MORE COAL I 0CK, OWNERS PENNST'3 SECOND VICE PRESIDENT PAID FOR HIS. BUT SOME OTHERS DID NOT. Philadelphia, May 17. Encouraged by his success in showing gifts of stocks and valuables to Pennsylvania railroad transportation officials and car dis tributors, special counsel for the Com mission William A. Glasgow, re doubled his efforts to prove that inde pendent coal companies were discrimi nated against in favor of other opera tors in the good graces of railroad of ficials.

John C. Trump, general superinten dent of transportation, stationed at Broad street station, was called to the stand this morning and closely ques tioned. He is the superior of George W. Creighton, George W. Clarke and otner su Dominates who admitted on the stand to accepting stock, checks and gifts of cigars, wines, from coal companies.

Why didn't you send out cards, or sheets, stating just how many cars you distributed among the operators? Don't you know that it should have been given publicity?" was asked. 'It never occurred to me that it was necessary," Mr. Trump replied. "Have the sheets you now post up any value?" "Not that I am aware of." Mr. Glasgow said: 'Do you recollect the time when coal was selling for $5 and $6 a ton at the mines, that the Pennsylvania railroad sold one thousand cars to the Berwlnd White Company and five hundred to the Keystone Coke Company? Do you call that abolishing individual Mr.

Trumps mining interests were then discussed. He held 400 shares in the "Carbon and Clairidge companies. Later the operators" of these companies went into a combination with the Keystone Coal and Coke Company. Mr. Trump also holds 200 shares in the At lantic Crushed Coke Just before Mr.

Trump was dismissed. Commissioner Cockrell advised him to agitate a reform movement, and his brother officials towards the ultimate abolition of the practice of not making public the ratings. Another coal mine magnate was brought to light when Charles A. Pugh, second vice president of the Pennsylvania, took the place Mr. Trump vacated.

According to his testimony he has 74 shares in Brudbaker Coal Company, which he bought for $67 a share; nine bonds of $500 each in the Aroma Oas and Coal Company; five bonds of $1000 each in the Pittsburg and Chicago Coal Company, and 607 Bhares and bonds vauled at $10,000 in smaller collieries on the Northwestern railroad. "Mr. Pugn, what do you do when a man asks for a siding on his property. Does that branch come under your supervision?" "I make inquiry into his case, and, as there is a sufficient output of coal we usually refuse to grant the request." "Why do you usually refuse to construct a siding?" Inquired Mr. Glasgow?" "Well, it is this way.

There isn't any vaiuely he described how he simply hnicht the stock but could not defi nitely state what were his reasons for making the investment. CASSATT DECLINES TO TALK ARRIVES IN LONDON.

CONTRADICTS THAYER ALTHOUGH HE DECLARED, WHEN ON THE STAND. THAT NONE HAD BEEN ALLOWED SINCE 1899, HEAD OF MORRISDALE COAX, COMPANY TELLS WHAT HE RECEIVED IN 1903. tBy Associated Press. Philadelphia, May 17. That the Penn sylvania Railroad Company gave re bate3 as recently as 1903 was the charge made today by Frank B.

Wigton, of the Morrisdale Coal Company, before the Interstate Commerce Commission. Wigton's statement caused something of a sensation because of the fact that, while the commission was in session in Baltimore, Vice President Thayer, of the Pennsylvania railroad, appeared be fore that body and stated that the company had made no allowances or concessions since 1S99. Mr. Wigton was the last witness called today. He gave a detailed statement of conditions in the soft coal regions and accused the Pennsylvania Railroad Company of discrimination in the allotment of coal cars, citing cases to substantiate his charges.

He was asked by counsel for the commission if he had any knowledge of rebating by the railroad company. Ho said in reply that since the retirement of W. H. Joyce, general traffic manager of the Pennsylvania railroad, inhere had been no rebating so far as he knew. Within a few months previous to the retirement of Mr.

Joyce, however, he said, he had received rebates amounting to from $7,000 to $20,000 on tidewater shipments. Mr. Joyce retired in June, 1903. Mr. "Wigton also named several other companies which, he said, had received rebates.

Charles E. Pugh, second vice president of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany, was one of the witnesses today. He was Questioned regarding his policy with regard to the placing of sidings Michael general fpv jlnteliuent of transportation, was examined con cerning the distribution of cars, and R. L.

Another important branch of the work of the institution Is its rescue work. There is a class of men who get belo.v the reach of the church.

Following the singing of a solo by Mrs. Edward Freehafer, the annual re port of Superintendent William White was presented, as follows: The time for presenting this our ninth annual report has arrived, and we are glad that pi ogress has been made in all branches of the work. We thank our Heavenly Father for the privilege of working together for another year in His servic and for the good of our less fortunate brethren. During the year two men united with the church, and one, a backslider, was reinstated and is now in trood standing. At the special services held during the fall 30 men re quested prayer.

The superintendent has been in correspondence with former inmates who have expressed their appreciation of what has been done for them. These are gratifying features, and show us that His word shall not return unto Him voi3." Our receipts at the Mission show an increase of $100. We were without an ash wagoti for some time or this item would be The sale of wood has increased by 760 barrels and we in need of additfonal space for developing this industry. An appeal has been made for funds to purchase adjoining property and has met with the usual generous response from our friens. We appreciate this renewed proof of confidence and support.

The figures for the year are interesting in many ways: Attendance all services 9,409 Meals served 18,885 Barrels wood sold 6,106 Number occupying 8,08 Number occupying shelter 2,513 We accommodated over 1,000 more men this year than last in the dormitory. For many week3 during the winter it was taxed to its utmost capacity, and on several occasions we were compelled to decline guests for want of room. This matter has been brought to the notice of our Ladies' Auxiliary, and will doubtless receive proper attention. Very encouraging, e.re the shelter figures, 2,613 as compared 3,301 last year, a decrease of 788.

BAILEY MAKES REPLY HE EXPLAINS HIS. PART IN JHB RATE BILL CONTROVERSY. Washington, May 17. Senator Bailey today presented In the Senate the documentary evidence in his possession tending to discredit the publishedstate ments that he had acted treacherously to his party and had attempted to prevent effective railroad rate legislation. It includes letters by Ex Senator Chandler and Secretary Loeb.

The date of the Chandler memorandum to the President. April 11, was two days before the Chandler Tillman negotia tions with the President had been open ed. Within those two days Chandler had ascertained that Bailey was not working with the so called "railroad nators" and so Informed the Presi dent, who thereupon directed Moody to open negotiations with Bailey as to the constitutionality of his no injunction amendment. This he did on April 13 and 14 and Bailey's active participation in the conferences dated from that time. Bailey said that no Democratic Senator knew anything about Chandler's memorandum until yesterday, "but," he said, with much feeling, "the President himself showed it yesterday to a Republican Senator and a Republican member of the House and 1" necessary I can call the names." Bailey said: "The President did riot consider that Chandler memorandum an impeachment of my good faith for three days after he asked me to confer with his Attorney General on a vital legal point in this controversy.

"I have no words to express my contempt for the man who treats with others whom he suspects of treachery and none but a traitor would do so. "I know the fortunes of war. A man the forefront must bear his brunt of battle and I am willing to take my share. I know that war means killing. If it be civilized warfare no complaint shall fall from my lips.

But at this time when the spirit of square dealing is more on the lips than in the hearts of even our political opponents should at least fight with the common fair ness of the prize fighter. They ought not to strike below the belt. Never before has any man charged me with double dealing ana trickery. And no man ever shall withoutincur ring my denunciation. I will brand nis face with the liar so that all men may know him and all honest men shun him." Although, as he declared, the Chand ler memorandum didn't Impeach his integrity.

Senator Bailey demanded to know a certain correspondent got access to it. "Was it obtained from the man to whom it was addressed?" he inquired. The Senate, without division, this af ternoon defeated the attempt to have natural or artificial gas pipe lines made common carriers. 1 I It is understood that the President will not attempt to revenge "himself by decapitating Chandler as president of the Spanish Treaty Claims Commission. Perhaps he would do so if his arch enemy had a long tenure of office be fore him," but as there are only three and a half months remaining of the Commission's life under the law, the President will probably let Mr.

Chandler serve out his The President recently extended the commission's term six months at Chandler's request. The court of claims, which many think should have, passed on the Span ish war claims in the first place, will take up the commission's work. Ell 11 Ml heme mm Third Annual Commencement of Evening High School is a Success. EXCELLENT PROGRAM RAJAH TEMPLE FILLED TO THE DOORS WITH FRIENDS AND RELATIVES OF THE GRADUATES, WHO FORFEITED PLEASURES DURING WINTER EVENINGS TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE. The warm weather notwithstanding, every seat in Rajah Temple was filled last evening upon the occasion of the third annual commencement of the evening high school class of 1906, of which there were eight members, as follows: Rose L.

Drexel, saleslady, C. K. Whitner L. Roy Frey, draughtsman. Textile Machine Works; Galen H.

Fries, clerk, Reading Iron Company; Charles E. Kaufman, stereotyper. Reading Eagle Company; William B. Miller, machinist, Reading locomotive shops; Edith M. Palm, operator, Richard E.

Meinig Milton I. Peck, clerk, Reading Railway Company; Harold A. Shirey, printer apprentice, Reading Times Publishing Company. The graduates, in mortarboards and gowns, occupied seats in the centre of the stage, while about them were ranged Superintendent Charles S. Foos, President J.

Edward Wanner, the mem bers of the faculty of the evening high school and the speakers of the evening. The stage adornment was very pretty. It consisted of streamers of crepe paper of the class colors red and white sus pended bell shaped' from the centre of the prosceneum, while about the footlights were grouped palms. Suspended in the prosceneum arch, was the class motto, "Tempore Uti." The exercises were opened a few minutes after 8 o'clock, when the Boys' High School orchestra, rendered Harry von Filger's "Moving Day" and "Wait Till the Sun Shines, Nellie." Edward W. James, a member of the School Board, who officiated as presiding officer of the evening, then made a brief introductory address in which he set forth the occasion for the He said the School Board has been encouraged in the establishment of the evening high school to such an extent that it has become a permanency.

The enrollment the past year was 450 and the attendance 300, and during the coming year no less than 600 are expected on the enrollment list with like attendance. ADDRESS OF PRINCIPAL. Prayer was offered by Rev. Henry H. Ranck, pastor of St.

Andrew Reformed church, after which Prof. Herbert R. Brunner, principal of the evening high school, was introduced. His appearance at the front of the stage was the signal for prolonged applause by the audience, but chiefly by the pupils of the evening high school, by whom he is held in the highest esteem. Professor Brunner said that three years ago when the first graduation exercises of the evening high school were held.

Dr. Harris, of Bucknell University, in an address said that if he correctly read the signs of the times the establishment of evening colleges, not for the accommodation of the young people alone but for persons advanced in years as well, seemed a certainty. The same prophecy was also made by Dr. Harris before the state teachers convention in this city, last year. Commenting on the prophecy of so prominent and well known an educator, Professor Brunner said that while he firmly believed the future would witness its fulfillment, the evening high school has thus far been the highest school reached.

To Superinr tendent Charles S. Foos was given the credit for working out the plans that made the establishment of the evening ICONTINCED ON FIFTH PAGE.1 The Test is in the Wear Our clothing wears.
