NAMES ARE REFUSED.
New York Editor Declines to Reveal
Source of Information.

wardman. editor of the New York
Press, who was summoned to answer
in regard to an article in that paper
intimating that doodle" and ''cor-
ruption" were being used to secure
Justice Hooker's acquittal, was a wit
ness today at the trial of Judge Hook
er before the joint executive session.
Mr. Wardman was questioned by
Senator Brack, chairman of the
judiciary committee. He said he was
unable to state who was the author of
the Objectionable article, since he was
out of town when the article was
written and he did not inquire the
writer's name after receiving the sub
poena. Mr.. Wardman gave detailed
explanation of how copy is handled in
a metropolitan newspaper office but
said nothing that shed any light upon
the source of the article under dis
cussion.
Mr.. Wardman declined to give the
names of persons who had given his
paper information which led it's editors
to expect that nothing would come"
of the Hooker trial, explaining that to
profession. Mr.. Wardman persisted in
his refusal to answer and the joint as
sembly by a vote of 96 to %, directed
the witness to answer.
Mr.. Wardman still refused to an
swer, saying:
''I refuse to commit that dishonor,' y
but he gave the substance of the in
formation.
1--WE were told" he said, that
very strong pressure would be brought
to exonerate Judge Hooker, particu-
larry by a certain corporation"
Questioned further he said that the
corporation was the Delaware and
Hudson company.
Asked if he would undertake to
bring the legislature the desired in
n inn Ea WITT to- %I,1A y
would talk with his managing editor
over the telephone and if he divulged
the names desired he (Wardman)
would give them to the legislature. "I
names," said the witness, "I'n ask

i'll. He is undergoing treatment in a
secluded place in Long Island, and it
is reported that he is in such a condi-
ton that all knowledge of the recent
developments in the society's affairs
have been kept from him. According
to statements made Mr.. Alexander
does not know that Paul Morton is at
the head of the Equitable. Neither
has he been informed of the Ryan
purchase and the installation of
Messrs. Cleveland, O'Brien and West
inEhouse as trustees. The fact of the
acceptance of his own resignation and
that of Mr.. Hyde, it was declared,
has not been made known to him, and
neither has information been con-
veyed him of the return of the syndi-
cate money nor the purport of the re-
port of the state superintendent of in

upon which the state collects taxes.

TALK OVER KELLY BOND
Executive Council to Meet for This
Purpose July Fl.

Governor Hoch today issued a call
for a special executive council meeting
on July 21. This is the day after the
time limit fixed by Governor Hoch for
the preparation of the Kelly bond, and
it is supposed that the council meeting
is chiefly for the purpose of approv-
ing or rejecting this bond.
An effort is being made to make 1t
appear that Secretary of State Burrow
and Attorney General Coleman are the
only members of the executive council
who will stand by Hoch in his efforts
to require a good bond from the state
treasurer. 1t has been intimated that
Auditor Wells and superintendent
Dayhoff will stand by Kelly. There
never has been a time yet when Treas
urer Kelly could not get backing when
he needed it from Burrow and Day

NAY Be KNOWLES
Suggested for Receivership of
First National.
James A. Troutman Has Also
Been Considered.
State Savings Bank Issues
Stockholders Circular.

Mr.. Edwin Knowles of the Central
National bank is a strong candidate
for the receiversiip of the First Ma
tional bank Mr. j. T. Bradley who is
at present the temporary receiver is
also mentioned in connection with the
permanent receiveFship. Others men,
toned are James A. Troutman, J. G.
Slonecker and Cyrus Leland. Troutman
has a strong following among the de-
positors.
The executive committee have not
settled upon any one as yet and the
above names have been simply mention
ed in connection with the office. The
executive COMMITTEES appointed by the
depositors of the First National met
yesterday in Judge S. H.. Aliens office
in the Crawford building and elected
the following officers: Sam Radges,
president; w. B.. Kirkpatrick, vice
president; ]. H. Smith, secretary and
E. H. Crosby, treasurer.
Telegrams were sent by the commit
tee to President Roosevelt and the
comptroller of the currency, asking that
the appointment of the receiverShip be
delayed until the deDositors had a
chance to present their side of the Ques-
ti@1 in the matter of whom they desired
appointed. A statement is being pre-
pared of the depositors' standpoint and
this will be forwarded. I'VE want to
keep the appointment out of politics, .
Walter Reeves who has been appoint
ed by the courts as one of the receivers
of the Devlin properties will divide au-
thority with Cyrus Leland and ]. E.
Hurley, the remaining two receivers.
There will be thus three receivers in
stead of the two first Appointed. The
statement that Mr.. Reeves would SIM
ply have jurisdiction over the Illinois
properties Is incorrect.
State Savings Bank Circular.
William Macferran of the State Saw
ings bank has issued the following cir
the condition of that bank. The State
Savings was not affected in any way
by Mr.. Devlin's failure:
ITO the Stockholders of the State Saw
ings Bank.
This bank does no commercial busi-
ness.
Neither Mr. Devlin nor any of his
companies owe the State Savings bank
anything. It has none of his or their
paper, and nothing bearing his or theii
endorsement.
1.-THE First National bank of Topeka
did owe US S4014, and no more, when
it closed it's doors; and that item was
wiped off our books a week ago.
I'VE were utterly and absolutely and
entirely outside of the trouble.
1.-The state of Kansas has no deposit
in this bank.
I'VE regret to refer to a matter OF
this kind, but you are entitled to know
the facts.
1.-The State Savings banks invest
ments are all absolutely the best, and
the institution sound throughout.
1.-THE above statement is true in every
particular.
