Rev. Dr. Carter's Felicitations. Editor Brooklyn Dally Eagle: Congratulations on the 85th anniversary of The Eagle and still heartier congratulations on the wonderful Anniversary Edition of yesterday. It is a fine example of the printer's art and also a veritable mine of history, into which I have eagerly delved.

The Engle is one of the "blessed anomalies" of modern newspapers: It is a home paper, and one of the best I have ever read, and also a great national and International paper, eagerly read and quoted in every State of the Nation and In every capital of the world. On my trip to the Far East four years ago I read The Eagle in every hotel and club, from their regular files, in China; Japan, Korea and the Philippines, where I was a guest. This la "the International with "the home need." Your Washington Bureau and Paris Bureau are both "oases" for the national or international traveler and your great courtesy to your readers both home and abroad In proverbial and most highly appreciated. As an admirer of The Eagle and proud citizen of Brooklyn I hope to see your centennial edition in 1941 and proudly rejoice with you over a hundred yars of most usful and honored newspaper work for the world at large, in which every citizen of Brooklyn can take, as he has always taken, a just and honest pride. Very cordially yours, WILLIAM CARTER.

"Dr. Evans seemed to be wrapped up in Senator Watson and wanted him put across," he added. The witness said Dr. Evans had told Indiana Klansmen before the primary that if Albert J. Beveridge ran against Senator Watson for the Republican Senatorial nomination he would stump the State against him.

"His statement came as a surprise at the meeting." Bolen added, "as it was entirely uncalled for." "How many people were at the meeting "I should say about 22 or 23.1 "Was any of the faction that had opposed W. Lee Smith for grand dragon present?" "I was the only one. Dr. Evans wanted the whole thing kept secret." Recalling Bossert, who testified last week in Chicago, Senator Reed demanded to know what he knew about the Washington meeting of the Klan officials. "I think I was at a luncheon with Males and Duvall." the former grand dragon replied.

"I discussed at that meeting the appointment of Judge Orbison as corporation counsel." "Were they for Orbison or against him Senator Reed asked.

"Did you understand they went to Washington on the appointment of Judge Orbison "I did not go with them so I can't say exactly what they went down there for." Senator Reed at this point read the testimony of Bradford at Kansas City that Senator Watson had participated in a conference of Klan officials at Washington resulting in the resigration of Bossert. Bossert said he did not follow the Indiana Klan officers to Washington, explaining that he got on the same trein on which Mayor Duvall made the trip. "The Mayor of Evansville and Joe Huffington came on the next train," he added.

"Do you know why a Mayor of Indianapolis went to Washington about the appointment of his own corporation counsel?" Senator Reed asked. don't know." The witness said he probably taked about Orbison's appointment with Dr. Evans, but he was certain he had talked with "my good friend Zumbrunn." "Did you understand that any of the Klan officers were to consult with the two Indiana Senators about Orbison's appointment?" "I can't recall that did." Bossert testified he met W. they, Lee Smith, Huffington and a newspaper man named Sanders dianapolis at Washington after the first conference regarding Orbison. Met Them at Klan Headquarters.

MORSE MADE CHANGES IN FINANCIAL REPORT Government Seeks to Prove Alterations Gave Investors False Information. The man who, it is expected, will be the Government's "background" witness was called to the stand this morning at the resumption of the trial of three sons of Charles W. Morse: and 14 others in the United States District Court, Manhattan. The witness is Arthur C. Watt, who has been engaged in the preparation of financial statements.

The trial of the Morse brothers, Harry Erwin A. and Benjamin who with the others are under indictment charged by the Government with conspiracy to defraud in the sale of stock of the United States Steamship Company, is being held before Judge Thomas D. Tracher. To Tell of "Overt Acts." With the Government "foundation" testimony practically all in and in view repeated warning from Judge Thacher to the prosecution to get the period of the indicttestimony now is expected to Involve what the Government terms "overt acts." Watt testified to interviews he had had with B. W.

Morse on the financial condition of the steamship company. Later, he said, these statements were published in a financial publication. Some changes were made in the prepared interview before publication, he said. These were made, he testified, by B. W.

Morse. On crossexamination he admitted one of changes was the reduction in the number of ships under construction at that time by the Morse concern. These statements, according to the prosecution, gave false information and among other things declared the American Appraisal Company appraised the United States Steamship Company at $12,500,000. First Alleged Victim Called. William T.

Black. cashier of toms for the Port of New York and for more than 20 years connected with the customs service, followed Watt on the witness stand. Black was an investor in United States Steamship Company stock and is the first alleged victim to be called by the prosecution. Black said he had made purchases of steamship stock from 1916 to 1920. He testifled that after the receipt of a circular alleged to have been sent out to holders of the stock by George W.

Wells, one of the defendants. he turned in his steamship. stock in exchange for stock of the United States Ship Corporation. The exchange was made on the basis of the five shares of steamship for four shares of ship stock. At the conclusion of argument Judge Thacher ruled that, on the representation by the Government that it would show the exchanged steamship stock, instead of being returned to the treasury of the company, was resold to the public and the proceds pocketed by the defendants, he would accept the evidence pending this connection by the prosecution.

Drink Blinded Virtue, Say Trio of Robbers Does whisky at 25. cents a drink destroy the power to differentiate between right and wrong? This is the problem that came to County Judge George W. Martin yesterday afternoon when three men pleaded guilty to first degree robbery. They were John Malloy, 23, of 25 Stagg Otto Mier, 31, of 83 Maujer and George Brabant, 23, of 593 Grand st. They said they went to a restaurant owned by Walter Markunas at 9 Stagg on Sept.

19, and after they had several drinks at 25 cents each they forced him to give them $59.60 from the cash register. "That stuff." declared Judge Martin, "1s a short cut to the insane asylum. But robbery's robbery, and ordinary drunkenness is no excuse." They were remanded for sentence. HEAVY TAX DODGING LAID TO ADAMS IN OIL CRACKING TRIAL Government Counsel Alleges He Failed to Pay on Much of $1,186,000 Income. Attempting to discredit the testimony of Joseph H.

Adams, Brooklyn inventor and a primary defendant in the case of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana and 46 other oll companies accused of pooling gasoline "eracking" process patent, counsel for the Government today cited figures showing that Adame failed to pay income tax on the greater part of his income of 186,000 from 1920 to 1924, inclusive. The case is being tried before Special Master Charles Martindale at 26 Broadway and affects about $500,000.000 of the nation's gasoline output. Alexander B. Royce, Special AsAttorney General. produced photostatic copies of signed incometax return sheets, filed with the Secretary of the Treasury, showing Adams paid tax only on a straight salary of $12,000 year from the Texas Company, to which he sold 'his gasoline "cracking" patent.

The royalties from the oil company to the defendant, averaging about $300,000 a year, were not recorded on the income-tax books. At first, former Governor Nathan L. Miller, attorney for Adams. jected to the use of the Income-tax records as being Illegal because the figures, he said, were a private matter prior to 1924, when they were made public. Miller stated that Adama did not pay income tax on the royalties from his invention because the royalties represented Income on property owned before March 14.

1913. when the first income tax laws went Into effect, and that his failure to pay was upon advice of counsel These royalties, he explained, represented the purchase price of property and not income. C. G. BORNMANN DIES.

The coffin containing Mrs. Mills was taken from its grave in Van Lieuw Cemetery in the darkness, at about 2 a.m. today, under conditions of complete secrecy, with only the superintendent and two dravediggers present. The absence of other witnesses, it was said, may prove embarrassing to the' prosecution when it trics to prove that this was, in fact, the body taken from Mrs. Mills' grave.

The secret midnight removal of the coffin came as the result of a petty clash in authority, which the police investigators in the Hall-Mills case point to as another instance of the local opposition to the present went. Body Removed Over Trifle. Lt. Walter Cieciuch, chief of the detectives in the case, brought the order to the cemetery yesterday and obtained two grave-diggers to open the grave. While they went to work, he went to get the superintendent, in whose presence the body must be removed.

At 4:30 p.m. the casket had been uncovered and the grave-diggers stopped work and went home Yorston had not arrived nor had Cieciuch returned. Later police came and took up watch over the grace. A canvas tarpaulin was spread across it. At about midnight Police Chief Jack Bowman of North Brunswick appeared.

He told the group of waiting newspaper reporters and photographers that they might a8 well gO home. Nothing would be done until the following, afternoon. They This morning Cieciuch came to the grave. One grave-digger -was already there, doing nothing. "What happened here?" Cleciuch asked.

Nothing, it seemed, had happened. except that the coffin was taken on Yorston's orders to his home. The superintendent had felt he had not been properly deferred to when the grave was opened in his absence. He had proceeded to make sure of proper deference in the future. Coffin Found Encased in Mud.

The actual removal, it was learned later, was carried out not without its difficulties. The pine box at the bottom of the open pit proved to be heavier than expected and would not budge when an attempt was made to. lift it by means of the hand windlass. The derrick was then procured, and flanlly the box and the coffin were raised. Within the box surrounding the coffin was a mixture of mud and rain water.

The name plate could not at first be read, it was so covered with rust. But after some cleaning the name appeared: "Eleanor Mills. The box and coffin were then put on a truck and taken to the lonesome house of Yorston and put in the shed which the cemetery superintendent calls his "receiving vault." Here two local polfcemen stood guard through the night and this morning. BEECHHURST CLUB FORMED. (Special to The Eagle.) Albany, Oct.

An assessment was leview recently for acquiring lands and opening a drainage canal between W. 10th st. and W. 11th st.
