To the Public:

To the PUBIC:
1t is because 1 wish to wrong no
man that this statement is made. On
two occasions recently in addressing
myself to the temperance question, 1
have given publicly the report that
the liquor interests of Kentucky were
willing to put up a campaign fund of
500, 900 in order to secure the election
of A. E. Wilson, the Republican can
didate for Governor.
My words as to this league between
Mr.. Wilson and the liquor interests
were made upon what appeared to be
high authority.
Since making the remarks above
referred to / have been thoroughly
convinced that the story has no foun-
dation in fact, and so 1 not only with
draw my words, but express my
profound regret that l should have
been led by what I thought good au-
thority to the giving of currency to
a false story. M. P. Hunt

man who will kill him."
"rhe killing took place the next
day. The man Caleb Powers told
Cecil he was looking for in the morn
ing very evidently arrived. Caleb
boarded the train so as to be out of
town when the deed was done. Who
did he have in company with him?
F. Wharton Golden, now a witness
for the commonwealth. Henry Yout-
sey, in his confession, after he had
feigned insanity to escape hanging by
jury verdict, tells that he, at the
instance of Taylor, and at his dicta-
ton, Youtsey being a stenographer
to Taylor in those times, wrote a let
ter to Jim Howard to come to Frank
fort to kill Goebel and get a pardon.
He tells of the arrival of Howard at
Frankfort, of his presentation of the
letter addressed to him by Taylor and
of his (Youtsey) asking him to take
him to the Governors office en- route
to the private office of Caleb Powers,
from whence afterward sped his bull
let into the body of Goebel. Caleb
Powers testified that he locked his
office before leaving Frankfort the
fatal morning for Louisville.
THE TEMPERANCE ISSUE.
In an endeavor to show that the
Republican party is allied with the
liquor interests, the Democratic edi-
tors of the handbook declare that for
mer Governor Bradley is a regular
employed attorney Of the "whiskey
people,, and that John w, Yerkes
is their attorney at Washington. On
this point the handbook says:
THE Republican State Convention
in Louisville, which nominated Mr..
Wilson for Governor and the other
on that ticket, was pre-
sided over by Ex-Governor w. O.Brad-
ley, a regularly employed attorney
of the whiskey people, who appeared
as their legal representative in the
litigation against the State when the
rectifiers sought to have the courts
declare unconstitutional the act of the
Democratic General Assembly placing
a tax of IA cents on each gallon
of their product.
Another conspicuous leader of their
party, who was only detained from
their convention by an unfortunate &C
cident, but VINO from his sick bed had
much to do with the conduct of the
convention, was Hon. John w. Yer
kes, who is attorney for liquor in
terests at Washington City. Many
other such instances could be shown,
If necessary, about the dominant spir-
it's who controlled this convention, ard
this much has not been said to dis
credit these gentlemen, but rather to
show the bias and leaning of the lead
ers of that party who dictated the
and the platform"

this expense would be small compared with
the benefit gained.
Thirdly-It can be put into effect imme-
diately and thus restore confidence ana enable
business to be resumed.
The only objection that is likely TO be made
is that State banks might be less attractive
to depOsitoTs II national banks are guaranteed
but there are two answers to this objection
In the FIRST place State banks are likely to
suffer If this financial stringency continues
and they are therefore interested in restoring
confidence. In the second place there is
no reason why state banks should not be
protected by a similar system under which
the State would guarantee depOsitOrs In state
banks and collect the expenses from the
State banks guaranteed.
Mr. Bryan proposed when in Congress the
raising Of a guarantee fund for the protection
Of depOsitOrs. but the bill was defeated by
the larger banks on the ground that the big
banks would have no advantage over the
littlc ones II the depositOrs were secured, but
now that the big banks are suffering as much
AS the little ones the objection will hardly be
made.
The plan then proposed would furnish pro-
lection as far as the fund would furnish it,
hut IL would take time to raise such "A fund.
and II is better for the Government to make
the security absolute by becoming guarantOr,
for this system can be put into operation at
once and that. too. without expense to the
Government, inasmuch as the banks would
reimburse the Government from time to time
in case the Government was called upon to
pay the deposits of any failed bank.

Man with Her Dot Away-COnsents TO re
turn to children only Under Threat.
While Policeman Gillen OF the Greenpoint
avenue station, Brooklyn, was on a
crosstOwn car at Driggs avenue and South
Fourth street yesterday. afternoon he
saw a crowd around well dressed man
and woman who were in a tussle. The
woman was trying TO free herself from the
mans grip. Gillen got of the car. made
his way through the crowd and the man
ordered him to arrest the woman.
-She il my wife and l want her arrested
for deserting her four small children,
the man shouted, and then, pointing to a
man who was running away, he added:
That man is Joseph PetrO. "A barber.
and he eloped with my wife. Arrest him,
too"
The barber disappeared under the Will
iamsburg Bridge. Gillen decided to take
the man and woman to the Bedford avenue
station. The crowd followed. The man
said he was Frank Trachman OF West l52d
street and Amsterdam avenue, The Bronx.
"This is my wife. Fannie" Trachman
said, -and lived happily with her and
our four children until about a week ago.

HERE'S A CHARGE-DUELLING.


Two Gentlemen ef HonOr Went and Got
Gums, and lt's I'm the Penal COde.
Joseph Yancey. colored. of $50 West
FiStieth street, vas locked up in the West
Forty street station last night with
the charge Of duelling against his name.
This was the first charge of its kind to ap-
pear on the blotter of that station, but after
digging through the Penal Code the police
found that Joseph had fought duel within
the meaning Of section 234, and that il con-
victed he stood to serve a sentence Of not
more than ten years and to be disqualified
forever from holding civil or military Office
IN the Sta'e of New York.
Joseph Yancey and Henry Haskina, also
colored. whom the police did not catch,
did not know that they were going to fight
a duel when they Quarrelled over turkey
in a saloon on Forty ninth street last night
and agreed To go home and get their guns.
They called il fighting il OUT; at least
that in what Yancey said when no was
arrested,
"Haskins pulled a razor on me-" said
Joseph. "and told him didn't have mine
with me. but I'D go home and get my gun.
He said he'd go get his and we each went
with the other fellow while he got his gun.
Il was that fatal agreement which made
what happened in the hallway at $50 West
Fiftieth street a duel, according to the
Penal Code. But that was about all the
duel there was to it, even from the modern
French viewpoint. Yancey and Haskins
stood at opposite ends OF the hall and
blazed away at each other until each had
emptied his revolver. and neither one was
hit.
The policeman on post could not help
hearing the noise and he went and gathered
in Joseph. but Henry had fled the field of
honor by the time the policeman arrived.

The Administration Is prepared. so we are
informed to recommend "A postal savings

deposits ard while those deposits could in

furnish complete relief. The plan as pre-
sented limits deposits to $3.50 for one person

opening OF checking accounts. The business
