Continued from page 1

Means Committee. You know that Sen
ator Thompson. before the City Club
on Saturday. said that he was on the
threshold Of exposing corruption in
volving millions Of dollars. and that
the Governor was attempting to sup
press the committees work No such
ATTEMPT is being made by the Gov
ernor. and he has made no suggestions
to NE concerning this matter.
senator Thompson himself SAID a
short time ago that his committee was
about through with its labors. II his
committee can now show where 81 :
zoo 600. or even 100000. can be saved,
ve are willing 20 give him the chance.
All we want him 10 do IS 70 come be-
fore the Ways and Means Committee
end show what he wants the appropria'
tion for .,
A big change was also noticeable
around the executive Office in the atti-
tude toward the Thompson committee
controversy. Il became known after
the conference between the Governor
and the legislators that Governor
Whitman was Of the opinion that Sen
ator Thompson and his Investigators
should receive the money they desire
and that if an extension OF time Is
necessary. that also should be accord
ed The Governors friends made II
plain that he was anxious 20 help IN
every way possible to end the contro-

The temper Of the Assembly regard
ing Investigations was further empna-
sized tonight when Nh Fish's reso!u-
tion providing for an investigation OF
the Panama Fair Commission was
turned down. both the majority and
minority leader being against II.
Both Parties Against Inquiries.
There was no doubt that the oppo-
sition 20 investigations Of expenditures
was Of a non-partisan character. Tor
both sides would bc hurt. and there
was no disposition Of either to put its
head near the bUzzsaw.
Senator Thompson, after the ad-
adjournment Of the Senate, declared
that the result Of the issue would be
known bv the action OF the Assembly
tomorrow. He said he expected 10
have further conferences with Sena-
tor Brown and Senator Sage, but that
in no circumstance would he waVer n

he would hold sessions in New York
City on nc1t Thursday. Friday and

TRIED TO RUIN SHOW,

What everybody up and down Broad

the uplift of the "drammer" since Va

CURED yesterday afternoon. when Adele
Rowland, leading songster Of "Ka-
tinka," resigned from the cast because
u certain actor persisted in saying
Damn" in one Of his lines.
That is, Adele says she resigned, and
so does Sister Mabel. her press agent.
But not Arthur IIammersten. manager
Of the show, who sent Miss Rowland
this letter yesterday:
At last Saturdays matinee most
disgraceful attempt by you to ruin one
OF the best musical numbers in my
show forces me to notify you that your
services will be required no longer.
"Whatever differences you may have
had with Mr. T. Roy Barnes .enter the

Objected to Playful Kick.
II seems that not only did Miss
Rowland object TO the remark Damn
which one Of the actors calculated. but
there was a certain scene IN which one
male actor, said 20 be I. Roy Barnes,
leading comedian of the show, play
fully kicked another This, according
10 Miss Rowland, was the most vulgar
incident she had ever countenanced IN
all her eleven years OF stage expe-

a spirit of frolicsome youth, Mr.
Barnes frisked his heel aloft and Miss
