he knows nothing about the circum-

that he left several samples of gold
dust. its combined value being not to
exceed $4o0, with a director of the

business man of Scranton, who, if he
has lost the gold, is perfectly able to
make 1t good, Therefore, Mr.. Stevens

Go 10 The BOTTOM or TIE COKE CHARGES

The Star Bulletins declaration earlier in the
week that Judgment should be suspended as to
the charges of graft against John H. Wise until
Wise had an opportunity toaanswer, is amply
borne out by the statements Of the senate clerk
published in another column today
Senator Coke has made serious charges and
these charges are fatty denied by Wise, who to-
day makes brief statement in explanation and
pledges himself later to answer in detail every
complaint made by the senator. He also hints
hat something more than desire to draw public
attention to senate expenses is at the bottom of
C0ke's assertions. 800 .Fs#
The charges are far too serious to be dropped
now, no matter what may be the explanations.
they must be sifted to the bottom and Coke must
show good ground for his statements. An ac-
cused man is presumed innocent until he is
proved guilty. Nor can the senators who served
on the accounts committee pass over the charges
lightly. That course does not tend to establish
public confidence in them. They should have
been the first to insist on fuH publicity for the
matter, as Wise is now doing.
