No Secrecy
 About Payments
TIMOTHY E. sYRNEs TESTIFIED
 AT NEW HAVEN HEARING
MONEY LEGALLY SPENT
$2o,ooo Annually Paid J. Otis WardweII
 to Keep Management Advised of Financial Fight Against the System.

Washington, May 11.-Asserting that there was absolutely no secrecy about payments made by the New York. New Haven and Hartford railroad in the promotion of publicity and that the services of prominent lawyers were obtained at a high cost to help wage a campaign against financial interests that were fighting the road, Timothy E. Byrnes, formerly a vice president of the road. in charge of legislative matters and publicity, was the prin- cipal witness today when the Inter- state Commerce Commission resumed it's inquiry into the New Ravens fin ancial affairs.
 MT. Byrnes testified that J. Otis Wardwell of Boston received $12,OOO annually for several years and $20, 900 the last year of his employment by the road, to keep the management advised as to the trend of the financial fight on the New Haven and to give ad- wee as to how to effectually resist It. He said there was no desire or attempt to keep this under cover. The money was legitimately spent. he thought. He denied that any effort was made by him to influence legis- lation, or that payments for any such purpose were made through him. Charles H. Ennis. he said, was paid sS.ooO annually at first, and more later, for services similar to those rendered by MT. Wardwell.
 Mr. Byrnes testified. further, that several Boston periodicals had been paid considerable sums by the New Haven for advertising and that va rious newspaper men and others had been employed by the road to prepare publicity matter In this connection. 1t developed that MT. Byrnes' testi- mony was the same that he gave at the Investigation conducted several years ago by the Massachusetts Util- 1ues Commission. The inquiry will be continued tomorrow, when Mir. Byrnes will resume the stand.

LAUNCHING OF DEFIANCE,
 AMERlcA's CUP DEFENDER
Heartily cheered as She Slid Grace fully Into the Waters of the Ken nebec.

Bath, Maine, May 11.-No Yankee clipper ever made her pnitial plunge into the sea amid heartier cheers and good wishes than followed the cup defense candidate, Defiance as she slid gracefully into the Kennebec today. Within an hour after launching the second of the three American cup boats built this season had her mast on end and by the last of the week she will be ready for her work. Miss Frances Clark, daughter of D.
 Walter Clark of Philadelphia, treas urer of the syndicate, performed the t1me- honored christening ceremony, standing at the heel of the bowsprit and smashing the traditional bottle on the capstanhead. The yacht which had been built bow f1rst had started for the river and her forward underbody was already touching it when Miss Clark smote the shining brass winch. The wine spouted into her face and down the front of her blue sailor gown, but in the exhilaration of the moment it passed unheeded. She step ped back a bit to her father who stood in the forward companionway and with the booming of guns, the shrieks of whistles and the cheers of the mul- titude she felt the boat rush down and then ride the waves
 Amidship stood George M. Pynchon of Greenwich. Conn.,, the chairman of the syndicate and the yachts master Adlo III Iue COifuIlS races. D65lQc nlIn was Commodore Dallas B. Pratt of the New York Yacht club. Sitting at the oars of a rowboat in the slip was George Owen of Newton, the designer, while on the wharf and on excursion steamers. in fact at every point of vantage, were inhabitants of the old shipbuilding port, shouting and cheer ing.
 The crowd saw in the Defiance an able-bodied. powerful looking boat Her lines are longer than those of the ResoIute, which was launched two weeks ago. but her bilges are fuller and her keel more extended. Her top- sides are of polished mahogany and run up quite straight, but she has some sheer and & bow that is impress sive
 Unlike conditions which have pre- vailed atsthe launching of other de- lenders within the last twenty years, there was no secrecy about the pro ceedings today The Defiance rested on her cradle. just outside the boat shed all the forenoon. Thousands looked her over critically. and hun dreds of cameras were snapped at her.
 It is expected that the yacht will leave Bath on Saturday for Marble head where she will be inspected by the eight Boston members of the syn dicate.
 No effort will be made to test the sailing qualities of the yacht north of Cape Cod. After a day or two at Marblehead she will be lowed to Greenwich, Conn, where she will have permanent moorings off MT. Pynchon's house.
