When the fire department arrived with its ladders nearly everyone on the fireescapes were kneeling in pray- er.

DECLARES RESULT IS DISCOURAGING GOVERNMENT SPENT MUCH TIME AND MONEY IN SECURING THE INDICTMENTS. Washington, Nov. 17.—Secretary Hitchcock has been unofficially noti- fied that in the matter of the prosecu- tion of Bartlett Richards and W. G. Comstock in the federal court at Oma- acres of government land in Sheridan county, Neb., upon pleading guilty the defendants had been sentenced to re- main for six hours in the custody of the United States marshal and pay a fine of $200 each. “You can say,” in discussing the verdict, surprised and indignant. The punish- ment is utterly inadequate. The in- dictment was the result of four years { of determined effort and the expendi- ture of thousands of dollars by the department. We had selected the large operators in the hope that the result would be a warning to those en- gaged on a smaller scale.

New York, Nov. 17.—Former Gov- ernor Odell went on the stand in the insurance investigation during the day. Mr. Odell denied that he had ever directly or indirectly threatened to bhave the charter of the Mercantile Trust company revoked. When again asked if the Mercantile Trust’s charter was threatened Mr. Odell dramatically exclaimed: “There is no truth in that, so help me God.” Mr. Odell said he wrote a letter at the request of Mr. McIntyre, former fourth vice president of the Equitable, in behalf of Mr. Hyde's candidacy for the French ambassadorship. This had nothing to do with the Shipbuilding settlement. The letter was written be- fove the settlement. Mr. Odell said that he never solicited | { political contributions from insurance {companies nor were any given to him voluntarily. He might have received ! | some indirectly through the National ! | Republican committee or Senator Platt. | Knew Nothing About Lobbyists. The witness said he knew nothing i of the efforts of insurance companies i to prevent inimical le; direction only by hearsay. He did not ! know Andrew Hamilton.

Senator Depew said he was first asked to go into a syndicate by George H. Squire. He detailed the various syndicates he had been in during four years and said these had netted him the sum of $1,219. In these syndicates he had $200,000 tied up most of the | time and $100,000 is still tied up. ) Discusses Position as Counsel. ¢ As to his retention as counsel by the ‘Equitable society Senator Depew said his statement to Superintendent Hen- dricks covered the field, but he made an extended statement of his associa tions with Henry B. Hyde and said he continued as counsel for the society : after the death of Mr. Hyde, because it was one of Mr. Hyde's dying in- junctions to his son. Senator Depew’s 1 salary as counsel was $20,000 a year tfrom 1388 until last spring. Senator Depew said he was spoken to by friends of President Alexander ;and Vice President Hyde about the in- jcrease in their salaries. He justified {the large salary to one of Mr. Hyde’s | {Hmited experience on the ground of his ability, which, he said, was recog- nized by the financial men with whom he came in contact.
