YELLOW DOG
FUI2D
Held By Certain 'New York Banks
r To Secure , BuBir; '. ; ;
M 2 ',;.'C? '
New Tfork,: March 1 -That certain
banks of New York: maintain a secret
"yellow dpi" fund, which is need to
bribe persons in i position to bring new
business to the institutions is expected
to be developed by the grand jury now
investigating thewrecklng of the Car
negie Trust Company. r
It has already been, shown that this
institution, which was looted right and
left by a clique of politician-financiers,
had a "yellow dog" fund that totalled
11.500,000. From this cash was paid
out with a lavish hand to any one who
might be able to throw deposits toward
the concern. Financial officials of big
corporations, executors of big estates
snd persons occupying similar positions
were bribed to turn , cash over to the
Carnegie. . yt r"
- It is expectation that the grand jury
will develop that this ia a genera! prac
tice with certain financial institutions
now doing basinets in this city. Already
it ia intimated that the developments
will compel a legislative investigation
which will expose rotten' banking con
ditions iq this State: rivalling those un
covered when, the big life insurance
companies were probed. -
Former officials of the Carnegie and
i he ' Northern Banks, incensed over
what they allege to be an attempt to
make them sea; e-goata, have informed
District Attorney Whitman that they
will tell the grand jury exactly how
banking is conducted in New York.
They have already cited names and fig
ures and shown that tnere was a regu
lar scale of commissions paid out for
obtaining deposits. - - .
Middlemen and principals were dealt
with by. certain banksdand there waa
a general understanding . regarding
rates to be paid so that there waa no
securing a monopoly by .any institu
tlon. ' I . - ... ;ri:
The grand jury has discovered that
15.000 of the Carnegie Trust cash wss
paid to have its former president, the
late C C. Dicklnrori, elected a trustee
f Cornell University and that this
money was promptly charged against
the "yellow dog" fund, thh existence
of which, for soma reason seems to
hsve been unknown to the examiners

Drastic Action by Postmaater Gen
eral in Railway Mail ?t ;
v-i.-r 'i DevelopmenW '
Washington, April 1. Drastic action
was taken yesterday by PostmasterQen
eral Hitchcock in effecting a re-orgeniza
tion of the railway mail service. A doz
en of changes of the most important of
fices in the service were made by 'Mr.
Hitchcock as a result of a long and
careful investigation and thorough con
sideration. '. ' : ": .; ; ' ' . . CrjX '
The most important-change ia that of
Theodore Ingalis, of Kentucky, super
intendent of the division of rural malls
who was appointed general superintend
ent of the railway mail serviee in suc
cession to Alexander Grant, who was
promoted to St. Paul, Minn., as a di
vision superintendent. Other changes
are divisional,. '
The affairs of the railway mail serv
ice wf re overhauled thoroughly by Mr.
Hitchcock personally and the outcome
is the most sweeping change evet made
in the history of the railway maii serv
ice. . , '.4;':i
While signing- the necessary orders
for the changes, Mr. Hitchcock said:
"The railway mail service has suf
fered greatly from peor management
and lack of supervision ... In certain of
the divisions it was found that the chief
clerks had not been inspecting their
lines as was their duty. Some of the
routes had received no inspection, for
several years. Instructions from the
Department directing improvements as
for example the proper consolidation
of mail matter and the conservation of
equipment received only perfunctory at
ten tion. There has been a lack of co
operation also in carrying into effect
certain reforms which I had indicated
and it was made evident by the inquiry
that no proper, spirit of co-ordination

Magnificeut Ceremonies For India's
Emperor And Consort. No
', Expense Spared.
London, Apti' 8. That a million ster
lings is to toe spent on the coronation
Durbar in India gives an idea of the r
magnificent character of the ceremonies
that are being arranged and the gorge-
ousness of the scenes in which the King
and Queen will be the central figures at ':
Delhi. Everything Is to be done on a
scale of unexampled splendor as befits
the first visit of a King-Emperor and
his consort to the vast territory over ,
which they reign. ; ' .,.':.
Although the date of the Durbar is
not yet officially announced, there is no
doubt that it will be on December 12.
this year. The first intention was to.
have it in January next, but thr.t was
abandoned because of the night climax
in Delhi in that month and possibility of
rain. The data of December 12 has the
advantage of falling before the com
mencement of the great Mobammeda
fast of Mohurrunu It was also intended
it first that the ceremony should take
place in the fort at Delhi, but that pro
posal was quickly abandoned. His Ma
jesty deciding that the same site should
be ased as in 1877 and 1903.
A gigantic amphitheatre will be con
structed for the ceremony. The decor-
stions will be on a lavish scale and the
actual service will include the placing
of their crowns on their own beads by
the King and Queen. ; Nothing of the
kind has been seen since Napolen the
Great placed upon his heed the iron
crown of , Lombardy. A considerable
portion of the royal regalia will be con
veyed to India, including both crowns
