Redwood. bat Hes stin In jail.
Supreme Court Justice Greenbaum re-
duoed the bail Of DR.. r. c. Flower yester-
DAY from $4,000 to 5000. Ex-Justice
rursman OF counsel for Flower declared
IL TO DO outrageous that man who was

In reducing the bail Justice Greenbaum
said that IL the prisoner has been guilty
OF other offences he could be separately
arraigned for them.
Dr.. Flower Is still in the Tombs under
$4,000 bal. notwithstanding this reduction
OF the $4,000 bail set by Judge Foster Of
the General Sessions on the indictment
Of wednesday charging Flower with the
larceny Of $500 from Mrs. Belle Gray Taylor.
The Grand Jury filed four new indictments

R. G. Dun 4 co. MEN EXAMINED.
HEARING or INTERNATIONAL
AGENCY'S CHARGES.

Lawyer Gatens and r. l.. Minton. q Partner
Of Dun 4 Co., We're Arrested for Con.
splracy After They'd Been Talking TO
an Ex.EmpIoyee OF the Rival Concern.
The examination of Peter r. Gatens,
one of the lawyers Of II. @. Dun a Co.,
and Francis l.. Minton, a partner in the
concern. on a charge Of conspiracy to
injure the business Of the International
Mercantile Agency. was begun yesterday
afternoon before Magistrate Pool In the
Tombs police court.
Francis l.. Wellman and ex-Magistrate
Simms appeared for Gatens and Minton
and Assistant District Attorney krotel
conducted the case against them assisted
by T.. II. Hawke, Jr., counsel for the Inter-
national com pany. The only witness
yesterday was Central Office Detective
Gargan. who arrested the two men at the
Eastern Hotel after hearing conversation
between them and Charles +. Fowler,
a former employee of the International
company.
Gargan said that the substance Of the
conversation was that Gatens and Minton
wanted general statement from Fowler
and wanted him also TO say that he had
seen employees of the concern copying
from The rating books Of Dun Co.
Fowler, Gargan said, told them that he
had not seen this.
Then they asked some questions about
Fowler's connection with the concern and
n paper was drawn up which Gargan said
Fowler was told to sign at the bottom OF
the page, leaving half Of II blank.
This paper was put in evidence. II makes
Fowler say that he had seen employees
copying ratings from Dun 4 Co.'s reference
book and lot of other things which he
denies saying.
Mr.. Wellman drew out on cross-examina-
ton that Gargan had heard the defendants
say they wanted Fowler TO tell them only
the truth and that Gargan had arrested
the two men without a warrant for con-
spiracy.
Gargan declared that he had reason to
believe that Mr.. Minton was going to con-
vert the paper into an affidavit This
brought from Mr.. Wellman an angry de.
mand for the name Of the person who had
given Gargan this idea. II finally devel-
oped that Harvey NJ. Thomas, a lawyer at
220 Broadway, who is to be witness for
the prosecution. was the man.
The hearing was adjourned to Monday.

THE o PROBLEM.
One Summary Of the Whole Common
sense GOSPEL of the Movement.


From Alice Katharine Fallows' Temp
tations to Be Good in the December Cen
fury: Not long ago, a minister Of the ad-
vance guard in social ideas, who has a
parish house in one of the most crowded
blocks of New York, was explaining his
work to a visitor interested in the boy
problem.
S''NNe have a club ROOM" he said, where
our older boys and men play pool or bill
lizards, or have any game OF cards they
like that is not gambling"
The visitor, whose religious IDEAS had
not been revised since the rigid days Of
her youth, gasped. you don't mean that
you permit those denominations under the
wing of the church," she a~sked-"in the
shadow of the sanctuary, one might say?'
Certainly. madam" was the answer.
I'VE think the devil has had q monopoly
Of these amusements long enough. They
are harmless in themselves. The saloon
used them as a bait for drunkenness and
vice. We use them to tempt boys back to
morality. You ant fight a devil who
offers shelter, light, warmth and comfort
TO those who have none, with good advice
and tracts on a cold street corner"
IN this one sentence is the whole com
mon sense gospel of the new movement
to- take a boy as he is, not as he ought
to be, and to give him what he lacks.

Yet on the level.
Thou mindst me,

Thou art less swift, less fatal
Than he
But that's not your fault.
You've had to work for a living,
And never learned
To break the speed ordinance.
Mere l a millionaire
I'd bring you into society
And give you a show. !,
No auto
For me.
I'd rig up a steam roller touring car
And latten out the population
From Maine to California.
Avaunt, red devil!
I'd reduce the census properly
