Tho .State of New York was about three fourths represented In tho IIouso of representatives yesterday and prob- ably will continue to be represented to that extent until some legislation, for the enactment of which tho busi- ness Interests of tho country have nent out a Macedonian cry, la out of the way. Kcprescntatl ves of the State of Now ) York played Quito a prominent part In the piococdlnss of yesterday when a salng of about $300,000 recom- mended by the on c, executive and judicial esti- mates of tho .ppro-uiatlon- s Commit- tee was expeditiously wiped out and icplaced by provision for an expendl-t'n- c of 1752,000, with a definite prob-inlli- ty that tho total will run to $900,000 and $1,000,000 beforo the chance from saving to upending on this particular item Is completely ..ccompllshed. This article, might well be entitled How It Is Done.\ To convey under standing to tho reader It Is necessary t so bock a couple of weeks. Tho Department of Commerce, when t submitted Its estimates for next e&r. asked for $12,778,000. Included in this was tho sum of $1,662,000 for the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Conimeroe, of which $337,000 was for salaries, $800,000 for promoting com- merce, $300,000 for commercial at- taches and $225,000 for expenses In P' omotlng commerce. SLASHED WITH RUTHLESS HAND. The of which Mr. Wood of Indiana is chairman and Mr, SlBson of Mississippi is the Demo- cratic member, went through the esti- mate of the Department of Commerce like . tornado through a forest. It was especially destructive In tho Bu- reau of Foreign and Domestic Com- merce. In tba first place It throw out the estimate for 11,662.000; refused to consider It at all. It took the appro- priation for the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce for this year ($000,040) as a working basis, and after exhaustive examinations and In- vestigations cut it down to $180,000. In other words tho obeying the necessity for rigid econ- omy, allowed tho Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce $480,000 for next year, a saving of $130,000 direct and ot about $70,000 from Indirect uoorceo. To do this the prac- tically wiped out the commercial at- taches and commercial agents of tho Bureau abroad and all tho machinery abroad and at homo, with an appar- ent saving of $500,000 toward tho $3,500,000,000 which must bo saved if the deficit of tho country Is not to grow. The reported to the House two weeks ago. The explanation for doing away with the machinery of the For- eign and Domestic Bureau abroad was that the State Department, throuoh its consular officers, looks after the interests of Amer- ican business in every part of the world, and the work of the agents of the Department of Commerce, who have grown in number and in salary drawinn ability with ICtfillmigl on rutetnlli P Mttd t DETECTIVE GUNSON INDICTED; CHARGE 0F1IBERY IDE, Accused of Taking 5,000 From Woman and Shielding Her Bench Warrant Issued. John J. Gunson, a dtectlvo on the staff of Inspector Henry of the Fourth District, was Indicted to-d- on charges of extortion anil bribery. Judgo Mulono of General Sessions Issued a bench warrant for his arrest. The indictment was found after the Grand Jury had listened to tho story by Ilebccca Melyado, Stella Young and Hose Gonzales, better known as f panlsh Rose.\ Tho women, testified under sub- poenas issued by District Attorney Htrnnn on evidence obtained by As- sistant District Attorney Jamos K. Smith, who has been at work on tho case for sonic months. Tho Melyado woman said she has known Gunson for three years, and that during that ttrao she had lived with him In an apartment in Went 90th Street, and hart igtven him vari- ous sums of money, amounting in ail to approximately $3,000, besides suits of clothing and iprescnts of different sorts. iSho also declared sho had acted as \rounder-up- \ of women of tho under world who had failed to jneet tho demands tnado upon them by tho police detectives. The Indictment charges Gunson with having received from tho Mel- yado woman $30 In Oct. lo, 1317, whllo In their apartment. Stolla Young is alleged to havo Ibeon pres- ent at tho time tho imonoy was passed. Sho was summoned as a corroborating witness. Ttdbocca 'Melyado said Gunson \and other detectives on Inspector (Henry's staff' had hounded women of tho streets who attempted to reform and get jobs. She declared that once nho had broken away from Gunson and had obtalnod work as a hairdresser, but that Gunson found her and forced her to return. Sho added that?1 she was in tho habit of mooting tho da tectivo each night In a restaurant in West Cist tttroot and there \Hplitting fifty-fift- y\ wih htm the money nhe had received. Rosa Gonzales told the Grand Jury sho had been arrested ten times in tho last two years and that each tlrao sho had boon told by detectives that if sho would engage a certain lawyer, tho arresting officer would change his testimony so that the Magistrate In the Night Court wquld havo to discharge her. She showed to the Orand Jirry ten certificates ot dis- charge from tho Night Court in tlio period sho mentioned, m each case, sho asserted, she had paid from $300 to $500 to the same lawyer. I'olico Commisloner Hnright ro- - ccntly cleared Gunson of charges brought against hun In connection with the arrest and subsequent dls- - ohargo of two young women.

But Wet Forces Insist Upon Inquiry to Begin in Two Weeks. ' : ALBANY, N. Y.. March 3. Develop- ments which may stave off the pfbe of the Anti-Saloo- n League appeared y. After examining the legislative law, tho leaders, headed by Speaker Sweet, concluded a concurrent resolution i would be necessary to furnish tnc finances for tho Judiciary Comml'tec. Should tho Senate refuse to concur In the appropriation, tho Assembly would be powerless to furnish the money. To offset this supporters of the ' probe are seeking somo way In which to conduct It whereby no expenditures Would be required, 'but no definite! plan has been evolved. It developed to-d- that the In- - vcstlgatlon cannot begin for two wooks. The Senate y refused to Join the Assembly in Its probe, when a resolution by Senator Cotlllo to this effect was sent to tho Judiciary Com-- 1 ' mittec. Cotillo called for a slow roll call In an endeavor to oss tho rcso- - lution, but was defeated 16 to 13. Cotiilo's resolution called for tho ' Senate Judiciary Committee to jolnj Immediately with the similar As-- 1 sembly Committee In its investigation of the Anti-Saloo- n Lcaguo, which he characterised as undemocratic, hypo- critical and autcmtlc in Its methods. Tho majority and minority leaders expressed opposition to tho adoption of tho measure, primarily on the ground that the Senate investigation would be unnccensary in view of the fact that the Ansemblyapparently In- tended to igo oJhoad with tho investi- gation. During tho courao of dobn-t- on the resolution, Senator Kaplan announced he Is preparing n local option bill, which will havo for its main purpose conferring on various municipalities tho power to determine what consti- tutes an intoxicating beverage. Tho Judiciary Comralttco met In oxocutlvo session to-d- to examine tho evidonco In tho possession of As- semblyman Louis Cuvllller, o mem ber of the committee, and to fix the date for beginning the investigation Into tho funds and political activities of tho Anti-Salo- Leaguo and Will- - j lam H. Anderson, Ita State Supcrin- - tendent Tho committee also will decide what counsel win represent it, nnd whether tho League will bo allowed legal representation. It Is believed the Attorney General's office win bo called on to furnish legal assistance to tho committee, and that if the League Is allowed counsel tho organization will select Robert G. Davey, Its counsel. The commlttoo will probably meet later this week to draw up tho proce- dure to be followed in tho Investiga- tion. MARY PICKFORD DIVORCED.
