So Say Acquaintance Of Junkman
Who Was Extravagant.

NEW YORK, May 23.-His exhausted
nervous system upset after a severe de
nunciation by a supreme court judge
William Reed, to whom sudden wealth
ad meant extravaganza, staggered from
th,, courtroom to the corridor of the
Kings county courthouse in Brooklyn
yesterday. and with a shrill cry fell on
the floor. physician gave him some-
thing TO quiet him. His friends then
took him away.
Reeds acquisition of wealth was sud-
cen and mysterious. He said that he
received 49, 00 last December from the
estate of a brother who had died.
AGoIph II. Goetting, counsel for Mrs
Rose Gafney, whom Reed had sued for
the recovery OF his fourteen-year old
daughter, Stella, who lived with the
Caffney family. said that Reed had no
such brother, and that he had found the
Money in an old coat Reed was q
iUnkman.
Reed, whose wife is dead. began a
career of extravaganza last December
Three weeks ago Mrs. Agnes Harmon
his wife's cousin. visited the home of
the Gaffneys and declared she was to
take Stella to her father. Stella did
rot want to go and Mrs. Carney and
Mrs. Harmon had a quarrel. Then Reed
began the suit against Mrs. Gaffney, al
loging that Stella was treated as a
drudge.
The Gaffneys said Reed was not fit to
care for the girl, that he had squandered
his money in champagne and diamonds
and that he had spent $500 for wine in
one saloon on one day. al
Stella on the stand said she preferred
to remain with Mrs. Gaffney, who had
been kind to her.
Reed admitted that he had drunk
great deal since getting his fortune. He
said that of the $4,000 he had about
$4,000 left
Reeds lawyer made a plea for his eli
ent, but Judge Dickey shook his head.
This woman" he said, has taken
care of the little girl for five years, dur
ing which the father had no interest in
her that is apparent. When he got this
fortune he should have paid this woman
well for the good care she had given to
his child. Mrs. Gaffney and her daugh-
tiers appear to be good women; there
was never any complaint against them
by this man during all the years before
he got this money. Since he has OBJ
tanned it he has been spending it in dis

BLUE BOOK RECALLED
BY STATE DEPARTMENT
FootnoteS by Minister Bowen Gave
Offense to DiplomatiStS

The State Department, acting upon a
protest made by Sir Michael Herbert,
the British ambassador. against the foot
notes contained in the Venezuelan blue
book prepared by Minister Bowen, has
recalled the issue and had a new cover
printed for it. emitting the line showing
that it was issued by the Government
Printing Office. 1t is thus made to ap-
pear as a work of Mr.. Bowen, and not as
an official document OF the State Depart
ment. despite the fact that 1t was pub
iished at the Government Printing Of
flee and paid for out OF public funds
Sir Michael was somewhat aggrieved
over some of the references made in the
book which injured his dignity. His
feelings in respect to the matter were
shared by Signor des Planches and
Baron Won Sternburg.
One of the footnotes makes it appear
that Mr.. Bowen had used the three dis
tinguished diplomatIsts as amenuenses.
and had dictated his terms to them
while they sat and wrote out his state
ments. In another place it was main
tanned that Mr.. Bowen had inserted an
explanation which was not a part of the
correspondence which is all that blue
book is supposed TO contain.

NINETEEN DOLLARS EACH
FOR NEW FLOWER BOXES
Only Forty of Them Needed for
White House Terraces.

The further adornment of the east and
west terraces at the White House with
handsome, large flower boxes, made es-
pecially 10 carry out the extensive plan
agreed upon, has been begun. The work
is under the direction of Colonel Sy-
mons, Superintendent of Public Build
ings and Grounds, and the actual work
of preparing the new movable flower
boxes with blooms of the choicest sort
is entrusted TO Capt G. H Brown, in
charge of the propagating gardens.
The original plan of a severely plain
treatment of the terraces, with only the
green os the bay trees and lockwood
bushes to offset the dead white OF the
mansion was amended at a conference
with Mrs. Roosevelt some weeks ago.
The introduction of a color scheme on
lines previously considered by Architect
McKim was agreed upon. In a short
time, therefore. probably by June i and
certainly by the date of the Presidents
return, four days later, it is expected
that the terraces Will blossom out in all

artistically arranged flower beds along
the terrace copings.
