An admission made by Edmond d.

Hughes, was that at various times
this company had transferred blocks
Of securities aggregating several mil
lions Of dollars to the New York Trust
company In order to conceal the owner
ship of these stocks in its annual sched-
ule of assets. This transaction took
the form of loan on the books, being
secured by notes drawn by employees
Of the insurance company, with the
stock as collateral One of the en-
ployees who thus nominally borrowed
millions of dollars from the company
was colored messenger who received
salary of 5000 year. The imme-
diate cause of these transactions was
to comply with the condition imposed
by the Prussian government for doing

The %Lanston Monotype Machine COM
pany, whose contract to furnish type
machines for the government printing
Office has just been sustained by the
president, with a rebuke for its rival,
the Mergenthaler Linotype company,
has brought action for libel against the
Mergenthaler company and its presi-
dent, Philip T. Dodge, on account Of
a letter written by Dodge to President
Roosevelt in June last. 1t Is charged
that this letter contained various false
statements about the Lanston concern,
chief of which was that the contract
with the government was made cor
ruptly, clandestinely and in violation
of the law" and that several Of the
public printers assistants had at the
time stock interest in the Lanston
company contrary to law. The suit
Is brought for S25O,OOO, half from the
company and half from Dodge.
Unlicensed Auto Enjoined.
That the Association Of Licensed Au-

cent test case brought against W. ].
Moore, the New York owner of an i'm
ported Martini car, for which he had
failed to obtain license. The Selden
patent claims to control the principles
Of internal combustion by which all
gasoline cars are propelled. The case
Is now decided in favor of the associa-
ton, which has obtained from the cir
cult court an Injunction prohibiting Mr..
Moore from using this or any other I'M
licensed car. Similar proceedings are
now In progress against other owners
Of unlicensed cars. Many unlicensed
automobiles are in use in this country.

Texans Drive Out Negroes.

A number of recent crimes against
white women by negroes In the cotton
growing counties of Texas Is given as
the reason for an organized movement
among the poor whites to drive out the
entire negro population. This decree is
being carried out ruthlessly by band
Of White Caps Notwithstanding the ap-
peals Of cotton planters for exception
to be made in favor Of good negro la
borers. Many Of the planters are suf-
fering great loss for want Of cotton
pickers, and they are armiJ Z their la
borers for defense against tha White
Caps. An effort is being made to i'm
port Mexican labor.
Chieaao's Blaekmalling Syndicate.
The attempt of woman calling her
self Minnie Lee Ivers Lawrence to get
money from Governor Herrick of Ohio
with the tale Of an unacknoWledged
child has led to her exposure as the
head Of Chicago syndicate Of profess
sional blackmailers. 1t appears that
during her various operations this wo-
man had become prominent in Chicago
society as person, Of responsibility
and wealth and that one Of her daugh-
tiers had married a wealthy clubman
named William T. Foster. Mrs Law
renee appears to have obtained large
credit for years by convincing people
that she was a member of al aristo-
cratic English family Of wealth.

Civil War In Caucasus.
The racial conflict between the Tar

re-enforcements from the cars troops.
The Industries at Baku have been
obliged to use coal instead Of oil, but
this Is difficult owing to the damage to

and there was talk of the cabinet re-
signing, but the mikado ordered the
ministers to retain their posts. The

on Christian churches, which they say
were the result Of local conditions and
do not indicate serious anti-C Christian
feeling. The leader of the opposition is
Count Okuma, former premier, who
heads the progressive party.
