pears to have been duly authorized
at the time by the department: that in

action to the foregoing end as might
seem to the court and to himself ap
propriate in the premises.
The department learns that Mr..
Sims did not comply with those i'll

CCNDOLENCE FOR HARTMAN

The arrest of E. H. Hartman on
the Thames river at New London, is
occasioning considerable merriment
and it is remarked that on his return
to Wall street, after little inter
view with the United States COM
missioner at New London, he was
numerically guyed. Truth, through
its special Geographic connection
with Mr. Harrimans office in the
money center of America, was able
to learn that on reaching his office,
Mr. Hartman found batch of tele-
grams and messages on his desk. hav-
ing special bearing on his "late afflic-
ton" Among them were the follow
ing:
Marvin Hughitt -" Real sorry for
you, old boy; but never mind, it was
merely piece of spite work on the
part of Teddy. He has evidently got
it in for you"
James ]. Hill-"Please accept con-
dolences. 1t was an outrage to seize
your boat in the middle of the race,
take you prisoner, and confscate
your craft. But that seems to be the
policy of the present Gar like adj
mnistration, in trying to repress the
hand of enterprise in this country.
Don't suppose you minded the $500
fine-mere bagatelle."
