mission rose to protest against the char
acter of the testimony, saying that Judge
Haight was his next door neighbor and
one of the purest men he had ever known.
He had never before heard an imputa-
ton upon his character He appealed to
Mr.. Lockwood to have the statement
stricken out of his testimony.
The statement he said, twas not
testimony, but it was pure libel
Mr.. Lockwood said that he also knew
Judge Haight, and that he had been sur
prised at the apparent development. The
issue had been raised in the campaign,
and he understood that he ran behind
his ticket.
WITNESSES DEFENDED.
After few general remarks by others
of the commission as to the advisability
of striking out the entire statement, Con-
gresham Bell rose and made a vigorous
protest against the demand to eliminate
any of the testimony. 1t was not, he
said, the providence of the commission to
tell witness what he must say. He
said he had noticed that some members
OF the commission were very sensitive
when something was said which did not
entirely fall inS with their predictions.
1t was perfectly competent for any man
coming here to entertain opinions upon
any of these subjects and to advance
them or criticise public officials. In this
connection he said that Gov. Larrabee,
OF Wyoming, had said that there were
two judges on the supreme court bench
who were put there for the purpose of
securing the notification of the granger
law. He also instanced other cases in
which the railroads had secured the ap-
pcintment of judges whose sympathies
We're with them. If this was so, said Mr..
Bell, why should a man be barred from
saying so? And if the commission was
not going to permit such testimony, he
would be compelled to say when it came
to making the report of the commission
he had not been non-partisan. AS an
other illustration of the manipulation on
the part of the railroads. he quoted a
Republican member of the congressional
postal commission as saying that it's pro-
ceedinS would come to naught, because
the second assistant postmaster general,
who has charge of these matters, is in
sympathy with the railroads man
was not sacred, he said, because of the
place he occupied, and if a judge on the
bench is elevated to his position by de-
Vious means, it was not the duty of the
commission to screen him.
Former Congressman Phillips. presid-
ing, held that the testimony was compe-
tent.
In his statement before the commission
yesterday President c. E. Dove, of the
Commercial Travellers association. sub
mitted figures to show that the organi-
cation of the trusts had resulted in
throwing 81, 00G0 statesmen out of EMPLOY
ment, and in reducing the salaries of
29.~J0 more. He estimated that the annual
less to the statesmen on account of loss
OF employment and reductions aggregated
SS0Ue GOO; to the hotels SIS, 600, 900 and %
the railroads $27, 000,0o0, because of the
loss of patronage.

South Wholesome OF the most desirable
Offices of its kind in the gift of the crown
caused intense surprise and no little chagrin
among the horde of unionist persons with
much longer records of party service who
would have eagerly grasped at it. Their dis
gust Is not mitigated by the knowledge that
Beauchamp was selected at the express
wish OF the queen, who promised his father,
a long-trusted friend of hers, that she would
further his heirs career.
The World correspondent has heard a ro-
mantle story of Earl Beauchamp, which IL
said to account for the queens desire to
send him abroad in a responsible position.
He is only 81 years old, is the ideal of a
handsome young aristocrat, is fair, tall, in
tellectual, distinguished looking, earnest be-
yond his years and a dreamer of dreams for
the Improvement OF the masses. Though a
unionist, he sits with the progressive party
on the London School Board and took a
strong independent line opposed to his party
on the Turkish atrocity question. Three
years ago he formed an attachment for a
maid IN his mothers service and despite
every influence determined to marry her.
With that end in view he sent her abroad
to oe educated to fit her for the position ne
intended she should occupy. II is not pre-
cisely known whether he has thought of this
projected misalllance OF not, but the fact
that he has accepted an Australian gov
ernorsnip for a term OF tye years en-
courages the belief that he has abandoned
the idea which could scarcely prove alto
gether happy in its fulfllment. His sister
will accompany him as chatelain OF the gov
erpment house at Sydney.

your correspondent today:
Besides sending men to Paris, the most
likely place for negotiating notes, we are
covering Monte Carlo and New York with
our detectives. ] am convinced that an
American is in this business. In all cases
OF clever bank-snatching Americans are in
it. In no other class of dishonest people
do you get the combination of patience, skill
and impudenee. After all. impudeuce car
ries the thing through. They work in smalr
gangs. twos and threes. For weeks or
months. even years, they will watch a bank
they want to plumber. They watch clerks
the walking clerk for choice. They will
see whether he is apt to be a little loose in
his mode Of collecting money from the diff
ferent banks. whether he occasionally leaves
that part Of the counter where business is
transacted to talk to a friend. They know
that in the course Of time he will leave a
wallet unprotected. Then they will avail
themselves Of the opportunity and pounce
upon their game.
practically every clerk in every bank in
the city is watched by such men, with the
idea Of his making a slip some day. When
he makes the slip they are down on him, to
their own advantage. All the habits of all
the clerks are thoroughly understood. If
one IL dismissed it is realized that, smart
ing under dismissal, valuable information
may be secured which can be put to use at
the earliest opportunity. If this money was
stolen by an employe Of the bank l firmly
believe 1t was In conjunction with one or
more OF these American professional bank
robbers"
