filed an affidavit in the orphans court
of the District yesterday, stating that he
feared MS company would suffer loss
and damage by reason of securityship
for Frank J. Donelly, the administrator
y the estate of Nora NJ Hughes.
Mrs. Hughes died in 1897. leaving pro-
perry valued at s, 254, part Of which con-
sisted of jewelry worth about $1,000. Mr.
Poole in his affidavit, states that on July
e last, the final account of Donelly was

that according to his account he IS
chargeable with net balance of S22s. SO
and jewelry valued at s11lS.75, and that

the money or jewelry among the heirs.
Poole also says that he has reason TO
believe that part of the jewelry is now
deposited with the Washington Safe De
post Company. in the individual name of
the administrator, Donelly, and not in
his official capacity.
The Fidelity and Deposit Company
therefore, requests that Donelly be re-

THE FUND is GROWING.
Defense for the. X. of l.. Men In
dfcted for Conspiracy.

The General Defense Committee COM
posed of representatives from the four
central labor bodies, which was appointed
to secure funds to employ counsel TO de-
fend the members of the Knights of La
Dor who are indicted for conspiracy I'M
der the antitrust law, met last evening
at the rooms of the Labor Bureau.
The reports of the several subcommit-
tees were very satisfactory showing that
their appeal for aid was being generously
responded to by organized labor through
out the United States and Canada. Dur
ing the meeting Milford Spohn, formerly
president of the Central Labor Union and
at present representative OF that or
ganization on the defense committee
called attention to the fact that a mem
Der OF the local Federation OF Labor,
whom he supposed was also a member of
the committee, had viciously attacked the
trades unionists of the country in the
press. Mr.. Spohn said that the trades
unonists had come to the front manfully
in support of the men who are under in
dictment, and he thought It very bad pol
icy for the people whom the trades union
lists were trying 10 aid to countenance
such acts by one of their members. He
for one, ne said. would not tolerate it,
and If the Objectionable member was not
removed from the committee he would
resign. 1t was explained TO Mr.. Spohn
that the member referred TO had already
been dropped from the committee and this

SHE WAS NOT MURDERED.
Wounds on Matte ReynoIds's Body
Made by the Undertaken.

Deputy Coroner Glazebrook concluded
the investigation of the death of Matte
Reynolds, the colored woman who was
thought to have been murdered late yes
terday afternoon. He found that the
wounds supposed to have been the cause
of death were made by the undertaken in
embalming the body.
Mrs. Reynolds was the wife of Moses
H. Reynolds, of North Hampton, Va,
where she died about three weeks ago.
The body was brought 10 this city and
buried in Moore's Cemetery, near Hills
dale. The mother of the dead woman
became suspicious of the manner in which
her daughter met death and decided to
have the remains exhumed and an inves-
tigation made.
Accordingly permit was obtained, and
in the presence of a member of the police
force from Anacostia substation the grave
was opened and the body removed to the
morgue Immediately after the eXamina-
ton of the body it was returned and re-
inferred.

You and Moy You Lu against Moy Gee

tract and also asking that he be en-
joined from setting up a cheap, or "eut
rate" laundry establishment near the
plaintiffs places of business, came up

TERRITORIAL LAW.

The Senate committee has finished
its work upon the organic law for the
Territory of Hawaii, and the amend
ed bill will shortly be before Congress.
What its fate will be is by no means
assured, for Legislative bodies have a
way of slashing bills, even after they
have been through committee, so that
their own progenitors would not know
them.
The changes in the Senate commit
tee are not very great, at the same
time that one or two are in the inter-
est of the active politician. But UNI
der any circumstances the active poll
tician could have got round the word
Understandings" in the qualification
for voters, the clause so framed smelt
rather of the study lamp than of the
sawdust floor of the polls.
The House committee on territories
does not like the powers given to the
governor for the appointment of Judg-
es of the court and also objects to the
property qualification for voters for
senators. From what one reads in the
kilograms the House is averse to con-
tinuing present men in present places,
or at least in the important positions,
and favors an election to number
of the official positions.
After all, these suggestions are
purely tentative, but the real work
will come when the bills actually
come before Congress. 1t is to be
hoped that ample information will be
at hand to correct mistakes.
