contributed their mite to do so imme-
diately. A dime, a quarter or a half
dollar is desired from each. The
amount is insignificant, yet it means
happiness to the stricken family.

Heney's candidacy for the Senate, and
as the prosecutor is a rabid Pro-

FUNERAL SERVICES
FOR MORGAN TODAY

Rome, April IA simple funeral
service will be held over the body of
J. P. Morgan tomorrow. The service
will take place in the room at the
hotel where the body now rests sur
rounded by great masses of flowers
tributes from friends and notable
personages of various countries.
Only relatives, intimate friends of
the family and the American ambas-
ssador, Thomas J. O'Brien, and Mrs.
'O'Brien will attend the service, which
will he conducted by the Rev. Mr.
Nelson of the American church.
The death of Mr.. Morgan has
caused an impression which has be-
come more profound as time passes
Everywhere flags are flying at halt
mast. This is particularly noticea-
bile over the art institutions in which
tMr. Morgan had taken deep inter

constant stream of callers at the hote
to offer condolences

Those who have viewed the body
of the dead financier remark on the
natural appearance, the face having
an expression of tranquility.
All the Rome newspapers give up
pages to "reminiscences and photo
graphs of Mr.. Morgan which were ta-
ken especially when the Italian gov
ernment decided to have gold medal
struck bearing his effigy. In remem-
brance of the return to Italy of the
famous Ascoli Cope, Mayor Nathan
has ordered that the page of the reg
lister of deaths, in which is inscribed
Mr. Morgan's death, shall be kept
among the special documents of the
municipality.
Some anxiety is felt here as to
whether Mr.. Morgan has made provi-
sion in his will for the institutions in
which he was interested, especially
| the American academy, which under
the new form of amalgamation with
! the American School for Classical
Studies, is chiefly dependent upon his
munificence.

citizen at the time of the return o.

SuLzER SUGGESTS THAT NEW
YORK STATE SENATOR GIVE
UP HIS OFFICE.
EXTORT|ON IS CHARGED.
Committee Alleged to Have Sought
Money From President Kendall of
New York Banknote Company to
Push Reform Legislation.

Albany, N. Y, April Accused of
attempted extortion by George H.
Kendall, president of the New York
Banknote company, Senator Stephen J..
StilWell of New York today refused
to resign at the suggestion of Gov
ernor Sulzer. He demanded a thor
ough investigation of the charges.
The senate ordered an inquiry.
Senator StlWell, who is chairman
of the codes committee, introduced a
bill, among other stock exchange re-
form measures, designed to relieve the
New York Banknote company from
alleged discrimination on the part of
the New York Stock exchange, which
it is claimed has refused to list Sc
curities engraved and printed by the
New York Banknote company. In
telegram to Governor Sulzer, Ken
dali alleged that Senator StilWell
charged him $3.50 for drafting the bill;
that the senate demanded $500 each
for four members of the senate codes
committee to report the bill out of
committee, and that further demand
of $1,500 was made to influence the
assembly codes committee to report
the measure.
Kendall said he declined to comply
and notified the senator that unless
the bill We're reported, he would tele-
graph the situation to the governor
and every member of the legislature
The senate bill was reported March 27
and the assembly bill was reported
about the same time and now is on
the order for final passage in the
house.
Senator StilWell declares the entire
story is SO false and so absurd that IT
is scarcely worth replying to. Gov
ernor Sulzer today made public the
following telegram from Mr. Kendall:
The Telegram.
Il offer you evidence that StilWell
the man you sent to draw my stock
exchange bill, charged me $3.50 for
drawing it. He introduced me to Sem
ate Revision Clerk Lewis and asked
me to send check for that amount to
him and they divided proceeds of
check. l offer you evidence that Still
well wrote me March p to come to
his office next day and demandeu
$500 each for four senate committees
men to report the bill out of COM
mittee.
Il said that would do no good un-
less the assembly committee reported
it, and he said he would canvass them
next day and send me wire so that
I would understand how much it
would cost l offer you evidence OF
the amount, namely, $1,500, in his
telegram.
Il declined his proposition. He
called me up next day and told me
there was nothing doing unless l paid
$4,000 in advance.
Il replied l would telegraph the
whole matter to you and every legis-
lator unless he reported the bin out
in "a hours. He did it. Under the
same penalty I demanded of him that
my bill be reported out of the as
sembly committee Immediately, and it
was done in As hours.
Il think l ought to let you know
anyway. If you want some undocu-
mentary hearsay evidence of the stock

FORMER PRESIDENT AND WIFE
RECEIVE WARM WELCOME
AT STUDENTS HANDS.
THOUSANDS TURN OUT.
Cheers and YelIs Feature Arrival Of
Man Who Will Teach the Young
sters Law-Mr. Taft Feelinsly Re-
spends to Demonstration, and Says
He Hopes to Stay With Them.

New Haven, Conn, April 1.--Umler-
graduate Yale welcomed former Pres
ident William H. Taft back to his
alma mater today in a manner no
less hearty and enthusiastic than was
the godspeed given Woodrow Wilson
by the Princeton students when he
left a month ago to take up the du-
ties at Washington that Mr.. Taft was
about to lay down.
Practically the entire student body,
5000 strong, reinforced by band,
was at the station when 'Mr. Taft and
his party arrived this afternoon. An
equally large crowd of citizens also
was present. AS the Taft party step
ped from the train, Captain Spalding
of last years football team, stepped
forward and presented Mrs. Taft with
a bouquet of violets.
A moment later Yales famous
Frog chorus cheered with nine
'Tafts" on the end, roaring from
5000 throats.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Taft We're deeply
moved by the demonstration. Mr..
Tafts famous smile was lacking for a
moment and he wore serious look
AS the demonstration grew, however,
he smiled broadly and doffed his hat
in Acknowledgement. -
Headed by they" men of the ath-
letic teams and a bulldog straining at
it's leash, the procession proceeded to
the campus.
Ovation Along tho Line.
Mr.. and Mr.. Taft, with a delega-
tion of the faculty, followed in an au-
tomobile. All along the line the ex-
president and Mr.. Taft were given
a continuous ovation. Arriving on the
campus Mr.. Taft was escorted to
balcony ,in Memorial hall. AS he
started to speak he received another
great ovation.
Visibly affected, Mr.. Taft said:
Men of Yale: You will be lieve me
when l tell you that l am greatly
touched by this student reception
Then with a smile, he continued:
when it was suggested to me-
deprecated it and thought it might
be better to defer it until / took my
departure but as l hope that may be
indefinitely postponed and as l hope
that Mrs. Taft and / are to become
permanent residents of this city and
members Of the faculty of Yale,
thought it was best to take what was
coming to me at first.
You may have heard more or less
discussion when presidents of the
United States are retired-voluntarily
or otherWiSe-aS to what should be
done With them. When l took an in
ventory, all ! had was a somewhat
tarnished reputation as a lawyer-a
profession that l had abandoned 80
years ago--but at the suggestion of
President Hadley, it was decided that
what little law l have left might be
put into practice here, and I am here
again to become an active Yale man.
Men of Yale, as l hear your cheers
and songs, l feel young again-as
If | have shed some of my years. All
this may seem egotistical to you, but l
came here to help the young men who
are going out into the nation.

TARIFF QUESTIONS
ARE DISCUSSED
BY WILSON
THE PRESIDENT CONFERS WITH
OSCAR UNDERWOOD RE
GAREING REVISION.

Washington, March President
Wilson and Representative Underwood
We're in conference for several hours
at the White House tonight over fea
lures of the proposed tariff revision.
The conference was requested by
President Wilson, who has been study
ing the new tariff bill for several
days and familiarizing himself with
many questions about which contro-
versy has been raised.
Other conferences which are to fol-
low with Mr.. Underwood and Senator
Simmons, chairman of the senate fl
nance committee, will settle the status
of the sugar, wool and agricultural
schedules, SO far as the party leaders
can settle them, and will decide
whether one general bill or separate
schedule bills shall be presented to
the house. The opponents of free su-
gar, chiefly representing the cane
growing sections of the south, have
made strong representations to the
proposed removal of all duty from that
product
Since his first conference with Mr..
Underwood, President Wilson had
gone over the tariff bill in immediate
detail with Secretary Redfied of the
department of commerce, for whose
tariff views he has a high regard.
General Questions.
1t was understood that few detail
ed rates were under consideration at
tonight's conference, but that the gen
eral questions as to the free admission
of raw materials, and the extent tG
which the duty should be removed
from agricultural products and art-
cles largely consumed by the public
were discussed fully.
Efforts to bring the senate and
house into accord before the details
of the new tariff bill became public
are to be made late this week. SEN
ater Simmons will ask democratic
members Of the senate finance com
mittee to meet Friday for a prelimi-
nary consideration of the tariff. AT
that time it is expected copy of the
bill prepared by the house ways and
means committee will be submitted tc
the democratic senators and consid-
cred in detail.
When the conference between Pres
ident Wilson and Representative I'm
derwood ended tonight the free sugar
plan and the. Is per cent tax on wool
We're hanging in the balance.
Mr.. Underwood upon leaving the
White. House would only vouchsaft
the information that some progress
had been made and that there We're nc
differences between the president and
himself, and that the majority of his
committee would meet again tomor-
row.
Hesitates.
| However, the fight against putting
| raw sugar on the free list and against
re tanning the duty on raw wool anc
| over some other parts of the tariff re-
! vision, is understood to have led the
president to hesitate in committing
| himself upon those matters until ht
has had an opportunity to obtain fur
ther light. He will confer over TIL,
tariff situation and within the mex
| 4 hours will communicate his view.
| finally to the ways and means com
mittee, which, meantime, virtually il
