HARTMAN DOES A
LITTLE CRAWFlSHiNG.

New York, Apr. 4.-E. H. Hartman
today made tae following statement
relative to the recent exchange of cor
respondence between President Roose
welt and himself: 81 do not intend to
continue this controversy. Everybody
knows that the contest for the se1a-
torship in 1904 was between Messrs.
Black and Depew, and there could not
possibly be any other candidate. There
was no bargain whereby money was
to be raised IN consideration of hav-
ing Depew appointed ambassador to
France or made U. S. Senator. and
my letter to Webster does not so
state That part of the agreement was
for the purpose of harmonizing the
Black-Depew forces if it became nee
essaTy."

FIRE ALARM ON WINDY
DAY EXCITES PEOPLE.

The fire bell sounded at $50 t.lis
morning and in consideration of the
fact that the worst wind storm of the
spring was in full blast, the alarm
caused more than ordinary excite
ment. 1t was found that the fence at
the rear of Nathan Jaffa's residence
on South Richardson avenue was
af1re, set ablaze from Goals that had
been smoulderilg in trash fire ligh-
ted three days ago and had been fan
ned into life by the wind The fire
was soon put out without much trou-
BILE.
The fire company made a splen-
did record in running to the fire, in
spite of the many jibes that were Civ
en- the boys by various people. 1t was
lust four minutes from the time the
bell sounded to the time that water
was running on the fire Many peo-
ple do not stop to consider what has
TO be done in getting the fire depart
ment in action. The alarm is sent
N. The bell is rung Immediately and
he teams are being hitcAed while the
nl7nteers are assembling from the
arto"S stores and shops where they
are regularly employed Wnen the
bell has been rung many people begin
70 inquire where the fire is and make
such remarks as: why don't the fire
the fire wagon to the fire myself" and
other such remarks, that are discour-
aging to the fire boys who are doing
the very best they can to save loss.
Of course in such times two or three
minutes seems an age to an excited
people and their remarks are to be ta-
ken with a whole lot of salt on such
occasions. This mornings fire was
10 exception, SO far as the remarks
were concerned, and the run was ex-
ira fine.
A fire department, like a city coun-
Gil is always used as a public football
for all kinds of kicks and knocks. and
the boys would pay no attention to
the knockers and go ahead doing their
duty as best they can. Their labors
will be appreciated by the thinking
class of people and the people who
pay the freight.
A Second Fire Alarm.
The fire department was called out
at 1880 this afternoon, to put out
blaze in the haystack of Richard Phil
lips, on the extreme west end of 5th
street 1t is supposed that lighted
match was thrown in the hay. The
damage was slight

| New York, Apr. 4. 1902 p. m).-
J (Bulletia.) Thaw is sane.
The finding of the Thaw 1unacy
commission was couched in the Ian
guage used by Justice Fitzgerald in
| ordering the inquiry. The commission.
ers declare it to be their unanimous
belief THAT the defendant, Harry K.
Thaw, is capable of rightly under
standing his own position, of appre-
ciating the nature of the charges ag-
ainst him and of nationally colferring
with his counsel at the time of his
examination. The entire report of the
commission covers three typewriter
pages, ald will not be made public.
District Attorney Jerome said that if
the court ruled against his applica-
ton for access to the minutes of the
Thaw commission in lunacy, he
would ask time to decide whether he
would apply to the appellate division
for a writ of prohibition to prevent
the trial proceeding. Justice Fitzger-
aid discharged the jury until Mon
day, declining to grant more time for
Jerome to apply to the appellate di-
vision for a writ of prohibition.
New York, Apr. 4.-When Justice
Fitzgerald called the Thaw jury into
COuII dI IL ou lOudH. lIlc
il lunacy appointed to inquire into
the present condition of the defend
ant had not been able to agree on a
verdict. The jury was excused until
two o'clock. by which time Justice
Fitzgerald said he hoped tnat he
would have something definite before
him. The commission sat until two
o'clock this morning trying to agree
upon a report, but failed. 1t went into
session again in Justice Fitzgerald's
chamber at 1O:3O today. Justice Fitz-
gerald is very anxious to have a u1an
imous report from the commission one
way or the other, and it was for this
reason that he decided to give them
more time.
Following the adjournment of the
court, Justice Fitzgerald again went
into conference with the three luna
cy commissioners. In less than Is
minutes DR.. Putzel, of the commission
left the chamber alone. He walked out
of the criminal courts building brisk
ly and with an air of filality. His ac-
ton in Withdrawing from the confer
ence gave rise to the report that he
had submitted a minority report and
that he was unwilling to change his
views in any way. Putzel declined to
discuss the matter. He said that his
port declared that while Thaw was
apparently able to consult with his
counsel in fairly rational manner, this
did not indicate that he was mentally
sound in every way The majority re-
port, it is said, declares that Thaw
is sane. 1t was said in the District
Attorneys Office today that Justice
Fitzgerald has a right to accept eth
er the majority or minority report as
his conscience dictates. There is prec-
edent, it was added, for acceptance
of the minority report from the COM
mission in lunacy; 1t was reported
that Fitzgerald adjourned court in
order to consult authorities as to
which report, if either, he should &C
cept under the. circumstances.
Messrs. Olney aid Mcclure, of the
commission remained with Fitzgerald
for more than an hour and nalf af-
ter Putzel withdrew. They babe Fftz-
gerald goodbye with the understand
ing that their connection with the
case had ended.

Russia's Ouickstep.

From reading of Russia's backward
uess as a nation. in the crisis of war
we turn to reports Of the doings OF the
new national assembly and the
speeches Of local leaders who talk "a
though they had been discussing the
problems of the present hour all their
lives. 1t is plain that we are now get
ting at the real Russia and may have
to recast our notions of the great Mus
covite race and its destiny. For gem
erations the Russian government has
been chasing the rainbow Of territorial
expansion and letting home develop
ment 60 it's own gait so long as 1t
didn't make trouble for the autOcracy.
Had the national policy of Russia dur.
Ing the whole of the nineteenth cen.
fury or even for the half century since
the emancipatio of the serfs been
similar to that of the United States
namely. the education and political ad.
vancement Of the masses and the up
building of the European provinces on
truly great lines as natiOn-she
might have been the master Of all
Asia without having to strike blow.
The new life given to the Russian
people by the shifting Of activities
from the far east to the home country
and the effacement of repressive ar-
tocracy should lead to developments Of
Industrial resources that will place the
state in the forefront of commercial
powers. In natural resources Russia
has no rival. Her soil is remarkably
fertile, and four-fifths of her people
are farmers. She has vast grazing
lands and can live on her home prod
ucts, while in mineral wealth she Is
one of the richest In the world. I'm
der the higher standard Of social and
political institutions to which the peo-
pie have suddenly risen there can be
no limit to her greatness and should be
none or next to none to her progress.
1t may be true that the Russian mujik
Is not yet fit for full liberty. But the
events of the past two years show that
the organized local forces have strong
leaders and are good followers. All
that was lacking was a chance for the
right men to get together and stand
together The hour has come. Russia
has the form of liberty at last. Some
day. and that no distant one, she will
have the reality.

The joint resolutions which will be

Resolutions in regard to harmony of

Resolved: That in view of the vast
Industrial, commercial and political
benefits sure to accrue to the Pacific
coast by the opening Of the Columbia
and Snake rivers to continuous steam
boat navigation at all seasons of the
year and of the itay Importance of
union and harmony of the three states
of Oregon, Washington and Idaho both
at home and in their congressional
delegations. Therefore, be it resolved,
that representations be made by the
legislature of Washington to the legis-
latureS or oregon ana Idaho to the
end of such united action and that
this body invite others to join in giving
instructions to the congressional dele
cations of the three states to conduct
an active campaign before the river
and harbOr committees and the appro-
priations committee of congress give
the river improvement first place and
in every way possible to further the
great work of opening these rivers:
Resolved, that a committee of three
in the house to be appointed to join
a similar committee of three in
the senate to confer with the legis-
latures of Oregon and Idaho to unite
in such instructions to the congress-
ional delegations and also to unite
with the other states in a systematic
effort to secure from Congress the COM
mercial relief which will be given
from the open rivers.
