prter A deduction of 6 per cent by the
fo-. gn buyer from the gross weight of

! That s ten l of eight pounds on each

p!!atod by the fact that when the cotton

exporter has the right to demand an
actual test for tare In this tare the

(Associate! Press Kefort.)
SKAGIRT. N. J. September 6. Gov-
ernor Wilson intimated tonight that he
probably would take part in the sena-
torial right In New Jersey in which for-
mer United States Senator James Smith.
Jr. is again a candidate. Two years ago
he spoke throughout the State in oppo-
sition to Mr. Smith.
Judge John K. Westcott. who nom-
inated Mr. Wilson at the Baltimore con-
vention and is now a candidate for
I'mted States senator called today at
the summer capltol Governor Wilson
declared tonight that he Understood Judge
Westcott would remain in the senatorial
fight. Similar word comes irorp Repre-
sentative William Hughes and State Sen-
ator Gebhart who also are candidates
for United States senator.
The presidential nominee will meet
National Chairman William V. McCom ba-
in New York city Monday for the nrst
time since the latter weni to the Adiron-
dack to recuperate from his illness.

when he will begin his trip to Sioux City
Iowa. Minneapolis. St Paul. Milwaukee
Columbus aud Pittsburg. He said he
would speak at Cleveland Ohio in Oc-
tober. With the coming of colder weather
fewer seashore folk have been coming to
the summer capital and as a consequence
the governor thought today that the back
porcn would not be a conspicuous spot
to have his hair cut. While Sam Gordon
his negro attendant was clipping away
however a crowd began to gather. They
sat on the rail fence until the govern-
or's secretary came to the rescue and dis-
lersed the curious.

I United States Senator Thomas P. Gore of
I Oklahoma arrived here tonight to speak
i at the concluding rally of the democratic
State campaign at Augusta tomorrow
; night.
Hoth democratic and republican lead-
ers issued statements tonight predicting
success at the polls Monday. The pro-
gressive party has not entered the State
I campaign at a separate organization but
' the struggle between the democrats and
1 the republicans for the control which

PROBE OF NEW YORK
POLICE GRAFT IS ON
(Continued from Page One.)
that the raids your men made were for
the purpose of graft. Keep your men
out of disorderly houses and In future
If you get a letter or complaint bring it
to me before you make a raid and make
raids only on my approval." "
The witness described hla conversation
with Waldo on August s aa follows:
Threatened to Fire Him.
"When 1 came into the commissioner's
presence he said: Hayes what are you
doing about the disorderly house In your
district'' I replied 'Nothing. "Wliy':'
he asked. 'Because you told me not to'
I replied. 'I'll fire you right now If you
say that' said the commlslsoner making
a threatening motion with his hands."
"Did he fire you?" "Not that day'
replied the witness.
On August 15 the commissioner sent
him a letter ordering him to suppress dis-
orderly houses In his district which he
said was the first letter of Its kind he
had received from the commissioner.
Every material statement Hayes made
each previously put in the form of ft ques-
tion by Mr. Thatcher waa denied by Mr.
Waldo who preceded the police officer on
the stand.
"I never gave Hayes any orders other
than general Instructions to observe peace
and good order and enforce the laws"
Mr. Waldo said.
The trial will go on tomorrow whe'O
Hayes will be cross-examined.
Mayor Qaynor's Attitude.
For nearly an hour Thomas Thatcher
Hayes' counsel sought to read Into the
record the mayor's speeches and utter-
ances on the vice problem. Thwarted In
his efforts by Torrence Farley assistant
corporation attorney the lawyer finally
gained recognition from the trial com-
missioner Douglas I. Mackay by this
declaration:
"I am merely trying to prove that
Mayor Oaynor'a attitude was one under
which the social evil was recognized as
an unconquerable problejn which had to
be endured but that the evil had to pre-
sent a front of outward decencry; that In
the failure of Inspector Hayes to raid
disorderly houses he was merely reflect-
ing this policy and that any orders Issued
to him by Police Commissioner Waldo
were directly In violation of that poller."
Mr. Thatcher was than permitted to

proceed with his cross-examination along
the lines he desired.
"Does not Mayor Oaynor direct your
policy toward vice?" he asked.
"He does not" snapped the commis-
sioner. "As a matter of fact you did not expect
Hayes to raid disorderly houses within
his district now did you?"
"I expected him to raid every disorderly
house as to whose operations he could ob-
tain evidence."
"You knew didn't you that disorderly
houses had flourished for six months In
Inspector Hayes.' district; that these
houses were operating every day and
that they were not being raided?"
"Yea 1 knew It; I knew that disorderly
houses had been flourishing In that dis-
trict for a year. But I presumed that
Inspector Hayes was making every effort
he could to close them up."
Commissioner Waldo was a refractory
witness. His replies were long and
couched In general terms and he had
frequent encounters with Mr. Thatcher.
