BIG PAYMENTS TO TOWN TOPICS
How Colonel Mann Makes Profit on
His Subscription List.

New York, Jan. 23.--In the libel suit
of Colonel w. d. Mann against Editor
Hapgood of Golfers Weekly, some
sensational exposures have been made.
Colonel Mann testified that he had Dor
rowed nearly 100000 from J. p. Nor
gan, James r. keene. w. X. Wander
bilt, William c. Whitney, aand other
prominent tinanciers.
Many of these loans We're never re-
paid so far as Colonel Mann could re-
call and others We're repaid in stock
of Town Topics at $1,000 a share. The
largest single loan was obtained from
James r. keene, who loaned the Town
Topics editor 100000. From w. X.
Vanderbilt Col. Mann obtained 1000:
from ]. p. Morgan $4,000: from w. c.
Whitney $4,000: from Coils p. Hunt
ington $1,000; from John w. Gates
$4,000; Charles NJ. Schwab $4,000;
Thomas F. Ryan $4,000.
How did you become friendly with
Senator Clark of Montana without
money!" was asked the witness.
There was some correspondence
with him. said the colonel. THE
senator came to my office and talked
for an hour or two. He said he was
building railroad. He said he was
going to issue bonds only when the
road was completed and that could
have some of the bonds then. From
that day to this have not seen Sena-
tor Clark"
Did you ever borrow from Charles
Schwab"" asked Mr.. Osborne.
II applied for loan of $4,000 from
him on stock of the Alger, sullivan
Lumber company. and he agreed t,
take the stock and give me the 100000
did you get it,"
Some one brought the money int,
the office and 1t was left there but
did not handle it."
And you don't know who it was tina
brought the money!"
No"

Campaigning in Ohio.
Washington Post.

Il like To campaign in Ohio" said
Representative Cousin. of Iowa. Il
have campaign in my own state this
coming year. but hope to have time
for few speeches in Ohio. They know
how to treat a fellow out there. and
even democratic audience is cheer
full. Once l was making speech in a
small town. The hall was full and
some rough looking men kept inter-
rupting by calling me liar and few
other things. I gave it back to them
and they seemed to enjoy ii. However
l was puzzled that my best periods
aroused no applause.
When the meeting ended the chair
man whispered that we had best gel
out. demurred, saying that I wanted
to shake hands with some of the au-
dience and get acquainted. The chair
man looked panied and distressed urg.
ing me to go. as the big. husky looking
chaps might start fight. asked II
there We're not enough of our own PEG.
pie to protect us. and the chairman ex-
claimed Heavens. man. You and
are the only republicans in the hail.
Then understood why my speech
aroused all else but favor or applause
Il was democratic stronghold ant
BIT. one republican vote in the hail.

Salla and Anna de Belocca We're in the
company. On arriving at the hotel both
ladies chose the best suit Of rooms in it.

Il shall have them," said Salla. Il am
prima donna There are two prima
donnas,' returned Belocca, myself
and Patti" This began furious
quarrel. Mapieson went to the hotel
keeper and ascertained that there
We're some other rooms nearly as good.
He enjoined the man to declare that
they We're for Lady Spencer. wife of
the viceroy. and stand to the state
ment. He then called him up and said
loudly: Both these ladies must have
equally good rooms. Where are the
others?'' The only others as large are
reserved for the Countess Spencer" re-
turned the hotel keeper. But we
could see them!" exclaimed both sing
ers at once. ''Oh. yes" said the man
leading the way. Belocca instantly
few upstairs past him into the suit
and. locking the door in their faces
shouted through the keyhole that Lady
Spencer must get on as best she could
leaving Mapleson to congratulate him
self on the effect Of his stratagem.

the wells alone to keep him busy for

cept sugar. tobacco and rice, on which
