System Convicted by Following these startling disclosures of such definite character, Mr. Lawson further defends his present course in exposing the methods of his former business associates, und pays some added compliments to the "Standard Oil" clique in these words: Y'Throughout my entire life I have pursued with a continuity of purpose that class I am pursuing today the class that has taken front the people their earnings by fraud and trick. If other proof were needed that the men 1 am after had lost the discretion Which made them great In the world, these foolish yarns supply It. It Is well known thut no man gets near to Standard Oil' In business or socially until their detectives have dissected his career from the cradle up. I spent years In close business relations with these men, so close that, as I will show you later. I acted as the agent, not only ofRogera and Rockefeller, but of the Amalgamated company and the City e. Lawsons Pen Reveals Systems" Rottenness! In Everybody's Magazine for March, Thomas Y.

Gives Stsrtling Personal History. Mr. Lawson then makes some accusations concerning Standard Oil" methods that involves a few highly Interesting .statements relative to the careers of two men who formely were high In the nation's service. He saya:1 In an early article of this series stated that one of the favorite operations of the 'System' was to pick off those officials who had exhibited unusual talent or energy In protecting the Interests of the national government. In this way they secured the services of niert who knew the secret workings of the people's Institutions and how best to guard the corporations against the consequences of their misdeeds. During the Cleveland administration there developed a financial phenom-enon- ,' James II. Eckles, comptroller of the currency. It did not take long for the astute clique to see that this young man's knowledge of the finance In connection with Ms governmental position might prove a dangerous obstacle to their It machine If lie were not captured. was not long before he was captured. How Bond Sals Was Balked. 'I met Mr. Eckles during the Cleveland bond performance. I need not enter into the details of that extraordinary affair here, for. It Is one of the sore spots In recent American history. Briefly, the administration at Washington attempted to Issue. $100,000,000 government bonds and deliver them In a snap sale to the System. The New York World began a crusade against the transaction and was so successful thnt the administration was compelled to offer the Issue to the public through The result the bids. competitive bonds fetched many more millions for the government than If the deal had been allowed to slip along the ways the 'System' had greased for It. I remember well the scene at the opening of the bids. It was In the United States treasury at Washington. With many others who desired nn allotment of the bonds, I was present. We were crowded Into a small room, and following the direction of young Mr.. Eckles. who handled the transaction, we handed over to 1dm our bids, which, according to the advertised program, were In wealed envelopes. After all the bids were submitted mine was for a num Rogera-Morgan.McC- all ber of millions the envelopes were taken by Mr. Eckles into a rear room. Then a few of the leading financiers present, among them John A. McCall of the New York Life, J. Plerpont Morgan and one or two others of the 'System's' lomnost representatives, got their heads together and began an earnest conference. Certain of them went out of the room and after a while returned for a further conference. "There were several such confabulations nnd comings and goings, until finally, after a monotonous delay, the bids were opened and the bonds awarded. Morgan, McCall, et al. had secured the bulk of the issue at a price many points above what any one had been led to believe the bonds would sell for, and many points higher than the 'System' and the government had proclaimed to the people that they could possibly sell for, yet at a price which showed millions of profit a few hours after the bids were opened. I do not charge that the publics envelopes were opened and peeked Into before the Such a System's bids were sealed. charge la not necessary. It has been made many times by the preaa Mr. Eckles, to the minds of such of us as could see through the cracks In the flour wide enough to drive a coach Into without unhitching the leaders, had lived up to his role as a financial phenomenon, and when some time afterward It was bruited abroad that this able young man was to have the presidency of the City bank, or any other large bank belonging to the System that he might select, there was no surprise, although much comment, in Wall street. Mr. Eckles finally accepted the presidency of the Commercial bank of Chicago, where he Is now one of the Important cogs in the System's machine. Thinks It Looks Like Perjury. "The case of James M. Beck has points of similarity. Mr. Beck, a young Philadelphia lawyer, obtained a valuable knowledge of the secrets of the department of Justice In Washington as assistant United States atttorney-genem- l, and in the prosecution of the Northern Securities suit got an insight into the System's methods. It will be remembered that at the trial of the suit he made a great appearance and became famous as the yoftng champion of the people who had succeeded in The trust.

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN GIFT. On the occasion of the last birthday of the Chinese empres dowager, the American Bible society presented the old lady with a magnificent edition de luxe of the Bible. The makeup of the gift is described in detail by a Boston paper that seemingly saw nothing Incongruous in such an offering from such a source. It said: The book had silver covers embossed with bamboo and bird designs. It was printed on the very finest paper obtainable with the biggest type, and , border of gold encircled every page. It was encased in a casket of solid silver, the whole weighing ten and one-ha- lf pounds, and there was a gold Inscription plate on the cover of the casket. This item will be read with Interest, though perhaps not with pleasIn the ure, by many land of the Bible societys nativity. Pleasing memories will arise before the mental vision of such, recalling days when they went to Sunduy school regularly, and of the exalted emotions that swelled their young bosoms when placing their weekly penny In the missionary "comopper" while the school joined in singing: Little drops of water, little grains of sand, Make the mighty ocean and the beauteous land." To the last day of their lives they will remember quite distinctly the attitude of exhaustion assumed by the superintendent, head bowed on hand, while the "poppers" were passing. Ilad i lie children which the wicked mothers in heathen lands fed to crocodiles been his own offspring he could not have appeared more depressed, and the children who thrilled beneath Ms graphic were ready then and there, to leave father, mother, sister, brother, happy home and trundle beds to sail away over seas to rescue those unhappy babes from their watery fate, and tell the parents of the same where go if they did not they were likely cease such evil practices. That was long ago. and for aught who listened and the thrilled may know the "popper" may Imbe circulating with Us pressiveness before a new generation. The gift of the American Bible society to the empress of China cannot, therefore, be wholly a matter of Insemi-heathe- ns "Mr. Beck has proved a most available and flexible servant in the cause of his muster.

But, said I. 'I have got to state the facts, and the facts are diametrically opposite to what Mr. Roger and the others are to testify to. This looks to me like subornation of perjury.' 'My lawyer would not have It that way. and I Instructed him to secure from Mr. Beck a writing as to Just what he wished me to do. nnd that writing I have at the present time.

Mining Notes From Sierra Madre District With the close of winter mine-owne- rs in the Sierra Madre district are preparing for a vigorous spring and summer campaign. There will be more work done during 1905 within the area of the district than ever before done during a single year. On the Santa Marla work has been driven during the present winter with most excellent results. The present contrautors on development of the main eins will take a second contract for 300 feet of tunnel on the same level. Mid with the opening of spring a j 1.100-focrosscut tunnel will be started to develop at greater depth the Sunta Marla, the North Copper, the New York and contact veins, and plans for ore shipments are already planned to take place during the summer of Riverdale op Phoenix Floor Burnham's labors have demonstrated that with very shallow depth these veins are rich In copper, the ores showing as chalcopyrite, bornite and gray copper. The general content of these veins is gold, silver and copper. The vein matter is dry and rather easy to mine. The walls are defined and distinct from the vein matter. Like most other lodes and veins of the Sierra Madre district, the veins of the Southern Pacific can be worked to great depth by tunnels. - . ot 1905. East of the Southern Pacific group the management of the Wisconsin during their work last December showed up an excellent body of copper sulphides at the contact It ia now to be regretted that the company did not begin their tunnel work lower down, so am to strike the contact at greater depth. It would seem that the copper found In this property la simply a continuation of the great bonanza cropping out at the lower contact in the Santa Marla, to which the main tunnel la now being driven In that property. The Wisconsin people will have hut little difficulty in opening up to production an excellent area of mining ground If they ' will only push their lower tunnel as planned by them some time ago. The management of the Napoleon and Maghera report that a campaign of extensive development work will be gin April 1st In Epldote canyon on the copper mines owned by that company. A considerable volume of ore has already been opened up in this group of mines, and Dr. Dalbey of Iowa,. together with hie Illinois associates, report that all things needed for putting the mine on a producing basis are now arranged, and that the new work will begin about the date above stated.
