In the same proclamation Presdent Castro gave utterance to what might be taken as a farewell message; . "The Venesuelaa nation Is already on the road to the! true prosperity and greatness because of the strict fulfillment of obliga tions and the conditions of the revenues, and because of the state of peace which we enjoy and which it Is your duty to main tain, that my work may endure."' On December 11 the people of Caracas arose against Castro. They tore down the statutes and pictures of the president and burned them in the public places; they wrecked buildings and applied . the torch, sweeping through the city and gathering strength and fury with every new act of violence. Gomes was far from secure. It was brought forcibly home ta him that he must either withdraw from , that office or cast aside those of Castro's ministers who still were trying to force the CMtro rule upon the people. Apparently he chose the latter course. He first declared the country In a state of defense, thereby securing control of the army, and then appointed a new cabinet. Active Salesmen Bee Want Ads.

JURY BANCS-IN" BANK TRIAL Disagreement in Cam of James H. rarrish of Owensboro, Ky. DEFENDANT STATS IN CHURCH Sines In t holr Dnrlnst Proseeatlon, Though Accused of Causing State's Largest Bank Failure.' HAWESVIIJyE. Ky., Dee. 21. After hav Ing been out since last Friday, the Jury In the esse against James H. Parrlsh, an Owensboro (Ky.) banker, charged with re ceiving a deposit whrn his bank, the Owensboro 8avlngs bank and Trust com pany, was Insolvent, today reported that It could not Apree and was discharged. An alleged liability of about S1,0C0.0X was Involved In the receivership of the bank, the disaster to which last April affected Kentucky, southern Indiana snd Cincin nati correspondents and depositors. It was the largest failure in the history of Ken tucky. The specific charge was that of II. T. Martin, who asserted that Farrlsh, who, with two brothers, was In charge of the Owensboro Savings bank affairs, had re ceived a deposit of $10 a few days before the bank went under. The state during the trial, which lasted over a week, offered proof that the Par tial! bank was Involved for over a mil lion when It failed and Introduced evidence purporting to show that loans had been exacted of friendly brokers In time to pad quarterly statements and to ward off In vestigation. A few days after the Owens boro Savings bank failed, the Daviess County Bank and Trust company, of which T. S. Anderson was president, also failed. Anderson was a close friend of Parrlsh In religious and social circles, and he with the, other two Parrlsh brothers, is now under Indictment. The alleged mismanagement of the Owensboro Savings bank developed last April after a general investigation by the bankers of that city. The secretary of stats had a receiver appointed, who . de clared the bank's condition deplorabln, and who is now engaged in paying off deposi tors. Publlo Indignation was at such a pitch that a special- Judge was appointed to try the case in Hancock county, away from the scene of the alleged swindling. Parrlsh Is a devout churchman, and on the Sunday which Intervened during the trial here he sang 1n a local choir. CAREGIE ON STEEL (Continued from First Page.) the witness declared that honest men easily could differ on that question. The stool business, he said, was a business by Itself, and the cost to one man was a very dif ferent thing from the cost to another. "When a gentleman of Judge Gary's char acter," ho said, "comes to you and tells you he does not want a tariff you 'ought to believe tirm." He insisted In reply to questions by Mr. "Bonynge that the rail ways were not paying too much for steel rails. The steel rail makers tie thought were making a talr profit. "How about other- steel products besides steel rails T"' Mr.' Bonynge inquired. "I have not a 'word to say," Mr, Car negie replied. "That's out of my province." Mr. CarneVli on Judge Gary. Mr. Ford retiltW1 the testimony of Mr. Schwab and was Interrupted by Mr. Car negie with the' remark that "he Is a genius." Breaking in upon a Scotch story which Mr. Carnegie related and in the course of which the witness mentioned the' name of Judge Gary. Ho was asked it It was in tended to characterise Mr. Gary as "a sleek article." "Oh, no," said Mr. Carnegte. "On the contrary he is most lovable man. It means that he Is shrewd, it means that he has a delightful, svreet nature." "Would you recommend an Income tax to make up the- deficit In the revenues T" Mr. Fordney asked. "I believe," replied Mr. Carnegie de liberately, "with Mr. Gladstone, who has bad more experience with the -income tax than any man of his day that ad Income tax makes a nation of liars. Of all the de moralising taxes that a nation can impose upon the people the income tax is the worst." "You agree with Gladstone In that?" in terjected Chairman Payne. "I do," the steel magnate replied. "So do I," said the chairman. "If you want to do harm with money, give It away to those people who will not struggle for themselves," was one of the numerous epigrams brightening Mr. Car negie's unique testimony. Reward for Cleverness. "That applies to the tariff on steel," he added. "I think the man who can make three or four dollars more profit than a lazy, Inert corporation management should be allowed to make that profit for his country's good," was an opinion expressed by Mr. Carnegie, when being questioned with regard co what he considered a rea sonable profit. Dealing largely In generalities, Mr. Car negie said he wanted It understood that his statements represented his opinion solely. He said that he came before the committee because summoned and that he gave his testimony because he thought It his duty as an American citizen. "I did not volunteer It," he said. Pressed with questions from all sides, Mr. Carnegie arose from his seat and dra matically declared that "he was a protec tionist." "I desire," he said; "tcC furnish to the consumer a cheaper supply and more reg ular supply than he ccAild get abroad and if after forty years' experience we cannot develop steel with that condition, our pro tective policy In that Instance would have been a failure Instead of a triumphant suc cess it has become. Pointing his finger at the committee and raising his voice to its highest pitch he declared that the steel Industry was now In the poedtloo where it can say: "Take your protection. We are now men and we can beat the world In the manufacture of steel." "There is no reason for the tariff on steel," he again emphasised. "You should not coddle the Industry with protection." A recess at this point was ordered, Mr. Carnegie Inquiring if the committee was through with him. - "No,' came a chorus of voices. "This Is cruel,' remarked the steel mag nate as he retired from the room. "His solicitude for his weaker brethren Is sublime," said Mr. Carnegie, referring to Judge Garys' contention the smaller steel manufacturers could pot stand for the abo lition of the d.uty on -steel. No Steel - Imported. Mr.' CSrnegie said the manufacturers of Wales could make a ton of tin plate a shade cheaper than It could be made here, and that the cost of manufacturing steel is greater In Great Britain than here. He said the committee should send experts familiar with the steel Industry to the large mills of Europe to study the question of com parative coot of labor. "It la a condition and not a theory that concerns the committee at this time," said Renresentatlve Long-worth In reply. "It Is understood tat ths president-elect will call a special session of congress for the pur pose of exacting a tarlCf, bill and we must prepare a bill for It to pass on. We have no tima to srnd experts to Burnr. Whst 1 want to know is what authority aside from testimony given by you and Judge Gary, who I don't think went as far ss you do, have for taking the duty off of steel." Mr. Carnegie pointed out that there Is practically no foreign-made steel Imported Into this country. "Do you know of any combination to fix the price of tin plate Internationally?" asked Mr. Hill. "No," "Do you know of any combination to fix thn price of wire nulls?" "No." Mr. Carnegie replied. "I am not so positive about the existence of a combina tion to fix the price of steel rails. In fact, I am without knowledge of any combina tion of any kind." Labor Costs Leas Here. Mr. Carnngle told the committee It must not base Its conclusions on the comparison of the cost of labor In this country and abroad as furnished them by witnesses. "If it takes two men In Great Britain to turn out as much steel as It takes one man here with our modem appliances, the difference would not be so great," was his argument. "The cost of producing rails at Gary won't be half as much as In England, notwith standing the cheaper cost of labor abroad." Representative Gaines was desirous of ob- talnlng-Mr. Carnegie's views as to the needs for the tariff for the small manufacturer of steel. ' Mr. Carnegie explained that there were no small manufacturers of steel products, but Mr. Gaines persisted that there were small manufacturers who make some special articles from steel. "I don't know any small manufacturer who makes Just one article of steel snd I would not regard him. I would think he had not managed well," said Mr. Carnegie. Mr. Gaines wanted to know If it was not possible for a man to go Into the steel busi ness to manufacture a specialty, or If It would not be If there was no tariff to protect him. "There Is always room for the enterpris ing man to make a specialty, and besides, he gets a. high price for' his article," was Mr. Carnegie's comment. "The man who would go Into the general steel bustness without the proper capital is a man you need not concern yourself about- Things that are used by the thousands cannot be made now except on a large scale." Mr. Carnegie further admitted that the time for the smaller manufacturer of steel Is past, except for the man making a special article. Crosier Taken Opposite View. Mr. Carnegie concluded his testimony shortly before 6 o'clock and was about to leave when Alfred O. Crosier of Wilming ton, Del., asked permission to be heard. He also askod Mr. Carnegie to remain and hear his remarks, explaining that they would be in the nature of a criticism of the former steel king's views on the tariff. Mr. Car negie took a seat with the evident purpose of listening to Mr. Crosier, but the latter had net proceeded far when Mr. Cam gle arose and said that he had been before the committee all day and that it was pretty tiresome. He begged to be excused, but said that he would like to get a copy of Mr. Crosler's remarks after they are printed. "I shall read it with pleasure," he said, "and If ths gentleman criticises me I shall say: What a pity that man does not know better,' and If he is with me I shall prob ably say 'what a wise young man he Is.' " With a few parting words of regret be cause he could not stay Mr. Carnegie took his departure. . - Mr. Crosier addressed his remarks prin cipally -to the magazine article recently pub lished over Mr. Carnegie's name, which he said dealt a severe blow to the entire pro tective system. He said that Mr. Carnegie haa kindled wide doubt as to the wisdom,' necessity and value of protection. Mr. Cro sier claimed that Mr. Carnegie's proposl tlon to take the duty off of steel would have the effect of leaving the United States Steel corporation forever In undisputed pos session of the American field. NIGHT RIDERS' SECRETS OUT (Continued from First Page.) himself, but every attempt ended in fail ure. It did elicit the fact that the night Captain Rankin was killed Garrett Johnson carried an automatic 82-callbre revolver of the latest pattern. This revolver will play an Important part in the effort of the state to fasten the crime upon the man under arrest. Fehrlnger frankly admitted that he had sold liquor illegally, had been Indicted and convicted for this offense both in Tennes see and Kentucky. However, he never denied Ills guilt and never perjured him self to escape punishment. The witness was a tartar under cross-examination, only once when asked about a date, he replied that he did not keep a "dairy," meaning a diary. When the defendant's attorneys attempted to quia him about milk, ths wit ness said: "I used It when I was small, I'm told, but have not since." He said his home had been under his hat for years end he did not care much where he stopped. Asked where he got his money, he said to Attorney Pierce: "I got It like you got that $10 from me for defending me when you did not do r."

MRS, ANNIS TAKES STAND Widow of Slain Man Gives Damsrlag Evidence A Brains t Thornton llalns. FLUSHING, N. Y., Dec. SI. The trial of Thornton Jenkins Halns reached a climax of dramatlo intensity today, when Mrs. Helen B. Annls, wife of William A. Aanls, In a deliberate rectal, lastng for nearly three hours pictured the killing of her hus band as hs sat at the tiller of his boat, by Captain ePter C. Halns, Jr. Mrs. Annls snarly fainted a few minutes before Sor examination was concluded, but quickly re covered. It was a hard day for the de fense and counsel for Halns was exhausted from the cross-examination which was di rected toward the state's witnesses in an effort to shake their testimony. Thornton Halns lost much of the easy nonchalence that has characterised bis manner in pre vious sessions. When led from the court by two deputy sheriffs the prisoner ap peared dejected and careworn. Mrs. Annls made an impressive figure on the witness stand as she told In a quiet manner her story of August 15, at the Bay side Yacht club. Several new points added dramatlo interest to the trial. When Annls' boat came along the float the widow testi fied. Thornton Halns beckoned . to his brother and led the way down the runway. The shooting followed wtihin a few mo ments. Lawyer Mclntyre sought to discredit the "beckoning episode," which ths state as serts proves that the author induced the army officer to the crime, and kept Mrs. Annls on this point under cross-examination for nearly half an hour. Halna' coun sel developed that Mrs. Aanla had not until last week told District Attorney Dar rln that the defendant had beckoned to his brother. "X ran down ths runway and Thornton Halns pointed hts revolver at me. I turned to go bacg and he.; pressed the weapon against my back, saying." You get out of here or you will get the same.' I ran up the runway, .nod .looking , back, saw my husband fall Into th water So said Mrs. Annls In relating her story snd this new evidence ths lawyers for Holns struggled vainly to discredit. Another Important witness was Charles H. Roberts, a Bayslde Yacht club mem ber and an eye witness of the shooting. No one is more sorry than I sm. I Jtave been trying to prevent this thing for some time," was the slstement developed from Mr. Roberts upon which Halns counsel will rely to a large meaaurs In ths defense ot the story writer. The witness told a clear story of the shooting, supplying many of the details of the killing not testified to by previous wit nesses. Roberts said that Thornton Halns had pointed his revolver at him while the shooting was In progress and threatened his life. The revolvers of the Halns broth ers wers placed In evidence- today. That Thornton Halns was armed in the manner of a plainsman was shown today. when a leather holster, which la strapped around the waist and enables tho owner to make a quick play, was Identified by Rob erts ss one taken from Halns after the shooting.
