flight, which was without in cident. I am confident that this wiil prove the fastest air vessel of the present age, and as soon as weather conditions settle IT wjli make another try for the long distance record.” Chicago. June 2.—The follow telegram, dated Clear Lake, 8. D., was received to-day by W. H. Pickens, of the firm of C. A. Coey Co., from C. H. Leichliter, one of the three men in the balloon: Landed at Drayver. eight miles southwest of here, at 5 a.m. to-day. Figure that we made close to eight hundred miles in eleven hours. smashing various speed records, as the initial flight was due west {rom Quincy, a considerable distance beyond Kirksville, Mo., the las* town we spoke to, and thence by compass due north, then northwest for a short time, then slightly northwest, which landed us here. The actual mileage covered in the eleven hours’ flight was much greater than would be computed by a bee line measure. From mifnight we were harassed by a steady fall of rain, which no amount of mancuvring could escape. When the rain first struck us we went up to an altitude of 6,500 feet, seeking a stratum which would be above the rain cloud. Instead of benefiting us, we found colder air, which contracted ‘the gas, compelling us to throw out practically all our ballast. After a straight hour and a half of rain, the barometer did not indicate a variance of sixty feet in our altitude.

When the cold air struck our bag we dropped 1,500 feet in less than a minute. Colonel Coey and Captain Bumbaugh were throwing out sand as fast as they could work, while IT watched the instruments indicating the altitude and condi tions. The next few hours were thrilling enough to satisfy even the veriest enthusiast. It appeared momentarily that we would be compelled to make a landing in the darkness, which fright ened even Captain Bumbaugh, with all his experi ence in aerial navigation. In the lower alti tude, however, a warmer rain prevailed, heating the gas and enabling us to hold on until day light. We hoped that the sun would expand the gas, but instead of sunshine came a cold beat ing rain which soaked the basket and passen gers. The basket bumped the ground three times before it became apparent that there was no Lope of continuing our fiight. When we made our landing, we had cnly half a bag of sand ba! last I2ff. Under ordinary weather conditions it is cer tain that the long distance record would have hava been broken without question. Tt was announced to-night by William ¥H. Pickens, the representative of Mr. Coey, that another trip would be made in a short time, starting from Quincy, Il. I (CAR OVERTURNS "TAXI." Five Men Thrown Into Street and Cab Demolished. A difference of opinion between James Morrisey, motorman of a southbound Fourth avenue surface car, and John McMahon, chauffeur of a taxicab, at Fourth avenue and 20th street last night was responsible for the wrecking of the cab and the injury of its four occupants. Both claimed the right of wav, and as the taxicab passed across the tracks it was struck by the car. The occupants of the taxicab—Dr. Seth Brunn, 8. Lloyd Irving, Charles Este, jr., all of Philadelphia and staying at the Hotel Manhattan, and Leonard Snyder, a broker, of No. 319 West 95th street, Manhattan, were thrown to the street, as was McMahon, and all were bruised.

All five of the men lay stunned in the street where they feli. The automobile was completely smashed, the broken pieces being scattered for a score of yards around the scene of the collision. According to the men, when the car—one of the pay-as-you-enter kind—hit them, they had heard no warning bell as they approached the crossing. Commissioner Robert W. Hebbard, of the Depart ment of Charities, who lives near that corner, was among the first of a large crowd which quickly gathered at the scene of the accident, and which by its size hampered the ambulance physicians im their work. He aided in the restoration of the men to consciousness. Mr. Snyder, the host, is a broker. He received a severe shock and a bad cut over the right eye. Lloyd Irving had his left ear torn, Dr. Brunn's left gide was bruised and his left cheek cut, while Mr. Este was cut and bruised. The latter is a wealthy lumber merchant in Philadelphia. They were all on their way to the New York Athletic Club for supper, after a trip through the East Side. The police say that the corner where the col lision occurred being a fire crossing, the motorman should have stopped, which witnesses said he did not do, end which was the reason for the eecond charge, that of reckless driving, being lodged against him. The other charge is assault.

Two ambulances were summoned from Bellevua Hospital, and after 1edical attendance the men went to their hotel. The motorman of the car was amined CATCH BIG HAWK IN WASHINGTON SQ. Wounded Bird Flops On to Park Grass and Rovs Rig Up a Sideshow. A hen hawk measuring nearly five feet from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other was captured by two small boys in Washington Square Park vesteraay. The bird was wounded in the breast, and fioundered helplessly on ths grass. The boys each held a wing, and between them paraded the hawk through the streets in the neighborhood, with an admiring crowd of other boys trailing them. After a time the bird ceased its struggles and dled, but the lads hung tightly to it, and tried in vain to sell it to a taxidermist in Sixth avenue. In adilligar. Place the boys rigged up a sideshow In a packing box, end charged two cents admission. It is thought the bird was responsible for the dis appearance of many pigeons from the tower of Jef ferson Market court, and that the owner of some fiock which the hawk had attacked must have shot it. ev. iUDGE GOTTFRIED KRUEGER HURT.

NEW POLITICAL STORM PHILADELPHIA CHARGES. Mayor's Secretary, Accused by Sen ator McNichol, Sues for Libel. (Rv Telegraph to The Tribune 1 a SEE hte oud hai, See rad Philadelphia, June 2.—State Senator James P. McNichol, head of the large contracting firm and of the Republican organization, declared to-day that Max Kauffman, secretary to Mayor Rey burn, was the man to whom he paid $10,000 for the exposure of the administration of Mayor Weaver in 1905. McNichol says Kauffman was supposed to be the representative of D. (Clarence Gibboney, the attorney of the l.aw and Order Society, who has made things politically hot in the city for years. Kauffman gave quick and indignant denial to the charge and retained ex-Judge Gordon, a par ticular thorn in the side of the opposition, to bring suit for heavy damages for libel against McNichol and to look after his criminal prose cution. Notice of the criminal charge was at once served upon the contractor-politician, and he will probably enter bail to-morrow morning. It is now regarded as probable that there will be a break in the organization between Mec Nichol and Israel W. Durham, and that Rey burn, who appointed Kauffman as his secretary immediately after his inauguration, will stand by Durham, who is sald to have had no knowl edge of who got the $10,000 McNichol says he furnished. Gibboney is also expected to sue McNichol for damages, as he declares that he never had the remotest knowledge of the deal, and that if any one approached McNichol on the subject it was without authority from him or the society. The whole controversy has ra‘sed a storm about the itv DAYLIGHT BURGLARIES. Robbers Tale Booty from Inhabited Houses in Bags. I By Telexraph to The Tribune 1 Hackensack, N.

I ALLISON SEEMS ELECTED. Iowa Returns Scattering, However, and Cummins Forces Confident. [Pv Telegraph to The Tribune.’ BY ejegrapil tO 1 0C ITIDUAC. Des Moines, Iowa, June 2.—At 11 o'clock to night Chairman Adams of the Allison executive committee at Dubuque said that while the re turns from to-day’s primary election received up to that hour were scattering. yet in nearly every instance the estimates made by the committee were being exceeded, and he believed complete returns would show Allison's nomination by a substantial majority. At midnight the returns indicate that Senator Allison has received a majority of the vote, and that Carroll and other candidates on the “stand pat’ state ticket are also nominated. The Alli son district headquarters in this city claim at midnight the success of Senator Allison by 15. 000 to 20,000 majority. The Cummins managers, hov. ver, do not concede the success of Senator Allison. They say that they have not heard from enough precincts to make any figures, but that the Cummins vote is growing, and they be lieve that the later returns will show his nomi nation.

i

Estimated majorities in thirty-eight out of ninety-nine counties give Allison 16,500 and Cummins 7.5300, or a net majority for Allison over one-third of the state of 9,000. The returns are of a scattering nature, however, and outside of Polk County few of the Cummins strongholds have been heard from. Estimates from forty-three counties received up to midnight given Allison 11.500 majority over Cummins. Chairman Adams says that Allison will have at least 200) majority in Yhe state.

PL. {TES FLY AT I. {L.LDORF. Waiter's Head Used as Target by an, Angry “Omnibus.” Early diners in the Palm Room at the Waldorf last night were startled by a commotion in the pantry adjoining, in which the crash of china ww -e was mixed with wild yells as Giuseppl Corsi, eighteen vears of age. of No. 200 West 20th street, an “omnibus,” used Carl Chevalier, a waiter, of No. 136 East 40th street, as a target. The house detective found Chevalier lying on the floor, surrounded by a pile of broken china and the remains of a dinner. Corsi was standing over him with a large dinner plate in his hand. Dr. Adams, the house physician, dressed three scalp wounds on Chevalier’s head. Chevalier sald Corsi, seizing half a dozen din ner plates from a table, began hurling them at him. Chevalier dodged the missiles until a plate caught him square on the nose, Then he dropped the loaded tray. Just tn show that it was no ac cident, Corsi landed two more plates on the waiter’s head.

Corsi was arrested for assault and went to the West 30th street police station. HER DIAMONDS STOLEN Magistrate's Wife Had Left Them in a Teanot—V alued at *;.000.

That the Wabash-Pittsburg properties are absolutely worthless to the Goulds without an outlet to the Atlantic seaboard, but that the same would be of great worth to both the Steel corporation and the Jones Laughlin interests as outlets to the West and to the ore districts of the lake region is assured. The corporation has within the last few vears permitted the Wabash to lay racks to all its Pittsburg connections, while evidently in pos session of the knowledge that the Wabash Pittsburg Terminal would not be in a position to handle the tonnage offered. At the same time, the Jones Laughlin interests have sur veyed there lines to the lakes, but would likely grasp at an opportunity to get a road already made.

TALK OF SECOND PLACE MAN TO RUN WITH TAFT. Washington Picks Fairbanks or Cortelyou, New Yorkers San. Representatives Parsons and Bennet returned from Washington yesterday. bringing the news that Vice-President Fairbanks and Seecrstarv Cortelyon are the leading, candidates. so far as Washington is concerned, for the VicePresi dential nomination. They also brought the news that Senator Henry Cabot Lodge is to be the permanent chairman of the Chicago conventiop. Messrs. Parsons and Bennet are close per~ sonal friends of the President and the admin istration leaders, and the news they brought. greatly interested local Republicans last night. Assuming that the choice for second place les between the Vice-President and the Secretary of the Treasury, the booms of Representative James S. Sherman and Timothy L. Woodruff ars shelved for the time being. Mr. Sherman said the other day that so long as Governor Hughes was a candidate for the first place on the ticket he was for him, and that talk of himself for the second place was, therefore, out of the question. When Representative Bennet was asked about the Vice-Presidential situation, last night he said: “The leading candidates seem to be Fairbanks and Cortelyou. This seems to be the opinion of the politicians in Washington. There is one thing about it, however, that should be dis tincily Kept in mind, and that is that President Roosevelt is not taking a hard in the shaping of tendencies leading to the naming of the candi date for Vice-President. He leaving it abso lutely alone. The choice is an open one, and the most available man doubtless will be named. is “It is obvious that either Fairbanks or Cor telvou would be a strong candidate. New York and Indiana are generally classed as doubtful states. While the Republicans in recent years have had no trouble in carrying them by larg= pluralities there is reason for assuming that each state will be a battleground this fall. “I think it is no secret by this time that tha platform is being thoroughly discussed by tha friends of the President and Secretary Taft, and it doubtless is true that the platform will cor rectly represent their views on governmental policies.” “What about Representative Sherman for the second place on the ticket?” he was asked. “There is no question at all about the great popularity of the Congressman from Utica,” sald Mr. Bennet, “but it also is true that the leading candidates for the second place on the ticket ars the men already referred to.” “What is there in the suggestion that Senator Crane, who seems to be slated for the chairman ship of the national committee, is not an enthu siastic Taft man?” “Senator Crane is a very good friend of tha Secretary,” said Mr. Bennet. “For certain rea. sons he has not been what vou might style am enthusiastic boomer of the Secretary for Presi. dent, but he is very friendly toward him. think there is little doubt about Mr. Crane being the next national chairman. He is a cool, far sighted man, and will be efficient if chosen for that exalted station.” MANY ASPIRE TO PLACE. Vice-Presidential Booms Spring Up in Every Direction. ATER JA «Ea ama a Washington, June Z2Z.—Interest in the Viee Presidential nomination has increased rapidly in the last few days, and several new candidates have been entered in the race by their admiring friends. John Hays Hammond, mining expert, and said t- be the highest salaried man in the world, voluntarily entered his name in the lists to-day, and members of the New York delega tion in Congress have started a boom for J. Rloat Fassett, Representative of the 334 Dis trict. This makes three New Yorkers in tha field. George B. Cortelyou, James S. Sherman and J. Sloat Fassett. From the West thera comes news that two en tries have been made, one being Jonathan P. Dolliver, junior Senator from Jowa, and the other Frank B. Kellogg, “trust buster in ordi narv” to the present administration, and prose cutor in particular of the Standard Oil Company, the New York Central Railroad and other cor porations. The vocates of the renomination of Vice President Fairbanks are by no means inactive and it is stretching a peint to say that the Hoosier statesman is out of the race, although the increased demand for the second place om the ticket wiih Secretary Taft does have a ten dency to depreciate the stock of the present oc cupant of the Senate rostrum. In the opinion of some astute politicians the naming of citizens of two adjoining states would not be the wisest politics, vhile the popular association of Mr. Fairbanks with the reactionary faction of the party is held to be against him.

A rumor in circulation to-day that the pomi nation would go west of the Mississippl gave something of an impetus to ths Delliver stock and also brought out the name of Frank Kel logg, who, by the way, is national committee. man from Minnesota as well as a renownad “trust buster.” Tha California men ares also in timating that if a genuine Westerner is wanted they have a suitable entry in the person of George A. Knight! than whom they maintain there is no more effactive man on the stump. It is generally admitted that should any ons of the Vice-Presidential entries obtain the in dorsement of President Roosevelt he would tm r ediately become a safe bet, but the President gives no indication of a desire to indorse any man for second place, and as long as he main tains that attitude the fleld is precbably the saf¢-t ret. The New Yorkers, with the peossibie excep tion of Secretary Cortelyou, are somewhat ham pered by the fact that they are committed to the support of Governor Hughes, and must stand loy: by their candidate as long as he is in the race. There Is little doubt, however, in the minds of politicians in Washington that both Mr. Sherman and Mr. Fassett would be found in a highly receptive frame of mind should it be come apparent that Mr. Hughes was no longer in the race for first place. Should any man get the support of the New York delegation he would be likely to cut quite a figure in the con vention. The obv. usly increasing desire to obtain the nomination for second place by a number of candidates is regarded as an excellent sign, for it not enly demonstrates conclusively that there is no longer any question in the minds of men amply capable of forecasting t“2 future regard ing the nomination of Secretary Taft, but is re garded as demonstrating the confidence of a number of capable politicians that Mr. Taft wil} be elected. fecretary Taft and Wade H. Ellis, Attorsey General of Ohio, have had some further confer ences to-day, although the greater part of ths Secretary's day was devoted to the Clenfusgos IFrom Tha Tribune Rureau

The question of a chairman of the national committee has also been discussed in Washing ton in the last two days, but no conclusion has been reached. The names of Senator Crane, of Massachusetts; Postmaster General Meyer, of the same state; Secretary Cortelyou and Frank HH. Bitchcock have all been under disc: ssion, “but i: is not improbable that the Taft forces will be disposed to defer somewhat in this mat ter to the judgment of the members of the na tional committee itself. It is predicted in some quarters that the national committee will sub mit the name of Harry New, the present chair man, and if they do it will doubtless receive the most careful consideration. Frank H. Hitchcock, Bastern manager for Judge Taft, left Washington for Chicago to day, accompanied by an attorney and a Stenog rapher. Mr. Hitchcock will nct open Taft head quarters in Chicago until some time next week. He takes the ground that &s the duties of the national committee at its coming meeting will 1 of an essentially judicial character it would be at least unseemly to open headquarters, bring large force of Taft workers to the scene and thus, perhaps, appear to seek to influence the decisi the committee, and Secretary Taft is in entire sympathy with tnis view. Mr. Hitchoock and an attorney will represent the Becretary’s interests before the national commit tee during the hearing of contests and will sup port the T. ielegates in every proper manner. Toward the latter part of next week the Taft headquarters will be opened under Messrs. Hitchcock and Vorys, and Charles G. Phelps, at the Washington office, will join Mr. Hitch cock. Later on, but before the convention con wvenes, James Williams, now in charge of the Washington headquarters, will also go to Chi cago and help in the work. PLANS FOR REPUBLICAN DELEGATES General Woodford and Seth Low Not to Go to Chicago on Special Train.

Portland, Or-., June 2—With the exception of the Tnited States “Scrutor, the entire Republican state ticket won nf “the state election yesterday.

Already there is talk of defection from the ranks of the “Statement No. 1" legislators, and it is not jmpossible that in the seven months intervening between mow and the date of the next session of tha l.egislature some plan may be devised to de feat Chamberlain and send a Republican to the Senate.

OURT SUSTAINS HAHN.|FOELKER STILL IN BED. COURT SUSTAINS HAH! v. ee County Committee Cannot Unseat Delegate with Election Certificate. Albany, June 2.—A county committees of a politi cal organization has not the right to unseat dele gates elected at primaries, if the delegates have received a certificate of election from a board of election. This is the effect of a unanimous de cision handed down to-day, without an opinion, by the Court of Appeals, in which it orders reinstated eighteen members of the New York Republican County Committee who were dropped from the membership roil The action was begun by the unseated delegates, headed by John J. Hahn, who secured an order, directing that a peremptory writ ‘'of mandamus be issued to restore them to membership in the com mittee. This order was affirmed by the Appellate Devision, 1st Department, and an appeal taken to the Court of Appeals. The delegates were unseated after the committee on contested seats of the county committee had re ported that the election of Hahn and his colleagues was accompanied by “fraud, bribery and intimida tion.” Hahn and his associates, it appeared, were, on the face of the returns, elected at the primaries in the 13th Assembly District, New York, in Sep tember, 1906, and subsequently received certificates of election from the Board of Elections. A contest was made in the county committee by John J. Far rell and a rival set of delegates, who were subse quently seated. In its opinion sustaining the peremptory writ of mandamus the Appellate Division stated that the main question involved was whether a certificate of a board of election is conclusive or can be set aside by a political committee. The judges of the Court of Appeals sitting in this case were Chief Judge Callen and Judges Gray, Vann, Werner, W. Bartlett, Hiscock and Chase. Mr. Hahn was elected in the fall primaries of 1907, and took his seat, but he was defeated in the spring primaries this year. He is an antiPar SONS man. MARYLAND CONTEST FOR BRYAN.

ARKANSAS INSTRUCTS FOR BRYAN. Senator Jeff Davis Gets Only 183 Out of 593 Votes for Delesate-at-Large. Little Rock, Ark., June 2.—Before the Democratic State Convention here to-day a resolution was presented binding the delegates to the Denver convention to support Bryan as a unit as long as his name was before the convention. Objection was made to this, but the motion carried by a large majority. A resolution providing for stata wide prohibition was presented by the Rev. W. T. Amis, of Hot Springs, but it received such a small support that it was -sent to the committee on resolutions, which 4s taken to mean its certain death. To-morrow the result of the primaries for state officers will be ratified, a platform adopted and National Committeeman elected. The delegates-at-large to the National Conven tion follow: United States Senator James P. Clarke, George W. Donaghey, Democratic nominee for Governor; O. C. Ludwig, Secretary of State, and James HH.

BRYAN MEETS RECEPTION COMMITTEE Amusing Incident of Nebraska Tour—Tells of His Fame as “Bov Orator.” Scott's Bluff, Neb, June 2.—Willlam J. Bryan delivered his first speech to-day at Bridgeport, speaking for an hour, particularly on financial is sues, and taking occasion incidentally to speak of his former experiences in this part of the state. “lI was once known as the boy orator of the Platte,” he said, “and I am particularly interested in coming to this section, which is near the head waters cof that river.” An incident occurred in connection with the ‘Bridgeport meeting which gave Mr. Bryan a hearty laugh at the expense of the arrangements commit tee About twenty members of the committee went to Alliance on Monday night to greet his train and accompany him to Bridgeport. The train left Al liance at 3 o'clock this morning. Through a mis understanding the hote! proprieter failed to wake them up. Mr. Bryan, a member of the committes who did not retire at all and a newspaper man were the only members of the party of twenty five who caught the train. Reaching Bridgeport, the train stopped at the water tank, but failed to stop at the station, past which tke trio were car ried a mile. They had to walk back to town. Tha members of the committee caught the next train, and Mr. Bryan met them at the station in their own town. Leaving Bridgeport at 9 o'clock, the trip to Scott's Bluff, where one of the chief addresses of the day was delivered, was made up the Platts Valley. Shortly after neon the party started across the country in automobiles for Kimball, sixty-five miles away. LOUISIANA SENTIMENT FOR BRYAN.

RIVAL INCORPORATED. NEW-YO&® DAILY TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1908. NEW-YOixx DAILY TRIBUNE FOELKER STILL IN BED. Hopes to Get to Albany Next Week —Will Aid Hughes. Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 2.—Although still a sick man and confined to his bed, State Senator Otto G. Foelker toid a representative of The Tribune to-day that he would make an effort next week, if able, to visit Albany and take part in the legislative busi ness, He said that he did not see how he could get out for two weeks, but Dr. N. Murphy, his attending physician, asserted that he would accbm pany the Senator to Albany the latter part of next week if the patient was able to take the trip. “What is your attitude toward the measures pro posed by Governor Hughes?” the reporter asked. “I have not changed my mind at all,” said the Senator, as he lay in bed. “If I were to change ‘my mind regarding the support I have tendered Governor Hughes, I would have done so during the regular session, and not at this late day. I am still for the Governor and his recommendations, and will do ail in my power to help get them through. TI realize that it will be some days before I will be able to get out, but Dr. Murphy has promised me that he will accompany me to Al bany, if necessary, the latter part of next week in order that I may attend the special session before an adjournment is taken.” Senator Foelker has grown somewhat emaciated since his confinement to his bed, and he is still far from well. The stitches were taken out of his wound only last Saturday, and it is healing well, but he says he is feeling considerable pain, and is Just beginning to take solid food. Some stomach trouble has developed during the last few days, but he thinks this ailment will be rapidly eliminated. At times the Senator is extremely nervous and only last night he thought he heard burglars in the Bodensteln homestead, where he is ill. At his request the members of the household made a thorough search of the premises, but no one was found. Insinuations that have been made both publicly and privately have tended to aggravare his nervousness and retard his progress toward recovery, Senator Foelker made a vigorous de nial of reports that a large loan had been made to him, and he also denied the $30,000 mortgage story that has been brought to his notice. “I have always been for the Governor and his anti-racetrack gambling measures and intend to stand by him to the end,” said the Senator. “If you get to Albany next week, there are good prospects for the passing o fthe Annew-Hart bills, are there not?” asked the reporter. “With my vote and that of Senator Wallace and with the votes of those who before voted in the affirmative, the measures could be passed, I suppose all of those who before voted in the affirm ative will do so again. I have leard mentioned the names of one or two Senators who had talked of changing their votes, but I do not believe the stories are true. It looks to me as if the bills would be passed if I can get to Albany next week.” It is understood here that Governor Hughes will not submit his recommendations for the passage of the anti-racetrack bills on Monday next, and that the Governor's recommendations will not be made until Senator Foelker is able to return to the Senate. The latter is being kept posted on Albany affairs and he is in complete touch with legislative matters. Dr. Murphy is of the opinion that there is a 200d chance for the Senator to make the trip to Albany some time next week, but not by Mon day. WALLACE'S CAMPAIGN EXPENSES. Albany, June 2.—According to a statement filed with the Secretary of State to-day by Carl E. Tucker, treasurer of the Republican County Com mittee of Niagara County, the campaign of Sen ator Willlam C. Wallace in Niagara County cost the organization $1,655. This was contributed in the following amounts: General Stewart L. Woodford, $600; F. C. Stevens, Scperintendent of Public Works, $80; William C. Wallace, $300; Congressman Peter A. Porter, $125, and the Anti-Racetrack Gambling Association £20 1) TULLY WON'T DESERT GOVERNOR. Buffaio, June 2.—A ‘special dispatch to “The News” from Corning says: “You can say for me,” said Senator William J. Tully, of Corning, to-day, “that the story of my resignation, to take effect in such a way as to embarrass Governor Hughes and perhaps defeat the passage of the anti-gambling bill, is pure falsehood. I shall not run away from this issue nor evade it in any way, but I shall be in my seat and shall vote for the bill whenever ihe proper opportunity is given to do =o. You cennot make this statement any too strong ito suit me.”

MANUAL TRAINING DEPARTMENT ASKED. Albany, June 2.—In accordance with the new law permitting localities to establish trade and indus trial schools, Commissioner Draper of the State Department of IZducation has asked the State Civil Service Commission to create a department of manual training in the education department, to have supervision over the trade and industrial schools which may be created under the new law by the localities.

Albany, June 2.—The Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment of the courts below in setting aside a decision of the old State Railroad Commission, which would have authorized the Northern New York Railroad Company to construct a line in Otsego County. Bishop Henry C. Potter and other New Yorkers who have summer homes along the proposed route opposed the construction of the road. NEGRO COACHMAN SENT TO BELLEVUE. Once Arrested After Threats Against Miss Louise Corwith. Parker Howard, a negro, formerly employed as coachman by Henry N. Corwith, at his country home in Bridgehampton, Long Island, was com mitted to Bellevue Hospital yesterday for examina tion as ic his sanity, by Magistrate Steinert, in the Essex Market court. Frederick H, Brown, of No. 2225 83d street, Brooklyn, swore that the negro was of unsound mind and imagined he was being pur sued by persons intending to kill him. Great efforts were made by all concerned to keep the matter quiet. Howard was arrested in Christo pher street, in the Jefferson Market court district, but for some reason was taken before Magistrate Steinert instead of Magistrate Morse. Howard is the negro who was arrested a little more than a year ago And sentenced to one year in prison for carrying a loaded revolver. He told the patrolman hie had the gun to kill Mr. Corwith’s daughter, Miss Louise Corwith. He had written annoying letters to her also, it was alleged, and it is thought he has been annoying Miss Corwith again. He has been out of prison since March 15. PICKPOCKET LEAPS FROM ROOF. To avoid arrest vesterday Abraham Cohen, eigh teen years old, of No. 28 Lorimer streat, Williams burg, jumped from the roof of the four story tene ment house at No. 38 Varet street, and was taken to St. Catharine’s Hospital in a dying condition. He has a .adly broken skull, besides internal in juries. David ILabitz, a manufacturing tailor, of No. 24 Manhattan avenue, while on his way to de posit some checks and drafts, stopped to speak to a friend at Manhattan avenue and Varet street. The bankbook stuck out of his pocket. Cohen grabbed the book, and Labitz gave chase, a crowd joining him in pursuit. Policeman Michaels, of the Stagg street station, was rapidly overhauling Cohen, when the latter ran into the tenement house and up to the roof. Cohen tried to jump to the fire escape at the fourth floor, but struck the edge of the railing instead. As he plunged downward his body struck several clothes lines, which broke his fall and saved him from being instantly killed. The bankbook, thrown away in the chase, was recovered.

An extradition treaty between the United States and Honduras is now being negotiated, and while this treaty cannot be approved in time to govern in the present instance, the fact of its considera tien is taken to show the disposition toward ex tradition entertained by the two governments. A second warrant for the arrest of Francis G. Bailey, president of the defunct Export Shipping Company, was issued yesterday by Magistrate Wahle, in the Tombs court. The complaint was made by the Star Drill Machine Company, and charges the larceny of drills and machines valued at 33,200. Mr. Nott, Assistant District Attorney, ap plied for the warrant. The latest news of the Goldsboro and Bailey is ‘from Puerto Cortez, Honduras, saying that the name of the vessel was changed to Atlantida, and that the cargo, consisting of merchandise and ma chinery obtained under false pretences from Amer fean manufacturers, was discharged at Tela. The Americans reported to be aboard are believed to be Francis G. Bailey and A. W. Bailey, his brother. Tt was learned in this city vesterday that the two children of F. G. Bailey, who were at first sup posed to be with their father, are staying with his sister at No. 1525 Avenue H, Flatbush. Bailey could have chosen no more dangerous port of landing for his purpose than Tela. The com mandant of the port and collector of customs of Tela is Colonel Carlos Volet, an American citi zen and formerly of this city. He was a member of the 23d Regiment of Brooklyn and one of the founders of Troop C. Colonel Volet is president of the Atlantida Banana and Rubber Company of Tela, and it is pointed out that even in the absence of an extra dition treaty between the I'nited States and Hon duras he will hardly permit American interests to suffer in the case of the Goldsboro. Atlantida, the new name of the latter vessel, is taken from one of the states of the republic, it was learned yesterday that Bailey tried to land the cargo at Pue:to Cortez free of duty, de claring to the authorities that he intended estab lishing an American colony in the country and that the Goldshoro’s cargo was to he used in that con nection. But the Honduran officials refused to grant the request. Jacob Fried, of counsel for the receivers of the Export Shipping Company, said that the records show that the draft-kiting which Balley is accused of was begun some time in Feb ruary. In April Bailey changed the entire per sonnel of his office, except the stenographer, so that there would be nobedy in his employ who would know too much of his peculiar methods of conduct ing the affairs of thie company. He had corre spondents or firms doing business in this market through his office in nearly every country of the world, including India, Spain, Portugal, Denmark and Barbadoes.

Speaking of the escape of Bailey with his loot, A. Parker Nevin, *counsel for the National Associa tion of Manufacturers, said yesterday: “No plan was ever worked out more skilfully. The people who went away with the Goldsboro knew that there was no extradition treaty with Honduras. No mat ter if a warrant is issued in the police court and an indictment is found by the grand jury it is im possible to get Bailey out of Honduras if he does not want to come. Every move he has made has been carefully studied and he is surrounded by every legal protection that it is possible to im agine. If Bailey is ever brought back to the United States it will be after a legal battle that will pass into history, and the fight will be one that will be watched by the whole legal fraternity. At present the location of Mr. Bailey, if, as re ported, he is in Honduras, places him in a posi tion practically impregnable.” LIABILITY ACT VALID IN DISTRICT. Court of Appeals Reverses Decision of Dis trict of Columbia Supreme Court. Washington, June 2.—The employers’ liability act of 1906, which the United States Supreme Court last January held repugnant to the Constitution of the United States and non-enforcable in the states, was to-day held constitutional as to the District of Columbia by the Court of Appeals. In an opinion by Chief Justice Shepard the court declares that as the legislative power of Congress is plenary for the District, its power extends to the regulation of all commerce of whatsoever nature that may be carried on within its boundaries. The decision was rendered on the appeal of Christiana Hyde, administratrix of Richard Hyde, who sued the Southern Railway Company to re cover $20,000 for the death of Hyde, an emplove of the company. The District Supreme Court sus tained a demurrer by the company, following the United States Supreme Court deeision. The Appel Jate Court reverses the action of the lower court and remands the case for further proceedings. WANT CUBA TO BUILD WATERWORKS. White House Conference on Cienfuegos Matter—Taft to Draw Un Pronosal Washington, June 2.—After’ a long conference at the White House to-day between the President, Secretaries Root and Taft, General Edwards and Colonel McIntyre, of the insular bureau, it was announced that Secretary Taft would draw up a proposal for submission to the preper Cuban au thorities that the Cuban government shall construct the Cienfuegos waterworks. This public work has been the subject of much consideration and of several futile attempts at adjustment. A contract for the construction of the water works was granted to the Reilly Contracting Com pany, of New York, and it is this contract over which the difficulty has arisen, and which, it wil] now be proposed, shall be taken over by the Cuban government. Just what the terms of the proposi tion will be cannot be said. GOVERNMENT DEMANDS REPAYMENT. Files Complaint Against Express Companies for Alleged Overcharge of $14 99 Washington, June 2.—A complaint, unique in the annals of the Interstate Commerce Commission, was filed to-day. It is entitled “The United States agalnst the Adams Express Company and the Northern Pacific Express Company.” The com plaint is entered by Becretary Metcalf and is a protest against what is termed the excessive, un reasonable and unjust charges on naval stores be tween Washington and Bremerton, State of Wash ington. It appears that certain naval supplies were shipped by express from Washington to Bremer ton on which the charge was $117 a hundred pounds. The complaint alleges that the charge should have been not more than $108 a hundred pounds, and the repayment of $1499 is demanded on the shipment. ACQUIT PHILIP OF MACABOY MIURPER washington, June 2 —-Gaston P.

President's Letter Checked West! Vireinia Renomination Move. Wasu.ngton, June 2.—Because President Roose velt’s latest declaration, that “no friend of mine” will continue efforts to renominate the President, was written to one of West Virginia's delegates fo the Chicago convention for the specific purpose of heading off whet appeared to be a plan among cer tain delegates from that state to work for Mr. Roosevelt's renomination, the general publication of the letter is regarded as not expedient or de sirable. More than this, the President's friends, echoing his sentiments, say that the President has ex pressed himself to the country on this subject in terms which admit of no uncertainty. For this rea on it is explained that no publicity will be given the letter to the President's personal friend in West Virginia. That the missive has accomplished the purpose for which it was written is said to bs the fart DESTROY EAST FRONT OF TREASURY Granite Like That Forming Rest of Build ine Will Replace “Dead” Sandstone. f¥rom The Tribune Bureau A A i AT a al Washington, June 2.—Wreckers are tearing away the east front of the Treasury Building, and in a few days the familiar sandstone columns will be taken down and consigned to the rock pile. Some time in the fall the old pillars will be replaced by columns of granite of the same size and shape, and the historic building will present {itself to the nation in a dress that will look as if it had just come from the cleaner’s. When the work is com pleted about $330,000 will have been expended, and the structure will be good to last for centuries. “The principal reason the sandstone columns must be replaced,” said James Knox Taylor, super vising architect of the Treasury, “is that the stone is ‘dead.’ All the life has gone out of it, and it is only a question of time when it would all go to pieces. It may sound odd to say that a stone is dead, hut it is a faet, nevertheless, that stone has life and can be killed. You can kill a block of granite by beating upon it with a hammer—not hard enough to break it to pieces, understand—and after it has received that beating it will be useless; the least strain placed upon it will cause it to dis integrate. It is so with the sandstone columns in the Treasury. The eighty-odd years of wind and storm: have killed tha stones and they are un safe. “The granite columns that we ars to get from New Hampshire will be brought to Washington by rail. The granita that we got from Maine in the 50's came by barge, and after the pieces were landed on the Potomac's bank, somewhera near Georgetown, they were hanled to tha building aite by ox teams.” DENIES DE CHAULNES USED DRUGS Mr. Shonts Says He Was Kneeling in Prayer When He Died. Theodore P. Shonts, father of the widowed Duch ess de Chaulnes, said on his arrival here yester day on the steamship Kronprinzessin Cecilie that from the time of her husband's sudden death, up to a week ago, his daughter Theodora's health had been almost despaired of. She is now beginning to recover, he said, from the shock of the duke's death, but intimated that it would be some time before che would be able to return to America. In speaking of the duke’'s death Mr. Shonts said he was kneeling in prayer with his wife just be fore they retired, when he was attacked by heart disease. He strongly denounced all the stories of his son-in-law having used opiates up to the time of his death.

On the Kronprinzessin also was Henry W. Sav age, the theatrical manager, who brought with him works of four foreign composers—Franz Lehar, Oscar Straus, Edmund Eysler and Leo Fall MAY BRING TRUELSON TO LAPORTE. Sheriff Smutzer Says Confession Is a Re markable Document—Twa Bodies Laporte, Ind., June 2. —Sheriff Smutzer said to day that only a svropsis of the confession made by Julius G. Truelson, of New York, who is now in jail in Vernon, Tex., has been made public. “The complete confession,” said Sheriff Smutzer, “covers nineteen typewritten pages, and goes into the most minute details of Truelson's career, as he tells it, from 188 to the present time. Truelson told things that could only be told by a person actually familiar with them. He has defined the Gunness house in detail, and I do not see how he could have done that unless he had been there. “I don’t say that I belleve the confession, for it is a queer composition, but we may bring him to Laporte to test him on one or two points, including the location of the two bodies which he sald were buried near the railroad track. No bodies have been found there, although we have dug in several places, but Truelson says he can direct us to the spot.” TRIAL OF SOLDIERS IN CUBA Captain Gives Testimony Tending to Dis credit Storv of Fearnlv. Havana, June 2.—The special military court at Camp Columbia continued the trial to-day of the American soldiers, Corporal Cooper and Private Gwinnell, on ths charge of having murdered two Cuban fishermen. Private Fearnly, who has turned state's evidence in the case, was subjected to-day to a vigorous cross-examination by Lieutenant Davis and Attorney Durant, who represent the prisoners, but his testimony was unshaken. Captain Frank Parker, 1lth Cavalry, gave testi mony damaging to the defence. He said that Cooper and Gwinnell, after two days’ absence from camp, returned and reported that they had gone to the town of Coloma with Fearnly, intending later td return to camp. They hired a sailboat, on which, after a dispute over money, the fishermen drew knives and the soldiers used their pistols in self-defence. Captain Parker said that Fearnly had repeated this fiory. but that eon being taken to the scene of the crime by Parker, who accused him of lying and told him that it was impossible «0 belleve that two Cubans would attack three armed American soldiers, he broke down, and. weeping, sald that Cooper and Gwinnell had shot the Cubans in cold biocod, intending to make their escape from Cuba. The wind fell, however, imme diately after that, and they were compelled to paddle the boat ashore and return to camp, agree ing to unite in telling the story devised by (Cooner SIR ROBERT REID SERIOUSLY 111 Montreal, June 2.—Sir Robert Reid, promoter and chief proprietor of the Newfoundland Railway, is dangerously ill at his home In this city.

Costa Rica, June I —-Ambassadors Buchanan and Creel, the high commissioners repre. genting the United States and Mexico, respecs tively, at the Central American Court of Justis recently opened at Cartago, have received many courtesies from the Costa Rican government and leading citizens in the last week. In return they gave a dinner last evening, at which the President of the republic, Gonzales Viquez, the ministers and many prominent men were present. Mr. Buchanan's speeches have caused a strong feeling of sympathy and good will. The manner in which he discharged his mission has had the effect of greatly increasing the respect and appreciation of Costa Ricans and of the representatives of the other Central American republics for the United States government and people. Ambassador Creel also made a good impression bv his speeches. The officers and crew of the [United States cruiser Des Moines wers warmly welcomed at Sam José, the people vying with each other in showing their hospitality to the visitors. Ambassadors Buchanan and Creel left here this morning for Port Limon. accompanied by President Viquez, Seflor Anaerson, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Sefior Valverde, tha Minister of the In terior, as well as by a large contingent of public officials and citizens.

RN water system case. Tt seems now to be pretty well established that when Mr. Elis goes to Chicago he will take with him the framework of the platform, although the finishing ef the pianks wi Jdoubtle: be left toc the members of the committee on resoluticns. The question of a chairman of the national committee has also been discussed in Washing ton in the last two days, but no conclusion has been reached. The names of Senator Crane, of Massachusetts; Postmaster General Mever, of the same state; Secretary Corteiyou and Frank Hitchcock have al! been under disc: ssion, “but §t is mot improbable that the Taft forces wiil be disposed to defer semewhat in this mat ter to the judgment of the members of the na tional committee itself. It is predicted in some quarters that the national committee will sub mit the name of Harry New, the present chair man, and if they do it will doubtless receive the most careful consideration. Frank H. Hitchcock, astern manager for Judge Taft, left Washington for Chicago to day, accompanied by an attorney and a Stenog rapher. Mr. Hitchcock will not open Taft head quarters in Chicage until some time next week. He takes the ground that as the duties of the national committee at its coming meeting will 1 of an essentially judicial character It would be at least unseemly to open headquarters, bring a large force of Taft workers to the scene and thus, perhaps, appear tc seek to influence the decisi the committee, and Secretary Taft is in entire sympathy with this view. Mr. Hitchcock and an attorney will represent the Becretary’s interests before the national commit tee during the hearing of contests and will sup port the T. ielegates in every proper manner, Toward the latter part of next week the Taft headquarters will be opened under Messrs. Hitchoock and Vorys, and Charles G. Phelps, at the Washington office, will join Mr. Hitch cock. Later on, but before the convention con wvenes, James 8 Williams, now in charge of the Washing*~n headquarters, will also go to Chi cago and help in the work. PLANS FOR REPUBLICAN DELEGATES.

Railroads Would Buy Equi pment Without Giving Notice. Decided opposition was expressed yesterday to the suggestion of the Public Service Commission that every street railroad corporation in New York City give notice to that body of its intention to purchase cars or other equipment. The lawyers and officials of the companies who wers present at tha hearing before Commissioner Malithie yesterday said such a requirement would put them at the mercy of manufacturers of cars and fenders and brakes, in fact of any device or part of equipment that might meet with the approval of the commis sion.

They contended that if they were compelled to give the commission notice of all their purchases it would mean that the manufacturers could have advance information of their intentions and that the prices would be jumped up from 15 per cent to 20 per cent. Moreover, if the commission decided to approve certain type of car or fender it would cut off all competition, and leave the companies at the mercy of the lucky manufacturer who held the patent on the particular device approved. The receivers for the New York City Railway Com pany and for tke Third Avenue Railroad Company were not represented at the hearing, but representa tives of the Interborough Rapld Transit Company, the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company and the other companies all said they were mystified as to what the commission meant te do, by forcing them to file plans and specifications for equipment in advance of purchase. Commissioner Maltbis assured them that the specifications would not be left lying around for tha prying eyes of intending bidders on the equipment, but would merely be open for the consideration of the commission. This explanation did not satisfy the Interborough officials, who in sisted that the commission could not epprove of purchase of a certain article of equipment without giving the purchaser hearing.

“We want to know what vou rpean by this or der,” said Alfred A. Gardiner, the Interborough’s counsel. “You can't approve of a certain device without giving us a hearing, which would give the manufacturers just the advance information they want. We haven't got to the point yet where such star ehamber proceedings go in this country.” Commissioner Maltble urged Mr. Gardiner to be reasonable: that the commission wanted to serve the companies as well as the public, in saving the former the exira expense of remedying defects in equipment. But Adrian H. Larkin, counsel for the Richmond ILight and Power Company and the Staten Island Midland Railway Company, said his companies were perfectly willing to dispensa with the saving and incur the extra expense of making changes at the commission's orders. Commissioner Maltbie gave no decision in closing the hearing as to what further steps the commis sion would take in compelling the companies to purchass equipment of a standard approved by that rosy

TRIBUNE. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1908. PLATT A DEFENDANT Suit 10 Recover $2,47160 in Pay ment of Wife's Bills. United States &enator Thomas C. Platt was again a defendant in the Supreme Court yesterday be fore Justice Ford and a jury in a suit in which Edgar Joseph, managing clerk of the law firm of Marsh, Winslow Wever, of No. 111 Broadway, is the plaintiff, to recover $2,471 60, which the law firm says it paid for debts contracted by Mrs Lillian Janeway Platt before her marital diffi culties with the Senator had been fixed up by a separation agreement, executed on November 14, 1206. The firm assigned its claim to Joseph. In terest since November 14, 134, is also claimed by the plaintiff. Willlam D. Gaillard appeared for the plaintiff, and Senator Platt was represented by Albert B. Boardman, of O'Brien, Boardman, Platt Little ton. Marsh, Winslow Wever acted as attorneys for Mrs. Platt when she sued Senator Platt for a divorce.

The Senator and his wife separated on Septem ber 20, 1906. Acconiing to ‘the plaintiff Senator Platt was to pay all the bills incurred by his wife prior to their separation. But between the begin ning of the negotiations and the date when the separation agreement was finally signed Mrs. Platt 1an up some other bills, which she insisted the Senator should pay in addition to giving her the sum of $75,000, which she agreed to accept in lieu of a permanent income.

There was a long dispute regarding the payment of these bills, but at last, Marsh, Winslow ‘Wever asserted, an agreement was effected be tween them and ex-Judge Hatch, Senator Platt's attorney, whereby they should pay the bills, ex Judge Hatch promising, they say, that when everything had been settled they would be reim bursed. Mrs. i.llian Janeway Platt was called as a witness for the plaintiff and testified to the cor rectness of the bills. She said she knew nothing about any arrangement between ex-Judge Hatch and her lawyers, but she said she unders¢ood that all her debts up to the date the agreement was signed were to be paid by her husband.

Frank H. Platt, Senator Platt’s son, was a wit ness for his father. lle swore he never heard of any such agreement until three months after the separation agreement had been signed. He said he simply understood that the money Mrs. Platt was to receive was to cover all her debts. He sald Mrs. Platt got $25,000 down and was to be paid $10,000 a year for five years. He said he thought the reason why she got 325,00 as a first payment was to enabla her to pay her outstanding debts. Justice Ford directed the jury to return a sealed verdict this morning. RUNAWAYS ON BRIDGE. Wagon Topples Over on Williams bhureo Structure, Throwing 5 Oud. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Harris, of No. 286 Houston street, and Mr. and Mrs. Max Greenspan and their four-year-old son, of No. 313 Fast Ist street, were in a rurrey which was overturned on the Williams burg Bridge yesterday afternoon. Thay were bound for Coney Island, and had reached the centres of the bridge when the vehicla toppled over and the occupants were thrown to the roadway. The team dragged the overturned carriage for a short dis tance, when the king bolt broke. Then the horses dashed along the roadway, but stopped when they saw the barrier made by the closing of the run away gate. The flva occupants were taken to the bridge po lice station on the Williamsburg side, where they were attended by Dr. Mary Crawford, the ambu lance surgeon of the Williamsburg Hospital. The boy's nose was fractured and the others escaped with torn clothing and some bruises. Shortly after horse attached to a delivery wagon driven by Raymond Phillip, nineteen years old, of No. 8 Flushing avenue, bolted. The ani mal crashed against the runaway gate and was thrown. Phillip and Hyman 8. Klar, twenty vears old, of No. 257 Floyd street, Williamsburg. were thrown from the seat to the roadway, Phillip re ceiving contusions of the right foot and leg and Klar contusions of the head, jaw and right elbow. PLANS FOR STEAMBOAT INSPECTION. Plans for a stringent enforcement of the steam boat inspection law were adopted yesterday at a conference of Assistant Secretary Reynolds, of the Treasury Department; Colonel BE. 8 Fowler, Col lector of the Port, and General James S. Clarkson, Surveyor of the Port. The inspection of pleasure steamboats will begin about June 15 PERUVIAN LAND TITLES.

tFioin ine (rioune purean Washington, June 2 GENERAL SERVICE CORPS.—-The War Depart ment at the next session of Congress will renew its efforts to obtain legislation establishing a general service corps. Such a bill was framed some time ago by the General Staff, and it has been recently reconsidered with a view to improving the situa tion and making such adjustment of the pay of employes as to put thelr compensation upon a foot ing corresponding with the pay of similar labor in civil life. There is great need of a general service corps which shall be permanent in its character and which shall furnish the military astablishment with a class of workers now employed under vari ous branches and with no status other than that of civilian laborers. It is sometimes hard to keep these people in the service because of the outside demands for labor, especially in agricultural sec tions. Members of this corps would have regular pay with rations and quarters and an allowance for clothing, free medical attendance and the priv flege of retirement after thirty years of service. (‘onditions of this sort are expected to be attractive to those who now do not find the service attractive.

CHANGE BOARDS OF VISITORS.—The Navy Department will probably seek next session a change in the composition of the board of visitors at the Naval Academy similar to that provided for West Point by a clause in thes Military Aca demy appropriation bill signed by the President last Thursday. The change was agreed to when some of the members of that board, appointed by the President, including the Vice-President and the Speaker of the House, had reached New York en route to West Point from various sections of the country. As has been said in these dispatches, tha expense incurred by thess board members will not ba. borne by the government. The law is now changed so that the Military Academy board will be made up of members of the House and Senate Military committees. The same sort of board is desired for the Naval Academy, the members to be chosen from the House and Senate Naval com mittees and designated by the respective chairmen, It is desired that the new board visit the Naval Academy during the academic year and, if pos sible, during the session of (‘ongress preliminary to the preparation of that part of the naval appro priation act which provides for the maintenance of the Naval Academy. This would have a bene- ficial effect, since it would place valuable informa-

l} tion in the possession of those who have to do with the appropriations, and the observations of the boards of visitors to the Military and Naval academies would undoubtedly have a direct and salutary influenca upon the development of these institutions.

Funds Provided by Congress and Special Board Will Make New Contract. Washington, June 2.—A special board composed of three naval officers, upon which there will be a representative of the bureau of yards and docks of the Navy Department, will soon be convened at the navy yard at Broekivn to arrange for the lengthening by fifty feet of the drvdock under con struction at that place. This is the structure upon which work was “iro in August of last year on account of the troversy between the Navy Department and Ee en contractor, who was re leased from his o ation to the government. Steps have recently been taken to award a con tract for the compieiion of the dock. with the un derstarding that if ¢engress provided the money there would be an enlargement of the dock. The necessary funds have been provided in the naval appropriation act, and the board ta be detailed will determine upon the basis of the existing contract the extra compensation of ihe dock builder. The enlargement of the dock is important to the repair and equipment facilities of the Brooklyn navy yard, in that it will afford accommodation for the largest battleships and those which may be built in the next few vears, when the development in the art of naval construction is expected to be in the dirse tion of greater displacement. BOY'S BODY TAKEN FROM SEWER. Had Dived Into Excavation After Ball and Was Drowned. Two longshoremen drew from the mouth of a sewer at Joralemon street and the East River, Brooklyn, the body of little Charles Petrie, of No. 15 State street, in the gray dawn of yesterday morning, after an all night's search. The littls fellow. eight years old, had dived into the excava tion there on the previous evening to save a bail with which he and his friends had been playing. and had been lost himself. The current had drawn him into the old sewer. In his dving efforts to escape he had clasped his arms and legs about a pile, and so he was found wedged in by floating pieces of wood. The excavation was.dug by the tunnel bufiders and is now being enlarged for the laying of the two -inch mains that will convey salt water to the auxiliary pumping station of the Fira Department's new high pressure water system. The boys of the neighborhood are great swimmers, and little was thought of Petrie’s action when he dived ints the muddy water after the disappearing ball. When he did not rise to the surface his playmates’ cries brought a crowd of longshoremen to their aid. i Soon several of the men held in reserve at the Amity street police station were on hand to do what they could. The boy's father, mother and sister stood all night long on the banks of the opening.

NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1908. 5 STARVED PUPIL FAINTS x ALL EAST SIDE HUNGERS.

Reports of School Teachers Show Unusual Degree of Misery. The economic condition of the great East Side of Manhattan, recognized ordinarily zs the spot in all New York where the tide of human conditions is &lways at its ebb, is now revealed in an even more basrirending phase than the mere casual investi Eation of the district would indicate existed there. That =choo! children of the Ghetto are literally starving was the story told yesterday and vouchad for as truthful by school officials of the district. Instances were cited of pupils of the public schools fainting in the class from lack of nourishment. A committes whgse aim it will be to work for the amelioration of these conditions has been or ganized and will meet to-day, at which the date for a mass meeting wali be decided upon, from which will emanate an appez! for funds to be used in the astablishment of free diet kitchens. The 28 and 3d school districts are those most affected, and in these districts special com mittees have been appointed, of which Isidor M. Levy and A. A Himlowich, school Inepectors, are members ex-officio. There are eleven schoals in the two districts—four and seven, respectively. The boundaries are: Second District, Bowery, Grand street, Orchard street. Allen street, Rutgers street, Egst River and Canal street: 3d District, Orchard street, Delancey street, Sheriff street, East Broadway, Montgomery street, East River, Rut gers street and Canal street. The existing conditions, it is said, are the resuit of the greatly increased number of unempioved on the East Side, which has been steadily growing in the last three or four months. Thus further in ability of the fathers of families to obtain employ ment has brought the poor of the district to the point of starvation. Most of the families affected are Russian Jems and some Italians, Miss Julia Richman, district school superin tendent, was the first to call public attention to the situation at the monthly meeting of the district school board held at Public School 65, in Fldridge street, on Monday. She reccived at that meeting reports of principals of the different schools under her charge. The rep>:-t of the principal of Schooi in Chrystie streat, showed that in that institution there were twenty-one pupils who were insuth ciently fed. Other principals reported like condi tions in their schools. There was one instance of a boy who had not eaten in two days, while there were many cases where children had gone to schonl in the morning without a mouthful of breakfast, end stili cthers where the pupils did not go home gt the recess hour hecanse they knew there was nn luncheon thers for them. The principals and teachers have done 2ll in their power to relieve tha conditions. hut their effosts have heen meagre com pared with the exigencies of the pressing demands. At the meeting to-day an appeal prodably wili pe sent to the Board of Education for support of the movement in hand. Also, there wili be de cided the date for a mass meeting at the Educa tional Alliance, in Fast Broadway.

CURTISS TO BUTLD NEW AIRSHIP Dr. Alexander Graham Bell Gives Associa +ion’'s Consent for Test. Glenn FH Curtiss was in this city yesterday on his way to Hammendsport, N. Y., from Waehing ton. where he had heen in consultation with Dr. Alexander Graham Rell concerning further experi mental work with a new aeroplane. Mr. Curtiss £8id vesterday that he weuld arrive at Hammonds this morning, and begin at once to build an Po HL plane which will be No. 2 of the Aerial Experi ment Association, of which Dr. Bell is president. He said the machine will be somewhat different from the previcus White Wing, as it will have long body, covered with canvas, at the extreme rear of which will be the tail A 40-horsepower, eight cyiinder, air conled 145-pound motor, designed by Mr. Curtiss, is expected to furnish plenty of power, It will take about three weeks to build the aeroplane and then the experiments will be made. The engineers who will assist Mr. Curtiss are Lieutenant T. Selfridge, of the United States Army; F. W. Baldwin and J. A. D. McCurdy. Mr. Curtiss is the man who made the fastest mile ever travelled by a human being, when, two winters age, at Ormond Beach, Florida, he covered a mile in 26 2-5 seconds on a moter cycle. “I think that perhaps my long experience in get ting over the ground at high speed has helped me ‘4n balancing an aeroplane’ said Mr. Curtiss. In the aeroplane White Wing he made the longest $mitiz! flight of any man in the world—1.07 feet 4r nineteen seconds—on May 22, at Hammendsport. Dr. Bell said: “Mr. Curtiss had perfect control over the ma chine throughout, and the steering was accom plished with ease.” Of course. even the foreign aviators are now making longer flights, but none ©of them—nor, in fact, have the Wright brothers— ever made such distanee as this at their first at tempt at flight. “Jt tends 10 make? a man unafraid of anything <hat has motion 1» ride a motor cycle at the rate ©f 13% miles an hour,” continued Mr. Curtiss. “1 feel hopeful of most satisfactory results at Ham mbndsport with this aeroplane that I shall test out the latter part of the present month.” Dr. Bell expects to be on hand to witness the go ps AE ow TERRA Lights of the STRAY BALLOON ON JERSEY MEADOWS. “Aeronaut wanted’ is a =ign that the police of North Bergen, N.

No qne appeared in court to make a complaint, and they were released. The passenger who sent the werelgss message was F. C. L. Pirkis, a Cambridge University man, who had weathered the fray, which started when Dwyer asked Erie Thornton, a ship broker from Antwerp. te pay a $300 “I O TU” Thornton had given him after losing about $200 in cash. A. B. Ran dolph had lost $200 befere he could catch his breath, and R. C. McLeay, of Oregon, and Harry Stillson Hart had also suffered.

More than a dozen lives were imperilled when the big ocean-going tug C. W. Morse, unable to handle 2 tow of four barges going through Hell Gate to the East River, vesterday afternoon, was in colli sion with the barges and derricks working around the stranded freighter H. AM. Whitney, which sank on the north ledge of Flood Rock, two weeks ago, blocking the centre of the channel Caught in a swift moving current the tug and its tow were sent shooting toward the Whitney. Two divers, who were down in the hold sending up cargo, were unceremoniously hauled to the deck just as a big barge struck a steam derrick which was lashed to the side of the steamer. The big derrick careened on its side, spilling all the salvaged cargo, but the barge continued on its trip, apparently uninjured. The derrick, torn from its lashing, floated down the stream. It was caught opposite the 924 street ferry and towed to Ward's shipyard, on the Astoria shore, where it filled and sank. The Morse belongs to the New York, Ontario Western Rallroad. DROEGE CASE NOT YET DECIDED. Decision Reserved on Application to Remove Magistrate on Charges. Decision was reserved in the case of applica tion of the Bar Association for the removal from office of Magistrate Droege, which was argued yes terday. The Bar Asscociation considered the charges at the request of Mayor McClellan. Mag istrate Droege, according to his accusers, released a woman named Louise Durand on the day, fol lowing the one on which he sentenced her to six months in the workhouse for disorderly conduct. A second charge made in the Bar Association's complaint was that the magistrate had attempted to bribe a newspaper man and a photographer to keep the case hushed up. Howard Taylor, who ap peared for the Bar Association, said that the woman was released after a talk between the mag jstrate and a lawyer who had no connection with the case, and she should have been paroled in stead of being discharged. In this case the pro bation officer was not informed. Magistrate Droege, he said, explained that the woman was well on in vears, but Mr. Taylor said he could not see why “hush money” should be of fered. Mark Alter, a lawyer practising in the mag istmate’'s court, was asked to give the photographer $250, and afterward declared that the whole thing was 2 trap laid to catch Magistrate Droege. Counsel for the magistrate, who was not in court himself. said that the money had been offered in an effort to keep the story from the magistrate's family. His action, he said, was the same as that of other magistrates under the same circumstances, and that he had violated no law. J sol ICE SEEK ALLEGED MURDERER.

WEDNESDAY. JUNE 3. 1908. POSED AS “BIM’S” NEPHEW Newly Made Husband Held on Charee of Forgery. George Farrian, a young man alleged to have cashed checks and contracted various debts, repre senting himself as a member: of the Bimberg family, was held in $2,0% bail in the West Side Court yesterday on a charge of forgery. He was arrested on the complaint of Max Wineburgh, the owner of an automobile garage in West 40th street, to whom Farrian gave a check for $30. The paper was drawn on the “account” of Edward 8. Bimberg in the Colonial Bank and returned as worthless. The voung man sald that he was a nephew of the late Meyer Bimberg, who was known as “Bim, the Button Man." Farrian figured in an after supper marriage on Saturday night, and he told the police that his bride was Emily Sweeney, the daughter of a wealthy Brooklyn contractor. They were married by a Justice of the Peace at Fort Lee, but the young woman says that while they were married the marriage certificate hears false names and ad dresses. Magistrate Corrigan recognized Farrian when he was arraigned and remarked that he had sen tenced him to six months in prison for exactly the same crime before. The check which he gave to Wineburgh in payment for a long automobile rides with a voung woman and her mother was cashed in Brooklyn and Farrian was discharged on that complaint. He was then held on the complaint of William Felton, the manager of another garage, at No. 209 West 4lst street, to whom he gave a check for $50, signing it Edward S. Bimberg. The prisoner reminded the magistrate that on a previ cus occasion he had said that he could not prose cute Farrian for signing the name of a person who did not exist. He admitted that he had cashed the check and was held. He waived examination and was locked up in default of bail

Hazen, in the fedemal court. 8. Wallace Dempsey, in arguing the case for the prosecution, reviewed the charges made against the company, and alleged that the shipments had been sent through over the Pennsylvania, New York Central and Rutland railroads in tank cars The cars, added the prosecutor, were not changed on the way, and in some instances the way bills also remained unchanged. Tha company Is on trial on indictment No. 470, which contains forty counts, the maximum penalty for each being $20,000,

George M. Crossman, chief of the filing division and tariff expert for the Interstate Commerce Commission, was the first witness called. He was questioned and cross-examined as to freight tariffs and certain documentary evidence, This afternoon wos devoted by the prosecution to trying to show that the tariffs of rates for the shipment of oil were placed in conspicuous places, where shippers might readily sea them, sn that thera enuld be no excuse for accepting lower rates, A number of emploves and officials of tha Penn svivania and New York Central railroads wera placed on the stand, and many of theses testified that the tariffs were posted as required by law. Some concessions were mada by the defence, in agreement with tha government's representatives, which will tend to hasten the trial FOR A NATIONAL SANITARY POLICE. States’ Rights and Nation's Health Discussed Before American Medical Association. Chicago, June 2.—Dr. Charles Harrington, of Bos ton, spoke eon ‘“‘Etates’ Rights and the National Health” at. the American Medical Association meeting here to-night, and suggested that the movement for national control of the public health should be focussed either into a department “rep resented in the Cabinet or of a division of an ex isting department, with a commissioner for a chief.” He continued: ts head should be charged with advisory powers in relation to eather departments and to the states, and with supervisory and executive powers in matters pertaining to his own bureaus. He should not attempt to meddle in local mat ters not of national concern nor to encroach upon the duties of other branches of the gov ernment. He should, as occasion requires, draw on the whole scientific world to secure experts for the investigation of large problems of sani tary importance. jnasmuc: as no one man could be expected to conduet so great an establishment with only the advice of his bureau chiefs, and inasmuch as the cordial co-operation of all the states would he absolutely, essential to satisfactory achievement, R— he should? have a national council consisting of one delegate from each state, appointed by the governors or state hoards of health. As a means of carrying out this plan Dr. Har rington suggested the formation qf a national sanitary police system "to suppress the rioting of epidemics when the state is powerless or neglects to act.” He added: 'Jt seems not un reasonable to suggest that the right of the state to be a national health nuisance might properiy be abridged by constitutional amendment giving the central government authority to act for the common good when local neglect or inability makes it imperatively necessary, but enly then.”

Vivisection came in for much attention _to-day, and was the subect of significant action by the governing board of that organization. By unani mous vote the house of delegates approved a recommendation to the board of trustees to cre ate a commiasion the sole duty of which shall be to watch and oppose the enactment of laws in tended to abolish vivisection. While this action was under consideration Dr. W. B. Cannon, chair man of the section on pathology, advocated a campaign of education against opponents of the practice, whom he accused of untruthfulness and ignorance, and in another meeting—that of the section on surgeryv—results of animal experimen tation were being described by Dr. Alexis Carrel, of New York.

This came out in the redirect examination of H. W. Rrown, sud#or of the railway companies.

Robert Beatty, of counsel! for the plaintiffs, asked Mr. Rrown for the exact fignres as to the present difference hetween the $8,000,000 and the amount repaid hy the defendant.

MANY BUYERS FLOCKING TO TOWN. bv Returning Confidence Displayed by Outof Town Merchants. Signs of returning confidence are to be seen on the hotel registers all over the eity, for the buyers from out-of-town firms have heen flocking in of late seemingly on every train. A remarkable in stance of this is at the Hotel Imperial, where from a single St. louis drygoods house twenty buyers are staying. In former vears fifteen buyers from the larger houses in the West were usually the limit to be sent here at one time, and in a Presi dential vear the number was much less, as a rule. In disgussing this point vesterday Frederick 8B. De Berard, statistician of the Merchants’ Associa tion of New York, said it was only in accord with reports from merchants’ associations and business men in many parts of the country. “What it means,” he continued, “is that there i{s not an oversupply of manufactured products in any one locality. Moreover, the sending of so many buyers to the great centres like New York shows that merchants expect a good year.

“Just at present the only point in question is the outcome of the crops. But at this season every year there is the same uncertainty, depending on weather conditions. Somehow, the customary hesi tancy exhibited in an election year has not been so much in evidence, as far as I can see.” SAPPHIRES AND RUBIES STILL SAFE. Dr. Kunz ‘Says Owners Need Not Worry Over Renorted Find of Professor Miethe. According to Dr. George F. Kunz, an autaority on precious stones, connected with the Tiffany company, at Fifth avenue and 37th street, per sons owning rea! sapphires and rubies need have no anxiety over the report from Berlin that Pro fessor Miethe had discovered a method whereby near-sapphires and imitation rubies could be made for about $4 a carat to resemble so perfectly the genuine as to defy detection even by experts.

“An old, old theory. There has never yet been invented a substitute for precious stones that could fool an expert for a moment,” said Dr. Kunz vesterday. ‘This claim is the same as that made in 18% and proved at that time to be foolish. There will never be anything produced by man that can take the place occupied by the precious gems. There is a sentiment felt for them that no substitute, however clever, can inspire. “1t is sometimes true that after every one else has dropped a subject the Germans take it up and think there is a whole lot in it. This idea died over twenty years ago, and it is still dead.”

i EE WATERWAYS COMMISSION MEETS. Buffalo, June 2. The American and Canadian see tions of the International Waterways Commission began an important joint session here to-day.

In Bronx Park the public is now sternly forbidden in four languages to deposit 1ubpish—papers, fruit skins, peanut shells, etc.—anywhere but in receptacles provided for the purpose. and the Tealth Protective Association is going to ask the Commissioner of Parks to place similar placards in the small parks. “The small parks are worse than the large ones.” said Mrs. Pdward lee Young at the regular meet ing of the association in the Academy of Medicine vesterday afternoon. “You can find all sorts of things under the seats. The night before last I saw some children throwing lobster shells at each other. They had got hold of the remains of somebody's lincheon.

Modern Ways with the Fragrant Plant Not Used by Oldtime Cooks. mint leaves in several delightful ways of whicn her grandmother knew nothing, in jellies and vari ous other confections. The oldtime cook used this fragrant bit of green chiefly in sauces for lamb and mutton. Though this sauce was delic ious when properly made, the flavor of the herb was too often lost when combined with the coarse vinegar that was used. But the up-io-date cook uses lemon instead of vinegar and turns her sauce into a beautiful green jelly. The delicate acid of the lemon brings out the delightful flavor and fragrance of ithe mint, instead of partially drowning them, as did the cldtime vinegar. A good rule that has been thoroughly tested is the following: Take one bunch of fresh green mint. one cup of boiling water, a tablespoonful of granulated gelatine, half a cup of cold water, the juice of a lemon, half a cup of sugar and a little green coloring matter. Wash the mint and wipe it dry: pick off the leaves and let them steep in the boiling water for a few minutes. Soak the gelatine in the cold water for two or three min utes and then add the lemon juice and sugar. Pour over this the boiling hot mint; stir it until the gelatine is thoroughly dissolved; then strain through a thin muslin bag. Add the green color ing—enough to give an attractive tint. Pour the jelly into the mould and set it in the ice box to harden. Do not use dried mint for this jelly, but the fresh green plant that grows near almost every brookside. The dried mint will impart an herby flavor. It is necessary in order to have a perfect jelly to use the coloring matter. With out it the jelly has the unattractive color of tea. EE A dainty spray of mint may be moulded in the jelly. or a circle of tiny sprays may garnish the exterior. Some, however, consider it just as pretty without decoration. Another form of mint jelly is the following, rec ommended by 3 well known cook. It calls for two tablespoonfuls of Spanish <auce, a good sized tea spoonful of gelatine, a tablespoonful of aspic and ene of .thick mint sauce. Though this jelly is probably richer in flavor than the other, it can hardly be as attractive to look at. For a good. simpie way of making old-fashioned mint sauce use one large tablespoonful of chopped mint. three-fourths of a cup of vinegar and two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Mix the three togetaer and let them stand an hour: then serve. Delmon jeo’s rule for mint sauce differs from any other rule. Tt calls for one-quarter of a bunch of finely minced mint leaves, half a cupful of water, half a cupful of broth or consommé, four tablespoon fuls of vinegar, a tablespoontul of salt and nalf an ounce of sugar. Mix together and serve in a sauce bowl There are many other ways of using this piquant flavor. Ome well known writer on cook ery uses it to redeem =z flavorless apple jelly. to ba served with roast goose or pork. Unless apples of fine favor are used an apple jelly is tasteless, but it takes on foreign flavors very nicely. For a jelly of this Kind use unripe, green apples. Just hefore adding the sugar sur in, to every cupful of juice. a tablespoonful of mint juice, prepared in the following way: Wash a cupful of mint jeaves, add a cupful eof hot water and let together for an hour. Then lay a a bowl, pour the mixt much as jou can es Rte nt erin rrr Te TH I HHH I 1 HHH HHH TS A Te eT Ae TTT hoth steep piece of cheesecloth over ure into it and squeeze as througi the cloth, Mint leaves are often candied when in the =s2me way that fruits and nuts are and they make a delightful confection, -Ajint vinegar' is another wav of using mint leaves. Dr. Kitchener's way of preparing it is &s follnm s rv and pound half an ounce of green hest vinegar very fresh mint. pour over it a2 quart of the 2-4 let it steep ten dave. shaking it well every dns it i= a weleomne substitute earl In spring. before the fresh green herb can be abtained or alien the latter is difficult to obtain Jt may be used in mint sauce, salads or in any way desired In diving thie mint de not let it stand till brown, hit anly until the Jeaves are free from moisture. A popular magazine some time ago published the fallowing recipe for mint sherbet which reads as though it would taste good: “Wash and dry thor oughiv a bunch of mint. Strip the leaves from the stalks and pound them to a pulp. Add the juice of two lemons, cover and 1et stand fifteen minutes. 1a the mean time put two cupfuls of granulated gugar and one cupful of water over the fire. Stir until the sugar is dissolved; then boil till the syrup spins a short thread; take from the fire, add the mint and lemon juice and one-half cupful of strained orange juice. When cold strain and freeze, 2dding. when half frozen, cone tablespoonful of creme de menthe.” Mint julep. the refreshing old-fashioned Southern drink, has been superseded, it is said, by cheap juleps which cannot compare with it and have ruined the reputation of this once famous drink. For a real Georgia mint julep a good cook book gives the following: Put a dozen young sprigs of mint into a large glass; add a teaspoonful of pow dered sugar dissolved In a small quantity of water; then three-foufths of a wineglassful of cognac and three-fourths of a wineglassful of peach brandy. Fill up with shaved ice. Stir with out crushing the mint. «Mint tea” was once used to some extent in sickness. It was considered good for allaying nausez. Put the herbs into a pitcher: pour bolil ing water over them and cover the pitcher. Set jt near the fire until sufficiently strong. Occasionally a bit of minced mint is used in a mayonnaise sandwich filling. An East Indian way of serving green peas 1s with mint eaves. according to the following rule: Put the peas into a sar with a =mall quantity of butter, pepper, salt, a pinch of sugar and some voung mint leaves. Cover the jar and set it in a <3 UCEPaAn of water. Let the peas cook till tender. Long tulle veils, eitner plain or spangled, have usurped ihe place of those bight culored scaris SERVING FRESH MINT.

No one, least of all any American, can feel that her institutions are foreign to his interest; vet some of the forces at work in them are not described in any document, and can be learned only from such a study as this of the machinery of the public life of to-day. It was Mr. Bryce who in “The American Commonwealth” spread before our eves like a map the whole system of our national existence, and made it fully comprehensible literally for the first time.

But several other things are hetter for this purpose and have not the objectionable qualities of benzoin. It is one of the woes of these later days that, after we have been driven to a certain course of action by vociferous reformers, another set of re formers immediately starts up and assures us that this is precisely the most perniclous thing we could do. For years the advance guard has been doing battle with the old fashioned folk, who didn’t believe in giving girls the same sports and the same muscular training as their brothers. Girls have been driven to the golf links and plunged into the swimming pool. They have been taken from the embroidery frame and the piano stool to climb ropes and disport themselves on parallel bars. The tennis racket has been given to them in place of the needle. And now, forscoth, having done all that the reformers demanded, a new set of prophets arises and tells us that we are robbing women of their beauty. We are ruining their complexions, hardening their facial lines, broadening their hands, enlarging their feet, spoiling their gait and cearsen ing their volees. In short, our last estate is said to be worse than our first. It is a distinct triumph for women who for years past have been jeered at for their love of tea that tea has been recommended for German soldiers on the march. Hitherto coffee has been supplied, but it is now urged that tea is less injurious to the nerves, and =o all appliances for brewing the cup that cheers are being supplied.

The Tact that the sppropriations made by Con ziress for the fiscal year 1908-09 excead X1,000, O00 is being used by Democratic “econo wists” to stagger the imagination of the polit icallr unsophisticated. The same device was tried when it was found that the appropriations made aut the two sessions of the 31st Congress were more than a billion dollars. Npeaker Need me: the hue and cry raised then with the sage remark that this was “a billion dollar country.” It is more than ever a billion dollar country now. and no discredit can attach to Con gress for appropriating a billion dollars at one session instead of two sessions if the legitimate needs of the nation require such an expenditure. As The Tribune has more than once ex plained, the total of appropriations for any fiscal vezr does not represent the actual drain on the nation’s income to be met out of the proceeds of taxation. It is only a bookkeeping total. In the first place the postal service is nearly self supporting. Only deficiencies in that service must be paid out of the Treasury. and the nom inal charge of $£222.962.00% on accouut of postal operations for 1908-03 should be reduced to about £10.00.001—the probable loss on tbe wear's business. Congress appropriated 858.000), 30 for the requirements of the sinking fund in 1908.09. But the Treasury's obligations to the sinking fund are already overpaid. and this sum need not be set aside. A bookkeeping appropria tion of $2500.00 was made for the redemption of naticual bank nctes. But the banks are to mske good any part of this sum actually used to redeem; their notes. For the construction of the Panama Cans] $29.187.000 was voted. But this charge is to be met out of the proceeds of a bond issue aiready uuthorized sud concluded. The District f Coimmbia is credited with $10. «0,000 in the appropriation column, but Lalf of this is 10 be refunded out of District axes. On deducting all these items It will be seen that the expenditures for 1908-08 to Le drawn from the Tressury need not ran much over $680,000.000 or SCG0H 0000. The ordinary revenues of the government for next vear were estimated Ly the Tressury-—ihe estiuate being handed in last winter —sa1 about SGX. Bat both cons joms aud internzl revenme receipts have mate rially declined in the lai six mouths, and this computation of probable receipts will nadoubt edly be found 10 be excessive. Ordinary re weipts for 196GT-ON will full below 500.000 000 end in 1908-09 can hardly exceed SO20000G0 There will, therefore, iw auother deficit next xezr of at least $60,000,000 or ST0.000.00, Fortunately there js still an excessive casi balance in the Treasury and the 1965-709 delici Amusements. can be easily met. Congress will undoubtedly be salled on to revise the tariff in 1909, and ad ditional taxes can then be laid to fortify the Treasury. This, of course, is on the presump tion that the conntry feels that it is getting its monex’s worth for the increase in expenditure entailed by nstional progress in the iast fen or fifteen veasrs. It is the favorite ecempation of Democratic “economists” to frame such con trasts as thie, taken from Representative Fitz: gerald’s speach in the House last Saturday: _ Inder Cleveland the per capita appropriations for the army for four years were $1 35; for the navy. $1 54: for fortifications, 20 cents; the av erage per capita for the three services, 3309. Under Roosevelt, in his sacond administration, the appropriations for the army for the four year period are $268, more than two and 2a half times the amount under Cleveland; for the navy $4 91, mora than threa times the amount under (leveland; for fortifications, 32 cents, more than 40 per cent increase over Clevelard: and the average per capita cost for the three services under Roosevelt is $889, two and one-fourth times as great as under Cleveland. But such arguments entirely dodge the ques. tion whether we can or want to go back to the conditions of the Cleveland era, when we had an obsolete army establishment of twenty-five thousand men, the beginnings of an adequate navy and some half completed coast fortifica tions, and were still talking abont some day joining the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a transisthmian waterway. The United States has grown enormously in power and resources since 1893 and has assumed responsibilities then only vaguely foreseen. Why should Congress be censured for trying to provide for new na tional needs or for failing to cut national ex penditure to the outgrown measurements of the Cleveland administration? There is no discredit in spending a billion dollars annually if a sound estimate of public advantage determines the wisdom of living on a billion dollar scale. Taking dispatches at face value, the news paper reader will have observed that Missouri and her neighbors are compelling prosperity by resolutions and jollification meetings. In St. louis there is a Prosperity Association whose purpose in life is the lengthening of drummers’ order lists hy the dissemination of sunshine. This eptimistic organization appears to have accomplished something. Late reports say that jt« members and friends celebrated the 1st of June, not with fireworks and lemonade, but with a grand display of will power. Some small part of this mental effort was spent in con vincing the public near and far that a great industrial revival throughout the whole country might be induced by a little good cheer: but the greater portion was used in re-employing 17.000 men (so the story goes) in manufactur ing plants and mercantile houses. ‘ne news purveyor says that the business men partici pating in this celebration gave orders for more than £5.000.000 worth of various goods, with a view to making machinery hum from ocean to ocean. And, just to heap proof upon proof in demonstrating the measureless possibilities of adding a cubit of dollars to a bank account by taking thought, the association asserts that it has already accomplished far more than even the most sanguine members had hoped for. Business throughout the country has greatly im proved since the executive committee began mailing circulars some weeks ago, and confi dence is already =o far restored that lost au smmn’'s woes have faded into painless memo Ties. Pe

i Far be it from our thoughts to make light of these exercises in will power. We cannot agree with the hard headed men who compare Mis souri's attempt at mending the economic order with a legislature's amendment of the multipli cation table. There surely are times when the orthodox doctors of economy can profitably call in the mental healer for consultation. Indeed, even among the orthodox faith is being more and more exalted as a factor in business, for credit itself. which is the cornerstone of the modern economic order. is nothing but faith. Nevertheless, this is hardly enough to prove that the present indubitable revival of business is chiefir due to the pamphlets, exhortation and geod cheer emanating from the Missouri “Give Ts-a Rest-and-Sunshine” League. Faith may cometimes move mountains, but it surely can not do so if there are no mountains fo move. “A community of Esquimaus could not make strawberry patches thrive in Greenland by or ganizing a glee club. Neither can our own opti mistic Westerners bring on a sudden rush of prosperity unless the country itself is potentially prosperous. The reported success of the hoom ers is, of course. a fruitful tribute to their own wholesome sturdiness and energy: but it is still more a revelation of the country’s wealth and rescurces. The United States is still the land of boundless possibilities. and no financial dis turbance can long check their realization. Iac tories are opening. laborers being reinstated. wages being maintained. and millions of dollars’ worth of equipment being ordered, not, in truth, as a desperate means of restoring confidence, but rather because profits are in plain sight. PROSPERITY BOOM RN. THF KFA NATE AND THE HAGUE. Congress in the session which has just ex pired established an excellent record for posi tive achievements in more than ene direction, and perhaps in none more than in that of for eign relations. The activity of the Senate in considering and ratifying treaties was excep tional and was. on the whole, discreetly and profitably exercised. We hare hitherto re marked upon its ratification of a series of arbi tration treaties with various countries. In that the Senate confirmed the benevolent attitude Jong maintained by the United States toward international controversies and vindicated the sincerity of American support of the pacific principles set forth at The Hague. In other no less important particulars the work at The Hague was reaffirmed and ratiiied at Washing ton. The analysis of Senatorial action on treaties which we published the other day showed that all the conventions formulated at The Hague were ratified except three, and the reasons fo- not ratifying those were such as should be generally conclusive, while the eleven which were ratified are in the aggregate vastly mere important hoth for the mitigation of the srrors of war and for the avoidauce of inter national ill will. One of the latter provides for the application to naval warfare of the humane provisions of the Geneva Conference. A second probibits un til the end of the next congress at The Hague the dropping of projectiles or explosives from balloons or aerial vessels. A third amplifies and reaffirms the rules against barbarous meth ods in warfare, forbidding the use of poisons or poisoned weapous, killing or wounding by treachery. killing or wounding defe neeless ene mies, proclaiming that no quarter will be given, using weapons or projectiles calculated to in flict superfluous Injuries, using flags, uniforms or badges improperly, needlessly destroying the enemy's property, declaring the rights of the enemy's nationals extinet or ineffective, and compelling the enemy's nationals to serve against their own counury. There can he no doubt that the operation of these treaties will materially mitigate the sufferings caused by war to both combatants and non-combatants, Other treaties concluded at The flague and ratified by the Secuate in the late session deal with tie rights and duties of neaipals. They yankee the territory of a neutral inviolate, forbid the operation of wireless ielegraphy for military purposes by belligerent agents on neutral terri tory, and free neutral powers from responsi bility for the export of arms or munitions of war to a belligerent army or fleet. Another establishes specitic rules for notification of the beginning of hostilities, bhotir to the enemy who ix to he attacked and to pnentrals. The effect of these conventions evidently must be to lesser

It must also lessen the danger of neutrals being involved in a conflict with the belligerents or in unpleasant disputes over the eandnct of a war. The adoption of such agree ments by the nations of the world marks the congress as beyond ali computation worth the holding. and the ratification of them by our Senate finely vindicates the leading part Amer ira has taken in hoth the meetings at The J laone Jefferson Davis was born one hundred years ago to-day. He received an excellent eivil and military education. As a soldier under the 1 nited States flag he displayed ability and great personal valor. In the public life of the nation he filled with acceptability and sometimes with distinction various places of high rank. In the prime of life he became one of the chief leaders of the secession movement, and was for its en tire period of four years the President of the Confederacy of seceding Southern States. After the war he maintained a more irreconcilable attitude toward the national government than did most of his colleagues. Concerning his personal character and his in tellectual gifts there are among informed men few differences of opinion, and discussion of them is not demanded at this time, Concern ing the merits of his course as a secessionist legder there is not, and probably never will be, agreement. Although his temperament made him less a personal idol than Robert E. Lee or Thomas J. Jackson, he has been and will always he regarded by Southerners as the foremost ex ponent of their “Lost Cause.” while in the North he will continue to be looked upon as chief among those who sought to destroy the nation. This centennial anniversary of his birth will be widely celebrated in the South, and the cornerstone of an imposing monument to his memory will be laid at New Orleans. The peo ple of the North will look upon such proceed ings without suspicion or resentment and with far less aversion than they would have felt not many years ago, though even the people of the South cannot expect them to manifest enthu siasm or sympathy over the occasion. Diver zence of judgments and of sentiments on per sonal matters and on matters which have be come accomplished facts may persist without essential antagonism. Not all true Euglishmen are in accord as to the comparative merits of Charles Stuart and Oliver Cromwell, nor are all loval® Frenchmen agreed concerning Bourbon and Bonaparte. So this indissoluble Union, whatever its local memories and sentiments, may look, and does look, with equanimity, void of either hatred or fear. upon this centenary of the birth of Jefferson avis, —b

The mayoralty recount is not proving the validity of Mr. Hearst's claim to martyrdom. The average gain for Mr. Hearst in each ballot box. which started out bravely at 13, dropped 10 a little more than two yesierday. and it is fall ing off so rapidly that it threatens soon to dis appear entirely. Indeed, in the sixteen boxes counted yesterday morning there was 8 net loss of three votes for Mr. Hearst. The prospect ix that if the whole city is recounted very little change will be made in the Mayor's plarality, and that change is just as likely to prove 2 zain as a Joss. No indications of fraud have been found in ihe boxes so far examined. The difl ferences between the recount and the official count have resulted either from the stupidity of the original election beards in failing to keep their tally sheets straight or’ from the justice's ruling more strictly upon the ‘defective ballote than those hoards did. Some of the poxes hetrav a lzmentable lack of capacity on the part of the original canvassers. One opened vesterday, for instance, eredited Mayor MeClel lan with 108 votes, whereas he actually Lad 127 votes in the hox, while the Hearst votes in this same hox were four more than he was credited with. There was certainly no indica tion of fraud in this, but only of plain stupidity, which could not keep a straight tally of a little more than two hundred ballots. There is not even any evidence as vet that the original ecan vassers had a disposition to give the Mayor the benefit of the doubt in regard to disputed bal lots. The boards were honest, but blundering, and errors of this sort will tend to offset each other thromghout the city. The recount may, therefore, be considered a justification of the present system of bipartisan eanvassers, with party watchers to scrutinize the count. It ap parently gives an honest tabulation, even when one of the parties which turns out to he a major party has no representation on the board. The real defect in the system is thai, while honest, the canvassers make many serious mis takes, and that so long as it is possible for a count to be fifteen or tweniy votes out of the way in a single box doubt will hang over the re sult of any close election. When all the pother and needless excitement over the 1000 election and the possibilities for demagogy in it are taken into consideration every one must wish for the perfection of mechanical methods of registering votes which will establish results at once and forever hevond dispute. Our ancestors and many of our less civilized contemporaries would look upon the Emmanuel Church movement in Boston as the most nat ural thing in the world. They would be puzzled over the curiosity. excitement, doubt and scoffing which Dr. Worecester's programme has aroused in varions quarters. To their minds it is fit and proper that a minister should un dertake to heal the sick and cast out devils by praver and exhortation. or has this not been his function ever since the long forgotten rise of priesteraft? As the devout Mahometan still thinks, so has the whole world believed down to yesterday: sickness is a curse sent by the zods, and only those who can invoke the gods are competent to heal. The age and univer sality of this «<onception possibly account for some of tiie sudden popularity which the Em manuel wovement has attained. It may be a case of intellectual atavism. And yet only a bigot could dismiss the rise of Boston's latest cult with this comment. If the moveinent carries us back to primitive cus toms, it also stands for an idea so wodera that many cautious persons think it extreme. Dr. Worcester, a pupil of the first truly scientific psychologist, Gustav Fechner, is using vot sug gestion alone but encouragement as an aid in treating functional nervous diseases. That he is no fanatic or ignoramus may be seen in his willingness to employ, along with encourage ment, any drug or other conventional treat ment. He does not fancy that prayer or effort of will can mend a broken bone; but he is con vineced that a patient's mental attitude can help or hinder his recovery from almost any ailment and is unusually potent in many nervous dis eases, notably those which do not arise from an organic disturbance. This belief, within certain limits, is held by the whole civilized world to-day, and it has been measurably sub stantiated by scientific researches. In encour aging his patients by prayer and cheerful ex hortation, therefore, Dr. Worcester iz simply applying the gospel of common folk and ‘he psychiatrist. His clear success, as well as his courage in exposing himself to ridicule and even to social martyrdom, is looked upon by “The New York Medical Journal” as an indictment of the orthodox physician's excessive conservatism. In an editorial about the enterprise this periodi ¢a] says: Whatever results nay flow from this move ment, one of them, it is to be hoped, will be that of =~~ousing the medical profession te a fuiler

But this warning to the physician must also he read to the priest, who should appreciate his limitations as well as hie power. If the new movement is going fo pecome a cult, with church clinies in every town and perhaps with a high priest and an official magazine, many reckless and incompetent “healers” will soon ba trying to cure typhoid with talk. This dark event may be hastened by the apparent efficacy of “Christian therapeutics” in healing the most deep seated, chronic and baffling diseases. Al ready we hear if reported that an advanced case of locomotor ataxia has seemingly been cured hy the new method! But, however de plorable future excesses way be, they will prob ably be no more than incldents in a useful cam paign. The public is fast learning to discount extravagant theories and hopes. The world’ best medical schools are now investigating and teaching the influence of mind upon the hodr. And ere long the rarer. more complicated uses of suggestion and encouragement will doubtless have been worked out with some degree of ac curacy. In that day. perhaps, every physician will believe and practise many things which win for the priest in this year of grace only smiles or abuse in conserviatice circles. For it is an admitted fact that the wisest physician or the most deeply versed psychologist or the most presumptuous “mental healer” of to-day does not know, even vaguely, the nature and extent of the influence exerted by the central nervous erstem upon the rest of the body.

The shabby attempt to create for political ad 2 misunderstanding of the meaning and purpose of a part of Secretary Taft's Memorial Dax address was a conspicuous failure. It has, in fact, evoked from representative newspapers of ali parties a prompt rebuke, reflecting their own good judgment and an accurate estimate of the sound common sense of the American public. vantage The Democratic managers in Texas have paid a high compliment to the Hon. Charles F. Mur phy and the Hon. “Fingy’’ Conners. At the re cent state convention a slate for district dele gates to Denver was rushed through, much as Messrs. Murphy and Conners made up the Dem ocratic State Committee last April. The excuse given was that in some of tha districts the dele gates did not know enough to choose the right sort of men—that is, men acceptable to the party bosses. It seems to be getting to be a capital offence in Democratic politics not to anticipate the wishes and opinions of the men who run rere things.

Judge Alum, of one of Havana's correctionsl courts, fined the management of the Albisu Theatre $20 a few days ago for violating the ordinance against the playing of the Marcha de Cadiz (Cadiz March). There is a peculiar but reasonable preju dica in Cuba against this Spanish march. It was to that tune, in the days when Spain ruled the island. that the Cuban patriots marched to their execution. So. when the independent government was established, six vears ago, a ban was placed on the march and it has been zeldom heard since then. Seifior Valdes, manager of the Albisu The atre, explained that the large Spanish element in the house demanded the plaving of the Cadiz March, and he complied to avoid trouble. “The papers are afraid to say am thing,” sneered the first citizen. a “Some people don't feel that wav ahout it,”" re plied the other. “Ever run for office? “No; but I wrote a letter roasting some fellowa that needed roasting, and the paper didn't print a line.” “Did vou sign your name?’ a “Certainly not.

He held the office of Lord Mavor in the year of Queen Victoria's jubilee, 1896-'97, and his father, Benjamin Phillips, filled the office before, 1855-36, as the second Jew who had held this honor. Lady Phillips is the daughter of the late J. M. Levey, the founder of “The Daily Telegraph,” whose son, by the name of Lawson, long ago became converted to Christianity.
