the regular news columns Of the BUR-

more appropriately have been set in the

day and remain closed all day Monday,
so that the stonecutters may come into
town TO stay over Sunday"
The fever referred to Is the baseball

the Boston Red Sox and captained BY
two Vermont boys, Ray Collins and
Larry Gardner. So far as known no

IS BRINGING OUT MANY IMPORTANT FACTS
 IN INSURANCE FRAUDS

The domestic companies were opposing the bill and Mir. Hotchkiss asked the wit ness if Le was not getting money from both sides. MT. Buckley had no opinion on that subject He would not even ad- init that any of the money paid to him was in connection with the bill. He said he krew little about the bill, and when MT. JIotehliss asked him if he had paid any money tc legislators, he said:
 That's absurd; no sir
 Preceding Buckley, Carl Schreiner, United States manager of the Munich Re- Insurance company, and Carl Sturhahn, American manager of the Prussia lnsur- ance comI any, were on the stand. Ihey told of payments to Buckley by their com papies of various sums during num- Ter of years.
 William. l.. Hutchins, president of the North River Fire Insurance company, and a member of law and legislation of New York board of underwriters. which approved the bill. submitted by Elijah R. Kennedy for s1S.311 for legislative work in Albany in 1901, was a witness to- day.
 MT Hutchins acted as collector of funds for influencing legislation more than once. In 1904 he collected all or part of a fund of sl5000 which the late George F. Shel- don, president of the Phanix company, wanted MT. Hutchins said he contrib uted SLIGO for his own company.
 A letter iron. Sheldon to MT. Hutchins regarding this bill indicated the money was raised for William H. Buckley, an Albany lawyer, for legislative work, and for the firing of men in various parts of the state tc correct public sentiment"

New York, March 23.-Although William Hotehkiss, tllc state superintendent of insurance, was still unable to uncover pos tive proof that money was used to buy votes at Albany in connection with fire insurance legislation, he did develop some interesting facts at todays session of the inquiry in regard to the work of Will liam H. Buckley Buckley is a lawyer of Albany, who started his practice Tn 1901. Three years later, according to tes- timony, he was getting well on toward $3o,0o0 a year from insurance companies for his legal services.
 Buckley found it profitable to represent the fire insurance companies, but he tes- tified today that he never appeared in court for them, never went before legis- 'lative committees; in fact, he could not remember just what he had done. He could oniy say that in a general way he acted as counsel for the companies and that he had kept no record whatever of any transaction. He was under annual retainer from several companies.
 In 1904 he received between $25,OOO and s39, 900, of which about $15,G00 was from the foreign insurance companies, accord lag to estimates produced. He also re- ceived various large sums from the do- mestic concerns. This was in the year that the Grady reinsurance bill, which benefited foreign reinsurance companies by reducing tho amount of their reserves, was passed.

RAILROAD BILL
 IS DISCUSSED

Washington, March 23.-When the administration railroad bill was taken up by the Senate today Senator FL kins said that as no one was pre- rared to speak on the bill he would ask to have it temporarily laid aside. lie said he would not again call up the Inea sure until the disposal of the legislative, executive and judicial ap- propriation bill which would come .o- morrow, but added that after the pas saso of the appropriation bill he would request senators to either proceed with the discussion of the bill or consent to fix a time for taking vote on it.
 Members of the committee are giving much attention to modifications to mee' the objections that have been urged against the bill. There is tacit un- derstanding that several changes wall be made, including the following:
 A provision allowing shippers to intervene In suits brought by carriers against the United states to set aside or modify orders of Ike interstate ecoul merce commission
 A prohibition against the interstate commerce commission exercising ju- i.isdiction over port to port water trans portat:ons.
 Authorization f)- appeals from in terlocuiory decrees and provisions for i've days notice of injunction proceed tues. in accordance with existing law.

There are few men in this country who can fly any sort of an aeroplane and none, except the Wright themselves and three army officers who can handle the Wright biplane. The army officers are, of course, not available for exhibition work and the Wrghts will not personally give any exhibitions.
 The Wright brothers received an of- fer from the San Jose chamber of com meree this week offering them s16000 for a four-day series of flights. They de- clined, saying they expected to make that much a week out of their series of exhibitions and that while they would

This is the wreath placed upon the head of Senator Benjamin Conger today by his chief coun- sel, James w. Osborne, when concluding his summing up in the senate's investi- gation of Conger's bribery charges against Senator Aids and left his clients case in the hands of the jury of 4s senator's
