HEARING PROVES TAME. OPPOSITIOX COLLAPSES. and Rabbi Wise Defend Anii-GamUing Bill. to The 1 March practical collapse of rpen opposition to the anti-race track Rambling bills as manifest at the hearing this afternoon before the Senate Judiciary Committee on the Dr.ly bill of series which is still in committee-that amending the Percy-Gray law by Mrtkin- out the exclusive penalty under which racetrack Rambling has been practically legalli.cd since ISOS. setting and the hearing itself differed vastly from the two previous ones held before the and Assembly Codes committees.

The effect of the Assembly Codes Committee's reporting both the Percy -Gray law repenl bill and the Penal Code amendment and the Senate Codes Committee reporting the Code amendment showed in the attitude at the people. The array of well dressed voncn, bookmakers and distinguished lawyers lacking. The enormous throng which filled every corner of the Assembly chambers at the previous hearings was represented by a scanty row of spectators who could have been put Into a hall room. The scenic effect had been used to lend emphasis to arguments for racetrack interests at the hearing Isefore the Codes committees was entirely abcrnt.

Auerbach. who has fought the bills in tuber years. There were no former Governors to defend t'pe racetrack interests. Nor were any new arguments advanced against the proposition. Mr.

Auerbach repeated his criticism of the action of Governor Hughes in giving out letters and talking on racetrack gambling at fiublic meetings. He traced the racetrack situation from the Ives pool law, passed in 18S7. the meaning of the framers of the constitution when they said that "appropriate laws" should be passed to prevent gambling, and dissected the decision of the courts in upholding the constitutionality of the Percy-Gray law. "I speak with all due respect to the Governor this Ftate when I say that his duty is to recommend legislation," said Mr. Auerbach.

if the Governor (toes beyond his constitutional rights in any way, by special recommendations and messages to the Legislature or toy speeches on public platforms, he oversteps law which is laid down between the various branches of the government. Although the Governor may be right in his view on this question, his view is no better than that of any other Individual." Bitter criticism directed at the Governor fcecause of his characterization in a special message to the Legislature of the racetrack interests as men who fatten on wretchedness. Edwin S. Comstock. of Rensselaer.

the State Association of County Agricultural Societies, and Ass-'mblynian Xorthrup. rejiresenting the Agricultural Society of Dutchcss County, stated that the organizations they represented were opposed to the passage of the fcills. The new speakers for the bill -were the Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst and Rabbi Stephen Dr.

Parkhurst said the question was one between the constitution and the financial of the racetrack a very question. "The constitution distinctly forbids gambling every kind, and it also enacts that measures ehall be passed appropriate to that statute," eaid "I am not a lawyer, and for that rea- Fon i may be laboring under an advantage. I read the English language as other common do. When I read that appropriate laws Shall be passed I think read it with 95 per cent ssi the peoP Ip that laws shall be passed to such gambling." Tlabbi Wise defended Governor Hughes in ar'owing and attacked the position taken CARICATURE OF CARUSO PLAYING THE PIANOLA DRAWN BY HIMSELP (From Caruso's Forthcoming Book of Caricatures) CARUSO'S Opinion of The PIANOLA The AEOLIAN COMPANY: Gentlemen I have just heard the Pianola perform a difficult musical work, and the effects are not only musical and artistic, but simply astounding. The sudden change from the most delicate pianissimo to fortissimo passages is almost human.

He said that after last hearing he had a talk with August Bolmont. in which Mr. Belmont paid that the amount of wagers each year amounted to about Mr. Belmor.t paid that it had vvr i far beyond our expectations." according to Dr. Laidlaw.

Mr. Auerbach asked for another hearing for the employes of ihe racetracks, and Chairman Davis took the application under consideration. Senator Agnew to-day served notice that at some future time he would move to take up the code amendment already reported to restore It to original form, making it take effect immediately. He may do this to-morrow if th( Fenate gets Into general orders. The two biMs are expected to be on the Assembly calendar to-morrow, ready for discussion in order of second reading.

They are expected to be passed next week. Friends of the measures, the apparent sailing. lest they strike somo snap. Thi-y say that the greatest danger to them now is overconfidence. Seemingly the racing and the gambler? have abandoned the fight, but all Hughes men here are paying heed to subterranean rumblings in the Senate which may portend trouble for these measures.

NEW-YOftK DAILY TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. MAHtHIJim PROBE JACKSON. SAKE HAS RESOLVTIOS. rst Steps for a Legislative Investigation Tmkem.

By Telegraph to Tribune-. I Albany, March steps toward a legislative investigation of the recent activities of Attorney General Jackson, to be followed, aeaattjr. by other action against him. weje taken to-day when Senator Martin Saxe, of New York, introduced a concurrent resolution for a legislative committee to investigate the Attorney General's course in connection with the financial panic. Important banking and financial whose Identity Senator Saxe will reveal at the proper time, are behind this move.

They have been prompted to It by a realization of the widespread harm in the financial world which an unscrupulous public official ceaM cause, and a desire to ascertain rk-nniulv and publicly If the recent reeatvarahajM and legal complications Introduced by the Attorney General into a critical financial situation were justified and permitted under the duties of his office. It is understood that a mass of evidence of various sorts will be produced in substantiation af the charges expressed in the Saxe resolutions against the Attorney General. In general the legislative leaders are rather to take up this subject in this particular fashion. Senate leaders have had under consideration for several day? the advisability of some action against Jackson, based on his conduct In the banking cases. His removal from office even has been discussed, but to effect this formal chargts against the Attorney General would necessary.

Their decision usually" has been that legislative action could not properly be taken, since no charges were before any house or committee of the and legislative investigation properly and legally could be undertaken only to obtain information on which to base future legislation. The purpose the Saxe -resolution to ascertain whut amendments to existing lawa are necessary to prevent recurrence of the present much denounced conditions. Yet if in the Investigation evidence of actwal wrongdoing or misuse of official powers were brought out it then would become the duty of the Governor to transmit charges to tho Senate, which by 'two-thirds vote could remove ttv- Attorney General. Senator Baxe'a resolution recites that many financial institutions in the recent panic were forced to suspend payment, thereby embarrassing many solvent concerns and Individuals. It It has been widely charged, both In and of courts of iustiro.

a-nd also in the public that the office ol the Attorney General of the State ol New York has been used by the present Incumbent thereof, his associates, deputies and other agents to burden, embarrass and oppress the trade commerce of the State of New York nnd to the due administration of laws; thai the faid oflclala attemptad to prevent IBe resumption of solvent banks and tru-t companies temporarily embarrassed by the late panic, to great injury of thousande. of depositors and thereof: that applications for Ihe appointment of temporary and neiniiinent receivers iiJAe been made outside of the Judicial diftricU wnere the InsUtutlons ronrerned had their principal pla. of business: that endeavors on the part of depositors and stockholders of such companies to rehabilitate the same have in many Instances been discouraged and frustrated; that the said Attorney General lims procured tbe appointment of personal and political favorttei and followers and of unfit, untrained and Improper persons to act ius receivers for ssid banks and trust companies or as counsel or other agents of such rr 7 Y' rf some cases by and rs 1K with persons represenUns political organizations and oases for personal and P.

attention of the committee, when appointed, to the discredit of the administration of the Attorney-General's to report to the btture whether these charges or any of them are true, and what anKadsaoacs to existing are asuoasarr to prevent Improper acts by officials in future. HTbetber or not the resolution in reported depends alrnont entirely on the evidrnco which will be offered in support of the Saxe proposition. Most of the legislators at present are not keen to have this affair fluf.K into a critical section of prment legMative session. Yet if anything to sub- Htantiate the charges voiced In the resolution be produced the Finance Committee hardly can decline to report the resolution. Once reported, the Republicans and the and Murphy Democrats, who are on the outs with Jackson, would vote for It In all probability.

Tills resolution caniii be Introduced In tho Assembly now under the rules, but can be considered th'-re as a commiinlcation from the Senate tf passed by tiiat body.

TeHrmph to The Tribune. 1 Albany, March to-night about the Jackson that he was fcedlne at the puolie crib. Senator Saxe said that it was significant that Jackson did not make public the letter to which the Jackson letter was a reply, and Saxes last letter to Jackson refusing to notice an attack obviously intended for publication. Saxe then gave his version of the franchise tax muddle, most of which is substantiated by documentary evidence, as follows: He was iesignated special counsel with James a. Oraham Attorney Gore ral Mayer, who.

1n Saxes case acted on the request of Controller Metz Metz and UM Corporation Counsel's office favored Saxe because he was known as a tax expert and in the Brooklyn City Railway case as referee gave a Hi 111 1 1 for the city which set a precedent in franchise valuation. When Jackson revoked Graham's designation, appointing Daniel F. Cohnlan.of Tammany Hall, he continued Saxe, again at the request of Metz. Saxe never could get access to papers in any of the cases, however. He wrote to Jackson requesting Information so he could pet to work.

Jackson refused this, and eventually Saxn aakel to have his designation special counsel revoked, as he had opportunities to take retainers from those corporations contesttas the aiMLUIMII nta, and the state law officer seemed unwilling to let him serve th" statp. Then Jackson wrote the letter he has just made public. It was learned here to-night that capes amounting to several million dollars are ready for equalization and settlement at pleasure, but he refuses to move in thorn. HEARING ON GRADY BILL.
