SENATOR TELLS WHY
 LETTER WAS SENT

"The purpose of those seven mem bers of the Alaska Territorial Senate who wrote the letter to Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane, which has been discussed in Congress and by various Alaska newspapers, should be apparent to anyone who reads the let ter" said one of the Senators in dis cussing the matter. "First we desired that it bs, known that our support of a government railroad in Alaska was not the support of those who were try ing to inject the prlciple of govern ment ownership of public utilities in- to the American system of government. In other words, we desired that 1t be known that we were for the govern ment railroad in Alaska for the sake of the railroad and not for the sake of the principle involved.
 Next, we did not desire to be placed in position of taking snap judgment on the administration. While the Sec retary of the Interior and other mem bers of the administration had an nounced their support of a government railroad, they had not yet worked out the administration plans when we had passed the memorial and resolutions endorsing a government road. It struck us that 1t would be good plan to make it plain to the Secretary of the Interior that We regard trans portatlon the key to the situation in Alaska, and that we were prepared to give support to any plan or system that will result in the immediate con struction of trunk-line railroads in AL aska that the administration might work out.
 "That is all there is to the whole matter. The letter itself should make this plain to anybody All We can ask is that people read the letter and make up their own minds"
 rho LSIIST ASdlU'
 By request The Empire produces the letter for the third time. Dated at Ju- neau. April IS, 1913, signed by sena- tors Ray, Bruner Willard, Breeding, Tripp, Tanner and Roden, and ad- dressed to the Secretary of the Inter- for, it follows:
 Sir: We are informed that it is a general opinion prevalent at Washing ton that the people of Alaska are u- unanimously in favor of a Federal Gov ernment owned, constructed and op- erated railroad in Alaska.
 "The majority of the people, in our opinion, are opposed to the principle of Government ownership.
 Ut is true, however, that in order to prevent the depopulatiou of Alaska We are in favor of any plaa or system that will result in the immediate con. struction of trunk,line railroads in Al aska. as an imperative necessity to the development of our vast mineral resources and extensive coal fields.
 We consider transportation the key to the present situation in Alas ka."

Mrs. Carman and Elizabeth.
Mrs. COnklin said that, after she
heard 1.-THE noise" on the night of June
30 she went TO all the doors Of the
house and looked out to see whether
she could see anything or any one.
Then she went upstairs into her
daughters room, and there found Mrs
Carman, Elizabeth and Mrs. Powell,
Mrs. Carman's sister.
The bed was all disordered, as if
some one had just got out of it." she
said.
When Mrs. Conkl;n LETT the stand
Mrs. Carman's sister, Mrs. Ida Powell,
was sworn. Her story was almost
word for word a cOrroboration of the
testimony Of Mrs. Carman. Mrs. Conk-
lir and Elizabeth Carman.
Mrs. Powell said she let two women
out OF the front door. The nightlatch
snapped, shutting her out, she said, but
she went around the side of the house
and entered the waiting room door.
She didn't see Farrell, she said, al
though she was on the front steps less
than a minute after she heard the re-
port of revolver.
The witness denied that she had seen
Celia Coleman in the doctors Office that
night. Celia had testified that she saw
Mrs. Powell there the first time she
followed Mrs. Carman TO the Office.
When Mrs. Powell was excused,
George Colder, who had testified for
the state, was called by the defence

TO SING SING
No Clemency Shown Default
ing Supervisor of East
Chester.

Henry c. Merritt, former Supervisor
of East Chester, and political ally OF
Deputy State Controller Michael J.
Walsh, Murphy's Westchester County
boss, was sentenced in White Plains
yesterday to three years and six
months in Sing Sing Prison for steal
ing 1927, 900 from the town.
Merritt, who was Tammany road
contractor with John L. Hayes, Demo-
cratic candidate for Assemblyman in
Yonkers, was president Of the Merritt
Construction Company. After his short
ages were discovered by Supervisor
Close a year ago he disappeared,
Deputy Controller Walsh, acting IN
Controller Sohmer's absence, sent in
examiners to go over Merritt's books.
After some delay the report made pub
lie showed shortages of about 100000.
But the town had o. G.. Cartwright,
auditor Of the Westehester County Re-
search Bureau, 90 over the books again,
and he found defalcations of 1927 900.
Merritt fed when his thefts were
barred. and his family made a hint OF
suicide, but early in January he sur
rendered to District Attorney Weeks.
He fought for delay, but the prosecu-
ton finally forced him to plead guilty
and leave his fate in the hands Of the
court

Her ten-year-old daughter, Elizabeth,
was the next witness. In a childish
treble she gave her version of what
had happened in the Carman house
hold the night of the murder. After
dinner, she said, she had gone out
and played on the lawn.
Mother went upstairs" she contln-
ued, replying to questions. My aunt

Great Britain, which, according TO to-
days figures, ls approximately $780,.

be able 20 take care Of It's obligations
through the shipment of cotton to
Great Britain, but because Of the low
price OF cotton caused by the war
Americas ability to pay its debts with

une. Sir George Paish has suggested
that 500, 900 900 of the indebtedness be
paid at once and s60,000,000 taken In
cotton, the remaining si00,0O0,000 70
be payable in six months.
Good Bargain for British.
Sir George, Il is understood, sug-
gested that with 100000 900 laid over
for a short period England would be-
gin to purchase cotton in normal guam
titles, and thus help reduce this in
debtedness. American bankers, IL was
said, contended that under those CIR
cumstances Great Britain would get
very much the best Of the bargain, Ia

cial commissioner under the executive
law. which gives the Governor power
at any time to appoint any person to
examine and investigate the conduct
and the affairs of the Prison Depart
ment.
District Attorney Cropsey, it was
learned, upon The Tribune's first pub
LEGATION of the story Of the automo-
bile rides being enjoyed by Sullivan,
wrote to Warden Mccormick, asking
that the facts in the case be forward
ed to him. The District Attorney also
asked to be informed of the exact
nature of Sullivan's duties at Sing
Sing. Up TO last night Warden Nc
Cormiek had not replied to the let
ter.
After the District Attorney had sub
pnnaed several persons with intimate
knowledge of Sullivans movements
outside of the prison walls, it will be
decided what step to take next.
Other COnvicts Sighted.
Injuries about Ossining yesterday
failed - find any attaches of Sing Sing
prison or others familiar with its
affairs who ever saw any convict other
than Sullivan out riding in Warden
McCOrmlckS autOmOOlle.
Superintendent Riley, who tried to
spread the impression that other con-
victs are being trained to operate it.,
Just as we'll as Sullivan, also tried TO
make il appear that Sullivan's outings
in the automobile were for prison pur-
30 es. In Ossining, however, the viii
lage folk are laughing and asking what
mature Of business Sing Sing has with
hotel barrooms along Broadway.
Sullivan, they are informed, has been
seen or occasions in the Zine of least
resistance" in the barroOm of the Getty
House, in Yonkers, waiting for the
warden, who, being one Of Deputy Con-
troller Walsh's district leaders in Yon-
kers, had business with politicians else
where.
Police authorities in some of the
places the car of mystery visits be-
tween Ossining and New York City
question the legal right of convict to
operate car. and are threatening to
arrest the ex-banker il they find him

supposed to be locked up, he isn't wor-
ried q bit over their threats.

but saw nothing He was sure the
door between the pantry and the
office was locked.
On cross.examination District At
torney Smith asked whether u was
true that he had moro women patients
than men. He denied this.
Or. Carman said he was looking nj
his watch when the window was
broken. IL was $500 o'clock
lie denied he had ever told the
grand jury he had his hand on Mrs:
BaiIey's shoulder. MIR. Smith read
testimony to this effect from the
grand Jury minutes. DIR. Carman said
the stenographer must have made
mistake. =.
DIR. Carman. when asked II he had
ever seen Mrs. Bailey before she
called at his Office on the night oil
the murder, testified:
81 think she was in my Office the
night before"
This was the first time DIR. Carman
had indicated that he had seen Mrs.
Bailey before the night OF the MUIR
der.
District Attorney Smith then read
the minutes Of the grand jury and
the inquest to show that DR.. Carman
said at one time that IL was 7:4b
o'clock when the shot was fired. and at
another time he said 1920
DR.. Carman was questioned closely
about the times that he telephoned
DR.. William Runcie, police head
quarters and Coroner Morton. Hs
was asked also about the strange man
in his Office, the man who said that
he was coming back, but did not do so.
"What did this man who came into
your Office do?" Mr.. Smith asked
"He shook hands with me and
said he had come one whom he wanted
me to see."
Odd he slap you on the back?
A.-No.
Mr.. Smith then read from the grand
jury records, in which DR.. Carman said
the man had slapped him on the back.
Q.-Who was the man? Al don't
know. had seen him somewhere
before.
Odd you ever take the trouble
to find out who that man was? A
Yes, | tried to find him. | saw him
one day and told the Assistant Dis
trict Attorney about it.
Q.-D0 you remember that sent
men 20 look over your books and that
you refused 10 allow Inem 10 loOh NJ
them? A.-No, don't remember
that
In regard to the two women who
were mentioned In the testimony
the two Mrs. Powell allowed 70 go
out of the house-Dr. Carman said
he had made some effort to learn their
Identifies, but that he had been un-
successful.
DR.. Carman said Policeman Cozzens
was mistaken when he testified that 1t
was after 8 o'clock when DR.. Carman
telepboned to headquarters.
Cozzens was on the desk at police
headquarters in Freeport on the night
of June 80. The doctor said that Mrs.
Bailey had paid him for his services
before she was shot. He also said he
locked all the doors in his Office except
the one in the waiting room before
Mrs. Bailey came in.
"How long ago was it that you first
found out your wife was suspicious"
he was asked.

questions about dance he attended

by Assistant District Attorney Gold
stein. Not only did he learn of persons
who haG seen the gray haired Brook
Ign banker, attired in a gray summer
suit, not of prison cut or pattern, driy-
ing with the Warden, but he learned of
persons who had actually talked 70 Sui
Ivan on more than one occasion.
A gathering at a roadhOuse at Har-
mon, above Ossining, at which Sullivan
was present, it was said, involves more
than one man high in the councils of
Tammany Hall, as we'll ss q prominent
Manhattan lawyer.
A thorough investigation of Sing
Sing prison as well as the fling Of
charges against the Warden and the
State Superintendent of Prisons is what
the District Attorneys Office may be
called upon by the irate depositors TO
do. How far the matter will be carried
could not be ascertained. The words of
Assistant District Attorney GolGstein
were significant, however, when he said
yesterday:
This is a most unusual case, as well
as one of grave Importance. This office
will not rest until it has penetrated to
the very bottom of the matter"
Justice Frederick Z. Crane, of the
Supreme Court Of Kings County, who
sentenced Sullivan to Sing Sing, has
been interested in the matter. Depos-
itOrs are under the belief that he may
have jurisdiction to investigate into the
conduct at Sing Sing concerning the
manner in which the sentence he i'm
posed is being carried out.
With that end in view, depositors last
night said that every scrap of evidence
that the best obtainable legal talent
could assemble would be placed at Jus
tice Cranes disposal. IL was undecided.
however, whether they would do that
or file formal petition with Governor
Glynn.
In that event they would ask that
