REFEREES AS JUDGES.
Advocated by President of Bank.
ruptcy Men.

Milwaukee, Aug. 28.-Separate
courts TO deal with bankruptcy pro-
ceilings with referees as judges:
greater care upon me part of the
agents of the commercial reporting
agencies in preparing reports cover
ing the financial standings of trades
men and greater care upon the part
oil merchants in extending credit to
the smaller tradesmen, were adyocat-
ed by President Thomas T. Critten-
den Of Kansas City in his annual ad-
dress to the National Association OF
Referees in bankruptcy yesterday.
President Crittenden read from the
government reports showing the num-
Der of cases that have passed through
bankruptcy. For the six months end
ing in March, the present year. there
were 6,997 voluntary petitions where
the assets amounted to $3,834, 653. 80,
while the liabilities were s7O,45S, 3O5.-
92. In Ala involuntary cases the as
sets amounted to 81 ,633, 34309 and the
liabilities s7,0S3 ,05s57. The percen-
tage of the assets was very much
greater in involuntary cases than in
voluntary. There was much study or
human nature in bankruptcy proceed
ings, but President Crittenden said he
regretted that too often it was the
worst side of human nature that was
presented.
Referring to the Ray bill as the
amendment to the bankruptcy act
row pending in the senate is known.
President Crittenden said it was not
becoming for the association to dis.
cuss its merits. If 1t became a law il
would be the duty of the members to
assist in putting 1t into operation and
he thought that the referees were bet
ter prepared to do so because of the
experience gained IN dealing with the
present measure.
The report of the executive commfl.
tee, which favored the passage by the
senate of the Ray bill, amending the
bankruptcy law. was adopted by the
meeting. The adoption of the Ray
bill is advised in the form in which II
came from the house.

NOT NEW LAWS NEEDED
But Old One Says Speaker at Grand
Rapids


Grand Rapids, Mich. Aug. 2S.-Ia
the American municipalities conyen
ton yesterday afternoon Mayors Head
OF Memphis and Hayes of Baltimore
were the principal speakers. In the
evening Mayor Jones of Toledo spoke
on What Is Crime aud Who Are
Criminals. He said society was the
real criminal and not the man or the
individual. In condemning the pres.
ent criminal system, he said:
The preacher in his pulpit. the
judge on his bench, the workineman
on the street are part of his system
which is sick from head to feet ana
must share in the evil until We purge
the whole mass. The sending of n
poor man to the workhouse because
nc cannot pay his fine is but impris
cpment for debt. yet we boast that
the debtors prison has been abandon.
ed' The individual is only the scaD
that indicates the system Is diseased
a cancerous blotch on the face of the
system. 1t is useless to treat tho
scab; we must treat the patient. 1t
we believed the prison did good W..
would occasionally put our children
there, out there is not a Judge who
would not move heaven and earth to
save mis- child from such penalty. 1t
is not new laws that are needed I'm.
repeal of old ones.'

A Reminiscence.

So far it had been a successful trip.
 At Victoria, the ships boat had been quietly loaded with 10.gallon casks con- taining the sparkling liquor, and the two men had proceeded as far North on their journey to Douglas Island as the mud flats of Wrangel passage. The day was warm and the sun shone brightly. The wet blankets had been spread out to dry and everything was calm and safe. The quiet was broken, however, by the sudden appearance of an excursion steamer under full steam, but it passed on it's way, and all was we'll. Shortly after another steamer came into view. This, too, passed on without stopping to ascertain the con- tents of the little boat that lay so quiet ly and peacefully near the shore. As the smoke of third steamer appeared at the bend in the channel, one of the occupants of the small boat laconically remarked:
 "It's hell of day for boats."
 "Well, -, yes," came the re- ply. "Let's get out of here."
 Two pairs of oars were dipped in the water, and swiftly and silently the lit tie craft began to glide along the shore, keeping close in, but straining every nerve to reach some nook or cove that would serve as hiding place. But no such place appeared, and the men were still straining at the oars when the steamer reached point opposite them, but out in the stream about one-half mile. "Toot! tootr went the steamers whistle.
 "What does that mean, Billy"
 "That means stop"
 "Will we stop?"
 "Not by a danged sight," said Bill, and as he spoke he dipped his oars in- to the water and gave pull that sent the heavy boat surging through the water at double speed. Then both men bent to their oars with added en- ergy, and their heavy breathing told of the exertion they were putting forth.
 The steamer stopped and a steam launch was swung into the water. "Piff -piff" went the exhaust and the launch darted around the stern of the steamer ready for chase, but just then something broke and the launch lay helpless in the water.
 "PulI," said Bill, through his clenched teeth, and pull they did, until distance and darkness assured them of their safety.
