NEW YORK, Oct. S lt is opc1 season for multi milionair"s all thr year round now in New York, and the money kings who last year returned
 laughing from ihcir summer tr.ps abroad, don 't see much to laugh about at present. Things look differently this fall. and what with fines, criminal prosecutions. ihrcats of dissolution suits and poor stock market, their cup of trouble K brmming ovc". These are sad days for New York 's moncycd maguatcs They are rapidly falling from their high state of nloof- ness and getting the same treatment which is accorded to everybody else. To have to dodge subpocnas and their servers during business hours k bad enough. by now ihe democratic spirit of equality K keeping them busy, not to say uncomfortable, in their hours of recreation. Pity the sorrows of inc poor money kings who cannot escape the lcvcling influence anywhere. Tho last straw has apparently been reach- cd. for only last week |. F. Morgan was fined tIjj for having l3 small trout in his ice box in his Adirondack camp, just bccausc the trout season happens to bc over. This, in addition to the $25 for violating the law, amounts to &lO for each fish. n rather high price even for Morgan in tacso days of appreciated stocks. But tho father of the steel trust is not alone in his tribulations. Poor John D. Rockefeller has just discovered that acting under the order of the New Public Utilities commission the New York Central will no longer stop i,s express trains ns it used to do io pick him up ni whatever station hc might happen to he. Hereafter h. will get just inc same service that the rest of inc public does. a condition of nl

Damaging Evidence Is Introduced By The
 Prosecution
Salazar Makes But One Effort In His
 Own Behalf
Prom Saturday. Daily)

Mariana Salalar, charged with the murder of A. NJ. Morino, and Inc probable fatal shooting of his mistress, Catalina Chavcs, at his camp, about ono mile from Copper Creek, Tuesday evening, at 10 o'clock, wns given a preliminary hearing. yesterday after. noon, before Justice of the Peace M'- Lane, and bound over ,o awai; inc nc'ion of the grand jury, being rr. manded to jnil without bail.
 Salaaar, in appearance. is one of inc low caste old Mexico natives. and seems more of an ignoramus than a coid-bloodcd murderer. During h,s bearing hc took little part in the pro- cecdings, othcr than giving his carc- ful attention to the reading of tho complaint against him, which was in. terprcted into jhc Spanish language, ne profcssing ignorance of English. That he understood English. however. vas demonstrated when hc asked John Roberts, deputy sheriff, at the con cIusion of the latter s testimony, which was rendered in English and not inter. prr,cd for the prisoners benefit, if it was not n fact that the Cbaycs woman, when asked by Roberts if he. Salaz,r, was inc man who shot her. had re- piled "No." and that. after another party prcsen, had whispered something to her. she changed her answer to "Ycs.'
 Deputy Roberts, who arrested Sala- gar, had testified the woman said Sala- gar was the man who shot her, and IL was evident, from the nature of his question. that tnc prisoner had follow. ei Roberts testimony sunicicntly ,o recognize the damaging nature of the evidence being given against him.
 Deputy Roberts "cclarcd ihc woman had positively identified the prisoner as the man wfo killed Morino and shot her, and haI moi answered "No" to his question is it was Salazar who shot her. After this answer Snlaz,- LOOK no fufih"r ict'Nc part in the pro- cecdings.
 Homer Wood was next sworn. and testified as to taking the Chavcs wo- mans deposition m his capacity of notary public. This deposition. which indicated Salalar ar the guilty party, was introduced in evidence, nf;er which the prisoner, without taking inc stand or introducing any witnesses in his own behalf, waa bound over.

The arrival of the giant Lusitania
 has done more than anything else to awaken New York to n relaization of the fact that her dock and harbor fla. ciliii"s need serious attention if they are to continue to accommodate tho newest boats. The Lusitania, in- deed. had little water 60 spare in the new Ambrose channel, just opened. ex. cept for which she never could nave reached her dock.

 be constructed in a year, harbor i'm. provemcnts t0 meet it would require many years of labor, n fact which has served io emphasize the need of i'm mediate and systematic development. since what is citcd as the busiest har. Dor in the world cannot easily retain its iitle. AS n result the Chamber
 of Commerce has appointed n special committee, known as the Terminal committee, to investigate the facilities for frcigh, handling as they now ex. ist on the water front, and particular. ly, as might be guessed from the name, the city's terminal facilities in the harbor At present a thorough investi- gation Is being made of the Bush Ter. mionl in Brooklyn, with m cys to

The man who has literally seen death pass by seventeen times m th, list ihiriy.two months is inc ti,l" given to n prisoner named Gnsconc. now in prison, who will shortly come to trial for murder for the second time. He was convicted of murder ir the first degree in 1903, and since then aas passed more than two and oDc-half years in the "doath house v at Sing Sing, while the court of ap- pcals was deciding to allow him new trial. The death house is that DOT. ton of the prison in which murdcrors are placed preparatory to going 'o the electric chair. None hut those who are to suffer the extreme penalty of the law are brought to these dunrte.a. and yet Gasconc, who formerly was near the top of the list has seen s,v- entcen of his fellow tenants pass by on their way to the chair never to rc. turn. In this way death has literalI / passed by seventeen times. During the two years and half Gascone says he has become acquainted with all tac greatest living murdcrcrs and some of the dead ones.

this time the hospital corps of the two
armies will hurry over the field Of
carnage, ministering to the suffering
and conveying them to the hospitals,
where those who have escaped thu
deadly shrapnell or the singing pellets
of lead, will reckon with the surgeons.
The "War Correspondents"
Perhaps one of the most instructive
features of the mimic carnage will be
the brilliant appearance of the war
correspondence for the local papers.
These fearless soldiers of fortune,
needless of the sleet Of death swirling
about them, will be observed, astride
prancing steeds, riding from one por-
ton Of the field to another. They will
be best identified not by the brilliance
of their glittering uniforms and white
sashes. but by flourish of pencils and
hutter of paper. Some of them will sit
Pegasus with about the same grace as
a sack of oats.
Careless of the rain of lead. the rip
ping sound of musketry, the blaze and
roar of artillery. these worthy gentle
men will gallop from place to place in
Guest of items and slug-head scoops
