10 IG PUBLIC benefactions great wealth are D coming along pretty fast This is remarkable country where such ardor at getting There is here lust for dollars feverish mercal activity that unavorable to impulses
 Perhaps the strongest motive working against gifts is the sentiment of family pride There is hereditary feeling tending to confne the succession of great patmony within bosom of one family This custom strong in Europe there are comparatively few of the great gifts that have ated the names of so American millonaires
 Benjamin Altman the prince has just made magnificent gifts to the City of New York; principal motive for the retention of his estate not exist Still he had nephews and nieces many of wealth would have petted bulk of such fortune
 No doubt Mr. Altman of the millonaires who learned that the best thing in their not the prize they gained but the fun of playing the their descendants to be self reliant fight their and enjoy the zest of struggle. Many them endowng people with fortune of tends to stifle manhood.
 But the majority of the kings still passing beyond

FINAL BRIEF FOR
 HARRY K. THAW
 IN HIS EXTRADITION

Concord, N. H., Nov. 3.-The final brief for Harry K. Thaw, in connec- ton with his efforts to resist his ex- tradition from New Hampshire to New York, was filed with Governor Felker today. The brief states that the in- dictment returned by the New York county grand jury, charging conspir- acy to escape from the Matteawan Asylum, does Lot charge a crime, be- cause an insane person could not be guilty of conspiracy if sane to such an extent as to be irresponsible for his acts while, if he was sufficiently men tally responsible to be guilty of the offense, he had a legal right to es- cape.
 "A person charged with breaking out of prison may show in defense of that charge that he was un1awfu1ly con fined in prison,'' the brief states.
 The brief further claims that the re- Quisition is not in accordance with the rules of practice adopted by the gov ernorB of the different states for ex- tradition so that the laws of New York have been violated in obtaining the in dictment and that the requisition Is not made in good faith.
 The activity of William Travers Jer- ome, special deputy attorney general ment and sis language at the hearings before Governor Fellzer are attacked in the brief which says:
 '@The language used is bullying and threatening and could be used for no other purpose than the silly thought to intinidate Your Excellency. This unusual and uncalled extravagant lan- guage indicates a personal, private purpose on the part of the special dep uty attorney general and is not con sistent with the simple, digniffed dis charge of public duty.''

RUSSIAN PREMIER BLAMED FOR SENSATIONAL
 TRIAL OF M. BAILESS

Berlin, Nov. 3.-The trial of Mandei Bai11ss, at Kiev, for the murder of Andrew Yushinsti, is ascribed to the former premier, Pierre A. Stolypin, in a letter signed "A Russian Ex-Pre- mier," appearing in today's Tageblatt, and generally believed to have been written by Count Sergius Julevitch Witte Stolypin, the writer asserts, endeavored to divert popular attention from breaches of the Russian constitu- tion and from non-fulfllment of the emperor's manifesto of 1905 by invent ing the modern nationa1ism" designed to rob all non Orthodox Russians and particularly those of the Jewish re- ligion, of their rights The instigators of the Bailiss accusation are, he says, insignificant individuals, former CO., workers with Sto1ypin. The writer answering a question whether the present premier, M Kokovsoff. could have prevented the trial but lacked the courage to do so, expressed the belief that Kokovson has been brought himself intt such a position that he can prevent nothing and can retire from office however and whenever his wishes to do so.
