wick, who had previously been informed
Of his indictment and probable arrest,
consented to return to Cleveland with
out formality. DR.. Chadwick said to
the Associated Press:
- am lnexpresslbly shocked by the
recent turn Of events. l am innocent
with pride to a hirtyfve-year resi-
dence in Cleveland. I cannot believe
that the dreadful things printed by the
papers are true. l am entirely without
information as to the case except what

been good enough to tell me. So l can

against my WIFE,

Mrs. Chadwick Measured.
DR.. Chadwick read the Associated
Press dispatch from Cleveland that
Mrs. Chadwick had been measured by
the Bertillon system; AS he finished the
reading he groaned aloud and as he
turned to the correspondent, tears
rolled down his cheeks. He said
That is the last straw, measuring
her in that way. Oh, that am brought
to this. You tell me that my friend,
Mr.. Barry is here to take me back.
Well, L am ready to go and shall be
happy to accompany him. But this is
different homecoming than antici-
pated. I knew / should find troubles
and breakers ahead, but. I never for a
moment anticipated arrest. Guilty9 OF
course I'm not guilty. L am absolutely
innocent. And you say poor old Beck
with is very i'll. Poor man. IL know
him but little, but L am sure he is IN
nOcent. -
The. correspondent then told DR..
Chadwick of the statement that has
been made that Mrs Chadwick is be-
lieved to be Nine .Devere. The physician
fell back as if stunned.

"Do you think Mrs. Chadwick can
be guilty as accused?' was asked

thing. I do not know the charges, but
she cannot be guilty.
Asked about his financial resources
he said:
