CashieR of United States Assay Of
noe mt Seattle Short About
$4,000 in Accounts.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. A.-George
Edward Adams, for seven years cash.
Ter Of the United States assay office
in this city, Is under arrest, accused
by secret service officials of the theft
Of $35, 900 In gold dust, to which he
had access in his official capacity. OF
this sum $4,000 was taken from Ad-
ans person by Secret Service Agent
Cornell, who has been at work on the
case for several weeks. Mr.. Cornell
claims that Adams has made prac-
tically complete confession and that
he has distracted more than 100000
from miners pokes since June last,
and substituted sand to maintain the
weight. Adams was taken before
United States commissioner Kiefer
Thursday afternoon and held in $780,
600 bonds to appear for preliminary
examination on Friday next Adams
made no statement other than to de-
muir as to the amddnt alleged to have
been taken. Secret Service Agent
Cornell, on the witness stand, tssti-
fed that from the result of his inves-
tigation and examination of Adams
accounts he had reason to believe
that the shortage would exceed $685.

PLANNED BY AMERICANS.
Executive Committee of Inter-Par-
liamentary Conference Accepts
Congressman BarthOldt's Ideas.

Paris, Nov. 27.-Hain Davis secre-
tary of the American delegation to the
inter parliamentary congress recently
held at Brussels, is here attending a
meeting of the executive committee OF
the congress which is considering the
proposition of Congressman Richard
Bartholdt of Missouri for an interna-
tional parliament.
The report of the committee recon-
mends that "the Hague tribunal be
transformed into a permanent interna-
tional body, sitting periodically instead
OF systematically, the chief purpose be-
ing the development Of definite code
of international law. The tribunal 1t
is pointed out will thus serve as an
international senate and the committee
recommends that the inter-parliamen-
tary union be reorganized In the form
of a popular branch or international
house of representatives, acting in con-
junction with this international senate
at The Hague. Mr.. Davis says that
this plan is practically drawn from Mr..
Bartholdt's proposition for an interna-
tional parliament. The action Of the
committee, he says, is gratifying as
1t will have the indirect effect of ac-
complaining all that the American del
egation at Brussels proposed

TO SUPPORT GOVERNMENT.
ZemstvO Congress Passes ResOIu-
lions Declaring Liberties Accord
ed VIII TrnnOui1lse Country.

Moscow, Nov. 23.-At the end Of four
days debate the executive committee
of the zemstvo congress brought in the
following resolution In favor Of sup
porting the government, the reading OF
which was greeted with tremendous
applause:
Considering that the imperial mani
festo satisfies all the demands voiced
since the zemstvo congress Of p year
ago and that the liberties accorded BY
the mnifesto are indispensable to the
tranQuilizatioh of the country, the con-
gress declares itself In complete solidar-
ity with this constitutional basis. The
responsibility for the realization Of the
programme rests upon the cabinet. The
congress lie convinced that the cabinet
can count on the support Of the great
majority of the Eemstvos and munich
palities 30 long as It follows the path
for the accomplishment Of the liberties
promised by the manifesto but every
deviation will encounter decisive oppo-
sltion.

KILLED BY BLOWS.
Surgeon Stone Testified That An-
naDOIis student Died from Pun-
Ishment Received in Fight.

Annapolis, Nov. A.-The second
day Of the couft-martial proceedings
in the case Of Midshipman Minor Meri-
wether, Jr., was not nearly so eventful
as the first day nor was SO much
ground covered.
The principal witness called was
Surgeon e. P. Stone, Of the Naval
academy star. He gave detailed ac-
count of Branch's symptoms, his treat
ment and the changes in his condition
leading up to his death. The death,
he said, was primarily due to oedema
Of the vessels Of the brain, though this
was not disclosed by the operation and
no autopsy was performed as Branch's
parents would not consent.
The cross examination Of DR.. Stone
by Lieut.. Commander Robson, coun-
sci for the defense, was very searching
and several members Of the court al
so asked question on different phases
of DR.. Stones testimony. The defense
evidently wished to raise a doubt as
to the positlveness OF the PROOF that
Branch's death was necessarily caused
by the blows received from Meriwether
and asked many questions Of the
medical officer as to the possibility Of
some unhealthful condition Of Branch's
bringing about the death. He was
also examined as to the effect Of the
absence Of an autopsy and his abil-
ity under the circumstances to testify
positively as to the cause of death.
From the symptoms and what was
disclosed during the operation DR.,
Stone was confident that the condition
had been brought about by external
injuries to the head, such as might
have been caused by blows Of the fist.
These blows could have been inflicted
on either side Of the head.

MORE INSURANCE. LEAKS.
OF Money Belonging to New York
Life, Hamilton Was Paid $5O,31O
and Perkins 100000.

New York, Nov. 25.-Stratling de-
velopments were brought out at Fri
days session Of the Armstrong com
mittee on insurance investigation In
the course of a minute inquiry by Mr..
Hughes, counsel to the committee, into
the syndicate transactions participated
in by the New York Life Insurance
company. The most important wit
ness of the day was Milton M. Madison,
a bookkeeper OF the New York Life In
surance company, during whose exam
ination 1t was brought out that in the
case of the United States Steel corpor-
alton syndicate, the managers Of which
were ]. P. Morgan 6 Co., there ap-
peared In one instance a profit due to
the New York Life of $S7,187, from
which was deducted, no reason be-
ing given, the sum Of 1910 paid to
Andrew Hamilton, who has been des-
cribed In the course Of the investiga-
ton as the insurance legislative gen.
eralissimo."
Pressed by Mr.. Hughes to tell wheth-
er he knew Of any other instance Of
money due to the New York Life being
paid to third party, as in the Hamil-
ton case, Mr.. Madison recalled the
payment in 1904 Of $4,000 to George
W. Perkins, representing the profit on
a loan Of s9SO,0OO to the Boston firm
Of Kidder, Peabody & Co.
The profit, witness said, came in the
form Of a check on the First National
bank which he cashed, giving the
money to Mr.. Perkins.
What the latter did with It the wit
ness did not know. No entry Of the
transaction was made on the books Of
the New York Life.
