until September ~. and no prosecution has
developed from IL. The frequent adjourn
ments tired out the police completely and
Walsh has been bothered with few pool
room cases since.
All through walsh's district Cooper. his
fellow delegate TO Buffalo. is known COM
monty as the Magistrates commissioner.
and tories Of racetrack ventures among
the Magistrates friends are many. Over
on Seventh avenue there is a certain cigar
store where walsh's leaders meet regu-
lariy every Thursday night. There are
great stories a. to the swift game Of poker
that goes on there. Magistrate Walsh
counts himself a friend Of The keeper OF
the place.
What attachments Walsh has for the
higher bench have been indicated only
by his service under two district at
torneys az an assistant. One OF them was
Asa Bird Gardiner, Of TO hell with reform
fame. He served for a time under Gardi-
ner's successor, Mr.. Philbin. He soon be-
came the counsel for the Liquor Dealers
Association, and was appointed to the
Magistrates bench on September rs Of
last year because Of Murphy's desire to
be on good terms with that organization.
He once was elected 20 Congress, but that
was in 1894.
As a Magistrate Walsh has not only made
himself conspicuous for throwing out
excise and poolroom arrests. but he has
been the worst offender Of all the Magis-
trates in indifference to his work. The
law requires that the Magistrate courts
shaIl open at 0 o'clock every morning.
During most Of the humid summer Walsh
got TO court nearer 10 o'clock than $50.
Policemen, prisoners, those who were
seeking summonses or warrants were kept
waiting for him repeatedly. Scores Of
persons III IMPLY simmered in the hot stuffy
court rooms waiting for him to appear.
Those who wanted summonses often had
10 wait three hours TO get his attention and
many lave been the angry words uttered
in court over his delays in beginning
business.
At all times Tammany politicians have
had his ear in court. Frequently charge
have been reduced in the gravity Of the
offence in his court to keep the cases from
foing TO Special Sessions. Politicians not
members OF the bar lave been allowed TO
appear and cross-question witnesses. Dis
orderly house arrests have aroused his
ire repeatedly and it has been the rule
since he was elected district leader o n
June 20 last by a rump convention OF the
general committee Of his district that these

Walsh has become known as the one cent
fine man. Where he has found prisoners
guilty Of violating corporation ordinances

FAITH IN OUR INSURANCE.
Prof. Gore on the Results OF the Actuares'
CONGRESS.

Prof. j. II. Gore Of Georgetown Cniver-
sity. who was the United States delegate
TO the congress Of actuaries at Berlin. re-
turned here yesterday on the steamship
Potsdam.
The discussion Of the congress showed
plainly that the insurance scandals in this
country have not shaken the confidence OF
Europeans in American insurance COM
panies.' said Prof. Gore. The Official
participation Of the United States at the
congress was in itself An Endorsement Of
the insurance companies.
The question OF the insurance Of teetotal-
lers anne up for long discussion in the con
gress. And yet they have not been loo ed
upon as a separate class Of risk in any
country and there were no actual figures
TO be had. The question was il il wa ad-
visable to separate them. OF course the
representatives from the wine drinking
countries were not in favor Of separating
the teetotaller. though the English dele
gates favored il. as did n Of the German
members OF the body
AT the special invitation OF the Rumanian
Government Prof. Gore visited Bucharest
to advise with experts there on the use Of
corn as food. II seems that the Rmnanians
have only one kind OF corn food, a sort OF
mush that makes the soldiers sick when
fed TO them for TOO long a time. so Prof.
Gore went over there armed with all kinds
OF recipes for dishes known TO US in this
country and showed the experts how TO
prepare hominy and other dishes.

years old, Of IS Bowery, was held for trial
in the Harlem police court yesterday on a
charge OF robbery made by Mrs. Hannah
Wallace OF 6l2 West I47th street. Bailey

Bailey was held at DR.. Smiths home until
the detectives arrived.
Bailey told the detectives, they say, that
he sold some OF the jewelry in Providence.
He said he went there and had a good time
on the money. At first he refused to tell
where ne had disposed Of some rings, but
he finally said he sold them to the ieweller
on Second avenue. Grifith disguised him

and then with Bailey and Meckert went to

introduced Griffith as a pal OF MS, and
said that his word was doubted as TO the
amount he had received for the rings.
Sikowsky aid that he could not remem-
Der just what he had given for the jewelry.
Griffith says he then told Sikowsky that ne
had about fifteen watches and some fine
rings tina he wanted to yet rid Of, and
asked Sikowsky il he could come down in
the evening with them. He says the Jew
eller told him TO come.
The detectives started TO search the
place, but Sikowsky said that they could
not 70 through his store without a search
warrant. Both Bailey and Sikowsky we're
then taken to the Harlem court before
Magistrate Walsh. The Detectives got the
