HYDE ON THE STAND (Continued from First Page.) that powerful influence at Albany would be invoked In retaliatory measures. Mr. Harriman suggested as one of these meas ures the revocation of the charter of the Mercantile Trust company. Mr. Hyde knew of no actual steps that were taken nor of any bill that was Introduced, but he was beset with rumors that such steps were about to he taken by legislation. The Equitable Life lie said was not interested beyond the connection it had with the Mer cantile Trust company. Mr. Hyde waa under the Impression that the Mercantile In settlement retained the bonds and paid Mr. Odell about $75,000. The original claim of Odell was about $180,000. The bonds subsequently netted about 60 cents on the dollar. Mr. Hyde said Mr. Harriman suggested the settlement of the suit and the counsel and executive mem bers of the Mercantile Trust company ad vised It and he recommended it. Charges Against Har-laiss. , Charges of conspiracy to get him out of the country were made by Mr. Hyde against Henry C. Frlck and E. It. Harri man, In connection with the reported as pirations of Mr. Hyde to become ambas sador to France. He said Mr. Frick In spired the idea and witness took It as a Joke at first, but when Mr. Frlck brought It up later Mr. Hyde was flattered and both Mr. Harriman and Mr. Frlck promised to use their Influence to secure thiJ appoint ment. Again Mr. Hyde waxed bitter In his explanation of the extraordinary inter est these gentlemen exhibited In his ab sence from the country. Ha said he thought their Idea was "that they would ' themselves of their friendly I stewardship with great profit to them- selves." and added that the nature of their Interest had since become obvious. Bitter Toward Frlck. Mr. Hyde charged Mr. Frick with breach of faith in leading him to believe that the Frlck committee was "friendly" to him and with doing all he could to dissuade witness from selling his stock "at. the same time," as Mr. Hyde said, "doing everything on that committee he could to knife me and destroy the value of that stock." Mr. Hyde explained that he used "friend ly" In the Just sense of the word, and that If there was anything for which he could be criticised he waa willing to take what ever criticism came. Mr. Hyde said he did not think the report waa ut all fair and that the committee posed as his friends, while he was being attacked on the other side by Mr. Alexander and his friends under the sham of inutuallxatlon. Mr. Harriman. he said, asked him to give the adoption of the Frlck report at the meeting of the board, but Mr. Hyde said he absolutely declined, as it waa con demnatory of everything that had ever transpired In the society and he was ad vised by counsel that such a step would throw the Equitable Life Into the hands of a receiver. Mr. Hyde was excused until tomorrow, when his examination will be resumed. Kansas City Calls Pastor. KANSAS CITY, Nov. ll.-Rev. J.

In view of the condemnation to death of many of the sailor who mutinied at Cronstadt, the de lay In carrying out the reforms outlined In the Imperial manifesto, the proclama tion of martial law In Poland and other re pressive acts, the, council of workmen's delegates hare decided to proclaim a gen eral strike throughout Russia today. A state of war has been declared In Vladivostok. Private advices say that the . ninese quarters ens oeen aesiroyea ana t ... ..... , ' , 'that the s tuat on la now under control. In spite of the complete embargo placed on all telegrams from Vladivostok the news of the outbreak there leaked out of the Navy and War departments and became generally known throughout the city. Few details were available to the general public and the city was filled with the wildest rumors as to what was occurring In the eastern fortress. One report circulated on the Bourse today had the entire garrison and the sailori of all the ships in the har bor In emeute. This, following on the heels f the mutiny at Cronstadt, contributed to the demoralisation of the exchange. While the Information received by the Associated Press goes to show that, though order was today partly restored, a large part of the garrison stood Arm and the crisis has not been passed. Fears are expressed in admiralty and general staff circles that mob violence has flared out again and that this will necessitate a further resort to armed force. Martial law has been pro claimed and the authorities are conlldent of their ability to stamp out any disorders. Tsar Stays From Capital. Emperor Nicholas and the Russian court will riot come to St. Petersburg this winter. A short time ago It was announced that the emperor was about to return to the Winter palace. In an annex of which Count Wltte has Installed himself, but his majesty has now decided to go from Peterhof back to Tsarskoe Selo, where he has been living for almost two years with the exception of the last months spent at Petershof. Except on the occasion of the ceremony of blessing the waters last January, when the emperor narrowly escaped death, owing to a mys terious charge of grapeshot being fired In the direction of the Imperial party by a sa luting battery, the emperor has not stepped inside the winter palace for over eighteen months. His decision not to come to the capital Is regarded as unfortunate, not only for its moral effect, but because It keeps him sur rounded by court Influences and out of close. Immediate touch with Count Wltte, who at the present time should have daily, almost hourly conference with the rm peror. Members of his majesty's entourage have strongly advised against the emperor being In St.- Petersburg when the national assembly meets, as well as on account of the danger of popular disorders at the capl tol this winter, recalling to the emperor's mind, not without effect, the fatal results of Louis XVI, agreeing to leave Versailles and place himself at the mercy of the popu luce of parts In 1760. Poles Are Hnsy. The Polish delegation here Is working hard to secure the co-operation of the lib erals, social democrats and workmen's or ganisation In another general political trike In aid of .th'a Po)es' battle for auton- omy, but thus far. while they have met with much sympathy, no action has been taken for their assistance. Count Wltte, whom the deputation saw, was extremely Arm, declaring emphatically that the gov ernment would do nothing for Poland under compulsion and that martial law could not ' be abolished until the separatist movement ceases. The premier declared the most the Poles could expect In addition to the rights granted under tho reform manifesto was a separate general xemstvo for Poland and municipal self-government. The Polish del egates say that over 7,000 Polish prisoners are languishing In the Jails of Warsaw. The radical press today Is not sparing In this denunciation of the government's ac- ) ton In putting all Poland under martial lw, i declaring that It Is a plain violation of the splrlt of the reform manfesto, It Is evident that the government has re covered Its nerve and is determined to use severe measures it necessary to restore order. The agitation throughout the coun try at the exceptional powers conferred on the aides-de-camp of the emperor, who were dispatched to the central provinces, where agragrlan ' disorders are spreading is proof of this. Weak Gorernors Removed. At the same time half a dosen governors. Including the governors of Odessa, Tomsk and Kazan, who signally failed to prevent disorders, have been summarily dismissed at Count Wltte's Instigation. The clergy with other classes, continue their Inter cessions for the Cronstadt mutineers, 151 of whom are reported to have been con demned to death. A hundred orthodox priests, at a meeting held at the residence of the Metropolitan Antonius, formulated and dispatched an apeal for mercy to the emperor. A number of army officers, indignant at the action of Lieutenant Froloff of the Imperial Horse Guards, who recently sabered Prof. Tarle of the Polytechnic in stitute, have Joined in a proposal to boy cott Froloff and all of the other officers of the Horse Guards unless the lieutenant FROM TEXAS lonie Coffee Farts From the l.oue Star Mate.

"I have since continued the use of Poatum for I have grown fond of it, and have discovered to my Joy that it has en tirely relieved me of a bilious habit which used to prostrate, me two or three times a year, causing much discomfort to my family and suffering to myself. "My brother-in-law was cured of chronic constipation by leaving off the old kind of coffee and using Postum. He has become even more fond of it than he waa of the old coffev.

The Foreign office says nothing of the kind has occurred and that nothing of that nature will occur. Emperor William has had no communication on the subject with Emperor Nicholas or the Russian gov ernment. The Polish question so far us Germany Is concerned does not exist ou. slde of Germany, if, however, the Russian Poles rise up and the movement for Polish autonomy sprends to the Polish provinces of Prussia, the latter will firmly supprt ss It in the Prussian Polish provinces. But Russia must manage Its own difficulties, as It Is the fixed policy of Germany not to In terfere in the Internal affairs of its neigh bors. Moderates Galnlnw In Moscow.

POLES PROTEST TO WITTE Say Demonstrations at Motrotr Are Not (or Autonomy. ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 14-Count Wltte today received from the Warsaw commlt- Je" of e "octal democracy of Poland and Lithuania an Indignant telegraphic denial of the charge that the present movement In Poland Is designed to secure separation. The dlnpatch said: "The official note Justifying the procla mation of martial law In Poland as osten- ";,.yor the PurP8e ' frustrating a sepa- ...t .,,i,viiir-iii is tx criminal maneuver or the government Intended to divide the Polish from the Russian revolutionary movement. We call attention to the fact that the authorities having drowned our revolutionary processions In blood and hav ing allowed full freedom to other Polish demonstrations at which the White Eagle were displayed and where Slenklowlcz and other orators pledged with the workmen : to return to their shops and restore peace, j We affirm that the revolutionary Polish proletariat, .together with the revolutionary Russian proletariat, seek common freedom and not separation. " . The Poles here also deny that they de sire separation. M. Menshikoff, In a strong article, warns the government that it would be fatal to spill the blood of Poland, ar guing that autonomy could be granted without danger to the empire and that with such a solution Russia could always count on the powerful, firm flriendHhlr. of the Polish people. The Novoe Vrenrja alone vigorously supports the government's firm attitude. ROOT WORKING ON TARIFF Secretary of Stat Gives Karnes t Attention to t.rrman Proposal. ' WASHINGTON. Nov. 14 -Secretary Root Is giving earnest attention to the tariff relations between Germany and the I'nlted States. The secretary hopes to have some concrete proposition to submit to congress during the approaching session, but It Is evident that it cannot be presented before the next calendar year, as a number of conferences will be. necessary before the executive branch and Individual legislators as a preliminary to the execution of Secre tary Root's plan to submit only sucli a treaty or proposal as Is reasonably certain to secure the approval of at least a major ity In congress or perhaps a two-thirds vote In the senate. It Is probable that an attempt will be made immediately to reach a tin dua vlvendl or provisional arrangement which shall pre vent 'an open rupture or tariff war between the two nations pending the conclusion of negotiations for a new treaty. "SQUARE DEAL" FOR CLAIMANTS Motto of President Taken by Men Having, Bills Asalaat I nele Sam. WASHINGTON. Nov. 14.-The words of the president, "square deal." are being worked vigorously by many persona who have old claims or requests upon the gov ernment. Many of the cases, which ara known In the departments as "old slugs," because of the many times they have been considered and rejected, have again been presented with a demand for a "square deal." An officer of the army to whom all such cases in the War department are referrred for report, says that all these claims for reinstatement In the service or for advanced retired rank, or claims for property taken, all of which have hereto fore been passed UKn and decided ad' versely t the claimant, set out that what they ask now Is a "square deal." and many of them Insist that their requests be pte- aented to the president. to riKR a (otn m nK nr Take Laxative Broino Quinine Tablets Trugists lefund money If l tails to cnr.

The most serious complaints that linve lieen made to me hive Ixen of Improper discrimination In railroad rates. r Instance. In two re cent r affecting great corporations the complaints that have leen made to me have hern that they are too low as re gards certain big snippers; the complaint in both these cases Is about the differential, the difference of treatment of two sets of users of the railroads, the difference In favor of one jet f shljpcrs as against nn oth"r set of shtp;ors.

Railways Mast Be Regulated. If you will look at my Raleigh speech and my other recent utterances you will see mv principles clearly set forth. I have said acaln and aynln tlvt 1 would not tolerate for one moment any Injustice to a railrond, any more thnn I would tolerate anv Injus tice by a railroad. I have said again and again that 1 would remove a public official who improperly yielded to anv public clamor against a railroad, no matter how popular that clamor might be. Just as quickly as I would remove a public official who rendered an Improper service to the railroad at ttut expense of the public But I am convinced that there must be an In creased rcgulatorv and supervisory power exercised by the government over the rail ways. Indeed. I would like It exercised to a much greater ettent than I have any Idea of pressing at the moment. For Instance, 1 would greatly like to have It exercised In the matter of overcapitalization. I am con vinced that the "wage fund'' would be larger if there was no fictitious capital upon which dividends had to be paid. I need hardly say that this does not mean hostility to wealth. If you gentlemen here, in whom I believe so strongly, were all a unit In demanding that some Improper ac tion should he taken against certain men of wealth, then, no matter whether I did or did not like those same men of wealth, I would defend them against yot,, no matter how much I cared for you: and In so doing I would really be acting In your own Inter eat. 1 would be false to your Interests If I failed to do Justice to the capitalist as much as to the wage-worker. Hut I shall uct aaalnst the abuses of wealth Just as against all other abuses. The outcry against rate regulation Is of much the same charac ter as that I encountered when I waa en gaged in putting through that car coupling business, or in endeavoring to seenre cer tain legislation in which you all have been interested, such as the employers' liability law. Square Deal for All. Most certainly 1 will join with you in re sisting to the utmost any movement to hurt or damage any railroads which act de cently, for I would hold that such damage was not merely to the capitalist, not merely to the wageworker engaged on the rail roads, but to all the country. My aim Is to secure the Just and equal treatment of the public by those 1 1 trust and believe u limited number) who do not want to give It, Just as much as by the larger number who do want to give it. All I want in any rate legislation Is to give the government an effi cient supervisory power which shall lie ex ercised as scrupulously to prevent Injustice to the railroads as to prevent their doing injustice to the nubile. Our endeavor is to see that those big railroad men and big shippers, who are not responsive to the de mands of Justice, are required to do what their fellows who are responsive to the de mands of Justice would he glad to do of their own accord. Coal Operators Also Object. LOUISVILLE, Ivy., Nov. 14.-A petition to President Roosevelt and congress against the Esch-Townsend bill or any similar rate legtslntkin designed to inter fere, ,wltU the fixing of rates by the roads 'themselves was the result of a meeting of mine owners and operators representing fifty-three of the biggest Coal mines In Kentucky and seventy coal companies, held In this city today.

In order that similar action may be taken In other states and make the opposition of the coal men one ot the most Important factors which congress will have to consider In determining its attitude on the railroad bill at the coming session.

LITTLE BOY ONE Not One Square Inch of Skin on His Whole Body Unaffected -Awful Suffering from Raw' Itching Humor Screams Were Heart breakingSkin Peeled 20 Times. WONDERFUL CURE BY CUTICURA REMEDIES " My little son, a boy of five, broke out with an itching rah. Three doc tors prescribed for him, but he kept getting worse ipatil we could not dress him any more. They finally advised me to try a certain medical College, but its treatment did no good. At the time I was induced to try Cuticura he was so bad that I had to cut his hair off and put the Cuticura Ointment on him on bandages, an it was impos sible to touch him with the bare hand. There waa not one square inch of skin on his whole body that was not affected. He was one ma of sores. The band ages used to stick to his tkin and in removing them it used to take the skin off with them, and the screams from the poor child were heart-breaking. I began to think that he would never get well, but after the second application of Cuticura Ointment I legan Ut see signs of improvement, and with the third and fourth applications the sores commenced to dry up. His ekin jn-eled off twenty times, but it finally yielded to the treatment. Now 1 can say that he is entirely cured, and a stronger and healthier bov you never saw than he is to-day.
