Mr. Burden said that when he was approached he was told that Colonel Mann wielded a trenchant pen. This, however, did not induce him to sub' scribe. A copy of Town Topics issued in 1899 was shown to the witness, who denied tha-t Abraham H. Hummel, the lawyer, had consulted him about an unpleasant paragraph iu that issue of the paper. Colonel Mann then told of the be ginning of his connection with Town Topics, and how \V. K. Vanderbilt came to be a stockholder of the paper. Colonel Maan said: Found Himself a Pauper. “In 1878 I was connected with the Pullman Car company. When the crisis came in Wall street, or, I might say, the conspiracy’," said the witness, “I found myself suddenly changed from being a millionaire to owning not a dollar and being $100,000 In debt. “It was at this time I became inter ested in Town Topics, and I went to W. K. Vanderbilt and asked him for a loan. I think he gave me about $25.- 000. b told Mr. Vanderbilt that I wished to get out of debt, and wanted him to help me. He told me that what I owed him I need not worry myself. “I sent to Mr. Vanderbilt and told him I needed more money, and asked him to take some Town Topics stock as collateral security. Later he le- turned my notes and th estock and sa’U he did not care to loan me any more money, but said he hoped I would get on." Asked as to how he came to be suf ficicntly well acquainted with J. f | Morgan to borrow $2,500 from him without security, Colonel Mann said: “I met and I knew his father. I think I know him well enough to aSk him." Bill May Not Pass.
