'CAULLY GIVEN
Up BY BONDSMEN
Alleged Fixer Of Jury in
MarshaFs Hands.

Benjamin F. McCaully, recently de-
clared guilty Of contempt of court by
Justice Wright for an alleged attempt to
corrupt Benjamin F. Shaw, member OF
the jury which tried Samuel Gassen-
heimer, and who was sentenced to i'm
prisonment in the District jail for six
months, was today surrendered to the
cJurt by mis- bondsmen.
When Mr.. McCaully was sentenced he
gave bond for appeal to the Court Of
Appeals of the District for his appear
ance to abide the result of his appeal.
The matter was called to the attention
OF Justice Wright today In Criminal
Court No by Messrs. Birney & Wood
ward, counsel for McCaully. When the
surrender was made the court ordered
that Mr. McCaully be turned over to the
marshal and be committed to jail.
Soon after Mr.. McCaully was commit
ted to the custody Of the Marshal. his
counsel filed a petition for a writ Of
habeas corpus asking for the release Of
Mr.. McCaully on the following grounds:
First, because he is Illegally held in
custody on a commitment which was
issued without warrant OF law. Second,
that the evidence offered against the
petitioner failed to establish the charge
made against him, and again tnat the
testimony established affirmatively that
the offense, if committed at all, was
committed out of the jurisdiction Of the
cClIt and not near enough TO anect the
aGEinistrat ton of justice.
The petition for habeas corpus was
presented TO Chief Justice Clabaugh.
who ordered the writ to issue, and made
ii returnable this afternoon.

Best Summer Feature.

1t is the opinion Of members Of the
committee that Camp Good Will was
the best of all the summer features of
last year They firmly believe that they
have raised the standard Of health in
the city by the establishment of this
camp. and more than that-haye saw
ed the lives Of many an invalid mother
and child. They state that EVERYONE

to the camp was enthusiastic about it.
and came away with the impression
that is was most beneflcent and
sensible undertaking.

There Is growing belief in the Street
ssssss mere money Is to be made on the
so2aS side OF the industriaIs than in the
general railway list it being argued that
sAii speculation in the railway depart-
inent has been n little overdone, and
that the industrial quarter of the mar
AeS which has not participated in the
advance TO any great extent with the
exception of a few issues which have
been connected with merger talk, offer
better opportunities for improvement. In
this connection. bull points are out on
the Steel stocks. Smelling, and Rubber
Goods.
Every steel rail manufacturer in the
United States IS enjoying a record-break-
ing business. and premiums are being
ofrered Tor basic iron. The United States
Steel Corporation is in the market for
iron for delivery during the third quar-
ter.
With the iron and steel trade in its
present strong position, and with every
indication that prosperity will continue
in this line of the country's Industries
for many, months to come, there is no
reason why the iron and steel shares
should not move to a higher level
There is no good reason why the rail-
way equipment shares should not sell
at better figures. while the same thing
kind of securities ought to appeal to
operators in the stock market es-
pecihlly. as prices for the various
issues have not enjoyed Improvement
proportionate to their increase in in
trinstc worth in the last six months,
while speculation in them has been on
a much smaller and quieter scale than
in the railroad stocks. In the last
weeks marEet there were indications
that the industrials were being alb
sorbed by substantial interests, and il
would not surprise careful observers
to see an important movement through
ha 1.u,-1-x
the current week.
Among the railway shares higher
prices are expected for ST Paul JTnjon
Pacific, New York Central. Canadian
Pacific, the Gould shares, and. in fact,
for nearly every issue on the list. OF
the Gould stocks, st. Louis Southwest

cellent class of buyers, many of the
purchases being for the account of peo-
pie who are In a position to be well in

iative movements. The St Louis South
ahead as a large ney-maker, owing
to the improvement in, the co1npany's 8
facilities and the rapid expansion OF the
industries in the section of the country
of the roads in the South and South
west are attractive propositions for in
restment and specula tive consideration.
In Baltimore and Ohio there appears
to be good accumulation, buying evil
IDENTIFY being based OIL the improving g
earnings of the company and on the
theory that the company's dividend
may be increased. Regarding the latter
it may be just as well not to place too
much confidence in Street reports, as
there is good reason for the idea that
the company's directors will not decide
to make a change in the dividend at the
next dividend period. This company is
still spending a large amount of money
on betterpents and improvements, a
policy that is adding intrinsic value to
the company's securities and which

turns to the stockholders.
