warm tribute to this university in
the name of my country"
Attorney General Bonaparte urg-
ed that it was the duty of Harvard
to educate men from whom this
democratic government could choose
able and honest statesmen. There
is too great a tendency, he said,
among present politicians to seek
that profession for profit.
I'VE need,' he said, men who
will enter this life prompted by I'M
selfish motives and by a desire to
serve their country rather than per-
sonal ends"
Ambassador Jusserand expressed
his appreciation of the degree award
ed him. He paid a tribute to the
great influence of Harvard. Refer

British Ambassador Bryce receiv-

the financial support her universe
ties received and on the fact that
so large a proportion of the popula-

al institutions.
Secretary Root also was warmly
greeted. He acknowledged his in

things, beginning with the friend
ships formed when he was student

INDICTMENTS NOW TO FOLLOW
Pennsylvania Graft Inquiry About
Completed.

Harrisburg, Pa Especially. - The
capitol investigating commission COM
pleted the taking of testimony Fri
day, with the examination of former
Governor Stone, of Pittsburg, pres
ident of the Capitol Building Com
mission, by which the contract was
let to Payne & Co. for the construc-
| ton of the capitol. Mr.. Stone was
also president of the board of
grounds and buildings by virtue of
his office of governor in 1902 when
the Pennsylvania Construction Com
pany was given the contract for me-
tallie furniture. This contract was
afterward made so elastic as to en-
able the Pennsylvania Construction
Company to supply 100000 worth
of metallic furniture for the capitol
which the commissions experts say
could have been furnished at prof
lit for $350,000.
In the course of his testimony for
mer Governor Stone said:
eve discovered that Huston was
visionary. While good architect he
was not good builder. He was
dreamer, impractical, and we found
that he had no care if he. exceeded
the appropriation of S4,000,000 for
the building. 1t became a question
If Huston could bind the commissios
to large expenditures by alterations
in his plans This, think, he would
have done had it not been for Ber-
nard Green, the commissions super
vising architect, who acted as a
check on Architect Huston and pre-
vented him from concentrating his
wild dreams for a capitol to cost
$25, 100000. We bore with Huston
as best we could and kept constant
watch on him without having an
open rupture. We did not care to
get rid of Huston and delay the
work with litigation.
The commission will now prepare
it's report to Governor Stewart, upon
which civil and criminal prosecutions
will be instituted by Attorney Gen
eral Todd.
The report will set forth, accord
ing to a member of the commission,
that there was evident collision and
conspiracy between Joseph M. Hus-
ton, the Philadelphia architect, and
John H. Sanderson, of Philadelphia,
contractor for the capitol furnish
ings that the contracts for the So
100000 furnishings were improperly
let and not to the lowest bidders;
that the furnishings were not pur-
chased at the prevailing market
prices, as the law requires; that in
ferior goods were supplied not in
accordance with the plans and speci-
fications, and that there is evidence
of shortages; that the members of
the building commission and of the
board of public grounds and build
ings were derelict in their duties to
the state in not checking the evident
fraud and collision that existed, and
that there were gross overcharges
and extravagances in supplying the
furnishings.
