myself and the leaders OF the Repub,
tican organization, especially Senator
Plat. There were, certain issues be.
tween us two. Plat was known as
the boss of the organization which
controlled the majority of the Re
publican members of the legislature,
who sometimes co-operated with the
Democrats. We were at odds prin-
cipally over legislative matters"

The witness added that he also
discussed executive action with Mr..
Barnes.
did you discuss the proposed fran
chise tax?' asked Mr.. Bowers. Roose-
welt answered yes.
What did Mr.. Barnes say about the
railway franchise tax?' Mr.. Bowers
asked. -.e.
Colonel Roosevelt continued:
AT one point in the conversation
the question arose as to who was in
terested in the bill. Mr.. Barnes said
there were large business interests
which had contributed to both parties
and were against the bill. In Albany
Mr.. Barnes said Robert Pruyn and
ANTHONY Brady, both interested in
rapid transit, were opposed to the, bill.
'Mr. Barnes told me the two men
contributed to both parties, not as a
matter Of politics, but as a matter of
business.
mir. Barnes also told me that IL we
didn't treat big business right and II
the Republican party became social.
istic the Democrats would get all the
contributions and the Republican
party none. / assured Mr.. Barnes I
did not want to injure any big bust

Mr.. Barnes that . special message
had sent to the legislature had been
torn up. In reply Mr.. Barnes said ]
was foolish to believe that the legis-
lature would do anything on SO i'm

been received from the organization"
Colonel Roosevelt named ]. P. Aids,
leader in the assembly, as the person
who had torn up the special message.
And" continued the witness. Mr..
Barnes and Speaker Nixon and Aids
would do nothing until they got their
orders"
Mr.. Barnes rested his case against
Colonel Roosevelt after only five min

Says Attack Was Dangerous.
Mr.. WINS in opening the case laid
especial stress on two points.
First, that not until Barnes opposed
him politically did the colonel ever
Rllude to him as a boss; second, that
Mr.. Roosevelt's tremendous import
ance made his attack upon Mr.. Barnes
far more dangerous than had it been
put out by another man.
The address was full OF elaborate
compliment to Roosevelt, to whom
WINS frequently bowed with great
difference.

eohemla's Lace Industry.

Bohemia's great industry, that of lace-making by hand. Is not shown by the returns of declared exports to this country for two reasons. In the first place the bulk of the laces is bought by the visitors at the various cures and personally carried home, and, secondly. those obtained by the representatives of the few large Ameri- can firms that annually send buyers there are for the most part shipped first to London, then from London to the United States, presumably that all possible secrecy may be thrown around the fact that supposedly real Belgian, French and Italian laces are, in truth, Bohemian, for, in addition to the typi- cal Bohemian faces, fine valenciennes, malines, cluny, etc. are produced, as are also fine Italian laces" which are shipped in large quantities to Italy for the tourist trade. Some of the finer Bohemian laces bring as high as $2OO yard. There are some 3O,0O0 per sons employed in this work, which is entirely a home industry and confined exclusively to the mountain districts Men, women and children all make laces; often children as young as six years are skilled workers.
