Th« witness enumerated the gifts which he had presented to his second wife, Mrs. Pepperâ€"Vanderbilt. These were a library table, the house he lived in on St. Mark‘s avenue and a house on Eightâ€" ieth street. "I have never given her anything else.

No communication from Mrs. Pepper or "Bright Eyes" had so much as sugâ€" gested any of the presents made. They were all given because of his love and affection for Mrs. Pepper, the witness declared.

In nil of the guest rooms of Lord Sefton‘s résidences there is displayâ€" ed a notice that no gratuities are to be given to any servants. For years past Englishmen have yearnâ€" ed for a host who would veto the tips to servants and thereby sot the fashion which everybody else would follow. This is the season when the country house and shooting visits are in order, and when the question of tips annually becomes a burning topic. _ Complaints are heard on every side that the necesâ€" sity of giving big gratuities to servants and gamekeepers of wealthy friends who have invited one to the house or shootâ€" ing party makes the acceptance of such hospitality burdensome _ to a man/of mocferate means. The head gamekeceper expects a five pound note and every other menial counts upon a tip entirely out of proportion to the services he renâ€" ders the guests. Counrting cost of guns, cartridges and disbursements one has to make for a week‘s shooting, it has been caleulated to run up at times as high as $500. This is the outside estimate, but the average expenditure of gratuities among servants is given by competent authorities at $100. Karl of Sefton Prohibits Guests Giving Servants Gratuities.

The report, which was written by Senator Monis, severely arraigns the adâ€" ministrative policies of the navy, and demands the inauguration of several reforms.
