Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
New York, Nov. 20.-A peculiar
light was thrown last night upon De-
tective Kane's eagerness to press
charges of insulting woman against
Signor Enrico Caruso.
Detective Kane admitted that he
had paid visit last Saturday to Mrs.
Hannah Graham. Last night he again
called on her. The woman who
charged Caruso with insulting her in
the animal house in the zoo gave the
name and address, but is not Mrs.
Graham. SLY.
Immediately after Kane made his
admission, it was declared by two per-
sons living in the house that he and
the real Mrs. Graham are apparently
old friends. Mrs. Graham and Kane
are both said to know the real woman
In the case.
The hearing in Yorkville court on
Wednesday will not drop the curtain in
this astonishing affair. Policeman
Kane, who made the arrest; Captain
Stephenson, his commanding officer at
the arsenal, and the police commission.
er s office will push the charge with
all their might. On the other hand,
Caruso's friends, who have rallied to
his support, Will use every effort to dis
credit Kane, and to show that the
charge was trumped up for motives
that will not bear scrutiny.
Heinrich Conreid has limited at
blackmail more than broadly, and Ca
russo IS attorneys are working hard on
allegations made to them which have
suggested that similar cases in the
monkey house before had made inno-
cent men victims.

PROUTY ANSWERS
j.. HILL'SPLAINT
Interstate Commerce Commits
sioner Denies Rate Law Is
Disastrous to Roads.

Chicago, Nov. 20. Commissioner
Charles A. Prouty of the interstate COM
merce commission, while in Chicago en-
route to Milwaukee, where an investi-
cation of the elevator situation will be
made, took issue with President James
j. Hill of the Great Northern and other
railway officials who recently have de-
elared that the government 9 rate legis-
lation policy tends to brighten in
and thereby to disable the roads from
making adequate provisions for hand
ling the country's traffic. Mr.. Prouty
said: .... -
1T came on the commission in 1897,
when business was Just beginning to re-
vive. Almost every year since then
business has grown better and traffic
heavier. The roads have said from
nae to Ee1 W: buy en 1anf ean
for this year s business, We won t need
it next year. and they have acted ac-
cordingly. This is the reason why traf-
tic has increased 50 much faster than
the facilities for handling it.
No General Reductions.
IT believe that tho tendency of rates
ought to be downward as traffic grows
denser, but the commission contemplates
no wholesale reduction: On the aver
age, rates are not exorbitant and rail-
roads probably will gain more by the
cutting off Of rebates and passes than
they will lose by reductions.'
Regarding a recent report that Presi-
dent Roosevelt would recommend in his
annual message legislation egalizing
the various railway traffic associations,
Mr.. Prouty said: --.n'
II have no information that the pres
ident will make any such recomme da-
ton, but personally I am in favor of
such legislation. There is no doubt the
existence Of the association violates the
antitrust laws. Nevertheless, they
serve useful purpose, and if their pro.
ceedings, were made lie and the
commission had supervision of rates
be robbed of their power for harm.''

Women of the town Of Arson are
wrought up over letter received
from John D. Rockefeller which stated
that he did not want his name men

church; that if the desired gift had in
volved thousands of dollars he might
have considered it, but that he did. not
want to be bothered with the bagatelle
asked.
The women wrote Rockefeller a few
