FINDS FAULT WITH JEROME
Chicago Mayor and Judge Take Ex
ception to Hie Treatment of
Prleoaers.
CHICAGO, Jan. . Judge Edward E.
Dunne delivered a broadside from the
bench today against the sentiments re
ported to have been expressed by District
Attorney Jerome ef New York regarding
the rough handling of "crook."
'A law-defying, crime-Inciting utterance
from a public official charged with the
preservation of the peace," was the opin
ion expressed by Judgo Dunne of District
Attorney Jerome' reported plan of treat
ing lawbreakers.
Judge Dunne gave utterance to this senti
ment after Attorney Robert E. Cantwell
had represented to the court that a prisoner
who wua arrested and subsequently charged
with complicity In several .murder and
robberies had been roughly handled by the
police.
"The night of the Iroquois fir a police
man came to thla man's cell at Central
station and pushed a gun Into the prisoner'
ee( severely Injuring him," declared At
torney Cantwell.
Attorney Cantwell referred to the alleged
attack In connection with the hearing of a
petition for a writ of habeas corpus to ob
tain the .release of two other prisoners
from the custody of the police. - The two
were released upon giving bonds.
"Men In Mr. Jerome' position should not
haw been guilty of uttering such Incen
diary and Illegal sentiments, ' continued
Judgo Dunne. "It Is most outrageous, un
worthy of the man and a disgrace to his
office. I am astounded at Mr. Jerome, as I
have always believed him to be a vigorous
prosecutor and an honest man. It is sim
ply Inciting police officers to commit crime.
"The opinion I have expressed about Pis
trlct Attorney! Jerome Is based upon the
assumption that he was correctly quoted ss
saying that 'most of the men charged with
crime with us when brought Into court
pear evidence of resisting an officer. We
see to It that these men do resist officers
or we force them to resist, and then bring
them In In fragments.' "
The Interview referred to has also been
raustloally criticised by Mayor Harrison
The mayor said advice to "bent up" pris
oners oame with a poor grace from a lan
Officer. In a subsequent Interview Mr.
Jerome I quoted fn reply to Mr. Harrison
as follows : .
"I did not say that I enjoyed the method
of the New York police In handling brooks,
but I did say, and know, that rough hand
ling has abated crime to a great extent. If
good has been accomplished there I some
excuse for the means eirployed."
Mr. Jorome cam to Chicago to deliver
n addreos at the Merchants' club. He will
leave for New York tomortow night.

NEW YORK, Jan.' 9. -The White Star
teamer-Celtic, on which William J. Bryan
Is a passenger, arrived today. The steamer
was met at quarantine by a committee of
prominent democrats, who have planned a
reception to Mr. Bryan tonight at the Vic
toria hotel.
The reception committee was headed by
formt.- United State Senator Charles A.
Towne, Melville O. Palllser, Justice Samuel
Seabury and Henry George, Jr. Mr. Bryen
said he never felt better. Asked what sort
of a trip he had, he said he believed it wss
a trip unique In winter transatlantic travel.
There were two and a half days of storm
starting and Ave days of glorious weather,
almost dead calm, and then the last couple
of days very rough and very high seas.
Coming up the bay Mr. Bryan held a gen
eral reception.
He declined to talk specifically for pub
lication, on the ground thst he Intended to
write of his experiences and did not desire
all the Impressions he had gained to be old
before his own writings had achieved print.
Mr. Bryan said he visited ten capitals and
a part of Sweden. He spent fourteen hours
Ith Count Tolstoi. He also saw Max
Nordau and Mr. Croker. He and Mr.
Croker visited each other, he said.
. "What did you say to each otherT" was
asked.
'I don't think we said anything of public
Interest. You must remember that I know
less of what has been going on in this
country during the last two months than In
any two months of my llfe.'v
He expressed himself as greatly shocked
hen Informed of the great loss of life In
the Iroquois theater Are.
Asked about ths great men he had visited.
Mr. Bryan said he thought Mr. Balfour,
England's premier, one of the most schol
arly men he had ever met He spoke in
terms of high praise and gratitude of the
manner in which he had been received and
helped by Ambassador Choat and all the
other American representative to whom
he had applied.
Tells of Notables.
'I met President Loubet of Franc," Mr
Bryan said, "and found him very pleasant.
President Dutscher of Swltserland la a very
genial man, with German characteristics
strongly marked. The osar of Russia also
appears to me to bo very charming. The
crown prince of Denmark is 'affable and
friendly to a degree. With the exception
of President Loubet, all of them spoke
English well. I enjoyed the visit to the
Vatican and was presented to the pope by
Father Kennedy, tha head of the American
college in Rome. The pope did not speak
English, I was Impressed with the friendly
feeling everywhere expressed of the Amer
leans. I do not think tt was the friendship
of awe, they seemed to like us."
Don't you agree with the majority of
travelers the people are more rulers than
in this country T" h was asked.
"In England." h replied, "pubila opinion
rules more than in any other oountry I
know of, except perhaps in France and
Swltserland. Swltserland Is far more demo.
oratlo than her, public opinion controls
more than anywhere I know of."
Mr. Bryan said he wa going to Connect!
cut on Monday and hopes- to- go to Ne
braska before the end of the coming week,
Asked 1( he favored the aoiqing or tne
democratic national convention v ID New
York, Mr. Bryan gave an emphatic nega
tive answer. He aald: "If you people ha v
got a much money as you say you have
you can afford toxgo into the center of
the country. You have been boasting about
your wealth and can afford to spend some
of It I am opposed to any extreme end of
the country being for the convention.
Mr. Bryan would not talk about plat
forms. He said he knew of nothing that
should be taken out of the last platform
and could not say what should be added,
He refused to discuss the Panama situa

NEWSPAPER COMMENT:
(FROM ' NEW YORK WORLD )
Mme. Yale' peerless beauty is not con
fined to one feature or group of 'features,
but extends to her every feature. Nature
wa lavUh with her when she bestowed
the gifts of beauty upon her, for along
with it she endowed her with a mind and
a soul, that, comblnsd with her native
beauty, generated a passion to preserve
that beauty,, and then, when the secret of
lasting beauty was found, an ambition and
a desire to impert what she had learned
to her sister pilgrims through the world.
(FROM CHICAGO TRIBUNE.)
Long may Mme. Yale's work continue
and her teachings- bear fruit. Long may
this beautiful gueen wield her magic power
over ugllneas and delight us with her
charming presence.
(FROM THE BOSTON HERALD.)
To describe Mme. Yale is an attempt to
describe the indescribable. One cannot put
into language the beauty of the flower nor
paint the grandeur of the soul. Human
fovllness Ilea not alone In physical per
fection; It Is that indefinable something
which results when the sum of all the
virtues Is combined with grace and sym
metry. Beauty, Is charm of contour and
amiability of expression. The type of a per
1 nnn In whom there I a
perfect development of the body and the
mind. Besuty is truth in Its fullest ex
pression. Mme. xaie represents inuii. n
