stephen Jumel's New York City
house, on the northwest corner OF
Whitehall and Pearl Streets, was OF
yellow double brick, two stories in
height with dormer windows in the
roof. 1t is a coincidence that the
two famous mistresses OF the Nor
rts-Jumel Mansion, Mary Phillpse
and Betty Bowen, both went to the
house on Washington Heights from
Whitehall Street.
Jumel and his wife (also known
as Eliza Brown were first married
by a Protestant clergyman and
then at the old ST. Patricks Ca
thedral in Prince Street, New York
City, on April 9, 1904.
A James Carrol lived on the orie4-
nal farm Of the Jumel place for two
years, raising fruit and vegetables,
In the spring of 1865 he Offered the.
place for sale, the advertisementAI5 ll
pearing in the Post-Boy and Galnes's
Mercury.
In June II was withdrawn, and
this date marks the time OF the pur-
chase by Roger Morris and, an
proximately, the building of the
house, contraVening the widespread
statement that the mansion was
erected in 1858.
Roger Morris, born in England oh
Jan. %, 1927, was a captain in this
4Sth Foot, IN 1745, at the age az
eighteen. Ten years later he came
to America as aide-de- camp TO Gen,
BraddoclI, and was wounded on the
banks OF the Monongahela in July,
1855. -
Roger Morris served in a caRn-
palgn with his regiment In 1857 un-
der Lord Loudon, but returned 70
New York in July of that year. He,
was married on his birthday JAM
2s, 1853, at the manor house in Yon-'
kers. A month after his marriage
he purchased a Majors commission
IN the 25th British Foot and Rereads
with that regiment in Halifax.

To M. EdHnr Of The Evening World;
After reading your editorial en-
titled Bring Them to New York"
1 feel sure you have hit the nan ON
the head
I have constantly been a patron OF
n certain lunch room until few days
ago when ! found an increase in price
in three different items, namely mix,
10 cents per glass (half water); leg
of veal, 70 cents; soup Gas they call
~, is cents per half bowl. took the
bother OF counting just how many
spoonfuls of rice pudding were served
for 10 cents, and found after scraping
my dish clean, eight spoonfuls. Fruit
salad, is cents, probably one hair
| peach, one-third orange and two cher
ries. Then they have a specially en-
ployed man to see that the counter
men do not give too much.
1 believe II the Government would
round up these profiteers instead OF
enforcing prohibition and rounding up
slackers they would be doing more
good.
Probably there are others who can
verify my statements should they
sound unmerciful. A SUCKER.

How does Mr.. Hays explain this glaring contra
dicon between what he specifically declares to have
been Republican purpose since "early in 1910" and
what is on record as an avowed part of Republican
money-getting policy expressed IN the plainest of
terms last June1
Treasurer Upham asks the Senate Committee to
regard quotations from the Republican bulletins
'boys, get the money" "see the right people," "give
her the gas" step on it, and the like-as just
"salesmans stuff"
That is exactly the way most of the country al

TO tn BditoT Of Tue Evuntna World,
In The Evening World of Aug. 25 7
noticed that Chairman Hllly OF the
Mayors Rent Committee expects 10
OFFER a suggestion TO the Joint I,eVis-
latlve Committee on Housing which
In his opinion will solve the Question
OF rent profiteering.
Among other thinFs, Chairman
Hilly Is quoted as saying: 81 do NOT
believe that a tenant should he
evicted by a landlord that he NAV
lease TO another tenant at higher
rental, but l do believe that, II they
| move OF their own accord, the land :
lord should have the right TO get any
price he can for the apartment va
Gated" Very ingenious! Leave IL 10
the landlord to make US vacate OF our
own accord.
But the real niger IN the woodpile
Is his suggestion as to the procedure
necessary to arrive at the proper
| figure for rentals, which Is TO be
named by the court, and once fixed
! the tenant must nay or ''vacate the
| apartment forthwith"
Let us again quote his wordst 1.-THE
rent would be fixed by the court as
follows: The purchase price of the
| building, or It's assessed value In
event that was more than the pur-
chase price, would be established
The mortgage would be deducted and
the landlords equity thereby be

fixed" &C, &c Furthermore. his
suggestion would permit the landlord
ito make 10 per cent. plus 2 per cent
for depreciation on his equity"
His suggestion to use the purchase
price of the building as the basis OF
calculation Is indeed rich. Can you
imagine what the Bronx and Wash
ington Heights landlords would be
doing-in fact, have been doing
What would be the purchase price o.
dwelling house after the profiteers
had finished passing 1t around the
circle of wash sales?" 1 venture the
prediction that after being bought
and sold a half dozen times by fake
sales the landlord would be In po-
sition to welcome such law as Hllly
suggests.
Unless the jo1ers are eliminated
from the rent bills and legislation rs
enacted that will lift the crushing
burden we are laboring under-Wel,
Russia was once supposed to be an
ideal climate for Cars. &c.

"SALESMAN'S STUFF"

From the testimony Of
WiH II. Hays, Chairman
Of the Republican Ma
ttondI Committee, at
Mondays session Of the
Senatorial Committee IN
vcstiOGtinO ca mpGiOn
funds:
I'VE, Of course, well
come the opportunity
further fully to set forth
the effort OF the Repub-
lican National Commit
tee to popularize the
giving OF money for
campaign purposes by
getting small cOntrlbu-
lions from a great many
men and women rather
than large contributions
from a small number,
thus forever eliminating
any possible opportunl-
ty for sinister Influences
in nection with
money in politics.
This plan for the
raising Of money through
small contributions
grew out Of two primary
causes:
"(1) The real desire
TO work q real reform
In the elimination Of any
possible improper obi
cation.
"(2) Out Of the expert
ence in connection with
raising funds for war
purposes these popular
drives had become a IA
millar activity, and It
seemed possible at this
time to undertake that
kind Of action by a po-
litical organization. -"
The plan was pro-
posed early in 1919. l
think the first publica-
ton Of the idea was on
May Fl. 1919.
ut todS then the
purpose, aud u has since
been the purpose, to en-
deduor to limit the CON
tributionS to a maximum
Of a thousand dollars be-
fore the nominating con-
pention and a thousand
after. We hare all tried
to adhere to that plan. "
