late Speaker Reed to fill the office he
now holds with Speaker Cannon. AS
all the woxld knows, Mr.. Reed himself
was one Of the greatest parliamentary
ans that ever lived, but he freely ad-
mitted that much of his reputation
rested upon the aid he had received
from Asher Kinds, whose unerring
memory and judgment enabled Mr..
Reed at times to make prompt decis7
ions that were regarded as marvels OF
parliamentary practice. =,
Mr.. Kinds is native of Maine and
began his study of parliamentary rules
in the Maine legislature, where his
usefulness and knowledge attracted
the attention of Mr.. Reed. When the
republicans regained control of the
house in the Fifty-fourth congress, Mr..
Reed against brought Asher Kinds to
Washington and he has been here ever
since serving with Mr.. Reed, then with
Speaker Henderson and now with
Speaker Cannon. He stands at the
speakers desk with his book of rules
at his hand and his own published
book of rules and precedents ready for
reference. When any question arises
on the floor requiring a decision, he in
stantly turns to the required rule and
precedent for the guidance of the
speaker Seldom if ever is a decision
based on his information overruled in
the house.

will bring about a reorganization
which shall GUST Odell without af-
fording Plat chance to resume the
power. The time is ticklish. A gov.
ernor is to be elected next year. The
next senator will certainly be a new
man. He will have enormous powers
as to patronage. Whatever temporary
arrangements are made, I look to see
some man like Nevada Stranahan,
young, clean and aggressive, emerge
as leader of the party in the state.
The payment of $4,000 to Odell by
the pollcyholders of the Equitable AS
surance society-it amounted to that.
through the trust company which the
Equitable OWns-had long been known
to men about town. 1t couldn't we'll be
concealed. Odell got his check through
the advice of Hartman on the same
day that the knowledge became pub
lie that he had abandoned Frank
Blacks campaign for senator and
turned to Depew. That was December
30, last year, just before the legisla-
ture met. Hartman was a good deal
more interested in the election of De-
pew than he was in OdelPs getting $75..
600. But he was able to scare young
Hyde, who was as he says young and
inexperienced" with the threat that
Odell would surely push the bill to re-
woke the charter of the trust com,
pany.
A more experienced man might have
reflected that Odell could hardly carry
through a bill to revoke the charter of
trust company with $70,000,000 of
deposits whose stock was worth $1,000
a share, just to compel payment to
himself. But it was not Hyde's own
money he was paying out. No one
seems to have considered that point
very much. It was Ito save trouble
all round"

Ing the men with whom his father had
associated in managing the Equitable.
Hyde willingly enough accepted the
rather ornamental role they assigned
him He took part in syndicates;lsit
was the routine Of Wall street. He
extensively advertised the society by
the Cambon dinner and in otner ways
not to the taste Of quieter men, and
certainly not likely in one who had
any consciousness of dishonest intent.
The thief doesn't usually advertise.
But Mr.. Hyde has learned a lot in
the past few months. When he ap-

other day he made an excellent i'm

OF the sparpest lawyers in New York,
Sam Untermeyer, the same who ap.

encouraged in him.
Hyde is not so rich as he was. He
paid back over 100000 of the "yel-

country estate that was his fathers
pride. He has sold his horses at auc

It was splendid plot, but it failed,
because, on the day Rice died Patrick,
the lawyer, forged check of Rice to

that citizen Of that place had been
branded with the letter ID" because
he deserted from tLe army during the
civil war. Corporal Tanner says that
this story ought itself to be branded
with the big letter "F'' as fake of
the first water.
mo officer he says, would have
dared to do such a thing as to brand
one of his soldiers with a red-hot iron
Furthermore such punishment was not
necessary, as the act of desertion in
war time called for the most severe Of
all Observation-Disclosures.
Corporal Tanners denouncing of the
branding story as fake has called at
tention to other milder punishments
that obtained in the sixties, but which
are no longer allowed in either the reg
ular or volunteer armies. Among these
punishments was the wearing of
large placard inscribed "Thief,' which
was imposed on those who committed
larceny.
Another form Of punishment was the
drumming out of camp. This was gen.
orally administered to camp followers
not regularly attached to the army and
consisted in the drummers and fifers
playing THE Rogues' March while
the offenders were escorted beyond the
camp limits. Other classes of offend
ers were "bucked and gagged" by ty-
ing their arms and legs and by placing
a bayonet crosswise in their mouths
and firmly tied back Of their heads.
The most dreaded of all the. minor
forms of correction was running the
gauntlet" It consisted of making the
victim run between two long lines OF
soldiers each of whom was armed with
a paddle or thick switch and took q
hearty whack at the offender as ne
rushed along. These punishments are
only "reminiscences now, whose recita1s
serve to enliven the veterans camp

Information from Manila says that
the Philippine commission found it
necessary to pass a law forbidding the
expectation of the silver peso from
the island. This was done with the
consent and approval Of the local
banks and merchants. The reason was
the increased value of silver. II is
stated that the peso, which is the
standard Of value, being a silver coin
equivalent to so cents, is now worth
about 60 cents as bullion. The result
Is that the pesos are being melted, 50
that they may be exported and sold as
silver bullion at a profit.

business partner in ballot-box stufing
frauds, but the row in the republican
party over Boss Odell has kept poll
ticians in a state of nervous collapse.
At first sight things look worse than
they are. The republican chairman
and state boss has been caught with
the goods on One republican, Sen
ator Depew, is irretrievably ruined and
must go through his old age in shame
and sorrow. To balance matters,
democratic governor, Hill, has been
shown up thanking an insurance presi-
dent for Retainer" for no discovera~
BILE service and saying facetiously that
the money would come in handy. And
though most men know that Odell was
no angel, most men were surprised
that Hill was caught in such trap.
Now come Easy Boss Platt, gaily
dancing forth from his political grave
to assume again the leadership of his
party in the state. There are points
in Platt's favor. Five years ago he
was like walking ghost, while Depew
was strong and ruddy. To-day Plat
is perhaps as strong as DepeW, shaken
by his recent experiences. Above all,
Plat is not rich man. He is presi-
dent of an express company and rep
resents the express interests in con-
gress; and that is bad enough. He
has squeezed the corporations for pc"
litical contributions, frying the fat, as
it is facetiously termed, and that is
pretty bad, as things now look. But
the money has never stuck to Platt's
fingers. Rather, he has spent his own
money upon politics. He would have
been a richer man if he had kept out
Of the game. The fact is, he cares
nothing for money. A modest income
suited to his needs is all he asks. He
cares for nothing but politics and
power.
