Benito Legarda, for five years one of the resident commissioners represent ing the Philippines in Washington, was born in the city of Manila fifty nine years ago today and was a member of Ag1Iinal ldo's cabinet dur ing the s1ort-1ived Filipino republic. Legardo was chosen delegate by the ATS erican commission which rules the islands. and with his colleague, the popular delegate, represents a con- stituency of eight millions of people.

 tsYou don't suppose I would make a statement like that unless I know it to be true?
 How did you discover it ?''
 Very simply.
 Bivens stepped to one of the great steel safes and drew out 8 manuscript notebook of some 300 pages oE type written matter. On the back of the morocco cover was printed in plsl gold lettering: "The Private Life Of No. 56O."
 He handed the volume to Stuare. closed the safe and resumed his seat. e'sYou may take that book with you, Jim,'' he said quietly. T trust to your honor not to reveal its contents ex- cept in the discharge of your sworn duty as an officer of the law. You will find in it the record of the distinguish ed presidents private. life for the past ten years without the omission of a single event of any importance.'
 Stuart glanced through the book with amazement.

 Stuart glanced rapidly through the first page of the document, and his l eyes began to dance with excitement.
 '"The only favor I ask" Bivens add ed. sis twenty hours notice be fore you act'
 s'I'1l let you know Stuart rose quickly, placed the docu- ment in his inside pocket and hurried l home.
 The deeper the young lawyer prohed into the mass of corruption Bivens had placed in his: hands the more profound became his surprise. That men whose names were the synonyms of honesty and fair dealing, men intrusted with the management of companies whose assets represented the savings of mil Hons of poor men, the sole defense of millions of helpless women and chill dren-that these trusted leaders of the world were habitually prostituting their trusts for personal gain, stagger- ed belief
 He delayed action and began care ful, patient, thorough investigation. As it proceeded his amazement in creased He found that Bivens had AvaI~ rrfo <,P ff3of

The nation was on the tidal wave of the most wonderful industrial boom in its his tory. The price of stocks had reached fabulous figures and still scared to greater heights. Millionaires were springing up. lihe mushrooms, in night
 Two months had passed since Bivens placed in the district attorneys hands the document which was destined to make sad history in the annals of the metropolis Stuart felt that the time had come to act. It was his solemn duty to the people.
 He sat in his private office in one of the great skyscrapers downtown hold ing in his hand q list of the men he was about to ask the grand jury to in- dict for crimes which would send them to prison, exile and dishonored death.
 I've got to do tt--tAat's all. But be- fore do, I'm going to know one or two things beyond the shadow of doubt
 He seized his telephone and made an appointment to call at once on Bivens.
 The financier extended his delicate hand and with a cordial smile led Stu art to seat beside his desk. The only sign he betrayed of deep emotion was the ice like coldness of his slender fingers.

Army of Men Engaged in Throwing up Earthworks to Check Flood Win a Temporary Victory, at Least

Viclsburg, Miss, April 10.-A great army of men throwing up earthwOrks to light off the Mississippi flood rested on their arms tonight along the river stretches from Helena, Ark, south ward. The crisis of the last 24 hours has been met with temporary victory at least. The outcome of the struggle now hangs in the balance, and appar- ently with the advantage on the side of the human forces.
 False Rumors Afioat.
 The usual crop of rumors concerning alleged breaks in the dikes below Helena today were placed in circula- ton by more or less interested per- sons Late today it was rumored the river had cut through at Giles Bend, above Natchez, and that parts of Con cordia Parish. La, and the town of servers at Natchez immediately denied the rumor, and asserted the story was circulated in general scheme to af- feet the cotton market.

 Late tonight the situation was un- changed at Giles Bend. There has been break in a subsidiary levee, but government engineers say they have the breach under control. Millers Bend LeVee Holds Strong.
 The levee at Millers Bend, near Greenville, Miss, held strong today. Alarming reports have been circulated concerning conditions at Greenville. There seems to be no justification for them. It is true, however, that if there should be a break above there the chances Of the city being inundated would be overwhelming.

 BLOW OF SHOVEL HANDLE
Ralph TorelIe, His Alleged Assailant,
 Not Yst Captured

New Haven. Conn, April 16.-David King, aged 22. died at St RaphaeIs hospital late this afternoon as the re- suit of blow upon tho head with a broken shovel handle, struck, it is sl- legged. by Ralph TorelEO, who is now missing.

 At the hospital it was found Kling had fractured skull and concussion of the brain. He did not regain con sciousness from the time he was struck.
 Torello fled after the trouble and has not been seen since, although de- tectives are making a thorough search warrant was issued for his arrest Sunday night charging him with as- sault with intent to kill
