Responsibility He Is Taking In
Attacking Member of Su-
preme Court Bench.

New York, Oct. 12.-Before an enorA
nous audience at the Hearst meeting
in Carnegie hall William NJ. WINS, one
of the foremost members of the New
York bar, assailed the judicial integ.
rity Of Justice William ]. Gaynor Of
the supreme court, accusing him Of
misconduct on the bench. Mr.. Ivina
made the following charges:
That Justice Gaynor conspired with
Senator McCarren and Eugene Wood,
representing racing interests, to nullify
the antigambling law.
That Justice Gaynor met McCarren
and Wood in the Hoffman House on
June II, 1908, Immediately after the
passage of the bill by the legislature,
and conferred with them until o'clock
In the morning.
That Justice Gaynor told them the
law was unconstitutional.
That the racing and gambling inter-
ests attempted to frame up q test case
to bring before Justice Gaynor.
That Assistant District Attorney FL
der Of Brooklyn fought the attempt
That test case finally was got be-
fore Justice Gaynor. but instead of re-
lating to race track gambling 1t in
volved merely the betting Of box Of
golf balls on golf match.
That Justice Gaynor wrote an opin
ion in this case defining what consti-
tutes a common gambler which will,
if it stands, insure the acquittal Of all
the men arrested for race track gam
bling.
That Charles II. Hyde, who was
Justice Gaynor's law partner, is broth
er-in-law of William Engemann, pres
ident of the Brighton Beach track, and
ali three are personal friends.
That the Commercial Trust compa-
ny, the president of which is Robert
Il. Moore. Tammany candidate for

which is seeking subway contracts.
That Moore is Gaynor's friend and
selection for office, while Gaffney Is
partner of Boss Murphy. In addition.
the companys counsel is Mirabeau l..
Towns. who also is counsel to Justice
GaynOr.
In making these astonishing charges
Mr.. WINS said:
81 know the responsibility I am TAX
ing. l know the man is still on the
bench, and am inclined to believe he
will have the cowardice to decline this
nomination at the last moment and re-
main on the bench. In that case he
will have opportunity to discipline me

MORSE IN TONBS
Must Stay In Jail Forty
Days Pending Appeal.
DECLARES HE STILL HAS HOPE.
If United States Supreme Court
Does Not Release Him Presi-
dent Taft Will Be Asked
For Pardon.

New York, Oct. 12. - Charles w.
Morse is again in the same cell in the
Tombs which he occupied for five
months last winter, the United States
court Of appeals having by unani.
nous decision denied him a new trial
and committed him to serve fifteen
years in the federal prison at Atlanta,
Ga, for fraud on the National Bank
of North America, Of which he was
vice president.
The judges on application Of Morse's
counsel granted stay for forty days
pending petition to the supreme
court of the United States. Morse,
however, was committed without bail.
The convicted banker at once surren-
dered and was driven to the Tombs
There he was put in the same cell he
had occupied after his conviction last
November. His cell is 712 on the fifth
tier, the section devoted to federal
prisoners. His son Den ran up a few
minutes later and was at once admit
ted.
Mr.. Littleton said he would soon ask
the court to admit Morse to bail pend
ing the stay of forty days. The appli
cation will probably be denied. Dis.

trict Attorney Wise said it was against
the practice and that he would oppose
it.
AS TO whether or not the supreme
court will grant writ of certiorari, it
was stated yesterday that not more
than between 10 and Is per cent of
the applications for writs of certiorari
are granted. Cases in which they are
granted, it was said, must be of great
public Importance, or they must in
volve an Interpretation of statute or
they may be cases in which two cir
cult courts of appeals have held differ
emily.
Morse said: 81 have by no means
lost hope. l consider there is a strong
probability that the highest court will
decide in my favor"
1t was said at Mr.. Littleton's office
that many bankers and financiers had
offered to sign a petition to President
Taft for a pardon for Mr.. Morse and
that such action would be taken in
the event that the highest court de-
cided against Morse.
Although Morse kept his nerve well
in the face of the serious setback to
his case, his wife, who was with him
when the. decision was rendered, broke
down and became hysterical.
While her husband was in the mar
shal's office Mrs. Morse, who had been
with him all day, came to the door,
leaning on the arm of her stepson,
Harry Morse. Her face was swollen
with tears, and her voice was so chok-
ed that she could hardly speak. New
ertheless she made a brave effort.
This was terrible blow to us ALL"
she began. 1--WE felt certain that Mr
Morse would get new trial, and the
decision came like thunderbolt In our
faces. But we have been reading the
decision over together, and we all be-
lieve that the supreme court will not
agree with its findings.
I'VE have great confidence in Mr.
Littleton and know that he will do all
that can be done for my husband. Mr.
Morse took this blow as he has taken
all the others that have come 80 him
like brave, manly man."

ly that she could go no further.

Rev. Archibald Black.
New York, Oct. 12.-The New York
presbytery refused by the rather close
vote of 40 to 33 to postpone until after
the meeting of the synod the ordina-
tion of the Rev. Archibald Black as
pastor of the Bedford Park Presbyte-
rian church.
The sixteen clergymen who request

ical seminary graduate is a hereto
will carry their fight to the synod.
Two protests, each signed by the
sixteen, We're read at the meeting. The
first document repeated the earlier
declaration of the signers that the
presbytery had erred in licensing Mr..
Black to preach. The second protest
put the case even more strongly and

HURRICANE s FURY
Haif of City of Key West
Laid In Ruins.
DAMAGE AT LEAST $3,OOO,OOO
State Troops Patrol Streets to Pre-.
vent Looting-Many Houses and
Factories Blown Down.
Many Lives Lost.

Key West, Fla, Oct 12-This city is
a mass Of wreckage as result Of a
West India hurricane which rushed up
from the gulf. At least one-half Of the
island city is in ruins, the property loss
being estimated as at least $3,0O0000.
The city is in utter darkness owing
to the disablement of the electric light
plant, and the state troops are patrol
ling the streets in order to prevent
looting. The city officers have asked
the United States to allow the regular
troops to be used as guards until order
is restored.
It is probable that many lives have
been lost, but as many wires are down
details are lacking. The property loss
is appalling. Over ten Of the largest
cigar factories are in ruins, among
them the Havana, American, Martinez
and Ruy Lopez. Scores of horses were
killed, and their bodies cumber the
streets.
Several bank buildings were partial
ly wrecked, the First National being
among them. Terrible havoc was
wrought on the shipping in the har-
bor There were over n hundred ves-
sells at anchor OF these only few are
left, the others being driven out to sea
or being cast on the beach.
The storm struck the city with full
force and ragged for eight hours. AT
times the wind blew eighty miles an
hour. The storm passed up the east
coast, and 1t is feared that the loss of
life has been great in that section.
There were many men working on
the Flagler east coast extension across
the Florida keys, and it is feared that
many Of them have been killed.
Besides the several score of resi-
dences either totally wrecked or blown
from their pillars nine large cigar fac.
tories were destroyed. The engine
houses Of the city fire department
were destroyed, the firemen narrowly
escaping, but several of the horses be-
ing killed. The top of the First Ma
tional bank was blown off, the post
office damaged, and buildings in the
government coaling stations were
wrecked.

LIBEL SUIT "POLITICAL."
Federal Judge So Remarks at Hearing
In Panama Canal Case,


In Panama Canal Case.
Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 12.-That the
so called Panama libel case was more
or less of political natter was the
comment of Judge A. B. Anderson Of
the United States court of this dis
trict at the close of argument in the
hearing of Charles r. Williams and
Delevan Smith, proprietors of the In
dial lpolis News, whom the govern
ment is seeking to remove to the Dis
trtct Of Columbia for trial on the
charge of criminal libel.
The judge said he wished not to give
an impression that he had formed an
opinion on the merits of the case, but
that he wished to point out the trend
of the argument as to whether or not
this was probable cause for indictment
of Williams and Smith by the federal
grand jury Of the District Of Column
bia for criminal libel in their having
published articles intimating that there
was a graft of $2S,O00,O00 in the sale
of the Panama canal zone to the Unit
ed States by the French company.

CYCLONE HAVOC IN CUBA.
Eleven Persons Killed and More Than
100000 Damage Done.


Havana, Oct. 1.-THE most serious
cyclone since the big blow three years
ago struck Cuba, causing extensive
devastation through the whole west
ern portion of the island. In the city
of Havana many minor buildings were
blown down or unroofed. Almost all
the trees We're uprooted. Eleven per-
sons were killed by falling buildings.
About fifty persons We're injured.
The greatest damage done was in
the harbOr, where more than fifty
lighters, launches and small tugs were
either sunk or blown ashore.
The total damage in Havana and vi
cinity is estimated at more than ST.
100000. The greatest individual loss
has been caused by the destruction of
half the coal elevator conveyors of
the Havana Coal company at Casa
blanca, estimated at 100000.
Communications with the interior of
the island have been interrupted eX-
cept with parts of Havana and Pinar
del Rio provinces, in which the orange
and other fruit crops suffered severe
ly.
Following heavy rains, the gale rap,
idly increased in intensity and reach.
ed cyclonic proportions, the velocity
of the wind being about 120 miles an
hour. The storm continued with un
abated fury for six hours, after which
the rain was intermittent, with occa
sional heavy squalls.
All business was suspended, and
trolley traffic ceased in consequence
of the government ordering the cut
ting Off Of all electric power to avoid
danger to life. Most of the govern
ment departments also were closed.

LeqS of Murdered Woman
/. Severed With Saw.
SEARCH FOR REST OF HER BODY
Rural Mail Carrier Makes Discov-
cry on Automobile Road Near
New Bedford-Swamps to
Be Dragged.

Tiverton, r. l., Oct. 12.-The finding
of the severed legs Of a woman in a
dress suit case among some bushes In
an outlying section Of this town this
afternoon brought to light what the
authorities are convinced Is q case of
murder.
The discovery Of a New Bedford
newspaper of recent date with the
portions Of the limbs in the suit case
is regarded as the most important clew
thus far obtained, indicating possibly
the place Of the murder The authori-
ties are of the opinion that the wo-
man was murdered In New Bedford;
that the legs were placed in the suit
case there and brought by team or au-
tomobile to Tiverton.
According to the medical examiner,
DR.. John Stimson of Tiverton, the
murder was committed not more than
twelve or fifteen hours before the suit
case with its ghastly contents was
discovered. That murder was COM
mitted and that the cutting was not
done by the experienced hands of a
surgeon or by q medical student is
the verdict of the medical examiner,
who says that common hand saw
was used to sever the legs from the
trunk
The search for the other portions Of
the body in the woods near the place
where the suit case was found was
continued by the police and citizens.
Should the search still be fruitless,
swamps in the neighborhood will be
dragged.
The spot where the suit case was
found is about twenty feet from the
edge Of the BulgerI2arsh road at a
point between 200 and 300 yards from
Bliss Four Corners, in this town. 1t
is about eight miles from New Bed
ford. Bulgermarsh road is much used
by automobile parties.
The locality was apparently well
suited for concealing the evidences of
crime, and, according to people liv-
ing in the neighborhood, the body
might have lain there for days undis-
covered had not a rural letter carrier,
George Potter, chanced to go to the
spot. Potter was making his rounds,
passing along the road, when he no
ticed little path leading from the
highway into the bushes.
He turned off momentarily to 60 a
short distance up the path and had
scarcely gone three PAGES from the
highway when he came upon the suit
case. Only one-half of the case was
there, the cover being missing, and
exposed to the letter carriers hOrri-
fed view were three portions of hui
man legs partly wrapped in newspa.
per-
| The medical examiner found that the
leg was twenty-siX inches in length
and that the foot was about the size
for No. 3 shoe, and he estimated
from these facts that the woman (ol
girD was probably five feet three in
height and would weigh perhaps 12C
pounds.
Several portions of the New Bedford
Sunday Standard lay loose near the
suit case, and one portion was loosely
wrapped about section of leg. The
leg pieces We're not all in the suit
case, one lying near by. another part
ly resting on the side of the case and
the third within it. There were NJ
initials on the case and no mark OF
any kind by which it's ownership could
be traced. The material of the case
is strawboard covered with heavy
cloth.
