The rock upon which the republic

before his pilots had fairly conspired

not be so in Brazil. This is the great
danger feared today by the n" sters

CHICAGO, September The work Of
securing a jury in the Crouin case was re-
sumed this morning. The only matter Of
interest developed thus far was q rulins by
Judge Mcconnell, excusing Talesman W.
r. Turner for cause. Mr.. Turner tCltifed
that he was a membe, Of the American
League OF Independent Order Of OfDsputies,
whose object is to prevent members Of the
Roman Catholic Church from holding or
controlling political offices in this coun-
try. The talesmsn, however, thought
this would not ird1euce his action, and
that De could give the defendants a fair
trial, even if it were shown that they
were members Of the Can-Ni Gael The
defense challenged him for cause, and the
court sustained the challenge.

possession of it when she arrived. She was
given $3.50 on promise that she would re-
linquish all hold to the child LAST week
she again demanded il, hut it was only
given to her sfser she threatened to COM
NIT suicide on the spot Now, Mueller
seeks to recover it by habeas corpus pro-
ceedings and says that if he can get it be
will adopt it legally and add it to family

NEW YORK, September 4.-The devel-

tend to confirm the discovery that Ham

his own child in order to induce him to
marry her.
According to Inspector Byrnes Mr..
Hamilton, believing the woman true to

father, finally married her on January Z
at Paterson, n. J. Mrs. SWinton told the
inspector that Eva had frequently repre-
sented that she was married to her son
Joshua, and she believes il herself to be a
fact. 1t has been learred that last March
Mrs. Hamilton gave Mann q check for
81 600 on the Union Dime Savings Bank.
He drew the money and deposited ii.in his
own mama. Ol April Is he drew 1t out.

her. She went to the bank, made state

and said she had carried out the scheme
in order to get the family jewels and sil-
yerware left by Mrs. Hamilton's mother in
her will to Robert Rays wife. When she
got possession of these she said she would
make plenty OF money.
Inspector Byrnes has investigated all the
statements mFde by Mrs. Swinton and
finds them TO be true. Dr. Gilbert, who
attended the seconded child, told the in

Hamilton begged him to saved its life,
and stpted that its life was worth 500, 900
