MORGAN &C0. NOW READY TOPROSECUTE
Will Bring Action for Conspiracy
 to Take Private Information

New York May 26.-DiStrict Attor- that the office of J. P. Morgan & Go. would be ready within a few days to urge a criminal prosecution of per sons occupying the office of Seymour & Seymour" at 12O Broadway for con- spring to buy information relating to intuition contracts from a clerk in the Morgan firm. John D. Lindsay, an attorney for the Morgan concern, con- ferred with the. district attorney yes erday and informed him that for mai complaint against the accused persons would be filed as soon as Q, certain important witness could be found.
 That some action of this sort would be urged by the Morgan firm was in- timated to District Attorney SWann about a month ago-sho ortly after it was charged that William J. Burns had been spying on the Seymour of fee, by means of a detectaphOne. At a recent hearing before the Thompson Investigating committee it developed that Burns had been employed to do this by the Morgan firm, after it had been discovered that secret records in the Morgan office had been tam pered with. All the evidence seemed to indicate the existence of a grape vine route," whereby secret informa- tion concerning the purchase of am- munition for the French government by J. P. Morgan & Co.,, was illegally obtained from the Morgan firm and sold to intuition manufacturers.
 After Investigating the matter from various angles, Burns suspicious set tied upon the office of Seymour & Seymour, in the Equitable building Not only. did he install a detectaphone in the Seymour office, but he also in vaded the premises, it was said, and obtained what he believed to be let ter heads of the Seymour firm on which had been written copies of the orders that Morgan & Go. had received from the French minister of finance, as well as statement of the amounts which the Morgan firm was willing to pay for munitions.
 Police Take Hand. Aside from the operations of the 1 Burns agency the police also under 1 took an inVestiga ation, and actually
 tapped the wires of the Seymour of flee The evidence obtained by the ! police, Deputy Commissioner Lord who had charge of the wiretapping g [ said, was of a nature to make him | different to any complaint that might
 be made either by Frederick Seymour

When the very young artist first e.

possible doubt as to his intentions he
will scrawl in childish letters below the
picture "This is Dog
We have the picture in this state of AL
animal with head, body, legs-and an
''auxilliary" tail, but these artists have.
labelled their production. "This is not
an ANIMAL" They are like the man who
was SO astounded at the firt hippopota-
mus that he saw in menagerie that he
ran outside, shouting "There amt no
such animal"
We have with us an organized body of
men. with leaders, with state, district
and township organization, with thou
sands of dollars of capital, with new
paper, with promoters and speakers.
These hold secret caucuses, elect dele
gates, hold conventions nominate legisla-
tive and state tickets-and it IS only
"league" and not a political party.
In other words 1t is just like political
party-but it isn't.
And this month when the assessor goes
around, the men who have paid nine dol
lars each to create "league" with which
to destroy the republican and democra-
tic parties, are told by the leaders to re-
gister as republican and democrats as
usual. and to vote as such at the priu,-
aries.
