He argues vehemently for an act pro-
hibiting any white person from teachingnegro children In u school or elsewhere,and an act which would disband negrosecret societies.
Ho would have a law requiring news-paper- s
which havo published Injuriouserroneous statements concerning per-

He would havo the Legislature forbid smoking in restaurant visited bywomen, and on this ,,i, he sajs.
'I regret exceedingly to know thatto-d- people in South Carolina (I willnot say gentlemen, nor will I say truuimen), hit In our public dining rooms, res- -taurants and cafe, and smoke cigar andfoul Utile cigarette, and whiff and puffund blow the smoke out through their nos-
trils, nnd this smoke Is carried eitherth natural' breeze or the current ofelectric fan Into the eyes, mouths nnd
nostrils of refined women. It makes moahhamed for my State.')
Mentlop'ng recent act of Congress,which ho say are in violation of Statu'rights, he Mays: "I notice on llxing datesfor hunting purposes within the border

HOSPITALS MUST PROVE
VALUE TO GET MONEY
Saturday and Sunday Associa-
tion Amends Utiles forlis Distribution.
The Hospital Saturday and Sundaywhich raises and distributes
funds, to forty-seve- n lion,pltals of the city, has adopted threo Im-
portant amendment which will raise thestandard of prlvato hospitals nhd Improvethe basis for dhdributlni: the association'sfunds. Tho chaiiBes were madu unani-mously at tho annual nieetlr.it held yester-day and attended by representative, ofthe Institutions.
The tlrst amendment provides that "nohospltul snail hereafter be 'admitted tomembership unless It Is duly Incorporated,lu's had for at least three jears not less,than thirty-fiv- e beds In Its wards and hasgiven during the same period not less thanlive thousand days of free service peryear. Any hospital falling below thenuallflrutlon reuulred for admission atthe time of It election to membership shallforthwith forfi It Its meniberhlp and allrights to participate In the funds dis-tributed by the association."
The distributing committee must ion-sld- tr
not only this point, but also the costof treatment, which varlis In different hos-pitals according to tho nature of Its work,from (" and t'i a day to TS rents. Thuthird amendment takes Into considerationtho iiiallty of the si n ice It providesthat If a hospital Is graded by the StateHoard of Charities in Clns 3 (thirdgrade) as to mamiKement the appropria-tion which It would ngidarly recilve maybe reduced by 50 ln-- r cent, the first yearund withheld entirely If It should con-tinue In thu same grade. Hitherto thedistribution has been according to theamount of free days service only.
Fnderlck D. ilreene, teneral secretary,said yesterday that the new scheme willi liable the belt hospitals to do thu mostwork, although there will be no discrim-ination against smaller hospitals becauseof limitation of their plants.
"In thu case of a huge number of hos-pitals," Mr. lireenu said, "the public hasno means of deciding whether to give orlidl to give. Tlie giver Is perplexed by theappeals and the lack of any way of tellingwhich are win thy ami which unworthyThu new plan guarantees Jut thli pointIt has n Impractical, although proposedfor many year, because we had no full,accurate and uniform data from hospitals.We now have a method of getting this.The hospitals doing thu more serious wurkwill get thu larger share and thu othersunder less expente will level vu a smallershare."
Mr. lireenu believes thnt the new ar-rangement of distribution and higherstandard of hoMdt.ils will cau".e a great
'dial more to be done for Mich Institutions. He pointed out that in London the

Not Utility Onffney Caelie fore Grand Jury.
Arthur A. McLean, trcasuicr of thoDemocratic State committee, pleadedguilty yesterday In the Criminal ltranchof the Supieme. C6urt to an Indictmentcharging him with having accepted a cam-
paign contribution from n corporation.Sentence was suspended by Justlru VernonM. Davis nfter District Attorney Whit- - ,
man had declared that the exaction of thefull penalty would be. an Injustice In thisparticular case.
Within nn hour after Mr. McLean,by his counsel, Mor-
gan J. U'ltrlen and John V. Htanchtl'lri,hud left the court room. Ilvc.rett run lex.accompanied by Martin W. Littleton, ap-
peared and pleaded not guilty to an Indict-
ment chnrglng him with extorting a cam-
paign contribution. lie had alreadypb aden not guilty to nn Indictment charg-ing that he unlawfully solicited the contri-bution fur the acceptance of which Ale.
was Indicted.Fowler had hardly left th-- Criminal
Court HullJIni: after having his hailbond renewed tliuii the Grand Jury whichIndicted htm and AlcL.au resumed Its In-
quiry Into the awarding of contracts fortho miueduct, a subject which Is being In-
vestigated along with tlie State highwaycontract and campaign contribution scan-dal.
llanarer Hr peats Uane- - Story.Harry B. Hanger of tho firm of Alason
A Hanger, u Kentucky corporation, wasthu witness. He was asked to review testi-mony given by him at Nyack lat Septem-ber, when he swore that he paid $30,000 toJames K. Gattney for advice as to how tosucceed in getting a contruct for whichtho Masnn A Hanger concern was thulowest bidder.
It Is understood that Hanger directedhis prtvlou testimony yesterday to theextent of shortening the time between hispayment of $3o,0u0 and the award of thecontract.
The Jndictment agalimt Mclan wasfiled on December 4. It was based ehletlyon the testimony of Harold V. Owens ofI tlca, the !estetary and treasurer of theDale L'nglneerlng Company, a New Yorkcorporation, which In 1912 find Statehighway contracts aggregating 1250,000.
Oweus testified thut In October of thatyear h went to Syracuse at the sugges-tion of State Senator T. Harvey Ferrisand there. In company with other contrac-tors. met Kverett Fowler. He said hewas called Into an office and that Fowlertold him h exacted a campaign contri-bution of ll.OoO. Uwecs refused to glviithat much, and tlnally beat Fowler downto M00. He gave Fowler a check for thatamount und at hit direction made It paya-ble to Arthur A. McLean.
Indorsed la .McLean's HaadwrltlaK.Th check showed that It bad been In-
dorsed by MjImii In his on handwritingand not by rubber stamp, as were manyof those which he received from highwaycontractors.
The acceptance of a campaign contribu-tion from a corporation is a violation ofsection it of the geniral corjioratlonlaw. By the same, law It Is aliomad a misdemeanor to solicit the con-tribution of a corporation. The penaltyfor this crime I u year In prisonor a lino of 1.000. or both.
.Mr. Littleton (.aid that McLean's pleawould not affect Fowler's case in the least.Thu superceding Indictment for extor-tion, to which Fowler pleadud not guiltyywterday, can be demurred to by .Mr.Littleton on the ground of lack of Juris-diction. In the event thu demurrer Is sus-tained by Justice Davis the District At-torney may then appeal to the AppellateDivision, nnd in the event of his uiine.ilbeing sueo-i-fi- il .Mr. Littleton could Inturn take the cat.e to the Court nf Appeals,In these possibilities as outlined bv boihsldi i there Is an Intimation thut the ipies-- 1
tlou of Jurisdiction in Fowl-i-- 'h ease wiltnot be settled for at least a year.
Points to McLean's nood Record.In asking leave to withdraw his client'
previous plea of not guilty Mr: Stanch-flul- d
told Justice Davis he understoodthat the second indictment against Mc-Lean would be dismissed. He pointedout that Mr. Mclean wa upwards of sixtyyears old : that ho had been a resilientof Newburgh nearly all hi life, and thatdur.ng tho thirty years he hud been Inbusiness thero his character had neverbeen questioned. One of MrLchu'H sonsI a physician In New York, another Is uuarmy oltlcer and u third I ut WestI'oluL
.Mr. Stnnchtleld then read several letterssetting forth the reputnbllity of hi client.One wn from Charles F. Brown, formerlyit Justice of the Court of Appeals; iuiothetwas from Judge Hlrschbvrg of tho Appe-llate Division. The other letters wi re fromAtayor John IU Corwln of Nowliurgh,Frederick W. Wilson and President Col-we- ll
of the Col well Lawn Mower Manufac-turing Company.
Mr. Whitman, In Hddreaslng the- cmirr,pointed out thu prevalence of thu customof soliciting, making and receiving cam-paign contributions from corporations, anddeclared that It was more than sslblethut McLfHii was not aware of thugravity of hi offence.
"Of course," ho .continued, "the funda-mental purpose of a prosecution of thisIclnd Is tho destruction of a system whichhas become more or less firmly estab-lished, contrary to law, and to preventthe repetition of the acts complained of.1 believe that tho purpose Is accomplishedIn the conviction of this defendant.
'These Indictments are the first to beround In this Htato, so far as I am In-formed, In the effort to secure th enforce-ment of this statute, and I believe thatthis conviction will prevent Its violationin tne tuture.
C'ash Is Accounted For.Air. Whitman having told tho court
that he did not bulleva thut AtcLean hadprofited In any way from tho system ofcampalng collecting, Mr, Stanchtleld wasasked what became of tho thousands ofdollars that McLean received, but whichwere not accounted for In tho statementwhich McLean filed with the Secretary ofbiate. Air. aiancrmeiu sain it would befound that while theno contributions werenot credited In McLean'H reports to thecontractors who made them, they werorecorded und accounted for In otherwuys.
Hurry U. Hanger explained to theGrand Jury tho situation which resultedIn his payment of (30,000 to James K.Gaftney. Ho said his firm had bid
for contract No. 20. The nextlowest bidder was that of the BradlnyContracting Company, this bid beingonly 14,679 higher than that of Mason &Hunger. Gaffney was then In businesswith Bradley, tsMng a member of theBradley-UatTney-Ste- er Company.
Hanger testified at Nyack last September that he gave Guffney tho $30,000 incash, In two paymenrs. The contract was
j awarded...
In June and the. payments werewvum w iwiu
