RAILROAD, NOT EMPLOYEES,
LAUDED GRAFT IN STOCK
By Private Leased Wire.
Philadelphia, Juno 0.—A. J. CaasAtt
did not appear before the " Interstate
commerce commission yesterday. The
Pennsylvania railroad was -dropped
temporarily and the searchlight swung
ovsr the New Tork Central system.
Comparatively speaking, the skirts of
employeei of the latter road are found
to be spotless. Instead of officials of
the Central getting free stocks, the
company Itself gleaned all such "graft'
as It has been’called.
E. B. Whitney, of New Tork, did the
questioning. Among the audience were
Hugh L. Bond, Jr., second vice presi
dent of tha Baltimore and Ohio, as well
as the .Pennsylvania's two attorneys,
Francis I, Gowen ahd C. Stuart Patter
son. One lone woman in the last row
of seats was a novelty In the room.
What Ha Supposed.
Vice president Rosslter, of the New
York Central, was the first witness of
the day. He said that he had been
connected with ' the road for forty
years and had charge of the finance
department
Mr. Rosslter discussed at length the
agreements between the Central and
Us subsidiary coal companies.
"I presume,” said Mr. Whitney, “that
at the time when rebating was the
practice the rebates ware given In the
Bach Creek district*."
"I, suppose there were rebate*,” an
swered the witness. "I paid what
vouchers were presented to me."
No Means of Knowing.
Mr. Rosslter said that so far as he
knew there was no rebating at pres
ent; that he had heard rumors of the
former rebating and had no means of
ascertaining certainly the purpose of
the disbursements for which he hon
ored vouchers.
• H, Ewilngs, superintendent of
freight transportation for the Central,
said he held no stock In coal compa
nies. and had never "had any offered
him. It was understood, he said, to be
against the road’s policy for employees
to be Interested In freight shipping
concerns along the line. He explained
the method of car distribution.
"Do you receive complaints of die,
crimination In the ratings?" akked Mr.
Whitney.
Operators Only Human.
“Coal operators are not human un
less they complain about ratings." was
the answer.
Witness declared that the New Tork
1 entral consistently refuses to bandle
private cars for operators In the fields
penetrated by Its lines.
"Of course, we handle private cars
transferred to us for forwarding from
other roads," said the witness.
A. H. Smith, general manager of the
New York Central, said that he had
general supervision of car dlstribu-
tion.
"Our purpose has always been to act
In absolute and all falrnes. between
the Interests Involved," he said.
Smith said he had never owned
or hod offered to him any coal stock.
"What's the use pf loading a wagon
If you can't have It?" Mr. Smith, asked
his. Interrogators. Witness said he
knew of no litigation to enforce the
construction of sidings, ahd that If any
wrongs had been done In failing to
build sidings, It had been due only to
mistakes of judgment by certain offi
cers.
J. P. Bradfleld, general superintend
ent of the Central; ,P. E, Crowley, as
sistant general superintendent, with
headquarters at Syracuse; D. W. Nl-
nan, present superintendent of the
Pennsylvania division, and Tralnmaater
Abbott, of the Pennsylvania division,
also testified. Mr. Abbott said he had
received tome small presents from the
operators, but no money, and held no
coal company stocks.

YOUNG WIDOW'S STORY
WINS HERTflEEDOM
COUSIN OF MRS. NANNIE ASTOR
IS CLEARED OF HUSBAND-
MURDER CHARGE.
By Private Leased Wire.
Monrovia. Cal., June 6—The Mrs.
Albert Storra who took the stand In
her own behalf yesterday was a wom
an to whom the public had never been
Introduced. She talked right Into the
heart of things and the structure of
evidence laboriously erected by detec
tives and lawyers came fumbling down.
Mrs. Storrs had not uttered a half
doien sentence, before It was clear
that she would talk herself to freedom,
and she did.
But before he pronounced the final
words dismissing the murder charge,
the Judge expressed opinions which
leave doubt In the minds of many who
heard them as to the Innocence of
the young widow.
"I am not thoroughly satisfied,” he
said, "that what I am about to do Is the
best. There Is a sequence of circum
stances pointing to the guilt of the de
fendant, yet I must know the case as
though I were upon a Jury trying this
woman. If 1 were I could not vote for
a verdict of conviction."
While to many this frank statement
dulled the edge of her vindication. It
seemed not to lessen her Joy. 8he
sprang up and grasped his hand with
a cry of happy relief, and for five ‘min
utes was the center of a congratulat
ing crowd.
Mrs. Storrs Is 22 years of age and
was married five months ago. She Is
a cousin of Mrs. Nannie Langhorne
Shaw Aetor.

Washington, June 0.—After four
months of constant effort In the house,
Representative Bonynge yesterday sue,
ceedod In getting the new naturalise
tlnn bill through. Although Mr, Bon.
ynge Is by long odds far from being
the ranking Republican member on the
committee on Immigration and natu
ralisation, he waa selected by the
committee to take charge of the bill
on the door of the house:
Early In February, the bill was
brought up fur Its first debate, and
has been used as a sort of a filler-
In legislation aver since. Spirited op
position to the bill on the part of
itourko Cockran nnd other Democrats
continually staved off a vote, the main
objection being to the stringent edu
cational qualifications that were placed
In the hill.
The parliamentary tactics In the
house In regard to the bill yesterday
were Intricate, nnd the Colorado mem
ber In charge of the bill was contln
unity on his feet, The bill, If It passes
the senate, marks the first change In
the naturalisation laws for over one
hundred years.
PLACE Of MEETING
CAUSESJYRANGLING
PREACHERS IN A ROW AS TO THE
ASSOCIATION'S SES
SIONS.
The Evnngelleal Ministers' Associa
tion Is Just now In a controversy as to
where future meetings of the associa
tion are to be held.
Rev, Franlt Bakes, pastor of Wes
ley Memorial church, Is authority for
the statement that the association
passetT resolutions some months ago
fixing his church ns the place for
meetings of the ministers. Hs says
that the resolution was Introduced nt
the suggestion of Dr. C. K. Dowmnn,
pastor of the First Methodist church,
and was unanimously passed.
Mr. Bakes says It Is Immaterial with
him'where the association meets, but
that he thinks his church has been
treated discourteously. He bellevt
that If the meetings are held at the
Young Men's Christian Association
building the association will not last
sight months.
Rev. T. I*. Cleveland, secretary of
the Evangelical Ministers’ Association,
dsrends his action, and says hs has no
Interest In ths matter other than to
secure the most convenient place In
which to hold the meetings.
The usual custom of ths association
to adjourn from the June meeting un
til fall, while many of the ministers
are away on vacation, was overlooked,
and a meeting arranged for July.
