St LOUIS, Dec. 5.—In a letter to| | Major J. G. Pangborn, president of | | the Tnited Exhibitors’ Association, | made public to-day, President Thomas | H. Carter of the National World's | Fair Commission, declared that “most grave and serious charges of corruption in connection with the | awarding of certain premiums have | been fled” with the National Com- mission The letter, after quoting that part | of the act of Congress making an propri on for the exposition, wh provides “that the appointment of ! ail judges and examiners for the ex- | position and the awarding of pr | miums, if any, shall be done and per- formed by t exposition company, subject, however, to the National | Commission, created by section 2 of | this act.” continues as follows: Under th rules adopted by the company | and approved by the commission the group | of jurors were to be appo d b he com- | before August 1 of the| Jurore was submitted to the commission for approval in accordance with this provision of | the rules and regulations. A number of those ! who acted were not submitted to the com- | | mission for avpproval until after they had performed thelr functions and departed from the grounds and many of them have not been approved Most grave and serious charges of corrup- | tion in comnection with the awarding of ce: tain premiums bhave been flled with the c miesion in the form of affidavits and ot wise.

I didn't want to make no rough house, but wot could I do w'en de freshy refuses ter 'polochize ter de loldy?"” Mr. Harding's dismissal was immedi- ately followed by the arraignment of Peter Thomas, also charged with hav- ing failed to observe the decorum in- sisted on by the directors of the Jockeys' ball. No redeeming phase of chivalry, however, was urged in ex- tenuation of Mr. Thomas' transgres: sion. Instead of champloning a dis- tressed female, he verbally abused the lady whose ‘“steady” he was. In his behalf it was pleaded that her behavior was such as to convey to him great vexation of spirit. After the first dance she seemed so eager to avold a repeti- tion with him as her partner that he accused her of deliberate coquetry. She denied the impeachment and requested him to try to abstain from being hog- gish and to allov: her to trip the light fantastic with whom she pleased. He retorted by saying that if he were an iInferior dancer he could find logical reascn for her desire to whirl with others, but as his Terpsichorean ability was unquestioned he could only ascribe her conduct to an innate love of flirta- tion. At which she tossed her head, clutched her train and swung into a two-gtep in the embrace of an eighty- seven-pound jockey who could scarce- ly dance at all. Thus it went, the lady whirling with a different partner through every number on the card, while he who had imagined himself her physical escort and intellectual dicta- tor sat amid the wall-flowers and Yes, it was true’that the young lady in question had exhibited her nether limbs, encased in silken tights, on many | American stages and before large and | admiring audiences, nor would it be| gainsaid that her physical grace as de- picted on the billboards had interested art-loving millions in the United States but the court should un- derstand that in the profession of which she is an esteemed member it is con- | exploited after you have voluntarily stood for it, and an entirely different thing to be portrayed when you're not looking. Of such was the substance of the de- fense. The battery occurred on the stage of the California Theater the night of November 26, and the prosecu- tion alleges that the complaining wit- | ness was summoned to the playhouse by one of the attaches and had the manager's permission to go behind the cause his sense of modesty was shocked the latter averred, but because he was | photograph the lady who had fainted and advertise “The Runaways” by pub- lishing the picture.

His chagrin was kept in subjection, however, until she postponed her departure at the re- quest of several weazened riders of race horses who unanimously proposed that she join them at table and partake sou- | of wine.

That's the excuse he submitted to Judge Conlan, before whom he was accused of larceny, but it was scoffed at and he will answer in the Superior Court. CANNOT FIND THE DIANONDS What has E. A.

AUBURN, Dec. 5—When Adolph Weber appeared in court this morning | to plead to the charge of murdering his mother, Mary Weber, the court- room was crowded. Pale-faced, but with no lack of the steadiness that has marked his every | move since his arrest on the awful | charge of killing his entire family, | Weber gave the crowd a contemptuous look and then coolly took his seat be- | side his attorney. When the case of the “People versus Adolph Weber” was called he ralsed his head and smiled. Evidently the general words affected him but little, and he smiled again, this time derisively at the spec- tators craned their necks and pricked their ears as his attorney arose. The crowd was disappointed, and Weber knew it would be. The accused youth did not answer the court’'s ques- tion: “Do you wish to plead at this time? Instead his attorney made a plea for more time on the ground that the transcript of the testimony given at the preliminary hearing was not complete. & “My own notes,” said Attorney Ta- bor, Weber's counsel, “‘are not com- plete, and I wish to make a careful perusal of the court record before go- ing anv further into this case.” After listening to an objection by the district attorney the court granted Ta- bor’s request, continuing* the case un- til Wednesday. = The Grand Jury brought in an indict- ment this morning against Weber for the killing of his father. The body will not bring in any further indict- ments. Weber will have a preliminary hearing before a Justice of the Peace on the robbery charge. with the intent of defrauding credit-| The diamonds cannot be located. In May Read opened an office in the Crocker building. He was advanced $10,000 worth of jewelry, mostly dia- monds, by four flrms. The creditors are the California Jewelry Company, A. S. Eisenberg & Co., George Desen- fant and J. Nufmacher. When Read had been in business several months without making any returns the firms became anxious and put detectives on They got out an attachment and less than $1000 worth of stock. The books showed no records of sales. Read explained that he sold the jewelry but had lost the money gambling at the racetrack and playing poker. His cred-’ itors do not believe him. Read told them that he had made some sales of diamonds at the Oakland -racetrack four months ago. The track was closed at that time. They believe that Read has cached the diamonds, and have gaged Attorneys Schlesinger Humphries to nrosecute the case. It was revorted to the creditors by one of the Pinkertons, who shadowed the susplicipus man, that Read was seen to pass a sealed package to a man in Jefferson square just prior to his arrest. Read’s bail is fixed at $2500. He ad- mitted having obtained the jewelry, but says he sold it and lost the money gambling. He says he made partial re- turns for the dlamonds. Read is said to have a flancee in Fruitvale. 3 —_—— Let us help you settle the “Gift Ques- tion.” Come in and see our Christmas assortment of Kodaks. $5.00 up.

J. BUFFALO BANK CLOSES DOORS BUFFALO, N. Y. Dec. 5.—The German Bank of Buffalo was closed to-day Dby State Superintendent of Banking Kilburn because of a “run,” which began with the opening of the doors and continued to grow in volume as the day advanced. A big crowd of excited depositors gathered in front of the German Bank, seeking infor- mation. Officers were placed at the door and no one was allowed to enter. All this excitement had the inevitable resuit of sending nervous depositors hurying to the German-American | Bank, a kindred institution. | Soon after the announcement was | made that the German Bank had closed, the Buffalo Clearing-house As- scciation issued a statement that it would stand by the German-American | Bank and meet all demands made upon it. It was also announced that President Emery and two of the direc- | ters of the German-American Bank had resigned and that their piaces had | been taken by three wealthy Buffalo men. These two announcements had | a reassuring effect and several large ; deposits, which had been withdrawn, were replaced in the bank. Small de-, poesitors, however, continued to draw ' out their money and at 3 o'ciock near- 1y 100 persons were in line before the | cashier’'s window. All of them were paid before the bank closed for the a; ¥. Superintendent Kilburn is of the | opinion that the German Bank will | not resume business. In regard to the bank’s assets, he said: | “A great deal of the money is out on what might be designated as slow ' lcans. The deposits amount to be- tween $5,000,000 and $6,000,000, | About $3,000,000 of that sum repre- sents business that should have been done with a savings bank, rather than a discount bank, it being the accounts of small depositors.” —— e, Minnle Healey Case Delayed.

FRESNO, Dec. 5.—Coalinga expects | to experience a boom when a new pipe line is built to a point on the| San Joaquin River. The line is| planned by a New Jersey corporation, the Producers’ Union Pipe Line Com- pany, whose agent, Dr. Alexander Dol- las, has been in the oil flelds several weeks arranging the preliminaries and securing contracts. It is reported that 6,000,000 barrels have been signed for, and considerable more is promised as soon as the line has materfalized. The understanding is that a new pipe line will be run to a point on the San Joaquin from where the oil can be loaded into vessels and barges and shipped to San Francisco. The length of the line will be approxi- mately 100 miles, and will be at least eight-inch pipe, if not a ten-inch. Pre- liminary surveys have already been made by surveyors. It is said that the company was en- abled to sign up so liberally, because it offered 25 cents per oarrel for fuel oil of the same grade as that which is being sold for 15 to 20 cents per bar- is taken to mean that much drilling will be done in the flelds. When work on the new line will be commenced has not yet been given out. —_——————— AUTOMOBILE OVERTURN mobile containing six persons, from the CLff House by the south drive of Golden Gate Park last night, struck an em- bankment and overturned.
