Ecker, "were it possible for us to express to you tonight- our greetings in the most appropriate fashion by saying just the right things in just the right way, we realize that the spoken word would pass away, and we would, therefore, like to leave with you to-night a token of this action. You are asked to accept this gift from all your people, using it in whatever way you may choose; may It serve to remind you of the loyalty, the devotion and the love of your people." Loud applause and waving of handkerchiefs greeted Dr. Carson as he stepped to the front of the pulpit. It was fully a minute before he was permitted to speak. "I know that you don't expect me to make an address to you to-night.

I wish that I could, and yet, If I could, I wish that. I might be some other sort of a man than a man would be who could make a speech on such an occasion as this." Holding up the sealed envelope Dr. Carson said: "I don't know what is In that. I don't care what Is In it. My friends, it Is not necessary that you should put anything in my hands to-night to express your love.

At the same time Commissioner Fosdick Is at work following out leads suggested by residents of the borough, and there is anxiety on the part of the office holders, past and present, who may be hit. and also interest on the part of those who desire a cleaning up of the borough.

To the tourist, traveling for pleasure, or the family, the slower train, with the same comforts and conveniences of first-class railway travel, appeals. The Pennsylvania Railroad trains between New York and the western cities accommodate all classes. The busy man uses the "Pennsylvania Special" to and from Chicago because its schedule does not interfere with office work. To St.

Louis he uses "The 24-Hour St. Louis" because it is fast and reliable." The less strenuous traveler, and the family party, will take "The Pennsylvania Limited," the world's standard passenger train, or the "New York and St. Louis Limited," which are just as luxuriously appointed and provide all the comforts and conveniences of home or hotel. There are also express trains on fast schedules with sleeping cars, dining cars and coaches, between New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati and Cleveland, which leave at convenient hours and provide high grade accommodations.

Yesterday a clever explanation was given out at Borough Hall. It was said that a clerk In the office of former Secretary John M. Cragen had charge of this stamp matter.

He was so rushed with other work that he did not want to take time to make out a separate voucher for every five dollars' worth of stamps that' were purchased, so he held the Jo vouchers until their numbers aggregated ten, and then he raised the tenth one and sent that vouncher through, withholding the other nine. As Commissioner Fosdick has found that the changed vouchers appear twenty-one times, this would make a total of 210 stamp purchases. Whether or not Postmaster George Rlpperger has a record in his office ot that many purchases It was impossible to learn. The Grand Jury will begin worlj again on Monday and then it is expected an Investigation of this latest report of Commissioner Fosdick will be made. Witnesses have been summoned who would probably know something about the matter.

Judge Cragen. who was mentioned In the report of Commissioner Fosdick. has told his friends that he proposes to make a most vigorous fight to 'Jhow that the Implications by the commissioner are without foundation and that he had nothing to do with any mismanagement of the he influence of Dr. Carson in bringing ibout.

Balked in all these endeavors. Burke next turned to Special Agent Howland In Purls. He also aebled to Europe to the officials of the French Line for facts that would furnish new clues. All these attempts were frustrated by one thing or another. Burke complained bitterly that the surveyor and his assistants seemed Inclined to thwart him rather than aid him.

Finally Burke undertook the seemingly hopeless task of going through the business district in New York City where dressmaking goods are sold in the chance hope of stumbling on the owner of the trunk. He went down one street and up another, examining the signs on the He studied the business directories. After three weeks of search he finally saw a sign bearing the name of a firm of dealers in dressmakers' Bupplles. Some more Sherlock Holmes work convinced him that the owner of the trunk was a member of this firm. Burke communicated his evidence to the surveyor's office, but he declares that it was received as unimportant.

He asserts that no effort was made to find out how the trunk happened to have the 182826 Burke label on it.

For some thirteen years Burke had been employed In the customs service. Prior to the incident which brought his services to a sudden end he was employed as a baggae Inspector on the dock at the New York Customs House. On August 31, 907, Burke was examining the pile of trunks, bags' and valises that had just been unloaded from the French steamer, La Lorraine.

Acting Deputy Surveyor Raszckiewieii called to Burke as the latter was passing, and, pointing to a trunk, asked if he had examined It.
