 In June of that year Rhodes got s10,- 900 from the National Board of Fire Underwriters for his services at Wash ington in connection with the repeal of the tax.
 Kennedy had previously testified that Ee gave $5000 to Col. George Dun nan, one time chairman of the repub- lican state committee. In explanation of this gift he said today;

That was why felt 1t necessary to seek the support of the extra constitutional government. went to Colonel Dunn and gave him s500O.
 Stewart Browne of this city, who was the promoters of the International Banking and Trust company, sent a let ter to MT. Hotchkiss today defending g the connection of Edward E. Mccall. who has since been elected supreme court justice with the company. MT. Browne said not dollar was paid by the company to anyone to put through the bill for the incorporation of the American Bond and Mortgage Guar antee company, it's predecessor.
 MT. Mccall, he said had nothing whatever to do with the passage of the bill and everybody who obtained stock in the company. including MT. Mccall and Buckley, paid the full prrce for it. Buckley borrowed money twice from the international company, ne said, and Mccall, out of friendship. helped him to meet the loans when they were called. One of the loans was transferred to the Phenix Fire Insur- ance company of Brooklyn. Buckley was out of town when the transfer was made and before he left he ask ed George P. Sh eldon. president of the Phenix, to send the check for the amount of the loan to Mccall. That was how it happened, according to the letter that McCal lindorsed Buck ley's check as shown several days ago.

FIRE ON FOURTH AVENUE
Unoccupied Cottage Was Found in
 BIase By Firemen Last Night


 BIaxe By Firemen Last Night
 A fire which is supposed to have been of incendiary origin was discovered this morning at 1s:2O o'clock in vacant house at 1914 Fourth avenue. The house was owned by Mrs E. Schoen. The fire did very slight damage and its cause is yelled in mystery.
 The house is a one-story frame and has been vacant for some time with card on the door advertising it for rent. When the firemen broke into the building last night they found a young man on the inside fighting a small fire in the corner of the room. He disappeared suddenly when the firemen entered and could not be located afterward The flremen were frightened by the cries of the young man for they supposed that a family was liv- ing in the house and that they were strangling.
 The theory of the affair is that crowd of young men had been using the vacant house for gaming place. They probably had some secret way of entering and after once being inside they could carry on their sport without much danger of being interrupted by. the police. One of them probably threw a cigarette on the floor and that started the fire.
