Creditor Sues Calvin S. sBrice's
Widow.

New York, Sept. "a. 7tSpL)-..C ..Cathe-
rine o. Brice, the widow of the late
Calvin $. Brice, and Administrative
of the estate, is the defendant in suit
begun in the supreme court in which
Thomas M. King apd James n. Sterry
seek to recover 100000 as commits
sions in deal which was conducted
by the late tinnncier for the purchase
of the controlling interest in the Pitts
burg & Western railroad.
According TO the complaint combine
consisting of Mr.. Brice and several
well known men was formed In 1898
for the purpose of buying from 81 $780,
600 to $2,100,000 Of the second mort
gage 8 per cent gold bonds of the
Pittsburg ~ Western railroad. The
entire issue of bonds, says the com
plant, amounted TO $3,500,00O. On
Oct. 3, 1898, Mr. King received letter
from Mr.. Brice stating that in behalf
of several men. he desired to buy from

Brice, $2,000,000 worth Of ponds. Since
that time the plaintiffs have not been
able to collect the , per cent promised.
In her answer TO the suit Mrs. Brice
admits that the demands have been
made In behalf of the plaintiffs for the
commissioners alleged to be due. She
says, however, that she has no knowl-
edge of the contract and then makes
denial of some of the allegations. u
appears that Mr.. Brice's friends in the
alleged deal did not know of the deal
between King and Brice as to the .

ADMITTANCE
Refused Patient at Two
Public Institutions.

Frank &. Winebrenner, an employe
of the Hill Sewer Pipe company, re-
siding at 315 North Case ave, was
in serious condition Wednesday
night from an attack of epileptic tits.
In this condition Winebrenner is Il
dangerous person, and it requires sew
eral strong men to control him, as he
is possessed of almost superhuman
strength.
a call was made for Wall Bros
ambulance. He was placed in the
conveyance and taken to the City hos
pital, At this institution the matron
declined to take him in, as the patient
had been there twice before and ON
each occasion, while in a fit, had
knocked his attendants down and
broken furniture. 1t was suggested
that the patient be taken to police
Headquarters and the ambulance con
veyed him to that place.
n Acting Chief Durkin went out and
examined the man and then notified
Col. Mike Hoye, who was present at
the Health Board meeting. The health
officers suggested that they turn the
man over to Sheriff Kelly at the coun-
ty jail.
At the jail Winebrenner was again
seized with a fit and made desperate
effort to break the ropes which hound
him and escape from the ambulance.
Sheriff Kelly said he had not room or
cell in which to confine the patient
and ordered the ambulance to place
Winebrenner to the County Infirmary,
He was then conveyed there and ad-
mltted.

Competed With. Other
Machines at RichfeIe.
Will be Manufactured Upon a
Large Scale.
Factory Will Start on Next Seasons
Work Oct. 8.


The Buckeye Corn Harvester, manu-
factured by the Aultman, Miller & Co.
of this city, had field trial on the
Humphrey farm, at Richtield, Wednes-
day.
The Buckeye was in competition
with two other machines, the Deering
and Mccormick, and the three harves-
ters worked side by side in the same
field. The corn was exceedingly heavy
and the ground was soft from the re.
cent rains
The company has heard nothing
from the contest, which was conducted
under the auspices of a half dozen silo-
owners of Richfield township, who pro-
pose to purchase a couple Of corn har-
vesters to assist them in caring for
their crop of fodder for. ensilage.
The officials of the company only
know that their machine did it's work
well and was fully up to their expecta-
tions.
The manufacture. of corn harvesters
is new departure for the Aultman,
Miller Company, but the Buckeye is
no longer in the experimental stage.
The company has put out 800 machines
this season and reports from various
sections of the country, where they
have been tried, say that they. are Civ
ing splendid satisfaction. Next season
much larger number will bes.placed
on the market and the indications are
that they will all be sold early. One
dealer in Kansas City wanted 500 corn
harvesters this fall, hut the company
could not make them in time. He had
to be content with so machines.
The manufacture of this valuable ad-
dition to the realm Of farm machinery,
upon large scale, will mark a new
era in the history of the Buckeye COM
pany. 1t will mean that the factory
will run practically the entire year,
completely obviating the necessity of,
closing down for a long period, as has
been the custom. NiFg&ft CtH
The new machine for the gathering
of the corn crop was originated by the
late Hon. Lewis Miller. Since his
death, his successor, MIR. w. A. Noble,
has completely rebuilt the machine and
made 1t a success.
The Buckeye works will begin opera
tions for next seasons. harvest Oct. 8.
Upon that date the factory will start
at its full capacity. No radical changes
are contemplated for the 1901 binder
although few new suggestions viii
be incorporated in the new machine.

Says He Wrote the President, who
Has Failed to Make Any
Reuly.

CHICAGO. Oct. e. - Senator Jones,
chairman of the Democratic national COM
mittee. made the following statement to-
day:
THE instructions given to the commits
sioners on the part OF the United States
to negotiate the treaty with Spain In Paris
In 1898 have never so far as know, been
made public. When the treaty was before
the senate for ratification there was a
great demand that these instructions
should be made public. SO great was the
desire for information that many news
papers published what was claimed TO be
inside information about what these in
structions contained. But for some rea-
son, and doubtless not an unimportant
one. this desire was not gratified.
The president, in his letter of accept
ance, quoted part Of these. as l under
stand. secret Instructions. addressed
him note October calling his attention
to this fact and requesting that fnasmuch
as the part OF the instructions which he
considered favorable to the position Of his
political party was so used by him, the
remainder should be made public.
"Conceiving that II was impossible that
the president of the United States wou
use part OF secret document for the adj
vancement Of his personal fortunes and
al the same time refuse to make public
the remainder OF this document / expect
ed to have prompt answer from the
president. | have now waited for more
than two weeks and have not had the
honor OF an acknowledge even, OF the
receipt OF my note"

II studied with interest what had been

Popullstic legislation there and we found
some legislation to avoid. but we did not
find anything the other way. I have
strong hopes that Nebraska will go Re-

am willing to guarantee that two or three
