Belford, "Suffolk, the County of Promise." Mr. McLean made the principal address and. like all the other speakers of the day. discussed the magnitude of the new trans portation facilities and rendered high trib ute to the men who were responsible for the achievement. He censured the usual lack of facility shown in such great works when eft in the hands of public officials, and contrasted with that the quickness with which this project had been carried through by private enterprise, In this connection he said : "At a time when the public mind is large ly occupied with socialistic propositions it i<; surely worthy of more than passing no tice that The advantages attendant on pri vat« enterprise have been Impressively il lustrated. We are not here to-night to consider any of the questions which belong properly to the political sphere, but it can not be wholly amiss to make a note of the fact that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany has done a piece of work in some six years which would In all probability have taken a quarter of a century had the agen cies involved been subject to the fluctua tions of official life " There were many complaints heard yes terday at the new Pennsylvania terminal in regard to the inadequate transit facilities in this ctiy for reaching the station. Some passengers said that they had experienced difficulty in finding the big new terminal. Others said that they had missed trains because they had relied solely on the sur face lines as the only means to reach the station direct. Samuel Rea, vice-president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, issued a statement in regard to the opening of the tunnels in which he deplored the lack of subway connections with the new station. He said in that respect: "One important thing, however, remains undone, and that while the company has constructed the facilities for subway con nections, the city has not yet provided those necessary rapid transit facilities to accommodate its own citizens and the pub 1 lie arriving: and departing from the new station. It is a matter of deep regret that the city's subway system, with proper con nection?, is not now completed and ready to perform this necessary function Coupled, however, with this regret is the expectation that the Mayor of the ... Public Service Commission will promptly have some progress made in this regard." The Pennsylvania oflici.ils said last night that 15,350 passengers ■•■ carried on the Long Island trail up to 2 o'clock yester day afternoon. It was estimated that dur ing the ••■ four hours of tunnel service about thirty-five thousand persons would pass through the tur.ncls under the East River.

Jerome Bitterly Attacks Two Witnesses Who Gave Evidence for State. Albany. Sept. B.— Frederick Rkene, of Queens Borough, former Ptate Kngineex. was am quitted to-nicht by a jury in the Supreme Court of the charge of grand larceny in connection with the award of a good roads contract in Nassau County, it beine alleged that the bid submitted by the Russell Contracting Company had been raised $9,000. The state con tended that there was an agreement be tween Skene and the company whereby the former State Engineer was to re ceive $8,000 and the company $1,000 The ca=e was submitted to the .iury shortly before 5 o'clock this afternoon after a trial lasting eleven days, and a verdict of not guilty was rendered shortly before 9 o'clock. Tt was re ported that the jury stood f* to 3 fnr ac ru-fttn! on the first three ballots, ten to two on the fourth ballot, and that a unanimous agreement was reached on the fifth. Mrs. Skene and her sister were in court for the first time. When the ver dict was announced friends surrounded the former State Engineer and his wife and congratulated them. There are sixteen other indictments pending against Pkene in connection with charges of grand larceny in the. award of good roads contracts during his administration. It is understood that the extraordinary term of the Su preme Curt which Justice Henry B. Coman, of Oneida, lias been holding will adjourn to-morrow, to permit the jus tice tM return to his own district, and that the remaining Indictments against Skene will take the usual course .it the regular tf-rm of the Supreme Court in Albany next month. The special grand jury which returned the indictments re convened this week to continue its in vestigation of charge? of fraud in the State Engineer's office under Skene. To-day was devoted to summing up by William T. Jerome, for Skene, and Attorney General O'Malley for the state, followed by the charge to the jury by , : '■• . Coman. Justice Coman said that the vital question was whether or not Pkene was a party to the raising of the bid. a? claimed by the state. He told the jury that if the direct testimony given by Charles H. O'Neil, former confidential assistant to Skene and the main witness for the prosecution, was true, he was an accomplice and could be indicted for larceny Attorney General O'Malley contended that the evidence in his opinion proved that Skene was guilty a.^ charged. "If !::• n in public lifi-." said he, in closing, "cannot remain honest, <>ur institutions are pure to suffer. It is our duty, if the Facts warrant i : . to give a blow to cor ruption in public life, no matter who it may hit. Do you wonder about this talk of hysteria and that the people are ne comlng Insurgi nts? It is all due to the fa< ' that men In public life are not faithful to their public trust." Mr. Jerome bitterly denounced O'Neil and John J. Allen, whom he persistently stigmatized as •informers'' and not worthy of belief. "When you find two Irishmen like these Informers," he thun dered, "it means a great deal more than it would from those of another race who had not suffered so much at the hands of informers." Then, turning around and shaking his finger dramatically at O'Neil, who sat In a back corner of the courtroom. h< con tinued: Look at the face of that man sitting in the dark, where he belongs, for that la Exhibit No. 1 for the defence. God cre ated man, but He never created a face like that except as a danger signal <•>!• other men." Mr. Jerome declared thai Skene had do knowledge of the raising of the bid and that he did not send O'Nei] to John B Russell for the $8,000 note. He de nied tli.it Sk< n- had rec< Ived any of the pro< • eda of the note "There is no evidence <>n these dis puted points," aid Mr. Jerome, "except from the two Informers, the rum soaked O'Neil, tki* collector for Tammany, and Allen, and you must judgtf. as between them and Skene, who should be be !;• •>. < d." Mr. Jerome a] o attacked William R Hearst, who first preferred the charges against Skene. Before closing th< ca c b< ■ tiled '■!.

Supreme Court Justice Le Bceuf. who is considering an application of Mr. Je rome fnr a warrant for the arrest of O"Xeil on a charsre of perjury, to-day heard the testimony of Dennis Monahan, who was summoned from the Ad iron dacks. He was railed to corroborate Frederick N. Lewis, of Herkimer, that Lewis gave O'Neill in Albany a state check for $fi.9fin, mndp payable to the Clinton Beckwith Ensrineering and Con trartinEr Company. <">'Xeil swore at the Skene trial that he had th" check cashed fnr Lewis at the Hotel Albany, in New York.

He put In a part of it writing, then walked into the village with his dogs, and after a l>rir f call on his friend Melville Smith strolled out on T.ake avenue. The Mayor made it very plain to-day that he appreciates the growing tendency to let him alone. He wants no callers, and the less occasion there is for him to talk or exercise h:s mind about public affnirs the better he is pleased He says he has given no one the right to say he will run for any office, and that all statements on the subject must come from him.

SEPTEMBER 0. 1010. ffl RATES 10 PAY «E$ New York Central Auditor Forced to Admit It. PATRONS CHARGED DOUBLE Official Says Commuters and Shippers Each Pay for Wage Increase. Ex-Judge William tt Wadbams. who ap peared at the railway freight hearing at the Waldorf yesterday as the representative of the parkin* ami shipping interests of the Produce Exchange, brought the question of t!i- raising of commutation rates into the freighl increase. His purpose was to show that the same increases in wages were be ing used to justify both the raisins of com mutation and freight rates. James 11. Foulds. jr.. auditor of the New Fork Central 4 Hudson River Railroad Company, was on the stand and had just testified that the wage Increase of the cen tral amounted to $3,5f10.6« IT a year, and an attempt was being marie to have the tables on which the wage increase was based brought into court, when Mr. W ad hams brought in the commutation question. "The New York Central system has a payroll for wages that totals nearly $36 - 000 000 a year, and we want the country to know that we are paying to our labor. In cluding increased wages. $100,000 a day H O Butterfleld. counsel for the Central. replies for Mr. Foulds. when the demand fo r the wage tables was made. •'I want to ask if there has been a raise in passenger rates, coming from Yonkers. for instance, and similar places," Mr. Wafl hajns said to Mr. Foulds. »Yve scon it in the newspapers," Mr. Foulds replied. "You know, do you not? You live out of town." said Mr. Wadhams. "Yes." said Mr. Foulds. "And ynu ride in on a pass and with friends who told you that they had to pay more?" „ "They stated to me that they had. Yes, Mr. Foulds replied. "Isn't it a fact that the higher rate of wages paid to the mm operating passenger trains on which commutation has been raised is included in the higher freight rates?" Mr. Wadhams asked. "It is," said Mr. Foulds. Chief Examiner Brown of the Interstate Commerce Commission, who is presiding at the hearing with C. R. Hillyer. of Florida, who has been designated to take part as commissioner in the hearing, explained to Mr. Wadhams that another investigation by the commission was looking after the increase in pa?sensrer rates. "I wanted to bring out the question of whether or not th*» raise of wages is being used in both investieations to justify the advance in both freight and passenger rates." said Mr. Wadhams. 'It Is." he was told. Frank E. Brißp', auditor of freicrht for the Central, told F E James, counsel for the lowa shippers, that he would produce information showing how the schedule of increased rates was made up. If counsel for the road would permit. "No increases in rates have been made on sugar, !ron, steel. par*»r. smelter products, ropper or packing: house products, have there"" risked Mr James. Mr. Brisre-s ?aid that he was not sure. "You. as a traffic man. know that these goods were all known to you as trust goods 0 " asked Mr. James. "I don't know. I don't know what trust goods are," said Mr. Brie??. "You would know if the rate had been raised on sugar, if your counsel would let you produce the tariff record?." said Mr. James. ■'Perhap?. " ?aid Mr, Pu'Torflpld, rrmn?^. for the Central. "I will say that It was in trnded to raise the rate on suprar, but tt was omitted by mistake." Chief Examiner Brown told Mr. James that he understood that the new tariff did provide for an increase of 5 cents a hun dred pounds on packing house products be tween Chicago and New York. - • ACT IN DUAL MURDER CASE Butler Held Because of Crimes in Dr. Cannon's Home. Suspected of having some knowledge of the two murders in the h«im» of Dr. Mott D. Cannon, No. m West lC2d street, on May ft last, a man. said by the police to he William C. «'artor, said to have been formerlj employed by the physician as a bmier. was arrested last night by Centra] Office detectives. Returning from a round of professional calls. Dr. Cannon found the dead bodies or Margaret Meehan, his aged housekeeper, and Charles William Beman, hi.s East Ind ian butler. He immediately summoned the police, but although detectives reached the house in a few minutes no trace of the mysterious murderer could be found. How the men gained entrance was one of the puzzling points, as the housekeeper was known to be cautious. A little girl in the neighborhood told of calling at the doctor's home during the time in which the murders must have been committed. She said some one opened the door an inch or so when she rang the bell to leave some flowers. She did not see who it was. but this person bade her leave the place. No one could be found who had seen any person either enter or leave the place A former servant of the physician's was closely questioned and watched, but the surveillance came- to nothing. A negro butler formerly in the physi cian's household, but who had accepted a position in the home of a neighbor was also questioned, hut he could thrown no Ugh; on the crime. • BIG DAY AT RICHMOND FAIR Five Thousand Delegates Attend Con vention of Women's Clubs.
