Placed on Stand

ALBANY, n. Y, Feb S-The man
who handled the money was brought
before the state senate today by Sen
ator Ben Conger to confirm Conger's s
charge that lothian P. Aids, it's ma
jority leader, accepted $1,000 for in
1uencing legislation.
He proved to be Hiram G. Moe, vet
eran former bank cashier of Groton,
where Conger lives. He declared posi-
lively that, at the capitol, on April %,
1901, he had handed Senator Aids an
envelope containing $1,000 The pur-
pose for which this alleged transfer of
money was made did not appear in the
direct testimony, but Senator Conger
filed an affidavit in which he declared
that the payment was made upon
Aids demand -tin the interests of the
American bridge company
Moe declared he gave $4,000 to an
other legislator
The only other witness today was

BRAASCH'S LAWYER
Defends CLIENT
Says Charges Made Against the
Mission Furniture Dealer
Are UnfOunded
Asserts Embezzlement Accnsa=
tion False and Explains
Financial Transaction

The charges made against A J..
Braasch, Mission furniture dealer. by
Joseph L. Kennedy, formerly business
associate of Braasch at $3.50 Mission
street, are without foundation, accord
ing to Braaschs attorney, Frank v.
Cornish; his mother. Mrs. Albertaine
Braasch, and his brother in law f. G.
Beuck. Braasch is now in Medford
Ore, but his wife is said to be still at
the family home, San Mateo park.
Kennedy and his attorney. Paul T..
Fratessa, who had prepared charges
to present to the grand jury Monday
last, were not heard on that date, but
were ready to formally accuse Braasch
of arson and embezzlement.
Attorney Cornish, for Braasch, an
swered this complaint yesterday. He
said:
"Braasch owned four-fifths of the
stock of the Braasch furniture COM
pany. Kennedy owned one fifteenth of
the stock, which he subsequently sold
to Braasch, under a contract. The
stock was TO be paid for according to
agreement, when certain moneys were
received by Braasch from the corpora
ton. There was about $500, or possibly
d little more, Que h SnneQy. kennedy is
now trying to collect that money
through the grand jury. He first tried
to get a warrant for Braaschs arrest
from the bond and warrant clerks of
fee, but the district attorney would not
issue the warrant on the showing made,
and so he went before the grand jury
The charge that Braasch embezzled
$4,000 from the corporation is false.
Braasch's place was burned out in May,
1909. Before that time the business had
gone through the bankruptcy court
and a composition had been effected
among the creditors August Is, 1908
At that time Mrs. Braasch, Braasch's
mother, advanced $4,000 to satisfy the
creditors. That was being paid back
in small sums. After the fire of May,
1909, Braasch paid his mother what was
due her out of the insurance money.
There was no foundation for insin-
uation that Braasch set fire to his
place. The underwriters reported that
the fire was due to defective wiring.
Braasch left the basement where the
fire started about an hour before, with
F. J. Beuck.
"Braasch sublet the premises of the
store to the Braasch furniture company
at an increased rental, but that was
authorized by the board of directors"
Mrs. Albertine Braasch and F. G..
Beuck substantiated what Cornish said.
Cornish will place the facts before
Assistant District Attorney Cutten. He
said yesterday that Braasch will be
ready to go before the grand jury.

SILVER HALF DOLLAR
is VALUED AT $1,000
Coin Made by Confederate
States Is Exhibited

NEW YORK, Feb. S.-A silver half
dollar. which it would take 5000 whole
dollars to buy, is on exhibition at the
New York numismatic club. 1t is the
half dollar of the confederate states
of America and is said to be the only
extant metallic coin of the lost cause.
The coin is exactly like the United
States half dollar on the side bearing
the figure of liberty, but on the re-
verse it bears a shield with seven
stars and seven bars, with wreath of
cotton plant and sugar cane.
Only four impressions of this coin
were made, one being sent to Jefferson
Davis and the other three to prominent
confederate officials. These three sub
sequently disappeared. The coin is
the property of Edgar Adams, Brook

Captain Bartlett, Who Com
manded Peary's Ship Roose-
welt, May Lead Party

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-America has
similar to those won for her by Com
mander Peary at the north pole. The
National geographic society today re-
solved TO send an expedition in search
of the south pole. provided the neces-
sary funds can be raised 1t is not
believed there will be any failure on
this score. Commander Peary was noti-
fed Immediately of the action.
Captain Bartlett. in command of the
Roosevelt on Peary's trip to the north
pole. probably will have charge of the
antarctic expedition
URGES EXPLORATIONS
After meeting late this afternoon
the board of managers of the Geo
graphic society adopted the following
resolution:
The National geographic society
believes that it is of great import
ance to science that tidal, ma gnetic
and meteorological observations
shall be obtained at or near Coats
land in the same period that the
British expedition under Captain
Robert T. Scott, r. N, is making
similar observations on the other
side or the antarctic area, 1900
miles distant, and at the same time
that this recently discovered land
shall be explored.
That the society is ready to ac-
cept Mr.. Peary's proposition that 1t
shall undertake Jointly with the
Peary arctic club an expedition to
the antarctic regions, as outlined
above, provided that the board of
managers, after consultation with
members of the society. finds that
the project will receive sufficient
financial assistance to warrant the
undertaking"
MAY SAIL IN JULY
It is thought probable that the expe-
dition may be ready to set sail as
early as July. The rapidity with which
financial assistance is Forthcoming will
determine the date.
No spirit of rivalry to the British at
tempt to reach the south pole is being
manifested. it was declared, in the
American expedition.
The latter. which is to make its
starting point at Coats land. will travel
over a territory hitherto entirely un-
explored, while much is known, espe-
cial1y from Lieutenant Shackleton's
work, of that on the other side of the
south pole, where he reached a point
81 miles from the goal.
