hero 80 long that It began to grow
dark, and he therefore determined to
spend the night on the ground Tho
next day he arose IN the air to return
to heaven. but God met him when he
was about six cor feet up and said:

you? Al, therefore. you have dir

\o particular reason exists Tor doubt

explanation that his note to District At

conformity with his general theory that
state officers should he consulted in
"matterS pertaining 10 their depart

DiNS mind all of Il sudden tO take This
action The District Attorney has been
working upon the bank cases for good
while. There was the Robin proSCcu-
tion. cntailing necessary inquiry into
the affairs of Robins banks. Why dur
ing its progress did not tho Governor
think 10 direct Nr. Whitman 10 confer
with the Attorney General lin conform
ity with his theory: Why. when tn"
trail GOT warm. apparently involving
some politicians with the group that had
operated through the Carnegie Trust
Company. did the Governor all at once
become aware Of his theory What put
if i'm his mind Who put il i'm his mind?
Moreover the Governor had only the
Carnegie Trust Company case in view
He docs not write bidding the District
Attorney 10 confer with regard to the
bank frauds in general but bids him
confer only lin matters pertaining ia
the Carnegie Trust Company" Why
was the language thus restricted?
Moreover. il has not been denied that

into the Carnegie Trust Company. and
left # TO he delivered by their counsel to

il was gross Improperly. Does a close

relations with persons who would want
the District Attorney called Off:
