TELLS OF POOL IN ICE STOCK President of Company Testi= fies in Morse Case. HAD NO MONEY OF HIS OWN Witness Says Defendant Furnished Cash for Two Speculative Ventures, the Former Giving Notes Which, He Admits, He Could Not Pay Had the Transactions Turned Out to Be Losing Ones. New York, Oct. 21.—In the trial of Charles W. Morse and A. H. Curtis in the United States court, Judge Hough presiding, for alleged violation of the national banking laws in the manage- fment of the National Bank of North America, Wesley M. Oler, president of the American Ice company, resumed his testimony. The subject under im- mediate investigation was the pool in stock of the ice company in which Morse, Charles M. Schwab, John W. Gates, John F. Carroll and others were interested. Mr. Oler told of two transactions in this stock in which he had ventured on Morse’s promise to “carry” his account. At the time the witness was indebted to the National Bank of North America and the New Amsterdam bank, another Morse in- stitution. In one of these deals Oler gave his note for $45,500, secured by 1,000 shares of stock. This deal was closed at a profit of $90,000, which sum was credited against his indebted- ness to the National Bank of North America. The second transaction was in 2,000 shares and Oler’s note in this instance was for $141,000, with the stock as collerateral deposited at the bank last named. The witness said he could not have paid the note and that Morse was fully informed as to his financial condition. On cross-examination Mr. Oler said he had been president of the ice com- pany since 1904, receiving a salary of $24,000 a year. He agreed with the lawyer for the deferse that the year 1906 had been a prosperous one for the ice company, as it had earned 10 per cent on its total capitalization of $20,000,000 and paid a quarterly divi- dend of 1% per cent that fall. Like Mr. Morse he thought the future of the ice company was promising. Mr. Oler said he regarded the fig- ures $33,000,000, which represented the American Ice company's geod will, patent rights, ete., as excessive. DEMUR TO INDICTMENTS. Haina Brothers Arraigned on Murder Charge. New York, Oct. 21.—Captain Peter C. Hains, Jr., and his brother, T. Jen- kins Hains, were arraigned before Su- preme Court Justice Garretson at Flushing, L. I, on an indictment charging murder in the first degree in connection with the death of William E. Annis. John F. Mclntyre, counsel for the defendants, demurred to the indictment on the ground that the grand Jury had not been properly drawn, his principal objection being the presence on the jury of a man sald to have been a lifelong friend of Annis. The court refused to take up the point, whereupon Mr. Mclntyre asked for time to inspect the minutes of the grand jury before entering the plea for his clients. J. ). HILL TO THE RESCUE Said to Have Raised Big Sum for Republicans, Chicago, Oct. 21.—During the past week the Republican national cam- paign fund has been enriched by con- tributions of several hundred thou- sand dollars and James J. Hill is the man who has raised the money, says ‘Walter Wellman in the Record-Herald. Mr. Hill has thus taken the place in the Taft campaign which “My Dear r. Harriman” held in the Roosevelt campaign four years ago. For the first time since the opening of this year’s battle the Republican national committee feels comfortable finan- clally and able to push the work with vigor during the last fortnight of the campaign. Pierce Must Go to Texas. ‘Washington, Oct. 21.—In the extra- dition proceedings of H. Clay Pierce of the Waters-Pierce Oil company of St. Louis against Chief of Police Creecy of that city the supreme court of the United States denied Pierce’s motion for a rehearing.

Federal Supreme Court Refuses to Ad- vance Hearing. ‘Washington, Oct. 21.—The supreme court of the United States practically indicated its disapproval of the efforts to bring that court into politics at this time by denying the motion to ad- vance the hearing in the case of the Noble State bank of Oklahoma against Governor Haskell and others, involv- ing the constitutionality of the Okla- homa bank_deposit_guaranty law. A £peclal plea “Was made T3¢ e ad- vancement of the case because of the’ prominence of thé campaign question of the guarantee in bank deposits, but the court declined to act upon the sug- gestion. SEVERAL THOUSAND PERSONS PERISHED Heavy Loss of Life in Recent Typhoon in Ghina, Amoy, China, Oct. 21.—The damage done in the recent typhoon was much greater than at first reported. In Changchow 3,000 houses, including the prefect’s yamen, were destroyed and 1,100 persons killed. In Lamcheng, fifteen miles west of Changchow, 600 houses were destroyed and 1,200 per- sons killed. Fifteen miles north of Changchow three villages were entire- ly destroyed, 400 persons being killed. Admirals Sperry and Emery of the American battleship fleet, now in Ja- pan, have sent messages of condolence to Commissioner Mark. g - Behind the Screen. ‘At a particularly dainty little restan- rant a lady with a sense of humor chooses the seat nearest the serving room, from which vantage point she notes and records, somewhat after the wanner of Miss Beatrice Herford, the Bquabbles and comments of the dainty ‘waitresses. Here are ssme of her cu- rious transeripts from reality: , “I told you six soups, not desserts— the beginning of the meal, not the fin- ish! Can’t you hear straight?” “Here, Birdie, take back this coffee! It's so cold it gave the woman ma- larial” “Great Scott! This lettuce isn’t fit i for a horse! I'd sooner eat grass!” “Oh, gee! Hurry up! It's for an old maid, and her temper’s worse’n mine!” “Say, you're the limit! 1 asked for fat meat, and you've given me a joint —nothin’ but bone! Wake up!” Behind a screen, my correspondent tells me, they often imitate certain of the guests—mimicking their walk, even their table manners. And as for the remarks she overhears, she mar- vels less at their content than at the way they are uttered. “Such voices!” And so she expresses astonishment that at table, while waiting on the peo- ple, “these young women are ever quiet and demure and patient—soft tones and a cheery but dignified man- ner.”—Boston Transcript. Precious Stones and “Paste.” Glass, or “paste,” as it is called, Is made which cannot when new be dis- tinguished from diamonds by any one but an expert armed with the neces- sary tests. And the same Is true as to paste imi- tations of all precious stones excepting the emerald (whose beautiful green tint cannot be exactly obtained), the cat’s eye, which has a peculiar fibrous structure, and the opal. The real value and quality of precious stones as com- pared with glass depend on their dura- bility, their hardness, their resistance to scratching and “dulling” of face and edge. Even our Anglo-Saxon ancestors made gems of glass and paste. It is only in modern times that the art of making artificial “precious stones” has reached a degree of perfection which, so far as decorative purposes are con- cerned, leaves the natural stones no claim to superiority.—London Tele- graph. Official Precedence. The Chicago Inter Ocean tells of the daughter of a well known representa- tive who on her tenth birthday had a party, and one of the guests was the daughter of a senator. The birthday cake shone gloriously with ten candles. A few weeks later the senator's daughter reached her eighth milestone, and a party was in order. Just before the guests arrived the small celebrant betook herself to the dining room to take a look at the festal board. High on its pedestal of crystal stood the birthday cake, and circling its snowy circumference were eight tiny candles, one for each year. “One, two, three, four, five, six, seven —eight!” ejaculated the small hostess. “Mamma, mamma, please come here quick. They’ve only put eight candles on my birthday cake, and my father's a senator! Now, Mary had ten candles on her birthday cake, and she’s only the daughter of a congressman.” k Wit. Napoleon was pacing up and down one day before his quarters, planning probably some new scheme of con- quest. He dropped his glove, and a common soldier happening along pick- ed it up and returned it to him. “Thank you, captain,” said the em- peror absentmindedly, not thinking that the man was only a private. “Of which company, sire?” put in the soldier promptly, taking Napoleon at his word. “Come to me tonight and you shall recelve your commission,” said the great commander. He knew that that common soldler had the presence of mind necessary to make a good officer. In the “Coaching” Days. An amusing story Is told of the coach which used to run between Edinburgh and Berwick. A passenger complained bitterly that the cushion on which he sat was wet. It appears that there ‘was a hole in the roof, and through it the rain was pouring copiously. The passenger called the guard and in great wrath reproached him. All the satisfaction he got, however, was the quiet and typical Scotch reply, “Ay, mony a ane has compleened aboot that hole.”—St. James’ Gazette. Books In India. In India the printed book is regarded as vulgar if not irreverent, and no de- vout Hindoo would allow his sacred ‘writings to be contaminated by contact with leather prepared from the hide of gome animal’'s dead body. A leather bound copy of the Bible is for him a remarkable illustration of Christian ir- reverence.—Churchman. BY BURSTING " STEAM PIPES Four Men Literally Cooked to Death on Boat. ACCIDENT IN MIDLAKE Signals of Distress Fail to Briig As- sistance and Three of the Crew Vol- unteer to Attempt to Reach Shore, Thirty Mil Distant—Their Boat Capsizea Owing to a Heavy Sea, but They Finally Reach Land. Kenosha, Wis., Oct. 21.—Four men were literally cooked to death on beard the steam barge Maggie Mar- shall in midlake off Kenosha when a sleampipe in the engine room burst and escaping steam literally burned the men to death before they could make their way out of the room. The list of dead is not known at this time as the three members ot the crew who reached Kenosha, after swimming a mile against a north wind, could not glve the names of the dead. Those who swam to shore are N. C. Thomp- son, Otto Frank and Alex Forsstran. - It is known that one of the dead is Chiet Engineer John Peterson of Man- istee and the others were his assist- ants in the engine room. The crew numbered thirteen and the steamer was making its last trip of the season. When about thirty miles east of Kenosha the steampipe burst, dealing out death to the four members of the crew wha were below. The main valve of the engine was blown into the stairway and the men on the upper part of the steamer closed the hatches. The steamer then anchored, started the bells and put up a flag of distress. When no assist- apce was received a part of the crew volunteered to attempt to reach shore. The sea was high and when within a mile from shore the boat capsized the men were compelled to swim the rest of the distance. They were well nigh exhausted when they reached land. SIX DEAD; MANY INJURED Fierce Gale Hurls Caboose Down an Embankment. Cheyenne, Wyo., Oct. 21.—As the result of an unprecedented accident on the Union Pacific at Lone Tree Creek, thirty miles west of Cheyenne, six laborers are known to be dead and several others probably met death, ‘while twenty-five or thirty others were injured, many seriously. A terrific gale picked up the caboose of a work train, tore it away from its coupling and carried it over the edge of a hill. It dropped thirty feet with its forty occupants, nearly all of whom were section laborers, and the terror stricken men were piled in helpless confusion among the wreckage when it landed. TORNADO AND CLOUDBURST Four Persons Killed and a Score Injured. Clayton, N. M., Oct. 21.—Four per- sons were killed near Clayton as the result of a tornado and cloudburst. Twenty other persons were more or less injured, three of whom it is be- lieved will die. The storm was severe in other sec- tions. At Folsom, where nineteen persons were drowned last August, the Cimarron river rose to within a foot of high water mark, causing a panic among the people, who fled in terror to the hills. Chicago Breaks Record. Chicago, Oct. 21.—The revised reg- istration figures have been completed. They show a total of 411,120 residents of Chicago and Cicero entitled to vote, as against 403,017 four years ago, a gain of 8,103 over the last presiden- tial election. It is the heaviest regis- tration the city ever knew. The re- vision struck 2,799 names off the lists, The unrevised totals were 413,919. Train Near Disaster. Laporte, Ind., Oct. 21.—One hundred passengers on the Chicago and Erie train No. 9, westbound, were in peril for their lives near Wilders, Laporte county, when the train narrowly es- caped dropping into the Kankakee river because of the burning of the bridge. The engineer saw the flames ahead just in time to save running the train into the structure. Bank Robbers Secufe $1,700.

Philadelphia, Oct. 21.—From nearly every mountainous section of Pennsyl- vania come reports of \ forest and brush fires, the flames in some in- stances endangering villages that are surrounded by woodlands. Most of these fires are believed to have been started by hunters who have thronged the woods since the rabbit season opened on Oct. 15. The prevailing dronght has dried out the leaves and branches of trees and made them fine fuel for flames fanned by a strong | wind. Near Williamsport, in the central part of the state, the cltizens of vil- | lages are fighting fires. These are Leetonla, in Southern Tioga county; Trout Run, in* Nofthc:n ~Lycoming, and Mordaunt, in the eastern'part of Sullivan county. The fires on the Allegheny moun- tains are burning with renewed vigor and all efforts to check them have been unsuccessful. No rain has fallen in that part of the state in two months, In the Poceno mountains, in the eastern part of Pennsylvania, flames &re sweeping over a great area in de- flance of the fire fighters. Johnstown, Pa., Oct. 21.—The forest Afires throughout the gllegheny moun- tains are spreading rapidly and condi- tions are reported alarming. The eastern slope of the mountains is ablaze for several miles and a number of villages are threatened with de- struction. At Dougherty, Dean .and Dysart the situation is serious. There is practically a water famine In this vicinity and little progress is being made against the 'fires.” Smoke hangs like a pall over miles of territory. THAW TO REMAIN IN NE'Y YORK ASYLUM Federal Court Dismisses Ha- beas Corpus Writ, Pittsburg, Oct. 21.—The writ of ha- beas. corpus ad testificandum recently issued by United States Judge Archi- bald of Scranton, Pa., against Super- intendent Lamb of the New York state hospital for the criminal insane, which ordered the presemce in this city of Harry K. Thaw, slayer of Stan- | ford White, to testify in bankruptcy proceedings, was dismissed by United States Judge James W. Young of this district, This means that Thaw will not be brought to this city for the present at least. Judge Young held that there was no necessity of bringing the prisoner away from his proper place of confine- ment into this district. He said if his evidence is necessary his deposition can be taken without bringing Thaw here. The writ must therefore be quashed, he said, and the petition dis- missed with costs. Ex-Governor W. A. Stone, attorney for Thaw, said that he had not deter- mined what he would do next. PROPOSAL PREMATURE. Russia Will Not Intervene in Persia at Present. Bt. Petersburg, Oct. 21.—The pro- posal that Russia intervene in North- ern Persia to prevent all of Persia falling a prey to anarchy and to safe- guard Russia’s commercial and other Interests in the country is considered by the ministry of foreign affairs to be premature. The government does, however, contemplate taking the nec. essary measures ‘to protect Russian subjects and Russian trade. It now contemplates strengthening the guards at the consulates in Northern Persia and is about to send 100 infantrymen to Tabriz. " Ohio Forest and Brush Fires. Toledo, 0., Oct. 21.—Forest and brush fires are sweeping through sec- tions of five counties of Northwestern Ohio, dolng an immense amount of damage.
