LEE MARTIN ON STAND.
Unable to Tell Much to Creditors of
Bankrupt Firm.


The second hearing in the Martin bank
ruptcy case was held yesterday before
Justice McCalmont. referee in bank
ruptcy
Lee Martin occupied the stand prac-
tically all day, and 10 most questions by
the attorneys for the creditors Of the
firm he answered that che didn't know
or that he didn't recall" He made one
significant remark, saying: II often
signed releases on property and other
papers without knowing what I signed.
Ny brother Tom would bring paper to
my desk and say, Here, sign this. I've
signed it. It's all right I would sign
It without question. Sometimes later on
would ask him what the papers were
about"
Being shown a number OF notes the
signatures on which the attorneys wanted
the witness to identify, Martin In most
instances said he was not positive whether
they were his own. His testimony was
TO the effect that he did not know any
think about the business of Thomas r.
Martin.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY STUMPED
Prosecution of Important Cases
Hnmp@red by Lack of Funds.

Hnmpered by Lack of Funds.
As matters stand at present it looks as
II the Office Of the United States District
Attorney would be considerably hampered
when the courts reconvene in the fall in
the forcible prosecution Of the many i'm
portant criminal cases on the calendar
for trial.
Congress at the last session only ap-
propTiated $1,000 for the use Of the dis
trict attorneys Office for the purpose Of
witness fees and similar expenses. Con-
sldering that in the Hyde-B -Dimond
land fraud case. which was TO have been
called up for trial In the fall term, 800
witnesses will be called to testify. most
Of whom reside in Oregon and California,
and that about $4,000 is necessary 10
pay their fes and expenses, it seems self
evident that District Attorney Baker is
up against one Of the toughest problems
order to make ends meet.
Unless Congress makes an additional
appropriation for the use Of the district
rattorneys office. the Hyde-Benson-
Dimon land fraud case viii have TO be
postponed Indefinitely, or. at least, until
that time when there will be sufficient
funds at the disposal OF the prosecutor s
Office to pay witness and other expenses.
IN view Of this condition of affairs it
may be necessary to reaFrange the whole
schedule of trials so as 70 keep expenses
within the appropriation. In former
years whenever the appropriations for
! their departments were exhausted, their
respective chiefs did not postpone opera
tons until the next Congress appropriated
additional funds, but simply continued in
| their work, relying on Congress to pass
the necessary deficiency appropriation. A
law was enacted by Congress a few years
ago prohibiting the various departments
Of the government from spending more
money than has been actually appropri-
ated for their use during the fiscal year.

condition of two OF the ice plants OF the
District was the subject of a statement
yesterday BY Health officer ". c. Wood
ward In which he says that the conditions
alleged were first brought 20 the attention

merely the cold-storage department OF a
local packing house. and did not sell
ice generally.
The conditions reported by the Public
Health and Marine Hospital Service did
not exist, he states, at the time OF tins
inspection certain improvements having
been made which 1t was represented had
done away with them. At the other es-
Enlistment certain structural defects
were found. which he says. with SIN

A Verse From, Solomon Told Sof a Mar
rage Engagement.
When she left her home in the small
town to come to New York to take up
special course Of study her pet sis.
ter was fast reaching the crisis of q
love affair. The pet sister was a most
winsome young lady and had long kept
a goodlys train of suitors assigning.
Was this affair to be the grand affair?
The older sister hoped SO, for she liked
the young man cordially thought he
was just the sort to make a proper
sbrother-in-law.
But the weeks passed, and not bit
of definite news about the progress Of
the affair did the older sister receive
In her city boarding house. She be-
came anxious. Louise, she thought,
must not go on recklessly trifling in
such important matters. 4
Then one night about 10 o'clock, just
as she was going to bed. came a tele-
gram. The servant brought it up.
The elder sister was country girl
enough to be thoroughly frightened by
the pale manila, black linked envelope.
How ominous it looked! At length she
gathered courage to open it. This is
what she read:
Solomon six three LOUISE. T.
Solomon six three, Whatever in the
world! Oh, why, yes, stupid, it of
course meant the Song Of Solomon,
sixth chapter, third verse! But-and
her cheeks flushed with shame she
had no Biblei
There was a great scurrying about
the boarding house to find q copy of
the sacred book. The girls were rout-
ed out in vain. On all sides the cry
arose, who's got Bible?' Just think
Of the sister trying to sleep that night
without knowing what that verse was!
1t would have been Just like woman
to lie down to pleasant dreams, content
to know that she could satisfy her GU
rfosity In the morning not!
The landlady. good soul, came to the
rescue. She was no heather. She had
q Bible. Up to her room with it few
the sister and shut the door. Such a

GUS fingers! Solomon six three. She
found 1t, and then she cried "Hurrahr'
