Senator Cummins Says Repeal Agita iton Was Unnecessarily Stirred Up in United States. That the United States government imH.p th r.npnl nt tnll. mntinn in coastwise vessels wbuld concede to Great Britain more than she has claimed at any time, was the statement made In a speech In the Senate, yesterday afternoon by Senator Cummins, the only speaker on the canal tolls repeal bill yesterday. At the conclusion of Senator Cummins' speech adjournment was taken. The early part of the session had been con sumed by consideration of the Cummins bill to amend the Interstate Commerce law In- regard to the liability of common carriers on bills of lading. "I am amazed at the spectacle of the Americans giving to the Hay-Pauncefote treaty a more favorable interpretation for Great .Britain than she has ever contend ed for," said Senator Cummins, "This attitude Is unusual It Is unprecedented." Senator Cummins praised Great Britain as- a. great nation entitled to credit for asserting and defending her .Interpreta tion of the treaty as helpful to her com merce. "I regret that some Americans are not equally Jealous for the welfare of thr own country," said 'the Senator. He quoted Charles .Innls, representing the British official view, as saying that the exemption of coastwise vessels of the United. States would not be objectionable If limited strictly to coastwise vessels. He Intimated that GreatBrltaIn had made no outcry on this point and it refnalned for citizens of the United States, to rise In protest. - J . JffEGES MOEE PLAYGKOinrDS.' V - '" r "V r Auburn, N.

IS INTERESTING .WITNESS Reveals Transaction that Puts Serious Phase on Alleged "Doctoring" of New Haven Books. "I want to say In the most emphatic terms that Mr. Mellen did not go for ward and offer himself as a vicarious sacrifice and take on himself the respon sibility In order to shield Mr. Morgan." was the declaration of Lewis Cass Led yard yesterday afternoon, when he had completed an account of the Incidents that led up to the Indictment of Charles S. Mellen for alleged violation of the Sherman law In connection with an agreement he had reached with the Grand Trunk Railway. There was nothing like that. He wrote the letter assuming responsibility at his own suggestion. He asked me If I thought It was not a wise thing to do, and I told him I thought It was. The only things done that made any one subject to Indictment, if they did, were done by him. and on his own showing Mr. Morgan had done nothing." Rrfntrs Mellen'n tftory. This is a flat contradiction of Mr. Mellen's testimony. Mr. Ledyard's statement in regard to the Grand Trunk affair came at the end of his summarization of his connection as a director with the New Haven Rail road. He gave an explanation df the Blllard transaction that seems to put a serious phase on alleged "doctoring" of the minutes of the Xew York, New Ha ven and Hartford Railroad. From Mr. Ledyard's statement It appears John L- Billard was sold 109,948 shares or stock by the New England Navigation Com pany outright, and that he bad made a profit of S3.74S.S00. Mr. Ledyard expressed the opinion that Mellen dominated the New Haven board as much as any one. and he denominated as false, statements made by Mr. Mellen In connection with the extension by .the Boston , Maine railroad of a contract It had with the American Express com pany. Mr. Mellen intimated during his testimony that as the result of this ex tension, the New Haven road after It acquired the Boston & Maine had loaded on It a. contract on which It lost $700,. 000 a year for a period of ten years. Will Continue Today. Mr. Ledyard has formally waived Im munity, and will continue his statement today, It was conceded that Mr. Ledyard is by far the most Interestingwitness that has yet appeared before the Commis sion In connection with this Investiga tion. He discussed the affairs' of the New Haven with the utmost frankness, and said he was willing to stand on his statements as he made them, and that he was willing to make them under oath AT THE THEATERS.

IS EARLY A LEPER? EXPERTS MAY PROBE Representative Britten's Bill Provides for -Special Examining Board CONGRESS MAY CARE FOR HIM Developments came thick and fast yes terday In the. case of John Early, the leper now In the Lazar House on the Potomac, who .came here as a national example of the present lax treatment of like unfortunates. Dr. William C. Woodward, District health officer, yesterday appealed to Sec retary of the Treasury McAdoo to de port Early to Port Townsend, Wash., from where the leper escaped on May 17. Secretary McAdoo decided that Early could not be deported from the District without his consent and the consent of the States through which he would have td pass en route to a quarantine station In any of the States. Representative Britten Introduced a bill which calls for the appointment of a special board of government experts to determine whether Early Is a leper. This board will be composed of the surgeon generals of the army and navy and the public health service and it they decide he is a leper. Congress will provide fot his Immediate and permanent Isolation that the public health may be conserved. Another bill bearing on the Early case was Introduced by Representative John son, of Washington, which calls for the payment to Hawaii of yearly board for the care of American lepers at Molakas.

'There are forty to fifty known lepers walking the streets of New Tork City, attending to their business, supporting their families, and living their lives Just as ordinary people do," declared an official of the depart ment of health today. "The department of health does, not segregate lepers In this city. It Is not necessary. It was de cided years ago that the disease U not contagious in this latitude.". This statement was raaus in answer to an Inquiry concerning the leper, John R. Early. That there are known lepers walking the streets of New Tork may he a shock to many who have a horror of this disease. That these men are mingling with their fellows, some of 'them trans acting business day after day, may frighten the fearsome ones who have-not Tit been convinced that this loathsome disease cannot be contracted la northern Bread Never Sours Never Crumbles.
