must GIVE REASON
For Making Loan to Defunct
Trust Company.

New York, March 20.--There We're
three important developments in the
grand jury's investigation into the af-
fairs of the defunct Carnegie Trust
company. The district attorney an
nounced that Andrew Carnegie may be
called as witness.
1t was stated that Joseph G. Robin,
who has pleaded guilty to larceny in
connection with his banking opera
tons, probably will be the principal
witness tomorrow.
1t came out in the text of letter
made public that William j. Cum
Minis, a directing head of the Carnegie
Trust company, will be recommended
to Charles III. Hyde. the city chamber
lain, who supervises the deposits of
city money, by Jordan J. Rollins, now
counsel for the state banking depart
ment. Thousands of dollars of city
funds have been tied up in the failure
of the trust company and in Robin S
institutions.
With regard to Mr.. Carnegie. dis
trict attorney Whitman made this
statement:
The books of the trust company
show that Andrew Carnegie loaned il
vast sums of money. He never got it
back, and | think it is doubtful if he
ever will get it back.

portunity to give national guardsmen

der conditions as nearly approaching
service as can be obtained without

Department is endeavoring to cover a

The disposition of the department to

and encouraging.

JAPAN AND MAGOAIENA BAY.

From the New York Sun
1t must have been with a feeling OF
WEAKNESS and impotence that Baron
Cchida, the Japanese ambassador to
the United States, formally denied
that Japan had asked Mexico for a con
cessiOn of territory on Magdalena bay
to establish naval coaling station
here. There has been no more fanci
full notion to account for the military
and naval activity on the frontier ant

the purpose of the administration was

PLATINUM.

From the New York Tribune.
Platinum is going up in price, and
is now much more costly than gold.
Pretty soon fashion will have to turn
it's back on the cheaper metal, and
then all the adulation lavished on gold
by the poets and romancers will lose
its pertinence TO twentieth century
readers. But it will make the up-to-
date poet tear his hair when he has to
find a rhyme for platinum.

WHEEL TAX TEST
CASE UP FRIDAY
Two Autoists Will Appear
in Police Court.

Leroy Mark and A. L. Cline, members
of the Automobile Club of Washington,
will be tried before Judge Pugh in the
Police Court Friday afternoon, on the
charge of failure to comply with the
wheel tax law, which provides tax for
each seat of an automobile.
. The case, which is a test one, was
begun at the irstigation of the Auto
mobile Club, which is fighting the con-
slitutionality of the enactment. W. S.
puvaIl will defend the accused, and
Corporation Counsel Thomas will repre-
sent the prosecution.
The suit had its origin in the law
passed by Congress which provides for
a tax OF 8 for the first two seats of
an automobile, and s. for each addi-
tional seat 1t is claimed by the Auto
mobile Club that the Law is unjust, in
that automobilists already are assessed
a license tax for their machines in addi-
ton to the regular tax, which they pay
as personal property.
Before deciding to enforce the law. the
corporation counsel agreed with Mr.. Du-
vail to arrest two members OF the club
as a test of the law. Mr.. Mark and
Mr.. Cline were named as the defendants.
AS both have signifed their willingness
to appear, they will be summoned TO
court instead of being arrested.
