liminary hearing that would disclose the
nature of the evidence against him. Mr..

for the Southern district of New York.

Beavers. one for receiving a bribe Of
$40 and the other for receiving q bribe
of $240
Beavers hurried into the Office OF Nor
gan & Seabury at 1:25 o'clock this

outsiders
Mr.. Seabury said for him. however:
1T is untrue that Mr.. Beavers, as
reported. saw Postmaster General Payne
on the revenue cutter Onondaga. OFF
Tompkinsviile. on Saturday. 1t is also
untrue that Mr. Beavers is to give tes
timony for the Government.

Political Matters.
CARDINAL GIBBONS MESSAGE

American Prelate.
CARDINAL GIBBONS MESSAGE

OYSTER BAY, July 2O.-Mr. and Mrs.
Whitelaw Reid took luncheon at Saga
more Hill today and after the repast
President Roosevelt and the diplomat
editor had a conference on political and
international matters.
Mr.. Reid, from his wide experience
abroad, is regarded by the President as
an excellent authority on foreign
problems and is frequently consulted.
Mr.. Reid said that his visit was merely
social one" and could not have any
public interest.
1t is significant that the President is
gradually going through the list OF
prominent RepuF leans in the East In
his guest selections this summer Thus
far he has entertained Senators Hanna
Fairbanks. Kean. Dryden, Lodge and the
junior Senator from Indiana Mayor Low
or New York. and a long string of
smaller politicians from the Empire
State. Nearly all these men have said
when interviewed. that they came to
make Social" calls.
The Gibbons Dispatch.
Some little comment was caused by
the publication OF Cardinal Gibbons
reply to the Presidents message of
sympathy TO Rome. Many were sur
prised that Gibbons signed IT, believing
that the message should have come
from Rampoila. who is secretary of
STATE. II is believed that Cardinal Ram
polla handed the message to Cardinal
Gibbons, because. in the first place. the
latter was the only American member
or the college. and. in the second. be-
cause ne is known to have friendly rela-
tions with the President.
The message signed by Cardinal Glib
bons was the first intimation given to
the public that the cardinal was in
Rome. When last heard from he was
in France awaiting the result of the
Pope's illness.
