CLEWS TO IDENTITY,
Little, Inconsidered Things That
Help Detectives and searchers.

HeAp detectives and Searchers.
From the New York Sun.
The number of clews each of us car
ries with us every day of our lives, and
by which detectives could surely iden-
tify us, is endless.
Take clothes first of all. A man, as
a rule, gets all of his clothes from the
same tailor; whether he does or not,
and however carefully he endeavors to
cut off every tag and mark, that tailor
would have no difficulty in identifying
the garments he has made. Thread.
stitching, buttons, lining-all tell their
own tale. More particularly so do what
tailors call specials These are sim
ply special professionalism pen and
pencil pockets, eye-glass pockets, watch
pockets lined with wash leather, cigar,
ticket, flask and inner waistcoast
pockets.
A watch brought a murderer to JUS
tice about four years ago. 1t was not
a stolen one, but his own, that he had
had for years. His defense was an
alibi. He very nearly proved that he
had not been at the scene of the crime
within three months of the date of the
murder Had not one of the detectives
jewelers. apprentice the man would
have got Off But inside the criminals
watch case was the record, written so
that only a matchmaker could read it,
that the watch had been in the hands
of a jeweler for repairs the very day
before the murder. The watch was sub
mitted to a number of watchmakers,
and at last recognized by one who had
put into 1t a new handspring. The
alibi was broken down, and in the end
the prisoner made a full confession.
The man who has ever gone 10 a
good dentist has left behind him a life
long record which would enable that
practitioner TO identify him with abso-
lutte certainty. Such a dentist makes
note OF every tooth he stops, and more
particularly what he puts In II. Stop
pings are Of dozens of different kinds In
these days. Plain gold or plain ANAL
gam II comparatively rarely used. Gold

M nExRINC on RECIPRoCITy
Chairman Pay ne Makes n Statement
ON Revenue Reduction.


Washington, Feb. chairman Payne
of the House Ways and Means Com
mittee has authorized the following
statement:
"a report is being industriously cir
culated to the effect that the Ways and
Means Committee, by taking. action on
the bill reducing war taxes, has indi-
rectly sought to dispose of the subject
of Cuban reciprocity. Nothing could be
further from the facts. The fact Is that
the Ways and Means Committee has
taken no vote on the subject of Cuban
reciprocity, nor has there been any
such conference or exchange of views
among the members or among the Re-
publicans of the committed as would
warrant any conclusion that there was
no purpose to deal with the subject OF
Cuban reciprocity. The bill 20 reduce
war revenue taxes was taken up be-
cause II was the sentiment Of the COM
mittee that the burdens resting upon
our own people should be lightened be-
fore we turned our attention TO light
ening the burdens OF other people"

ONE GRANTED, ONE DENIED.
New Trial for George Schroeder,
but None for Henry.

Arguments upon motions for new
trials filed by the defendants in the
cases against George and Henry
Schroeder were heard by Judge Barrow,
in the Superior Court, yesterday morn
ing. In the case against Henry
Schroeder a new trial was refused,
while in the case against George
Schroeder 1t was granted.
Both defendants were convicted last
summer of the offense of Keeping open
tipping house on Sunday, and both
were sentenced to pay fine of $3.50
and costs.
George Schroeder contended that he
ran a green grocery store in connection
with his grocery and liquor business,
and that he had kept open his place of
business on the day in question in Or
der to supply fresh meats to his Gus
toners, as he is permitted to do by the
city ordinances. He declared that he
had not had his bar open at all.
The evidence on this point was suf-
ficiently conflicting to induce Judge
Barrow to award a new trial and he
so decided and ordered.

CASHIER TOOK $17s, 900.
Matteson's Shortage Much Larger
 Than First Reported.

Helena. Mont. Feb 19.-A special to The Independent from Great Falls, Mont. says that H.. H. Matteson. who, on Jan. uary 5, confessed to embedding S75 ooo from the First National Bank, while acting as cashier, is now known to have taken SITS, 900. his operations extending over three years. The,,fa were made known at a meeting of the bank directors yesterday. and another complaint was sworn out against Matteson, who was out on 5000 bail. He was taken before a Commissioner and his bail fixed at $15,o00. the new charge being that he embedded $s5, 900 on October %.
 Matteson was not found until late last night. He could not furnish the new bond and he, will probably be taken to Helena and lodged In jail.
 National Bank Examiner Lazear states that if Matteson should secure bail on the second charge he would at once be ar rested on a charge of embedding SIS, ,0oo The bank officers became convinced that Matteson was preparing to leave and that was the principal reason for having him arrested on a second charge and having bail increased.

HIS PoL1rENEss REWARDED.
Millionaire Repays Conductor for
 Courteous Treatment.

Chicago. Feb. 19.-Llewellyn Mason, a conductor on the Chicago & Alton Rail- road. has just received assurance that courtesy to the travelling public some- times has its reward.
 When the will of W. A. Tyler, a Bloom ington millionaire, was probated yester- day, 1t was found to contain the follow ing clause:
 ITO Llewellyn Mason I beaueath the sum or $1,OOO as recognition of the courteous treatment accorded me while travelling on the-Alton road"
 Conductor Mason Is over 60 years of age and has been a conductor on the AL ton for nearly thirty years. He now runs suburban train between Chicago and Joliet.
 MT. Tyler was exceedingly curious when travelling and was wont to ask many questions. In 1888 he happened to take a train upon which young Mason was con ductor and Mason spent all of his spare him.
 Three or four times each year Mason carried the rich man between Jackson ville and Chicago and later between Bloomington and Chicago. and he never tired ouce from the old mans questions,

He spoke of the effort of building up American schools in the Philippines as .mawkish sentimentality," saying that the system could be of no avail in view of the fact that the teachers sent over know nothing of the language of the Ell ipinos and the Filipinos nothing of the English language.
 MT. Money (Miss) replied to some points in the speech made by MT. Mitch ell few days ago, contending that our failure to recognize the independence of the Filipinos at any time could have no bearing on the question of their standing as a people. The important question was not what shall be done for the Filipinos. continued Mfr Money, but what should be done for our owh people. Our posi- ton, he argued, is liable to bring on war with other nations at any time when the $1 ,500, 600 per week expenditure Of the present time would be vastly increased.
 He made an appeal for fair discussion of this question. saying that Senators should consult their constituents and forget that there is any such thing as executive patronage. We should get rid of the islands in our own interest, Mir. Money went on. especially for the pur- pose of eradicating from our country the practice on the part of Congress of con- ferring autocratic powers on the execu- tive.
 We will find before we terminate this experiment. he said. that the saddest day of our history is the day that we signed the Spanish treaty."
 Mir. Money denounced the Taft Commis- sion as. 'uselessly perniclous."
 Mir. Foraker said he did not believe that Mir. Moneys despairing view of the situation on the Philippines is generally shared. Replying to MT. Tillman, MT. Foraker said the people of Louisiana had not been allowed to elect a Governor or the judiciary of that territory and that the government established in the Phil- ippines Is far more liberal than the gov- ernment established in Louisiana by Jef- ferson and the Democratic Congress of that day.
 The Governor of the Philippines Is the Governor by appointment" said Mir. For aker. "and he is as much Governor as MT. Claiborne was Governor of Louisi- ana under Jefferson's appointment"
 Messrs Tiilman and Money called at- tention to the fact that Claiborne's nom- nation had been conf med by the Sem ate, while no such confirmation had taken place in the appointment of Governor Taft.
 Mir. Foraker said that neither in the case of Louisiana nor the Philippines had the people been bought when the territory became part of the United States. and there is. he contended, no more desire to attempt to govern the people of the Philippines without their consent than there was in the case of the people of Louisiana.
 Messrs. Tillman and Carmack made the point that an early promise of Statehood had been made in the case of Louisiana, and that their protest was not against coming into the United States.
 After some further discussion, the Sem ate. at 5:25 p. m., adjourned.
