RICH FRIENDS PAY

Roosevelt'S Hunt Has Not

Secretary Wolcott Answers Cues

so many letters and inquiries regard
Sng the source of the funds used by the
scientists accompanying the Roosevelt
expedition in Africa have been received
that Secretary Walcott of the Sinith-

bulletin declaring that not one cent OF
the cost comes from the funds OF the
insttt,tiou nor from the United states
Government.
However, Secretary Waloott VIII not
announce the names OF the donors VINO
provided the large funds necessary Tor

have money enough and to spare is GER
tain. only recently one OF the donors

and asked If there was enough money
subscribed. The secretary replied that
a little more was needed. and the man
sat down and wrote out a large check
The donors are rich men who are
friends of Colonel Roosevelt. They
wanted 20 see the expedition a success
and also wanted to see 1t stand for
something more than the slaughter OF
beasts which such big hunt would
necessarily mean.
Although the name of the Smith

Of persons have visited the great build

tons OF science which have been gath
cred under its auspices, few under

persons believe that it is a part OF
the Government, and that its expen-
ses in the Roosevelt trip must neces-
sarily come out Of the Government

It's Peculiar Relation
The Smithsonian Institution occupies
a peculiar relation TO this Government.
IT is part OF II and yet it is not

on appropriation by Congress, and vet
this monesy does not belong TO the

For the first eight years. the money
lay in the Treasury while plans We're
being formulated for the permanent es-
Establishment described by SmithsOn In

ceived and there were schemes enough

That the institution has been worked
out on such broad lines as to be one Of
the greatest forces I'm scientific re-
search in the world is undoubtedly due
to the force and strength of the four
men who have been at its head as sec
rotary since 1876. Joseph Henry, Spenc-
er Fullerton Baird, Samuel Pierpont
Langley, and Charles d. Walcott have
been retained I'm office by the board Of
regents, and they have devoted their
lives TO its development along broad
lines
The board Of regents is composed of
the Vice President of the United States.
the Chief Justice of the United States.
three United states Senators, three
Representatives, and six citizens of the
United States at large.
The National Museum, the Weather
Bureau, the Geological Park at Wash
ington, the Fisheries Bureau, and the
Astrophy sicaI Observatory have been
developed by the institution.
The objects OF the institution as de-
fined by it's first secretary, Joseph
Henry, have been adhered to through
the years of it's existence. They are
to increase knowledge by original in
vestigatiOns and study either in
science or literature; and to diffuse
knowledge not only through the Unit
ed States, but everywhere, especially
by promoting an interchange Of
thought among those prominent in
learning in all nations. No restric-
ton is made in favor of any one
branch of knowledge.
The leading features of the plan Of
Prof. Henry were in his own words
ITO assist men Of science in max
ing original researches, to publish
them in a se.tes of volumes. and to
give a copy Of them to ever first class
library in the world"
Books, laboratory accommodations,
and apparatus have been supplied to
thousands of investigators through

DREAM DISRUPTS BLACK HAND
Woman's Vision of Robbery Leads to
Arrest of Gang, Who Receive
Long Sentences.

New Haven, Conn.-The BLACK
Hand" gang which has %terrorized New
Ravens $4,000 Italians for five years.
and within two years has commenced
10 terrorlze the other citizens, was
crippled for many years to come when
Judge Williams sentenced Vincenzo
Saboatassae, leader of the gang, to 20
years in state prison and gave other
members long sentences.
The BLACK Hand gang has oper-
ated in Connecticut for five years,
with headquarters here. Sabbatassae,
under the name of Giuseppe Rosi, was
a member of the New York gang after
coming to America from Italy, where
he had been convicted of murder and
had escaped. IL New York he was
given a tive-year sentence in Sing
Sing, and after getting out in the
spring of 1907 he came t O New Haven
to direct things. With him came a
handsome woman, Annie Taddeo, who
stood by him to the end.
1t was in the story of a dream that
the authorities got track of Sabbatas-
sae's own personal gang. Thefts in
the outskirts of the city, and particu-
larly in a cobbler's shop, led to a
search for stolen property on a farm
in the town of Orange, near here,
where Detective James P. Ward of the
New Haven bureau, found a nm
on the %veranda. Mrs. Etto Corvalu.
The oma told Ward of a dream
the night before which had kept her
in a condition of fright all day, and
she wanted him 10 take her away. In
her dream she Ia Frank Guido, who
often visited the house, go with four
other men to the home of the hermit
near by, drink wine with him and
then murder him, after binding and
torturing him into telling them where
his valuables were hidden.
Soon after she awakened, Guido
came to the house with some goods.
She told him of the dream, and he
admitted he had been to Wallingford.
a suburb of New Haven, with Sab
batassae, Jack Libero, a barber of
New Haven; Natalie Pascale, a cousin
of a city official, and Giuseppe Mas
saro, and there had gone to the home
OF the hermit, Fopoli. and that all
the dream details were true, with the
exception that they did no murder
the hermit, but left him bound on the
floor. This proved true. and the old
man was released.
