Hummel Under Indictment.
The fact that the district attorney
treated with Hummel came ns a great
surprise to many, as they are bitter en
emies. Jerome convicted Hummel for
conspiracy In the Morse-Dodge scandal,
for which he was sentenced to one
year, and did much toward having him
disbarred from practicing law. There
are two felony Indictments hanging
over the former lawyer, and nolwlth-

Dr. Evans said he had been exercis

afternoon and th* dignity of Justice
FlUgarald was ruffled on account
of a wordy war at th* door of the
court room between Keeper Owens and
Oeurge L. Carnegie, the prisoner's
brother-in-law.
Customerlly Mr. Carnegie enters the
room through a private passageway.
It was closed, after recess and hs went
lo the regular entrance where he mat
Lawyer Moor*, of Mr. Hartrldgs's of
fice. Not withstanding Ills pleadings,
Owens would not permit Mr. t'arnegle
lo enter, saying he had no business
there. For a lime It seemed (hat the
men would com* to blows. Suddenly
the proceeding was Interrupted by the
noise.
Justice Fltsgerald brought down hls
gravel and sent officers nut to quail
the disturbance. Dan O'Reilly then
tried to get Mr. Carnegie In. and when
unlit not overcome the obdurate
doorman, the door leading to the pri
vate entrance was opened to him.
During the latter part of the row the
session of court stopped.
Another Incident was a sensational
clash between District Attorney Je
rome and Dr. Charles B. Evans, rhlef
alienist for the defense, excited In*

brief .id Inurnment In the afternoon for
the purpose of ventilating the room.
The district attorney called the alleti-

trouble occurred when the police
pined up Just imtsliie of the doni of
■urtroom. All th* lawyers and Ilie
alienists and a number ot newspaper
were standing Inside the po'.tce
lints smoking and talking. Dr. Charles
II. Evnnx appeared and spoke to Mr.
let min* and the district attorney w ent
>n smoking without paying the slight
est attention to the bow. “What Is the
mailer. Judge?" Asked Evans, and he
held out Ills hand.
Jerome raised hls own hand, took the
cigarette from hls mouth and merely
looked at the docini contemptuously,
without speaking. The mun who had
oeen Insulted Bill persisted: "Why do
you smoke. Judge, when I extend my
band'."' he demanded angrily. Jerome

that all near could hear: "If you In

Mr. Jerome shrusgetl Ills shoulders.

SA YS MORIZ ROSENTHAL
By SELENE ARMSTRONG.
“Ah, but xe newspaper person
awaiting to see me somewher. a ladlg
they told me she was*, and I cannot
find her'*—and the agitation expressed
In Herr Moris Rosenthal'* voice ended
In a crescendo of despair at the com
plexity of the American hotel system
and the persistence of American "news
paper persons." When he had been
rescued from the elevator and had re
gained Ills composure, he submitted
gracefully in being Interviewed, and in
broken English with a German
French phrase thrown In here and
there, he gave some charming glimpses
Into hls brilliant career.
Yes. I hsve been ronrertlslng since
my eleventh year. My nrsi appear-
unce was made at that age In my na
tive town of Lemburg. My master was
Mlkull. Who Studied under Chopin. An
other teacher of mine, and he wltn is
one of nty very dearest friends. Is

Here Herr Rosenthal was plied with
the question which I ant perfectly' sure
all Interviewers have asked him sines
that eleventh year of hls, when be first
astounded the good folk of I-ernhurx
with hls wlsard touch. 1 wished to
know whom he considers the greatest
living composer.
"Modesty forbids my saying." In* re-
sponded with a promptness which made
one forget to laugh. And because I
did forget. It" hastened to lie modest
nnd to explain that lie "said It for a
Joke"
"Bui to be In earnest very much." he
continued, ndoptlng this qualm phrase
for lit*, "but seriously speaking." with
which we Americans end our cynl •
Isms and yvlttlclsms, "I do not think
w* can say of one men. This Is the
greatest composer,' for no man com
bines all the tender and the heroic and
the sorrowful In hls playing. In mine.
I ant trying to express them all. I
should much like to be os Proteus was.
Do you recall about him? The great
thing Is to try to be universal.'*
Asked It he and the famous Pade
rewski were rivals, Herr Rosenthal's
quick smile told that they are the beat
of friends.
"We do not need to be rivals. We
love each other very much.’*
He brought from hls pocket an Inter
esting looking batch of letters with
foreign stamps, and searching among
them he found Paderewski's Christmas
cablegram. It read In French:
"Affectionate good wishes and sin
cere friendship.—PadsrewakL” \
"Oh. but It now occurs to ms that
this may seam like advertising the
friendship.” said Herr Rosenthal with
sudden deprecation In hls vole*. “You
are very understanding of how It
would appear In print and I beg you
It so that they win *
:tion
for Pade-
to write
only express my afftc
rewskt.”
And assured that Atlanta psopfe
would understand and would be glad
to read of PmdsrswakL whom they
love. Herr Rosenthal was calm again.
Hut speaking of great composers,”
he resumed, "the three very greatest
ever In the world, I think, were Bee-'
ihoven. Hchutnan and Chopin. Tonight
you will hsar Beethoven and Bchuman
on my program."

the marvellous greatness of Bss-

I refused to shake bands with you
and I wai compelled to be very trank."
Then ihe db-trli t attorney '.itmed hls
back on the silent*! and went on smok

Evans looked at Jtroma's back for a

himself and went over to ono aids mut
