4 Million. Please. for Helping Mr.. Hoadley
Make Five Millions.

A writ of attachment was obtained yes
terday from Justice Fitzgerald Of the
Supreme Court against the International
Power Company in a suit brought by John
F, Plummer to recover 81 600 900 for breach
of contract. In the service of the writ
cash belonging to the International Power
Company on deposit in the National City
Bank and in the Chemical National Bank
and the company's stock in the American
Locomotive Company, amounting to more
than 81. 600 CO., were attached.
Mr.. Plummer's claim is that Joseph II .
Hoadley, the president Of the International
Power Company. and acting az its agent
promised him 81 100000 if no would get
enough money TO finance the American
Locomotive Company. Plummer alleges
that he had Mr.. Hoadley introduced TO
George r. Sheldon. who formed an UNDER
writing syndicate, which financed the Ameri-
can Locomotive Company, and that Mr.
Hoadley boasts of having made bstween
s. 600 900 and S7,OOO,OO out of the deal
Mr.. Plummer further says that h. should
but that the International Power Company
has been putting him of with specious
promises and he has seen no money.
His attorneys ara Dos Passos Bros. of

B. MIR. Hoadley says that the allegations of
! the complaint are incorrect, that he re-
| fused To have dealings with Pummer.
that the International Power Company
! never had any connection with Plummer

! negotiated with Plummer in any way.

COINED GOLD ~ THE TREASURY
Director Of the Mint says II Now Amounts

recommendation is made on the ground
that the capacity Of the mnts AT San Fran
ci~co ard Philadelphia. and Of the new mint
about to be opened. at Denver, are gu fficient
to meet all the requirements Of the Govern
ment
The number Of pieces 80 money coined
at the several mints las, year has never
been exceeded in I he history of tho country,
bu, the aggregate value ~ the coinage de-
clined from sI36,s4O1sl in the fiscal year
1901 To &84,526, 67s in the last fiscal year
The coinage of 100000 silver dollars per
month, now required by law. will soon
come to an end by reason Of the exhaustion
Of the stock Of bullion.
The director calls attention To the fact
that tho gold coinage of tho country Is now
entering almost entirely into storage, and
says that the coinage Of the entire annual
deposits IL unnecessary The Treasury now
holds about $500, 100000 Of coined gold
which is probably more than will lie called

Alderman Doull My point /. that the vsiu-
m, ion was Al unfair and unjust one.
Mr. Orwell. the opinions Of property
owners In the district do not coincide with

Edward NJ Shepard said that it seemed
20 him that the only real dispute was over
the labor clauses. In the tunnel, where the
men could work for "A few hours at the most
Underground, the eight hour matter could
have no bearing and therefore II ought 10
be eliminated. A TO the prevailing rate OF
wages the clause simply could not be In
serted. because the Court of Appeals had
held that a city could not insert such a
clause in its contracts. No such clause
ever had been inserted in the hundreds Of
franchises granted by the Aldermen.
MIR Cantor wanted to know if there was
no, si,ch n clause in the Manhattan subway
contract. Mr. Shepard replied that there
was, but that since the decision Of the Court
of Appeals the clause could not be enforced.

Threw II In . Park Lake and Would Have
Jumped In After II, but Was Inter.
rupted-Hospitai Tag on Baby's
Clothing Leads to Mothers Arrest.
The body OF female child few weeks
old was found floating in Swan Lake. In
the lower part Of Central Park, yesterday.
A tag on the baby's clothing showed that
she had been in the Lying-in Hospital at
Second avenue and Seventeenth street.
Detective OLaughlin learned there that
the mother was Rose Quinn. a chamber
maid employed at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
She had gone TO the hospital on Nov. 8,
and the child was born two days later.
OLaughlin arrested the woman last night.
She is 20 years old. and came to this country
from Ireland three years ago.
At the Arsenal in the Park she said at
first that the baby slipped from her arms
into the water as she was crossing the stone
bridge over the lake on Sunday evening:
Later she told Sergt. Corbett that she
had thrown the baby into the water.
when I left the hospital on Sunday
went TO the Founding Asylum at Sixty
eighth street and Third avenue she said
and asked them To take the child, as
could not care for il. They refused and
spoke harshly TO me. ! came to the Park
and as was crossing the bridge just az
dark, something said to me that l should
put the baby and myself in the water:
threw it in and heard the splash l waited
moment and was climbing the stone
parapet to jump in myself just then a
man came along and asked me what / was
going TO do. He talked % me and / changed
my mind about drowning myself. / wish
now had jumped and there would not be
this trouble"
She said that the father Of the child was
a soldier in the Forty-nnth United States
Artillery. who was in Maine the last time
she heard from him. Then he wrote TO her
asking for money.
She was locked up in the Fast Sixty
seventh street station on charge OF homt-
