sioner Edward P. Mulrooney te Hay off' the search for Russel T. Sherwood, Walkers long missing financial agent.
 The governor called walker once more to the stand. to continue his questioning into Sherwood's disap. pearance.
 The governors first question was directed to what action, if any Charles F. Kerrigan, the mayors assistant had taken regarding Sherwood's disappearance.
 "He told me he had some con- yersation with the (Hofstadter in- yestigating) committee,s the mayor said. 1T told him he should not have done that"
 The mayor was temporarily ex- cused from the stand, while the governor called Schurman and swore him as a witness.
 "Did you, on or after August if 1881. have any conversation with Kerrigan concerning sher- wood ?" the governor asked.
 Over the objections of John J. Curtin, Walkers chief counsel. Schurman told how he had talked to Kerrigan, told him pthe com mittee is anxious to get Sherwood and was informed that Kerrigan had recently seen the missing financial agent.
 q knew the mayor did not ex- pect you to find Sherwood" the witness swore Kerrigan told him.
 Several days later, he continued, Judge Seabury called Kerrigan and told hgm that in view of the inaDil- ity to find Sherwood. a committee subpoena would be issued.
 ibid you talk to Kerrigan after ward Schurman was asked.
 "I did not,p he replied.
 Curtin. after brief cross-ex- animation of the witness regarding his duties during the New York city investigation, embarked upon a long legal argument over the admissibility of a letter written to Walker by Judge Sheabury and in- ouiring into the mayors financial relations with Sherwood.
 The letter was finally asked for .a, that the letter and Walkers reply pc duI1IlLeu III CNAunSN' then read the Seabury letter, wnicn requested the mayor to furnish the Hofstadter committee a list or his banks and brokerage firms. and a statement of the securities he had acquired.
 The letters were admitted, and Curtin resumed his cross-examina- ton of Schurman.
 Have you any idea" Curtin asked with infinite sarcasm. where the newspapers got the informa- ton the mayors accounts were be- ing investigated?"
 ''I have not" Schurman replied.
 Curtin was striving. for the mo- ment to draw from Schurman an admission that Walker had offered no obstacle to the proceedings of the Hofstadtcr committee. and that the mayor, had actually discussed the advisability of postponing a trip to Europe in order to assist.
 q have no recollection on that phase" Schurman insisted.
 "You discovered the money In the Federation bank. was Walkers own money. didn't you" Curtin asked. M
 T presume 1t was" schufman answered.
 "None of the funds in the Fed eration bank were traced to Sher- wood. were they?" Curtin persisted.
 q do not know what you mean" the witness parried.

New York Governor
 Stealing The Show
(Continued from Page 1)

l5 allegations against Mayor James J. Walker remained unanswered as the fifth session of the custer hear ing before Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt was called for II a. m today.
 That fact, however. did not mean the proceedings were near an end as witnesses designated by the mayor still were to be heard as were charges of inefficiency in of- flee made by a group headed by James E. Finnegan. Indications were the hearing would continue through Friday.
 Tuesdays questions by the gov ernor probably will include that charge that the mayors brother. Dr William H. Walker, increased his bank accounts with fees he split with a group-of physicians desig- hated by the city to treat city em- ployes injured in line of duty.
 The other two Seabury allega- tions were that the mayors testi- mony before the Hofstadter com mittee neither was frank nor truthful and that his conduct in general was such as to make him unfit to continue in office.
 Names of the witnesses the Walker defense intends to summon may be known today for in closing arguments yesterday Roosevelt re- fused to issue blank subpoenas, as asked by John J. Curtin. Walkers attorney.
 Roosevelt's aggressive question ing of Walker yesterday as to the eft o oyfn nfn kra at fHv np the missing Russell T. Sherwood lent new note to the proceedings.
 Seabury charged Sherwood was acting as Walkers personal agent but that charge was not stressed as much as was the mayors part in dealing with his disappearance.
 Walker argued there was no necessity for him to find Sherwood.
 T had no reason to believe he would disobey the subpoena" Walker told the governor.
 So you just let 1t rider" Roose- welt asked.
 Well. now. your excellency nfay 1t as you will, but there were forces of law behind 1t. and there was my desire to have him, and I would so much rather he were here today: then I wouldn't have to spend so much time on inferences or innuendo."
 "I wish he were here today" the governor responded.
 Another outstanding develop ment of the day was the revelation by Walker that the unidentified person for whom Sherwood bought a $10.000 letter of credit was a woman. Walkers counsel urged the governor to name the person. but Roosevelt refused.

ORx thc united Pressl

to-day expressed their sympathy and agreement with the Lindbergfl
 family's appeal for privacy and less publicity for their family, but denied that publicity was in a large measure responsible for the death of the first born"
 Their denials were in connection with the appeal addressed to news papers by Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh last night in which he said 1t is impossible for us to sub ject the life of our second son to the publicity which we feel was in a large measure responsible for the death of our first"
 1 "The appeal comes from hearts that have been crushed by mcrci- i less experience the like of which has not been suffered by indlvid- | uals within the memory of living man." JameAG. Stahlman, publish CT of the Nashville banner, Nash vile. Tenn, and president of the Southern Newspaper Publishers association, said.
 II can not agree that publicity was in a large measure responsible for the death of the first born nor do I believe the father and mother can hope to escape the sunlight of publicity which shines on all who have become world figures? T am of the opinion that they have been pestered by certain sec- tions of the press, and I am in ac- cord with their plea that their children be allowed the privilege of growing up normally as other American children.
 Certainly the Lindberghs. have earned the right to rear their chill dren in an atmosphere of tranquil simplicity and dignity such as has characterized their own private lives.
 Should father or mother appear in the limelight, of course they must expect to be treated as other public characters in the news, but until their children become prom inent by virtue of their own efforts they should be accorded the same rights as those enjoyed by dlher normal. healthy children of more obscure percentage.
 By all means leave the Lind- berghs with their loved one on their mountain top in their new found happiness and in that peace to which even a cruel and news hungry world would not deny that they are entitled"
 Publishers generally agreed with Stahlman's views
 w. Verne Mckinney, president of the Oregon State Editorial as- sociatien. and publisher of the Hillsboro, Ore, Argus, said:
 Less attention should be given the affairs of the Lindbergh family. But his statement placing blame on the newspapers is unfair. Racket eering must be blamed rather than the press" ,i
 Neil Murray, Fl Monte, president of the California Newspaper Pub fishers association, said: Not only do newspapers of California feel they did not contribute in any way to the death of the first son, but they feel they were in a meas ure instrumental in helping obtain a federal law making death the penalty of kidnaping--thAs safc- guarding so far as possible the life of the second son. While deeply sympathetic for the Lindberghs, the public must know full well that publicity concerning the first baby had nothing to do with its tragic death. If publicity of any kind had anything to do with it, 1t waa that pertaining to the flying feat which brought Lindbergh from ob- scurity to world prominence.
