Romantic Hist ory of an Interesting
Young Lady.
CHICAGO, Sept. 7.-Some days ago Chief
of Police Hubbard received request from
DIR. ]. H. Brewer, of Sioux City, Ia, for the
full names and addresses of all the Adams
in Chicago. The following story is told in
explanation of the request:
ABOUT twenty years ago a man named
Andrews eoped with with Miss Viola
Adams, the daughter of wealthy resident
of Chicago The father cast his daughter
off. The young husband soon began to treat
his wife harshly and finally she left him and
returned to her father, bringing her baby
daughter with her. Subsequently the child
was stolen, and all efforts to find her were
unavailing. Finally Grandfather Adams
died, leaving the missing child a legacy of
$40, 900. 1t now appears that she was stolen
by her father, who placed her in the family
of Norwegian named Nelson, of Des
Moines, where she grew up as their daugh-
ter. Recently DIR. Brewer discovered the
facts in the case and secured a confession
from the father who had been playing the
role of friend of the Nelson family. 1t
was his intention to take the girl to Chicago
and secure the legacy for himself. The
young lady is now with DR.. Brewers family
in Sioux City, and the doctor is endeavoring
to get her Chicago relatives.

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-After many post
ponements and delays the long heralded re-
cepton to John L.. Sullivan was held at the
Academy of Music tonight. Fourteenth
street from Third to Fourth avenues was
filled with a motley crowd of Sullivans ad
mirers, and when the champlon's carriage
appeared it was almost impossible for the
driver to bring it to the curbstone. When
the champion alighted the cheering was tre-
mendous.
The crowd in the academy was not nearly as
large as had been expected Sullivan appeared
late in the evening. He had lost none of his
old-time quickness and grace, and he never
appeared to better advantage than in his
bout with Mike Cleary. His appear
ance on the stage was the signal
for tumultuous applause, which lasted
for fully ten minutes. The "Blg Fellow
stepped to the foot-lights and made one of
his characteristic speeches. He said:
"Ladies and gentlemen: l do not know
what to say to YOU l am at present suffer-
ing from a sad affection, the loss of my
mother, but wish T. thank the New York
public for their kindness to me. They al
ways have been kind to me and l shall never
forget it. 1 beg to remain yonr humble
servant"
Sullivan then turned and shook hands
with Cleary and the audience was treated to
fine exhibition of scientific boxing.

in the mammoth sugar plant of Dick, Meyer
& Co. on North Seventh and North Eighth
streets, Williamsburg. The fire started with

mills at work. The entire establishment
which consisted Of a collection of buildings

feet ON North Seventh street, 300 feet on
North Eighth street and 250 feet along the
dock, was reduced to a mass of ruins 1t

estimated at about Sl,5oO,0O0. Within the
building there was quantity Of sugar
valued at about $500, 900, making the total
10 about S200O,0 900.
There were number of men injured by
the explosion or burned by the fire. Their
names are not obtainable.

CHICAGO, Sept, 7-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. When the citizens of Detroit SEQ
a tall, military looking man, with his beard
flying in the river breeze, leave the cars and
start TO walk home bareheaded they will
think that Ex-Governor Alger has surely
gone daft. Russell Alger, commander-u-
chief of the G. A. H., left Chicago by late
train last night. Those who saw him Off say
to-day that they never saw HIM in such
good humor, He hadn't n sou in his pockets
nor hat on his head. 1t occurred this
way:
There was little farewell party last night,
and General Fairchild arose to tell how he
felt about General Alger. He took occasion
to allude to the handsome commander-in-
chief whereupon General Alger went down
IN his trousers pocket and brought up a
double handful of keys, nickels, cuff buttons,
army buttons and half dollars. He arose
and carried the entire lot over to the
speaker, who Immediately held out his
hands, received the booty, thrust it into his
own pocket, and proceeded with his speech
amid much applause by those present
He's IN luck if he ever sees any of that
lot again." remarked Fairchild, and again
the party roared.

with wave of his hand. Shortly after Gen
eral Fairchild again alluded to the makeup
of his brother officer, aud this time in more
glowing terms than before. General Alger
picked up his hat aud offered 1t to the
speaker. Fairchild was not at all bashfui
He snatched the hat, exclaiming: "Yes, Pll
take that, TOO, and when you're elected pres
ident of the United States I'll give it back
for position In your cabinet" aud he kept
it. Thus it was that the commander-in-chief

BRAVE JAMES RELAY.
He Rescues n Drowning Girl In Spite
of Her Biting and Kicking.

New YoRK, Sept. 7.-One of tho most de-
termined attempts at suicide ever heard Of
was made last night by Lena Hertzog, sew
enteen years of age, who resides with her
parents in Williamsburg.
She was passenger on the ferry boat
from Brooklyn on the 1910 o'clock trip, the
last night trip to this city. When the boat
reached the Grand street ferry landing on
this side, Miss Hertzog came ashore, but i'm
meoiately returned and paid her fare and
once more took seat In the cabin. The
boat had just cleared the ship when she
came out of the cabin and jumped overheard.
The boat was stopped and life-preservers,
ladders and ropes were called into requisi-
tion. The electric light made things as clear
as day. The first hfe-preserver thrown fell
close to the glrl but she pushed it away,
with an angry gesture. The noise and
shouts attracted the ticket taker, James
Kelly, who has already saved thirteen peo-
pie from drowning He jumped into the
river, seized the girl by the waist and
lifted her bodily up so she might breathe.
The girl turned upon him and struggled to
free herself from his grasp. Kelly held on,
however, and made for the ship. A desper-
ate struggle followed, the half.drowned
girl seemed to gain strength and fought like
tigress. When near the ship, ropes were
thrown out. Kelly caught one and wound it
around the body of his charge, but it was
quickly thrown off. This the girl repeated
two or three times, and then, seizing her
rescuer by the arm, savagely bit him. Kelly
was becoming exhausted, and saw that if
the girls life was to be saved, violence
would have to be used, so he was compelled
to beat her to submission. The blows had
the desired effect for time, but when an
attempt was made to lift her up on ladder,
she broke out afresh but was finally landed,
wet, limp and exhausted. This water battle
lasted fully fifteen minutes. When stimu-
lanJs were offered the girl, later ON, she
threw the glass from her and smashed it. FL
nally the reckless creature was placed under
arrest and was afterwards sent to a hospital
in an ambulance. where to-day she was doing
nicely.
Her parents say the whole adventure
arose from a love affair.

The Northern Illinois Quarries Form
n stone Trust.

stone Trnst.
CHICAGO, Sept. Especial Telegram to
THE BEE. 1.-The great stone trust embrac-
ing in its operations the great northern Hi
nois quarry fields, Is no longer question of
dispute, and the discovery creates no little
excitement among builders and contractors.
Quarry owners and stone dealers are not
pleased that the secret of their organization
has been discovered. They do not deny the
truth of the statement, however, but have
little information to give regarding the pool,
which will have a capital stock of
S2,5O0,000.
1--WE have. tried hard to work the pool very
quietly" said the manager of the Sanger g.
Moody company. "It has been under consld-
Grafton for couple of months, and there is
no doubt but that it will be organized very
shortly. 1t will be composed of the owners
of the quarres around Lemont aud Joliet.
For three years we had practically the same
thing in the Chicago Building Stone COM
pany, TO whom all the quarries sold their
output. This was run on a percentage and
included the small owners who could not
afford to maintain an Office and go to the eX-
pense of working the business, but who
would sell at the quarry low enough to de-
moralize prices. After three years of fatten-
ing off the Chicago building Stone company
the small fellows demanded an increase of
percentage, and the company went under a
year ago. Prices have been demoralized
ever since from the same causes. Stone can
now be purchased IN Chicago for 81 per cord,
whereas we formerly got $3.50. The trans.
portation costs S3.25, so that but S2.75 is left.
Nearly all the owners around Joliet and
Lemont have slgnified their willingness to
go into the pool or syndicate. The associa-
tion will embrace all the quarrles around
these places and it will affect only the price
of foundation Stone.n
