VIrH Neat, Its originator and former President. yesterday In the Federal Bulldln before United States Com ml loner Rldffwar. All the accused were on band with the exception of E. Virgil NeU who hat not yet been raptured by the Poet Office In spectors. It waa brought out at the bear Ins that Neal had written a letter to Post Office Inopector Charlea B.

Enteman. who has a warrant for his arrest, that he Intended to lie low and see what happened to his co-defendants before he Kara the Post Office authorities a chance to gtt him. The attorneys for tbe defense demanded that the letter be shown them, but the Post Office Inspector declined on the (round that it contained some Information which he was not ready to make pub-lie at this time. The envelope waa placed In evidence. It showed that Neat's letter hsd been mailed at the General Post Office, tbe headquarters of the prosecution.

The hearing- attracted a number of physicians. Among; these were Dr. Floyd President of the New York County Medical Society; Dr. J. Van D.

Young. Secretary of that organization, and Dr. Henry Oraham MacAdam, mho will (rive expert testimony on' behalf of the society to show what composed the remedies of the Force of Life Company for which powers to raise the dead were claimed. Champ 8. Andrews, counsel fer the New York County Medical Society, and John 8.

Cooper, his assistant, were present to aid Assistant United States District Attorney 8. Clarence Houghton In the prosecution; John J. Vause of IBS Broadway, counsel for the three defendants, was reinforced by more legal talent. There appeared with him ex-8tate Senator Clarence Lexow. John Delahunty.

and Forbes J. Hennensy. Ocn. James R. O'Belrne, President of tbe Fore of Life Chemical Comtany, did not appear.

Ex -Sena tor Lexow started by asking for an adjournment of two weeks to give the defense opportunity to determine on lines of cross-examination and otherwise prepare their case. Your Honor has before you not old and hardened criminals." he said. but men mho for the first time In the annals of crime are charged with a criminal offense. One of the defendants, Mr. Will- I lams, bas been resident of this community for many years, and has occupied positions of trust with many corporations.

I cannot believe that It is your Honor's desire that stigma, should be placed on him and the corporations with which he Is Identified should be besmirched lor lack of proper time to make smple preparation for the defense. A conspiracy la charged here, and I want to draw your Honor's attention to the fact that one party to the alleged conspiracy Is absent. It Is of vital importance to the defemro that he should be here when an exatr'natlon is had into these charges. We are. If possible, more anxious than the gentlemen on the oilier stile to have him here.

He has been harged In the statements made with being th head and front of this concern now on trial, and we are making efforts to have him produced In court with th other defendants." Commissioner Rldgway said that the defendants who had been arrested a week ngo. Dr. Hs'ley and Mrs. Wilson and Treasurer Williams, who had Riven himself uo two or three davs Inter, must have had ample time to confer with their -oiinsei. as ior tie said.

Depew Is ill with a cold, his condition Is not in any way serious. Then they added that, considering his T3 years and present Indisposition. Senator Depew had decided cancel all social engagements for this Winter. Senator Depew caught cold in a rainstorm la Washington two weeks ago. He consulted physicians there, but his condition didn't readily respond to treatment.

Last Wednesday evening, therefore, he came home to 27 West Fifty-fourth Street and consulted New York doctors. ariS. although he la able to go out of ths bouse dally, he has not entirely recovered. drove In Central Park yesterday morning and afternoon, and will return to Washington on Sunday evening to resume his duties In th Senate. Chauneey M.

Depew, made this statement to a Tmii reporter yeaterday: Father is indisposed with a cold, but there is absolutely no ground for senaa-tlonal reports that his health has broken down, lie drives out each day accompanied by Mr. Paulding, his nephew or myself. Ills spirits are good, and. aside from his cold, he is well. Of course, he must be careful, and he has decided to break off ail dinner and other social engagements for the Winter.

There' is nothing about his condition to alarm his friends, lie is all right." Charlea C. Paulding said: "Senator Depew has a slight cold which he contracted In Washington. Otherwise he Is In good condition, and he will 'return to Washington on Sunday night and will be in his seat In the Senate on Monday at noon. There la nothing unusual in nis trip here. Ever since he has been in tbe Senate he has mad these weekly trips to New York.

But after receiving these letters I do not fe1 in a proper frame of mind to H-rttnce you to-day.

Vanderllp of tbe National City Bank, will discuss at tbe Controller's of fice this morning the movement tbe Controller has started In the hope of collecting back taxes which he believes are due on the old Custom House property In Wall Street, now owned by tbe bank. Mayor McClcllan said yesterday that he was Interested In the attitude taken by tha Controller, snd that be had called In President O'Donnel of the Tax Doard for a talk on the subject.

President O'Donnel told the Mayor that he did not believe there was any way the city could collect these sums believed to be duo. as the bank never had actually, taken title from the Government. He said he had an opinion from Corporation Counsel De-lany nearly two years ago, advising that the city could make no move. Ths Times has received this letter In relation to the grounds put forward by the Controller for his Intended suit: To Editor of The Xew York Timet: I hold no brief tar th Vatlonal Cltv Bank. and I tru.t that It mar hara la mt any and all taxa for which It la liable.

But I beg that you win Indulge me In disoentlng from ons or two statements of fact or conclusions stated as facts whl.J appear In an article In to-day's Issue rettardlng the ssJe of the old Custom House to the National city ban for aa agreed price of a.l.S0S.Ni. In the course of ths article It Is said: aetnal payment ever was mad by tbe bank, as the Institution Is a Federal depository and has on depoxlt from $3,000,000 to belonging to ths Federal OoYern-ment." The full fare Is mine, and it Is to that statement that I would tak exception, as slso to the Implication that the fact that the City Bank is a Government depository In som way affects the question cf payment. If I. being a depositor In a siven bank, sell to that bank anything, stationary let us fay, at aa agreed prtc of floo, and la settlement therefor receive from the bank Its che.lt for (list, and then dejjoslt that check to my own credit In ths same bank, will any one nutation ths fa-t of parment? Suppose thst Instead of glvinlg a chock, ths bank notifies me that my account has been credited with $10O, Is not ths payment Just as much a fact aa In the other rase? In either case the bank's resources have been decreased and It a liabilities increased by fioo. In either cas ths bank must pay ms Slow-on demand.

Now this seems to be exactly the position of things between the Federal uovernmeni ana tha National City Bank. Tha money paid for th Custom House has been all alonit In ths City Bank to the credit of th Oovcrnment and subject to a Treanury draft. Bv Its lai statement to the Control- the Katloaal City Bank reports only som t'J SjnniOn Government money on deposit Which rcther contradicts th statement of tour article that at no ttnw alnre the Gov eminent was credited with th S3.21fi.tmo on th purchase has the Government balsnt-e In ths ban been drawn below that fisure." It would seem as thoush th Treasury De-Mruunl had bera dotna cotirlderable draw ing. But whether ths Treasury draws umn ths City Bank or lets Its money lis there on deposit, ths payment of a certain sum ws made aD th Government received credit for that sum on ths books of th bank. That seems to me to be beyond controversy.

As an old and constant reader. I feel sure that thee statmenta slipped Into THS TIMES without their writer Intending all that they mvm. but becaas. whatever waa Intended. they seem likely to mislead.

Frank Witt Ramsey, who died here of pneumonia last night, never received any particular public recognition of his services. But It was his work, more than that of any other man, that made possible 'the performance of th American contingent in the Boxer campaign in North China in 1000. It was the foresight and energy he displayed as Quartermaster of the Ninth Infantry in outfitting tbe regiment for this service, and afterward, as Brigade Quartermaster on Gen. Chaffee's staff, in handling the transportation of the force. In the march of the allies to the relief of Peking, that distinguished him smong the younger officers of the army.

He never was rewarded by promotion, either in too volunteers or tne regular establishment. Everybody In tbe army knew Ramsey. He was a hustler who put things tbrougn with a cheerful and Infectious disregard of obstacles that made men wno had served la commands to which he was attached remfinwr him gratefully long afterward.

Th annual dinner of the West Side Republican Club, which had been widely heralded as an epochmaking event in city politics, was held at the Waldorf- Astoria, last night. It had been said that Lemuel E. Quigg had purchased fifty tickets for the dinner and would have as his guests tliut num ber of Republican legislators. Only one Assemblyman, however, was present as Mr. Qulgg's guest.

lie was Assemblyman George B. Agnew. Among those who had been Invited but who could not attend were Gov. Higgins, Sherman Morcland. leader of th Repub licans In the Assembly, snd Congressman Watson of Indiana, who had been put down for speeches.

Those at the guest tabl Included Congressman "BennL At. tornev Oeneral Mayer, Herbert Parsona. Congressman Olcott. Ellas Goodman, and John Van Wormer. Mr.

Van Wormer. who made the first speech, said there was nothing the matter with the Republican Party In the City of New York except a few errors In Judg ment on tne part oi us leaaers. Attorney General Mayer spoke of the investigations under way or contemplated: 1 want to say that I'm In favor of investigating anything that anybody wunts to investigate. he said. "If our Democratic- friends have anything against us let them come on with their chargoa.

the Ninth infsntry went to the Philippines, on tne outoreak of insurrection. Hamsey was Regimental Quartermaster, itueii Gen. Hales uegan th series of expeditions for the occupation of tne southern provinces of Luzon and of Mindanao, he selected Ramsey for his Chief Quartermaster, it wua a terrUlo Job, but Ramsey made good. When tbe first of these expeditions that to the Camarinea undertook to land In San Miguel Bay a slight miscalculation got tbe boats to the beach Just a few minute too late. The tide had begun to ebb.

and strip of thin mud, a hundred yards wide and growing wider, separated th boats from solid around. The men Jumpeu overboard and struggled through tne mud up to tneir necas. it seemeu impossible for tbe Quartermaster to get anything landed, but he did. Tbe expedition had an alleged pilot, who ran his boat aground trying to get across the bar at mouth of the Bicol River. Ramsay got a sailor from a gunboat to handle ihe wheel and took the boat tip himself.

He did not know anything about ships, all he knew was that be was going up tne river. Then he baa tne cnannei marked by stakes, and set to work to dis charge the transports. The ships had been loaded st Manila without regard to the order in which they were to be discharged, ana stun ror every port touched was In the hold of eacn vessel, htamsev played in piano in th cabin of the Atheoan. sang songs with his fellows, kept everybody good-natured. and worked twenty-four hours a day until th thing was done, men ne went up 10 Kueva Caceres.

loaded a string of wagons. nnd hlkeo off down the country after a hungry column that was clamoring ior something to eat. wnen tne Nintn was.oraerea to unina for the Boxer campaign. Ramsey asked to be ordered to hia regiment, and Gen. Bates consented.

Ramsey and Col. Llscum together persuaded Gen. MacArthur to glvo the Ninth two or three extra escort wagons for heavy transportation, with the necessary mules, a pack train of fifty trained mules, and several lignt wagons and ambulances, as well as som extra horses for officers' mounts, tien. Mac- Arthur was short of transportation himself, but he yielded to Ramsay's arguments. Then Ramsey asked for the slx-montnsr supply of clothing.

He got khaki ami hat and shoes and blankets, unaerciotning. anl all a soldiers outfit. Then tie got Col. Liscum to decline to sail for China until all the transportation and equipment were aboard shio. And so the Nintit reached Taku Bay a fully eoulpoed fight ing organisation.

The first things barked waa the transDortatlon. and when the wagons and animals were ashore the men followed. The Ninth marched Into Tlen-Tsin witn Its own transportation, and with clothing suppues that gladdened tne nearts ot a good many ot ita friends. It supplied some of the marine who had been hustled away without equipment, and It even supplied some khaki to the English. It divided its transportation with the Fourteenth, which arrived a week or so later, far ahead of Its own transportation, whto uld not get up in time to start with tha relief column for Peking.

Ram sey had the horses when Gen. Cbaf feo came a'ong to take command ana nau no mounts for himself or staff. The civilian teamstera who had been taken on for the Job when they thought It was a snap, concluded that It was too strenuous and tried to quit. Ramsay put them in the guardhouse, and they concluded to get back to work. He said it was Just as much of a crime for a civilian to desert in the.

face of the enemy as for a soldier. Gen. Chaffee chose Ramsey for his Chief Quartermaster and tho methods which had been successful with the regiment were promptly put Into operation with the brigade. -Kverybody but the Americans laughed at the big wagons and huge mules in our transportation column. Knglinh.

French. Germans, Japanese, Russians, and all the rest threw up their hands and said, You'll never get to Peking with that outfit." They talked about the terrific roads to be encountered, and Ramsey laughed In his turn. They said he would have to organize trains from the country with Peking carts, Manchu ponies or mules, and Chinese drivers. The Japanese had already scoured the country clean of such transportation. The American train was the onlv one In the whole relief column to reach Peking without the loss of a hoof or a wheel.

The dav of the march from Ho-PI-Wu to Mah-To was one of a terrible, blistering Auaust sun. men went crazy irom tne heat, some died, and otners fell exhausted. In the morning as ne was readv to lave Ho-8i-Wu. Ramsey ssked for his orders. and Urn.

una nee toio mm to go to Mah To and camp, htamsey started, round a side road free from the pres of trans portation of Japanese, and Russians, and kept going. The soft sand that. It had been so freely predicted, would ston his mules, did make hard going; but by clock tnat anernoon namsey waa In camp in Mah-To. But the men of the column could not make the distance. Night overtook them still several miles short, and they went Into bivouac In cornfields.

There was no wagon train, and the hungry men bewailed their fate. Chaf fee, in a rage, sent out men to rind Ram sey: but they could not. it did not occur to them that he could have gone through when they failed. In the morning they got to Mah-To. and there was Ramsey, hitched up and ready for orders.

The backers of the Argentine Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of the Rio de la Plata say that within a year they will be sending messages from Argentina to Italy and Ireland. It Is expected that the cable rates between this city the Argentine Republic will thus be oonsid erably reduced. George H. Monroe of the firm of Monroe Monroe. Broad Street, has Just returned from Buenos Ayres.

where he has been engaged for te last two months or ranlzlns and financing tbe new 'branch of the company. The cable toll la now ll.Ol In gold per word. Most of the messages are sent by Panama or Bermuda. Mr. Monroe spoke of one merchant who spent last year 1160,000 In cabling.

The new company, he says, will do business at much lower rates, and it Is expected that this will result beneficially to the country and to Importers of Argentine products. That the people of Argentina have welcomed the wireless company Is evidenced bv the fact that S7WMS) stock offered through the Italian Bank there and the London and Brazilian Bank was oversub scribed within ten days. Tne capital stock of the company is S8.750.000. SEAGATE WIRELESS STATION. Head Keeper Snyder and SmKes the Rhinoceros Celebrate Together.

Final Link In Chain That Heralds Liners 1,500 Milss Away. The Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company announced yesterday the opening of a new station.

The first message wss sent from this station to Capt. Hays of the White Stsr liner Majestic on Thursday afternoon. The station has been as a part of the gatehouse at Seagate. Outside it is. a mast ISO feet high, from which the wires are strung, and which lead Into the operating room.

The station is connected with all points In the United States by telegraph lines, and the Marconi apparatus Is of the latest pattern, and pro vided with a new attachment to prevent Interference by any Other wireless sys tem. The location or the ststion necessitates the Installation of short-distance apparatus only at the present time and the station therefore has an effective forwarding range of 200 miles. Its receiving apparatus is capable of handling messages from any distance. The new atation forma the final link in the chain of stations whereby all ths biff Atlantic liners are In communication shore uninterruptedly for between sixty and seventy hour from their New York docks. Incoming vessels first get Into touch with Cape Race, Newfoundland, when 1,300 miles away from Sandy Hook.

Before they lose touch with Cape Race they have picked up 8abl.Island. off ui. Nova Scotia coast; before dropping Sable Island they have opened communication with Slasconsetl. ana men tney are suc-I cesslvely in communication with Saga-j ponack. Babylon, and Seagate.

It was to have been a veritable Tammany lovo feast for the edification of Charles F. Murphy, who was to review the procession.
