TESTIMONY
is BROUGHT OUT
Sam Is Said to Have Declared He Had
Enough to Last Him for Life.

NEW YORK. Oct 2S.-Benjamin Thack-
ara was the first witness today in the
trial of Samuel Parks on the charge of
extortion. Thackara was sent by the Tiff
fanny corporation to see Parks to ascer-
tain why work on buildings here was
stopped last December Parks said, ac-.
cording to the witness: Tiffany is fined
$500 and if you are not prepared to settle
send Tiffany to me-"
David Frazee, general superintendent
employed by the Tiffany studios, told of
his interview with Parks in a saloon JAM

was fined $500. Later on the same day
Frazee, accompanied by Louis Schmitt,
treasurer of the Tiffany corporation Wis
tied Parks in his own home Schmidt
asked Parks. the witness said why the
fine" of $500 was imposed, and Parks
Now you are fined $500 and you are
getting off light. 1t ought to be $1,000.
l am not in this business for my health,
and you're getting off easy. Other firms
don't wish to pay you can fight it like
some other firms, who changed their
minds pretty quick
Schmitt according to the witness, then
said:

GOVERNOR GENERAL STABBED.
Three Would Be Assassins Fail and
Are Shot to Death.


TELLS, Russian aTranscaucasia, Oct.
2S.-Prince GalitZin, governor general
of the Caueasia, had narrow escape
from assassination today on the out
skirts of the town. Three natives
stabbed the governor general thrice.
They fed, but were shot down by Cos
sacks.
Prince Galitzin was driving with his
wife when the weuld-be assassins
rushed upon the carriage, daggers in
hand Two seized the governor general
and attempted to drag him from the
vehicle, while the third man inflicted
two ugly wounds on the princes head
and third cut on the hand.
A Cossack who was in attendance
upon the prince threw himself upon the
assailants. While hand to- hand fight
was in progress, the carriage was
driven off at a gallop. Ultimately the
assailants fled, followed by mounted
guard of sCossacks.
The Cossacks chased the fugitiyes
through the brush, firing constantly
with their rifles. They killed one man
Instantly. The other two were shot
down and died soon afterward.
After his injuries had been dressed,

PLAN TO FORM POOL
Western Lines Will Divide Army
and Navy Business.

A settlement is in sight of the strife be-
tween Western railroads for the past year
over military and naval business. In a
general way plans have been made for
dividing that business equitably among
all the railroads. Traffic of a government
nature is exempt from the provisions of
the interstate commerce law, and most
of the railway officials believe they have
a right to pool the military and naval
traffic
The only question is whether it is con-
trary to the Sherman antitrust law. 1t
Is the general opinion of railway officials
that if the rates are satisfactory the gov
eminent will not try to punish the rail-
ways under the antitrust law for divid-
ing the profits from the transportation of
officers and men of the army and navy
and their equipment
If it is decided that a general division
OF the cash profits from military and
navy traffic might be attacked under the
antitrust law, the railway officials will
form what is known as a physical pool,
under which each road will haul a share
of the traffic

LAMsDoRFF IN PARIS.
Much Importance Is Attached to the
Visit of the Russian.


PARIS, Oct. 28.-Count Lamsdorff,
the russian foreign minister, arrived
mere today. M. Delcasse, the French
minister for foreign affairs, met him at
the railroad station. The visit absorbs
the attention of the public and the
press, who attribute to it even more
important political significance than to
the visits of King Edward and King
Victor Emmanuel to Paris. The news
papers generally agree that the foreign
ministers will discuss the Eastern and
far Eastern questions. but it is said
IN authoritative quarters that the stu
alton In the far East is not likely to
occupy so mucheattention as expected,
since Admiral Alexieff, the Russian
vlceroy of the far East, has been given
practically supreme authority over the
neSessituation. The Mac
edonian situation certainly will be gone
over and sonlesf mportant details of the

Rowing Over Whistler.

LONDON, Oct. 29.-An acrimonious
correspondence is proceeding in the
Post as to whether the art of the late
James Mcneil Whistler, the American
painter, is appreciated in his own
country. Marion H. Spielmann, editor
of the Magazine of Art, contends that
Whistler received no official recogni-
ton in the American art world. Joseph
Pennell, the artist, maintains that
Whistler received the highest awards
at exhibitions in America as well as
other evidences of genuine appreciation
from his fellow countrymen.
