A thirty-nine-thousand-mfle-jag was brought to these fair shores, to-day, aboard the tramp steamer St. Quentin, six weeks out of Buenos Ayres. The author and propretor of this distance champion of a jaz is Joseph R. Jordan, of Santa Barbara, Cal. He was only medly enthustastic over hia possession, for the reason that he had been com- pelled to tuck away and button it up in his tog book, when he sailed from the Beautiful “Airs in charge of pt.

Skipper Alken, however, was merely obeying the behest of young Jordan's relatives, who had located him in Buenos Ayres and provided for his safe-conduct home. The Jordan jag set out from San Francisco two years ago. It made Its rat stop in Japan, when its owner woke and wondered where he was. He had similar awakenings in Sinagpore, Bombay, Calcutta, Port Sald, Cairo, Liverpool and divers and sundry other Ports. It was a thirty-seven-thousand-mile- Jay that he fetched into Valparaiso, Where he spent a few months getting in touch with his millionaire father. When father sent along a hus! check and a hurry call to come home, Jordan crossed the Andes to Buenos Ayres. In the course of this little juant he ran his jag up to thirty-nine-thousand miles until he boarded the San Quen- tin, In Brooklyn, friends put the world wanderer aboard a west-bound train this afternoon. — a enees TRIES TO PROVE CHILD HERS, SHOWS “SAMPLE” DAUGHTER.

HOT ATTACK ON ROBIN. Counsel for Ex-City ‘Cham- berlain Declares the State’s Star Witness Is Insane. A verdict In the case of Charles H. Hyde, former City Chamberlain, tried on a charge of bribery in connection with the allegation that he~ forced Joseph G. Robin, head of the Northern Bank, to loan $180,000 to the crumbling Carnegle Trust Company when that in- stitution’s capital had been impaired, may be reached before midnight. Max D. Steuer, assoriated in the de- fense with John 8B. Stanchfleld, ummed up for Hyde this morning, and Assistant District-Attorney Frank Moss made the final argument for the State, closing late thts afternoon. It was believed Justice Goff would at once deliver his charge and that the case would go to the jury by 8 o'clock. Mr. Moss in his closing argument at- tacked the testimony on ‘Robin's sanity Introduced by the defense. Hoe insisted that Robin was sane, that his story was true, and that Hyde was guilty of accepting a bribe which was given to him in the nature of a loan, He at- tempted to rip the allbi set up by Hyde, declaring {t was full of holes, Mr. Steuer, in summing up, assailed Robin for his schemes of high finance. He declared the defense had shown that Robin was suffering from such mental delusions as to make his story unworthy of bellef. SAYS ROBIN MADE THE LOAN TO SAVE HIMSELF. He pointed out that Robin was deeply involved In the affairs of the Carnegie Trust Company, and that the failure of the Carnegie Trust would have resulted in the failure of the Northern Bank. This, Mr. Steuer contended, was the im- pelling motive for the $190,000 loan by the Northern Bank to the Carnegie Trust, and not any threat or promise from Hyde, which threat and promise, the State alleges, constitute the bribery charge against the former City Cham- berlain. Mr, Steuer mad Hyde no transaction other than $130,000 loan, he continued, “there has been not one whit of evidence here that a aingle unlawful dolar crossed the palm of Hyde.” CARNEGIE HAD CONFIDENCE IN CUMMINS, He went over the relations between Cummins and Hyde, declaring there was nothing of & questionable nature in them. He said Cummins stood eo well in 1910 that he was able to borrow $2,- 000,000 trom Andrew Carnegie. “No wonder,” added Steuer, “Cum- mins could get city deposits from Mr. Hyde for the Carnegie Trust Company.” Steuer then entered into @ vitriolic at- tack upon Robin. “Robin,” he said, “wrote @ letter to Mr. Hyde commending Cummins. Now ‘there is no honest man in the world, ace cording to Robin. Robin has attacked the honesty of J. Plerpont Morgan and August Belmont. He attacked Clark Williams, former State Superintendent of Banking, at whose home Hyde met Cummins. He has attacked former Dis- trict-Attorney’ Jerome, swearing Mr. Jerome had told him to felgn in He has attacked the honor of Mr tice Seabury, tried for Jus declaring that honorable jurist defiled his robes of office by ac- cepting a plea of gullty even after Robin had told him he was not gutlty. There has been no man too high or honorable for Robin to assail,”* Mr, Steuer then took erable length the testimony offered by the defense to show that Hyde was at his home in Roslyn, L. I, at the time Robin swore he was forced, in Hyde's Wall street office, to loan $130,000 to the Carnegie Trust.

The pardoned former lawyer sat across from Mr. Olcott and as questions were hurled at him he answered them readily, although never in haste. “As to our future plans,” said Mr. Olcott, conchuding the introduction, “we are not ready to say just what we are going to do. The matter is one for long consultation. It is not our purpose to cloak our plans, but it is too early to expect after this, our first consultation, to make any definite statement in regard to the last will made by the late William Marsh Rice.” At this moment Judge Olcott's telephone bell rang and a clerk In- formed him that Mrs. Patrick wished to speak to him.
