boil weevil convention at Shreveport
to which he is a delegate from this

DR.. Lovett says he will present a

suggest that all planting of cotton in
the infected territory be stopped for five
years and that the farmers plant their
lands in other crops which the wee

Beckwlth's Startling Confession.

New York, Dec. 10.-Fretted by pris-
on restrain, apparently almost friend
illness and unable to secure bail for
only SIS 900, Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick
is expected to decide today whether
she VIII go voluntarily to Cleveland
to meet her accusers or to begin the
long legal battle in prospect in New
York city.
Yesterday, irritated by the failure
of her counsel to secure bail for her,
Mrs. Chadwick was determined to go to
Ohio and only consented to postpone
her start until today on the urgent
advise of her attorneys. 1t is her be-
lief that it will be easier for her to
secure bail in Cleveland. If she elects
to remain in New York and contest
the efforts of federal authorities to
take her to Ohio, it is probable that
she will have to face Andrew Carne-
gle whose name was signed to the
notes held in Ohio as security for
loans
Mrs. Chadwick said yesterday that
she was no use to get in Cleveland
in time to secure her release on bail
before Sunday. If she were to start
today she might be compelled to wait
until Monday, even If a bondsman
awaited her in the Ohio city
During the night two special deliv.
cry letters and four kilograms arrived
at the Tombs prison for her, but were
not delivered, as she had requested
that she be not disturbed.

The mysterious Securities" held in
trust by Reynolds, concerning which
there has been so much futile specu-

sists of the following items.
First, a note for Blume, bearing the
signature of Andrew Carnegie.
Second, a certificate OF trusteeship
which states that Andrew Carnegie
has in his possession bonds total
amount of $7,500,000 held by him in
trust form. ms paper also uSaIS
the signature of Mr.. Carnegie.
These securities, supposed to repre-.
sent the vast amount Of $12,500 900
have been for the past three years
the principal basis on which Mrs.
Chadwick has conducted her financial
system and on which she has borrowed
sums, which. it is discerned, run up
to millions.
"And these same securities are the
rock which wrecked the Oberlin bank
and caused the ruin Of hundreds OF
families, and losses to business men
almost without number.
"Iri Reynolds after his long course
Of faithful guardianship for the wo.
man whom he trusted, now considers
himself a dupe. 1t is said as fact,
that Reynolds loaned Mrs. Chadwick
practically all the money he possessed.

states the securities held by Andrew
Carnegie for Mrs. Chadwick consist
of United States Steel bonds, Central
stock Consolidated and Northwestern
Railway stock in England, the three
aggregating as above stated, $500. 900.
To briefly state the fact, the great
Chadwick trouble has burst. Unless
help should arrive from some now I'm.

source. She must now face the strain
that has been steadily growing in In
