SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM STOCKS TAKE TUMBLE Amalgamated Copper Leads De- cline in Securities. OFFICIALS DENY THE STORY Rumored That Next Annual Meeting of the Company Will Order the Sus- pension of Work at All Its Mines in Montana. New York, Oct. 1 .—A heavy out- pouring of stocks sent prices on the stock exchange tumbling and by early afternoon many serious losses had been recorded. Unfavorable rumors regarding the forthcoming annual meeting of the Amalgamated Copper company, which gained wide circula- tion in the street, were credited with being largely responsible for the heavy slump. According to these re- ports, which officials of the company deny, it was said that it would be decided at the annual meeting to close all the Amalgamated company’s mines in Montana for an indefinite perfod. Amalgamated Copper dropped 2% points on the report, which caused heavy selling, and some other stocks suffered even more severely, the losses ranging as high as 5% in Consolidated Gas. The fall in Consolidated Gas was colncident with reports that its affairs are soon to be investigated by the public service commission. When the sharp decline was checked the market became dull. The market closed weak and irreg- ular after a rally in the final hour. CAPTURED IN LONDON. Man Suspected of Complicity In French Church Robberies. London, Oct. 1 .—A Frenchman giv- ing the name of Posse, but who later was identified as Gotche Spira, has been arrested here on suspicion of be- ing implicated with the Thomases of Clermont-Ferrani, France, in the theft of church treasures. In the prisoner’s possession the police found three val uable books apparently taken from the national library at Paris. He was held on the charge of being in the un- lawful possession of stolen articles. One of the books was entitled “Status de I'Ordre Royal de Saint Michel,” published in 1476, which was stolen from the museum of St. Germain and is valued at $2,500. Spira informed the magistrate that he Was sent to London by a lawyer of Paris to sell the books. The police believe that through Spira they will be able to trace some of the objects stolen from French churches and sold in England. ASKS FOR MARRIAGE LICENSE Court Files Order in Divorce Suit of Mae Wood-Platt. New York, Oct. 1 .—An order di- recting Joseph Day Lee, a lawyer, to produce the alleged marriage certifi- cate and a letter in which his client, Mae Wood-Platt, alleges Senator Thomas C.

The proceedings were preliminary to the trial of Miss Wood's suit for divorce from Senator Platt, which is on the calendar for early in Novem- ber.

HIS PHYSICIANS HOPEFUL But Recovery of Austrian Emperor WIill Be Slow, ‘Vienna, Oct. 1 —Emperor Francis Joseph passed a comparatively quiet night, his sleep being occasionally in- terrupted by coughing. His tempera. ture iIs lower. His majesty rose at his usual time, drank a glass of champagne to stim- ulate his appetite, which Is still poor and asked for the state documents prepared for his perusal, after which he began reading and signing papers. The doctors in attendance on the emperor express themselves as being hopeful, but they say a complete re- covery is not expected for a long time. They insist that the emperor must remain at Schoenbrunn castle the whole winter, not going to Buda- pest, according to his usual custom. Late in the forenoon the emperor expressed a wish to walk In the park, but his physicians declined to allow him to do so.

Said to Be Practiced Openly by In- dians and Halfbreers. ‘Winnipeg, Man., Oct. 1 .—Tales of cannibalism, wholesale murder, awful famine and deadly feuds among the natives of Northeastern Canada, be- tween the eastern shore of James hay oand Labrador, are brought back by J. A. Osborne, the veteran editor of the Fort Francis Times, who has just com- plcted a trip of exploration in that desclate, uninviting country. While at Moose Factory the ex- plorer met a young man who fled thither in terror of his uncle, who, he said, had killed and eaten eight hu- man beings. There, too, he saw a woman who last winter killed and ate her two children, so great was the famine. This lack of food primarily ‘Was brought about by the fact that the ‘Woods seemed almost entirely without the usual number of deer and rabbits, | upon which animals the natives or- dinarily subsist. As these occurrences did not seem to have caused any tremendous stir in that region Osborne has come to the conclusion that cannibalism is practiced openly upon many occa- slons among the Indians and half- breeds. Osborne says the Indian and Es- kimo population of the region is diminishing rapidly, due partly to em- igration to the coast cf I.abrador and partly to the prevalence of disease and frequent scarcity of food. He says many of the natives are falling prey to tuberculosis. MRS. CHADWICK 1S DEAD Notorious Career Ends in the Ohio Penitentiary. Columbus, O., Oct. 1 .—Mrs. Cassle Chadwick, whose amazing financial transactions culminated in the wreck- ing of an Oberlin (0.) bank, is dead in the woman’s ward at the Ohio peni- tentiary. No friends or relatives wait- ed at her bedside; only the prison physician and his attendants. Her son, Emil Hoover, had been summoned from Cleveland, but did not arrive un- til after his mother was dead. The decline in Mrs. Chadwick’s health began almost from the time she entered the penitentiary on Jan. 12, 1906, sentenced to ten years’ im- prisonment. She worried about her troubles until it became almost impos- sible for her to sleep. Mrs. Chadwick was a healthy look- ing woman when she came to' the prison, but she gradually wasted away and had lost fully thirty pounds at the time of her death. Her last ill- ness dated back about three weeks. The physicians declared Mrs. Chad- wick was the victim of a total nerv- ous collapse, Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick, whose maiden name was Elizabeth Bigley, was born in Woodstock, Can. She first came into public notice in To- ledo, O., twenty years ago, where she told fortunes. There she forged the name of Richard Brown of Youngs- town, O., and for this crime was sent to the penitentiary at Columbus for nine years. Twice Married in Cleveland. She served but a portion of the sen. tence and then located in Cleveland, Where she married a man named Hoover. Her second husband was. Dr. Leroy 8. Chadwick of Cleveland, a man of good family and excellent standing in his profession. In 1902 Mrs, Chadwick, in the pres- ence of her husband, gave Iri Rey- nolds, cashier of the Wade Park bank, Cleveland, a box contdining notes signed with the name of Andrew Car- negle. These forged notes are alleged to have amounted to $7,600,000. Rey- nolds gave to Mrs. Chadwick a re- ceipt for the paper. Mrs. Chadwick left with Reynolds, as an explanation of the existence of the notes, the statement that she was a natural | daughter of Carnegle. With the receipt Mrs. Chadwick went to different banks and many capitalists, making loans: and paying not only high interest to the banks but heavy bonuses to the bank offi- cials who loaned her the money. These transactions ran into the mil lons. They involved men of high standing in the financial world” and caused heavy losses to many banks, The body of Mrs. Chadwick was turned over to her son, who had made arrangements for interment at Wood- stock, Cnn_.

New York, Oct. 1 .—The mystery surrounding the disappearance more | than a week ago of Helen Maloney, daughter of Martin Maloney, the Phil- adelphia millionaire, was given a highly sensational turn during the | day. At the time of Miss Maloney’s | disappearance Samuel Clarkson, a young Englishman who had paid her marked attention, also dropped out of sight and it was reported and gener- ally believed that the couple had | eloped and been married. Now comes the news from Montreal that the miss- | ing pair had been married by a Cath- olic priest in that city and then had returned to New York and sailed for Burope. i Following the Montreal announce- ment comes the publication here of an unqualified .statement from Arthur Herbert Osborne, a young broker of this city, that Miss Maloney is his wife. According to Osborne he and Miss Maloney were married Dec. 28, 1905, and the marriage never has been annulled. Osborne says records in the notary's office at Mamaroneck, ‘which show that Herbert Osborne had | married Helen Eugene on that- date, will prove his statement. He said assumed names were used because at the time Miss Maloney desired to keep the marriage a secret. The fact that the marriage had taken place did be- come known, however, according to Osborne, and he declares that among those who learned of it was young | Clarkson. He says that not only did Clarkson know of the marriage, but | that only a short time ago he sought to have it annulled, having gone so far as to consult a New York lawyer on the subject. Montreal Marriage Confirmed. Montreal, Oct. 1 .—Alexander L. Bonin, a lawyer, has confirmed the statement made that Helen Eugenie Maloney and Samuel Clarkson were married on the evening of Oct. 8. | He says they spent.the day in his office and were exceedingly anxious to be married.
