 Washington, June 6.-Further trouble for Attorney General Wicker sham in connection with the sale of Philippine friar lands to the sugar trust was promised today by Repre- sentative Martin, Democrat, Colo rado,) who asserted that he would not desist from his efforts to force Congressional investigation until he had had opportunity to present to the House facts which he claims he can produce. In public statement Martin said:
 'NThe legal services of the Taft Wickersham law firm (Strong & Cadwallader), for the sugar trust were but an incident of the situation which enabled a member of that firm to make the friar land deal in the Philippines.

New York, June 6.-Within the next two weeks the contractors promise to have destroyed the Gillender build ing a twentytwo story structure that has stood at Wall and Nassau St. for ten years. This building is being de- molished to make way for a forty two story building. The contractors started the work of tearing down the Gillender building May 1, and on June but seven stories remained These will have been removed in two weeks making a remarkable record, so the contractors say. Wall street is lit tie more than an alley, and to re- move the steel girders, brick and stone without stopping traffic has been a. problem that was overcome by build ing a room over the sidewalk. The destroying of twenty-two story sky scraper because it was not high enough has been a seventh wonder to New Workers who take special pride in showing visitors an example of the recklessness of Manhattan.
