KELSEY ON THE RACK
HUGHES PERSONALLY EXAMINES
 INSURANCE COMMISSIONER.
AdmItted that He Never Dischargd an Attache of Department Because of Expenses of fhe Arm
 strong Committee.

Albany, x. F., Feb, 1s.-For nearly two hours this afternoon Governor Hughes in person examined Superin- tendent otto Kelsey of the State In- Suranee Department, searchlngly as to his acquaintance with the revela- tions made before the insurance in- vestigating committee regarding abuses in the life insurance business: as to his reason for retaining in the department officials and employees whose conduct was brought fin ques. ton during that Investigation; as to his appreciation of the need of dras. tic house cleaning" in the department and as to his preparations for the election of directors of the Mutual Life Insurance Company.
 Superintendent Kesley admitted that he had never made a thorough study of the report of the Armstrong com mission, reading from 1t only occas- ionaily as specific matters made part ioular portions of it of interest. al- though he said that at one time and another he believed he had read tt all. He admitted that he had removed no one from his department as a re- suit of the legislative investigation, although he intended eventually to dispense with the services of first de- work in the department was in such shape as to make 1t possible
 MT. Vanderpoel resigned few weeks ago. but 1t appeared that aside from his resignation and those of three minor employees the personnel of the department is the same as when MT. Kelsey assumed office last May.
 Mr Kelsey admitted that he had never examined the roster of his de- partment in the light of revelations before the Armstrong committee as to the affiliations of certain employees with officials of insurance companies who were involved in that insurance exposure.
 Superintendent Kelsey admitted that not until two days before the election of directors of the Mutual companies last December did he appoint the in- spOctors who were to have charge of the election and tha: he finally left to a firm of expert accountants en- gagged for the purpose the details of the plan upon which the votes were to bs received and canvassed He had prepared no plan of his own.
 At the close of the examination Gov. Hughe~ told Mir. Kelsey he would be pleased to receive any additional statement of facts which would show his idea of and attitude toward the work and needs of the depart ment or his action upon the various weighty matters upon which the in- surance investigation has thrown light. The governor said he dld not want an argument: he merely desired to get at the facts.
 Gov. Hughes said tonight that he could not tell definitely whether the matter would be ready to submit to the senate tomorrow. He wanted to give the superintendent of insurance opportunity to present any matter he desired.

 Nolan said that few nights before the shooting Private Newton. a ne- gro soldier, came to the hospital for treatment His face was badly bruised and Nolan asked him how he was in- jured.
 According to Nolan's story. Newton said that he was in town and that a man knocked him down with the butt of his six shooter without reason. No- Ian told the man 1t was funny" he did not sSnow the reason for the as- sault and Newton insisted that he did nothing. Nolan said that Newton then said:
 .weli. that's the way it was; but we'll fix the - yet
 Nolan said he told the man he should not talk that way; that he would get into trouble.
 h the cross examination Nolan said that there was only one call to arms and that was rendered by tho musi- clans at the guard house gate and twenty-flve or thirty minutes elapsed between tho first shot and the call to arms.
 William Harden. negro exrprtvate
 
 was in the hospital convalescent on August 13. and that he had been given uermission to go to the post exchange to buy an apple pie. but had been in- structed to get back before tho arrival of Major McComb, who was acting sur geon at the hospital. While he was coming back he said he almost ran into Major Penrose. Major McComb and another man walKing toward the hos- pital. He said that he stepped back 10 let them pass and they stepped and began 10 talk. The strange man. ac- cerding to Harden. said:
 1T tell you Texas won't stand Tor it.'' He then said something about an as- sautt npor, his wife and added: If soune soldiers are not put under arrest bv f0. o'clock tonight we'll kill every damned nigger soldier in Fort Brown
 Harden said he lodged Into the hos pitai and heard nothing more. Harden said Sergeant Sanborn ordered him to get back of a brick pile and he got be- hind ono himself. During the firing, the witness said that Nolan also was on the porch and that he got behind pillar so as not to be struck by stray buliets He said he heard about fifteen horse- men gaIloping around the country foad and entering the town.

HIJNDLEY IS
 TURNED DOWN. Sub Committees Ad-
 verse Re3rt. SCOTT IS $AL WORKING Referee B ses There is StaI He lor Huntsvillian. Record s Appoiatee in Alabama state Senate as Democrat is Said to
 Have worked Against
 Him.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-(Special. l-- The subcommittee of the Senate Ju- dietary Committee today drafted a re- port adversely to the claims of Oscar R. Hundley of Huntsville to be United States Attorney for the Northern Dis trict of Alabama.
 The report has not yet been submit ted to the whole committee. but 1t will be in few days. Among Alabamians of both parties this action Is construed tc mean that MT. Hundley will be re- jected by the Senate and 1t Is not thought in view of such action that President Roosevelt will re-apposnt him after the expiration of the present Con- gress.
 According to the gossip heard here the prevailing opinion Is that If no ac- ton had been taken by the sub-com- mittee even the President would hold he ought to appoint MT. Hundley again, but this turn of events puts an entire- ly different phase upon the case.
 It is understood that in the report considerable reference is to DC made to Mir. Hundley's service in the State Senate of Alabama, when ne was Democrat and the school auestion was brought up affecting the whites and blacks, and in which Colonel Wiley, at the same time a member of that body, had several tits with MT. Hund- Y ley. present, and Referee Scott Is also still in the cits. all stopping ct the same hotel.
 Ihere is no doubt that Captain Scott ia doing everything in his power to bring about the confirmation Of ms friend. but the indications are he VIII have to get some additional influence hefnre he succeeds. It will be recall cd in the dispatches to The Advertiser Il fcw days ago, Captain Scott stated that if the sub-committee reported un- favofably on the Hundley nomination, another subcommittee would bo- ap- nointed. Nothing in that direction has vet rnateriaIized. However, tho best informed people here arc wondering vrfat influence Scott will bring 70 bear.
 some persons are posstiTa no can qo InothgfaE others Incline co the beiief that ho Is resourceful and has a card s'up his sleeve" which will be played before the close of the present session of Congress.
 Tine Senate Judiicary Committee to- day decided to report favorably with ont amendment the bilf of Representa- five Clayton, which passed the House recently, and which was fully explain ed in these dispatches, providing Tor an additional United States judge in Ala- barna, and the indications are that 1t will be favorably acted upon in the up. per branch of Congress.
 Mir. Clayton worked hard for the measure In the House. and got tt through, and Senator Pettus in the other branch, has done his part well. Senator Morgan is still confined to his residence by a bad cold
 The venerable statesman Is not be- lieyed to be in any danger, but he Is not taking any chances by coming out while the weather here is so uncertain. He has not attended the sessions of the Senate for the past two weeks.

WHITES VS. NEGROES
CONFLICTING TESTIMONY IN THE
 BROWNSVILLE HEARING.
CaucnsIan Hospital soldier Says That Firing Came From Troops While Negroes Say it Came From
 Town.

Washington, Feb. IS. Witnesses in the Brownsville hearing today testi- fled that the shooting began in the rear of the commissary, away from the town and continued around the road and in the town. while the call to arms was being sounded. The com- mlttee on military affairs heard great deal of contradictory testimony, the value of which must be determin- cd by other witnesses. As to certain incidents it was white soldier against negro ex-Soldier
 When the afternoon session of the committee was opened Charles w. Askev, an ex-soldier who had given confusing testimony during the fore noon was not recalled as was expec- ted. Senator Foraker called Holt Robinson, formerly of Company D. who was musician of the guard and sounded the call to arms on the night of August IS. The call was sounded, he said, about midnight after he had been awakened by Sergeant Reid and his call was taken mp by the trump eters at the barracks.
 He said the firing continued for about fifteen minutes after the call had ceased. He thought the men fir ing the shots were stationed in the town near the gate into the military reservation.
 The next witness was W. c. No Ian, a private of the first class in the hospital corps, a white soldier. He said that he was at the hospital when the shooting began with Sergcants Altman and Sanborn and three or four other patients. He was awake, he said. suffering with muscular rheu- matism. The first shot he thought came from the rear of the commissary, back of the hospital and not from the direction Of the town. He said in q few minutes there were three more shots and then five shots which he said sounded as if the men firing them were moving around the road
 Northeast of the town is a saloon which was opened for the night trade and Nolan said that from near that point several more shots were fired and then from a point near the gate into the reservation came a volley of

away of Stanford White. It was also said tonight that Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw might go on the stand tomorrow afternoon to complete her story.
 Delmas Commands situntion.
 The trial today entered its fifth week.. The opening of court found Attorney Delmas again in his accus- toned place at the head of Thaw's counsel table. During the day there was no snrface indication of the storm which it Is said ragged among counsel for the defense during the latter part of last week after the trial had been adjourned because of the death of Juror Bottoms wife. MT. Bolton was, early at the criminal courts building today and said that he felt perfectly able to go on with the trial. It was decided that the jurors should not again be confined until they finally retire to make up their verdict.
 Dr. Evans, who has been by far the most important witness for the de- fense among the medical experts. de- tailed at great length his conversa- tions with Thaw in the Tombs. He told how Thaw declared that his law yers and physicians were in con- splracy with the district attorney to railroad him off to an asylum and to prevent his case from coming to trial.
 Thaw told the physician that in his attempts to bring Stanford White to justice. he had complained to District Attorney Jerome, and that the latter had told him to let the matter drop: that there was nothing to 1t. He also complained to Anthony comstock and to a detective agency.
 Dr. Evans was corroborated as to most of Thaw's statements by Dr. Charles c. Wagner of Binghampton. who first figured as witness early last week.
 Late in the afternoon. District Att torney Jerome cross examined Dr. Evans briefly on the one point of his opinion that Thaw was of unsound mind at the time of executing his will. The prosecutor and witness flashed fire at the first contact and there was ev- cry indication that when MT, Jerome undertook Dr. Evahs's cross examina- ton in general the proceedigs would be as lively and interesting as any ever heard in a local court room. Dr. Evans met the preliminary attacks boldly and seemed as ready with his wit as the District Attorney.
