Elihu w. Quarels.

The funeral services of E. w.
Quarels were held last Sunday, at
1880 O'Clock, from the Presbyterian
church, and were largely attended
by the friends of the deceased. The
members of the Knights of Pythias
and Masonic orders attended in a
body, and acted as guard of honor,
as the remains were taken from the
family residence to the church.
Rev. w. G. M. Hays conducted the
services.
Elihu w. Quarels was born in
Morristown, Tennessee, on May 10,
1867, being 81 years, 6 months and
20 days of age. He came to Pull
man five years ago, as agent of the
O. R. & N. Co., but later resigned
from this duty to enter a mercan-
tile life, when he purchased an in
terest with the Pullman Hardware
Co., of which institution he was
manager at the time of his death.
He leaves a wife and two little
daughters to mourn the loss of a
most kind and loving husband and
father. His friends were as numer-
Gus as his acquaintance, as to know
him was to admire his pleasant
companionship and gentle qualities.

j. Whitaker Wright, London's Famous SpeCu-

Receiving Seven Years Sentence.

LONDON. Jan. 26-Death today de-
frauded the felOn's cell of an occu-
pant when J. WHITAKER Wright, the
brains and head Of the London and
Globe Corporation and numerous other
financial schemes. dropped dead from
heart failure an hour after being SEN
fenced TO seven years penal servitude
for fraud
/ Wright has been on trial in the King
bench court for twelve days past. This
afternoon the jury retired, and shortly
afterwarG returned verdict of guilty
When the verdict had been announced
the judge called the prisoner to the
bar End sentenced HIM 20 seven years
penal servitude. In imposing sentence,
the judge said:
Il cannot conceive of a worse case
than that OF this defendant. 1 feel
must visit on him the severest punish
ment allowed
Wright showed no signs OF weakness
or illness when standing to receive SEN
tence. but in a cool manner, said:
'Ail I can say is L am as innocent Of
any intention TO deceive as anyone in

Consulted With Lawyer.
After sentence was pronounced Wright
went into the consultation room with his
solicitor He had been talking for about
twenty minutes with his lawyer. when
suddenly he arose from his chair and
fell unconscious. DR.. Atkie was imme-
diately summoned from Kings College
Hospital. He hurried 70 the side Of the
sick man and finding his condition Sc

the latter arrived, however, the stethe-

as Wright died in a government build

Rumor of Suicide.
When the report of his death was sent
around belief some way gained ground
that the financier had committed sui
eide. This, however. seems to have been
without foundation. as the doctors at
Kings College Hospital intimated
strongly that heart failure alone was
the cause. Death from this cause was
hardly surprising in the case of Wright.

The quick sequence Of events-frst,

A news agency discredited the report
OF Wrighrs death and for little time
lessened the intensity of interest: but
the official announcement came from
the hospital that he was in reality dead
and the sale Of papers again became tre-

.DILLER GROFF'S
STATEMENT HITS
DEFENSE HARD
Had No Associates or Partners in Man
ufdGture of Fasteners.
Defendant in Postoffice Conspiracy Case, How
ever, Swears He Had Never Read a Word
on Pages That Bear His Initials

Protests and objections We're unavail-
ing to keep from the jury this morn
ing the statement of DilIer B. Groff
that he had no associates or partners
in the manufacture Of his fasteners ex-
cept his brother, the iaventor. 1t was
an important victory Tor the prosecu-
ton in the twelfth day of the trial OF
d. 3. and S. a. Croft, a. w. Machen.
and George z. and Mrs. Lorenz. on tire
charge of having conspired TO deFraud
the Government in the sale of letter
box fasteners.
Diller Croft went on the stand and
swore positively that ~ had not read a
word of the statement which bore his
initials on each page He said the day
the inspectors called on him he was III
as the result Of insomnia, and wanted
them To call again. but they insisted
that he submit to Interrogation at once
He in no way explained why he had
signed without reading such an impor-
tant document
A Subsequent Statement.
Reference was made by the prosecu-
tiOn TO a subsequent statement In which
Diller Groff substantiated all he said
in the first one. He said the substanti-
said they would obtain for him the
$4,000 which the Government still owes
the brothers for the fasteners. would
guarantee him immunity from prosecc-
ton and would put him in the Govern
ment bandwagon."
Inspectors Rolfe and Thorpe denied
the statements OF Grof, saying that
he had persona ly read the statement
before signing it and knew what he was
doing They also thought he was in
pretty good health that day. William
Thomas. friend of Croft. who was in
the sffice when the inspectors called,
said the latter acted in a threatening
manner and rather intimidated Croft
The inspectors said TO the best OF their
recollection they did not begin TO in
terrogate Grof until Thomas left the
room.
Name 'Machen" Scratched.
When the statement was finally ad-
mitted. Mr.. Maddox pointed out to the
jury that part Of the name Machen had
been scratched with a knife. and want
ed Inspector Rolfe to say that the name
should have been made Marsh This he
refused TO do.
The interviews with Groff obtained by
the inspectors were for the purpose OF
fOrestallng a line OF defense which
would show that there were legitimate
business transactions between the de-
PENDANTS which accounted for the pas
sage OF money between them every time
the Groffs received payment from the
Government for a consignment OF fast
enerE.
