Why | CANNOT VOTE
FOR Mr.. ROOSEVELT

Mr. Roosevelt was instrumental IN
bringing about peace between huss'a
and japan, and the intelligent, JUS
tice-loving people throughout the
world were eager to express the'I
commentator OF that seemingly no.
BILE act. Later it leaked out that
the representatives of Japan in that
peace negotiation insisted upon
greater money indemnity than the
representatives OF the Russian gov
eminent were willing to concede land
it began to look as if the Peace con-
ference would be dissolved without
effccting the object for which 1t was
called. Then it was, according 10
the claims of the Corcan representa-
tive, that Mr.. Roosevelt agreed that
If the Japan representatives were
willing to concede, that japan would
be allowed to assume protectorate
over the C0rean government without
any protest on the part OF the 10.

RAILROAD HEADS FACE
CRIMINAL PROSECUTION
Wickersham Planning for Step
if Agreement Shows De-
struction of Competition.

Attorney General Wickersham is still
giving careful consideration to the steps
his department may eventually take IN
the alleged traffic agreement between the
Grand Trunk railway and the New Haven
road. Mr.. Wickersham arranged for a con-
ference today with United States Attorney
Wise of New York and Assistant Attor-
new General Adkins, who has been put
in charge Of the inquiry into the matter.
II is at least certain that most searc4l-
ing investigation will be made OF the
hooks and records of the two companies
TO determine whether the proposed traf-
fic ARRANGEMENT will destroy competition
between them in the New England states.
There are hints at the Department OF
Justice that if the facts establish an az
tempt at destruction of competition the
Attorney General may give orders for
criminal prosecution of the heads OF the
two roads. Investigation by grand
Jury in New York has been suspended
because immunity would have to be
granted witnesses in case violation OF
the law has been shown. No one is to be
granted immunity unless it becomes nee
essary in the interest of justice.
The two roads have offered their books
for examination, and il these do not ap-
near to furnish the facts a grand jury
investigation may follow. A copy OF the
nrop0sed agreement between the two
roads. now. in the hands of Mr.. Wicker
sham. does not show evidence OF vio-
lation of the Sherman antitrust law. 1t
is said to relate to trackage privileges.

The military officials were bureau heads
and staff officers from the War Depart
ment, on hand to argue Chairman Joseph
Johnson into allowing the two million
dollars or so of estimates for the army
to go through without cut. The entire
influence of the army seemed to be rep
resented. Among the officers were Gen.
James B. Aleshire, quartermaster gen.
eral; Col. Rogers Birnie, ordnance de-
partment; Maj. William B. Ladue, as
sistant to the chief of engineers; Gen.
George H: Torney, surgeon general and
Col Spencer s. Cosby, superintendent of
public buildings and grounds.
Several Increases Asked.
Approximately two million dollars has
been asked for by the War Department
for" administrative purposes for the
next fiscal year. Several increases have
been asked for, and the entire army is
watching the outcome with intense in
terest. The economical streak of the
last session, coupled with the hint from
the President to keep estimates down,
was responsible for several rather un-
usual conditions in the appropriations
and estimates. One army staff officer
sent in his estimates well within the
limit, and then after the appropriation
| was made. sent in. a hurry-up request
/ for enough money to run his depart
ment," his combined figures totaIing ex-
actly what his previous years expenses

Assistant Treasurer OF United
States Steps Down.
ACTION FOLLOWS REQUEST
Attitude Not in Harmony With
MacVeagh, It Is Said.
c.. S. PIERCE MAY SUCCEED
Now Has Position Under Considera-
tion-Retiring Official Will Be
Given Another Position,

There was another sensation today in
the Office Of the treasurer of the United
States, when Gideon c. BantZ assistant
treasurer Of the United States. sent his
resignation to President Taft, through
Secretary MacVeagh. The resignation
went in almost simultaneously with the
swearing in of Carmi Thompson as treas
urer to succeed Lee McClung. Mr.. Thomp-
son really took the oath of Office at the
White House yesterday. but it was
thought better to repeat it at the Treas
ury today, and this was done in the pres
ence of Secretary MacVeagh and chiefs
of divisions and other officials in the
Office Of the Secretary.
Mr. Bantz's resignation, which was
huge surprise In the treasurer's ofnce
and throughout the Treasury Depart
ment was requested by Secretary Mac
Veagh, who has decided to make MT
Bantz chief of a division in the treas
urer's office or to continue him in ne
other responsible position there.
Purpose Of Secretary.
There are no serious charges affecting
the work of Mr.. Bantz. but it is generally
understood that Secretary MacVeagh felt
that Mr.. BantZ had blocked the way to
a number of reforms and changes in the
treasurer's Office during the last few
years Mr. BantZ, it is intimated, was
the real autocrat Of the treaSurer's Of
flee, even during the term OF Lee NC
Clung, and stood out against some of the
policies and programs the Secretary
wished to put into effect. Between Mr..
McClung and Mr.. BantZ, 1t Is declared,
the Secretary was unable. except by such
dec sive steps as have been used recently,
to accomplish reforms he believed TO De
HxavHt vf<pc
generally.
While the treasurer is under the Sec
retary, treasurers in the past have main
tanned a measure of independence. The
attitude of Mr.. McClung and Mr.. BantZ,
1t Is alleged, was entirely out of har-
mony with the plans of Mr. MacVeagh
and there was little or no cooperation
with his efforts.
In Treasury Forty Years.
Mr.. Bantz has been in the Treasury
Department for forty years. He was
made deputy assistant treasurer by Presi-
dent Grant, after having worked his way
up from a. $500 position. He beca ne
assistant treasurer some years ago upon
| the death Of Mai Meline. He has gen.
! erally been regarded as an efficient and
| faithful employe, and his retention by
Secretary Macveagh Is evidence, his
| friends say, Of his ability.
{, q. Pierce. who is now chief Of the
postal savings division Of the Treasury,
has been offered the position vacated by
Mr.. Bantz, and has the offer under ad-
sivement He is Kentucky democrat
and is well regarded by Secretary Mac
Veagh and other officials.
To what division Mr.. Bantz will be as
signed is not yet known. The Secretary
| will work out the shifting of officials in

TOLD BY HIS LAWYERS
HE NEED NOT TESTIFY
Burton W. Gibson, Accused OF
Szabo Murder, May Not
se.9 4t - ~. ssss. * ~ 1lSpss :
Go on Witness Stand.

GOSHEN, N. Y. November 22.-Medi-
cal experts for the defense were the
only witnesses with the possible excep-
ton Of the defendant himself and his
wife, who were to take the stand to-
day in Burton w. Gibson's trial on the
charge Of numbering his client. Mrs.
Rosa NJ. Szabo, on Greenwood lake July
16 last.
Thomas Garrison, a fisherman, who
found the body, paved the way for the
experts testimony that the organs OF
her throat could have been forced out
of position by handling the body before
it was embalmed. Garrison testified
Yesterday that he twisted the neck and
forced the chin downward to the breast.
Gibson's lawyers have advised him
that they do not think 1t necessary for
him to testify. They expect to COM
plete their case this afternoon, after
which it was thought Justice Tompkins
would adjourn court till Monday, when
counsel will sum up.
Effort to Break Down Testimony.
Prior to calling medical experts Mr..
Elder sought to break down John Min
turns testimony with the testimony OF
William c. Osgoodby. who said he talked
with Minturn the night of the coroner s
inquest.
"Minturn told me- he said, that he
saw the occurrence on the lake, but the
man was between him ana the woman :
and for this reason he could not see what
they were doing in the boat. he Ieit
sure that the man was assailing the
woman, but couldn't swear to It,"
Minturn testified for the state that he
saw Gibson seize Mrs. Szabo around the
neck and thrust his hand to her throat.
DIR. Arthur s. Moore. assistant physi-
clan Of the state hospital for the insane
at Middletown, testified that, experiment
ing with a fluid of the same formula as
that used in embalming Mrs. Szabo's
body. he had demonstrated that 1t was
easy to produce in almost any dead
body the conditions found in Mrs. Szabo's
throat, and which the prosecution has
claimed as evidence that death was
caused by strangulation.
Witnessed the Fall From Boat.
Edward Clark. cook at Greenwood
lake hotel, saw Gibson and his COM
panion fall from the boat to the water,
he testified. They got up. he said. to
exchange seats, and were approaching
each other with outstretched hands
when the boat tipped over. Gibson
and Mrs. Szabo did not meet, he said,
| before they fell out.
DIR. Henry w. Cattell. who qualified as
an expert by declaring that he was for
| ten years professor at the University
| of PENNSYLVANIA and for a time coro-
ner's physician Of Philadelphia. besides
being an author OF text books, testi-
| fed.
THE condition OF this woman's 8
| throat" DR.. Catteu said was caused,
| in my opinion. by post mostem condi-
| tions. the length Of time 1t remained in
the water the way it was handled and
its embalming."
