In his appearance before the Ways
and Means Committee. Andrew Car
negie advanced one idea that is likely
to give a good deal of trouble 20 the
opponents Of tariff revision before the
special session is concluded
Mr.. Carnegie constantly kept ham
mering on the fact that the Government
has NJ. business to be employing tariff
duties to help bolster up an inefficient
management. and that it Is Of the ut
most Importance TO encourage the de-
velopment OF the best possible methods
so that on even terms I'm other respects,
Americans can outstrip competitors.
Mr.. Carnegie made II clear that with
the tariff wiped out. the United States
Steel Corporation would hold the lead
in the markets OF the world because of
the advantage given through control .,
vast resources in this country, through
superior methods and through intellj-
gent management. along with the ad-
vantages offered through control Of
transportation lines.
It is going to prove extremely difficult
I'm the face of this testimony for the
independent companies and others who
are urgent in Upholding a tariff on steel
to defend il. Mr.. Carnegie's tes timony
is unquestionably going 10 be used as a
weapon by the Republican revisiOnists

A strange sight was presented to the people on Dexter Avenue at about b;So o'clock yesterday afternoon, when Dep uties McCor6 and Pettus engaged in handicap ziKzag race with Alberto Bruce. alias Alberto Brewington, me- gro
 The event occurred as the result of a rapid raid upon "crap" game in a barroom on Bainbrfdge Street. in which raid Deputies H. H. McCord. Bill Hall, Claude Mckee and Frank Pettus participated. The deputies had arrested i've negroes. who were caught in the act of indulging in the danger ous pastime-New Howard. Jim Bell. Boisy Gilmer.

REPORT IS DENIED
FRINGE HELIE AND MADAME GOULD
 NOT MARRIED.
It ts Understeod That the Gould Fam- fly Has Agreed Not To Invoke Clause in Her Fathers
 yyfIl

Paris, May 22-The report that there was a secret marriage between Prince Helie de Sagan and Madame Gould at Hoboken, on the eve of their departure from America, is discredited here.
 The Prince categorically denied this before going to Italy to join Madame Gould: and since the arrival of the cou- pie in Paris. their sole purpose appar- ently has been directed to clearing the way for a speedy wedding. They have been in consultation with their attor- neys and throughout the past week there has been an extensive exchange O. cables with New York.
 Madame Gould has made clear her determination to marry the man of her CT oIce. and in view of her unfiinching attitude. 1t Is understood that the fam fly has agreed not to invoke the clause In her fathers will cutting off a half share in the estate in the case of any of the children marrying without the executors consent What other ar- guments may have been employed are unknown, but this obstacle is now TO- garded as having been removed. and the marriage may be expected to take rlace within a fortnight.
 Another threatened complication Count Bonis avowed purpose to ask the court to deprive Madame Gould Of the custody of her children in case she married Prince Helie. will be Gisre- garded Madame Gould feels confident that her record as a devoted mother would deter any court iron: ordering such a cruel separation and apparent, ly she Is prepared 10 see Count Boni do his worst in the way of reviving the scandal in his effort to blacken the Princes reputation. Her friends say she Is displaying in this matter the iron will for which her father was famous.
 It is understood that Count Boni, re alizing that the court would not grant him the custody of his children. will ask that their grandmother. the Mar quise de Castellane, be appointed their guardian
 In some quarters. Count Boni's irre- conciliable attitude is attributed to desire to force a financial compromise. Since his divorce. his resources have been at the lowest ebb and practically he has been living as his successful rival did few years ago. Indeed, the cousins, so far as fortune and prospect are concerned. seem to have changed nlaces

 Into front halls. through back doors. across yards. and over fences like a moving picture escapade. the chase un- folded itself. From one side of the street to the other. the scene shifted until finally near the corner of Hull Street and Dexter Avenue through a bit of strategic hanking on his part. Deputy Pettus, by a magnificent spurt grasped the nearest portion of the al- most evanescent negro.
 struggle then ensued and Deputv Pettus was compelled to strike Bruce with the butt of his revolver, before he could be prevailed upon to yield submission to his captors. At length. however, he discarded all resistance. and sadly and wearily. the three de- scended toward the jail. The two deputies declare that they ran a mile in four blocks. They believe that they climbed about a quarter of a mile # fances. They are sure that the ther- mometers are all incorrect if they re- corded the temperature at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon as less than 150 degrees in the shade.

Work is Progressing Rspsdix sna All
 cratic Convention in


 Denver. Colo, May 23.--Juns eth. the contraotors employed on the new Dem yer Auditorium, where the Democratic National Convention is to be held July |. will walk out of the building With their work complete
 It win take a week or more to clean up and arrange the seats, and then the big convention hall win be ready for the public. .
 The construction work is now going on rapidly. One force of employees Is just completing the plastering. There is only one section of the ceiling left undone, and this will be completed by Monday night. All water connections are made and a part of the plumbing Is now in working order. The con tractor has promised that the last water pipe will be connected and in opera tion by May 25.
 The roof is almost finished. If 1t is not completed by Saturday night there will not be more than a days work left. The electric wiring of the build ing is keeping pace with the plaster CTS. The floors in the main auditorium are complete and the floors of the base, ment and ante-rooms will be finished in another week. The stairs. doors and entrances will be the last to be fn- ished, but by a week from Saturday night. they should be very near in working shape.
 The galleries are about finished now and the seating Is being arranged. The boxes will not be ready before Thurs day and hustiing to finish the base nent. The domes of the exterior will probably require another week for com pletion, but while the outside of the building is being finished. workmen will clean away the remaining debris
 Today full force of men is endeav- bring to get the wings and moving floors connected with the machinery which handles them. This will require possibly seven days, but when once finished the hall can easily be made in to a splendid theatre seating 14o0O persons. The machinery is already practically in place for hoisting and moving. All of the necessary material for the finishing is now on hand, save the seats. and these are arriving daily by consignments. At the outside cal culation. the, completion of the audi torium will beat the date of the Denn- ocratic convention by at least twenty days.
