L xon was the first witnes: y. His redirect examinagion nducted by Samuel Untermyer, coun- for the bondholders. Untermyer again took Nixon over the affairs of the Bethlehem Steel Company and its connecticn with the shipbuilding com- pany. Nixon declared himself ignorant f affairs of the Bethichem Steel Com- pany before its acquisition by the ship- to- building company, having made no in- vest tion thereof and having relied upon the reports of the accountants. For matters since that time he gener- ferred Untermyer to the min- { utes of the meetings, declining to tes- tify to matters of record. and in regard {to the listing of the shipbuilding se- curities he adhered to his previous at- titude—that he had left this to Judge Gary and Pam, who, he said, had com- plete charge. In this connection barked on a long course of question- ing about the relaticn of the shipbuild- ing company and the constituent com- panies when .the several plants and their a: s had been leased back to the constituent companies under these circumstances. Nixon said he was un- able to speak with authority on so com- plicated a point of law, especially as he had no opportunity to consult the leases. The leases were sent for. ® Untermyer em- and the doc- SCHWAB'S LETTERS PRODUCED. | Nixon was then caused to relate the steps he took in opposition to the Shel- don reorganization, when an ment on the stock of the shipbuilding company was suggested to him by Jo seph H. Hoadley, and he and Hoad- ley endeavored to persuade Schwab to consent to this plan. During this re lation Nixon described himself as “‘an amateur in the business,” and then Guthrie objected to the whole state- ment. Untermyer said Le had no ob- jection to striking out Nixon's refer- ence to amateurism. Untermyer offered in evidence two letters from Charles M. Schwab to Hgadley, offering to purchase certain stocks and bonds of the shipbuilding company. Nixon admitted . that the stocks and bonds referred to were those given him at the formation of the company, in case the Sheldon reorgani- zation plan were agreed to. Guthrie | immediately objected to these letters, | but Untermyer declared them relevant, as showing that “Mr. Schwab bribed, | or attempted to bribe, the president of | the shipbuilding company to agree to {a plan of reorganization to which he | had previously objected.” | Untermyer thrice repeated this state- | ment about attempted bribery and fin- | ally secured the admission of one of | the letters, the authenticlty of the | other, a copy, being unproved. The letter was as follows: | . NEW YORK. May 26. 1903.—Joseph H. | Hoadley, New York City, N. Y. r §ir: Providing the United States Ship- Ihundmx reorganization is perfected, I ’hfl'eby guarantee to take and pay for $100,000 of first mOfltflfe bonds of the ‘l'nnad States Shipbuilding = Company, 25.000 shares of preferred and 25,000 | shares of common stock, for the sum of $9Q.000, plus interest on said bonds, on or before December 1, 1903. Said bonds and stocks to be deposited with Messrs. | McIntyre & Marshall, 74 Broadway, New York, and to be exchanged for securities of the reorganized company, as designat- ©d by agreement issued by the reorgani- zation committee. Veév truly yours. . M. SCHWAB. The second letter, which was later admitted as evidence, is as follows: NEW YORK, May 26, 1903.—Mr. Jo- was | | by the Japanese Legation that -the status of the Russo-Japanese negotia- | tibns is particularly favorable for peace | and the views of Sir Ernest Satow, the | British Minister, that the complications in Manchuria are particularly fore- boding are alike taken as evidence that !lhe situation since the reoccupation of | Moukden by the Russians has stead- | ily become worse. { Uchida, the Japanese Minister here, has hitherto denied that he had any | knowledge of negotiations being car- ried on between his Government and | Ruesia. Troops from European and Asiatic Russia are now arriving in Lower Man- | churia. It is reported that the Rus- sians have occupied Haiching and also that there has been a serious encoun- ter near Hsinmingtin with bandit forces, which are very active at pres- ent. YOKOHAMA, Nov. 24—No reply has been received from St. Petersburg on the subject of the Japanese overtures and there are many indications that the delay in the negotiations is embar- rassing Japanese foreign trade and raising impatience in Japanese circles | as shown by public meetings in Tokio, o) —— + NOTED MILITARY AND NA- VAL LEADERS OF THE JAPANESE EMPIRE. + = e iaguinst the Ministerial inactivity. One popular ‘Tokio newspaper has | been twice officially suspended for pub- | lishing verses indirectly suggesting the | assassination of the Ministers. It is feared that popular feeling may mani- | fest itself on December 5, when the Diet meets, unless some decided devel- opment in the negotiations occurs in the meantime. The Ministers remain reticent, professing confidence in their ability to control the situation. ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 24—Port Arthur was opened to-day as a trad- the Governor's orders. P AT ELBE AT HONOLULU. Italian Warship Visits Island Port on Way to Asiatic Station. HONOLULU, Nov. 18.—The Italian protected warship Elbe has arrived in port from Acapulco, Mexico, whence the vessel sailed October 30. The trim looking vessel, much like an American warship, is anchored in the stream. A salute was fired as King Emmanuel’'s ship came down the channel and & crowd collected on the wharves to watch the vessel maneuver. The Elbe will remain in Honolulu a week and will take on a supply of coal before proceeding to Yokohama, where she will join the Asiatic division of the Italian navy. The Elbe is returning to the scene of her former triumphs, for the vessel took an imvortant part in the campaign of 1900 against the Box- ers and sent detachments of marines and sailors to the relief of Peking. For three months this year, up to October, the Elbe lay at Callao. Taking coal there last month she proceeded to Acapulco under orders to report on the Asiatic station. On the day that the vessel reached Acapulco the United States cruiser Boston entered, en route | Yokohama ;md‘ Osaka, protesting ling port. Ship dues and commercial | to Panama. | seph H. Hoadley, New York, Y.—Dear 8ir: Providing the United States Ship- building Company reorganization is per- fected, I hereby guarantee to pay %o your order $40,000, amount of paymer& which has been made to the Sheldon syndicate on a subscription of $100,000 made by Lewis Nixon. I also agree to have sald subscription placed to my aceount and guarantee to have a complete Telease is- | sued to said Nixon by said Sheldon syn- dicate. CHARLES M. SCHWABR. “After the date of these letters, did or did not Mr. Hoadley get you to ac- cept this plan?” asked Untermyer. Nixon explained that Hbadley ad- | vised him to consent to the/Sheldon re- organization because Schwab had re- fused to accept the assessment plan and that he (Nixon) bad thereupon written a letter recoramending the Sheldon plan. “As to my derivingsany profit from the transaction, that is monsense,” said Nixon, “The transaction concerned | others and I prefergthat they should tell 1t." Untermyer servedj a request upon | Guthrie to preduce' certain letters in .Schwab's possession, concerning the plan. Nixon then testified to having writ- ten to Schwab a letter and obtained from him a letter /confirmatory of the proposal in the Jetter of May 26 to Hoadley. Schwalb's letter stated that .the proposal was, contingent upon the success of the Stheldon reorganization plan, and Nixon, said that he then let the matter drop. The witness smaid, in reference to the Sheldon plan, “hat he felt “greatly ir- | ritated” becavjse he, though president | of the shipyards company, had not ] been consulied, and reiterated his statement made at the previous hear- ing that his ‘only knowledge of the re- organization..plan had come from con- versations ‘ith Pam. WHAT BECAME OF $1,000,000? Untermysper took up the matter of the additional compensation demanded by | the Trust /Company of the Republic for its services, and witness testified to the Issuance of $5,000,000 additional stock at the reorganization. Of this stock, it was brought out, Max Pam obtained $1,000,000, Nixon and Dresser $1,000,000 each and the Trust Company of the Republic $1,000,000. Nixon said he did not know what disposition was made of the other million. “Did Mr. Schwab get it?” he was asked. “I do not know."” Nixon was asked about his previous acquaintance with Schwab and the con- nection of the Carnegie and Bethlehem companies with the United States Ship- building Company, with a view, Unter- myer said, to bringing out Schwab’s knowledge of shipbuilding affairs be- fore his connection with the company. Witness sald that an agreement was made by which the shipbuilding com- pany was to obtain steel for foreign ships from the Carnegie company at a price enabling it to compete with foreign builders. He was asked about the bids submitted by the United States Shipbuilding Company this year on two battleships for the American navy, and testified that he was not allowed to submit the bids prepared by himself, but other bids, drawn up under Pam’s direction and signed by Hanscomb of the Eastern Shipyards Company, were submitted instead. PIERPONT MORGAN’S PROFITS. The dgreement of July 2, 1903, be- tween Nixon, Dresser and Schwab, pro- viding that Schwab should loan to Nixon and Dresser $7,246,871 to pur- chase the Bethlehem stock from J. P. Morgan & Co., as syndicate managers, in return for which Schwab was to re- ceive $15,000,000 in stock and $10,000,000 in bonds, was introduced in evidence, Nixon testifying that he had always understood that Schwab, and not Mor- gan & Co., ownéd the Bethlehem stock.

A resolution of the shipbuilding di- rectors, adopted in January, 1903, stat- Ing that legal steps should be taken to recover shipbuilding securities to the amount of $760,000 in bonds and $3,600,- 000 of stock from the Trust Company of the Republic for the rightful owner, the Shipbuilding Company, was read, | but Nixon could not say that any legal action had ever been undertaken in connection therewith. After devoting some time to a discus- sfon of the real value of the constitu- ent plants and the reasonableness of the prices paid for them, the hearing was adjourned until Tuesday, Decem- ber 8. —_——— VIENNESE RAILROAD MAN TAKES TERRIBLE REVENGE Resents Dismissal of Fellow Em- ployes by Throwing Bomb, Which Kills Six People.

EUREKA, Nov. 24.—Ernest Sevier, a prominent attorney here, died at his home in this city last night. certain course and the expediency resisting a certain course. It was not the policy of the Unionist Government i which was before the country. Tt public liked a clear issue, and such a issue had been placed before them by Mr. Chamberlain, who left the Govern- ment in order that he might be free. Cheers and hisses again followed this mention of Mr. Chamberlain. Referring to the speeches of Premier Balfour, the Duke of Devonshire said that they did not indicate the objective policy of the Government. Had he been assured that a moderate use of | the proposed power of retaliation would be made by the Premier, he still might | be a member of the Government. i He was epposed to the taxation of | food because he thought that sueh tax- ation was the keynote of the entire policy to which he took exception. Should the price of food be raised some | | compensation must be given to the | workingmen., He recognized the great | service of Joseph Chamberlain, but ' |even the great services of the past should not blind any one to an acute | | consideration of the result and signi- | ficance of the former Colonial Secre- | tary’s fiscal scheme. In his budget Mr. Chamberlain apparently had not con- sidered the increased cost of living for the workingman. The Duke of Devonshire said he was prepared to prove that Mr. Chamber- | lain’s Glasgow budget would entail a tremendous 10ss to the consumer, while the workingman’s expenses would be increased 10 per cent. He believed that there could be no greater fallacy that | from the prohibition or restriction of imports from abroad would increase | the profitable employment of capital {and labor at home. The country was | jprnspenng everywhere, yet Mr. Cham- | berlain asserted that only stagnation | existed. . H Alluding to Mr. Chamberiain's charge | that he (the Duke) was a “drag on the | | wheels of progress,” the speaker said | he was content to act as a drag on the | | engine which was running down grade | against all signals. | Lord Goschen moved, and Lord Ham- | {ilton seconded, the following resolu- | | tion, which was passed by an over- | | whelming vote: | “This meeting, while prepared to con- | sider in a friendly spirit any measure | the Government may submit to Parlia- ment in special cases for mitigating the effects of hostile tariffs, is of the | opinion that strenuous opposition should be offered to any fiscal policy | involving the protective taxation of i food and the establishment of a gen | eral preferential or protective ADVERTISEMENTS.
