The French police are not hopeful re-

Eastport. Me. July 19.-Beginning his
ten days stay in Maine, President Taft
reached the northeast corner of the United
Chief Magistrate of the nation had visited
this part Of the state, and for Mr.. Taft 1t
completed travels to the four quarters OF
the country. He has not been TO Key
West as President. but he said to-day
that his tours of the United States always
deeply impressed him with the homogene-
ty of the people, their aims, ambitions
and their ideas of true American citizen
ship being everywhere the same.
The President spent an hour and a half
ashore this afternoon, and after an auto
mobile trip which carried him to all the
points of interest on Moose Island he
made a ten minutes speech in front OF
the Peavey Library, in Water street.
Everybody in Eastport was there to see
and hear, and some had come into the
city by trains and automobiles. Mr. Taft.
following the purpose he announced from
Beverly, did not touch on politics. He
did say. however. that he did not see just
why Maine should have her elections two
months earlier than most of the other
states of the Union. The election here is
to be held this year on September u, and
the Republican leaders, who have a hard
campaign on their hands, are hopeful that
Mr.. Taft's presence in the state and his
speeches here and at Bangor. Rockland
and possibly Bar Harbor may have good
moral effect

and 2 the directors agreed to pay the
other "a, ,O0O,OOO also by subscribing for the
securities company's three-year per cent
notes for that amount at par, this ar
rangement being carried out a few days
later.
John D. Crimmns, one of the Metro
politan Securities Company directors, when
asked at his country home in Stamford,
Conn, whether the sums stated by New
York newspaper yesterday to have been
paid by the various directors of the COM
pany had been correctly stated. said there
were many ina ccuracies in the article. add
ing:
Il gave you an interview about July l,
in which I told The Tribune that all these
gentlemen had to find the amount to be
paid to the New York City Railway Com
pany. L told you at that time what I had

The figures stated by the paper yester-
day were as follows: Thomas F. Ryan,

for one of the four 81 1000. 900 notes made
by the Securities company, and 100000

B. Widener and John D. Crimmins. each
81 800, 900. divided as Mr.. Ryan's payments

Receivers Interest Over.

Who arranged the settlement of the
suits brought by Receiver Ladd, which
have been ended by the payment Of the
s55000 600 by the directors of the Metro
pOlitan Securities Company named, has
not yet developed. Mr.. Ladd said yester-
day:
You will have to go to the other side
for that informa tion. All I know, all that
interests me. is that the money was paid
in-the whole of it 1 have received it,
perfectly good check, and 1 am not con-
cerned with anything else"
Robert W. DeForest, of counsel for the
old directors of the Metropolitan Securities
Company, said
II do not think the matters brought for
ward now are the pubics business. That
the lump sum of money was paid concerned
the public. / admit. and at the time the
matter was consummated I outlined it for
the public But do not think it concerns
anybody just what sums were paid, and
by whom
There is nothing to add to the state
ment which I made. 1t was then set forth
that the ten directors Of the Metropolitan
Securities Company had agreed to put up
81 100000 and to cash notes of the company
for 100000. Should these notes ever be
paid by the company the directors will get
their money back. but the ability of the
company to pay the money back will be
dependent entirely on the method adopted
for the reorganization of the Metropolitan
Street Railroad Company.
The plan of adjustment under which the
litigation was terminated was submitted to
Receiver Ladd by Mr.. DeFerest and Lewis
Cass Ledyard. as counsel for the various
defendants in the suits brought by him
Payment of the $, 5,500,O00 was made on July
S by a check drawn on the Mercantile
Trust Company by Mr.. DeForest.
