Ex-L1eutenant Governor of Missouri
 Testfies Against Farris.
 Jefferson City, Mo-, Nov. 4-In the trial of Senator Paris, charged with bribery, former Lieutenant-G John A. Lee took the stand today. He said he asked Farris to help defeat the bill to re- peal the law prohibiting the use of alum in baking powders.
 Farris, witness testified, said 1t could be easily done by holding the bill to com mittee, but that the bill was an important one to the Royal Baking Powder Com- pany and the boys needed money. He wanted $7,000, of which $1, 900 was to 20 to each of six members of the committee on criminal jurisprudence of the Senate and $1,0Oo to the Senator who introduced the bill.
 Lee arranged by telephone and tele- graph, he said, with Daniel J. Kelly to get the money.A check for $500 was re- ceived by Lee and deposited in the Amer ican Exchange Bank of St. Louis.
 The bill was defeated and he drew out SOOO of the money and gave 1t to Sena- tor Farris in his room at the Laclede Hotel Paris divided the money into packages of $1.OOO each. Lee got $,6O0 for his interest in the matter.

CASE OF LYNCHEHAUN.
Another Attempt May Be Made to
 Extradite Him.


 Indiana polls. Nov. 4.-Assistap United States District Attorney LaFolette. who assisted counsel for the British Govern ment in the effort to extradite James Lynchehaun, the released Irish fugitive, says a warrant may be sworn out against Lynchehaun before some of the United States Courts outside of Indiana in a further effort to have him sent back to Ireland to serve out his life sentence.
 It is urged. however. that there is one point that may be raised against this plan. The extradition treaty provides that when a crime for which extradition process Is sought has been judged to be a political offense by a representative of the government from which extradition Is sought" the conclusion of the officer shall be final. MT. La Toilette contends that the commissioner is not a representa- tive of the government" in the proper interpretation of the treaty. The Sec retary of State. he says. Is meant. and Is the only person who could pass on the question of the political character of Lynchehaun's offense.

ROME AND THE PHILIPPINES,
HARTY TALKS OF
WHAT HE HOPES TO DO.
The Head Of the Church in Manila Says
That He Will Favor Native Priests
and That He Wishes to Have Them
Trained In America When Possible.

The Most Rev. j. j. Harty, Archbishop
OF Manila, arrived in New York yesterday
on La Touraine from Rome. The Arch
bishop will remain here until Tuesday,
when he will 60 TO Philadelphia to attend
the golden jubilee Of Archbishop Ryan
He expects then to proceed to ST. Louis
his old archdiocese, where he will stay
until November, when he will start for the
Philippines
Archbishop Harry was conseorated in
Rome on Aug Is by Cardinal Satolli, and
lium was bestowed upon him two days
later, Archbishop Harty had this to say
last night of his plars:
The council of Bishops in the Philip
pines which was ordered by Pope Leo Nil
was delayed until the American hierarchy
should have been established there As
soon as | am settled at Manila and all Of
the Bishops are there. the council will
probably be called by Mgr. Gudi, and the
new laws for the islands will be promu-
gated. The apostolic constitution will
then be defined, This is about the same
as that resolved upon at the council of
Bishops held in Rome some time ago
known, commonly as the Latin American
council.
Asked if he would take American priests
to the Philippines, Archbishop Harry said:
i shall make use, As far as possible, Of
the native priests. believe in this policy
1t cannot be too strongly enforced. or
course. should like to have some American
priests there. and believe that they would
prove OF great value to us in the work
But ] believe the Offices ard high places AZ
far As is possible should go to the natives
We can Americanize them, and this is the
surest, noblest way.
THE report that | have received sub
stantial endowments for seniraries from
Rome ia urfour ded. did receive hand
some purse from the clergy and my pa
rishioncrs in st. Louis, AT d this shall use
in my work, II we need money, we may
call upon Rome for IT. al the Philippines
are missionary country. But this Is
not now coEtemp plated.
i shall, al soon ar practicable, choose
from the applicants for the Summaries a
number Of Filipino boys to come here 70 the
United States to be educated | shall also
send some 10 Rome. But it il the policy
TO have he poiit lca and social spirit Of the
future clergy OF the Philippines formed
here IN the United States Students will he
sent To- all the American universities in fact
This plan cannot he developed too far
shall not ask any Of the st Louis
priests to 20 10 the Philippines with me
shall - there first and see the require
ments and the trials which would confront

quests from our clergy"

LITTAUERS BOOM A SURPRISE.
Many Of His Constituents Couldn't Believe
He Would Seek Reelection.

UTICA, Sept. 5.-Congressman Littauer.
who entertained Gov. Odell, Congressman
James S. Sherman and other persons
prominent in the political arena at dinner
in Gloversville Thursday night, sprung big
surprise upon his constituents when he
launched his boom for reelection The
scandal which has surrounded the Con-
gressman's name following the revelations
in the glove contract affair and Littauers
conceded political acumen warranted the
belief that he would retire from the political
stage when his present term had expired
The surprise, therefore, hereabouts at the
launching Of his boom for another term in
Congress- is great. II is understood that
Lttauers ambitions have the hearty in
dorsement OF Gov. Odell The Utica

rather premature close about o clock this
afternoon. when the rain came down in tor
rents. completely submerging the track
and making further racing impossible.
The 20s class trot. which was the feature OF
the days racing. had been completed, how
ever. and was won by Dan T. in straight
heats. The best rhythmic, the favorite. could
do was to divide second and third money
with Prince OF Orange
The PIP trot, which was continued from
Friday, on which day one heat had been
run and won by Promise, was won by that
horse. who captured the second heat yester-
day easily.
The ?:is pace was not finished, but first
money was given to Annie NJ. who had two
heats TO her credit. Henry H., who had won
two heats OF. the 2:ls pace. received first
money. and the 2:1O pace was declared on
as 1t had not been called up to the time the
rain began to fail
