He said he knew Mrs. Hanns- man, but denied having written the “Fant” letter. While he was locked up the de- tectives went to his home and made a search. They say they found a photo- graph album containing, among other things, two used envelopes pasted in, each uddressed to “P. L. Fant, No. 2114 St. James Avenue, Cincinnati.” This was considered evidence enough to justify the formal arrest and arraignment. Dalene WEDDING HOPE LESS, SUES.

Those all-wool blankets (Over 98 per cent. pure). at $5.80 each *The whole metropolitan district seemed to want them. People came from all parts of New York—Bronx, Brooklyn, Long Island, Staten Island, New Jersey and from New York State and part of New England. At 7.30 yesterday morning hundreds were waiting to enter the store. Yes, they broke in one door—but not intentionally; merely the weight of the eager crowd. Soon we had to close the doors and admit customers one by one. | / Then—as the crowd increased rather than slackened—we asked each gen ha e not more than two blankets—so the blankets would “go round.” But’ they did not begin to “go round”—the 7,000 blankets. They were all sold out by about ten o'clock. ’Phone orders were coming in faster than we could handle them and in fairness to the people who were already in the store we had to stop taking "phone orders, much to our regret. And what orders the mail will bring today we do not know. But, in the meantime we had been searching the market—by 'phone—for more blankets. Some lots were offered—inferior blankets—and these we refused. Word then came from the American Woolen Company, from whom we had bought the original lot— “Still have in work 7,600 same blankets for use elsewhere’’ When we explained the situation—the overwhelming demand here— a release was secured at a high price and they promised to ship the blankets immediately—an additional 7,600. They are Gentienliy the same blankets first offefed, except they will not be stamped UV. S. With this sidditional lot promised we began taking orders. : It was an all day job. Patiently the crowds lined up and gave their names and addresses to have us ship the blankets as soon as received. These orders will be filled first and to those who had to content themselves with one or two blankets we will make extra deliveries out of this new lot if they will send us their names and addresses and the quantity they can use. We appreciate more than we can express the patience and good humor of the thousands of people who were disappointed in not getting the blankets and as our first obligation is to these we will not place the new shipment on publig sale until we have filled all orders that came from our first announcement. Whether we will have blankets enough to meet the demand is uncertain, but we are still trying to buy more blankets of the same grade and kind. Orders will be received in eg in the Blanket Store, Fourth Gallery; or by ’phone and mail, to bé filled up to the quantity of blankets we can procure. All at the same price—$5.80 Kindly bear in mind that there are none of these blankets unsold now in the store and that the new purchase wili not be placed on public sale until all.old orders have been filled. If we can manage to procure a Wetdo not believe there has been ever such a public expression of good will and confidence as so spontaneovw:y came with this event. Our sinceré thanks go out from the heart to the public for its gener- ous co-operation and patience in a sale that is without precedent in mer- cantile history. ¢ a gat at Ninth St., New Yor!
