SCHOOL MISTRESSES TOUR
EUROPE WITH POLICEMAN
officer Who Played Hero in Robbery
Is Being Rewarded by New
Jersey Trio

LONDON. June 2.-Three American
school mistresses arrived from New
York a few days since with police
man. The policeman was not bringing
them over; they were bringing him,
to demonstrate in an entirely novel
way their gratitude for an act OF
bravery.
Some time ago the teachers, Misses
Emma, Lillian and Mary James, were
awakened by the sound Of burglars at
work in their seminary for young Wo-
men at Trenton. N. j. They found
two men had broken in and had col
lected all their valuables, so they
screamed for help.
Then Constable Hamilton Crisp
earned the laurels Of heroism and a
tour through Europe. He broke open a
window and attacked the two burglars,
The cries of the three school mistresses
spurred him on so effectively that after
tough struggle he captured the two
men, though he was severely injured
in the fight.
The grateful teachers, as soon as he
was we'll, asked the authorities to give
him two months leave, and they are
going to show him around Europe as
q reward for his bravery.
The quartet will go to Stratford on
Avon, Paris, Germany, and probably
Switzerland. Crisp, who is we'll
educated hero, aspires later on to enter
a higher pursuit of the law than that
of mere policeman.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 2.-Prominent
financiers, politicians and government
officials must testify in the criminal
libel case of the government against
Delavan Smith and Charles r. Will
liams, owners of the Indianapolis News
Judge Anderson today continued till
October II the hearing of the case
growing out of the publication of the
Panama graft charges
This was done on the government 6
contention that such delay was neceS-
sary in order that the witnesses might
be heard.
Those whose testimony is sought in
clude Frank NJ. Hitchcock, former
chairman of the Republican nationa
committee; Norman e. Mack chairman
Of the Democratic national committee
George b. Cortelyou, certain members
of the office staff of J. p. Morgan q
Co. and various government officials.
Objections to Delay
The defense protested against a con-
tinuance, saying the government should
have been prepared TO submit its evil
dence. and the court at first seemed 10
approve. On a statement of the gov
eminent counsel, however, as to what
it was expected to prove by the new
witnesses the court decided to hear the
further evidence.
District Attorney Mcnamara said he
would prove by Messrs. Hitchcock and
Mack that they had made public an
nouncements that the Panama story
offered to both of them was a fake,
originated by blackmailers who at
first hoped to get money from William
Nelson Cromwell but failed.
The story was published in the New
York World and the same paper on
October 3 printed Mr.. Cromwell's de-
NAL. Mr.. Mcnamara said he expected
to prove that the defendants had
knowledge of the denial when they
prepared their editorial articles for the
Indianapolis News.
Payment of s4o,ooO,ooo
Bv menberse of J. Pierpont Nor
ean's staff he said he expected to prove
that the S40,000O00 the United States
paid for the Panama canal was paid
directly to the two old French COM
panies and at once distributed to about
100000 holders of the stock in France,
and that no go-between got cent of
profit
Judge Anderson had expressed doubt
as to the relevancy of further evidence,
saying he himself was impressed by
the fact that Mr.. Cromwell had re-
fused to tell the senate investigating
committee the names Of his clients who
composed a syndicate for American
izing," plan that afterward was
abandoned.
The public might Justly infer, the
court said, that there was something
wrong somewhere in the transaction
in which $4O,O00O00 Of its money was
expended.
