The aged secretary of the Wade Park Bank presented a pathetic p ture as he gnswered question after guestion which brought out his im- plicit faith in the woman whose fin- ancial transactions have well nigh ruined him in fortune and” caused him h infintte trouble. He gave too, that he still believes his trust s justified. Omly one query he attempted to evade. This was when he was asked how much personal estate had passed into the possession of Mrs. Chadwick. His eyes filled and he requested that he be excused from answering. The formal indictments voted against Mrs. Chadwick this afternoon are based, one upon the Carnegie note for $250,000, which was made pay- able at the office of Andrew Carnegie in New York City, and the other upon the Carnegie note for $500,000, which made payable at the National Bank of Commerce in New York. Un- der each indictment are two counts, one charging forgery, the other the uttering of a forged paper. Information of the indictments was at once wired to New York by County Prosecutor Keeler, and he requested that Mrs. Chadwick be immediately rearrested if.she had obtained bail on the other charge hanging over her. IRI REYNOLDS TELLS ALL. The examination of Iri Reynolds be- evid was fore Referee Remington in the bank- | ruptey court to-day failed to disclose any asset that might be secured by Receiver Loeser, appointed by the | Federal court. In reply to a question he said: “She told me she was the illegiti- mate daughter of Andrew Carnegie.” Later Reynolds, in detailing his transactions with Mrs. Chadwick, said: “In all my transactions with Mrs. | Chadwick I believed from what she told me that Andrew Carnegie was backing her and that all her indebted- | ss would be paid.” of his ! | [ DR. CHADWICK'S DENTAL. PARIS, Dec.- 12.—Dr. Leroy 8. | Chadwick of Cleveland, whose wife, Cassie L.

Do I look like a man of millions?” he added, ‘caliing attention to his appearance. “Any one would | be able to see that I am not a man who had received mfilions from his wife.* Asked whether Mrs. Chadwick is in | reality Lydia Devere, he answered: “The first time that I ever heard the name of Madame Devere in this | connection was when I saw it recent- ly in the papers. Only once before had I ever heard the name Devere. That was twenty-nine years ago, at a post mortem examination at which I | assisted, on a woman of that name, | i | [ | | | who was sald to have been a fortune teller. I only recall this from a pe- culiar surgical feature which the post mortem developed.” . The doctor was shown a publication stating that the Chadwick securities embraced notes for several million dollars signed or indorsed with the name Andrew Carnegle. “I do not know Andrew Carnegie personally,” replied the doctor. “Does your wife know Mr. negie?” the doctor was asked. “I would rather not discuss Andrew Carnegie,” said Dr. Chadwick. —_———— NURSE SAID TO HAVE USED POISON ON HIS WOUNDS Car- Charge Made That Improper Treat- ment Caused Death of Wyoming Hospital Patient.

Asked as to the other transactions subsequent to 1903, Reynolds said: “There is one. It is a little banking secret, but I am willing to tell it. She came to me—I think it was in 1904— and sald she had 312,000 in paper pay- able at the Prudential Trust Company. If T would let her have the money she would put up United States Steel bonds in the morning as collateral. sulted my company and with their con- sent loaned her the money. The next day she brought a package which she said contained $200,000 in United States Steel bonds and a $250,000 certificate, which T was to hold in trust for her under the same conditions as the previ- ous package. I held these until a month ego, when, ‘in the presence of several gentlemen, they were opened. It was about the time Newton began his suit. They contained bonds all right, but they were not steel bonds.” When asked what they were Rey- lds said: “There were five $1000 bonds of the Home Telegraph Company of Niagara, N. Y., and six certificates of the Buck- eye Fish Company..’ Repeated efforts on Reynolds’ part tc close up the dealings with Mrs. Chadwick met with excuses and de- lays. He was put off time after time, yet Me did not lose confidence. Several, notes of $10,000 each, payable to Dr. Chadwick, had been taken up by Reynolds. He declared they were pay- able out of any moneys that might have been on credit to Mrs. Chadwick in the First National Bank of Cleve- land. Some of these were paid and in February or March, 1904, money was placed to her credit in this bank. Rey- nolds believed the money came from the East to pay all these and felt as- sured that what he held was all right INTRODUCED BY 'PHONE. He was furthef assured when Judge Olcott of New York came to Cleveland and was Introduced to him over the telephone by Mrs. Chadwick. Judge Olcott assured him that he would re- lieve Mrs. Chadwick from her unen- viable position. He knew Judge Olcott was here because he was assured by a check for $1500 signed by Judge Olcott he recelved the next day. [ He last saw her November 10. She desired to go East and had no money. 'He cashed & check on the Lincoln Trust Company of New York. It was returned marked “account closed.” He took it out of the Wade Park Bank, paid it and has it in his possession. He brought the Newton debt to her at- tention and advised her to go East and raise the money and settle the whole sffair and he thought she went East to se¢ Andrew Carnegie.

The California Gas and Electric Corporation, which recently contract- ed to supply the United Railroads with electric power for the cperation of the entire street railway system, has let the contraet for the generators of the new plant to the Crocker- Wheeler Company through their Pa- cific Coast manager, the Abner Doble Company of this city. The machines, three in number, will be of the Crock- er-Wheeler type and will have a ca- pacity of 4000 kilowatts each. They will be directly connected to 5500~ horsepower gas engines, the largest in the world used for such service. The generators will deliver twenty-five cy- cle, three-phase alternating curren and will feed into the railway system through the present substations. This contract marks an important step in the electrical advance of the city, both on account of the large size of the generating units and because of the prominent part which thé big transmission company evidently in- tends to play in the local power fleld. g o DORAN IS ADJUDGED INSANE.—Charles oW, N, the druggist, was AT * W, N, ons, insane, He will be sent to Washington, D.

Eldredge did not fancy the territory to which he was assigned and expressed his dissent by offering his resignation, which was ac- cepted. . He rated in banking circles as an alert, resolute man, who is familiar with the banking business. He does not accept the assurances of a man- ager or cashier that everything about an institution is all right, but insists on making a personal investigation of liabilities, reserves and securities. His style of going directly and immediate- ly to the work assigned to him does not always commend him to the good graces of bank managers, but deposi- tors are inclined to applaud his meth- ods. < Herman Silver of Los Angeles, presi- dent of the Bnr* Commissioners, is in San Francisco on official business.

Deed Is Witnessed by Sev- eral Persons Who Make No | Attempt to Prevent Crime LOS ANGELES, Dec. 12.—A most atrocious and unprovoked double mur- der was committed here this morning | by a one-legged miner named John Mc- Clure, who shot and killed Julius Tze- | daceff and then stabbed to death Je- | rome O'Shea, both employes of a livery | stable on San Pedro street, near Sec- ond. The killing was the result of a | quarrel over a halter, the value of| which was about 10 cents. | The men began quarreling in the | barn, when MecClure suddenly drew a | large revolver and fired point blank at Tzedaceff, only a few feet distant. Tzedaceft fell to the floor, then arose | and ran across the street, where he bumped against the wall of a bullding | with sufficient force to break his nose, | and then fell dead. McClure followed | his victim across the street, but re- | turned to the barn, when he fell. As| soon as the cripple re-entered the sta- ble he made a vicious lunge at O’Shea, drawing a huge dirk knife as he did so. He threw O'Shea to the floor and | plunged the long knife again and again into his prostrate form. Six knife | wounds were made in O'Shea, any one | of which would have proved fatal. ‘With his bloody knife and revolver in his hands, the murderer then left the stable and proceeded down the street. He was stepped by Officer | Bartlett after he had gone a short dis- tance and arrested. He surrendered his weapons and accompanied the offi- cer to the police station. “Here is my knife and gun,” he said to the sergeant at the desk. “You will find two dead ones down at the livery stable.” The killing was witnessed by several men from the opposite side of the | street, who, however, did not interfere and made no effort to detain McClure when he left the stalfle after the trag- edy. —_——— SEEKING MANY FRANCHISES FROM THE GARDEN CITY Interurban Company Wants to Ex- | tend Its Electric Lines in San Jose.

DATE OF TRIAL IS SET R Prisoner Becomes Impudent to Jailers and Sheriff Or- ders All Favors Stopped Spectal Dispatch to The Call. AUBURN, Dec. 12.—Judge Prewett to-day set Adolph Julius Weber's trial for the murder of his mother for Janu- ary 23. Attorney Grove L. Johnson argued for a later date, but the court thought the date set would give ample timo to all concerned. Weber was also arralgned on the Grand Jury indict- ment charging him with the murder of his father. When asked by the court if Adolph Julius Weber was his true name and if he wished to be tried under that name, young Weber, who wore a white ribbon in the lapel of his coat, arose and made the staftling announcement that he wished to be tried under the name of Adolph Weber. Jullus was his father's name. Monday next was the time set for hearing Weber’s plea, to the charge of killing his father. The indictment charging Weber with the bank robbery was not brought up. The contest for letters of adminis. tration on the Weber estates was com- promised, Public Administrator W. A. Shepard taking two estates, those of Bertha and Earl Weber, the=-children, and John Adams, guardian of Adolph Weber, the estates of the parents. Young Weber has been so impudent to the jailers of late that Sheriff Keena has given orders that he be shown no more favors. Attorney, Johnson ap- pealed to the court to-day asking that the liberties the prisoner has been en« Joying be continued. Judge Prewett re- fused to Interfere, saying the prisoner was in charge of the Sheriff. Keena's action is being favorably commented on by Auburn’s citizens. They say that the Sheriff has been entirely too good to the prisoner and should have cut off his liberties before this. It has leaked out that during the investigation before the Grand Jury it was ascertained that Julius Weber had frequent dealings with the bank in ecarrying on his busines of loaning money and that a short time before the tragedy he borrowed quite a sum. This is thought to completely dispose of the theory that the money found behind the barn was buried by him, an unlikely thing in any event, as his business was loaning money at inter- est, not hoarding it. —_———— STANFORD DOES NOT WANT FRESHMEN TO DEBATE i Societles Decide That First Year Men Have Not Had Sufficient Training.
