NO INQUIRY ON FOOT
AGAINST Mr.. MOONEY
Charges Not Filed With
Bureau of EthnOlOgy.
REQUESTED TO MAKE REPORT
Has Reference Only to His Researches
Regarding Sun Dance on
Kiowa Reservation.

Although Prof Holmes, chief of the
Bureau Of Ethnology. has requested
James Mooney TO prepare q report of his
researches concerning the recent sun
dance on the Kiowa Reservation, IL was
distinctly stated this morning that D
investigation has been ordered of the
charges made against him by Mr.. Seger.
The preparation of his report, which viii
be supported by affidavits. is merely a
defensive precaution and is to be used
in case formal charges are filed by thc
Indian Office with the Bureau Of Eth
nology.
No Official Information.
ANY investigation OF such a matter,
il is said. would be entirely irregular
unless formal charges were filed with
the bureau. So far the only information
against Mr.. Mooney has come to it
through the newspapers. II is intimated
at the bureau that 1t would be easy for
the compliments TO say that they had
been incorrectly quoted by the press.
Waiting on Indian Office.
The bureau is waiting for the Indian
ONCE TO make the charges. But it is
possible that II no charges are made,
the bureau may permit Mr.. Mooney to
publish his side of the story in order
to justify himself before the public
This is not the first charge OF the
kind Mr.. Seger has made. A year ago
he accused an army officer. his former
amnprfnr of i0n ha
barous practices This matter was in
vestigated by the Indian Office and the
army officer, 1t Is said, still occupies

LAWYER PARTRIDGE
WENT TO YAP ISLAND
Nobody Has Heard From
Him Since He Landed.
LOOKING AFTER BIG ESTATE
King O'Keefe's Savannah Wife and
Children Anxious for a Share of
Wealth Left by Potentate.

What has become of Lawyer Hart
ridge?
This is the question War Department
officials and friends of the attorney in
Savannah. Ca. are asking.
Mr.. Hartridge went TO the Isle of
zap to look after the interests of Amer
lean heirs to the estate of the famous
King O'Keefe. late sovereign of the ISL
and principality.
No steamer lines run to the island
Tramp steamers never reach there
Hartridge's only chance was to have
naval vessel land him there while cruis-
ing in the southern seas. He managed
TO get permission to have the collier
did not agree to bring him back. and
nobody has heard of Hartridge since he
went ashore there.
King O'Keefe's Will.
Dispatches from Savannah report the
arrival of a will of King O'Keefe in
that city, but it was not sent by Hart
ridge. A Hongkong law firm, Deacon &
Hastings, the legal representatives of
the Asiatic chief, King O'Keefe, mailed
it TO Savannah, to be placed on record
there
King O'Keefe was plain David OKeefe
before he left the United States and
wandered into the southern islands He
had a wife and daughter, Louise Yer
onica, in Savannah. He forgot his fam
lily relations when he arrived In zap
and married Queen Dollyboy. who sur
wives him, with six sturdy young
OKeefes.
American Wife Ignored.
When the King died. last year, his
Savannah wife and daughter commits
stoned Hartridge 10 look after their
share in the estate of the wealthy po-
tentate. But reaching the Isle OF zap
was no easy task. and getting back
from there may be even worse.
The will received at Savannah ignores
the American wife completely. but gives
the American daughter an interest IN
all realty left by the King. His real
estate holdings in Hongkong are said 10
be extensive. The names of the six
Asiatio children who are to share King
O'Keefe's fortune are Henry. Arthur

The general opinion on the floor of the

the strongest interests have combined TO
prevent further Generalization, and that
this is done as a matter Of self-protec-
tior.

statement will make an excellent show

been paid off.
The London market for Americans is
strong today, advances ranging from 4

Stocks are selling much below
value" says the Wall Street Journal"
Values will reassert themselves in due
time, and present prices will look ride
ulously cheap, and people should not be
scared into selling good stocks at this
time at such great sacrifices. We wish
there were some way of reassuring the
holders of good stocks that their prop
critics are in sound condition and that
the securities are worth holding. We
think strong people are buying good
STOCKS on a scale, and we believe that
anyone who does buy good stocks on a
comfortable margin at this point is
bound to make great deal of money
within a year"

timent turning strongly bullish toward
Americans, a marked change in this
respect having taken place within the
past few weeks.
There is believed TO remain a large
short interest which may be made, some
think, to bear the brunt of a further
advance. In several stocks whose spon-
sOrs apparently have still a perfect
control of their market, the short in
terest is thought to be vulnerable, and
it is the opinion of certain specialists
that opportunities are present for ma
nipulation of a highly sensational char
acter
Wall Street is interested in a state
ment by Philip J. Britt, assignee OF Tai
bot d. Taylor & Co., that the firm would
in all probability be able to resume bust
ness in a week. Mr.. Britt said that the
secured claims, amounting to about &c.
100000, had been practically liquidated
entirely. The unsecured claims, he
added, aggregated about $4,000, 900.

A few drops of lemon juice and few grains of cayenne added to plain melteu butter and poured over boiled asparagus lifts out of the commonplace.
 Cold asparagus tips may be fried In butter enlivened with paprika. A suspicion of onion flavor tones up dish of asparagus successfully, and chives and Spanish peppers used judiciously are excellent in dressing for It.
 Baked asparagus Is usually boiled first. only the tender parts of the stalks being baked. A bechamel sauce Is the popular one in which to encase the asparagus tips before baking. Over the top put cheese and crumbs, that the proper browning may take pace. Now this is all very we'll No one can quarrel with bechamel sauce: 1t is gen tie and refined always. But 1t does seem sometimes to be lnsipid. and especially so when anything go unobtrusive In flavor ns asparagus Is decorated with 1t. To remedy this tameness there may be used little anchoyy essence in the beehamel, or dash of horseradish, or onion juice, or few apers-anything in fact. that you have seen or heard of in connection with this sauce when used for similar purposes.
 As for trenting cold asparagus, there are innumerable ways. With just French dressing it Is always in favor; with French mustard added to the dressing It is even more In vogue, and with mayonnaise or tHrtare sauce IL rtOucneB per1tclloH. lHeH again. lemon juice and nothing more, saVe little salt, rests well on cold asparagus, only the vegetable must be chilled for all It's good points so served to be apparent.
 Perhaps list of sauces suitable for as paragus hot, with directions for mixing them, would be a convenient thing for refer ence during this asparagus season, so you shall have them:
 Bearnaise Sauce.-Beat the yolks Of four eggs till lemon colored and add to them one tablespoonful of butter and a pinch of salt. Stir over slow Are till the mixture begins to thicken. but II must not boil. Let It blend well and then pour in a teaspoonful of vim egar A few chopped chives should be added or the juice of an onion.
 Black Butter Sauee.-Browh fin a frying pan two ounces of butter add IS it Is brown ing a few drops of lemon juice and a few grains of cayenne.
 Paragon Sauce.-Cook together one gill each of tarragon vinegar and white wine vinegar. Add then four tablespoonfuls of ye- loute sauce and the yolks of two eggs to thicken It. Season we'll with cayenne and the needed salt and 1t Is ready for use.
 Bread Sauce.-Chop m onion very fine, put 1t in saucepan with four ounces of bread crumbs pressed through sieve. add little pepper salt and half cupful of rich cream. Boil gently for 10 minutes and serve.
 Sauce Bordelaise.-Peal and chop very fine four cloves of garlic and put into sauce pan with three tablespoonfuLs of olive oil. When beginning to color a bit add table spoonful of chopped parsley.

Maldens in soft diaphanous material, had surely never appeared to better advan- tage, and the all-linen suits worn by some of the men presented a pleasing change from their usual more somber attire. Distinctly stin and lnclining to dowdyism' were terms which would never apply to the thoroughly smart creations before me, many of them really beautiful from an artistic point of view.
 Tt seemed that linen could be converted into any style of garment, for up-to-date ball dresses, demi tollettes, charming fancy dresses and trim outdoor costumes all were represented. A more brilliant spectacle has seldom been seen, thought, than this gayly lighted hall, decorated by master hands, with it's throng of fair women-some of them the fairest of Erins lovely daughters-and stal- wart men, true types of Ireland s sons. The band had struck up a waltz-a waltz full or melody and exquisitey dreamy-and the dancers glided over the smooth hoor-hos- pital nurses, dark skinned gypsies and Moors. 1aunty fshwiyes, naval officers in undress uniform Puritan maidens, military officers in mess suits and crowds of others in more ordinary attire No. there could not be pret- tier costumes. l decided let them be fash toned of shlmmering satin, or silver gauge, or fimy chiffon, than these l was scrutinizing, which were only composed of pure Irish linen.'
