TAYLOR BUDDING
 TEXAS OFFICIAL
YOUNG MAN WHO GAINED HIS LIBERTY ON HABEAS CORPUS PROCEEDINGS FILES WRIT OF
 PROHIBITION. 7

W. S Taylor, the young Texan who
 was given his freedom Wednesday by Chancellor Benners after habeas corpus proceedings, and re-arrested on a war
 rant sworn out by Chief of Police Wier
 on the charge of being a fugitive from justice, filed a writ of prohibition in the
 circuit court yesterday morning to pre- vent Chief Wier, Justice of the Peace
 H. B. Abernathy and Constable M. ". Parsons from prosecuting him further
 on that charge.
 When Taylor was released in the chan cery court, Chief Wier made a second affidavit preferring the charge and the warrant was served by Constable M. W.
 Parsons. In announcing his decision Wednesday Chancellor Benners ruled that
 Taylor had been held long enough. and the Texas authorities had ample time in
 which to reach Birmingham The petition
 filed by Taylor yesterday morning was
 on the strength of this ruling, and he sets forth that the Texas authorities can
 show nothing to convict him on the charge..H He ayers that the second warrant
 was served on him for the same charge as the first and that since he was re- leased in this he was entitled to his free dom.
 Judge A. A. Coleman took the petition
 under consideration and he granted the prohibition order. He was then released on bond. The case has been set for hear ing in the circuit court at 10 a. m. Jan uary g. Chief Wier, Constable Parsons and Justice of the Peace Abernathy were notified yesterday of the action of Judge Coleman and summoned to appear on the date set for the hearing.
 Before the habeas corpus proceedings
 were over Wednesday, Chief Wier re- ceived message from Sheriff w. S. Rus l sell of Sherman, Texas, stating that he had missed his train and would not be
 able to arrive in Birmingham until sev-
 eral hours late. and to hold Taylor by 1 all means" until he could get to Birming-
 ham. He reached the city yesterday l morning and spent some time trying to 1 locate Taylor, but up to late hour last
 night he had not apprehended him. He
 stated that he had the warrants for Tay-
 Tor, and that he was awaiting further l advice from Texas before taking any ac- 1 ton In the matter.

In Denmark all partles are as one in framing tneir pollcy on Ine assumption that kalser Wilhexn must at any cost be kept at arms length IL the independence ot the country Is to De maintained, while Tn Italy no attempt Is made to conceal the anxiety with which the triple alliance is now regarded, thanks to the mistrust the Kaiser inspires.
 Now. that William the Second is a dis urging element ln the world. force that
 makes for strife, cannot be denied; It is not altogether without reason that
 whatecer he does or leaves undone is re-
 garded with suspicion and excites both unrest and apprehension. This feeling prevails even among his own subjects, who frankly confess that they are never quite sure what he will do next, and would be less forried than they are if they did. None the less, there is surely
 a touch of exaggeration in the importance that is attached to his doings just now and there is undoubtedly something pos- itively absurd in the panics that manifest themselves in certain quarters every time
 he makes a speech. After all, Kaiser Will
 helm is human being, not a Mephisto- pheeS.

Insurance Missionaries.


 The ethical purpose, the true mission ary service of the life insurance business. so ably set forth by the Hon. Richard A. McCurdy has been rather obscured since his retirement from the missionary field
 Coarse, selfish, pecunlary considerations have been but too much dwelt upon. Itnis al lthe more refreshing to find that illustrlous New Jersey phllanthropist and statesman, the Hon. John Fairfield Dryden, holding high the spotless stand ard of moral propagandlsm. To work for others Is a blessed thing, as the re- , ports of MT. Dryden's great charitable foundation show. But even more blessed and more fruitful is his testimony as to the moral educational force, the char acter building, the uplifting of the lowly the industry of the industrial classes" to take out life insurance policies:
 "In my opinion industrial insurance Is the freatest factor operative today for the uplifting of the industrial classes in America. That is my opinion from an economic standpoint and as matter of public policy Industrial insurance inculcates in these people higher de- gree of self-respect and 1t tends to stim- ulate thrift. It teaches the necessity of saving The child on whose life is placed a policy of insurance Is taught almost from its cradle the value of such insurance as a protection to the family. As the boy grows older this lesson is not lost upon him. As a man he will strive to carry more insurance. The system encourages his aspiration to lift himself to a higher plane, and even though, from time to time, he permits his policy to lapse. the educational force of this ex- perience Is not lost. believe industrial
 insurance stimulates the virtue of thrift

as does no other single force operative in America today"
 Helpful words in which glows the Ire of consecration to a great idea and sur plus In itself and for itself, thrift is but sehshness When 1t is directed to the advantage of others its stature grows. it's character changes. it's common lineaments are made beautiful by self sacrifice, by devotion to the good of othersL
 It appears that the fortunate aspiring souls uplifted by the labors Of MT Dryden and his brother Samaritans get from his institution for the encourage ment of thrift somewhat less than third of what they put in. They work for him and his corps of little brothers of the poor. The industrial classes' swing and save for him. They do him good. lots of good.
 Sic vos non vobis, which is to say:
 "The little bee sucks the blossom,
 And the big bee gets the honey;
 The colored man picks the cotton,
 And the white man gets the money"
 In the face of such proofs of self abnegation, of jealous labor for others. how can anybody believe in wiekedness? Wicked men there must be to give va riety to the world: but oh. how edifyins to think of Hegeman, who looks like an apostle, and of Dryden, who is one!

A Clever culprlt.

From Harper's Magazine.
 Little Edmund, aged A. is noted for his ability to slip out of a critical situa- ton with an ease and celerity that would be noticeable in "grown-up''. He had developed a great fondness for running away, and had been threatened with a hard whipping if he left the ward again without permission. The next Sunday at- ternoon his father discovered him rac- ing off down the street, casting furtive glances backward, and taking with him little sister," a tiny toddler of 2 The father started in hot pursuit. Edmund looked back and saw his father coming Increasing his pace he made frantic effort to distance pursuit, but realizing in a moment that his father was gaining rapidly and escape impossible, he whis- pered a quick command to his little sis ter. who toddled on alone. Then, turning around to face the approaching enemy he called: Never mind, papa You can go home and rest. I'll catch little sister for you"

KAISER AS A BoGY MAN.
Many People Think He Is Waiting to
 Attack Them.

From the London World
 A Magyar was asked a month or two ago whether there was any danger of a revolution in Hungary. He seemed all most as much surprised at the question as he was manfestly indignant "A rev. olution? Mo-, indeed!' he replied em- phatically You don't suppose, surely, that we Magyars are such fools as to play into the hands of the German Kaiser in that fashion?''
 Nor is it only Hungarians, Norwegians and Poles who talk in this strain; where ever one encounters Frenchnran an Austrian, or even a Dane, one hears the same tale; nay, one is beginning to hear it also from Italians. In France even the stolid peasants, it seems, are firmly con vinced that the Kaiser Is only waiting off an opportunity to attack them; and in Austria all the world knows, or pro fesses to know, that the day Franz Joseph is laid to rest an attempt will be made to obtain good third of his dominions

NO RELIEF FOR SAVINGS BANKS.
Oden Forbade the Tax Repeal Higgins
spoke I'D For.

The town was full Of Republican legis-
lators yesterday. II one-quarter Of the
stories told by them under their breaths
are true. things are not very comfortable
OF wholesome at Albany. Probably the
most important chapter at the moment,
they said, was the failure 70 repeal the tax
on savings bank surplus. II was stated
positively and emphatcally by Republicans
In tie inner circles that Chairman Odell
before leaving for Europe had instructed
the triumvirate formed by him 20 run
things at Albany that under no circum-
stances must this tax be repealed. The
triumvirate consists OF Senators Raines
and Malby and Speaker Nixon Of the As
sembly.
The platform adopted by the party at
Saratoga on Sept. is said concerning the
savings bank tax:
IF any taxes heretofore levied, especially
such as affect the savings Of the people,
appear TO be unjust or unnecessary, we favor
such revision Of the tax laws as will equi-
tably correct such condition.
In Gov. Higgins's first message to the
Legislature, sent on Jan. 4. he recommended
the repeal OF the savings bank tax In the
following unequivooal language:
profits OF savings banks appears In It's pfac-
tical operation 20 be a Ak upon the depostors
and Is therefore contrary to the long estab-
lished policy Of the State 20 exempt from
taxation tho savings OF those who make
use Of these banks. The amount Of the tax
! II charged against the current earnings Of
| the bank and is not taken from the surplus.
| and II is claimed that the bank is therefore
| unable 20 pay the came rates OF interest 70
| depostors as it would II the tax were not
! imposed. reduction OF the interest on
these accounts is a hardship 10 those affected
| thereby. and recommend the repeal Of this
! tax The receipts from this source for the
! past fiscal year we're S72O, 900 and the revenue
! thus lost must DO made up, but at the same
! time justice seems 20 demand that this tar
! be abolished and that some more equitable
method Of raising tho amount be resorted TO.
The Legislature has been in session
| little more than three months and &C
cording TO the best information Ia TO adj
joum within a month, and yet no admins
tration bill has been introduced at Albany
to repeal the savings bank tax as prom
ised in the Republican State platform
or as recommended 80 strongly 'by Gov.
| Higgins in his message TO the Legislature
Odel forbids II, say the legislators.

HOOKER AND BISSERT CASE.
ODELL MAYBE WOULDN'T RELISH
BEING A WITNESS.

There Are Some Things That Have Not
Been Presented Against Justice Hooker
Maybe l.. n. AttaueF and W. l.. Ward
VIII 60 before Assembly Committee.
sOne Of the reasons why Mr.. 0dell left for
Europe at the time he did said Repub-
lican yesterday who is familiar with many
secret things, was because he did notwant
to be called as a witness IN the Hooker
case. Mr.. Odell was aware that there are
Republicans at Albany who desire TO get
at the bottom facts in the case and uncover
certain things which have not been pre-
sented against Justice Hooker either by the
jamestown Bar Association or by other
legal bodies interested in unfolding the in
tegrity Of the bench OF the State
Chairman Odell, Representative James
S. Sherman Representative Lucius N.
Littauer, eX-Representative William l..
Ward and a number Of other prominent
Republicans In the State are acquainted
with all the details Of the George Bissert
affair, In which Justice Hooker and Mr.,
Odell as Governor Of the State were the
principals. 1t Is very likely that the Bis
sert case will be presented 10 the Assembly
committee at Albany, Mr.. Odell was aware
that It might be investigated by that COM
mittee, and he Of course would have been
called as a witness. Mr., Littauer was in
Albany the other day, and It was said then
that be might be called as a witness before
the Assembly committee 10 tell all that took
place between Gov. Odell and Justice Hooker
at the Hotel Manhattan and elsewhere in
New York city, and Mr.. Ward Is also likely
10 be called as q witness 10 tell what he
knows about the Bissert affair and the con-
nection OF Gov. Odell and Justice Hooker
with Il.
There are a number OF new cases, con-
tinued the we'll informed Republican,
(which have been submitted 10 the James
town Bar Association and the New York
City Bar Association Of very great interest
and value TO the Hooker investigation at
Albany by the Assembly committee. II that
investigation ever gets under way
A short time ago a number Of Republicans
who fear that their party in the State Is
running on the rocks Of disaster called on
eX-Supreme Court Justice D-Cady Herricl,
the Democratic candidate for Governor
last fall at Albany and requested him 70
appear as prosecutor before the Assem-
bly, investigating committee against jus
| tice Hooker. Mr.. Herrick declined TO do
so and stated 10 his visitors that he declined
10 take the case and become a prosecutor
In the matter because Tic Investigation
should be kept out Of politics.; and that
the matter was 30 grave that nothing that
could even be interpreted as political bias
should have any part or parcel In the
, investigation.
