NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—So confident is “Nan” Patterson of acquittal that her belief has spread to the prison at- tendants, who are subscribing to a fund with which to buy a present to give to her when she Is discharged. | They also will give her a Christmas’| present. | “Nan” spent a cheerful and hopeful | day in the Tombs. She was in a_more | normal mental state than on Satur- | day, when she was nervous and some- what low spirited. She several times remarked to the aftendants that she was glad it was her “last” Sunday in prison. To-day she joked and laughed with several of the women prisoners | to whom she had taken a fancy. She | remarked to the matron that she was anxious to go on the stand and was positive she would be acquitted. The prisoner’s father called to see | her in the morning, but she acted on | the advice given to her on Saturday by her counsel and sent word to him that she could not see him or anybody else. Patterson then sent a note to her and received a long written mes- sage in reply. Several futile attempts | were made by women, evidently friends | of Miss Patterson, but who refused to give their names, to see her to-day. The trial will be resumed to-morrow morning when it will be announced by her counsel whether she is to go on the stand. —_————— CHICAGO, Dec. 19.—The sash, door and blind factory of Philip Wrenn & Co., at Croe- | by and Halsted strests, was destroyed by fire | to-night. jured.
