Fiance of the Victim.
MR.. MoRToN's RETIREMENT.
He Will Probably Resign by Septem-
Der l.

While the report that Secretary Morton
will leave the cabinet about July 1 is in
correct 1t is stated upon high authority
that he desires to get back into the busi-
ness world some time next fall If he can
get the consent of the President to do so.
and il is expected he will retire about Sep
tember 1. He became Secretary of the
Navy with the understanding that he would
not serve longer than March L. but the
President succeeded in persuading him to
stay on. He does not like Official life and
has chafed at being in Office. Mr. Morton
has severed his connection with tie Santa
Fe road. OF which he was a vice president
when he entered the cabinet, but 1t is said
that he has many offers from large rail-
roads and business houses to accept posi-
tions with chem. The only thing that pre-
vents his having accepted some of the Of
fers is the fact that he Is closely associ-
ated with President Roosevelt and will re-
main as an adviser of the latter as long as
he thinks 1t consistent with his interests.

situation has reached a point whore prac-
ucaly all OF the team owners IN the city

major part of the hauling tor the commits

which passes the city's supply OF fresh

The arguments in tie meeting Of the
teamsteTs joint council when the question
of accedng to or denying the proposition
OF the Team Owners Association was Ep
for settlement. were at times heated hut
only on the question OF whether or not IL
was advisable to call a general strike of all
the 81, 600 teamSterS in the city, or allow
the employers to force such a condition by
insisting upon deliveries to boyc"ued
houses. The latter plan was finally decided
upon, and messenger was at once sent TO
inform the members of the Team Owners
Association that If they made deliveries to
houses employing HOn-uniou teamsters their
men would be called out ~ once.

New York, Nov 15.-James H. Hyde,

able Life Assurance society were to
buy off inconvenient suits, to buy up

Emperor Nicholas Will Not Return to
st. Petersburg.
st. Petersburg, Nov. 15.-Emperor
Nicholas and the Russian court will
not come to st. Petersburg this win
ter. A short time ago 1t was an
nounced that the emperor was about
to return to the winter palace, In an
annex Of which Count Witte has In
stalled himself. but his majesty has
now decided to go from PeterhOf back
to Tsarskoe-Sele, where he has been
living for almost two years, with the
exception Of the last few months spent
at Peterhof. Except on the occasion
of the ceremony of the blessing the

peror narrowly escaped death owing
to q mysterious charge Of grape being
fired In the direction of the imperial
party by saluting battery, the en-
peror has not stepped inside the win
ter palace for over eighteen months.
His decision not to come to the capital
is regarded as unfortunate. not only
for its moral effect, but because It
keeps him surrounded by court infiu-
sences and out Of immediate touch with

made up the balance, $212,00O. He
said he thought he was generous in
this, as he had not received any bene-
fit from the loan. The witness was ex-
amined at length by Counsel Hughes,
but little of sensational nature was
brought out.

Mr.. Hyde testified that he was TWEEN
ty-nine years old and became second
vice president of the Equitable a
month after graduating from Harvard
He had always been brought up to be-
lieve his life work was to be the legiti-
mate successor Of his father, the
founder OF the Equitable. He had trav-
eled and studied with that object in
view. He did not receive salary
upon his first connection with the COM
pany. He was offered salary but
declined. The president and various
members of the executive committee
then suggested that as he had quail
fed himself by two years work he
should have salary and President
Alexander In 1900 fixed 1t at $50, 900.
In 1902 General Louis Fitzgerald re-
signed as chairman Of the finance COM
mittee and Mr.. Hyde was appointed
to the craftsmanship. For the added
responsibilities falling on Mr.. Hyde his
salary was advanced to $4,000. His
duties constantly increased In the var
l0us departments and In 1903 his salary
was made 500, 900. at which It remain
ed until his resignation last spring.
The witness never spoke to any Of the
officers or members Of the executive
committee or In any way suggested an
increase in his salary.
The Equitable's participation in
Isyndicate deals was gone into at great
length and occupied considerable time
bothma the morning and afternoon
sessions OF the inquiry. Mr.. Hyde adj
mitted making profits on certain deals,
but declared he would have stood the
ioss, had the transactions SO turned

an agreement exists whereby Germany
and Austria would assist Russia II 1t
became necessary to suppress move
ment for Polish autonomy. The for
eign Office says nothing Of the kind has
occurred and that nothing of that ma
ture will occur. Emperor William has
had no communication on the subject

far as Germany is concerned, does not
exist outide of Germany. II, however,
the Russian Poles rise up and the
movement for Polish autonomy
spreads to the Polish provinces OF
Prussia the latter will firmly suppress
it in the Prussian Polish provinces.
But Russia must manage her own diff

Germany not to interfere in the inter-

boycott for the reason that 1t exists.

dependency which can scarcely be call
