his alleged connection with green goods

testimony given by J. f. Jenkins of Cam
den, S. c., and others. 1t is alleged that
Jenkins received from New York in July,
1904. copy of a letter signed H. W. Hill,
which reads:
Friend: l ineloSe you a card of the hotel

timore and Ohio railroad. 1t is safest.
When you arrive at the end of the railroad,
which is Jersey City be sure you take the

II necessary to ask for any information
concerning the location OF the hotel, ask
any official connected with the railroad. but,
of course, do not say anything to him about
the nature of the business which brings you
to New York city. and under no circum-
stances hold any conversation with strang
ers or permit cab drivers, hotel runners or
hackmen to influence you.
You are to stop at one hotel only; none
other; and you have the card for the same;
otherwise will not do business with you.
Il tell you this for your own protection"
Instead of falling victim of the alleged
confidence men the South Carolinian in

get him.
Commissioner Taylor held the prisoner In

lion "Vice.President's Room"
WASHINGTON, May 22.-There is a new
ornamental mat at the threshold OF the
room of Vice-President Fairbanks, just
outside the Senate chamber. 1t bears
the Inscription "Vioe-President's Room
Some of the Senate pages, who hear a
great deal that is being said behind the
scenes and are a wise set Of youngsters,
examined the mat to-day and had fun
with it. They played a game that had for
its object the formation OF significant
phrases out Of the three words upon the
mat. One youngster placed his foot along
the bottom Of the "R' in the last word
and made the inscription read: 'Vice-
Presidents Boom"
Then another, look ing hopefully into
the future, covered up the first word and
produced Presidents Room But q third
fellow was able to give another turn to the
words. Putting his foot over the first
letter he left the inscription: 'Ioe Presidents
Room
There was much applause at this, 80 much
in fact, that the attention OF an officer OF
the Senate was attracted. He drove the
Youngsters away from the door and ex-
amined the mat to see what was the matter
with it. He won't know until he reads
this.
