FINN RKFUSED TO
ANSWER QUESTIONS
Did It on the Ground That He Might
Incriminate Himself He Will
Consult His Attorney.
The continued hearing In the bribery
charges brought against Councllmen
James ,1. Grler and T. C. Melvln and
Carl W. McKlnney by the Municipal
league lasted only about live minute3
last night in Alderman Fuller's olllce,
for the reason that Select Councilman
Wade M. Finn, the principal witness,
lefused to answer certain questions
put to him by Attorney James H. Tor
rey until such time as he consulted his
attorney.
It Is evident from the nature of these
questions that the prosecution will at
tempt to prove that money wns used
by the Barber Asphalt company to
secure Its ten-year repair contract.
Tho alderman's small ofllce wan
crowded with spectators when Mr. Finn
was called to the witness stand. At
torneys James II. Torrey and E. C.
Xewcomb represented the prosecution
and Attorney Joseph O'Brien repre
sented the interest of the defendants.
Mr. Finn testified that he was a
member of the select council now and
that he was a member when the or
dinance awarding the Barber Asphalt
contract passed. He said he was ac
quainted with Carl W. McKlnney.
"Was Mr. McKlnney looking after
the Interests of the Barber Asphalt
company at the time that contract was
awardetl?" asked Mr. Torrey, who was
conducting the examination.
"I guess ho was working for them,"
replied Mr. Finn.
"Did Mr. McKlnney place any money
In your hands to be delivered to n cer
tain person?"
"I refuse to answer that question on
constitutional grounds," said Mr. Finn.
"Do you think that In answering It
you would incriminate yourself?"
"Well, the public! might think I was
Incriminated. I think that before an
swering that question I should be al
lowed to consult my attorney."
"Well, I'll ask you a few more," said
Mr. Torrey.
"Immediately after this money had
been deposited with you did you pay
it over to a city olllclal?"
"I refuse to answer that question
on the same grounds."
"Did you ever handle any of the Bar
ber Asphalt company's money?"
"I refuse to answer."
"Did Mr. McKlnney, representing the
Barber Asphalt company, place $1,000
or any other sum In your hands with
the direction that you were to give It
to Mayor Bailey immediately after the
signing of the contract, and did you
pay over this money as directed?"
"I refuse to answer that question,
also," responded Mr. Finn.
Mr. Torrey explained that he had
subpoenaed several other witnesses,
but, that as the evidence they were to
give would be along similar lines, It
would be useless to proceed.
Mr. Nowcomb said that Mr. Finn
had no legal right to be allowed to
consult an attorney, but that the prose
cution was willing to cede him the
right. After much discussion the hear
ing was finally ndjourned until Friday
afternoon at 4.P.0 o'clock.
In tho course of the discussion re
garding the fixing of the time for the
hearing some one suggested Thursday
night.
"There's a council meeting that night
which 1 have to attend," said Mr, Finn.
"Oh, what's the use of attending,"
put In Mr. Xewcomb; "there's nothing
In it now," and the crowd laughed.
GLAD NEWS FROM GALVESTON.
j
Louis Freedman Hears of Safety of
His Pavents-in-Law.
I.ouls Freedman, the Penn avenue
clothier, last night received a telegram
from the Galveston Journal, Informing
him of the safety of Mr. and Mrs.
Jacob Cohen, his wife's parents. Ever
since the great accident Mrs. Freed
man has been In great worn tegard
Ing them, and Mr. Freedman was pra
parlng to have for Teas wh'ts he re
ceived the telegram in answer to n
.query sent tho Journal.
Mr. and Mrs. Cohen's residence was
destroyed, and they only saved their
lives by taking refuge In a large hotel.
In celebration of the good news. Mr.
and Mrs. Freedman will entertain a
number of their friends, Sunday after
noon. Economy
Said to be a "jewel." Must be
valuable very: for Its exceedingly
rare. One seldom has the pleas
ure of seeing It, novv-a-days.
Too true this, and It betokens
a sad state of affairs; for, evi
dently, the masses have turned
aside- from Nature- tho world's
greatest economist. Nature starts
every mother's son and daughter
right: and, In all her ways, Is ever
encouraging the careless ond in
different ones to he more thought
ful of her bouiltlt-h.
Wary toller, look about you!
Learn a lesson from Nature a
lasting lesson. With her, nothing
Is wasted, With you how Is It?
Let us enter your numo among
the economists, and the answer
will be easier and better, than
now. ,

SCHOOL FACILITIES
FOR THE MINE BOYS
Teachers' Committee of the Board of
Conttol Is to Take Up the Matter
for Consideration.
Chairman Louis Schwass, of the
teachers' committee of the board of
control, has called a meeting of that
body for next Monday night, for the
purpose, of taking nctlon on the sug
gestion of Superintendent of Schools
Howell regarding the establishment of
special schools during the strike for
the accommodation of the boys who
have been thrown out of work.
Superintendent Howell Is very en
thusiastic over his plan, and believes
that the board will act favorably on It.
Speaking regarding It to a Tribune
man yesterday afternoon, he said:
"Anybody who has had the experi
ence I have had during the past few
days would have been Impressed with
the necessity of opening schools for
these boys. I have so far had appli
cations from over 350 boys, who are
desirous of Improving their time dur
ing the strike by going to school.
"Just a few moments ago I had a
visit from a delegation of five blight
little chaps, who wanted to know
where they could go to school. I think
It is safe to assumb, taking as a basis
the night school reports for last year,
that there are between S00 and 900 boys
who would attend these extra schools
If they were opened.
"We have plenty of old buildings and
annexes In all parts of the city to ac
commodate this number, and they
could be fitted up at a very little ex
pense. I think that tho money appro
priated by the board for night schools
should be dlvcrteei to this purpose, as
the same boys who would be bene
fitted by these extra day schools are
the ones who largely attend the night
schools.
"If President Mitchell succeeds In
getting out the miners in the lower
part of the state. I think It will mean
a very long strike, and It behooves us
to look after the Interests of these
boys and young men who are thrown
out of work and to keep them off tho
streets and away from mischief."
