GENERAL C. ". RUSSELL
BACKS BUNAU-VARILLA
Says Engineer Is Honest Man and Has
Not Made Penny Out of
Canal Sale.

Assistant Attorney General Charles
W. Russell, In a statement given out at
the Department Of Justice today, de-
fends Gaptain Bunau-Varilla. against
whom allegations have been made that
he has profited materially by his con-
nections with the Panama canal
General Russell says the French en-
gineer has not made one cent in the
venture, and further, would not have
become associated with Uncle Sam in
the project had he not desired to see
the great canal completed
Captain Bunau- Yartlla was connected
with the project under the French, Cen
eral Russell says, and that it was solely
through the captains argument that
France acquiesced TO our purchase Of
S7,50o,Oo0 of stock and many millions of
other valuable assets that gave us con-
troll of the unfinished canal
General Russell says Captain Bunau-
Varflla has always borne the name of
an honest, straightforward man, and
the reports about his having become i'm
mensely wealthy Is purely idle gos-
sip"
NJ. BunauVarilla, himself, recently
made Il similar statement.

SHOULD RETRIEVE
HONOR AT ACADEMY
Efforts of President and Secretary Bonaparte in nveS
eating Affair Which Caused BranchS Death No
Doubt Vigorous Step in Right Direction

to has long been an exploded notion In
this country" 1t never took ready root
in some quarters. but the shocking man
Hesitation of it has by no means been
confined to this instance at the Naval
Academy. An actual assault is properly
resisted. But an agreement with another
to determine a question of right by a
resort to the fist or to deadly weapons
is both brutal and cowardly.
There is need Of a revised code of
honor. not only at Annapolis but In all
our institutions Wrongs that are real
and serious are subject to correction by
constituted authorities - boards and
courts of justice, whose creation and use
form the distinction between barbartsm
and civilization. And such as are fancied
manifestation of the scorn and con-
tempt, or the total indifference, they de-
serve, rather than by doubtful trials of
personal violence.
There is little enough at the very
best in our institutions which prepare
for the exigencies OF war to refine,
elevate. or ennoble the character Of our
young men who choose the military pro-
fesgion: and IL should be with those who
direct and instruct a solemn and sacred
duty to so temper the natural tendency
that in all the circumstances of future
life they may prove themselves gentle
men of the highest most truly
Christian type as well as the most skill
ful and heroic of soldiers and seamen IN
the time OF peril.

To the Ealtor Of The washington Times:

To the Editor Of The Washington Times:
I cannot too highly commend your edi-
torial of the sth instant, under the cap
tion of Honor at the Academy. 1t Is
so rational. humane. and Christian that
it cannot fail of the most hearty ap-
proval of the gallant new Secretary of
the Navy and our valient yet peace-lov-
ing President who have but to say the
word to change the tone of affairs at
that time -honored institution.
That matters have come to the pres
ent pass implies either a false sentiment
or a lack of right sentiment there. which
those high officials viii. of course, be
prompt to locate and rectify. They can
not bring 10 life young Branch. of do
much to soothe the sorrows of those to
whom his life was very dear: nor can
they wholly retrieve the lost honor of
the Academy. But they can and will
mplant there a sentiment so wholly
just and true. and make its culture so
sure, that any like dishonor viii hence
forth be impossible.
The doctrine of The Times, and its
condemnation of 1.-The foolish theory that
an Injury done a man can be healed by
that persons submitting himself to the
chances of physical hurt at the hands
Of the insulter," should have universal
approval. But I am not quite sure that
the absurd and beastly theory referred

JUDGE KIHBALL WANTS
WIFE-BEATER BEATEN
Advocates Whipping Post for Men Who
Strike women-Sentence to Jail
Not Adequate Punishment.

Judge Kimball is an advocate of the
whipping post for wife beaters.
Thomas Keene, eolored, who beat and
cut his wife in frenzy of rage, was
sentenced to six months in the work
house and the sentence suspended as
long as he behaved. This leniency was
shown as the man is the sole means of
support of his wife and little baby.
If l had the authority 1 would have
that man sent to, jail and a proper
number Of lashes put across his back.
would then have him released and
see that he worked to support his wife
and child.
This is a very hard case for me to
dispose or. as / am inclined TO meas
ure out the severest punishment, but
II DO that the wife and child will be
the ones to suffer and not the man.
That is the great trouble in cases OF
thlS sort. There is no adequate pun
lshment whereby the offender alone
Will suffer"

Never Got Money.
Time after time the firm is said to
have endeavored to secure the amount
due, but was unsuccessful.
On two occasions checks for small
amounts on the Union Savings Bank
were given them. but were turned down
as worthless. according to report.
Catherine Gault is said to have kept a
boarding house IN Washington. which
was furnished sumptuously. Her board
ers were men high in official life. It is
stated that Gen. Joseph Wheeler board

Held Good Place.
She held a 81 200 Government elerkship

NEW YORK, Nov. 1s.-The advance
in call rates went to 20 per cent, and
larse business was done at that figure.
and the higher time-money market was
reflected in some discrimination in loans
and shifting Of accounts
Renewed liquidation was in evidence,
although the selling was not disorderly.
The declining tendency was so general
as TO make reference to particular
stocks unnecessary. London sold On bal
snce.
Caused Heavy Selling.
The money strlngency overshadowed
everything else. and caused heavy sell
ing. Prices since the opening sustained
material declines. ranging from to S1z
per cent in a number Of the active IS
sues with greater declines in higher
priced specialties.
London traded on both sides to a
moderate extent, buying about $4,000
on balance in the first hour. The mar

lower level OF prices, and the pressure
of stocks. and it was general comment
that there was a good demand for the
