In Message to House on
Secret Service
Bureau.

WASHINGTON. D. c., JAM. A.
President Roosevelt's expected spe-
cial message on the secret service
was sent to the house today. 1t
denies the statement made in the
house resolution of inquiry that
he had charged any member of the
present congress with corruption
or that the majority of congress
men were in fear of investigation
by detectives. He gives the names
of former senators and representa-
tives convicted In connection with
land frauds, and reiterates the dec
laration made in his annual mes
sage that the limitation placed by
congress ON the operations of the
secret service could be of benefit
only to the criminal class.
OF the work done by the secret
service, the president refers to the
land, naturalization, lottery, silk,
opium, ink and other frauds. He
recommends that all the govern
ment detective services be consoli-
dated into a single bureau, to be
attached to the department of JUS
tice and that Chief Wilkes salary
be increased from $4,000 to $4,000
a year.
He denies strenuously the allega-
ton made in certain quarters that
he ever used the secret service In
purely private or political matters.
Incidentally, he charges that
agitation against the secret service
was begun with an article written
by l.. w. Busbey, private secretary
to Speaker Cannon, for Chicago
newspaper.
Altogether the. president pre-
sents a strong though calm argu-
ment that he was exactly right In
making the criticisms that enliven-
ed his message at the opening of
the session.

KIDNAPS CHILD AND
LANDS IN JAIL

After kidnapping his 10 months
old baby boy from the child's
grand parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Immel, 916 Second avenue,
A. c. Jones escaped from the city
pending the grind of the wheels
of the law and was not captured
till he reached Yardley. From
there he was returned with his
infant son to Spokane by Special
Agent Joel Hindman of the North
ern Pacific.
Mrs. Jones came with her baby
to live with her parents a few
weeks ago because Jones was too
cruel to herself and child, it is
alleged. Jones, who claims to be
a Chicago detective, came across
Mr.. and Mrs. Immel as they were
wheeling his child down the
street yesterday afternoon and
snatched the babe from the car
riage. He was captured a few
blocks away by the police and
taken with the Immels to the po-
lice station. The Immels and
Jones were booked on charges of
disorderly conduct but were re-
leased on bonds of $25.
The police could do little with
the case and writ of habeas cor
pus was gotten out before Judge
Hinkle. but Jones is now in GUS
tody of the county authorities.

gress a. q whole was actuated by
TINT motive
In supHs-t of his statement that
the chic, argument in favor OF the
mQyemeal to restrict the secret
service Was alleged fear of some
members that they might be in
vestigated, the president refers the
house to the report of the debate
last May on that subject, as given
in the Congressional Record: He
says. responsibility for the action
taken by the house rested on the
committee on appropriations, un-
der the leadership of Chairman
Tawney Republican, Minnesota),
Smith, Republican. Iowa., Sherley
democrat, Kentucky and Fitz-
gerald democrat. New York;.
Theh beginning of this agitation,
the president says, was a 5000
word letter sent to the Chicago
Inter Ocean in 1904 by l.. w. Bus
bey private secretary to Speaker
Cannon. At the time this letter
sssailing the secret service was
published, President Roosevelt
points out, these government de-
tectives were working on the great
land frauds In the west and aid
ing In the beef trust investigation
But all of this" continues the
presidents message. lis of insig-
nificant Importance compared with
the main, the real issue. This is
sue is simply, Does congress de-
sire that the government shall
have at its disposal the most eff
ficient instrument for the detection
of criminals and the prevention and
punishment of crime. or does it
not. The action of the house last
May was emphatically an action
against the interest of justice and
against the interest of law abiding
people, and in its effect of benefit
only to lawhreakers. Is the house
now willing to remedy the wrong?
The president quotes from a let
ter he sent to Speaker Cannon
April 80, protesting against inter
ference with the secret service, In
which he said: There is no more
foolish cutlery than this against
spies; only criminals need fear
our detectives"

S|NCES STATE
|NH0RTONCASE
JUDGE PolNDExrER ASKS TO
DISMISS PROCEEDINGS.

Probably the longest motion
ever filed in the superior court
was made by Judge Miles Poindex-
ter this morning in the case Of
Charles E. Horton, charged with
the embezzlement of $6S.4O of the
labor and material funds of the
city water collection department.
The state had just rested it's
case. and Judge Poindexter arose
and moved the court to dismiss
Horton on the ground of the in
sufficiency of the evidence present
ed against him. In stating his mo-
ton, Judge Poindexter read from
a penciled memorandum, in which
he reviewed the chief evidence in
troduced by the state, and pointed
out where in his opinion 1t fell
short of being sufficient to convict
Horton.
Nearly one hour and half was
consumed in the presentation Of
the motion proper to the court.
After stating the motion, Judge
Poindexter then begun his argu-
ment on 1t from legal stand
point. which was still in progress
after the reconvening of court this
afternoon.
City Treasurer M. II. Eggleston
was recalled by the state this
morning, and asked as to the@ set
Element made with c. E. Horton.
He said Horton turned over three
city water extension warrants of
$500 each, savings account OF over
$500 belonging to his wife and a
salary check. totalling over $4,000.
On cross examination. Eggleston
said that Horton denied taking
any city money, but put up the
settlement to protect the bonding
company during the further inves-
tigation of the shortage.
In his plea for the dismissal of
Horton. Judge Poindexter said
that the state, in its opening state
ment. had outlined certain
theory of the case which they said
they would prove; that in working
to establish their theory, the court
admitted a lot of testimony as to
the bull sack" and certain other
shortages charged to Horton: that
the state has failed to make its
case as relates to the S6s.40 item
on which the defendant Is on trial,
and hence all the evidence as per-
tanning to the bull sack" and
other shortages doe snot belong in
the case and ought to be stricken
from the record.
Continuing, counsel for Horton
said that the evidence does not
show that the money specified in
the information ever came into
Horizons hands, that the cash ac-
count on the date of the alleged
shortage was made out by Charles
u. Sheldon, Horizons assistant. and
there is no evidence to show that
Horton handled the money at the
