Shortly after, however, the certificates ap-
peared on the curb and an Investigation
began. The trust company says It was
loan, and this agent now appears to have
been Sherwood, representing young Pcrsch,
who in turn intimates tina he wal acting
for someone above him. Blu Mr.. Joyce is
emphatic in saying that he had never seen
Sherwood to his knowledge until today.
Sterling Birmingham, chief of the loan de-
psrtment of the trust company. acted as
intermediary between Joyce and the lender,
while Joyce was under the impression that
he was getting the money direct from the
bank.

Charles r. Katz, treasurer Of the Eastern

man testified that he made out a note for

ceive $3.50 for it, but he understood that
the note was not to be discounted for use

Still further evidence of the rapid

the arrangement of long-distance bal.

One of the most ludicrous incidents Of
that trip has just come to light.
When the congressional party
reached San Juan, Porto Rico, 1t met
among other natives Of the island a
deep student of American politics
When he was introduced to Mr.. Mann
he grasped him cordially by the hand,
and said:
What! Is this Jim Mann of Chi
cago? am very glad, indeed, to meet
you, and / wish to say that have

said in the house of representatives

AS his speech was made IN some
what loud tone of voice, II reached
the ears of several others In the party,
and Mr.. Sherman was seen advancing
toward the native with outstretcned
hands.

THERE is work in Washington even
d when the foreman Of the shop Is
away. 1t seems almost unbelievable,
but there are men and women in the
United States who do not know that
the president is absent from the capi-
tai. The list of persons who write let
ters to the chief executive firm in the
conviction that he is still at his White
House desk, might be Of service to
the circulating department of some
live newspaper. There is a sad need
in some parts of the country of a
daily intelligencer.
Reports from the road go to show
that Mr.. Taft gets daily mail en-
route and that in between speeches he
does his best to give it attention.
There is no great decrease evident,
heWever, in the size of the mail that
comes several times day to the
q nite House in this time of the pres
iIant's absence. Mr.. Taft's private
secretary. Frederick w. Carpenter. is
not taking a vacation. He is hard at

solution were the president at his
desk. The entire clerical force at the
White House is busy, and the only
places where the hum of industry is
unheard are in the cabinet room and
in the presidents private office.
There are those who do not regard
the absence of the members of the of.
fetal family as wholly unmixed evil.
The first assistant secretaries of the
different departments act as chiefs In
the absence Of their superiors In Of

man to whom vanity is thing apart
to be able to write himself down in
truth as acting secretary of the treas
ury, or of war or of the navy.
This year In the capital 1t certainly
is a case of when the cats away the
mice will work. There is more &C.
tivity manifest among the clerks Of
the different departments than ever
before.
When the clerks first heard this an.
nouncement they smiled as they al
ways had smiled when they heard the
same announcement made in the
years gone by. The time for smiling
passed quickly, and 1t was the frown
Of the secretary Of labor that sent the
smile into hiding. Mr.. Nagel was
known when he came to Washington
as great politician. Politicians, as a
rule are not Sgiven to such deeds as
the disturbing Of the equanimity OF
employees of the government. In truth
politicians are regarded as being more
or less easy. Mr.. Nagel frowned.

Record more than any other member

result OF any desire on his part to

consequence of his intent study of all
