HAYES DEMAND
THE EVIDENCE
Cannot Try Him Says Accus-
Cd Police Officer.

New York, Sept. 6.-Despite the pro-
spector Cornelius @. Hayes, It was
stated at Commissioner Waldo's Office
that First Deputy Commissioner Me
Kay will sit as trial Judge when Hayes
faces charges Of having made a false
statement to Commissioner Waldo.
The corporation counsel a y that Nc
Kay will not be incapac1tated from
acting as trial commissioner because Of
his Importance as a witness IN the case,
according to the information obtainable
at Waldo's office. But In case 1t should
be decided that Mckay is hardly the
best trial commissioner, Third Deputy
Commissioner Walsh will be handy
about the building to step into his
place on the bench. Mr.. Walsh was
formerly a city magistrate in Brooklyn
and is a lawyer. Mr.. Mckay is not.
It was rumored about police head
quarters that Mr.. Mckay will be placed
on the bench as trial commissioner for
the purposc Of holding up the trial an
other week. 1t was said 1t is the wish
Of the department to delay the trial of
Hayes as long as possible and that
the persistence in keeping Mckay on
the bench Is but an evidence Of 1t.
Can't Get Coups's Testimony.
The suggestion made to District AT
torney Whitman that he secure the
testimony given abroad by Thomas
Coupe, the witness to the Rosenthal
shooting who left his position at the
Elks club and fed to England, can
not be acted upon It was said at the
district attorneys ONCE. 1t was
pointed out that, however interesting
Coupe's testimony is, It would be i'm
possible to use 1t legally unless the
defendants counsel were given an
opportunity of Cross examining Coupe
at tho time he tells his story.
Captain Hayes was restored to duty
long enough to deny the published
statements accredited to him that he
would tell on tho witness stand at bis
trial a story that would cause Commits
sioner Waldo to resign. Hayes denied
that he had threatened Waldo In his
statement to District Attorney Whit
man at the conference In the Bar as
soctation building. He made his dis
claimer of the printed stories in writ
ing and was then again suspended.
Hayes was called to headquarters
after Commissioner Waldo had read
the morning papers and asked for an
explanation. Hayes maintained that he
was at a loss to account how such a
story could have got In the papers.

COMPLICATION
OVER new LAW
Possible Withdrawal of Can
didates for u. s. Senator
(From tho NEWS Correspondent

Trenton, Sept. 6:-The proba-
bility of tho withdrawal of two of
the Wilson candidates for United
States Senator in order that united
opposition may be given to James
Smith. Jr., has led to the discovery
that there is a discrepancy In the
election laws with reference to the
withdrawal of nominations for
United States Senator after the pc
titions are once filed with the Sec
rotary of state. At least 1t is
claimed by some that there is a dis
crepancy.

WARNING TONGS
ON TENYO MARU

Among the hundred and forty-five
Asiatic steerage passengers in transit
Fior Japan and China ports of call in
the Toyo Kisen Kaisha liner Tenyo
Maru, are said to be a number of Chi
nese who have been figuring promin-
emily in rivalry among wa1ring tongs,
throughout the big centers of popula-
ton on the mainland and especially
along the Pacific coast.
Officers in the Japanese liner, while
PROCESSING to feel no anxiety over tue
possibility of trouble breaking out
among the delegation of Celestial pas
sengers, nevertheless are taking no
chances in the matter of maintaining
q vigilant supervision of the steeHge.
The presence of several well known
Pacific coast tong leaders on board the
Tenyo Maru just before the vessel
cast off lines at San Francisco for
Honolulu, led the little band OF officers
to believe that a recurrence of some Of
the tragic tong battles highe occur,
unless extreme caTe was exercised in
guarding against possible outbreak.
The Tenyo Maru made fine trip
