asked for was granted tho grade cross
ings would give the rival corporation
privileges which would always be
menace to the city, the Great North

STRAIN TAKING or EVIDENCE
IN MURDER CASE.
PROCEEDING ALLEGED TO Be IlLEeAL
PROSECUTION is USING GRAND
JURY sUBPoENAEs TO Sc
2. 5-- CURE WITNESSES.

New York, July 1S-John D. Glea-
son, one of Thaw's counsel, appeared
before Justice Blanchard in Part of
tho supreme court and secured a writ
ef prohibition restraining the district
attorney and the grand jury from TAX
ing any evidence as to the killing of
Stanford White. The writ, which is
temporary, also restrains the district
attorney and the grand jury from is
suing any subpoenaes In connection
with the matter of the killing of White.
Justice Blanchard also issued an
order directing the district attorney
aud the grand jury to show cause why
they should not be absolutely re-
strained from any further proceedings
in the matter of the killing Of White
and against Harry K: Thaw.
Allegations on which the restraining
writ was issued allege that after Thaw
had been indicted by the grand jury
1t is illegal for the district attorney to
issue grand jury subpoenaes and to
obtain further evidence for the prose-
cution through witnesses who appear
at the district attorneys Office in an
swer to the subpoenaes. H.
.Thaw Constantly Watched.
It is reported that Thaw has been
watched constantly since his arrest
by trusted prisoner who has been
detailed as an extra watchman on the
tier where Thaw's cell is located One
purpose of the surveillance is said to
be to catch as much as possible of
what is said at bis talks with his vis-
itors. It is not known who set the
watch upon him, as the prison warden
refused to discuss the subject.
One report concerning the watch set
upon Thaw was to the effect that the
supposed "trusty" who is said to be
watching the prisoner is an expert
alienist, who has been admitted to the
prison by direction of District Attor-
ney Jerome. This report also de-
clares that the purpose of the espion-
age is to ascertain whether or not
Thaw Is sane.

Tom Lawson charges that the trustees
of the New York Life have been issuing
policies without receiving any money
therefor and for the purpose of obtaining
proxies to be voted at the April meeting.
and in the April number of Everybody's
Magazine he presents the proof of this
charge by showing copy OF such poll
cies issued for the purpose charged. The
policies were issued without any money
consideration whatever, and were solely
for the purpose of obtaining proxies to
enable this gang of insurance grafters to
vote themselves back into Office in order
that they might retain control of the
affairs and prevent the further exposure
of the rotten methods by which they
have diverted millions of the policy-hold
ers' money into their own pockets for
private use.
When Lawson first turned public atten-
ton to insurance methods by his articles,
he was not taken seriously, perhaps, and
those who had long been fattening off of
misapplied insurance money felt so
strongly intrenched as to consider the
charges made entirely beneath their
notice.
But when the legislative investigation
commenced quite serious phase was
put upon the matter and they endeavored
to cover their guilty tracks by placing the

themselves upon getting out of an ugly
mess so easily, when the absent one sud-

gentlemen. The proof of the lobbyists

There has been a great deal said re-
Gently about the free seed graft" be-
cause of the government spending some
thing less than quarter of a million in
the sending of seeds to farmers and
others, but what about the subsidies to
railroads for carrying mail? The graft
in this instance amounts to millions, and
yet there is not nearly the howl about it
there has been lately over the free seed
distribution graft. The farmers support
the government and ask nothing in turn,
while the railroads rob it and demand
everything in sight-and as Congress is
packed with their paid attorneys, they
generally get it. The railroads charge
such high rentals for cars and stuff the
mails to such an extent at weighing
times that they get rake offs in graft
amounting to 20 per cent of the entire
sum paid these transportation companies
for handling the mails. At any rate this
is what Grosvenor, Ohio's veteran repub
lican Congressman alleges. he stating that
$4,000, 600 of the $43. 5000, 900 paid the
railroads by Uncle Sam for carrying the
mails is nothing but graft, for which there
is not the slightest service rendered in
return.
