Hnrmon Confirms Report

Cincinnati, June 14.--Judge Judson Harmon who was engaged with E. N. Judson of St. Louis by Attorney Gen eral Moody to investigate charges that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad was granting rebates to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, today gave out the following statement In which he confirms the report that he had terminated his commission with the government:
 AS the despatch was given to the press which asked me in connection with MT. Judson to undertake the duty of Investigating and reporting on the alleged rates given by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, l think there should now be no mystery about what has become of the matter.
 MT. Judson and myself made the in- vestigation and recommended that certain proceeding be taken. The At torney General disapproved our recom- mendations as he had a perfect right to do. The nature and circumstances of our appointment seemed to us to impose A degree of important responsibility and we thought our duty required us to adhere to our views. We have so notified the Attorney General and re- tired from further connection with the matter"

 washington, June 14.--Secretary Taft heard two witnesses in the Bowen Loomis controversy today. The first was A. L. Barber who said that he had been connected with the group of com pains known as the Asphalt Trust. to June 3d, 1901 and knew that no money had been paid to Mir. .Loomis as minister 10 Venezuela during that period. Fe- plying to a question from Mir. Bowen he said that he had heard later that money had been paid to Mir. Loomis
 Pastor Y. Mora testified as to the credit of s5,0O0 which Bean had re- ceived from Mir. Loomis. Secretary Taft asked Mora if Mir. Bowen had suggested to him that he leave the New York and Bermudez Company and join the Warmer company for the purpose of getting a check and letter of MT. Ioomis Mora answered in the af- fIrmative. but said that he did not com nIy with the request, as he thought II was wrong. MT. Bowen then explain ed that he had made an effort to pro- cure this check and letter because ne wanted such inculpatory papers for the purpose of forwarding them to Sec retary Hay.

RANGE FINDERS NOW
TOGO,s VICTORY TEACHES UNCLE
 SAM SOMETHING.
Small Guns Mill be Removed From Fighting Tops of Alabama and Other ships and More Use.
 full Appliances Installed.

New York, June 14.-Orders were re- ceived at the New York navy yard to- day from the Navy Department at Washington to remove the guns from the fighting tops of the battleship Ala bama. Orders have been issued also that the guns are not to be replaced Tn the fighting tops of the battieship In diana which is being repaired. It is renorted that orders are to be issued regarding other bataeships.
 The news of the victory of Admiral Togo in the battle of the Sea of Ja- nan is said to have influenced the de- cision to put range finders in place or the one -pounders which have occupied the tops. The fate of the battle was decided by the superiority of the work of the Japanese gunners while the ships were at long range. The Depart- ment was informed that the aim of the Japanese gunners was due to the eff1- ciency of the men with the range find CTS whom the Japanese had placed In the fighting tops and were thus able to pick up" the Russian ships at far greater distance than the Russians could locate the Japanese.

For Two Reasons.

Washington, June 14.-For some time past the Navy Department has had un- der consideration the expedioncy Of in- stalling range finders in the fighting tons of the war vessels in place of the one pounder guns which have occupied places there. l., All.
 There is a two-fold purpose in this change. It will give the officers In charge of the range finders a more commemorative view of the horizon and tha possibility of locating an enemy than is now afforded and also will en- able them to control the batteries with hetter results than at present.
 Tbese range finders are first to be irstaIIed in the fighting tops of the Alabama and Indiana nov a at tSs tse oSSsy Msw ..enIoIs that are soon expected to ar rive here, The change Is in the nature of an experiment. and its application to all the vessels equipped with hgnt- inc tons will depend upon the results achieved in those vessel in which the change Is about to be made.
