Up to the time of his announcement of Ills acceptance of the resignations of Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hyde the chairman had repeatedly declared his hands were tied until after the Hendricks report became public. ted Until State Organization is It w&» shown that Brown, a little over two years ago, had accepted J100 in gold from Mrs. Patrick Dougherty for his efforts to have her daughter, Lizzie, appointed a teacher In Shenandoah's public schools.

The report of the committee that visited the officials or the Lehigh Valley Coal Co. and the Temple Iron Co. was received, it being favorable to the merchants. The question of dollar gas was thoroughly aired, and it was left in the hands of the secretary to secure additional information. A very interesting game of base bail was played yesterday afternoon during the excursion of the Welsh Baptist Sunday school to Pernbrook park. In order to have some fun with them the single inon challenged their married comrades to a test of skill on the diamond and prepared for u. wek past to trim them in good style. In the game yesterday the married men showed themselves past masters In the art of base ball and in three innings, after batting one pitcher out of the box, they forced the single men to retire, the score being 3!i-4 in their favor. The officials of the game were: Umpires, Edward Perry and Abel Beyhon; scorer, William T. Watkins. The teams lined up as follows: Political and medical circles aro deeply interested In the organization of the new State Department of Health. This Is particularly true with regard to the appointment of the ten district deputies. Commissioner Dixon is familiarizing himself with the work of the department. i.vnuia This is the result of a bitter fight that lias been waged between the former diplomat and the assistant secretary of state. It places Mr. llowen out of otfieinl life after more than twenty years of efficient service for the government. It leaves Looiuis, his opponent, in a none too comfortable position, even though he is exonerated from any wrongdoing. It is predicted here that it will eventuuily force Mr. Looinis out of office and that he probably will resign. One thing can almost be regarded as certain, that his ambition to occupy a leading place iii the diplomatic corps as an ambassador of the United States will never be realized.1 good •s that lere is Until he has its organization well under way he probably will not announce tile appointment of district deputies. In fact, this announcement may not be made for two or three months. Regarding this matter Commissioner Dixon says: "I thought X ought to give him a present for what he did," said the witness, "und I gave him $100. Brown said he did not come for that, but I thought I ought to do something for him. I told him I was giving It to him for getting the school for my daughter." lird of •enicly Several other matters of interest to the merchants came up for consideration, but no definite action was taken on them. •s that ham The association is in a very nourishing condition.

This will permit sanitary work to be promptly and effectively continued throughout the state while the new department is being carefully nr. ii and It was evident that Mr. Morton had made up his mind very quickly, for when at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon he was asked if there were any developments In Equitable matters he said there was nothing he could say that would be interesting. At 5 o'clock he sent for the newspaper men to come to his office. He stood for a moment before them without speaking and then, as If he had come to a sudden conclusion, he said: The defendant offered no testimony in the case. isposi •oport Single men—W.

In his letter the president approves Mr. Taft's report oil Ills findings and conclusions in the ease and scathingly arraigns Minister Bowen, declaring that ids conduct "is especially reprehensible," that Mr. Bowen asked one of Ills witnesses to enter the employ of a certain company for the purpose, "in plain words, of "stealing" documents which he hoped might incriminate Mr. Loomis and that Mr. Bowen has "evidently for many months—Indeed, for the last two years—devoted himself' to hunting up scandal and gossip until it became a monomania and caused him "to show complete disloyalty" to the country he represented.' It is accepted as a matter of course by military experts tliat when the entrapped brigades of the Uussian army are surrounded they will be captured with small loss. Marshal Oyama's troops not only are more mobile than that part of the enemy's forces, but apparently they will not be harassed by cavalry. Lieutenant General Mistchenko's Cossacks, it is reported, have been withdrawn to the west of the Peuinsular railway to be used in raids against the advancing Japanese left. They are likely to be more effective in the open country toward the Mongolian border, but the wisdom of General Linevlteh in leaving his center and left largely without cavalry support is questionod.

Mr. Untermyer, who had been in Boston, returned to his country home in Vonkers la t night, where he said the acceptance of Mr. Hyde's resignation was in no sense a surprise either to Mr. llyde or to him.

He is now serving his second term. He has been severely criticised in connectton with his conduct of the new court house business by the present board of commissioners, and it was supposed that he would not be a candidate for reelection, he not having registered in time to have his name printed in the official call for the county convention.

He holds, however, that Mr. Loomis lias been "most cruelly slandered," commends him for the self restraint with which he has met the charges and points out that Mr. Loouiis' bitter experience in this case makes it unnecessary to point out the moral that a minister cannot afford in the country to which he Is accredited to make personal investments.
