W. S. LEIB OUSTED
Civil Service Law. ;
Washington, Nov. 28. — President
Roosevelt removed from office Wil-
liam S. Leib, assistant United States
ffeasurer at Philadelphia, for ‘“con-
stant and persistent violation of the
ivil service law while in office.” The
emoval was announced ip a formal
tatement issued at the White House
y the president.
After careful consideration of all the
facts developed by the inquiry, the
resident decided to remove Leib from
office, it being shown, according to
the statement, that there was ‘“con-
stant and persistent effort on Mr.
Leib’s part to evade the provisions of
the civil service law, to hamper its
workings as far as possible, and to ob-
struct in every way the action of the
commission.” The president declared
that the evidence showed fraud fn the
civil service examinations, the fraud
in one instance implicating Leib’s sis-
ter. After reviewing the case pretty
fully, the president concludes:
“Under these circumstances of per-
sistence in wrongdoing on your part it
seems to me that there is no alterna-
tive but to remove you from office.
You are accordingly hereby removed
from the position of assistant treasurer
of the United States.”

$700,000 in Stock Taken from Vault.
Another Sample of High Financing by New York Life.
Perkins Explains Bond Deal.
New York, Nov. 28.—One of the
most interesting features of the life
insurance investigation developed only
n few minutes before adjournment of
the Armstrong committee when Theo-
dore F. Banta, cashier of the New
York life Insurance company, testi-
fied that about the beginning of 1901
Edmund D. Randolph, treasurer of the
company, opened the vaults of the
company, removed New York city
stock valued at $700,000 and put a
check of the Central National bank for
$700,000 in its place. Mr. Banta said
he helped to open the vaults at the or-
der of Mr. Randolph and that he sup-
posed Mr. Randolph acted for the fi-
nance committee. The stock was kept
out for a few days and was then re-
turned and the check withdrawn. The
transaction was not recorded on the
books of the company so far as Mr.
Banta knew. The effect of the opera-
tion would be that any one having
that stock would have $700,000 worth
of taxable property at the end of the
year. Mr. Banta did not know who
received the stock. Mr. Randolph is
expected to explain.
George W. Perkins, vice president
of the New York Life, and member of
the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., de-
scribed to the committee the trans-
action which resulted in his receipt of
$40,193 from Kidder, Peabody & Co., of
Boston, as half the profits of the sale
of $2,000,000 worth of bonds of the
Mexican Central Railroad company.
Milton Mattison, a bookkeeper of the
New York Life, had previously testi-
fied that $930,000 of the life insurance
company’s money was used in the
transaction and that Mr. Perkins got
the profit. Mr. Perkins said that he
went into the transaction for the
Nyii¢ fand which is owned by the
agents of the New York Life and that
he invested the profits for that fund.
The life insurance company, he said,
profited to the extent of 5 per cent.
interest on the loan of $930,000. He
stated that the company had no right
to the $40,193 profits.
Mr. Perkins said also that J. P.
Morgan & Co. had taken up notes of
Andrew Hamilton and E. E. McCall,
formerly justice of the New York
state supreme court, amounting to
$56,310 at the request of President
John A. McCall, of the New York Life,
and that the amount with interest was
paid to Andrew Hamilton by the New
York Life for the proceeds of a syn-
dicate in United States Steel stock.
Mr. Perkins admitted that he receiv-
ed agents’ commissions on all policies
he carries.
President John A. McCall told the
committee that he had told the Cen-
tral National bank and E. E. McCall
that Hamilton was good for $50,000
and they had then taken Hamilton’s
notes. He said the New York Life
owed Hamilton the $56,310 and took
the syndicate profits to pay him. The
result was that the payment did not
appear on the books of the company.
The reason was that he wanted to
keep Hamilton's expenses down.
SENATOR BURTON CONVICTED
Found Gullty, for Second Time, on All
Counts Against Him.
St. Louis. Nov. 27.—United States
Senator J. Ralph Burton, of Kansas,
was found guilty in the United States
circuit court on all six counts against
him, charging that the senator prac-
ticed before the post-office department
at Washington while a United States
senator to prevent the issuance of a
fraud order against the Rialto Grand
and Securities company, of St. Louis.
The jury was out only two hours.
This is the second trial of Senator
Burton on similar charges, the present
allegations charging the senator with
making the agreement to practice be-
fore the post-office department in St.
Louis, and with taking money for the
work also in St. Louis. The senator
was found guilty in the previous trial,
but the verdict was reversed by the
supreme court because it was proved
only that compensation was paid to
Burton in Washington, outside the ju-
risdiction of the trial court.
Good Year for Farmers.
Washington, Nov. 27.—“Wealth’ pro-
duction on the farms of the United
Btates in 1905 reached the highest
pmount ever attained in this or any
pther country—$6,415,000,000.”
In the first annual report of his third
term, Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
presents an array of figures and state-
ments representing the products and
profits of the farmers of the country,
which he admits “dreams of wealth
preduction can hardly equal.”
Besides the enormous yield of
wealth, the -secretary estimates that
the farms of the country have increas-
ed in value during the past five years
to a present aggregate of $6,133,000,-
000.
Analyzing the principal crops for the
vear, the secretary says that corn
reached its highest production with
2,708,000,006 bushels, a gain of 42,000,-
000 over the next lowest year, 1899;
hay is second in order of value, al-
though cotton held second place dur-
ing the two preceding years. The hay
crop this year is valued at $605,000,-
000. Cotton comes third, with a valu-
ation of $575,000,000; wheat, $525,000,-
0000; oats, $282,000,000; potatoes,
$138,000,000; barley, $58,000,000; to-
bacco, $52,000,000; sugar cane and su-
gar beets, $50,000,000; rice, $13,892,-
000; dairy products, $665,000,000, an
increase of $54,000,000 over last year.
“The farmer’s hen,” the secretary
says, “is becoming a worthy compan-
ion to his cow. The annual production
of eggs is now a score of billions. Poul-
try products have climbed to a place
of more than a half billion dollars in
value, so the farmer’s hen competes
with wheat for precedence.”
There are more horses, and with a
larger aggregate value than ever be-
fore, notwithstanding, as the secretary
says, they were first threatened by the
bicycle and later by the suburban tro!-
ley and the automobile. He estimates
their value at $1,200,000,000, or nearly
as much as the corn crop, and the
value of mules at $252,000,000.
Although milch cows are increasing
in number and value, the report states
that other cattle and sheep have for
several years been decreasing. There
are 17,670,000 milch cows, valued at
$482,000,000. Other cattle are numbered
at 43,669,000, with a value of $662,
000,000. Swine number 47,321,000, val-
ued at $283,255,000. In the aggregate,
the value of farm animals has increas-
ed a few million dollars within the
year, and since the census of 1900 have
increased 9 per cent.
With this enormous production, the
secretary says, the wants of 83,000,000
people have been supplied, with a re-
maining surplus constituting a gener-
ous contribution to other nations. The
exported farm products during the fis-
cal year inding June 30, 1905, had a
value of $827,000,000.
MUTINEERS IN CONTROL
Situation at Sebastopol
Very Critical.
Odessa, Nov. 28.—Governor General
Kaulbars has received the following
dispatch from Vice Admiral Chouknin,
commanding the Black Sea fleet:
“The mutineers left the Kniaz Po-
temkine and the vessel is now in my
hands. The sailors, together with the
soldiers of the Brest regiment who mu-
tinied, have shut themselves in the
Lazareff barracks with some guns.
When fresh troops arrive I shall at-
tack, though I fear the artillerymen
may join the mutineers.
“A very serious state of affairs pre-
vails. Several officers have been killed.”
According to private dispatches from
Sebastopol, Vice Admiral Chouknin has
frustraed the design of the mutineers
to seize the Black Sea fleet and sail for
Odessa by ordering all the gun locks
to be broken.
