MALT EXTRACT Sterilized 15¢ a Bottle $1.50 a Dozen AT DUNN’S PHARMACY 50 Main Street. marlgd New York, March 31.—That William H. Buckley, accelerator of insurance legislation, and the late “Andy” Ham- ilton, keeper of the life insurance “yel- low dog” fund of former years, worked shoulder to shoulder oiling the legisla- tive wheels at Albany for good and substantial consideration, s testi- fled today at the fire insurance in. quiry conducted by William H. Hotch- kiss, state superintendent of insur- ance. Hamilton, the evidence showed, received no less than $8,999 from cer- tain companies in 1901. Hamiiton’s name was placed in the record in the testimony of Henry C. ‘Wilcox, vice president of the Ameri- can Surety company. In 1901, Wilcox testified, the fire insurance companies caused to be introduced in the legis- lature a bill to exempt the unearned premium reserves from taxation. Mr. Wilcox wanted to have the casualty and surety companies included in the exemption, and accordingly went to Albany, He tried to get _Senator Raynes and Assemblvman Lewis inter- ested, but failed. Then he hunted up Buckley and .told him his troubles. Made Deal Over Telephone. Buckley, he said, told him- that Hamilton was the one to help him. Buckley telephoned to Hamilton, who was in New York, and when he an- swered had Wilcox lay the case before him. Then Buckley went into the tel- ephone booth and talked with Hamil- ton. When he came out he said Ham- ilton had agreed to take it up. Wil- cox left Albany and the amendment went through as desired, 'When it was all over Hamilton sent a bill for $10,- 600 to the American Surety company. “Did he tell you he had to pay out any of the money?’ the witness was asked. “He conveyed to me the suggestion that he had assumed obligations which he could not meet unless the full amount were paid.” This was as strong as Mr. Wilcox would put it. He thought the bill was too large but as a compromise he said he sent three checks to Hamilten, agzregating $6,- 469. The bulk of that amount was paid by the American Surety company, which made out its check to Hamilton for $5,676; while the .United States Guarantee company paid §419 and the Lawyers’ Surety company $374. Other surety companies, although benefited, declined to contribute. It was shown later, however, that the Nation- al Surety company paid $2,530 direct to_Hamiiton, Besides what The turned over to Hamilton, Whcox testified, he agreed to get another $1,000 for him if pos- sible. Hamilton angered him by his persistency, however, until he dropped the matter. Then, he testified, Buckley took it up for his friend Hamilton, and wrote S QUESTIONS GENUINENESS OF PAINTING. New York Art Collector Sues German Dealer for $3,500. New York, March 31.—An attach- ment on The Gathering of the Manna, by Rubens, and on The Virgin Hold- ing the Head of Christ, by Gerard Da- vis, to paintings entered at the cus- toms house as worth ths one $60,000 and the other $40,000, was asked today by Dr. John E. Stillwéll, another New York collector, who thinks he has the worst of his bargain with the picture dealers, Dr. Stillwell is suing Herr Emil Pa- cully, a German dealer, for $3,800 on charges that in exchange of pictures he was given an alleged Jan Van Goyen, which he now believes to be spurious. Pacully exhibited a certi- ficate in court today from Herr Fried- lander, director of the Kaliser Fried- rich museum, to prove that the Van Goyen was genuine. The authenticity of the paintings by Rubens and Gerard Davis, on which it is sought to issue an attachment, is not questioned, They are poth verified by the king of Spain and Dr. Stillwell seeks te hold them to cover his alleged loss in the Van Goyen transaction. Decision was re- served. Edible Fruit from Climbing Rose. Berkeley, Cal, March 31.—Hugo Lithenthall, a local hornticulturist, an- nounces the discovery of an edible fruit from the climbing rose. He declares that this fruit will in_course of time take the prace of the Logan berry, to which it is allied. Lithenthall suc- ceeded in obtaining the fruit by cross- grafting. The fruit, which he says is quite nutritious and has a flavor like a pineapple, may be eaten either raw or cooked. What Democracy Needs.

In , 1903, he said, Buckley was still after the money. That was the last he heard of it. Buckley and Hamilton Inseparable. “How did you happen to know that Buckley and Hamilton were friends?” the witness was as| “If I wanted to find one of mm. the other usually was close by. the evenings, if I wanted to see Hamfl- ton, he would likely be found in the insurance department,” was the re- ply. “Did Andy Hamilton hang out in the insurance depariment?” asked Mr. Hotchkiss. “He was there frequently.” At the time referred to. Buckley It was William J. Griffin, vice pres- ident and general solicitor of the Na- tional Sarety company. who told of his company’s contrifbution of $2,530 to Hamilton. The check was produceg at the hearing: it was signed by Buck- ley for Hamilfon. Mr. Griffin showed correspondence which indicated that in 1901 Buckley rying to “get back into the har- as Mr Hotchkiss put it. In that year there were three bills before the legislature in which the National Surety company was interested. The president of the company, William B. Joyce, wrote to Buckley asking him to interest some influential member of the legislature in the matter. “If you want any help,” he wrote, “call on Senator Thomas J. McManus, who do all he can to aid you.” But Buckley failed with the three bills, and Mr. Griffin said that the rec- ords of his company did not show that any money was pakl to Buckley for the service, Elijah R. Kennedy, former legisla- tive agent for the fire company, who has been on the stand several times, came back today to give some new de- tails of the disbursement of $13,311 in 1901 to bring about the passage of the tax exemption bill, He accounted for all but about $800 of the amount. Legislature Spurred tb Action. The disclosures unearthetl by Supt of nIsurance Hotchkiss in the fire insurance irVestigation now under way in New York, has spurred the.legisla- ture to action. The assembly ways and means committee reported a res- olution today providing for a legisla- tive Investigation by a joint committee of three senators and five assembly- men, not only of the affairs of fire insurance companies but of casualty and other branches of the insurance business. The committee is to be clothed with the usual powers of a legislative com- mittee and $25,000 is provided for its expenses. IMMUNITY FOR PITTSBURG GRAFTERS. Three More Councilmen and a Select- man Confess. Pittsburg, March 31. — William Brand, former president of common council, who was brought from the penitentiary to testify before the grand jury today, contributed his full con- fession to help the gran probers to trail the “men higher up.” District Attorney William A. Blake- 1y, when the jury came out this even- ing for a recess until tomorrow, said that Brand gave way completely un- der the grilling which the.inquisitors ve him today. “I don’t believe that he could have suffered more in years of imprisonment than he has by the worry and humiliation of the eek,” said Mr. Blakely. Brand's con- fesgion and ithat of Charles Stewart yesterday leaves but one more impor- tant witness to be heard, it is sald, be- fore more public sensations take place. This witness is Councilman Hugh Fer— guson, who was at the courthouse to- day seeking opportunity to tell his story and have dome with it. The grand jury wae too busy, however, and put him off until tomorrow. P. B. Kearns, a former select council- man, was mutinous when brought first as a witness today, but was forced to submission by threats of commitment to jail for contempt of court. More di- rectors and employes of banks were before the jury today and two voung women, Bessie Currin and Nellie Sher- lock, telephone operators at the Farm- ers’ National Deposit bank. Three more councilmen obtained im- munity by pleading no defense to the charges of taking bribes. These were Samuel Poster, who admiited getting $400 from Stewart for his vote on the Pank ordinance; T. O. Atkinson, who confessed taking $100 from Dr. W. H. Weber for his vote on a street ordi- nance and $500 from Stewart to sup- port the bank ordinance, and John Mc- Cartney, a former selectman, who said he got $400 for his votes on both ordi- nances. Under threats of commitment to jail fourteen of the men recently indicted appeared today with bondsmen who gave bail of $5,000 each for their ap- pearance in court later. The grand jury will be in session again tomorrow. To strengthen the evidence already obtained about the transfer of $45,000 by Stewart at the Hotel Imperial in New York in May, 1908, for alleged use in bribing Pittsburg councilmen to vote |- for the bank ordinance, the grand jury is said to have asked for the registers for 1908 of several New York hotels. STOLE HEARSE CONTAINING BODY While Boston Undertaker Was Secur— ing a Burial Permit. Boston, March 31.—Visions of the dead arisen floated before the eyes of Undertaker James A. Goudey today when a body in his charge disappeared. Goudey had driven his hearse contain- ing the bo’y of a man to the old court house on Court street and entered the municipal offices to secure a burial permit. When he came out body, hearse and horse were gone. A short search, however, revealed the vehicle a short distance around the corner, in Court square, with another man on the box. A policeman whose suspicions had been aroused was talking to the man, and after he had heard Goudey’s story he placed the stranger under arrest. The man, who gave his name as Don- ald Beauslack, insited that another man had asked him to drive the hearse around the corner. He wae taken into. the municipal court, where Judge Bol- ster held him for a hearing on Satur- day on a charge of unlawful appropria- tion of a horse and a hearse, and in default of bail he was remanded to the Charles street jail. $50,000 for Poor of Litau, Russia.
