MORGAN ON THE STAND.
INTERRoGATED As TO THE BOND
ISSUES.
Refuses 10 Say How Much Was Made
BY Himself and Associates, as it
Was Private business Transac-
ton.

NEW YORK, June ID. Pierpont
Morgan was before the senate bond
investigating committee today, to be
examined as to what he knew regard
ing government bond issues of the last
three years. His examination related
mainly to the issues of last year, the
whole of which was subscribed by the
Morgan-Belmont syndicate. No facts
not already known to the public were
elected. Mr. Morgan refused to tell
what the profits of the syndicate were.
taking the ground that it was a private
business into which the committee had
no right to inquire.
John w Stewart, president of the
United States Trust company was also
examined, particularly as to the popu-
lar loan of this year.
Both Stewart and Morgan said they
engaged in the bond subscriptions
more from patriotic motives than from
a desire to profit by the transactions
Conrad n. Jordan, assistant United
States treasurer in this city said the
tender of William Graves, who sued
to have his bonds allotted to him. was
irregular and for that reason he de-
clined to deal with him.
Mr.. Graves questioned Mr.. Jordan
and elected the admission that he

done in other cases.
Cashier Chaplin. of the Third Ma
tional bank, of this city. President
Woodward. of the Hanover National
bank, whose banks were involved in
Graves charges, make explicit denals.
Graves was recalled and quest oned
sharply by Senator Harris. He finally
admitted that there were irregularities
in his tender.
Senator Harris. speaking for himself,
announced that ne was convinced that
Graves tender was not in accordance
with the rules of the treasury.
Harlan Whipple, of the New York
Security & Trust company, also de-
MED Graves charge, but admitted
telling him he would be looked after
IL he kept quiet.
He explained this by saying he dis
liked newspaper notoriety and did not
want 10 be entangled in the natter
Re said Graves deal fell through be-
cause Graves was unable to purchase
the bonds he bid for. He intimated
that there was lack of sincerity to
Graves backing.

Right Side.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, June 19.-The
Democratic state convention was in
session until 2:l5 this morning, the
greater part of the time being taken
up in hot fight over the question of
expressing a choice for a presidential
candidate. A resolution instructing the
national delegates for Bland was Wig
orously opposed by Senators Jones and
Berry, but finally adopted, 420 TO S25.
The platform makes no reference to
the national administration. The
financial plank is as follows
I'VE favor bimetallism and TO that
end we insist upon the unlimited
coinage of both gold and silver at
ratio of 16 TO l as the money of final
redemption with equal legal tender
powers, independent of action by any
other nation.
I'VE are opposed to the issue of in
in time of peace.
we demand that the government
shall not surrender, but shall always
exercise its lawful option to redeem its
obligations either in gold or silver, as
may be most convenient.
I'VE demand the repeal of the pres
ent laws discrediting the silver money
of the nation and the legalizing of
private contracts payable in gold
alone.
we are opposed to the national
banking system, and we believe the
power and duty of the government to
furnish a circulating medium should
not be delegated to any private cor
poration."
The delegates to the national con-
vention were chosen as follows At

DELGADo's CASE.
Government Trying to Secure Rep
80 81 arntiOn. 1910

W. SEh fheht Tying 10 secure rep
- 81 nrntiOn. 1=Jlo
WASHINGTON, June 19.-Instrtictions
of a direct and positive character have
been sent to the United States minister
at Madrid Mr.. Hannis Taylor, to make
strong representations to the Spanish
government with view of securing rep
araGion for indignities to Dr. Jose Del
gado and other American citizens in
Cuba.
The instructions went by mail some
days ago, and should reach Madrid by the
present time. A cabiegram has been sent
10 Mr.. Taylor at Paris asking that he
return to Madrid as soon as he is able
TO travel in order to attend to the matter.
1t is understood the purpose is not so
much TO press pecunlary claim at a
time when Spain is embarrassed, as il is
to insist on the right of full protection
to the persons of American citizens in
Cuba. Mr. Olneys Instructions were sent
before meeting DIR. DeIgado and his
father, who are now in the city, but their
presence has afforded an opportunity to
secure such full details of the indigntty
as may become desirable when Mr.. Tay-
Tor acts on his return to Madrid
The circumstances of the case as pre-
scented, to the department brings out some
important phases not shown in the re-
ports from Havana, which preceded the
arrival of the Deigados The customary
criticism against General Weyier is va
ried in this instance by full approval of
the Delgados every aid towards repara-
ton
Al the suggestion of Consul General
Lee and on the advice of DIR. Rodriguez
their consul here, they came to Washing
ton TO make Il personal statement TO the
secretary. They have shown to Mr. Oh
ney the machete which was broken. in the
bow across Delgado's face, the tbuilet
which he received Oh the first voiiey and
. photograph of DR.. De!gado on stretch
eT, after beng taken from the place of
shooting. These have lent a graphic in
tersst TO their recital OF the events
The action of Mr.. Olney in nstructing
Minister Taylor places the case above
one of a pecuniary character as a claim.
Under the rules of the department
claim for pecuniary damages must state
a liked sum. 1t is believed, however, that
in the Degado case the pecuniary claim
fer damages TO the Delgado plantation,
etc, will be subordinated 10 the personal
indignify involved. which is construed as
serious mainly through its offense to
American citizenship, and after that is
sertied the peeuniary loss of the Deigados
doubtless will be the subject of a, claim
for indemnity

two-fifths as much butter fat as
jersey COW, while it cost
no more to feed the Jersey than 1t did
to feed the scrub.
The Iowa experiment station reports
as the result of a COW feeding test that
the sugar beet had a wider nutritive
ratio than any other root fed. The
greatest per cent of sugar was secur-
ed from beets weighing two pounds
without the top.
The time honored custom of pound
ing a COW in the side with a milking
stool to make her give down milk will
not work. If coaxing and cajolery viii
not succeed it is best to change milk
ers. Cows have their little prejudices
and they cannot be eradicated with a
club. Generally the COW knows who
is who.
1t stands 20 ~eason that cows will
get more sustenance from fodder when
it is properly cut up for them to eat
with ease Testing cows with equal
milking capacity, it was found that
721 pounds of cut fodder produced as
much milk as 1,133 pounds OF uncut
stalks. This is difference which de-
mands our attention
Sometimes there is more in the dairy
man than in the tnoroughbreds, silage,
patent creamer, starter and all other
para phernalia. Regularity. cleanliness
and common sense count for great

in view of the retirement of Governor
Schmidt. According to the Kolniesche
Zeitung, Captain Brandries. now in the

ness for the place is doubted. Owing to
his having formerly been oyerseer to ex-
King Tamassee, his selection might cause
friction. The German press, which has
frequently criticised Chief Justice Ide,
