TO BUY UP CRAMPS.
yICKERs-MAXIM COMPANY FORM
ING A HUGE COMBINATION.

NEW YORK, Dec 10-The Evening
Post says: Though the persons In this
city who last week Informed this news
paper of the fact that negotiations for
Cramps -Vickers-MaXim consolidation
were pending are not yet able to say that
they are concluded, some. persons who are
discussing the transaction in Philadelphia
have already reached the point where
they are defining terms of the sale. 1t is
even said there that experts employed by
Vickers' sons and Maxim will report that
the Midvale Steel company made $l,4OOOO0
in government contracts last year, and
the English firm will then purchase the
steel company for $7,000,000. The next
step will be the purchase of the Cramps
Ship and Engine Building company by
the proffer to the stockholders OF share
of the preferred stock of Vickers' Sons
and Maxim for each share OF Cramps
stock to the amount of $7,000O00.
According to persons in this city who
are informed, the investment of English
capital in American ship yards Is to be
made in order to secure share in the
profits, which are expected to come from
contracts for naval vessels to be built
by the United States government. This
theory is supported by the fact that the
Vickers-MaXim consolidation, while yet
young company, has already obtained an
interest in the chief armor and ship-bui.d-
ing plants of Spain and Sweden; they are
of course debarred from France, and in
Germany the Krupps are supreme, SO
they naturally turn to America, where
they expect a great development of ship
building, and count on the passage of a
ship subsidy bill to help this industry"

Sad Life History of Minnesota
Woman Reunited to Her Hus-
band Only to Lose
Him Again.

WINONA, Mimi, Dec y
A peculiar as well as sad story has
come TO light in regard to Mrs. A. G.
Wilson, of La Crescent Mimi, in her
endeavors to find her lost husband Just
twenty-sever years ago, Mr.. Wilson, then
bridge builder, left his home and went
to Rushford Mimi, to do a job con-
tracted for. He never returned His
faithful wife waited in vain, hoping
that some day she might again see her
missing husband, whom she had given
up for dead. 1t was not until recently
that she heard of him and then it was
from Mexico. He was living in Sabinas,
Mexico, and had been for a number of
years. She went there and with the aid
of the postmaster had little trouble in
locating her husband. Both seemed
happy to see each other, this being par
ticularly true OF the wife. But the hap
piness was not to last long, for the man
had another wife. Another meeting
was planned for Thanksgiving day
But he never filed the engagement. The
next morning, taking q shotgun with
him, he told some friend that he was
going down to the river to kill some
game for dinner. That was the last
heard of him. His prolonged absence
alarmed his friends and wife and a
search was made for him. He was found
by the river bank with his head nearly
blown off. He had placed the muz-
zle of the gun in his mouth and pulled
the trigger with the above fatal results
The cause for his action is attributed
to the fact that he had two wives and
feared the disgrace consequent upon
meeting his first wife.
The first wife is nearly prostrated over
the sad event and doubly so after the
joyous meeting.

IS N HANDS OF IBE Jury
ARGUMENTS OF COUNSEL CLOSED
IN THE TRIAL OF JESSIE
MORRISON
THE INTEREST Is WIDESPREAD
Letters of Sympathy Received by
the Prisoner, While Others De-
manding Conviction Reach
the States Attorney.

ELDORADO, Kan, Dec. 1O-whon
Jesse Morrison entered the court room
today 1T was to hear the last argument
IN her defense on the charge of killing,
Mrs. OIin Castle. Attorney Redden. the
prisoners leading counsel, in forcefuI
aooress TO the jury, pleaded for the re-
lease of Miss Morrison, declaring that the
cuts she inflicted were done in self-de-
1ense. Capt. Waters followed for the
state and demanded that a verdict of
murder in the first degree be returned.
With but two more arguments to be
made, 1t seemed assured that the cass
could be given to the jury late in the
oay' tact that seemed to relieve Miss
Morrison, while it intensified the inter-
est of the public. Throughout the day
the court room was crowded. An inno-
walton during the trial today was the
seating arrangements of the prisoner, her
friends and attorneys who We're seated
in a Semi-circle
In front of them a three-year-old niece
OF the defendant played on the floor with
IN four feet Of the jury, or ran from
grand parent to aunt to attract their at
tention. Finally she climbed into the
lap of Miss Morrison and laid her face
against the prisoners shoulder. The
prisoner bent her head and kissed the
child, and then burst into tears.
Since yesterday Miss Morrison has re-
a few of these have been opened On
the other hand the states attorneys are
daily receiving letters expressing the
hope that the prisoner will be con-
victed.
Most of these come from women. One
from q Kansas City woman, received by
Capt. Waters, says:
1.-THE reople at large are looking to you
to see that justice is done, and that Jes-
sic Morrison gets the punishment she SO
richly deserves. If you cannot convict
her there Is no safety for us womankind.
Every jealous woman will feel safe in
giving away to their murderous Impulses.
knowing that maudlin sympathy viii pro-
tect them"
A. L. Redden, for the defense, con-
tinued his argument at the afternoon ses-
sion. There was in the court room the
largest crowd that it had ever held. Peo-
pie were standing on every foot of the
floor and men and women had climbed
up to the windowsills. There was not
a vacant spot within the Enclosures for
lawyers. Women, as usual, were in the
majority. Miss Morrison appeared in q
different hat and jacket and had bedeck-
ed herself with roses. Judge Redden
finished his argument tonight after hav-
ing spoken seven and one-half hours. He
was followed by Capt Joseph Waters,
who made the closing argument for the
state, speaking four hours.
AT the conclusion of the arguments
Judge Shinn instructed the jury not to
begin its deliberations until tomorrow.
