Yesterdays Quotations of MetropoIi-
tan Hallway Stock Continue.

The advance in the quotations of Metro
poiitan street railroad securities in the To-
cal market. noted in yesterdays Star con-
tinped today. Yesterday the highest price
reached was S165 per share, and today there
was a recorded sale on the local stock
board of $1S5 per share No stock changed
hands in the local exchange today, but the
sale of four $1,000 bonds was recorded
These bonds. however, are convertible into
stock, and the ruling price determined also
the quotations for the stock
As far as could be learned there is moth
ing new in the situation as outlined in yes
terdays Star. The agreement which is
said to have been signed by stockholders
owning control of the road is for the
purpose, it is explained, OF keeping the
stock from being scattered under the in
fiuence of the prevailing high prices. 1t is
not, it is stated, agreement to sell at
$40, but one binding the signers not to sell
for less than that figure.
1t is not known what interests want this
property, and the mystery surrounding the
identity of thu would-be purcha sers of the
railroad property, as well as of those who
have secured a control of the United States
Electric Lighting Company, is the subject
of much interesting speculation. No new
theories characterize the current gossip
and the admission is frankly made that the
electric light deal is secret that has been
well kept. 1t is believed in some quarters
that the money which is to pay for the
electric light stock is being secured mainly
in this city.

MRS. WILLIAMS DEAD
As Adele Cults She First Gaptivated Stephen
A Douglas.
Accompanied the Little Giant i'm His
Campaign-Her Last Marriage
n Love Match.

Mrs. Williams, wife of ex-Adjutant Cen
Robert Williams, died at her residence in
this city, 20O1 p street, last night. In the
death of Mrs. Williams a personality is lost
which recalled TO many one of the most
charming of women whose beauty and
social triumphs passed into the his
tory of Washington three or four decades
ago. Mrs. Williams was Miss Adele Cults,
daughter of James Madison Cults, who in
the fifties was controller of the treasury
Her mother came of the Greenough family,
and from her the subject of this sketch IN
herited the beauty for which she had a
worldwide reputation. 1t is said that at
fourteen years she was considered as
beauty of the purest Greek type. Her head
and face were perfect in shape ana Outline
AS young lady she was the acknowledged
belle and beauty, and her personal charms
were no less striking even al that time
than were her graCeJ of mind and charac-
ter; of her good looks she was UNCONSCIOUS,
and of personal vanity she had not par
ticle.
She first met Stephen A. Douglas at
White House reception. Their marriage
was a great event. When the little giant
made his presidential campaign mis- beau
tiful wife accompanied MIN everywhere,
and was received with great eclat. After
the death of her husband she rarely ap-
peared in society, and, in fact, led almost
the life of a recluse. Later on she met
young widow became again a bride. 1t
was an ideal love match. and in the quiet
life they have since enjoyed with the So
ciety of their six children the lovely char
acter Of the wife showed at its best. Hon
ors both in military and political career
came to General Williams and were re-
Elected in the peaceful joy of his home,
where his wife was queen.
In the parlor of Gen. Williams residence
is Iife-size picture of his dead wife, which
depicted her In the height of her charms.
The picture which is over the high altar
of St Aloysius Church, which represents
the first communion of St. Aloysius, is an
other picture Of Mrs. Williams, she being
the model for the saints mother.
Mrs. Williams had gone little into society
since returning to Washington. Her health
had, at best. been precarious, but she
greatly improved lately, and was able to
take an active part in the wedding of her
eldest daughter a short time ago. To the
last she retained the exquisite charm in
conversation and manner which, with her
beauty, made her a conspicuous figure in
Washington society over thirty years ago.
and which was at all times her most potent
attraction. Mrs. Williams was a devoted
Catholic, interested in charity, and the
warmest anu pest of friends

FOR ILLEGAL FISHING.
John II. Luckett Required to Answer
for Alleged Violation

John T. Luckett the river captain whose
alleged illegal work of SEEMING the river
for bass Tuesday night was told in yester-
days Star, was arrested last night on a
warrant sworn out by Deputy Game War
den Morgan. He was taken to the fifth
precinct station, where he deposited s25 col
lateral for appearance in the Police Court
this morning. Attorney Darlington appear
ed as counsel in the case and q postpone
ment until tomorrow was granted.
The deputy game warden also included
in the warrant the reporter of The Star
who was on an investigating tour Tuesday
night when the seine was being hauled. 1t
is likely that when the case comes I'D to-
morrow a jury trial Will be demanded
Defendant Luckett, speaking of the case
said he had no reason to fear the result
for his license, obtained at the custom
house. he said gives him authority to fish
in any part of the river. This point he
said, has not yet been raised in the prose-
cutions of the cases under the fish law and
he feels satisfied that it will be a defense
to the charge pending against him
