 Mails from the Medan.-The facts stated in the United States note are correct, except that it is not made clear, though it is the fact, that the neutral mail bags removed from the Medan were all sent on by Feb. 12, and that the 1S2 bags lost in the Macklenburg were without exception for enemy destination. American trade or correspondence with neutral countries was, therefore, affected by the loss of the Macklenburg, and the loss of the mails destined for enemy countries was due to the illegal sowing of mines with no military ob- ject by the enemy themselves.
 Charges Are Not Supported.
 "It will be seen that these specific complaints do not support the general charges against the efficiency of the British censorship which the govern ment of the United States have put forward in their note. His majesty's government will always be ready to explain in detail the working of the censorship, as there is nothing in re- gard to it which they desire to con- ceal. His majestys government de- sire to emphasize most strongly the act that they have had many in- stances of complaints against their censorship which on examination proved to arise from the wrong dtrec- tion of letters, the irregular sailing of neutral mail boats, such as the Dutch boats during the week following tho sinking of the Tubattia, and from other similar causes entirely outside the control of his majesty's govern ment and often directly due to the action of their enemies. They are obliged therefore, to disclaim respon- sibility for occurrences complained of until they have first been given the opportunity of Investigating such oc- in detail.

one of the spies, Enright held the underworld in awe because he was frequently seen riding in an automo- bile with Deputy Commissioner Lord.
 MT. Lord, however, emphatically denied that he had been in an auto mobile with Enright on more than two occasions.
 From one of the spys, Assistant District Attorney Smith obtained a. bit of evidence which showed how the collector operated. t was a note written on police department sta tiOnary, which the spy received from @ policeman, and which he used to display to disorderly housekeepers as sign of authority. All the collector would have to do, would be to show the heading which read Police De- partment' and the victim immed- lately appreciated the necessity of paying what was demanded of her.

Rome, July 25.-Pope Benedict has intcrceded in favor of Sir Roger Case ment, condemned to death on tho charge of treason, endeavOring to Ob tain grace for him from the British government. Influential Irish Nation alists have urged the pope to do all in his power to save Easement saying they do not consider him a traitor to the British cause but inspired in his actions by Irish patriotism.
 The pontiff, in addition to the in f1uence he is exercising in London, has interested Sir Henry Howard, the British minister to the vatican, in the case. The pope already has obtained from Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus trla grace for Cranak, leader of the Bohemian patriots. who was made a prisoner while fighting against Aus tria and condemned to be hanged.

C0SSACKS IN HUNGARY
Detachment of Russian Horsemen Crosses Border, Creates Panic and Makes Quick Withdrawal.

London, July 25.-A despatch to the Morning Post from Budapest dated July IS, says:
 Some Cossack attachments sue ceeded in crossing into Hungary yes terday, creating a panic throughout the frontier towns and villages and causing thousands of refugees to swarm down onto the plains. The Russians penetrated about 30 miles and then rapidly withdrew.
 Correspondents explain the panic of the DODulace by saying that 0 dozen COssacks are sufficient to frighten and put to flight a hundred thousand women and children"
 '"These refugees" continues the correspondent, "have greatly em- barrassed the local authorities who cannot supply them with acCOmmo- dations. Moreover they block the | road, hampering military transport | and holding up supplies. The refugees 1 are entirely without food.
 "JournaIists who have seen the 1 exodus in the BukOWina region say | that only the Serbian flight into Montenegro and Albania can be com pared to it. Everywhere are to be seen bodies of persons who died from ! exhaustion and often beside them the of horses"

GIRL CASHIER ARRESTED.
Alleged to Have Stolen $5,OOO From
 Lace Firm.

New York, July 25.-Miss Dorothy Barnholts of sos West 136th street, for three years assistant cashier and boOkkeeper for the lace firm of klau- Der Bros. & Co.,. of 867 Broadway, was arrested in the concerns offices yes- terday on a charge of stealing 5000.
 The alleged defalcations. which were spread over a considerable period, were uncovered the police say, by accountants who worked on the com pany's books during Miss Barnholtz's vacation this month.
 Miss Barnh oltz's father was once a wealthy leather importer of this city. After his retire ment the family went to- California about six years ago, and there they are said to have met with financial reverses. Three years ago the father died, and the family re- turned to this city. Miss Barnholtz obtained employment with Klauber Bros. & Go.
 Miss Barnholtz was arraigned in Jefferson Market court before Magls- trate McQuade and was held in $2,5OO bail for examination on Friday.

POLICE CHAPTERS
 GOT $45,OOO A YEAR
Spies Relate How They Worked in
 Vice District

New York, July 25.-With the extension of the inquiry into police graft yesterday, District Attorney Swann learned that about twenty dis orderly houses were permitted to thrive in the Tenderloin through tho payment of protection money to de- tectives and policemen in the district. According to the information received by the prosecutor from spies and others in the underworld grating has been going on for more than a year and a half, yielding the policemen during that period a total revenue of about S45,0OO. The personnel of the graft squad as revealed to the district attorney thus far includes the names of more than twelve policemen, two lieutenants, and possibly police of ficial still higher up in the depart ment.
 Five policemen who have already been indicted as the result of this investigation were arraigned before Judge Mulqueen in general sessions yesterday on a charge of bribery. were Detectives William J. Enright and David Foley of the Vice Squad and Patrolmen Arthur B. Dallas, Thomas l.. O'Brien. and Robert F. Goldman. All of them pleaded not guilty and were released, Enright and Foley in $6,OOO bail each and the other three in s2,5O0 bail each. The defendants were allowed until Aug. in which to change their plea and make any motions they might deem necessary.
 Police Commissioner Woods an- nounced that he would give the dis trict attorney his fullest cooperation ir wedding out of the department any policemen or officials who had accepted graft.
 Although admitting that he had the full cooperation of the police de- partment, District Attorney Swann said he could not understand how the police grafters could have pursued the methods they did without the know ledge of some one higher up. Up to the present time, he declared, the evidence of graft clustered entirely about one group of detectives who must have operated under the eye of some superior.
 Graft Never So Raw.
 "Of one thing I am convinced" the district attorney said. "graft was never so raw as it is now The only difference we can find lies entirely in the methods of collection.''
 Aside from the difficulties en- countered in the collection of evi- dence in such an inquiry, the district attorneys office is now confronted with the task of protecting it's wit nesses from threats and actual bodily harm. All of them are spys or men and women of such degraded char acter that they are constantly eX- posed to intimidation. Only yester- day one of the spys known as Red Levine" informed Assistant District Attoxxay Smith that he was clubbed

and beaten by three unidentified men
 on Sunday morning at Tenth street
 and Avenue A.
 He said he believed they are plain
 clothes men seeking to punish him
 for testifying. Notwithstanding the
 thorough beating of which he said
 he had received, Red" Levine as he
 told his story appeared to be in per
 feet health, with not a DrUise on his
 head or face.
 As for the attacks to have been
 made by plain clothesmen on two women witnesses, Police Commits sioner Woods said that one case had already proved to be without any fountHtion whatever. The other case, he said, was being investigated
 To insure the safety of witnesses while the investigation is in progress, District Attorney SWann has decided to put them in the House of Deten- tion or send them out of the city in the custody of detectives until their presence before the grand jury is re- Quired. The witnesses themselves aD- pear to be in constant fear of at tack. Lee Haipern, another spy. told Assistant District Attorney Smith that two men knocked on his door Sunday night and demanded instant admittance His wife told them ITai- perm was not in, but they remained at the door, pounding and pOunding and keeping Haipern, who was cud- died under a quilt, in fear for his life. Finally they went away, and he said he was certain they were plain clothesmen or spys seeking to "get 1 eVen."
 Among the persons who have given | the district attorney most of his in 1! formation in the present inquiry are 1 twelve mon who make their living by l vice. Although willing at one time 1 to collect tribute for the detectives, ! these men are now determined to tell 1 all they know about graft, it is said, l no matter whom it may hit Ac- 1 cording to their testimony each of 1 the twenty houses which composed l the graft group paid on the average of $125 for police protection. Every ! month a collector, usually some spy would make his rounds and collect the money for some detective who assigned him to this work.
 Many Thought ''F'ramed."
 Assistant District Attorney Smith has learned that a refusal to pay pro- lection money would invariably lead to a frame up" of some kind or oth- CT against the victim. MT. Smith is convinced that many women are terms in prison as the result of being unjustIy accused by detec- tives because they would not bribe them. This particular aspect of police intimidation will receive spe- cial attention from the prosecutor within the next two days.
 Much testimony was taken by MT. Smith in relation to the activity of Detectives Enright and Foley. Both of them were named in connection with the ball given at Arlington hall on April 10, which was attended by pickpOCkets disorderly housekeepers and gunmen. Enright was said to have given this ball for *he benefit of the Arlington Boat club an organization which, according to Assistant District Attorney Smith, eX- isted for that night only. The namo he declares, was a, mere cover under which Enright assembled around him the persons from whom he was al- lcged to have collected tribute. Later MT. Smith says, another name, the Arlington Bowling club,' was chosen for the same purpose. According to

prosecutions against the railroad
company under the Adamson eight
hour law. The court is asked to de-
clare that the eight-hour law is un-
constitutional and void.
The bill AYERS that the complaint is
advised that the requirements of the
Adamson act in respect to the wages
to be paid after next January /, is
legally invalid and imperative and
consequently not binding upon the
complainant because of the many
possible inconsistent and conflicting
interpretations of the act, and because
of the further fact that neither now
nor at the date of the passage of the
act, was there in existence any day.
whether measured by hours or work
done, that could be regarded as q
standard day, nor was there any
wage paid which could be regarded as
a standard wage for the employees en-
braced in the act.
1t is further averred that Congress
has no power to fix a standard day
or wage as the Adamson law attempts
to do. The law is further imperative
the bill says, because Congress has
not defined 'how or in what manner
the present standard days wage should
be ascertained and determined"
The act is unconstitutional, the bill
AYERS, because 1t seeks to deprive the
complainant as well as the employees
subject thereto of liberty of contract
in respect to the terms of employ
ment and the wages to be paid.

Brotherhoods Will Be
Defended in Suits by the
Department of Justice

Washington, Nov. 15. Attorney
General Gregory has decided that suits
by railroads against enforcement of
the Adamson eight-hour law will be
defended by the Department of JUS
tice. The defense to be presented in
each case will be worked out between
Solicitor General Davis and other de-
partment officials with United States
attorneys in various jurisdictions.
The Department to-day was unable
to determine whether 1t would be
necessary to defend each of the many
suits already begun or whether the
railroads would be content to make
test case of one suit. No word has
reached the attorney general from the
railroads suggesting such course and
if such a proposal is not made each
suit will be defended.
Reports that railroad and brother
hoods officials had considered sug-
gestion that Mr.. Gregory be asked to
suspend operation of the Adamson
law for thirty days were met with the
statement that the attorney general
has no such authority and that his
only course is to defend the suits or
let them go by default.

Be Permitted; Officers Or
dered to Make Arrests

Burgess Wigfield announced this

any loafers refuse to move on the off,
GERS are ordered to place them under

six Southern colored men to walk
down Front street in a row, making 1t
unpleasant for white women to pass"
Burgess Wigfield, said. II have been
told" he continued, that in some in
stances women have stepped into the
street until these crowds pass by.
This will rot be tolerated longer and
arrests will be made at once"
