May Irwin, the actress! has offered to furnish bail in any amount up to $50,000 for the release of Nan Patterson from the Tombs prison, where she is now held charged with the murder of Caesar Young, according to an announcement made by Miss Patterson's counsel. Miss Irwin called personally at the Tombs prison today, and left .a letter addressed to the former show girl, and the announcement followed a few min utes after Miss Irwin went away. When District Attorney Jerome's at tention was called to the offer of bail, he said he had no statement to make, and was not prepared to say what course the prosecution would take.

I was as much interested in the return of Mr. Depew as if I myself had been the candidate." "When asked what effect the return of Senator1 Depew would have on the organi zation. Senator Piatt -said: "I don't see that it will have any par ticular effect." "Your friends are saying that you now will resume active leadership of the or ganization," it was suggested. "It is useless to discuss a matter of that character at this time," said the Senator. "Do you expect to confer with Governor Odell on organization matters?" "I don't know what I should confer with him about," said Mr. Piatt. "I may see him. I suppose he will send for me. I expect to see Speaker Nixon before the organization of the .Legislature." "Will you have any recommendations with reference to committee places?" he was asked. "I am always Interested in good govern ment. I've a little list of recommendations that I shall make to Mr. Nixon and to the Governor." Senator Depew and Louis Payn called at the office of Senator Piatt today and the three had a private conference, it is supposed over the result of the Senatorial contest. Mr. Payn has been represented to be a stanch supporter of ex-Governor Black's candidacy, but after the confer ence he said: "I am glad to see Senator Depew win out and I have congratulated him and told Senator Piatt that it was all right. Senator Piatt and I have been friends for 40 years. I have been advising Governor Black for six months that It would be bad policy for him to enter the race and nog lect his business. I never believed that he would make the race. Everybody Is satis fled and harmony prevails in the party." Deny the Judge's Authority. DENVER, Colo., Dec 30. A Republican special from' Santa Fe, N. M., says that attorneys today refused to proceed with cases before Justice Baker, claiming that he had no right to sit as judge of the Territorial Court, although the order re moving him recently was revoked by President Roosevelt. The attorneys base their action on Federal decisions which, they say, hold that an order revoking the removal of a United States appointive officer does not reinstate him, but that he must be again nominated by the Presi dent and confirmed by Congress in regular form. This was not done in the case of Judge Baker. Truce in Delaware Wrangle. DOVER, Del., Dec 30.

An agreement in the dispute over officers was reached by the Union (Addicks) Re publicans conceding to the Regulars one half the offices of the Legislature with an understanding that those selected would seri'e only In the extra session. How to Fix Tariff Rate on Sugar. NEW YORK. Dec 30. The quality of sugar for tariff purposes must be deter mined by the scientific polariscope test, according to a decision today by the United States Federal appraisers. The de cision was given on a protest filed by Im porters against a recent ruling of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. The protest declared that the regulations upon which the decision of the Circuit Court was based are iinconstitutionnl. In overruling the protest, the board holds that the phrases, "testing by the polari scope," and "decree shown by the polari scope," as used In the tariff act should bo Interpreted literally. The protestants contended that the so-called trade test or commercial test would have been suf ficient under the regulations. The largest sugar Importers In the country are In terested in the settlement of the question and it probably will be taken to the United States Supreme Court for final decision. The amount involved in the case already has reached many millions of dollars. Mob Awaits Bank-Wrecker.

BOSTON, Mass., Dec 30. (Special.) A rumor has been currept here to day that Thomas W. Lawson's purpose In going to Newark, N. J., last night was to apply for a receivership for the Amalgamated Copper Company. He wired his private secretary that he would answer the stories of the Standard Oil-Amalgamated-City Bank crowds buying him off and winding- up his "frenzied finance" articles with' a statement In a few hours. He also de clared in this telegram, given out to the press later, that the next Amal gamated dividend would be Increased. Publisher Barren, of the Boston News Bureau, declares that Lawson is "lak Ing" and hasn't been out of the city, but on the contrary, is here and doing business at the old stand, but carefully hidden away from the public Mr. Ridgway. of Everybody's Maga zine, emphatically denies the sale of that publication or the withdrawal of Lawson's articles. BANDITS ABE SUPREME. France Still Negotiating for Safety of Foreigners In Morocco. PARIS. Dec. 30. The measures contem plated by the French government for the security of the neighborhood of the towns in Morocco have not yet been completed, partly owing to the fact that there has not yet been the time necessary for the purpose since France first undertook the task, and partly because many matters of detail remain to be settled when the French representative, M. Saint Rebe Taillander. meets the Sultan at Fez at the end of this month. Oriental dllatori ness also counts for something in the delay. There are already 500 French native troops at Tangier, under Captain Four nler and Lieutenant Seuqira, and there is another French native contingent of 25 men at Rabat. M. Saint Rene Tall lander, who was appointed two years ago, has not yet beon to Fez. He will remain there two or three months, and will ex plain to the Sultan the necessity of tak ing special measures for the security of the neighborhood of the towns and the development of the Moroccan military and police forces. He will doubtless en deavor to come to an agreement with the Sultan on all essential measures for the public safety that can be carried out without regular military operations. Meanwhle the lawless element was much excited by the turn taken by tne Perdicarls Incident, and it would appear that the recent trouble Is due to that circumstances as much as to the unavoid able delay in the adoption of fresh meas ures for maintaining order by the French authorities. Brigands Return for More. NEWr YORK, Dec 30. The town ol Al cazar Is again menaced, by a large num ber of mountaineers belonging to the Ka byles tribe, according td a Herald dis patch from Tangier. They are the same tribesmen who recently besieged the town in consequence of a dispute between a Moor and a Spaniard. The money then paid has merely aroused their greed, and they now demand a much larger sum. The town la not well prepared for de fense. Sultan Yielding to France. PARIS, Dec. 31. According to a dis patch from Tangier to the Figaro, the Sultan of Morocco has received M. Guil lard, the French Vice-Consul at Fez, and informed him that the dismissal of the French military mission had been cancelled. At the same time the Sultan urged that the diplomatic mis sion of M. St, Rene Tallandlei (the French Minister to Morocco) start at once for Fez. IRELAND TO GROW TOBACCO. Government Removes Embargo, and Experiment Is Success. DUBLIN, Dec 30. A new era has Just opened for Ireland. Not only will she be a manufacturer of tobacco, but she appeurs likely, after many experi ments which have not proved alto gether successful, to be able to grow a good leaf of her .own. From the lands of Colonel Nugent Everard, at Rundulstown, County Meath, i) acres of tobacco have been safely harvested, and Professor J. N. Harper, of Kentucky University, the famous American tobacco expert, de scribes It as "a tobacco crop of the highest quality, quite equal to that grown In Virginia and Kentucky." Professor Harper also pronounces the Irish climate to be almost perfectly suited for tobacco culture Colonel Everard has been supported "by the Irish Department of Agricul ture, and this is the first experiment in producing a tobacco crop in Ire land on a commercial and practical scale. The Department of Agriculture agreed to assist any one who would experiment with tobacco culture to the extent of ten acres by bearing the cost of the drying- and curing , plant. Colonel Everard agreed to lay down 20 acres. The best procurable seed was brought from Virginia and planted early in the Spring-, and since Sep tember the process of curing, sorting and drying has given employment to a number of local hands. The 20 acres nave yielded about 14.000 pounds weight of leaf. This is a re markable result for what Is practically an initial experiment; it Is estimated, however, that the average yield per acre will be about 1000 pounds of to bacco. Dublin manufacturers and ex perts have valued the samples already grown as high as 7d and 8d per pound for the best leaves. The government has removed the prohibition against tobacco culture, and undertaken to refund the grower one third of the duty levied. The conces sion, however, is limited to five years, anJ it Is impossibe to expect farmers to undertake the heavy Initial cost for this limited oeriod. STILL CRY FOR LIBERTY.

Criminals Use Motor-Car, but Are Caught With Plunder PARIS, Dec. SO. The latest form' of house robbery In Paris Is burglary oy motor car. The concierge of a fine block of flats'ln the Avenue Makaloff was standing at the front door this week, when a large motor car drove up, containing three young pas try cooks assistants and the driver, whoso face was masked by a pair of huge gog gles. They asked the concierge to di rect them to the fiat of M. Merino, and assuming that the tenant named was about to give a dinner party, the con cierge directed them to the third floor. Presently a well-dressed man carrying a leather bag came up, and, telling the concierge that he had come about the menu cards, passed up to the same flat. The driver of the motor car, after wait ing a few minutes, decided that he would" go and give his comrades a lift with their work, and asked the concierge to keep an eye on the car. The obliging janitor did so, and to such good effect that he saw In the bottom of the vehicle a collection of suspicious looking Instruments, Including- electric batteries, skeleton keys, -jimmies and saws. He spoke to a passing poHceman", who at once procured 'assistance, and waited for the return of the party. The well-dressed man was the first to appear, carrying his bag, which, was" muchf-awol-len in dimensions. . He was. promptly seized by the police, as were also the .
