WALLACE SAYS
He Quit Because Chairman Shonts
Had Too Much To say About
the Canal

Washington, March 20.-At the aft
ernoon session of the senate Panama
canal committee Senator Morgan ask
ed Mr.. Wallace a number of questions
about the manner in which he became
a canal commissioner as well as chief
engineer, covering a good deal of
ground that had already been gone
over by the witness in his testimony
some weeks ago.
Mr.. Wallace said that in the re-or-
ganization of the new canal commits
sion, it was his understanding that
the three members of the executive
committee, Shonts, Magoon and HIM
self, would be supreme in their re-
spective functions. He expects Mr..
Shonts to be merely purchasing
agent who was to spend half his time
here and half on the isthmus. 1t very
soon became apparent, however, that
Mr.. Shonts was to be the supreme
head of all departments, and it was
to this that Mr.. Wallace principally
objected
Mr.. Morgan asked lot of ques-
tions to show that the canal commits
sion, headed by Admiral Walker, had
done great deal of work for which
they had not received full credit He
also inquired particularly about the
claim of the French canal company,
presented by Mr.. Cromwell for some
thing over $2,000,000, for the work
done between the time of the accept
ance of the company's offer to sell,
and the time when the purchase price
was paid by the United States This
claim Mr.. Wallace said was leglti-
mate.

dunn TELLS
The Court How the
Bridge Trust Worked
the Graft Business in
Hamilton County.

Sandusky, o., March 20-John J.
Dunn, of Columbus, a former bridge
agent, was a witness for the state
in the case against Henry Hughes to-
day. He told OF one Cincinnati case
where contract was let to the
Bracket Bridge Co. for $4,000 and
said other bidders were assured by
the Bracket people. sit would be all
right" The work, he said, was not
worth over $4,000 and told also Of
one job in Marion county but de-
clined to give details on the ground
that it might incriminate him. He
declared there was no pool in Erie
county for bridge work.

Lamb WAS A lion

Columbus. o., March 20.-iI.amb, the
Independent senator from Toledo, was
the big figure in the legislature this
afternoon. He spread dismay in the
Democratic ranks by casting his decis-
i've vote to confirm 81 appointments
made by Ex-Governor Herrick, and
which the Democrats had hoped to
reject in order that Governor Pattison
might appoint Democrats. The 81 we're
mostly trusteeships and memberships
Of boards of state institutions, practi-
cally without salaries but they con-
troll several thousand salaried posi-
tions and Lambs action is in accord
with the independent policy that
political upheaval should not affect
public institutions except for cause
The one big appointment Lamb hand
ed over to the Republicans was the
state commissionership of highways,
at $4,000 a year, but he voted to re-
ject the Republican ex-governors
| eads of departments. Il in number,
and Governor Pattison will now make
the latter appointments.
COX MEN REJECTED
The appointees were rejected in some
cases because they were known as Cox
men and in others because Governor
Pattison had signified a desire to make
the appointments. The Democrats are
furious and say it is case of spite
because Lamb was thwarted in his
ideas of salary bill. Lamb had
warned them that they were not living
up to their platform pledges and ipti-
mated that he might not feel willing to
hand the state institutions over to
them but the word was passed that
he was "bluffing."
The house today concurred in the
senate amendments to the Wilson sal
airy bill and it will go to the governor
for signature.
Many members were desirous of
amending but the speaker ruled that
the bill was no longer subject to
amendment.
AIKEN BILL IN DEADLOCK.
Columbus, O., March 20.-The Aiken
$1,000 Dow tax bill is deadlocked in
the senate temperance committee.
Senator Drake called the committee
together Tuesday to report the bill
out. Drake, Ward, Harper and Siles
responded. Atwell did not appear
He was sent for and brought to the
Coor. Then he balked. Ward object
cd to the Aiken bill. Harper stood
with him on his motion to postpone
indefinitely. The vote was 2 to 2.
Siles moved to report the bill out.
Drake stood with him, and again it
was 2 to 2. The bill is still in COM
mittee and likely to stay as long as
Atwell lodges the issue.

NO LAW AGAINST
GIVING UP MONEY
FOR CAMP PA|GNS
No Statutes Found in New York by
Jerome Which Would Hold the
Insurance Corporations.

New York, March 20.-So far as the
prosecuting attorneys Office of the
county of New York is concerned, no
criminal prosecution is to be under
taken of the directors of the big in
surance corporations who made con-
tributions of the funds Of their com
panies for political purposes. Dis
trict Attorney jerome today SUBJ
mitted to the court of general ses-
sions a long brief in which he holds
that from an extended and careful
examination of the authorities | have
come to the conclusion that the acts
embodied in the complaint given by
the court to the grand jury to inves
tigate, and which were alleged to be
criminal in that funds had been given
to a political party without due pro-
cess of law. do not show the commits
sion of the crime of larceny or of
any other crime. There can be no
crime without evil intent and there
is no legal prohibition against giving
to a political party.
THE LIE GIVEN.
Judge O'Sullivan, under whose di-
rection the grand jury had been in
structed to investigate the alleged
crime, coincided with the views of
District Attorney Jerome.
1t is stated tonight that an attempt
will now be made to have a policy
holders civil action brought to com
pei the directors of all of the COM
panies that made political contribu
tions to reimburse the companies for
this money.
Just before the district attorney
made this announcement Andrew
Hamilton gave the lie direct to Cor
nelius N. Bliss, treasurer of the Re
publican National committee, who had
said that Hamilton had not given
$4,000 insurance funds to the Repub,
lican campaign committee in 1896,
by producing voucher purporting to
be signed by Bliss. When Bliss was
told that Hamilton had displayed such
a document he angrily declared that
he had never signed it and the mat
ter has now resolved itself into a
question of yeracity between the two
men.

MAXWELL CLAIMS He
IS NOT A MORMON

Cleveland, O., March 20.-Dr. d. p.
Maxwell is in the county pail to plead
to the charge of performing a Grim
inal operation on Celia Ritter.
How does it feel to be kidnapped"
said Maxwell "Well, | couldn't help
myself The officers meant to come
east on the Rio Grande, but we just
missed the train that was wrecked
near Pueblo. We came by the I'm
ion Pacific"
rs it true, DR.. Maxwell, that you
embraced Mormonism while in Utah?"
Hardly that; but | was impressed
with their religion and their churches.
They are better people than outsid-
ers think"
Detective Bernhard says Maxwell
attempted to bribe him in Salt Lake,
promising mining stocks if he would
not secure an extradition. Bernhard
he'd Maxwell arrested on that charge.
"We ran Maxwell two blocks after
we got him." says Bernhardt in his
report to Chief Kohler, until we
found a cab. We drove that rig
through the streets like a runaway.
We made a dash for the train and
got Maxwell aboard. The train was
going west, not east. We got off at
Ogden, Utah. They had telegraphed
from Salt Lake to hold us We hid
Maxwell and put him aboard in the
yards outside"

Temperanee Leaders ACCUSED.

Columbus, o., March 20.-Deyelop-
ments in the senate committee on
temperance are sensational and the
charge is made that antkSaloon
league is secretly opposing the pass
age of the Aiken Aill increasing the
Dow tax to $1,000. In the obsence of
other plausible reason for the course
those who make the charge say they
are assuming that the anti-Saloon
league officials oppose the measure
because they fear the passage of such
bill would SO cripple the saloon
business that there would be no fu
ther need for the league and that the
men who are now drawing salaries
from the organization would have to
look for other jobs.

Ex- GOV. HERRIcK
Said to Be Back of Scheme to Create
Park Boards

Park Boards.
Columbus, o., March 20.-That ex-
Governor Herrick is behind a scheme
10 create park boards, serving without
pay, not responsible to the people and
designed to take control of the parks
out of the hands of boards of public
service, was revealed Tuesday, when
Representative Whitney, of Franklin
county, admitted that his bill to that
effect was suggested by the Cleveland
banker
Another bill similar in provisions
to the Whitney -Herrick measure, but
more drastic, has been introduced by
Representative Conroy. Behind both
bills is seen a scheme by real estate
Cealers of Cincinnati and Columbus to
Unload lot of land upon these two
cities.
HERRICK URGED 1T.
Whitney declares Herrick, ex-Mayor
Jeffrey, of Columbus, and George Lat
timer, of Columbus, asked him to in
troduce the bill. They were of the
opinion, said Whitney that there are
at least three rich men I'm Cincin-
Eati who are willing to serve the
city without compensation and take
care of the parks for the people and
take them out of politics. Conroy
says representatives of business organ
fzations in Cincinnati asked him to
introduce his bill. Neither he nor
Whitney knows just what the bills
mean.
A park board Of three or five "rich
men serving without compensation"
can do just as it pleases. The only
restriction on it is that it shall not
issue, in any one fiscal year, more
bonds than will equal in amount "A
Of per cent of the total value of all
property listed for taxation in the
city In the matter of levying taxes
the board cannot exceed one mill on
every dollar of valuation OF taxable
property. With the consent of the
council, however, the board can ex-
eeed both these limitations.
GRAFT FEARED.
Wholesale graft at the expense OF
Cincinnati appears to be behind this
Conroy park commissioner bill 4.
would fasten on the city the rotten
board system which the city has al
ready rebelled against and over
thrown"
This is the opinion of John G. Riley.
ex-postmaster of Cincinnati. He came
to Columbus Tuesday to oppose the
passage of the bill.
