a minister who is satisfied with very
little. His appetite is small.

SAY HUMMEL GOT
MILLION As MORSE
DODGE SACRIFICE
For Turning Over Letters Vital
to Former ''Ice King" in
Sensational Suit.
ALLEGED RICH RANSOM
INVOLVES BIG LAWYERS
Story Is That Ex-Convict Law
yer Was Paid to Be
the Goat"
Especial to the Evening star.l

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-That Abra-
ham Hummel, the disbarred lawyer.
now enjoying a luxurious tour abroad,
got $1,000 0 for going to Blackwelrs
Island and wearing a convict's stripes,
Is the startling assertion made today
in connection with the $4,000 suit
brought against Charles w. Morse, the
Jailed former ice King" by Edward
M. Bracken, his confidential man, for
services rendered.
The story is that Hummel got this
immense sum of money for giving up
letters in the Dodge-Morse scandal,
which Morse had written Hummel,
thus becoming the ~f1nancier's richly re-
warded scapegoat In a deal in which
four famous lawyers acted for Morse.
Most Of the letters were signed
"Wyman," the name under which
Morse did his business with Hummel,
30 Bracken says.
The alleged deal was contaminated
when criminal proceedings were begun
against Hummel, and Morse recovered
the letters In the Metropolitan Club, 1t
Is said. Only their return saved Morse
from conviction, and Hummei was the
sacrifice.
One of the four Morse lawyers who
figured in the reported bargain with
Hummel is said to be an ex-district
attorney of New York.
Some Of the letters Morse wanted to
recover were not delivered to him, and
their production would cause a sensa-
lion and perhaps reopen the Dodge
Morse case with amazing disclosures.
