Pennsylvanian as Absurd and Pays '
High Eribute to the Character
of the Maligned Jurist.

ALBANY, June 19.——Ex-Senator and
(Ix-Governor David B. Hill, who was at
the head of the defeated Democratic
state ticket. the year that Judge Haight
was elected with the restsof the Ilepub-
li<-:111 state ticket, had this to say as to
the Lockwood testinun’y in relation to
Judge Haight‘s election, given before the
industrid commissio 11. ch 1rging‘ that
Judge ‘rIaight 1111s elected to 1115 high
position by cor'pox ate influence because of
his action in quashiug the indictments in
the famous Matthews casc- against the
Standard Oil 111ag111'1tes:

"Judge Height was elected in the fall
01 180—1. At 11111 election I headed the
Democratic ticket for 1101131 “1101, leading
‘11 forlorn hope,’ and presumably recol-
lect the campaign very well. The Demo-
crats had to contend against the hard
fines, the silver panic, the \Vilson tariff
1.1sco and disclosures of municipal cor-
1 .1ption, as well as divisions among Dem-
ierats themselves, and of course the re-
sult was a Republican ‘cyclone,’ as ev~’
erybody knew it would be. The Repub-
licans needed no ‘immense corruption
fund’ either from the Standard Oil com-
pa y 01' anybody else to elect their whole
I recol-
lect at the time there was some criticism,
principally by a coterie of Populists, of a

tale, but it attracted no particular at-
ten tion in the cam lmign and was regaid-
ed by myself and by Democrats generally
as unworthy of notice. At any late it
cut 110 figure in the canvass Judge
Haight being elected by 123,924 plurali-
ty over a most able and popular oppo-
nent, Judge Haight receiving 671,259
votes, while, Governor Morton only re-
ceived a few more—to wit, 673,818.

“It is absurd for a Pennsylvanian at
this late dav, who can nathrally have no
personal knowledge of the matter of
which he assumes to speak, to assert that
Judge Haight was either nominated or
elected in New York state through the
contributions 01' efforts of the Standard
Oil company. It verifies the old saying
that ‘one must go away from home to get
the news.’ He was elected because the
tide of that year in New York as well as
everywhere else was with his party, and
he was nominated because of his high
pe1sonal character, his efl‘ieient judicial
ability and unquestioned integrity, con-
ceded by the whole bar and people of the
state, and as a fair political opponent it
gives me pleasure to say this much.

“A congressional investigating commit-
tee seems to be the peculiar form for the
exploitation of all sorts of sensational
matters 1 he1e neither personal knowl-
edge nor reliable facts are required and
where any one is permitted to air his
views and put foxth his hearsay state-
ments With perfect freedom and utter
recklessness. .

“Of"bourse, Judge Haight can well af-
ford. to treat the ridiculous ‘discovery’ or
‘attack’ of this nonresident from Pennsgl-

vania with the silI1nt contempt which It
deserves.

"‘The people of New York are satisfied
that Judge Haight adorns the highest

honesty. his learning and his entire judi-
cial fitness.”

KIPLING WANTED DETAILS.

Incident That Shows the Author’s
Thirst for Exact Knowledge
on Every Point. '

m1;

“Kipling’s methods of absorbing de-
tail are curious and interesting,” says
Mr. Lyman D. Bentley, formerly with
the Baldwin Locomotive company.
“Some years ago, while he was visit-
ing the shops at New Haven he met
a skilled mee hanic named Cressy, and
immediately proceeded to pump him

 

about engine building. Cressy did not

fully appreciate the honor that was
paid him, but he was flatter ed by the
novelist’s interest, and the’tvvo went
all over a. big eight-wheel express flyer
that was standing in the yard. Kip-
ling said he had lots of books on the
subject, but they didn’t tell him the
things he wished to know. What he
wanted was a real engineer or builder’s
idea of the machine, and he was par-
ticularly eager to learn the colloquial
names of the parts. He took no notes,
but about a. month later he was in New
Haven again, and hunted up the me-
chanic. ‘Look here, Cressy,’ he said,
producing a. rough sketch on a card
of one of the valves of the brake-gear,
‘I wish you’d tell me again just how this
thing works.’ Cressv explained, and
Kipling laughed delightedly.‘1’ve-
got it now!’ :)he exclaimed. I mention
the incident because it seems to throw
some light on his astonishing command
of technicalities.”

FUNSITON‘ ON THE FILIPIN‘os.
\tht Independence Means in the

-Minds of the Followers of
Aguinuldo.

 

Col. Funston, whose fighting in the
Philippines has made him famous,
wrote a letter home to the Topeka
(Kan. ) Capital, before the outbreak of
hostilities. In it he said some things
which ought to cool down the partici-
pants in the Chicago meeting which at“
tacked the president. For instance:

“I am afraid that some people at
home will lie awake nights worrying
about the ethics of this war, thinking
that our enemy is fighting for the right
of self-government, etc. The word ‘in-

A

. dependence,’ which these people roll

over their tongues so glibly, is to them
a word and not much more.

“It means simply with them license
to raise hell and if they got con-
trol they would raise a. fine crop of it.
It is true that they have a certain num-
ber of educated leaders ‘-— educated,
however, about the same way a. par-
rot is.

“They are, as a rule, an illiterate,
semi-savage people, who are waging
war not against tyranny, but against
Anglo-Saxon order and decency. Their
whole conduct during the several
months preceding the Outbreak was
one of insufferable arrogance and ego—
tism. They were swollen up by the fact
that our_people made too much of them
