SECRET SERVICE
EXPENSES SHOWN
PRESIDENT TELLS THE SENATE
HOW THAT BIC WAR FUND
WAS SPENT.
MAKES ANSWER TO REQUEST
withholds some Names Which VIII
Be Furnished II Deemed
Necessary.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-President
Roosevelt today sent to the Senate a
response to Senator Foraker's resolu-
ton calling upon the Secretary Of the
Treasury for an itemized statement OF
expenditures from the $3,OOO00O war
deficiency fund. The reply reached the
Senate in the form of an executive
document. It purports to be a com
Dlete answer so far as the use OF the
war deficiency fund is concerned, but
some of the names of persons to whom
payments were made were withheld.
In a message, which was read in Sc
cret session. the President says that
if these names are desired he viii
furnish them to the Committee on Mil
itary Affairs.
While the Foraker resolution was
agreed to in executive session and the
reply thereto would ordinarily be sent
to the Senate in open session, no Sen
ator seemed inclined to take the re-
sponsibility of criticising President
Roosevelts course in keeping the IN
formation secret. Inasmuch as Mr..
Foraker is a member Of the Committee
Oh Military Affairs, he has the oppor-
unity of obtaining a statement in de-
t..I He was not present when the
eply of the President to his resolution
as received.
The Presidents letter and an item
led statement of expenditures from
he war deficiency fund was given into
the hands Of Secretary Bennett, VINO
viii retain it until it is called for By
the Committee c1 Military Affairs. Il
vas not examined by any member OIL
the Senate, and therefore it is not
known whether it contains any matter
other than expenditures for the pro-
duration of military information OF a
secret character and the
funds expended for the entertainment
of foreign observers at American mill
tary maneuvers.
From the reading of the Presidents
message, the impression prevailed that
all of the payments from this fund
we're for that character of work.
Senator Foraker introduced his. reso-
luton following the announcement
that the investigation of the Browns
Vile ARRAY by private detectives had
been paid for from this fund. The
Ohio Senator took the position that
such an expenditure was not war
ranted by the purposes for which the
emergency fund was intended
The precedent for President Roose-
yelts action in withholding certain
names OF. persons to whom payments
have been made is found in a response |
to a Senate resolution calling on the
late President Mckinley for the ac-
counts OF the treaty of Paris Commits
sion Mr.. Mckinley sent to the Sen
ate a statement Of all payments made,
out kept back the names Of a number
Of persons and some of the details |
with the expenditures, The
Senate realized thar such information
should not be made public and did not
press its demand for a strictly item
zed statement.

WITNESS FAIL
TO ANSWER CALL
CONFESSED NIGHT RIDERS NOT
ON HAND TO TESTIFY IN Ed
MARSHALL CASE.
WHEREABOUTS ARE UNKhOWN
Frank Fehrinser Says Defendant Was
In The Band That Murdered
Rankin.

UNION CITY, Tenn Jan. 22.-Ac-
cording to Frank Fehringer, self-con-
fessed night rider, who testified today
in the trial of Ed Marshall, charged
with participation in the lynching Of
Capt. Quentin Rankin while the de-
PENDANT was with the band at Walnut
Log, when the lynching occurred, he
tried TO dissuade the others from kill
ing Rankin.
Fehringer was one of the most i'm
portant of the States witnesses during
the previous trials, and frankly ad-
mitted the part he played in the kill
ing of Rankin and other raids of the
band. He declared he had frequently
seen Marshall on these occasions.
Fifteen witnesses have testified so
Ear in the present trial, but Fehringer
was the first to connect Marshall with
the murder The testimony of the
others was merely to show that band
of night riders existed and that they
killed Rankin because of his connec-
ton with the West Tennessee Land
Company.
When Ransom Slinkard, a State
witness, who made a confession i'm
plicating Marshall, was called today
he did not respond An attachment
was issued for him and it was learned
that he had left for parts unknown.
Charles G. Russell, another witness
who confessed, is also missing,
Ed Powell, who was on the stand
when court adjourned yesterday was
recalled and subjected to a severe
cross-examination, but he maintained
his original story.
Attorney General Caldwell is consid-
erably worse today, having spent
very bad night,
Col r. z. Taylor, the survivor of
the tragedy, positively identified
Frank Fehringer as a member Of the
band who killed Capt Rankin. This
statement of Col. Taylor corroborates
Fehringer's version of the murder,
When describing the murder of his
friend, the aged witness showed con-
siderable emotion, but recovered him
self in a few minutes and proceeded
with his story, which, in substance, is
as related in the first trial. He mar
rated the hardships that he under
went during the two days wandering
through the dense woods in making
his escape and telling the brutal MUIR
der of Capt. Rankin.
p. G. Ward proprietor of the hotel
at Walnut Log, told of seeing Capt.
Rankin and Col. Taylor taken from his
hotel by the night riders, and later
sitting up with the body of Rankin
until daylight, when it was conveyed
back to the hotel.
John White, a banker from Horn
beak, where it is believed the first
band of night riders were organized, |
tOld or going 10 JHe Dig Nooda last
summer and making a speech to a !
large number of masked men, urging |
them to disband He could not recog- |
nize any one at the meeting and could |
not even sa whether or not they were
real night iders Ransom Slinkard, |
who did not answer when his name
was called, is an important witness
against Marshall, by whom he was |
employed al one time.

WRITING PAPER USED
TO PROTECT SLEEVES

Now that long sleeves are once more
IN, women must resort to outer sleeves
as protection y they are working or
writing. This need is often filed by
sleeves Of folded handkerchiefs. but the
chief objection to them is that they re-
Quire too frequent washing.
Quickly made and convenient protec-
tors can be made from sheets Of stiff
writing paper, commercial size. Use
the paper crOsswise, fold back the two
lower corners about half the deptb of
the sheet and turn in the upper halves
and across the top to the depth OF an
inch. This gives Q firm surface TO hold
pins and the turned back corners enable

These paper cuffs can be used sew

Another convenient cuff is made from
white 0ilcloth These should be long
enough to reach to the elbow at the

NEEDED
FOR SHAPELY NAILS

A few fortunate people ere born with
fIbert-shaped nails; tut others must
acquire therl through cultivation and
maintain them through that eternal
vigilance which is the price Of daintily
tipped digits.
The nails, like the character, should
be shaped when one is young. All chill
dren should be taught to press the cuti-
Gle away from them when wiping the
hands, as that helps 10 develop the half
moons. If the moons do not show dis
tinctly, It is usually an indication that
the nails have not been properly attend
ed to and that the skin has not been
trained TO grow backward by so press
ing il whenever the hands are washed.
If the nails are rubbed daily with lemon
Juice il vii. discourage skin growth at
their base and also bleach them.
The work of pushing back the flesh is
slow, and time is required TO make any
appreciable difference in it. For this
purpose the fiat end Of me orange stick
should be used, being certain that 1t
has no sharp edges, for these may cut
into the flesh and produce swellings.
Immediately after clearing the super
1uous skin from the nails, cold cream
should be applied. each 1nger tip being
treated as soon as cleansed in order TO
Offset the effect OF the soaking. Fol-
lowing this, each tip should be separate
ly wiped, the cuticle being pressed back
to the nails base and a tiny drop of oil
put on il, that ii may not harden. Great
care should be exercised not to scratch
the nail enamel, as I lis may leave a
dshguring white mark on its seashell-
ike surface For this reason the skin
should be thoroughly softened before IL
IS worked.
