Next to the-premier, John Burns was the hero of .ilio evening. ' He was acclaimed by coutlnuoua applause and musical honors until the, picturesque labor member of the tliblnet was apparently embarrassed. The premier said the fiscal question was the prime issue cf the campaign against a government whose ministry "made a mid night flitting yn a murky Decemlier even ing." Will Stop Coolie Importation.

Blr 'Henry first expressed his kindly feeling toward Russia In its present trials. The case of Germany, he said, he saw no reason what soever for estrangement and welcomed the unofficial demonstrations of friendship which had recently passed between the two countries. Regarding the United States, France and Japan, the premier accepted the existing conditions and approve every thing which tended towards peace. Sir Henry upheld this announcement with another, which elicited great' applause. He said that the growth of .armaments was a areat danger, that fore ' was not the only remody and lhat. economy . must be adopted. The government would oppose aggression and would be animated by a desire to remain on the best" ternis with all nationalities and .co-operate in the cutnmon work of civilization. , In this, he pointed put, the government had a' notable ally In the present fiscal system, which was a great guarantee of peace. .He re Juiced that the principle of arbitration had madu great strides. Policy of Retrenchment. In general terms the premier outlined his policy for retrenchment and for a .complete system of government by the people "for the good of the greatest number," In equally general terms he gave notice that most of the' domestic acts of the late government would be reversed by the in coming liberal government and he made a powerful bid for the popular vote. Woman suffragists who had entered the meeting waved flaps and demanded that women should be granted the right to vote.

Vanderpoel Follows laiioui. ' Isaac Vanderpoel, chief examiner of the Insurance department, followed Mr. Hend ricks and detailed whnt was done at un examination: He said that practically It was. a comparison of the company's sworn report with the books He had never known of wash sales nor of the year-end loans; he had never known the salary of President McCurdy of the Mutual, nor had he ever Inquired what it was. The salaries are In one lump sum in the salary account and he had never taken steps to find out If these moneys had been paid for that purpose. The large expenditures In the supply department had 'never excited hla curiosity, although the vouchers had been looked at at random. These were stamped with the approval of the expenditure com mittee and he had never questioned their I legitimacy of purpose. . The vouchers for the I23A.0O0 payments t,o the chairman of i the expenditure committee he had seen. but never inquired Into. Mr. Vanderpoel said all examinations were conducted in this manner, that he . never tried to go back of a voucher ar book entry. This was a custom which had prevailed ever since he had been in the department. Wr.. Vanderpoel was -on the stand when adjournment was takeu until tomorrow morning.

ACCUSES PRESIDENT OF TAKING A HAND m lss.es statement In Which lie na Roosevelt and Ullne Are lain Inftaence sad He Will Flht. NEW YORK, Dec. Jl. Former Governor B. B. Odell, Chairman of the state republi can committee, made a statement today in which he charged President Roosevelt and Governor Higglns with a deliberate at tempt to wreck the republican party of this state for their pwn personal ambi tions. He declared that If disaster ensued they, not he, will be responsible. Mr. Odell'a accusations were a part of his comment on the situation growing out of the contest In the republican party in this state for the speakership of the Now i Yoik state assembly. Mr. Odell declared himself In favor of E. A. Merrltt, jr., sev eral days ago. On Monday last Governor Higglns came out In favor of J. W. Wadsworth, Jr. Mr. Odell said today: "I notice that Governor Higglns said he never was for Merrltt. Shortly . after election I went to Oovernor Higglns and asked him whom he waa for for speaker. He eliminated all but Merrltt and said that neither New York nor buffilo could have It, . because It would stir up opposi tion against the cities. I asked him If Merrltt would be satisfactory to him and he acked me to see Merrltt and ask him some questions. I saw Merrltt and reported : . . . . . t ., to the governor and he said he was satis- fled. 1 clearly understood he was for Mer rill, and was never so surprised as when he switched his trolley. This Is the worst j case of duplicity In politics I have ever i known. Merrltt la absolutely right In say big that the governor agreed to support him. He offend to the governor to stay out i of the contest if the governor wanted him to do so. Am President. "Led by the collarless and coail-ss young ' man who took us all to defeat In 1MI1 (ap parently referring to J. Sloat Fassett), Wil li im Barnes, jr., Colonel George V. Dunn and others with sore thumbs, visited Wash ington and strrred up this trouble. If President Roosevelt had the good of the party at heart he could have aunt for me at any time and I would have been, glad to confer with him for the sake of obtain- j ing harmony In the -party. If that had been done all this troublu would have been avoided without warfare. "I charge President Roosevelt and Oov ernor Higglns with deliberately trying to wreck the party In this state for their own personal ambitions. If this means party disaster,, they, and pot I and my friends, are responsible. They and not I are to blame. . "So far 'as gratitude IS concerned. Gov ernor Higglns certainly owed ine some thing. . Instead of putting out the hands of friendship he chooses to throw stones at those, who havt',heen his friends. Hig gins could have told' me that he did not want me nor Merrltt to be In this affair, but Instead he throws stones. If the president wanted reform I was friendly and they could have had it. I c-harge him and Oovernor Higginft' with Injecting their personality Into thfs" matter. Their har mony Consists 6 , 'Jniocklng.'

The president sent ror uicotc (formerly candidate for chairman of the New York county committee) and then threw hint down." .' Speaking of the candidacy of Congress man Herbert Parsons for president of the Kpw York county committee, Mr. Odell said: "Parsons' Idea of party harmony Is to throw bricks at my friends. There was no talk of Odeil or antl-Odell in the county committee. . The trouble was all due to Mr. Fasselt. He changes oftener than the tides. We are in for harmony if we have to fight fqr It. , j I make the prediction that Wadsworth ! will not be elected as speaker. We will j put him out." ; Will Stay at Head. Mr. Odell says lie does not know who the Hlggiua following will support for state chairman. "Is It Fassett?". wS asked. . "I hope so." said Mr. Odell. At a dinner of republicans of the Thirty fifth assembly district, in the Bronx, last night, Mr. Odell told! those present that he Intended to remain as chairman of the state committee until the party indicates that it wants a change. From no matter how high a source, he said, demands will not affect his attitude. State Senator Maltby. speaking of the speakership embrogllo. declared today that Oovernor Higglns' action in naming Wads worth as his cundidate for speaker was an "impeachable offense." "I never knew of such . coercion," con tinued the senator. ! "The governor sn nounces himself for Wadsworth and then up steps his insurance commissioner, who has retained hla position . under consider able difficulties and declares that his three men are. fur Wadsworth. Then Railroad Commissioner Aldrldge. whom Governor Hirelns appointed lately, also announces hlmself for Wadsworth. and the effect of the governor's coercion is evident, is it not?" "Can you say whether you intend to take steps to impeach the governor?" "That depends on what more is done in the mstter. I shall hold that In reserve," ALBANY. N..Y.. Dee. 21.

Tho governor's statement was made ver bally, but dictated with more than ordinary care and deliberation, to the group of news, l-aper correspondents. He said: I hav read the statement of Oovernor Odell, sent out this afternoon from New tork ami piinusneo in tne evening pspre.

I think he must have forgotten oui last conference In New York last Friday. Previous to mv going to New Tork I IumI turned, through several members of the assembly that called upon me, that Gov ernor Odell was using iny name for the purpose of securing pledges for Mr. Mer rlt for speaker. I asked him by what au- thnrltv hf mlntf r u ir, Ill tt, 1,1 me. he thought that at a conference a 1 month previous he had satisfied me that Mr. fsrrltt t-a li ttrnimr mnn in ftnn- port for the place. I at that time (Inst j Friday) asked him if he would agre upon any other candidate any man In the leala lature. He told me be would not: that he I was pledged to Mr. Merrltt and Mr. Mer- j rltt would not withdraw. I do not care to discuss with Governor Odell through the press questions of honesty or dlshonely. Po fnr as tiie future of the renuhlicin rertv Is concerned, I think that can sif !v e trusted with, the press sn.l the p it1e as to wbethT mv action Is wise or unwie. That l all I care to say on the subject. Oovernor Higglns referred today to the statement sent out last night from Wash ington In which It waa declared with an- ' thority that President Roosevelt had not known In advance of the governor's stiirges tion of James W. Wadsworth. Jr., for ipenker of the state assembly. "I believe the statement Is true," said I the governor; "I know It to be true. I I wish to say further that I have had no communication with the president, verbal or otherwise, on the subject of the speak ership. In my recent visit to Washington I had an extended conversation with him. but the speakership was not among the subjects discussed. While It Is true that the president Is not Interfering, and I be lieve would not Interfere In the election of a speaker of the assembly of this state, I have every reason to believe that he would be very much pleased to hear that the as sembly had chosen Mr. Wadsworth as speaker." The governor was asked about an al lusion by Senator Maltby to possible Im peachment proceedings aaainst hltn as a consequence of his action In the speaker- 1 1 1 rv -na. A- tta wn,,l.4 t .1la,,a.

The general insisted that there were enough of the faithful to pre serve the autocracy unshaken, but that they must organise and suppress the crim inal elements, and he hud accepted his present post because he wished to be in the forfront ot the battle, where he could show his devotion to the emperor.
