application of 3. Lawrence Duke. son
OF BrOdie l. Duke of Durham. y. c..
for the appointment of a commission to
inquire into tho mental condition Of his
father. was heard today by Justice Lew
eEtritt in the supreme court.
IN support of the application. Delaney
NicolI presented aIfidavits of two ply
sicians who examined Duke while he
was confined in Bellevue hospital and 4
Il Long Island sdnitarium. Mr.. Nicoll de-
C!ared that Duke was insane and that
he was an habitual drunkard.
The motion was opposed by Lawyer
Louis 5. PHILIPPE. who represents MIR
Duke. and who maintained that his con-
d.tion is perfectly sane and That the al
legations in his sons petition are untrue.
Mr. Phillips further contended that It was
rot shown that Mr.. Duke had any prop
crty. either real or personal. situated IN
this courts jurisdiction, and the court
for this reason haO no right TO entertain
Henry w. Younger. counsel for Mrs
Alice l. Webb Duke. whom Duke mar
ned last December. also appeared to Op-
pose the motion.
During his argument in opposition to
appoint a commission Lawyer Phillips
presented an aft4Lavit from Duke which
began:
Il do not think I am a drinking man.
Mr.. Nicol objected to the presented
affidavit claiming that an affidavit from
the alleged incompetent could not be en-
tcrtained on such a motion Justice
Lcventritt adjourned the hearing until
he could decide the admiSsibility of the
affidavit.

The report of Maxim Gorkys release
apparently either is Incorrect, or, If
true, he was released on the promise to
leave st. Petersburg without the slight
est delay He had not returned home
up to late hour last night. The friend
with whom he lives and who was per-
mitted to visit him yesterday afternoon
for the first time since his arrest, told
the Associated Press that he found the
author still in solitary confinement in
the st. Peter and st. Paul fortress.
The novelist, whose real name is not
Maxim Gorky, which is a pseudonym
meaning Maxim the Bitter" but Alex
is Pyeshkoff, did not expect release for
some time, and did not know whether
he would be brought before the court
for trial or deported by administrative
order. He philosophically proposed to
devote his period of imprisonment to
learning the English language and
remedying other deficiencies in his
peasants education He begged his
friends to procure text books of Eng
liSh and German, national sciences,
etc. At present he speaks only Rus
sian.

MARKED THE GREENBACKS
Rumor That Proof Against the Cali

at Hand.

Sacramento. Cal, Feb. at is the con-
census of opinion among the members of
the state senate that the biggest sensa-
ton in connection with the bribery scan
dalS remains to be introduced before the
special committee that is now conducting
the investigation of the accusations
against Senators Emmons, Bunkers,
Wright and French. This opinion seems
to be partially borne out through the cir
culatiOn of a well-defined rumOr to the
effect that detectives employed by the
prosecutors of the suspected statesmen
have succeeded i'm locating some of the
marked bills that are said to have been
rendered about the city.
1t is conceded that there will be weak
point in the allegations against the sem
atOrs unless IL can be positively proven
that they passed some of the paper money
that is said to have been given to them
by Joseph $. Jordan.
All four of the accused senators were
absent from the upper house chamber
this morning. and 1t was said they were in
cOnsulta ton with their lawyers.
The bribery inveStiga ton has been con-
tinued until next Monday night in order
to give the defense time to assemble wit

HAND OF PUSSY JIMMY is SEEN
IN PENDING STATE LAND BOARD BILL

Sentiment expressed by members of the
house and senate gives ground for the
belief that hard fight will be made on
the state land board bill before il will be
permitted to pass in it's present form
Opposition is based largely on the feeling
that the new bill was drafted for the spe-
ciel benefit Of James H. Anderson of
Salt Lake.
Anderson is the man slated in the
minds OF the knowing ones for the posi-
ton of secretary of the land board to
succeed Byron GrOo- The bill now in the
house provides for an increase in the
salary OF the secretary from 81, SOC to 50 4gO
year. In addition to this the secretary
IS made the custodian of all the securi-
ties of IN board, amounting to more
than 81. 100000 at this time In addition
to all this the governor is eliminated from
the board altogether and the number of
commissioners is to be reduced 10 three

on its face the proposed new law would
result IN a financial saving to the state.
The salary of s.. 400 to be paid the Secre-
tary. and the 5000 to be paid the three
commissioners would make an annual
salary expense Of s., 400 in addition TO the
amount paid the regular office force
which it may be assumed will not be
changed. Under the present law the sec
rotary receives 81. 800. and the four com
misSiOnerS receive 81. 200 each, making the
annual expense $500. This shows d saw
ing of 81 200 a wear

a question in which many aspiring states

TALK OVER ONE STRETCH OF WIRE

President George Y. Wallace of the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone company,
returned yesterday from Boston, where
ne spent the greater part of the past three
weeks in consultation with the officials
of the American Telephone & Telegraph
company, the parent organization of the
local company. When asked if it was
true that a combination of all the Bell
telephone companies of the country was
contemplated, as stated in eastern papers,
he said:
Il saw those statements back east, and
in reply win say that at present fifty
one per cent of all the Bell companies in
the United States are united and have
been for several years.Eso thata1 do not
see why there should be any discussion
OF the matter at this time"
Perhaps it was intended to mean that
the main organization was prepa ring to
take in all the small Bell companies in
the various states" was suggested.

You may say this, though, that at the
