tonight or tomorrow to appear for the
state before the United States supreme
court for the final argument of the cor
poration franchise tax case which has
been pending before the various courts
of the state and nation since the law
was enacted six years ago. While the
papers in the case mention only a few
large New York corporations which
have taken up the prosecution of the
matter, every corporation in the state,
large or small, is interested in the re-
suit. If the decision of the court Of ap-

MYSTERIOUS TRUNKS.
Eight of Them Are Figuring in the
Beef Trust Case.

Chicago, April 1.-THE contents of
eight mysterious trunks unearthed by
government secret service men in the
vaults of the National Safe Deposit
company is occupying the attention of
the federal grand jury which is in
vestigating the business affairs of the
so-called beef trust. A subpoena
duees tecum for Daniel Peckham, sec
retary of the Safe Deposit company,
was issued by Judge Lands to force
the company to produce the trunks in
the jury room. The trunks were taken
to the office of District Attorney Nor
rison, where it is said they were
opened and their contents examined.
and what their connection with the
present investigation may be is un-
known to those outside of the jury
room, as the government officials ab-
solutely refuse to discuss the matter,
declining to deny or confirm the eX-
PLANTATION current that the trunks be-
long to the packers and are filed with
tell tale records
81 do not know a thing about these
trunks said Secretary Peckham,
after having been served with the
subpoena. IT was served with a sub
poena to deliver them to the govern
ment officials at once, and of course
did so. I cannot say who deposited
the trunks in the vaults here, because
that would be violating business ethics
and not in keeping with our policy.
All that I know is that I was served
with a subpoena by a deputy marshal
and I did what I was commanded to
do. All I can say is that a large, well
dressed man with a smooth shaVen
place and deposited the trunks with

MONEY IS UNCLEAN.
Another Clergyman Expresses Himself
on Rockefeller Donation.

Boston. April 1.-THE committee
representing the Congregational
clergyrnen who have protested against
the acceptance by the American
board of commissioners for foreign
missions of a gift of 100000 from
John D. Rockefeller, has made public
mass of correspondence received
from all sections of the country and
in which the stand of the protestants
is approved In comparatively few in
stances are the names of the writer's
made public, but those announced in
clude Prof Hugh n. Scott, Chicago
Theological seminary; Rev. H. Thayer,
home missionary superintendent for
Kansas, and Rev. J. c. Armstrong, s1-
perintendent of Chicago Missionary
society
In tone the letters range from
mildly argumentative opinion to bit
ter expressions of disapproval of the
recommendation of the prudential
committee.
Prof Scott says he believes the
Lord does not yet want robbery for
burnt offerings or the price of a
dog" to enter his treasury.
Supt. Armstrong says the money is
unclean and the church knows it, and
adds:
I'VE do know for a shameless dis
regard for the rights of our fellow
men the Standard Oil company stands
out as the most conscienceIess, brazen
and dangerous corporation this coun-
try or any other country has ever
produced" ."
