New York wherein Edmund R. Lyon, the
glove contractor under oath declared that
Representative Littauer's firm had "share'
in the government contracts, contrary to the
revised statutes of the United States, which
proclaim the offense and the penalty for a
member of congress having any interest re-
mote or direct in government contracts.
Then came the sworn testimony of Timothy
Keck, that after meeting Representative Lit
tauer in New oYrk city, he, Keck, did not
bid for certain glove contracts and was 'pand
so much pair to KEEP up. The Sun presents
fac smile Of letter written by Philip
Keck to Lyon, which is a newly discovered
document in the investigation. According to
this document Lyon paid to Keck 5000, leav-
ing unpaid $S75, (Which I trust you will re-
nit without further delay" and just beneath
Philip Kecks signature in pencil writing
appear the words, Sept TO- 99. Above paid
for account gloves, T. Keck & Son not to bid

Evidently it was a new experience for Lyon
to hold off other bidders and to pay both
Timothy and Philip Keck. Lyon has never
been a man of wealth and Representative
Littauers brother William, and brother-in-
law o. L. Richards, were Lyons bondsmen

tracts The Sun says that there other
fac SMILES of documents in existence which
might aid the authorities in bringing in q
clear cut verdict.

examination of the other defendants despite

During Judge Bonnet's searching interro-

"Monsiepr, the President: You are clearly
against us. You should disguise your feel

Governor Terrell Of Georgia Says His Let
ter Is Timely.
Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 10.-Governor Ter
rell to-day Endorsed the contents of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's letter to Governor Dur
bin of Indiana in regard to the recent
action of Governor Durbin to prevent
lynchings in that state, and gave out the
following signed statement to the Asso-
clated Press:
II think President Roosevelt is on the
right line, and I am in hearty accord with
the views he expresses. The majesty of
the law should be upheld, but at the same
time there should be a prompt and speedy
trial of the offenders in the case Of that
crime which most frequently excites the
anger Of mobs and leads to lynchings and
the punishment should not be delayed by
technicalities.
1--WE have so amended our criminal laws
in Georgia as to have speedy trials by
authorizing our judges to order a special
term Of the court to try criminals.
mo law, however strictly enforced, will
absolutely stop lynchings for assault but
speedy trials tend to lessen the number
and practically serve as a preventative OF
lynchings for other offenses.
'Tt Is interesting in this connection tc
note the numerous lynchings in the north
and northwest of late, have brought forth
such an expression from the president
while the number of them in the south has
been so few within the same period as tc
attract little or no attention."

Consul Struck Him.

Belgrade, Servia, Aug. 10.-According
to the latest reports received here regard
ing the murder of the Russian consul at
Monastir, M. Rostkovski, abused the
Turkish gendarme for not saluting him
and called him ''pig of a Turk Then
he struck the sentry with his whip, say
ing, Next time, perhaps, you will know
me-" The gendarme thereupon fired on
the consul. .-..
It is stated that M. Rostkovski was
hated by the Turks on account Of his in
tense arrogance.
M. Rostkovski had been in Macedonia
for twenty years. He knew the inside
of almost every village in the province
and was regarded as a firm friend of
the Christians. He was believer in the
tradition than an overbearing manner was
best in dealing with orientals.
Last May the consul had an experience
apparently similar to the incident which
led to his death. He went to the viii
lage of Mogil, six miles north of Monastir,
to investigate Turkish excuses there. The
Turkish troops had cOrdoned the village
and a sergeant seized the brides of M.
Rostkovski's horses and attempted to stop
the consul. The latter raised his cane
and struck the sergeant. His action placed
him in imminent danger until his iden-
tity was revealed. =

WHERE DID THEY GETIT7
PostoffIce inspectors Are Curious Regard.
ing Certain Copper Stocks.

New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Aug. 10-Postoffice inspectors
are busy trying to ascertain definitely if
George w. Beavers, former chief of the sal
airy and allowance division, has any stock
in the Yaqui Copper company, and if So how
he acquired it. They are also interested ts in
quired stock in this company, it being under
stood that one or more, in addition to Mr..
Beavers, have such stock.
The reason for this solicitude on the part of
the inspectors is the fact that the Yaqui Cop
per company was formed largely thru the
efforts of George E. Green, of Binghamton,
N. Y, and it's organization was perfected
about the time that the Bundy Manufacturing
company, of Binghamton, secured the four
years contract to supply the postoffice de-
partment with time clocks. Mr.. Green is re-
ported to be a heavy stakeholder in both
companies. AS these clocks sold on the mar
ket for from $50 to s75 and under the con-
tract the postoffice is to pay 500 to $125 for
them, Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow would like to know if there is any
connection between the holding of stock by
certain postoffice officials in the Yaqui Cop
per company and the awarding of the con-
tract to the Bundy company.

the telegraph lines have been cut in
Macedonia for some time except one by
way of Janina. Boris Saratoff the in

letter to the Saloniki company saying that
he intends to wreck their lines completely.
Despite all sorts of evidence, the Bulgar-
ian authorities persist in declaring that
not a single man has crossed the from
tier and they have not helped the in
surgents either with money or arms. Tur-
key refused to accept the Bulgarian state
ment and has modified twelve battalions

kans was never so high as now. Unless
strong ooercive measures are adopted

BALFOUR ADMITS FAILURE
Says Powers Have Not Solved the Mace.
donian Problem.


London, Aug. 1O.-The state of affairs
in Macedonia was brought up in the house
of commons to-day, but Premier Balfour
declared he was unable to give any salts
factory assurances regarding the situa-
ton.
Mr.. Balfour acknowledged the ill-suc-
cess Of the efforts Of Europe in the Mace
DOMAIN question since the signing of the
treaty Of Berlin, but he thought that the
critics of European diplomacy should not
forget the extraordinary complicated diff
ficulties of the task. There were grave
grievances arising from a deep-set dis
ease. He deplored the non-success of their
efforts to deal with the situation but he
was still hopeful that the plan recently
designed by Russia and Austria would
prove the best way of dealing with the
problem. It was, therefore, the duty of
the rest of Europe to support them as long
as their efforts were directed in no am
bilious spirit to the amelioration of the
lot of the population Of Macedonia.
It must sorrowfully be admitted, con-
tinued the premier, that the revolution
airy bands themselves were one of the
chief obstacles to, the success Of Europes
efforts. The lurid pictures drawn of the
condition Of Macedonia by his interroga-
| tor, Mr.. Bryce, was, not painted in colors
too dark. 81 ..... --....' ... ~
