WAS A wATcHMAKER.
Morgan Left Elgin, H., for Florida
 Two Years Ago.

Elgin, Ill. April 24.-Rowland l.. Mor- gan, of Elgin. who died suddenly on Mon day, at his country home near Pensacola, Fla, after eating breakfast food from an original package received by mall, for many years was an employe of the Elgin watch factory, and left Elgin about two years ago for Florida. He secured a tract of land of thirty acres on the island of Santa Rosa, few miles from Pensa- cola, where he managed a summer and winter hotel.
 Since leaving Elein he had returned only once, when 1t was to answer indict- ments brought by the grand jury on the charge of forging the name of the Re- corder of Cook County These charges, five in number never came to trial and were quashed on the statute of limita- tions. The indictment grew out of a real estate transaction of property In Elgin, just outside the Cook County line.
 MT. Morgan at one time owned con- siderable property in Elgin, but he dis posed of everything, including fine home, before he left for the South.
 Reports have reached here during the last year that Morgan and his partner in business at Santa Rosa, a Colonel Tar bele, were at swords points. It Is as- serted the former secured possession of all the property in some way and had it recorded in his wifes name. His rela- tives knew of no one who would wish Morgan's death. Owing to his alleged questionable business dealings, he had many enemies, 1t is alleged.

SEVERE BLOW
 TO DEFENSE Vaughan Flatly Contra
 diets Howard. CASE IS NEARING AN END Will Go to the JuryNext Tues~ day or Wednesday. Triplstt swears Howard Was uut IT Hotel omcs when Hsws oa
 the Killing of 0osssl
 Was Received.
CASE IS NEARING AN END

Frankfort Ky. April A.--In tho tf1as of James Howard today. Dan vsughAn testified that he was sick in bed on thu day that Goebei was killed and was not on the street at all. This was hard blow to the defense as Howard in his tee timony told of seeing vaughan on tho street just before Goebel was shot. Au- other witness for the defense had ssid that he saw Vaughan that day and point ed him out to Howard.
 The defense closed its direct evidence ak the morning session and the remainder of the day was devoted to rebuttal testt- mony. The remainder of the evidences will be heard tomorrow and the case wilI so to the jury Tuesday or Wednesday. Twenty-fve or thirty witnesses were heard today.
 N. H. witherspoon, Youtsey's brcther- in-law. did not respond when called The failure Of Mrs. Youtsey to testify prob ably accounted for his absence.
 Robert Triplett and Daniel vaughan were probably the most important witt nesses of the day. Triplett corroboratod Hotel Keeper Pence, who swore that Howard was not in his office when the news came that Goebal was killed.
 The investigation into the alleged riflinq of United States mall either here e elsewhere resulted today in the arrival here of Postoffice Inspectors Baxley of Philadelphia and Kile of Louisville, who will assist Inspector Craighead of czn- cinnati, who Is already here. They arc working on the complaint which is said to have been filed by Postmaster l.. F. Sinclair of Georgetown.

SMUGGLING CASES SETTLED.
Hord is Asked to Resign Because Hs
 Instigated Prosecution.

San Juan, F. R.. April 2A--A settlement of the smugglinug cases has been effected by Treasurer wifioaghby. He has rscom- mended Attorney General Harlan that the case be dismissed from the district court. This has been done. The amount of the fines imposed is not known.
 John s. Hord, chief of the bureau of internal revenue. was asked to resign hls office because he instituted the prosacu- tion against those persons charged with smuggling without the authority Of Treasurer Willoughby. MT. Wtiloughhy said to representative of the Associated Press today:
 MT. Hord rendered his resignation ou April 22. the day after my return from Mayaguese. It was accepted by me and MT. Hord's participation in the work of the Treasury Department will cease April 30 This action arises from the fact that Mir. Hord. during my absence, caused information to be filed before e justice of the peace against Commander Mentx and others absolutely without my knowl- edge or authority to do so and without consulting in any way myself, and I could easily have been reached by tele- graph or the assistant treasurer who waa in charge of the department during my a absence.

ment. Meantime there is no change In the attitude of the leading Southern sell CTS, though in the Central West some of fers by Northern furnaces are reported below the $21 basis for No. foundry. which has generally obtained in recent months on second half deliveries. Pitts burg reports a sale of 10000 tons of Bes- semer iron for the second half at s1s.s5 valley furnace. or s20.50 Pittsburg. Iron is freely offered at $ly.75 at furnace for this delivery.
 There Is good inquiry for steel but following the Pittsburg sales of domes- tis steel reported a week ago, the market has been rather quieter. Sales of 1000 tons of Bessemer billets, deliveries run ming to September. are reported at $so.5O. Youngstown.
 Independent sheet and tin plate works have been buyers of domestic steel in the past few weeks and inquiries for foreign steel are pending, German mills quoting $29 at Eastern ports for i.essemer basic. Deliveries cannot be had. however, for from three to six moaths.
 The project to combine independent sheet mills in the Central West is still being worked on, options running to Sep- tember. Expected buying of bars by ag- ricultural implement works has not mate rialized and the disposition of some of these buyers Is to await developments.

 JUNGLE TOMS CABIN" Superintendent of Public School Libraries Leland Bars It from

New York. April 24.-(Special.) )-"Uncle Toms Cabin is on the black list. The new superintendent of public school libra r,es, Ciaud c. Leland, will not place it on the list of books 10 be used in the cIass libraries shortly to be established in the public schools.
 This announcement caused no little dis cussion among the members of the Board of Education, so a vote was taken today, resulting m tie, and Leland was sustained.
 The book, therefore, will be barred from circulation as far as the Board ot education IS concerned.
 The reason given by Leland is that, in his opinion. the book is not of such a character that it should be placed on the list which he has In preparation

THE METAL MARKET.
Review of Week by the Iron Trade
 RAview

Cleveland. O.. April A-The Iron Trade Review, discussing market conditions in its current issue, says:
 Yielding prices for foundry and steel making pig irons are in evidence, though without any considerable response as yet from buyers. Finished lines share to a greater extent than for weeks in the &C., tivity in pig iron. yet mills are in the main too far sold up cn important pro- ducts to warrant ihe expectation of any material changes in prices this year. Lit tie willingness Is shown by consumers of foundry iron to place orders for the second half and while the position of the furnaces is that buying must soon set in. since only about two months remain on present contracts, there is no assur- ance that the commitments will be for a period of months. The market is in such shape that there $ no incentive to buy for six months. unless under guaranty against decline.
 It Is reported that the quotation of $l6.5o Birmingham, on Eastern shipments of No. foundry. as made by the asso- eiation furnaces, has been made in Cen tral and Western shipments in the past week by sellers not included in the agree

 The presence of the robbers was first discovered by a woman. She screamed and the people in the waiting room gathered around. Investigation proved that majority of them had been robbed. The confusion permitted the robbers to escape.
 Later they made their presence known on board an immigrant sleeper, where the conductor and porter. together with the passengers, were herded into one end of the car and the search instituted by ne man. while the others held the crowd back with guns.

LEE BEFORE GRAND JURY.
Says His Resignation is in the Hands
 of Crow.

St. Louis. April A-Lieutenant Gov ernor Lee says the question of his resg- nation is in the hands of Attorney Gen eral Crow and that he will probably act as that officer recommends Mir. Lee says, however. that his reasons for wish ing to retain his office. One of these, he says. Is the fact that he is a poor man and needs the salary attached to the office. The Lieutenant Governor was be- fore the St. Louis grand jury an hour and fifteen minutes. He was expected to testify especially as to the q. 900 given him as brlbe money by D. J. Kelley, the iegis- latlve agent of the baking powder trust.
 Lieutenant Governor Lee will appear before the grand jury again on Monday. The two grand Juries, that of Jefferson City and that of St. Louis will convene in St. Louis on Monday and take up the poodle hearing simultaneously. 1t Is said that both sessions will be of great i'm pOrtance and that informations or bench warrants may follow. The evidence given by Lieutenant Governor Lee to the grand jury today. 1t Is said did not in any way suffice to bring to light all that he Is supposed to know.

any information you may desire to fur nish him.
 Mir. Barrett's letter today says:
 "On March 27 I immediately called upon Mir. Bristow and stated to him that if the Postofiice Department had any charges against me of any character whatever, that I was anxious and ready to meet the same and would put at his disposal any. information or papers in my possession.
 MT. Bristow told me that If any in- formation in his possession reflected upon me, l would be communicated with, and given full opportunity to answer the same. Since that time have heard noth- ing more of the matter at issue When the time arrives will show to the sat- isfaction of all honest people that the charge and insinuations that have been made refiecting on myself in my dealings with the Postoffce Department are false. My record in the four years that I serv- cd as the Assistant Attorney of the Post office Department is known to those with whom I was associated during my time of service and that 1 served the Govern ment faithfully and honestly can be es- tablished by abundance of proof"
