mean Bulgara's future removal as perpetual danger

The neutrality of both Rumania and Greece
are apparently but skin deep. Greece, in winking
at the landing of allies on her territory, ana Fu-
mania, in refusing the kaiser passage to turkey,
show which way they are popularity inclined.
Maybe the allies have learned that the goody-

Edward Greys explanation doesn't disarm those

ONE ON SECRETARY DANIELS
Head Of the Navy Evidently Not an
Expert as to the Odor Of
Alcoholic Liquors.

A story is going the rounds in
Washington about Secretary OF the
Navy Daniels which may or may not
reflect credit on that official. accord
ing to the point of view. According
to this story the secretary was one
morning comforting with an officer
and in the middle OF his conference
interrupted the proceedings to say:
This is the second morning that l
have smelled whisky on your breath,
sir!"
To which the officer is said to have
replied: II beg your pardon, Mr.. Sec
rotary, it was whisky yesterday, but
it is gin this morning"
No name has been allowed t. leak
out in connection with this story, and
it may be that there is more fiction
than fact in it.-Boston Transcript.

LAWYER FOR CIRCUIT
IN CROPSEY ATTACK
Says Kings District Attorney
Has Not Handled Case
in Right Way.
JURY HEARS SUMMING Up

Stephen C. Baldwin began summing
up for the defence yesterday afternoon
At the perjury trial OF ex-City Comp
troller Edward NJ Grout In Brookly n.
Referring to the fact that Mr.. Grout as
president closed the Union Bank on his
own initiative just two days after ne
had sworn to the alleged false report,
Mr.. Baldwin said.
'Can you believe that this defend
mi deliberately and wilfully. with full
his name to a document he knows to ne
false, then raises his hand to Almighty
God and swears that 1t Is true. and two
days later closes the bank himself?
do you believe that? Can you con-
ceive that II he knew he was going
20 close the bank all he had to do was
to stay away from the bank on the day
In question. when the report would
have been signed by some other off,
cisi. DO you think he would be fool
enough to sign 1t himself IL he knew
II was false anc that the bank must
close.
Pride =" cried Mr.. Baldwin. derldlng
the prosecutors claim that pride had
prompted Mr.. Grout in his acts. Who
would believe that any District Attor-
nsy, even this one, could conceive that
pride impelled him-a pride that lived
Ass than forty-e!ght hoursT'
Mr.. Baldwin said that the state
Banking Department was to blame for
the reopen,ng of the bank. not Edward
n. Grout. who had accepted the presi-
dency at the request of department off,
cials and against the advice OF his
friends and relatives because he re-
Garded II as a public duty.
Mr.. Baldwin was bitter In his criti-
cisms Of the conduct of District Attor-
ney Cropsey. He dwelt upon the fact
that thirteen items OF the original forty
eight have been stricken from the in
dictment and charged Mr.. Cropsey with
incompetence in having wasted a week
IN presenting evidence relating to them.
Clark Williams. who was super
i~ntendent OF the State Banking De-
partment when the Union Bank re-
opened with Mr.. Grout as president.
was called in rebuttal by Mr.. Cropsey
at the morning session. He testified
that he had no recnIection OF having
insisted that Mr.. Grout should he the
president OF the recognized Institution.
Mr.. Baldwin will go on with his sum-
ming up to-day.
