He is a coward" replied Mr.. Post

man. He had decided views and was
infallible and made mistakes But I bo-

American Sugar Refining Company for
the best interests of the stockholders and

Havemeyer, had he lived, would be able
to explain the $1G.0 900 issue of common
stock of the National Sugar Refining
Company to the members of the COM

The members of the committee dwelt
particularly upon the S10.000o00 issue of
common stock which was made by Mr..
Post at Mr.. Hayemeyer's direction. Mr..
Havemeyer, Mr.. Post said, furnished the
money for the organization Of the Ma
tional Sugar Refining Company. Mr..
Post added that two dividends, one of 10
and another Of Is per cent, had ben paid
upon the common stock. The dividends,
he said, which amounted to 81 5000 were
paid to Mr.. Havemeyer. The whole is
sue of stock was also turned over to Mr..
Havemeyer, who later gave Mr.. Post
5000 shares, or $4,000, as compensation
for organizing the National Sugar Re-

CROWDS OUTSIDE
ENJOY Big SCENE
Mass of Curious, Humanity
in the Streets.

Nearly five times as many persons were
outside the White House grounds last
night as were within the gates, and they
enjoyed the fairyland-like beauty Of the
grounds and appreciated the strains Of
the Marine and Engineer Corps bands
fully as much as II they were dressed In
swallow-tailed coats or low-neck GOWNS,
and were tramping the White House
lawn mingling with the society and
diplomatic sets Of the Capital
The bulk of the crowd gathered in the
rear of the fountain directly behind the
| Marine Band. The throngs blocked the
right of way Of vehicles and it was only
by the most strenuous efforts of police
men that a passage was made whenever
vehicles tried to pass.
The avenues and streets leading to the
White House were a mass of curious hu-
manity. Men and women eIbowed each
| other in their efforts to gain point of
vantage where they could get a glimpse
! Of the brilliantIy-lighted grounds and the
persons inside moving around like moths
lowering about a flame.
A detail OF soldiers from the Washing
ton Barracks, in full-dress uniform,
formed a Gordon inside the fence, while
on the outside policemen were stationed
| twenty feet apart. Directing the car
riages and keeping the crowds moving
were fourteen mounted policemen. The
police detail was In charge of Inspector
r. H. Boyle, assisted by Capt. Thomas
Hollinberger, of the First precinct, and
Capt Daniel Sullivan, OF the Third pre-
cinct. The entire detail of headquarters
detectives was on duty inside and out
side the grounds in plain clothes.
The crowd was orderly and we'll be-
haved, and the police did not experience
much difficulty in keeping every one
moving.
Inspector Boyle, who has had charge
Of White House crowds for the last
twenty years, said last night thf t the
crowd was one of the most orderly he
had ever handled. The crowd, he said,
was larger than any other that ever
visited the White House, with the ex-
ception OF the tine Of the Roosevelt
Longworth wedding.
The carriages were banked from the
east side Of Pennsylvania avenue, and
then west in Pennsylvania avenue to
Seventeenth street. From Seventeenth
street the line went south to B street
and then east in B street to Fifteenth

George f. Ormsby Defends His OvvI
Sanity.

The hearing on an application for an
inquiry into the mental condition of
George F. Ormsby, a member Of the
local bar. began yesterday before a jury
in Justice Wright's court.
Ormsby, according to the government,
labors under the delusion that certain
judges and court officials have entered
into conspiracy against him. John Nc
Fall, chief Of a division of the Interior
Department. testified that Ormsby's
work and conduct was peculiar.
Ormsby conducted the examination OF
witnesses. He was convicted in June.

a new trial was oyerruled and sentence
