Helen Gerrish of Lowell, Ind, 1e fuses Gift of @26O, 900.
 Crown Point (1nd.) Special.
 Because che did not believe she was ela. titled to the money Helen 0erriah oe Lowell tore up a deed by which her uncle. pr. A. A. Gerrish. had turned over 10 her his entire estate, valued at @25O.o pr. Gerrish died at Lowell as the result of worry over money matters today. He was one of the wealthiest men in this vicinity and his fortune was variously es~ tImated at $2OO.0oo and $so0.oO.
 His niece had always been his favorito and the intimates of the doctor had been told by the old man that she would be the heiress of his entire estate. This was regarded by them moro as the expression of the affectfon of the old man than m . serious intention on his part There wer9 six or seven other heirs of tho estates buo among them the old doctors wish was not generally known.
 A week ago, however. pr. Gerrish cara ried out his intention and deeded his ell~ tire property to the girl. notifying the other heirs of his act He brought tho deed to his niece and presented it to her. Expecting to receive the most efeustva thanks for his generous action, what was his surprise when Miss sGerrish. after reading the instrument, cooliy tore 1t into bits remarlxing tht she did not want the estate. x. se
 On being questioned further by hNr uncle she said that she would not accept the property because she had no more right to it than the other heirs and aha considered 1t her duty to see that each received his rightfuI share. Dr. Gerrfsh was staggered by his niece's action and from that moment he began to fail.

large number of wealthy men in New York and in other parts of the country find that while they are still wealthy they have not nearly so much of value In se- curities as they had before. The dechnes have gone on without any interruption m business or a jar in any direction except such as is occasioned by high rates or Interest. The securities themselves which have shrunlxen most are paying precisely the same dividend rates as they did in 1902. If money were not so high the stocks themselves would be on a much higher level.
 In the list of stocks showing heavy shrinkage the shares of the United States Steel Corporation are the most prominent. The two issues. common and preferreo' have lost in value nominally s2z1. GOO The Standard oil Company. too. shows stock depreciation of $7S.0Oo.oOo, and the Northern Securities Company shrinkage of $11s.ES2, 900.
 Bonds Also Decline.
 But it hasn't been stocks alone which have declined Gilt edged bonds like the 1-2 ger cent. issue of the New York Central Railroad Company show large decline. Tn 1909 they sold at 100 1-2. At the low prices this year they were quoted at 96, a drop of B 1-2 points. This decline has been due not to any issuance or se- cur1tteS ahead or Lne leg pCE Scutss ~ has been the small interest return and the high price that has caused investors to sell them and seek more remunera- tive investment. When money lends to railroad companies at 5 1-2 and per cent, as 1t does now, there is no temptation to buy a bond which pays only 1-2 per cent. U. ,
 Morgan Not Tnfallible.-
 One of the interesting groups of sscuri- ties show ing declines is that composed of the stocks and. bonds of the International Mercantile Company. the Northerns secu- rites Company, and the United States Steel Corporation. These three companies were promoted and launched largely by J. P. Morgan. The enormous shrinkage in value of these particulaT securities, de- monstrates that the most conspicuous and conservative financier in the country gets bad bargains. The changes in tlie prices of securities of the companies nam ed in the last year follow:

Committee of the Civic Improvement
League in the rooms of the Provident
Association yesterday afternoon, reports
were read concerning the work of the
various wards Of the city where the ladies'
are endeavoring to assist in securing bet
ter enforcement of sanitary laws.
These reports show that clubs among
the women in the Third and Fourth wards
have been organized. A series of lectures
has been arranged, to be delivered on the
subject of sanitation in the home.
Doctor Kolbenheyer volunteered to as
slst the ladies. He was appointed to in
vesttgate the tenement houses in the Third
Ward, where the tenants are careless with
garbage. 1t Is the intention of the league
to endeavor to impress upon these persons
the necessity for providing receptacles for
their garbage. and to show them the un-
sanitary effects that come from throwing
garbage into the courts of tenement
houses.
The ladies have secured the cooperation
Of property owners in the crowded dis

formation the statement is made to-day
that tho President has directed that a
rigid investigation be made of the charges
contained in the Indictment found by a
Federal Grand Jury against Senator
Dietrich
General Knox to direct District Attorney
summers to push the case and to smother
nothing in the trial of the case.

Draska Senator that ne made the appoint
ment of Postmaster Fisher
1t Is said that District Attorney Sum-
mers last spring had In his possession the
same information upon which the present
Indictment was found, but refused to al
low one to be returned In the hope of
gaining Senator Dietrich's influence for
disappointment, his term having expired
several mouths ago.
Senator Dietrich hoped for the appoint
ment of Il new District Attorney week
ago and one who would be favorable to
him. but 1t was not made. 1t is said no
appointment will now be made until after
the Dietrich case is disposed of.
torney Summers shall not only, try the
case now but that all the details of the
may be brought out He, Of
course. hopes that the Senator may be
but is determined that no
stone shall he left covering up anything
in connection with it.
Senator Dietrich was in conference with
the President this afternoon. but would
not state what conclusions were reached
In respect to his case.
