Specific charges Of police grating on

ing an investigation of charges that he
had attempted to levy a $50 graft con-
tribution.
The sensational story of Mary Goode,
which implicated the police in the 4th
Inspection District. under Inspector
Dwyer. was succeeded by the story Of
Diamond Lottie" Stanton concerning
the police of the Sd District, under In
spector Lahey, and yesterday by the
summary action taken by Commis-
sioner Waldo against O'Grady, which
dragged in the lst District.
Robert Shobel, who presented the
complaint upon which OGrady was
suspended, told his story to the Dis
trict Attorneys Office first and was
sent along 10 Police headquarters.
After hearing his story Chief Inspector
Schmittbergcr suspended O'Grady, and
with Deputy Commissioner Walsh be-
gan an investigation which will be car
ried along at the same time as the
Skclly inquiry which was also started

II Is entirely probable that Nanny

graft collector from downtown disor-
derly houses, will be examined at great
length by Mr.. Whitman and even pos

fore the grand jury. This latter step,
however. it is said. will be taken only
IL Mas will tell the whole truth about
his police associations and his knowl-
edge Of dsorderly house graft.
The same general procedure that
marked the gambling graft revelations
will be followed in the present inquiry.
it is understood, and one feature will
he that several men whose names are
now in Mr.. Whitman's hands will be

of the police graft on vice. and some Of
them are now cnder surveillance.

one point that was especially marked
by those who have been following the
trail Of police graft that has been un-
earthed since the Rosenthal murder
was that the Goode story accomplished
at Police Headquarters something that
the Rosenthal story was unable TO ac-
complsh.
Rose-'hars story OF grating by
Becker was decried and discredited by
police authorities. and Mayor Gaynor
took the pains TO instruct Commits
sioner Waldo specifically not to pro-
ceed against Becker on the basis Of
Rosenthals story, with the result that
Becker was still I'm the uniform of a
police officer for half an hour after a
grand jury indicted him for murder.
Mrs. Goodies story, on the contrary
although nothing 10y way of definite
recognition was accorded it at Police
Headquarters, resulted yesterday in the
opening OF an investigation of Patrol
man Skelly. who was named as a graft
collector by the dsorderly house
keeper. Deputy Commissioner Walsh
and Chief Inspector Schmittberger
were busy on the skel'y investigation

The Shobel story, which was also a
subject OF inquiry by those two police

Blessed are they that have part in

the second death has no power.

your enemies? Does He not tell you
to treat them with all kindness?
Will God preach one thing and Drac-
tice another? Student says eternal
death humiliation is no punishment.
My, my. If it was not for the hope
we have of being Resurrected, how
horrible would be death. But, Oh,
blessed hope. The terms en- which
all that obtain eternal life is love, no
fear through faith in Gods gift,
which was wrought through love and
how few have that love Will all
others be sent to that terrible hell?
God forbid. What become Of all
the antediluvians destroyed in the
Old World? They were not fit to
live in the world, surely they were
not fit for heaven, and if in hell, it's
a terrible place. Must all the
heathens go there, besides the mil
lions that love unrighteousness?
My, my, won't it be an army, and
Dear Student, if you don't change
fear for love you will be with the
host. I fear student is like your
scribe who with, every foot up, con-
demned Carrolls book or '"The Mig
ger a Beast" until he read it, then had
no more to say. If student will get
Mr.. Russells books and read them,
probably he, like myself, who have
read the Bible all my life, will find
it q new hook and make him not
afraid of God.
Now if student is not satisfied,
write me direct and we will have it

WHAT HE SAW Al OLD ST.
AUGUSTINE

Dear Sir: I am saving my Maya
zines and Jeffersonians, for my pos
terity. I am with you all the way.
I have been against Foreign Missions
ever since my mother used to name
an old hen Missionary, and sell all
her brood, and give the money to for
eign missions. Your exposure Of the
Catholics is timely and true.
remember in the year 1884, I went to
ST. Augustine, Fla, and visited the
old Spanish fort. I went in the
dungeon and there saw the machi
merry for pulling Christians in twain.
(The Rock and Pinnon.) Also a
niche in the stone wall with a ring
in each end to tie a Christian and
bake him before the fire until he
recanted or burned to death. | wish
you sometimes would go by and see
it and write it up, it made my blood
boil as stood there and thought of
the suffering Of those martyrs. | have
intensely hated the Catholic creed
ever since; firmly believe they would
do us the same way if they had the
power now, they had then; [ am
proud of you as a Southerner and
especially as q Georgian, and [ hope
your enemies~are mine. I don't love
anybody that hates you and tells lies
on you. Thank God those that hate
you are growing less every year.
Long may you live, to tell the truth.

A Taxation Measure Deoates.

Senator Laird of Washington county
made the main argument on Senate bill
5s, known as the Babbitt BILL which
exempts from taxation money loaned at
five per cent. or less on real estate Sc
curity, which was considered at pub
lie hearing before the House committee
on ways and means in the Senate cham
Der last evening. Mr. Laird urged the
committee to 90 farther than the bill
and give the individual the same rights
to loan money as financial institutions,
seven mills ON the dollar. He said the
lending power was now in the hands OF
the banks and characterized them as the
bank trust. They could not change a
law which would relieve the so-called
double taxation without treading on the
toes of the banking interests. If they
were going to exempt from taxation
money OF any description, they should
exempt notes with personal security as
well as that secured by mortgage on
real estate.
Attorney s. f. Emery OF CavendIsh,
master Of the grange at Proctorsyille,
favored the bill, and as representative
of the grange urged them godspeed in
their efforts.
Lieut. Gov. Howe favored the bill on
the ground that it would tend to develop
real estate 1t would give the farmer
boy chance to borrow from the indi-
vidual to buy his farm.
Attorney John w Gordon opposed.
He characterized the bill as Henry
George theory, SO limited, however, rnat
that famous citizen would not recog-
nize it. Its passage would destroy COM
petition. NJ. ]. Hapgood also spoke.
Gov. Fletcher favored the bill.

CHOLERA WORKING HAVOC.
Killing off Turks and Holding Back
Bulgarian Advance.

Constantinople, Nov. 15.--T The Turkish
troops maintaining lines about the
Tchatalia defenses are being dissipated
by the outbreak Of cholera. Eye wit
nesses declare they saw 263 corpses,
buried in one big trench Tuesday.
While the cholera is undermining the
Turkish defenses, it is at the same time
constituting the most formidable oppo-
nent to the Bulgarian advance, and it is
generally believed here that the epdem-
ic has disposed of the question Of even
the temporary occupation OF Constanti-
nople BY the Bulgarian troops. 1t is
also stated on good authority that the
cholera has already appeared among the
Bulgarian troops This would not be
surprising, seeing that they occupy posi-
tions where the disease claimed its irst
Turkish victims. The Bulgarian army
on Sunday occupied Berkos and thus
controls the water supply of CONSTANT
nople. but this has not yet been inter-
fered with, The Bulgarian troops have
reached the vicirity Of Killos at the
Black sea entrance to the Bosphorus,
within a few miles of the capital. The
Rulgarians are now in close proximity
to Therapia, summer resort of Con-
stantinople residents.

LAY SIX HOURS IN
RAIN WITH BROKEN ANKLE
Man by Name of Bond Found Beside
Track at Montpelier Junction
This Morning.

A man, who gave his name as Bond
and said he was from Burlington, was
found beside the track at Montpelier
Junction early this morning, with a
broken ankle joint, after having laid
there six hours. After some delay he
was taken to Heaton hospital, where
he win be operated upon this after
noon.
Bond who declined to disclose the rest
OF his name, or give many particulars
OF himself, came from Burlington on the
night train last night, and evidently be-
licving he was being carried by his des-
tination, jumped off the train while il
was in motion. He broke his ankle joint
and the bone protruded through the
flesh.
Bond was starting on a hunting trip.
He was first discovered by two other
hunters at 6 o'clock this morning, who
notified the police of Montpelier. Sheriff
Lawson and Chief Durkee went to the
junction and then ordered an ambulance
TO bring the man in to Montpelier. He
was taken to Heaton hospital
