No money, watches or jewelry was on the body, but the fastening of the stick pin was still in the cravat, the part with the dia- monds having been removed. The police claim to have found the two watches owned by Mason in a pawn shop, with Clark Wix’s name on the ticket. Wix took two diamonds, corresponding in size to those in Mason’s pin to a jewelry and had one set in a ring and the other a atick pin. The ring he gave to Maud Wil- son, a woman, who was living with Mason at the time of his disappear- ance.

Wm. Travers Jerome, who distin- guished himeelfas prosecuting at- torney in New York City by one term of genuine duty-doing, is now on trial for dereliction in office. And Jerome is guilty and should be oust- ed. He wasn’t « big enough man for the place, though his firsts term indicated that he was. The tempt- ing tendrils of graft cotled themselves about him and won him and his power as prosecutor in the great city of graft. He shielded millionaire thieves and embezzlers. Among those whom he protected from the law’s just course and saved from a felon’s cell was Gieo, W. Perkins, one of the big life insurance grafters. Perkins gave some $50,000 of polley holders’ money in the campaign of 1899 to defeat Bryan, It was a clean thefé anda clear violation of law. Jerome admits tt. But listen to the supremely silly and defense- less story he tells in his present trial in extenuation of his prosecution of the man whom he should have sent to the penitentiary: “It was perfectly plain that Bryan’s election would have been followed by a shrinkage in the value of the securities of the New York Lite Insurance company of say at least 10 or 12 per cent. so that with 450 millions of securities this eontri- button of M.. Perkins (of $50,000 of the insurance company’s money to defeat Brya:.) was a shrewd business move, even if were illegal.” Bryan has earned the enmity of the grafters to the point where they condone embezzlement when resorted to asa means of defeating his elec- tion as president.—I't.
