for their opposition 10 the ratification

with United States preoedents, with IN

HIGHER UP" MAN.
Jerome Names Party Who Took Police
and Fire Money.

New York, April $50 far as has
been determined at present, Emil a.
Sonner, to whom William B. Duke
PASSED up the money collected for jobs
in the Police and Fire departments, is
the only man higher up" According
to the District Attorneys best inform
alton ard the judgment of the Civil
Service Commission, in taking this
money Sonner was only making dupes
of lot Of ignorant men who were pay
ing for appointments which would have
come to them anyway. Nevertheless,
the District Attorneys office is not
through with the case. and is not en-
trely satisfied that there was not some
one who actually was able to manipu-
late political power or jusgle with
examination papers in some way which
would result in illegal appointments.
If there be such a parsonage or set Of
persons. the District Attorneys office
is confident it will capture the crimi-
nails.
Meantime. the only ones connected
with the appointment ring revealed by
Mr.. kresers Investigations and Will
liam b. Dukes confessions are Duke
and SOnner Duke. because of the in
formation he has given, will probably
not be prosecuted.
In the District Attorneys office are
receipts amounting to about 100000
which nave been given by Sonner to
Duke for money turned over for jobs.
This, according to Duke. is only half of
what the job syndicate has made
through it's operations. How much OF
1t Duke received he does not say. His
particular complaint is that when he
had passed up money to Sonner, hav-
ing given his own receipt to the poor
Fellow who expected to get the job, and
the job didn't materialiZe, he had to
make good on mis- receipt. while SonnAr
calmly told him to hustle for his
money. In this way, he declared in
court on Saturday, he had lost some
$4,000. Because he didn't want to lose
any more, and feared being hauled up
in court by some irate dupe, ne went to
the District Attorney with his tale.
Mr.. Jerome's impression is that Son
ner and Duke worked a delightful
bunco game. Our investigation has
not showed any one higher up than
Sonner." said District Attorney Jerome,
"and We aren't prepared to say that
there was any one higher. we've been
working pretty carefully on the case,
and it appears to be pretty much bunco.
These fellows would probably get hold
of some ignorant buffers who didn't
know enough to go to the civil Service

New York, April 21.-Today's stock mar
ket was trivial affair from whatever
standpoint it is viewed. Dealings fell still
further from small total and the tone
and action of the market We're strongly
suggestive of the condition Of deadlock
prevailing before the Northern Securities
decision was handed down by the supreme
court and which resulted in reducing the
total dealings for a full day to IS 900

the opening advance here by advancing
prices of Americans there, but offered no
substantial assistance by buying stocks
in this market. The heavy tone of Unit

factor checking this advance
AS the government has not vet made
any requisition upon the funds accumuIat-
ed to make the Panama payment it is evil
dent that as much of the requirement as
has been anticipated by gold exports or
by the provision of exchange will flow

eminent disburses it. 1t is difficult to see.
therefore, any prospect of an early change
from the condition of redundant ease in
the local money market. A number of
the high priced coalers, gas stocks and
specialties made nominal advances to-
day. Otherwise there was no feature in
