EXPERTS FOR DEFENSE
Testimony Tending to Acquit
MoIineux of Having Addressed
Poison Package Wrapper.

New York, Nov. 1.-The cross-exam-
ination of Roland B. Molineux by As
sistant District Attorney Osborne,
which was resumed at the opening of
court today, was finished within a few
minutes after its resumption. The de-
fendant was in the best of humor Mr..
Osborne's first question today was:
Did not Mr. Barnet pay your wife
attention."
Not at ALL" was the reply.
did you not so testify at the in
quest?"
Molineux's reply to this was that
Barnet had paid attention to Miss
Chesebro in the spring and autumn
of 1898, before she became Mrs. Moli-
neux.
Mr.. Osborne ceased his exanSnation
rather abruptly after severed questions
as TO the prisoners connection with
various medical associations.
AS Molineux resumed his seat, the
Rev. Lindsay Parker of Brooklyn shook
hands with him, and his father, Gen.
eral Molineux, patted him affectionate-
~ on the shoulder and said: Good
boy
Mr. Black called Max Gumpel, a
handwriting expert, as his first wit
ness after MoIineux. Mr.. Gumpel said
he had studied handwriting for more
than thirty years and had testified in
many important cases, among others
the Ref and Becker forgery, the Shar-
on will case, the Sarah Althea Hill
controversy in California and the Rice
will case in New York. He declared
that the conceded and disputed writ
ings were not written by the same
hand. Mr.. Gumpel said it was his be-
lief that the address on the poison
package was in the natural hand Of
the writer and that it's crampei ap-
pearance was due to it's having been
written after the package was made
up.
on cross-examination, Mr.. Gumpel
said he would expect the sender of
a poison package to disguise his hand
writing. He knew or no case in which
person had sent poison to any one
without trying to conceal his identity.
Mr. Osborne got the witness to say
that the ''u' and &C" in ''coub," writ
ten by Molineuxx, had many char
acteristics in common with the ad-
dress on the poison package wrapper.
DR.. David Elwell, a handwriting ex-
pert, also testified that after having
made careful studies of the disputed
and conceded writings he was con-
WINGED that they had not been done
by the same hand.
DR.. Elwell was still on the stand when
court adjourned until Wednesday next.

Manhattan's strength was not sus-

The bank statement had not entered
very seriously into the calculations of

SENATOR BEvENDGE HONORED
lndiana's Young Senator onOne Of the
Most Important COMMITTEES.

A Washington telegram states that
as chairman of the republican caucus
Senator Allison has appointed the
senate committee on order of business.
1t is commonly known as the steering
committee, and has absolute control
of legislation in the senate, which
really controls congressional action.
The committee consists of Senators
Allison, of Iowa, Hale of Marie,
Aldrich of Rhode Island, Kean of New
Jersey, Spooner of Wisconsin, Elkins
of West Virginia, Ham of Ohio,
Platt of Connecticut, Cullom Of
Illinois, Beveridge of Indiana and Nc
MILAN of Michigan. The Middle
West controls this most important
committee of the senate, although the
East is represented by its strongest
senators. Mr.. Beveridge's appoint
ment on the steering committee is
considered not only high cOmpli-
ment, but a deserving recognition of
his services in the senate. 1t is not
usual to place so young member on
the steering committee, and Mr.. Alli-
son passed over senators of twenty
years standing in choosing the junior
member from Indiana Neither ma rti-
san loyalty nor intellectual attain
ments alone constitute the "Open
sesame" of this committee. To Sc
cure such a place requires trustworth-
mess and cOnser ,atism, as we'll as
good judgment In legislative affairs,
and it was these features of Senator
Beveridge's public record that led
Senator Allison to call him to the
council. Mr.. Beveridge's indefati-
gable work In Connection with the
Philippine problem, as well as his close
relatiOnS with President Roosevelt,
also were taken into consideration in
him to the committee
which will have much to do with max
ing issues and formulating the policy
of the party.

Insurance Companies Alarmed.

Insurance companies are alarmed.
More than forty million dollars worth
of property have been destroyed by
fire since January ], and about three
fourths of this was covered by insur-
ance.
There have been thus far during
the present year, as yet scarcely seven
weeks old, no fewer than three great
fires in the United States. That at
Norfolk, Va, involved an insurance
loss of 81, 200, 600: that at Waterbury,
Conn.,, an insurance loss OF So. 600, 600.
and than at Paterson N. j., an insur-
ance loss of about $4,000, 900. More
over. there have been insurance losses
on other fire.; which have consumed
only single buildings or blocks, amount
ing to $500, 900 daily.
The losses thus far announced mean
daily loss. for 1902, OF something
like 1925, 900; that is to say, for every
twenty-fOur hours of the new year the
insurance companies have had to meet
losses of nearly three-quarters of a
million dollars. Should the ratio of
OF 1925, 600 a day be maintained, the
total losses to the underwriters for
1902 would reach the enormous figure
of $3.50, 900, 900, against total loss of
500, OOO, 900 for 1901.

When the last congress passed the
act cutting off nearly all the stamp
taxes and reducing some others, the
reduction in the revenue by such
legislation was estimated at between
$40, 900, 900 and $50, 900, 900. The de-
crease from the cut of internal revenue
taxes in seven months was SIG,
GS0.65, but the increased receipts
from customs and miscellaneous
sources reduced the tax loss in revenue
to So, O4O, 134.93 in the latter period.
But while the Unexpectedly large re-
ceipt the last seven months helped to
increase the surplus, the cause which
contributed most was the reduction of
expenses during the latter period.
The net reduction of the expenditures
the last seven months from June 80,
1901, to Feb. /, 1902, was $685.
46S.13, of which the war department
must be credited with s24, 593, 673 80.
One of the most marked reduction
is the expenditure for interest ON the
public debt, namely, s2,316, 1872. 90.
The reduction of interest is due in
part TO the redemption of bonds, but
more to the exchange Of 2 per cent
bonds for those bearing higher rate
Of interest. The total interest-bear-
ing debt of the United States on Feb.
1, was 1899, 049, 33O-once more below
the billion mark.
In this connection it may be stated
that while the surplus during the
seven months of 19OO-19Ol before the
revenue reduction act was passed was
s26, POS, 219.29, during the correspond
ing six months after the enactment it
was $50, SOS, 552.49. This, it should
oe repeated and emphasized, is due
largely to that management of public
affairs which has resulted in a reduc-
tion of expenditures all along the line,
except in the navy. If the ways and
means committees bill to wipe out
the remainder of the war-revenue tax
should become law in its present form,
which is scarcely probable if the re-
ports from the senate are correct, there
will be no danger of deficiency, since
it will not 60 into effect until July 1,
1902, when the surplus will be larger
than it now is.-Indianapous Journal.
