UNITED PEEss NEWS SERVICE.

New Agree.e.t A-onE Fesr New York
Another practical step has been taken in the
move to protect the news service Of the United
Press and to continue the distribution OF the
news TO all clients and customers Four Of the
original m en- ers OF tho old Associated Press
have signed an aRreemen to this effect am on G
themselves. and the last legal paper for Its en-
forcsment was executed yesterday. The four
papers arc ~ Herald. Sun. Tribune. and Times.
Probably no iagal document so binding In its
form was ever agreed to by any newspapers In
this country.
This step. together with some others now
under consideration by the clients and asso-
cistes OF the United Press will result in tho
organization OF tho leading newspapers Of tho
Atlantic scaboard into an association which
will not only cover the Eastern territory more
thoroughly than ever from news point. but
will also ineure additional extensions OF this
service In Western territory.
since the fact was made known that the
United Press service would be rendered to all
applicants. excepting always at points that are
protected by existing franchises or contract
relations. the determination being to protect
cations have been received and favorably
passed. upon. Among these new clients are
the Baltimore World. tho Cincinnati Tribune.

she had been taking ehloral. There she
begged for morphine She said she had been
In trouble and wished TO die. She also said
her parents lived in Copenhagen.
In one OF hor pockets was found . slip OF
