MRS. MAVERICK RICH
Will Be Heir to $7,OOO,OOO
When She Leaves Prison.

NEW YORK. Sept. 25.-According to
Decker, today Mrs. Florence Maybrick,
when she comes out of prison in Eng
land will be heir to about $7,000,0O0
While her mother, the Baroness de
-Rouques, lives Mrs. Maybrick will be
dependent on her bounty, as this es-
tate must be held together; but on her
death 1t will become the property, out
right, of Mrs. Maybrick
The hearing that was to have been
held today before Referee John H.
Judge, at No. 29 Broadway, was post
poned until Oct. 6 to ask an accounting
of the two trustees Of her grandfather's
estate. It was expected that something
like $4,000 would be recovered by
these proceedings, and the general i'm
preston was that this would be all that
the Baroness de Rouques and Mrs.
Maybrick had left after the tremen-
douS expense the mother had gone to
to free her daughter.
The statement of Mr.. Decker, there
fore, created surprise.
I'VE have already recovered a good
part of the lands in Virginia" said Mr..
Decker, because they were decided
away without proper authority. Darius
..
grandfather. owned immense tracts
there and in West Virginia, and we
have recently found that he also own
ed valuable property on Fourteenth
street, near Broadway, this city.
Darius Blake Holbrook was associ-
ated with Cyrus Field in the laying Of
the transatlantic cable, and when he
died was one Of the richest men in the
South. He left his entire fortune to his
daughter, who was then married to
William H. Chandler. with the rever-
sionary interest to her daughter, who
grew up and married James Maybrick,
of Norfolk, Va, and Liverpool, England.
For the murder of her husband Mrs
Maybrick was sentenced to death,
which sentence was afterward COM
muted to Imprisonment. 1t was an
nounced short time ago that Mrs.
Maybrick would be released from
prison in 1904.

CORRUPTION IS
DUG Up IN DETROIT
Six Officials Are Indicted
on Charges of Defrauding
the City.

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 25.-Six in
dictments We're returned this afternoon
by the grand jury, which has been in
vestigating municipal affairs, and par
ticularly of public works, for the last
two months. Five of them were made
public in court and they name the fol-
lowing: D. W. H. Moreland, former
commissioner of public works, recently
removed from office by the council;
Herman Wartell and T. j. White, for
mer employees of the public works de-
partment under Moreland; John Hook,
a former department of works employe
and contractor; Henry Meridian, a con-
tractor, and his associate Robert Con-
way.
Moreland is named in each of the five
indictments read in court this after
noon. Two of the indictments charge
him with conspiracy to defraud, and
the other three with misappropriation
and converting property of the city to
the use of others. In the first of the
indictments alleging conspiracy, it is
charged that Moreland Meridian, Con-
way, Wartell and White conspired in
March, 1902 to defraud the city of
$1,000 through the pay rolls of the de-
partment of public works for street
sweeping and teaming, and in the Sec
OIu, that MOTeldHU, W1In WdfI6ll,
White and Hook, conspired in the same
month to defraud the city out of $1,000
through street sweeping and teaming
bills.
The other three indictments charge
MOreland, under a special statute, with
converting 1,735 feet of Medina curb
stone, valued at $500, to Thomas ].
Kennedy; with converting 1852 cubic
yards of sand, worth $500, to Henry
Meridian & Co., and with converting 400
yards Of crushed stone. worth $409, to
John Archer and John Hook. The sixth
Indictment was not read in court, and
Prosecutor Hunt declined to state to-
night whether or not 1t named any
persons mentioned in the other five.
Mr. Moreland came into court this
evening and when asked to plead stood
mute on advice of his attorney. The
judge, accordingly, entered a plea of
not guilty and fixed Mr.. Moreland's bail
on all five indictments at $4,000. 1t
was given. John Hook was also in
court and gave $500 bail Warrants
for the arrest of the other indicted men
were issued and placed in the hands of
the sheriff. None of them has yet been
arrested. Henry Meridian is ill at his
home and will be unable to be arraign-
ed in court.

MILLERS REFUSE
TO ARBITRATE
Declare Ultlmatum In Letter to
Mayor = Employ ''U" Stu.
dents in Strikers Places,

The solution of the big milling strike
resolves itself into the possibility of the
millers securing men to take the strik-
ers' places. There is no doubt that they
mean to endeavor to replace the strik-
ers with new set of men, no matter
what the cost for the present
The latest confirmation of this atti-
tude is In letter from the millers ad-
dressed last night to Mayor Haynes.
The mayor, in response to the re-
quest of a delegation representing the
strikers, had written the millers urging
them to accept a settlement by arbitra-
ton. The strikers had offered to leave
the reasonableness of their demand for
an eight-hour day for the flour leaders
to committee Of five representative
citizens to be appointed by the mayor,
and he wrote the millers:
TO my mind this offer is strickly in
line with the modern and wholesome
tendency to adjust all disputes through
the rational medium of conciliation rath-
er than by forceful means.
This is especially true as applied to
vast business industries such as your
own, the prolonged cessation of which
necessarily entails so much distress and
loss upon the various other business in
terests. OF the city as well as upon the
many families directly concerned
while l feel that your acceptance will
impose a somewhat delicate task upon
myself still. I sincerely trust that you
may see your way clear to accept, and
thus prevent what may otherwise prove q

STOCK MARKFT SHOWS 4
MUCH IMPROVEMENT /
But United States Steel Con.
tlnues Weak, Without Any
Adequate Explanation.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The stock
market as a whole showed very decid-
ed improvement at today's close and
sentiment was apparently more cheer
full. Nevertheless, the same influences
that have made more directly for lower
prices during the past few months were
again in evidence-namely, the extreme
weakness of United States Steel issues.
The common and preferred shares, as
we'll as the per cent bonds, began the
day with new low records, recovered
in part on good support and in the
early afternoon burst wide open" on
a fresh bear raid. In the final deal
lngs, while the balance of the list was
showing a very firm undertone, an
other attack on the steel issues oc-
Cured and the stocks closed with net
losses of 3s and 1 per cent for the
common and preferred, respectively,
while the bonds closed at Tx after
touching a new low record of 70M.
Dealings in steel were enormous, to-
tai sales aggregating over 900
shares, about one-fifth Of the days
business. These stocks were offered in
big lots throughout the day. Trading
in the bonds was also in tremendous
volume and completely oVershadoWed
all other issues in the bond list.
No particular reason can be advanc-
ed for the continued weakness of the
steel securities, aside from general dis
trust regarding conditions in the in
duStrial world and the apparent lack
of support, except at critical periods

SETS GROSSCUP RUMOR
COMPLETELY AT REST
Northern Securities Official Says coun-
selship Has Not Been Offered to
Judge.

A report has been persistently circu-
lated in and out of Chicago to the effect
that Judge Peter S. Grosscup, of the
United States circuit court, has been
offered the place of counsel for the
Northern Securities company. The ru-
NOR was not verified in Chicago and no
reason could be assigned for its spread.
1t was stated on the authority of a
high official of the Northern Securities
company last night that there was no
possible foundation for the rumor. The
place had not been offered to Judge
Grosscup and there was no ground
whatever for the story.
"As a general thing we pay no atten-
ton to these rumors," said this official,
but this is case where justice to
Judge Grosscup demands that an ex-
plicit denial should be made and the
story set at rest. 1t is utterly base

A young man Of twenty-five, recently
a university student, is at the head of
the strike of the flour mill employees of
Minneapolis.
Not that he called the strike, or had
more to do with its inception than 9TH
ers, but as president of the union he is
looked upon as the leader.
1t is position of grave responsible
ity. The strike, which involves the
shutting down of seventeen flour mills
which annually produce one-sixth Of
the flour product of the United States,
If long continued, must have marked
influence upon the worlds food supply.
Over 1900 men are out Of employ
ment and the livelihood of 5000 others
will be indirectly affected, while the
proprietors of the great mills that are
accustomed to grind $4,000 barrels of
