When the Marcum case was resumed | { to-day Commonwealth’'s Attorney Byrd sald that the detall sent out last night to arrest Henry Freeman, a witness, had re- turned without him. Lieutenant Cannard and Deputy Whittaker, sent by the Com- monwealth, reported that Goodloe Combs, who went along, on the order of Judge seem hope- Redwine, to the surprise of the soldiers, | when within a hundred yards of Free- man’s house, ran ahead and fired two shots. Combs claimed that he saw some- | “thing in the road. When th¢ soldiers ar- | rived at Freeman's house he was not there. Evidence tnat he had run away | when he heard the shots was shown by some garments left behind and his foot- | prints in the earth were fresh. His wife admitted that he had been there and she | was held, but Judge Redwine refused to have her as a witness. The anti-Hargis | people say that Freeman is an Important | | witness and they feel he has been hired | | to remain away from court. i | Byrd sald he would have to close the case without Freeman and submitted the | | case of the Commonwealth. Attorney | O'Neal, for the defense, moved for per- emptory instructions dismis€ing the de-| fendants. Judge Redwine excused the | jury to hear the arguments on the motion. | Attorney Golden made a lengthy ad- | dress and was followed by Thomas Mar- | cum, 'who took his first prominent part in | the case by reply to the motion. His re- ! ply was intensely dramatic. The motion to instruct the jury to ac-| quit Thomas White was overruled. White | heard the arguments with tears in his eyes. He was extremely nervous when they closed. THE FAMOUS OLD | JUMEL MANSION | There are left within the limlts of New | York City only three buildings closely associated with Washington. One is | Fraunces’ Tavern, where he bade fare- ! well to his troops; another is St. Paul | Chapel, where he worshiped, and the | third is the Morris House, on Washing- ton Heights, better known as the Jumel | mangjon, where his headquarters were estabBlished on September 15, 1776, and which he quitted just in time to avoid | capture on November 16 of the same year, when the mansion and the fortified posts on the upper part of Manhattan Island were cantured by the British. From the two months’ residence there of the father of his country and the fort to the ngrth- westward, named in his honor Washing- ton Helghts, derived its name. The city of New York has already de- clded to preserve Fraunces' Tavern. St. | | Paul's is in hands which will doubtless | keep it from the grasn of real estate speculators for all time. Washington's headquarters, however, are not so secure. The hand of a vandalism miscalled pro- | gress may be laid upon the historic build- | ing at any moment. All that has kept this beautiful specimen of colonial archi- tecture from the greed of speculators for ten vears has been the pride of General Ferdinand P. Earle, a distant relative of its builder, and his wife, descended di- | rectly from revolutionary stock. Mrs, | Earle has been the owner of the prop- | | erty since 1804. General Earle died last Japuary and his widow could not be in- duced to sell the place, except to the city | for preservation on account of its his- | torical assoclations or to some patriotic | assgociation. The future of the place de- pends in a large measure upon the dura- tion of Mrs. Earle's life, for its command- | ing situation renders the site peculiarly ! desirable for Dbuilding purposes and templing offers are made almost daily by those who appreciate the chances for profit in its purchase. ‘The Jumel mansion, which the present owner has renamed Earle CUff, deserves preservation as a well-built mansion of the colonial period as well as for its his- torical assoctations. The house is still surrbunded by large grounds, bounded on the north by West One Hundred and Six- ty-second street, on the east by Edge- combe avenue, and on the south by West One Hundred and Sixtieth street and on the west by Jumel terrace. West One Hundred and Sixty-first street has never been cut through the property or through the block to the westward, which, how- ever, is divided a third of the distance south of the line of that thoroughtare by a picluresque terraced alley, known 8ylvan place. The city already owns all of the land {o the eastward of the south- ern half of the property.

W YORK, June 13.—Some hesi was manifest in to-day's stock market after the violent recovery in pric of vesterday and the day before from the effect of the tremendous depression of Wednesday. Many stocks have regained from 3 to 7 points during the two days. The effect has been to lessen the demand from bargain hunters and to develop some selling pressure from the specula- tive contingent, which was fortunate enough to procure stocks at the low level. This element showed some anxiety to take profits to-day, and took advantage of the to sell stock The lessened demand was demonstrated by the inability of the market to absorb these offerings, so that prices ran off sharply and closed generally below last night's level. The losses were mostly fractional. Operations for continued this morning, especially in Bal- timore and Ohlo and Reading, the former | stock rising at one time nearly 2 points and the latter a point. The large earn- ings reported by the Baltimore and Ohio were the motive for buying the stock. and reports were current that Reading would | earnings for May. The decision against the right of the In- terstate Commerce Commission to exact certain information from the coal carriers also was made much of by the buyers of Reading. Some of the inactive stocks which had suffered from recent heavy de- clines were bld up sharply to-day, mem- bers of the Canddian group being con- spicuous. STRONG BANK STATEMENT. The loan contraction of $11,776,100 by the banks was regarded as gratifying evi- dence that the stock market liquidation had at last become effective in the re- cuperation of the bank resources. The cash increase of about one and three-quarter millions about agreed with the expectations and the rise of $4,701,5% in the surplus about makes good last The statement was as good espect, but the de- mand for stocks thus induced was not | sufficient to absorb the sales to take profits, Gloom and despondency overhung the stock market in the early days of the week, but on Thursday there was a sud- den reversal of sentiment. It is ceriain that nothing justified the extreme views held by operators on Monday evening and Thursday morning. On Wednesday the prevailing view was that the country was facing a crop siort- age, that the iron and steel trade had passed the culmination of its prospority for the present movement and that a gen- eral industrial reaction was in sight. On Thursday morning the more mercu- rial of the operators were willing to prophesy a new period of expansion in al directions. In other words, the prevailing sentiment took its tone from the move- ment of prices In a ggneral opening at- tempt to fathom the motives of the sell- ers, and, consequently, of the buyers. Tt was evident that the bulk of the seiling was prompted not by despondency over the outlook, jbut by especizl necessities of the sellers growing out of the over-cx- tension of the obligations in new projects, which had overtaxed their resources of capital and credit. There was good evi- dence that some very heavy holdings of a speculative character also were being thrown over, presumably from necessity, owing to the great shrinkage in the mar- ket value of securities with a correspond- ing contraction in the basis of credits, which required the placing of additicnal collateral for loans and the supply of col- lateral for additional margins for holding stocks to credit. BEARS BECOMING OVERBOLD. The prolonged period of the decline and the lack of recuperative power in the market had made the bears very bold. To gell stocks and borrow them for delivery and then offer prices down seemed to have unvarying success in uncovering stop-loss orders, wiping out margins and bringing a flood of offerings, which could be bought in at the lower level and yield a handsome profit. The great financial interests, which are usually ready to come into the market and buy simply for support, seemed indifferent and it was suspected or feared that many of the wealthy men had their own needs to look after In protecting holdings of unmarket- able sccurities. The level of prices was getting down to an attractive level from a strictly Investment standpoint, and the fact that the decline was still unchecked Zave rise Lo fedrs that insiders had knowl- edge of unfavorable conditions not known to the public and which prompted the solling of stocks, It is characteristic of the zenuine in- vestment buyer, however, that he does not concern himself with protecting mar- ket prices and Is content to accept offer- ings at a level which agrees with his judgment. While the market early in the week gave the impression that all were ion | the advance | eager to sell and ail reluctant to buy, the conception grew that the buying which goes necessarily with every sale was of a DENY GOLOMBIN'S RIGHT 70 RECEDE | of stocks for every fraction of the decline became conspleuous.

OXYGEN, OZONE and ELECTRICITY are, the three agents which will cure CONSUMPTION. The ocean air of San Francisco s laden with ozone and oxy ®en. and at this season of the year there is no climate in the world more favor- able to the cure of CONS! ON than that of San Francisco. Climate alone in no part of the globe can cure CON- SUMPTION unassisted. The most posi- tive cure of this disease is Electro- Chemistry. Electro-Chemistry goes di- rectly into the diseased lung tissue. It heals up cavities, it opens up congested and consolidated spots in the lungs by forcing fresh oxygenized blood into them. It stops night sweats and even- ing fevers because it relieves the in- flammation in the lungs and because the gloog is circulated freely and built up y_it. Electro-Chemistry and San Francisco climate in combination during the sum- mer months will cure every case of consumption in the early stages. and cases far advanced. where the whole system is not undermined, are promptly and per. manently cured. Every patient fearing or suspecting consumption is invited to call for free X-Ray Examination. Come at once; it is dangerous to delay. AND TREATMENT This remarkable free Electro-Chemie X-Ray Examination is showing many a sufferer a quick and painless road to complete recovery. It has been the means of keeping many women off the-6perating table. It has shown both men and women that a number of diseases which in the past have been turned over to the surgeon can be cured without surgery. Any one suffering from Cancer, 4 Uleers or any disease of the or can be cured by Electro-Chemistry even the worst cases that surgery or medicines will not benefit. This is a broad statement. but we have cures to prove it. Comsumption, Catarrh, Bronchitis and Asthma are cured by tne Kiectro-Chemic X-Ray and Oxygen Treatment. This treatment is placed painlessly right down into the I and Bronchial Tubes, and cures because it goes directly to the foundation of these troubles. Deaf- ness, Mead and Ear noises of years' standing are cured by that carries Electricity directly to the affected nerves. culates the blood in a natural manner to every part of the ears and brings these organs to a normal condition, and the cures are rmanent. It behooves every sufferer who ig not doing well under the older systems of treatment to investi- gate Electro-Chemistry now while it does not cost a cent to do so. All Examina- tions are Free, and in curable cases a treatment is free. Persons living at a dis- tance should try to eome in for examination. and in most cases they can return home the same day. taking a necessary course of home treatment. We loan an Electrical Apparatus for home treatment free of charge. We treat all chronie dis- eases and all special diseases of both sexes. We have separate apartments for our lady and gentlemen patients. and everything is arranged for their comfert and convenience.
