MOIIONK LAKE. N. T.. Oot. Jl.-The
platform of the Lake Mohonk conference,
an annual feature of the gathering, was
presented at today's session. In part it
says:
' "As the result of nearly fifty years of
public debate, the people of this country
bave wisely adopted as the policy, of he
nation the abandonment of the reservation
system, tho dissolution of the tribal or
ganizations and the incorporation of the
Indians aa individual members of American
communities. The Indian problem has now
become almost .wholly one of administra
tion In carrying this policy Into effect.
"And your committee recognises with
grateful appreciation the ateady Improve
ment during the last quarter of a century
in the personnel of the Indian service, the
self-denying and sometimes heroic work
of many of Its representatives in the field,
the efficiency and vigor with which those
principles of administration are being car
ried Into effect by the Indian bureaus, and
It expresses the hope that within the life
time of the present generation the work
of the bureau may have been successfully
accomplished, the bureau Itself may be dis
continued and the Indian problem, may
have become an affair of the past."

NEW YORK, Oct. Sl.XICdgar Allen Poe
is at last Inthe Hall of Fame. Years of ef
fort on the rart of staunch supporters to
get his name added to the list were re
warded today by the announcement of
IT. John II. MacCracken, chairman of the
senate of New York university, that the
author of "The Raven," with' ten others,
had been accorded this honor. The eleven
names added are as follows: Harriet
Beecher Stowe, 74 votes; Oliver Wendell
Holmes and Kdgar Allen Poe, W ovtes
each; Roger Williams, 64; James Fenlmoro
Cooper, 6J; Phillips Brooks, 60; William
Cullen Bryant, 6fl; Frances K. Willard, i6;
Andrew Jackson, George Bancroft, 63 each
and John Lathrop Motley, 61.
The total number of ballots cast was 97
and the number required for choice was 51.
Poe's vote jumped from 42 In 1905 to 63, an
Increase of Z7 voles. An analysis of the
vote shows that of this 6'J votes 21 were
cast 21 were cast by college presidents, 17
by professors of history and scientists, i
by publicists, editors and uuthors. and U
by Jurists.
Appreciated In West. .
Contrary to the general impression, the
memory' o fthe poet la as famous In the
west as In the south, according to the vote.
Since the laat election tils fame increased
more among college, presidents than among
any of the other groups. As a result of
today s election the authors' corner doubles
Its population and goes far ahead of the
statesmen in number. Eleven bronze lab
lets for the names chosen will be desig
nated with an appropriate quotation from
tha words of eaeli and the formal unveiling
wilt take place in October, 1911, in the
Hall of Fame at New York university.
The vote of seventy-four for Harriet
Beecher Stowe Is noteworthy, as the only
one who received such a majority In the
election in I'-'Oi was Louis Agass.s. and in
the f,lrt,vlec;tlpn tba nuiuber.was surpusav.
by only fourteen names. Including Wash-
Ington, Lincoln, Grant and Kmerson. One
of the most interesting results Is that
whereas the historian, Motley, gained four
votes over the election of five years ago,
tho historian Park man lost two votes.
Phillips Brooks gained eleven votes, Oliver
Wendell Holmes Increased twenty votes,
his competitors, Lowell' and Whlttler, hav
ing been removed by election.
Women Are Chosen.
In the vote for women the names chosen
are those of women who were not ell si bin
at the last election, not having been dead
tn years at that time. Of those who were
voted for in the last election, but still lack
the necessary votes, Charlotte Saunders
Cushman shows a gain from thirty-nine to
forty-five votes, Martha Washington from
thirty-two to forty-three and Lucretla Molt
from thirty-three to foriy-one.

LONDON, Oot. 21. -The defense In the

with the murder of his wife, rested today
with the summing up address by Counsel
Alfred A. Tobln. Richard Mulr will close
for the prosecution tomorrow morning,
after which the case will go to the jury.
A verdict Is expected tomorrow afternoon.
For four Jiours today Dr. Crlppen was
subjected to a searching cross-examination
by Mr. Mulr. He stood the ordeal well.
His answers were given in a calm, well
modulated voice and at no time did he loso
his composure. This was not without an
effort on his part and when he returned
to tho prisoners' dock he was deathly pale

Crlppen clung to his original story, His
wife's fondness for another led to an es

HYPOCRISY OF WORLD-HERALD
Once Shouted for Light, Now Wants
Veil Drawn.
BARTLEY WILL TELL OLDHAM
Wires to lhalruian nyrncs Ills Wlll
Inaness to tio Before Kearacy
-Ma a with Ills Proof and
Abide Drclslon.
(From a Staff Correspondent.;
LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 21. (Special. )--Tho
Hitchcock-liar! ley exposure occupies the,
attention of the public around here almost
to tho exclusion of everything else- It la
the topic of ecu . ci atlon wherever two or
more people cmii. 1 1 ale. And one foaturg
of the awful coni e.sslon made by Mr.
Hitchcock, whether he borrowed sta:o
money or Bartley money, showed a streak
that does not belong In a United States
senator. That feature is this: After ad
mitting thut lie had burrowed money from
Hartley, that the statu treasurer hud come
to his asMHtanco ul a time, when tho
wolVcs wcio howling a tthe door of tha
World-Herald oiflce; when he knew not
whera to secure bread for his family, when
starvation and ruin whs on covety hand
and the gifts of his relatives wets about
to be swept away from hlni, and his
ailKlocratlc heud was abcul to be bowed
down in poverty and want, he appealed to
republican state treasurer, Joseph 8.
Hartley, for help, lie appealed not in vain.
Hartley advanced the money. The wolf
was scared awuy, tho Omaha editor took
on new II ic and his business prospered.
His family was fed and he took his place
among tho wealthy men of tho day.
W hen Tide Turned.
Then hard times fell upon Pauley. Those
whom ho had saved from financial ruin
came not to ills rescue. They saw htm
carried to the stato prison, a convict
scarred for life; taken from bis home and
from his family. And as Joseph S.
Bartley grew pule Hnd thin in his prison
cell which he could havu filled with thosu
who had helped to place him theio by
being partners In is crime, Oilborl M.
Hitchcock prospcd-rd and grew rich.
Bartley louulu his w..y out of piUon.
Ho needed money Just as Gilbert M. Hitch--cock
needed money. Ho appealed to Mr.
Hitchcock to ray back that ' which h
owed him. .1 '
Ho appealed in vnln. Gilbert M. Hitchcock
knew him not. When tho request was made
for a settlement and the note signed by
Hitchcock pieehtcd to him, he repudiated
it. He defied Joseph S. Hartley to bring
suit for Its collection. He threatened hltn
with criminal libel should suit be brought
to collect it.
"The debt Is outlawed," was the reason
Hitchcock advanced for his refusal to help
the man who had saved him from poverty,
his family from disgrace and made it pos
sible for him to live and succeed. Hartley
was In sore straits, and the opulent Mr.
Hitchcock, made opulent by the gtneroslty
of the state treasuier, forced this man who
had served a term In prison with his lips
securely scaled, to take only a small por
tlon of tho amount due. In exchange for
the Hitchcock papers.
Hitchcock, the democratic candidate for
United States senator, the editor of the
World Herald, tho much-talked of head of
Investigating committees; Hltchock, tlw
moralist, made his own statement that the
note Par. ley held was outlawed. He gavo
that as his defense, for not paying It. a
debt thut was contracted at a time whn
he admitted hi credit was had; money that
he admitted saved him from bankruptcy.
Not of Senatorial Caliber.
"Hitchcock is not mails of the stuff of
which our United Slates senators should
be." said a prominent democrat today, In
dlscusi-ing tho exposure, -i may have over
looked his hi ironing money fiotn a stats
treasurer; tlmt debt was contracted in hard
times when many olhors were borrowing.
Put I could never overlook 1:1s refusal to
pay bark the money icause the debt had
been outlawed. Ingratitude Is thu baatsU
of sins Ild Hitchcock been a man ,
would have worked his fingers off to pay
ttiat debt. Harll-y saved him from dis
grace and from ruin. Hitchcock with the
start Bartley gave him, got rich and could
have paid every dollar cf that debt and not
Injured his f.irtune. But he refused. Ha
pleaded the a:atu e of IhiilUtkn. Just think
