Boston. Jan 1.-The board oi police has ordered thorough investigation of the affairs of the Prevalent Securi- ties and Banking Co, which was closed by the supreme court of the state last week. Several depositors of the com pany have submitted their case to the police and have charged that the sol vency of the institution was misrepre- scented to them when they made their deposits. In connection with general inyestigations which are now being made by the city and state authorities into the methods of the company, the board of police will give hearing next Tuesday on charges which have been preferred against Police Captain Ed ward F. Gaskin and Lieutenant Fred erick J. Smith. These officials are charged with neglect of duty in fall ing to report to their superior the visit to the Proyident bank on the night Of January of Lorenzo Burlen, the sec retary and treasurer of the institution. It is alleged that Burlen, accompanied by the officers. went to the bank and removed several boxes. which he took to his home, it is claimed, by perinis- sion of the police. Lieutenant Smith will be required to show why he did not insist on keeping the boxes in the station house until it could be deter mined whether they contained a part of the assets of the institution. Bur len left Boston yesterday. after hay, ing declined by advice of counsel re- quest of District Attorney Moran tc call at the district attorneys office. He was in Montreal last night.

Alleys Tribute TO Woman.

There was an interesting civil
case in Judge McDonald's court
yesterday afternoon. II was the
case of Mrs. w. W. Sampson
against A. L. Lutcavich, forcible
detainer.
Lutcavich had an expired lease
on the corner store room in the
Sampson Hotel, in which he was
running q saloon. He declined to
quit when his lease was up, hence
the SUIT. Mrs. Sampson wanted
possession.
Frank Alley was for the defense,
and Judge Albert Sames represent
ed the lady. The judge made an
appeal in his speech for the rights
of a selEreliant, hard working wo.
man, his client, which also touched
the chivalric side of Mr.. Alleys
nature, and he went the judge one
better, delivering a tribute to the
ladies in general that brought tears
to the eyes of the court and the
most hardened bachelors present
were convinced.
The lady got her store room re-
stored to her, but whether as a re-
suit of the argument of Judge
James or Frank Alley is not
known International american.

The following appeared in last
Sundays New York World:
AT the conference in the Office OF
"a downtown lawyer yesterday il
was agreed that the trustees of the
New York Life company who were
mem bers OF the finance committee
during the presidential campaigns
of 1896, 1900 and 1904, and were
cognizant of the political contribu.

should reimburse the company to
the extent of sl4S,000. This is
the total of the political contribu.
tons made by the company. Each
trustee will go into his own private
funds to make payment,
In all there are fifteen trustees
involved, and under the agreement
each man will have to contribute a
trihe less than $4,000.

bursements.
Abandonment Of this plan is in-
volved in the decision reached at

STATEHOOD LEGISLATION

The unholy attempt to marry New
Mexico and Arizona into one state

II is painful to read the list OF
those who voted for the unjust

many of the best names on the roll.

wiser.
The splendid new state south of
Kansas (Which we hope will be
called Oklahoma) is a most proper
creation. Its entrance to the

not to the harm of any important
interest. The new state is sure TO

A WISE SUGGESTION

Here's some hot shot from the
virile and ever faithful pen of that
prince of editors, milford Windsor,
in the Yuma Sm; which is respect
fully referred 10 the Copper Qneen
subsidized organs Of W, II. Kelly
and company:
"A WISE suggestion comes from
the GRAHAM GUARDIAN, John j,
Birdno's genuinely democratic
newspaper
Mr.. Birdno moves that the Hon.
E. E. Ellinwood, who has recently
entered the employ of the Copper
Queen Mining Company, be sent
his resignation as chairman of the
Territorial Democrat Central Com
mittee.
1t would be the merest good
taste for Mr.. Ellinwood TO heed
the suggestion and retire grace
fully. If his ideas do not run in
that dircction.it would be nothing
more than measure Of protection
for the democratic party to speak
to him about il in tones so plain
that he will not deem il advisable
to hang on.
Mr.. ElIinwood has never been
considered, by the rank and file Of
the democracy, n fit leader, and
when be was elevated to the posi-
tion of chairman the act was not
greeted with popular acclaim.
His rtcmd since that time has
been marked by two very glaring
illustrations of his subservlcncy to
the corporation interests, OF the
territory, thereby utterly disquali-
flying him for leading position in
the democratic party.
When the territorial tosrd of
equalization, urged by Governor
Kibbey, entered upon an attempt
to make the immense mining cor
poralions Of Arizona pay some
thing like their just proportion of
taxation, Mr.. ElIinwood, despite
the fact that he was serving as
district attorney OF Yavapai county,
exerted his greatest efforts toward
the overthrow of the movement,
thereby attempting the defeat of
Justices ends and participating in
an organized movement to rob the
people who placed him in office.
In this effort he was partially
successful, though only tempor-
arily so, and as reward for his
zeal on behalf of the corporations
he has been given place on the
law staff of the greatest mining
company in Arizona.
There is nothing in the law
against Mr.. Ellinwood accepting
lucrative employment. 1t is to
his credit that be his competent to
secure such employment.
But the interests of the Copper
Queen Mining Company while it is
not necessary that they should, al
ways conflict with the principles
Of the democratic party, and no
man can serve both masters with
fairness to the people and to his
smployers-and the employers
will see that they are not over
looked.
Mr.. Ellinwood has a right to
serve bis wealthy and exacting
patrons, but he ought to have the
taste to retire from the democratic
leadership"
