SACRAMENTO, April 25.—Senator Harry Bunkers made a sorry exhibi- tion of himself in the Superior Court during his trial for bribery this after- noon, and was sevérely reprimanded by Hart from the bench in the presence of the jury. Bunkers was called to the stand by the defense to enter a general denial of the charge that he had accepted money from Joseph Jordan to influence his official action with respect to cer- tain building and loan associations. On cross-examination District Attor- ney Seymour guestioned Bunkers as to his earlier occupations. “I don’'t know what I did for a living then,” respond- ed the deposed Senator, “I was too damned young.” Judge Hart wheeled quickly around | in his chair in astonishment.

Bunkers tried to excuse himself by saying he had used the word ‘“darned” and did not desire to be profane. The court told him that even that word would not do. Bunkers disregarded the warn- ing, however, and was again repri- | manded by the Judge. Later on Bun- kers referred to some women compan= ions as “Fairles,” and was once niore reminded by the court that he was too fllppm-n in his speech: ‘You met Joseph Jordan in a K street saloon one night, didn’t you?” asked the District Attorney. “‘Me; not me,” replied Bunkers in a manner of affected lightness. Again in response to a question as to whether anybody else was present on a certain severi- | |erops also are doomed.

OMAHA, Neb,, Aprfl 25.—Thomas { Henry Tibbles, cnndidnte at the last election for Vice President on the Na- tional Populist ticket, is preparing to put his financial theories to a practi- cal test. With the backing of wealthy | friends whose views on sociological topics correspond with his own, he will found a bank in New York which will be conducted on the prin- ciple that every depositor has a right to know every detail of the bank’s transactions. “I believe,” said Mr. Tibbles, to-day, | “that every bank should be a mutual institution. My statements will show to each depositor where his money is and how it is to be taken care of. Ats | present the gamblers take the money of the people and use it in speculative and dangerous deals. “Honesty and publicity will be the bulwarks of the institution.

Dr. James Montgomery of Trinity Church, this city, intends to issue an edict declaring that the doors of the church shall never be locked and that the pews of the sanctuary shall be at the disposal of whoever may have no other place whereon to rest his head. To-day Dr. Montgomery said that, When eight years old and a newsboy in Minneapolis, he found himself penni- less one night and without shelter in a storm. He tried to_enter a church, Rangers.

The HENEY'S POINTS ARE SUSTAINED PORTLAND, April 25.—Without ex- ception every contention made by United States District Attorney Fran- cis J. Heney in his argument against the plea in abatement filed by United States Senator John H. Mitchell, is sup- ported by Judge Bellinger of the Unit- ed States District Court, who to-day rendered a decision of about 9000 words on the plea in abatement. The contention of Heney that George Giustin, a member of the Federal Grand Jury which indicted Senator Mitchell, was duly qualified to serve, was supported. The defense contended that Giustin was not a citizen of the United States. Judge Bellinger holds that Heney proved Giustin’s citizenship by means of affidavits. Senator Mitchell was present in the | courtroom when the decision was read. That he was greatly disappointed was evident to all who watched him as the decision in effect decides all the pleas in abatement filed by the numerous | defendants in the land frauds cases| and removes all obstacles to their trial on the real issues.

A prohibition movement in Wl.llel' County was begun some years a;o. and the feeling has been intense. An election was held in Waller County on April 20, and the Prohibitionists, with whom the Pinckneys were affiliated, were successful. The Prohibitionist League was called together last night to wind up its affairs and disband..
