Tho meeting to-day was expected to Roosevelt forces which might become highly important es foreshadowing the line of fighting that will be oarried into the convention, The Taft leaders, ac- cording to reports from various sources, had decided to use their claimed ma- jority of the committee to seat Taft delegates in nearly all of the many con- tests. Senator Boles Penrose of Pennsylvania and ‘al other Taft leaders expresved eagerness to get down to the actual work of hearing contests late to-day. It ts possible that the first contests on the Met, those trom Alabama, will be called before night.

Mr. Sherer also expressed his belief in the k lity of the Clearing House certificates in circulation during the 1907 panic, ‘They were not circulating mediums —they were merely ‘I O Us'," he said, Q. Do you accept the book of Joseph G ‘annon on clearing houses as an au- thority? A. Yes. Q.

MEN LOS MONEY, HESAYS BUT WANT STANDS Simon Kayton Tells Aldermen His Company Lost $111,- 000 in Three Years. Gimon Kayton, President of the Kay- ton Taxicab and Gar Company, op- erating forty taxicabs and paying more than $8,000 a year for specially privileged stands, told the Special Committee of the Board of Aldermen under oath to- in three years In the taxicab business and that none of the big taxicab com- panies is making profits to-day. He rted that the average car of the company costs $4 more a day for opera- tion and upkeep than its revenues, Taxicab companies have a most dis- mal prospect, regardless of what sort of ordinance the Board of Aldermen Mr. Kayton earnestly declared. He requested the committee to visit his | office and go over his books. He vigor- ously combatted the suggestion of Al- derman Marks that the private stands be abolished and declared that, not- withstanding his company's daily lo that dt is atill doing business at the-old stands. “New York City differa from every European city," said the witness. “Over there the currents of traffic cross and criss-cross all day, 80 that there ts slight dead mileage. Over here it seems all New York goes in one direction at cer tain times of the gay. In th morning the stream {is south, At evening it northward, and from 7 te $ o'clock it is southward again, and then after 10 o'clock back north It goes. I'll venture a bet that out of say 1,000 taxicabs which go north after 10 o'clock P. M, not seventy-five of them have pas- sengers on the return.” He was certain that the outlay of $22,000 in three years to hotel and res- taurant owners for privileged stands has nothing to do with his company losses. “If the private stands represented of 2 per cent. a month, #0 that they are useless at the end of four years, It takes 26 per cent. of the original cost, the witness said, for repairs yearly. THINKS THEY MAY GET BACK THEIR LOSSES. “The only way is to economize,” de- clared Mr. Kayton. “Get all the ma- chines you can under one roof. Leave us the private stands. Then, maybe, under an economical adminiatration, we may met back again what we have lost.” Mr. Kayton declared his company had at one time reduced rates. His losses in this period were %,6w, he swore.

It was a collosal failure and we went back to the 89 and 4 rate which ts now the regular rat Under cross-examination by M. A. Warren for the “independents,” Mr. Kayton could not say if his chauffeur: had collected only half of what t He didn't know removed or hidden, or if the driver had informed the pa- tron of the reduction. He never ceived but half of what the cab r tered anyhow. George H.
