Sntcliffe Baxter Testifies That Man J Accused Refused $85,00-0 for ) Bankrupt Stock, After Receiver - Took Hold S 1 1,000 Realized, SEATTLE. July 17. Sutcllffe Baxter, 70 years old. a former wholesale liquor dealer who is alleged to have been a favorite of United States Judge Cor nelius H. Hanford in the latter's ap pointment of receivers for Insolvent firms, was on the witness stand be fore the House Judiciary sub-committee most of the day, and when other witnesses were testifying the subjects Inquired into had relation to the Bax ter receiverships. It was brought out on examination that Baxter's son married a daughter of the lata Governor John H. HcGraw, J and the committee asked questions eal j eulated to develop that McGraw had j been Instrumental in having Hanford ; appointed to the bench. Frederick Bausman, attorney for the I Metropolitan Trust Company of New York In the proceedings against the ' insolvent Westim Steel Corporation. 1 testified that he bad requested Judse Hanford to appoint Edgar Ames, of ; Seattle, receiver, as be was known to v the New York creditors. Hsafwi Refuses Keenest. Hanford refused and Bausman sug '. gested Lester Turner., of Seattle, as J receiver. Tbe Judge accepted Tur- ner. according to witness, but said it I would be well to have two receivers, f and named Sutcllffe Baxter as such second receiver. Witness saw no need 'of a second receiver and had not thought of Baxter. J Baxter testified that Judge Hanford (refused an offer of 185.000 for the bankrupt McCarthy dry goods stock, ' and that after Baxter had conducted the store ten months the creditors to ; ceived 111.000. James 8. Goldsmith, manager of a ; large wholesale grocery firm, was , called to testify concerning the meet ' ing held by a commute of the Seattle '. Creditmen'o Association to consider re , form in the manner of appointing Fed ' aral receivers and at which it was de , cldsd not to lay evidence before the ." Congressional committee. No Action Is Creed. Witness testified that he had urged t that the committeetake no action, first 1 because it had been appointed to con t fer with Hanford. not to prosecute him. and, second, because Hanford's t great services to the community en ', titled him to the good will of the mer t chants. , Witness on cross-examination ad : mltted that his firm had been twice Indicted for violation of the Federal pure food law. ' B. S. Grosscup. an attorney of Ta 1 eoma, contradicted the testimony of ' Govnor Teats, also a Tacoma attorney, ' thata Judge Hanford had fallen asleep 4 during trial of a suit in Tacoma. Credltmeo's Head Testifies. Eugene G. Anderson, president of the ' Seattle Credltmen's Association, testl- 5 fled concerning a meeting of a com- mlttee appointed for the purpose of i obtaining co-operation of the Federal i courts and the association in the ap- polntment of capable receivers for ! bankrupt firms, with a view to conser vation of the estates of bankrupts. Wit ness testified that at the meeting an ' attorney appeared and represented that . the House Judiciary subcommittee, ; which had Just arrived in the city, de . aired to obtain from the association all evidence relating to complaints against Tecelvershlps in Judge Hanford's court. . The matter waa then discussed, witness said, and it was decided with on dis senting vote that as the committee had not yet conferred with Judge Hanford concerning the proposed co-operation in receivership matters, it would not be . proper for the committee to lay its com. 1 plaints before the Congressional com ' mlttee. . At the meeting it was said that Inas much as the Congressional investiga tion waa a Socialist movement. It would be unfortunate to have the com mittee dragged into it; that If any . thinsr was done as a result of the com- mlttee's investigation the "Socialists would claim credit for It." Witness said this -was the general sense of the meet ing. Witness denied that is was said that witnesses who should testify roieht suffer injury. Sutcllffe Baxter gave a summary of the result of eight receiverships to which he had been appointed by Judge Hanford. beginning in 1904. Witness testified that he was formerly In-the liauer business, and before that a trad- 1 er among the Indians and manager of ' a company store for a coal company at Belllngham. A COPY OF ONESELF.

JUDGE SCORES HOODLUMS Boys Who Took Auto and Bndan gered Lives Just Miss Rockpile. "No man is his own boss as long as he lives in his mother's house," said Justice of the Peace Olson yesterday when Al Buckley and Earl Shelley were before him to answer for their dis orderly conduct last Saturday when they drove a machine on the Linnton road while drunk, and finally wrecked another automobile. Shelley had taken the machine of his mother, after she had forbidden him, and had picked up two companions. rockpile sentence, and were released unaer BUSyeaaea eenieuue uuiy biloi Judge Olson bad administered to them a scathing rebuke. I have long wished for the oppor tunity to send such hoodlums as you to the rockpile before my term expires," said Justice Olson. "You went out for a good time regardless of the rights and lives of other people, lou are tne kind that would just as readily as not have run Into some of those on tne road and injured or killed them, and then have passed on. You have good homes and have been raised under the best of Influences, and still you persist in making regular hoodlums of your selves. The testimony shows that with Shel- lev and Buckley was riding William Morgan. Shelley was ariving. BUCKiey was in the back seat, where he was be ing supported by Morgan. Driving recklessly along, and swerving to rignt and to left, the car would undoubtedly have run into a crowd of people who were gathered in the middle of the road in front of the Claremont Tavern, about 12:30 in the morning, but Buckley sud denly kicked Shelley in the head, caus ing him to release his hold on the steer ing wheel. The car ran into a machine In which a load or guests trom tne Portland Hotel were being driven by P. L. NeaL When arrested Buckley fought the officers and had to be held down by main force until brought to town. The arrests were made by JJep uty Constable Harrington and Deputy Sheriff Truesdell. TALK WITH LESCHETIZKY His Ideas as to Creation of Real Musical Expression. Woman's Home Companion. . Leschettzky is generally admitted to be the greatest teacher of piano In the world. While mucn ot mis reputation rests on his marvelous ideas of techni que, yet he is perhaps even greater In his teaching ot interpretation. Too many piano teachers and piano students lay so mucn stress on tne teen nlcal side of piano study that they neg lect the study of music. Leschetlzky teaches that the beauty of interpreta tion should be thought of from the very first minute one begins to study. When I was studying with the great master, he pointed out to me the lm portanca of musical expression in the following way. ne caiiea my attention to the fact that one person. lor in stance, may tell you a tale In. such i way that you find little in it that is Interesting, whereas another person may tell you tbe same story in such a manner that you ioiiow every, wora with the keenest attention. The secret of interest lies not only In the story, but very especially in the voice, the tone, the expression in the manner of telling. All this is inter nretatlon. A careless or dull piano stu- dent may play even some exquisite melody in such a way that it -does not attract you at all, whereas an artist's playing of It may bring the tears to your eyes. The difference does not lie in technique, as some people -might suppose, for both performers may have an equal technique; it lies in. what we call. In music interpretation.
