 SOME OF LAWsoN's CHARGES

New York, Jan. 2s.-Some of the most sensational charges Thomas w. Lawson made in testifying recently in the house rules committee Teak" in vestdgation were vehemently denied to- day by Pliny Fisk and Archibald $. White. two widely known New York flnanciers, when they appeared here before the congressional inquisitors-
 Fisk, named by Lawson as the bank CT member of an alleged trio composed of a cabinet member, Secretary Mo- Adoo, a member of congress, known as Senator O." and banker who had a Joint account in Wall Street, de- clared emphatically that no such com bination ever existed.
 White, who was declared by Lawson to have told him that Fisk had boasted to him that he controlled Secretary McAdoo and had offered to call the secretary from his bed by telephone at 1880 o'clock in the morning to prove his assertion, insisted that Lawson was Hromancing"

"FRAME UP" CLAIMED BY
 FREDERICK A. WENCK
In Charges Preferred Against Him by
 Boxing Promoters.

Albany, N. Y., Jan. 29.-The defense that he was the victim of a frame up' was made today by Fredertck A. Wenck, cha irnan of the state ath l. letic commission, at a public hearing of charges of attempted extortion pre- ferred against him by three New York boxing promoters The hearing, which was begun late today before Franklin B. Lord, a special commits sioner appointed by Governor Whit man, was adjourned tonight with MT. Wenck's testimony not concluded. Sessions will be resumed tomorrow morning.
 The promoters, Harry M. Pollok, who was one of the states witnesses in the Rosenthal murder case in New York; Patrick T. Powers and John MT. Pollok and Mir. Powers testified for the complainants- MT. Pollok was the principal witness.
 He declared that on November 21, cerning an effort to obtain a license for a. boxing exhibition to be held in Madison Square Garden At that meeting, he said, MT. Wenck at first the garden was illegal and later de- manded $1,000 to give his permission for the granting of the license. Pollok testified that he gave Wenck a post dated check for $1oo. because Wenck told him he was terribly hard up." Payment of the check was stopped by Pollok, the witness said.
 Wenck testified that he had told Pollok the lease was illegal and that subseq uently Pollok declared Eff we don't get this license we'll get you"
 The lease was submitted to Deputy Attorney General Leonard J. Ober- meir. who also declared it illegal ac- cording to the testimony. Later how ever, Oberneir ruled that the lease was all right.
 Wenck declared that the hundred dollar check which Pollok gave him was in part payment of a bill of $500 which Pollok owed him for publicity work before he became boxing com missioner.

over acts or by laws or govern mental regulations that discriminate against the alien or the race to which he belongs because of his religious faith.
 Such a provision, SO applied and administered, would Oblige the officer concerned in effect to pass judgment upon the laws and practices of a for eign government and declare they did or did not constitute religious persecu- tions. This would. to say the least be most inVidious function for any ad- ministrative officer of this government to perform and 1t is not only possible but probable that very serious ques- tions of international justice and com ity would arise between this govern ment and the government or govern ments thus officially condemned should it's exercise be adopted.
 T dare say that these consequences were not in the minds Of the propou- ents of this provision. but the provision separately and in Itself renders it un- wise for me to give my assent to this legislation in its present form"

$500, 900 FIRE IN DRY
 GOODS DISTRICT or HARTFORD
G. Fox & Go. and the Wooiworth and
 10 Gent Stores Destroyed.

Hartford, Conn.,, Jan. 30.-Two large stores in the dry goods district, G. Fox & Co. and the Woolworth 5 and 10 cent store, were destroyed early to- day by a fire which threatened at one time to sweep through the business center of the city. Early estimates by the proprietors of the stores placed the total loss at upwards of $500, 900.
 The origin of the blaze is not known. It started in the basement of the Fox store in Main street and spread rapid ly through that structure and then to the Woolworth store adjoining.
 The fire was discovered shortly be- fore midnight and apparently had gained considerable headway before the alarm was turned in. Two and three alarms brought out all the fire fighting apparatus in the city,
 Within an hour after the first alarm had been sounded the roof of the Fox building collapsed and the flames shot skyward, Illuminating the surrounding country for several miles. For a time it appeared as though the large depart ment store of Brown, Thomson & Co., would catch fire, but the firemen after desperate fight succeeded in con- lining the flames to the two stores
 The police are Investigating rumors of incendiarism. Recently there have been numerous fires in the city and on one occasion there were nine fires in basements within four hours

Washington, Jan. 29.-Alfredo Con gales, deposed president of Costa Rica, has sent an appeal to the United states government for intervention. He is now in the American legation at San Jose, where his former minister Of war. Federico Tinoco has installed himself as provisional president after a revolution that was brought to a trinmphal conclusion twelve hours after It was begun. without bloodshed
 Word that the ex-preSident had sub mlCted hlS appeal to the American min lster was received here in a private message and late tonight the state de- partment had not been advised off, cially of the development
 Official and unofficial reports of the overthrow of the Gonzales administra- ton, while throwing virtually no light on the causes, afford little ground for the belief that the United States will interfere. The revolutionistS killed no one, and according to reports received by representatives of interests in. that country and the developments. was the cuIm1nat1on of a popular demand State department advices today said the capital and countryside were quiet. and that business, official and other wise, was proceeding with much the same routine as it had before the coup d'etat was made.
 If disorders follow and if there is reported any danger to foreigners a warsAip will be sent to Costa Rican waters.

! Washington, Jan. 29.-PresideIit Will son today vetoed the immigration bill passed recently by congress. because Of it's literacy test provision
 It was the second time that Presi- dent Wilson had vetoed an immigra- tion bill because of the literaCy test and for the same reason similar meas ures were given vetoes by Presidents Taft and Cleveland.
 The presidents veto message to the house, in which the bill originated, fol- lows:
 Veto Message.
 T very much regret to return this bill without my signature.
 'Tn most of the provisions of the bill I should be very glad to concur but I cannot rid myself of the conviction that the literacy test constitutes a rad ical change in the policy of the nation which is not justified in principle. It is not a test of character, of quality or of personal fitness, but would operate in mo.t cases merely as a penalty for lack of opportunity in the country from which the- alien seeking admis- sion came. The opportunity to gain an education is in many cases one of the chief opportunities sought by the inn migrant in coming to the United States and our experience in the past has not been that the illiterate immigrant is as such an undesirable immigrant. Tests of quality and of purpose cannot be objected to on principle, but tests of opportunity surely may be.
 Moreover, even if this test might be equitably insisted on, one of the ex- captions proposed to it's application in- wolves provision which might lead to very delicate and hazardous diplomatic situations.
 "The bill exen1pts from the operation of the literacy test all aliens who shall prove to the satisfaction of the proper immigration officer or to the secretary of lafNor that they are seeking admis- sion S) the United States to avoid re- ligious persecution in the country of their last permanent residence, wheth- CT such persecution be evidenced by
