SULLIVAN DENIES V|CK'S
CHARGES AGAINST HIM
Statement From American Minister
to Dominican Republic Read at
at Phclun Hearing.
MAKES NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Declares lie Was Made Victim OF
Newspaper Campaign of Attack.
Offers Documentary Evidence in
Support of His Defense.

NEW YORK. January ga state
mcnt from James NJ. Sullivan, Amcri-
can minister To the Dominican Repub-
lie, denying all the charges OF unfit
ness made against him, chiefly by
walker w. Wick, former receiver gen
crh OF SantO Domingo customs. was
read to-day at the hearing into the
charges before Senator Elect Phclan.
The statement was supported by
documentary evidence and made coun-
terchnrgcs against Wick. Sullivan de-
clhred he had been made the victim of
II newspaper campaign of attack 10y
Nick. and said certain newspapers IN
the United States had 'championcd the
cause or ms audncioiis n gang of pirates
as ever sailed the Caribbean"
sullivan said he had no apology TO
make for recommending MS the de-
poSitory for tho rcceivcrship funds the
Bnnco Nacional. which Wick charges
was AN untrustworthy institution. and
which had been accused OF seeking the
appointment of sullivan in order to
cNplout the island.
IF Wick was unwilling to make the
change. lie scarcely would have acted
on my recommendations wrote the
minister. The fact Is that the desire
TO make further change was born in
Wick some months later, for reasons
best known 20 himself. and in the cam
paiGn he then opened ON the Banco

Walter H. Light, for twelve years a
resident of Cape Girardeau, was buried
yesterday in the City Cemetery at
Englewood, Calf, where he died Tues
day afternoon, of cancer of the stom-
ach. A message was received in the
Cape yesterday by William Franz, a
brother-in-law of Light, stating that
the funeral took place there yester-
day.
Light, who had suffered from the
malady for more than a year, had
been confined to his bed for the past
five weeks. A letter received a few
days ago by Mrs. Franz from her sis
ter, stated that Mr.. Light was gradu-
ally growing weaker. The news Of
his death came yesterday with the
announcement that he was buried.
He formerly was a saloon man in
this city. He married Miss Minnie
Ruch of Friedheim, whose parents are
now dead. Light moved to California
two years ago Christmas for the bene
fit of Mrs. Lights health. The climate
proved beneficial to her, and he be-
came i'll following the restoration Of
her health, and began to decline.

influential men from Dallas, Texas,

ST. Louis promised to raise 100000,

the Democratic party, would be classed
as doubtful. We are delighted at the
result"
Rolla Wells, of st. Louis, who is
treasurer of the National Committee,
used his influence to win the conven-

LADIES BANQUET
KNIGHTS OF LODGE
"Picnic Dinner" FOll0wsInitiatiOn
CermOny in Security Order
Juden GOrged.

The Knights and Ladies of Security
held an enthusiastic meeting at the
lodge rooms in the Vandeven hall, last
night, at the conclusion of which the
ladies served a picnic lunch.
The "picnic lunch" belongs exclu-
Sively to the Knights and Ladies of Sc
curity, according to Tom j. Juden, the
organizations official head. The
ladies of the lodge each prepared a
box of food at their homes and this
was served in picnic fashion at the
lodge
Picnic fashion simply means that
instead of using napkins as blotters
and forks and knives, the men and
ladies alike, take charge of a drum
stick with their hands. This style was
originated by the old-time Methodist
preacher. BY getting familiar with
fried chicken, it is said, the meat
tastes better and the flavor fingers
longer than if it is consumed after
being picked to pieces with knife and
fork.
At the "picnic feasts" which the
knights and Ladies of Security give,
handkerchiefs take the place of nap
kins, because real napkins and picnic
are not on speaking terms.
According to Mr.. Juden, the ladies
opened the boxes of food before the
whole lodge, and while saliva almost
strangled the male members, the ladies
distributed the food. 1t was not
case of presenting full-grown man
with a ham sandwich and remarking:
''When you eat that you're through"
Mr.. Juden informed The Tribune. eve

VASTERLINC PLAYS
IN UNIQUE LUCK
Plans Trip To st. Louis and Has
His Expenses Wired as
Starts.

A. c. Vasterling, fire insurance and
bonding man, yesterday had fortune
smile upon him in a unique fashion
such as seldom befalls a busy busienss
man.
Mr.. Vasterling had planned to go to
st. Louis on two or three day trip.
He had mapped out several things that
he wished to attend to in the Mound
City and decided that yesterday after
noon was the time for him to leave.
He forthwith packed his bag, threw
his overcoat over his arm and went
to his office prepared to take the train
to st. Louis in the afternoon.
Shortly after hi sarrival in his office,
he received a wire from st. Louis tell
ing him about as follows: "Come to
St. Louis at once for tete-atete with
Mr.. Bland-all on our expenses.
Stephen A. Martin, state agent for the
United States Fidelity & Guarantee
Co."
Mr. John r. Bland of Baltimore, is
president of the bonding company that
Mr.. Martin represents from st. Louis
and that Mr.. Vasterling represents in
the Cape. Mr.. Bland invited Mr. Vas
terling to journey to st. Louis for
dinner party at the Planters Hotel last
night.
The only hitch in the procedure, Mr..
