WOMAN FoReoT TO SWooM TO-DAY
Her Hypnotic Power Has Not Vet Been
Able to Bring Her a Bonds
man for $4,000.

NEW YORK, Dee 10.-Mrs. Chad
wick still languished in the Tombs
this morning, but before the day is
over her lawyer, Philip Carpenter, ex-
pected to deposit $4,000 bail, which
would give the woman her freedom.
After breakfast this morning she read
the discovery that the $5,O0O,O00 Sc
curities held by Banker Reynolds are
worthless. This was the first she
knew of this fact having been made
public. After reading the papers she
paced her cell. Mrs. Chadwick has
quite regained her remarkable nerve.
DR.. Levin, city physician, declared this
morning that the woman is prefectly
sound physically. To the guard be-
fore her cell this morning she said:
We'll, this is the last day of this tor
ture. Thank heaven 1t is practic-
ally certain that Mrs. Chadwick will
not go to Cleveland if she secures bail.
She is under the order of United
States Commissioner Shields to ap-
pear before him one week from today.
1t is learned today that two lawyers.
one from Chicago and one from Phil
adelphia. had an interview with the
prisoner last night. In case she is re-
leased on bail secret service men will
keep a close watch on her movements.
AT II a. m. Attorney Carpenter had
not obtained bail and he seemed to
have lost confidence that the cash
would be forthcoming.
After conference with Mrs. Chad
wick, Attorneys Powers and Carpenter
announced that the prisoner still wish
ed to waive examination here and re-
turn to Cleveland, but she would not
leave before Monday. if then. Her at
torneys have not given up hopes Of
securing bail but still think they can
find bOndsmen.

"Nigger in Woodpile."
There appears to be a general opin-
ion among the open river enthusiasts
in the woodpile" somewhere. and
that there is something behind the
sudden change in the policy of the
Oregon portage commission toward
the Open River association. 1t is hint
ed that the fact that the McCabe Con-
struction company was given the con-
tract for the work was taken up by
the Portland contractors, and as a re-
suit the effort to cause a delay has
resulted through their solicitation. 1t
is known that after it had been an
nounced that the McCabe company
was to do the work, the Portland con-
tractors raised an objection and
through the Portland newspapers
claimed that they had not been given
an equal show with the Tacoma firm.
This was fully answered in a state
ment from Dr. Blalock which was
printed in the Evening Statesman at
the time. One of the gentlemen who
contributed to the Walla Walla county
fund said this morning that it looked
to him as thought the attempt to hold
up the matter was made purely in
the interest of the Portland contract
