THE BRICK YARD TRAGEDY.
MIR. Ryttenberg Corrects Statement
Made that No One Wadcd Into Wa
ter To- Attempt Rescue Of Little Boy.
Editor Daily Item:

Editor Daily Item;
The account published in Thurs
days paper about the drowning at
the brick yard contained an erroneous
statement that has caused comment
and censure. We wish to correct the
statement that no one went in the
water to try to rescue the little boy.
Mr.. II. E. Street, the assistant fore
man and the only white man on the
yard at the time, as well as Henry
London one Of the hands. both went
into the water over their heads, as
soon as they were notified by the lit
tie Kennedy boy. They were chilled
and almost frozen from the cold wa
ter. but stayed in as long as they
could, without any results.
OF annoyance to us at all times for
boys to come out to our place Of bus
iness. We have repeatedly driven
them of before and since the last ac-
cident, regardless Of the fact that we
have posted our premises and pub
Nshed notices to this effect in your pa
per. 1t is almost q daily occurrence In
the warm weather for us to drive boys
away and there are only two things for
tho parents to do, and that Is either
to keep their children at home or
grant us permission to chastise them
when we find them trespassing on our
premises. 1t is useless to say we
could have them arrested for tres
passing when the mere coming on the
premises causes us no financial loss.
Yours truly,

SULZER'S TAX PLAN STIRS.
Dealers in Stocks Make Threats of
Leaving New York.

New York, Feb. 2O.-Governor
Suffers simple plan for increasing the
States revenue by doubling the stock
transfer tax started a roar of indfg-
nation which began on the floor Of
the Stock Exchange and spread out
among bankers, insurance companies
and real estate men Interested in the
financial district.
Members Of the exchange were Sc
riously discussing today proposals for
moving their business to Philadelphia
or Boston in the event that the new
bill became a law.
Leading real estate men were great
ly concerned over the attempt TO in
crease the transfer tax In several
instances brokers served notice that
they would not want their present
quarters after May / if the new law
were enacted
Neither Massachusetts, nor Penn
sylvania imposes a tax on stock trans
fers and the Boston Exchanges char
ter allows dealers in securities listed
on the New York Board. For that
reason some of the brokers were pre-
dieting the removal Of most Of the
stock business to Boston in the event
Of the per cent tax being doubled.
Members Of the Stock Exchange
took no action toward voicing their
protests direct to the Governor be-
yond notifying a number Of real es-
! tate men Of their intention to vacate.

WALKER PICKED FOR CABINET.
Washington Hears Jerseyite Will
Head Department. OF Justice.

N"u DNDuh titht vi OuStlCc.
Washington, Feb. 20.-Edwin r.
Walker, chancellor OF New Jersey,
who directed the drafting Of the
Seven Sisters" the proposed Anti
Trust laws of New Jersey, is the
man that President-elec Wilson has
in mind to take charge Of the De-
partment OF Justice in his Cabinet,
according to reliable reports in Wash
ington tonight. This news reached
Washington today and was quietly
talked among the Democratic lead
ers.
Chancellor Walkers antitrust bills
in New Jersey have attracted nation
wide attention. They provide per-
sonal punishment for officers OF trusts
which break the law. President-elect
Wilson, six years ago in a speech at
the jamestown Exposition, came out
boldly for personal punishment to
break up the practice of rebating by
railroads, a practice which was then
being laid bare. He declared at that
time the best method to stop rebating
was to Jail John d. Rockefeller and
not fine the Standard Oil Company
s29,O00,000. This speech was deliver
ed a few weeks after Judge Kenesaw
Mountain Lands had handed down
his famous decision, fining the Stand
ard Oil Company the sum Of $29,-
900, 900 for rebating.

Appointment Read.

Columbia, Feb. 20.-Dr. w. Gus
tave Houseal, OF Newberry, was to-
night appointed by Governor Blease
as superintendent OF the State Hospi-
tai for the Insane. succeeding Dv. J.
w. Babcock, the incumbent. The ap-
by request OF the Governor. was read
in open session. An executive session
will be held by the Senate to pass on
the appointment
Governor Blease had expected DR..
Houseal TO be elected n member of
the board OF trustees OF the Charles
ton Medical College and said that he
gave the position OF superintendent OF
the State Hospital for the Insane to
Dr. Houseal to show what he thought
OF him, the Governor being very much
disappointed over the failure OF the
General Assembly TO elect Dr. Hou-
seal as a trustee OF the Medical Col
lege.
Dr. Houseal Is a resident OF New
berry and the personal physician OF
the Governor.
Dr. Babcock was appointed super
intendent OF the Asylum by Cover
nor Tillman during his first term in
the early 90s and has held the po-
sitlon ever since. The Constitution
gives the Governor the right TO ap-
point the superintendent and board OF
regents OF the state Hospital for the
Insane.
The naming of DR.. Houseal to sue
coed Dr. Babcock came as a great sur
prise 20 the General Assem- oly and to
people generally, and caused much
discussion.
The reason for 90. opp5intment Is
attributable 10 tLe failure OF the
General Assembly to name DIR. Hou-
seal as a trustee of the Medical Col
lege.
- The Senate went into executive ses-
sion at once to consider the appoint
ment OF DR.. w. G.. Houseal as super
lnNtnuenl OI the Slttie I1OSplldl lOi
the Insane. A hot debate took place
over the matter. and during the course
OF the discussion the splendid work
which Dr. Babcock has done for the
State Asylum was lauded by member
after member. DR.. Houseal was re-
ferred TO In highest terms. but the
Senate did not approve of the Cover
nor's attempted ousting of DIR. Bah
cock.
The statements that the COnsti-
tuition requires that the board Of re-
gents OF the Asylum and the super
intendent be appointed with the ad-
vice and consent OF the Senate; that
the Constitution forbids the holding
of any office for life, except that of
notary public. and, that the appoint
ment OF Dr. Houseal was illegal,
were brought ont during the thresh-
ing out OF thii matter.

sAre you sure these invitations

We approached the portals Of the
Chicago ice palace where the
s'froxen banquet" OF the American
Association Of Refrigeration was
to be held.
On all sides there we're police
men and detectives were giving uf
frozen stares. Unlike the dele
gates to the worlds refrigeration
congress, we wore no dress suits,
nor did "ice" sparkle on our
fingers or our shirt fronts.
But somehow we got In. Two
thousand guests had assembled in
the huge banquet hall, including
hundreds OF women whose gowns
were not designed for visiting ice
plants. When we found our table
the artist gave a groan of disap-
pointment. He found that he
would have to eat with ordinary
knives and forks instead of silver
ice tongs. He couldn't even pick
his teeth with an ice pick, poor
fellow!
All the food served at the ban
Quet was guaranteed to have been
packed on ice for at least one
year. That kind of food would
be q strong" inducement at any
time. Two sharp knives were
supplied each guest, in case the
Chinook salmon, caught during
the first Cleveland administration,
should rise in its wrath and at
tempt to register wallop.
The refrigerator men, you see,
boast that they freeze fresh
caught fish with the wrfggle in
'em." Naturally, we expected to
get few cabaret wrigglers during
the fish course, but apparently the
Old-time fish had been subdued in
the kitchen by husky walters.
The walters were kept busy
serving relics of antiquity to the
hungry multitude. For instance,
they dispensed 168 frozen turkeys,
including several that had been
stolen by the Hessian troops while
Washington was crossing the Del
aware. They also served a whole
ton of beef tenderloin. The bill
of fare called this course "Teur-
nedos de Boeuf. Melba." How
ever, the beef was SO feeble with
age that it couldn't hit back.

WOMAN PROPRIETOR OF
HOUSE OF ILL REPUTE
QUICKLY CAUGHT IN EN-
DEAVOR TO BRIBE POLICE
MEN AND DETECTIVES.

NEW YORK, Oct. Evident
ly Rose Barrick does not read the
newspapers. If she did she would
know that among New York po-
licemen the custom of accepting
brides has almost become a dead
letter. She would know that
some ten or Q dozen bribe-takers
and grafters are doing time in
Sing Sing, that others are watt
ing to be tried, and that the re-
mainder OF the force is strong
just now for probity and virtue.

Mrs. Barrick, because she didn't
keep her police dope up to date.
She is the proprietoress of hotel
in West 45th-st which has always
been known as the kind from
which no guest ever writes let
tiers home.
The other night the police
pinched the place. They arrest
ed Mrs. Barrick, who is a colored
woman about As years old and
reputed to be wealthy. She got
bail and at once sent word to
Detective Jones, who had charge
of the case, that she would like
to meet him and t.fix things up
with him and the two policemen
who had made the arrest. I'm
doubtedly she had precedent for
such a procedure.
Jones made the date with her.
They met in Central Park. with
stenographer hiding in a clump
of bushes nearby. Jones agreed
to take $500 from the woman,
5000 for himself and 500 for
each of the cops. The money
was to be paid in one Of the big
department stores in 42d-st.
The next day at the appointed
time, the detective was standing
near the elevator in the store in
question. Inside the car was De-
tective Jehelka, disguised in the
uniform of the regular elevator
man. Staining on the fourth
floor, made up az perfectly
good floor walker, was Detective

Mrs. Barrick soon came. She
and Jones entered the elevator
As the car neared the fourth
floor she was in the act of hand
ing the detective $500 in bills,

money.
