JOLT FOR HAMBURGER.
Private Detective Loses Els License -
special Policemen.

Acting Police Commissions O'Keene has
revoked the license Of Jacob q. Ham
burger, head OF a private detective agency
in Brooklyn, as a special policeman, and
has also requested Secretary Of State
Whalen to revoke his license as State
detective. He explained that he had
taken this action on the recommen dalton
u Inspector Flood, who is in charge Of
the BROOKLYN department.
About the middle OF July Hamburger
was employed bv Commissioner Bingham
to investigate certain rumors about al
legged police grating at Coney Island and
in other sections Of Brooklyn. and he sub
mitted reports confirming some Of the
stories. Commissioner Bingham three
weeks discontinued H~amburger'-
services and later there was a long screed
in a Brooklyn paper in regard 20 Ham
burgers sensational revelations. Ham
burger himself minated that there was
wholesale grating among the Brooklyn
cops. but took occasion TO exonerate
Deputy Commi ssioner O'Keeffe from all
knowledge Of the same.
He was indignant when he learned of
the revo cation Of his license. pronounced
it a piece Of spite work and declared that
he would appeal to the courts.

called by Mr.. Wins to testify as to what in
his opinion would be a fair appraisal Of the
worth OF those lines.
When h investigation 10 resumed on
Tuesday Mr.. Twins will begin his examina-
ton into the operating methods Of the
inter-Met, particularly with regard to the
surface roads. Mr.. WINS during the past
week has had o large number OF inspectors
at work comparing the running times of
the surface cars with the schedules given
to him'by the company Of the number of
cars In service mi the headway maintained
al various hours Of the day. The reports
OF tnese inspectors, II is stated, show that
the schedules are not followed and the
surface lines are run on such long Roadway
that crowding OF the passengers is inev-
table.
One point hat Mr.. Twins intends to dwell
upon next Tuesday 10 the reason why the
company thinks itself warranted practically
in shutting OF the Broadway surface cars
between the Battery and Houston street
at night time. When President Shonts.
was on the stand he asserted that the com
pany was only too anxious to run more
cars on Broadw way, but that il could not do
so because OF the congested vehicular traffic.
There are very few wagons on lower Broad
way at night, yet Mr.. Ivins's inspectors
have data showing that so few cars are
run on Broadway south Of Houston street
that ferry passengers landing at the Battery
are always unable to find enough car accom-
mediation to take them uptown and are
compelled to travel on either the elevated
or subway lines.

More Expert Testimony on the ReIa-
tive Cost Of the LenG and short Haul.
The Southern Railway continued yester-

North Carolina from enforcing its ~ cent

show that il was much more expensive
TO carry ocal traffic than general traf1o,
and that an enforcement OF the rate would

in the Office of the Southern Railway at
W Broadway and was before the master
in chancery appointed by Judge Pritchard
of the United States Circuit Court.
The first witness was John M. Daily.
who IL car accountant Of the Illinois e
trial and is in charge of its special investiga-
tons Of traffic. MIR. Daily gave the results
of a detailed investigation which he has
made on the transportation Of live stock
in Iowa. He compared especially the
cost of such transportation between Chero-
kee and Sioux City. a distance OF sixty
miles. and the cost between Cherokee
and Chicago. a distance of $50 miles. He
showed that the rate on the short haul
was So cents and only about three times

The local business in North Carolina
was one Of the most expensive in the coun-

that the population was not dense. that
there were few large cities between winch

that cotton and leaf tobacco. which were

This last statement the counsel for North

Utica. Aug. l7.-Former United States
Senator Warner Miller does not believe
that President Roosevelt will be renom-
mated by the Republican national oon-
vention next year. The ex-senator in an
extended interview has this 20 say regard
ing the Presidential situation:
Some complaint ia heard that New York
usurps more than her share Of Presidents,
The same complaint was made at the forma-
ton OF our Government concerning Viz
Rinia. Arthur and Roosevelt were cleo ted
Vice-Presidents. Virginia and Ohio were
the birthplaces OF Grant. Garfield and
Mckinley. The Republican party has not
been too avaricious. but has sought for
the best candidates available. The control
is now west OF the Alleghanies. Should
New York receive the nomination il will lie
by courtesy ,
Bryan will probably run on the Demo-
cratic ticket. but he will be showed under
again. There will be no fight for the Demo-
cratic nomination. for who IN there suf-
hciently capable TO wrest the leadership
from the N~ebraskan? There is some talk
among Republicans for hughes for Presi-
dent. but he Is doing excellent work as
Governor and, his work there is not COM
pleted.
The waving by Roosevelt Of another
term is a sincere one. The Republican
field for Presidential possibilities Is now
held by Taft. Fairbanks and Cannon, and
TO me it looks as II one Of these will carry
on the honor"

Companion Seaman Field was one Of
the Oldest and most honorcd Compan-

As men and Masons we shall miss

Peace TO his ashes, forever his mem.

To the stricken family and relatives
Of our departed Companion we extend
the sympathy and love Of Royal Arch
