BURNED PAPERS
ARE EXPLAINED
Witness Tells Why He Des-
troyed Documents.

New York, May 10.-Frank Baackes,
vice president of the American Steel
and Wire company, testifying in the
hearing Of the governments suit
against the steel corporation, took all
the responsibility for the destruction
Of the papers connecting his company
with the various wire pools.
1t appeared from his testimony that
the papers relating to some Of these
pools other than the horseshoe pool
and which were in the Chicago and
New York Offices had been destroyed
upon Mr.. Baackes' order shortly after
the pools dissolved in 1909. but that
through the failure Of some one to
carry out his orders the papers In the
Worcester office were not, and hence
the government got hold Of them at
the time 1t began its prosecution a
year ago. 1t was these papers which
Mr.. Baackes said that he had told his
subordinates to destroy last fall, be-
cause, he said. he supposed the gov
ernment was through with them.
From both Mr.. Bnackes and George
A. Cragin, the assistant sales manager,
the government lawyers tried In vain
to get testimony showing that the of
ticers Of the steel corporation had
knowledge of he pools In which its
subsidiary was participating.

SOUNDS DOOM
OF THE COURT
Commerce Court Likely to
be Abolished.

Washington, May 10.-By a vote OF
l2O to "a the house refused to restore
III the legislative, executive and judi.
cial appropriation bill a provision fol
the Maintenance Of the commerce
court, which had been stricken out by
the Democratic majority of the appro
%priations committee. Most OF the Re,
publican insurgents voted with the
Democrats against the court.
Representative Jefferson NJ. Levy OF
New York was the only Democrat to
speak In favor of the court. He said II
nounced the interstate commerce com.
mission for its high handed methods In
dealing with railroads and for its eY.
travagance.
Representative Thetus w. Sims OF
a member of the Interstate
aud foreign commerce committee, re
ferred to the commerce court as 1.-The
court of special privilege" Represent
alive William G. Adamson of Georgia,
chairman Of that committee. roundly
criticised the court.
Debate Aimed at Judge Archibald.
The investigation of the charges
against Judge Robert W. Archibald Of
the commerce court were not directly
referred to In the debate, but every
body had them in mind.
There Is a bill pending before the ju-
committee to abolish the COM
merce court, but the committee Is thus
far lot disposed to favor II.
Should the senate agree to the house
provision, the only way President Taft
could save the court would be by veto
ing the entire bill. which carries,
among other items, his salary and trav-
cling expenses.
Action taken by the house foreshad-
ows the abandonment on July / Of the
commerce court and the tariff board II
the senate cencurs and the president
approves the legislative appropriation
bill rs perfected by the house.
In addition to jamming through the
amendment providing for the abolish
ment of the commerce court, another
was passed creating a new agency to
take the place Of the tariff board.
The commerce court and the tariff
board are two of the most important
creations Of the Taft administration.

There are numerous elements to
be considered relative to the noml-
nation of the party standard bear
err" said Mr.. Hudspeth, so that
many of the statements now being
made in connection with the choice
of a candidate are without founda-
ton. There is Tammany Hall and
its influence. swayed by Charles
Murphy. the Clark followers, the
Harmon followers, the Wilson fol-
lowers, the Bryan element and
other factors which all will have
their place In bringing about the

address at the conference yesterday

appeal to the candidates and others
present that the best efforts be put
forth to give the governor q decisive
victory at the primaries on May 2S.

Moses which had led the Democra-
tic party out of the bondage Of de-
feat which had been it's portion in
this state for more than fifteen
years. He spoke of the governor as
having been nominated on a strong
platform, and as having led the
party in such a manner that every
platform pledge had been perform
ed. He continued;
Governor Wilson Is the only
man who in the fifteen years has
been able to redeem the Democratic
party of New Jersey from the old
