SCORES C~ORTELYOU
CULBERSON CHARGES SPECULAT-
ING BANKS WE'RE AIDED.
Declares That Walt Street Financiers
Received More Than Their
Just Share.

Washington, D. C.-Senator Gull
berson of Texas, Democratic leader in
the senate, charged on the floor of the
senate Thursday that Secretary OF the
Treasury Cortelyou had violated the
law in six respects in his handling OF
the finances during the panic.
He demanded that the secretary be
! called on to farnish the senate with
all correspondence between his office
and the New York banks that would
| show whether he had supplied funds
to the New York banks only for relief
through them of the Western and
| Southern bankers, or for use in spec
ulation.
Secretary Cortelyou. according to
| Mr.. Culberson, violated the law by
| depositing money in New York banks
for speculative purposes, giving them
a greater share of the funds than
their combined capital permitted.
New York Banks got One-Third.
With only one-sixth the total capital
of all the banks in the country the
New York banks got one-third of all
the public moneys between August
and December, said Mr.. Culberson.
Mr.. Culberson said that Secretary
| Cortelyou had also broken the law by
issuing the Panama bonds when they
were not needed for canal expenses
by excluding private bidders and &C
| cepting only national bank bidders for
the bonds for other than canal ex-
penses, by issuing 3 per cent ceTtifi-
| Gates when they were not needed to
meet government expenses, and by al
lowing banks to issue notes on these
bonds.

COMMISSION NOT EEcEssARY.
Recommendations from Hospital Az.
thorities May Free TiiaW.

MatteaWan, N. Y.-Doctor Lamb,
superintendent OF the state hos
pital for the criminal insane, said
Thursday that, after 80 days or so,
if it is his belief that Harry X. Thaw
is sane, it will be within the province
of the hospital authorities to so GER
tify to the court and recommend his
release. A commission in lunacy or
other proceedings would not be neces-
sary, he declared.
The physicians at the institution are
not making observations Of Thaw as
yet, as they feel that he has not re-
covered from the excitement caused
by his recent trial for the murder of
Stanford White. He is considered a
model prisoner by the physicians and
on account of his good behavior has
been allowed certain special privi-
leges.
