S. Fred Nixon, speaker of the assem-

As it was, however, there were jeers
at several points of the days testimO-

ALICE A DISAPPOINTMENT
The FilipinOs Expected to See Signs
ef Royalty

New York, Oct. 17.-By a letter just
received from Tacloban, in the Philip
pines, from the Rev. c. E. Rath, one of
the representatives of the Presbyterian
board of foreign missions in the is
lands, it is evident that the Filipinos
were rather disappointed in Miss Alice
Roosevelt.
"They had their imaginatiOns all
wrought up about the way she would
appear" says Mr.. Rath. "They had her
pictured in a royal robe sparkling with
jewels, a crown on her mead, and with
everything that should go with royal
ty. What they saw was a young Amer
lean woman i'll p very plain, white
dress, with 2. sailor hat and no dis
play of jewelry. Some of them, in fact,
did not see her, or if they did, did not
recognize her as the daughter of the
president, for they were looking for
emblems OF royalty. I am glad she
came to US as she did, for she could
have done nothing better to illustrate
the democratic spirit of America

Philadelphia, Oct. 1.-THE special
committee of seven of the select coun-
ell, appointed to investigate the affairs
of the various departments of the city,
as conducted by Mayor Weaver and
his directors, began the taking of tes-
timony today. The meeting of the
committee was not without it's sensa-
tions, chief of which was the request
to Mayor Weaver and three of his di-
rectors to leave the hearing room and
the statements of John B. Taylor, su-
perintendent of police, that David j.
Smythe, former director of public
safety, had told him not to mOlest
election repeaters. Superintendent
Taylor's statement was made despite
the vigorous efforts of Milton c. Work,
chairman of the committee, to cOnfine
him to questions produced by the COM
mittee's attorney
The committee brought out state
ments from witnesses that policemen
attended a meeting of a political club
when they should have been on duty,

the back of the room, which long ago
proved inadequate to accommodate
the counsel and witnesses summoned
and the crowd of spectators that in
creases at every hearing.
Where this important investi-
cation is going to lead, or
where it will end has caused
no small amount of conjecture and
doubtless in some quarters anxiety.
With the many threads that have been
taken up and dropped before they
have been followed to their ends in or
der that some new lead may be taken
UP and with the additional features
that are disclosed with every days
hearing. the interest grows more in
tense.
In Mr.. McCurdy's testimony today,
a feature entirely new was disclosed
and this was that the Mutual Life In
surance company employed lite.a airy
bureau to send out to the press of the
country news matter that was Of ben
eft to the company.
This information was elected during
the probing of the legal expenses
account 1t came out when d voucher
for the payment of $4,000 to Joseph
Howard jr., in 1904, was produced.
Another voucher for the same amount
paid in 1905 was marked ''repayable
on demand" and for professional
services" McCurdy had vised the
, vouchers and explained that Mr.. How
ard was a newspaper correspondent,
, and that his professional services con-
sisted in syndicating news stories.
Pressed further, Mr.. McCurdy said:
Mr.. Howard was a correspondent for
the Boston Globe and several other
papers" Mr.. McCurdy further said
that he had paid Mr.. Howard about
! S25OO a year for these services, and
| that the voucher for May, 1905, was
really a loan or an advance
During the earlier session of the day
an attempt was made to obtain from
/ Mr. McCurdy the reason for reducing
J the dividends on policies as the bust
/ ness increased and the assets piled up
This question was prompted by the
4 large number of letters received from
f poIicyholders by the committee and
J cited facts and examples. These let
! ters came from all over the country
/ Mr.. Hughes explained. but he read q
/ number from policyholders who lived
