CLAIMED CARNEGIE AS FATHER.
Banker lri Reynolds Tells How He
Was DuDed. 80


Cleveland, Dec. l3.-lri Reynolds OF
the Wade Park bank has told the story
of how he and other bankers came to
trust Mrs Chadwick.
It was by representing herself to be
the Legitimate daughter of Andrew
Carnegie, the multimllllonaire, accord
ing to Mr.. Reynolds, that Mrs. Chad
wick secured loan bearing the pur-
ported signature OF the steel magnate.
"She told me-" said Mr.. Reynolds,
shat she was the illegitimate daugh-
ter of Andrew Carnegie and I believed
her. I never doubted her story until
on the occasion of my last visit to New
York, when Mr.. Squire came to me
and declared that all the securities she
had given me as the notes of Andrew
Carnegie were worthless. 1t was only
then that doubted her.
Before that I had refused to say
anything about her or her affairs be-
cause deemed it my duty to protect
her in. the story of her birth as she
had given it to me. never once
doubted her until I was shown that
the securities which she gave me were
worthless. After that, of course,
could not believe her any more.
when she told me the story of be-
ing the daughter of Andrew Carnegie
her husband, DIR. Chadwick, was pres
ent and he believed the story as I did.
The stories of her giving large sums
Of money to her husband are false. He

ANOTHER SLUMP In STOCKS
Prices OF Stocks On the New York Stock
Exchange Show General Weakness.

There was lively rebound in prices
of stocks after the liquidation had
spent it's first force. A score of stocks
recovered from l to ~ points from
the lowest. The buying demand
showed no inclination to follow prices
to the higher level and the market
was comparatively quiet by noon, but
the tone continued feverish!
Sentiment exchanged to the extent
that brokers advised their clients to
buy standard stocks. The situation
was reversed insofar that early sellers
were later buyers.
Buying Demand ParaIyzed.
It became evident during the after
noon that the. buying demand for
stocks was practically paralyzed be.
yond the occasional demand to cover
short contracts by traders on the bear
side of the market. The throwing
over of the stocks again became pre-
cipitate, causing rapid decline again in
prices. Amalgamated receded an ex.
treme 81, Colorado Fuel 65s, St. Paul

and Smelling Az, Illinois Central and
Chicago and Northwestern 4, United
States Steel preferred AZ and large
number of stocks 9 points or over.
There was substantial rally on the
Stock Exchange during the last hour
OF trading, which ran to a point or
over generally and reached 21a in Colo
RADIO Fuel, III in Reading and Sugar
and ~ to IL in Amalgamated Cop
per, United States Steel preferred, St.
Paul, Southern Pacific, Union Pacific
and Louisville and Nashville. This
rally was pretty well maintained, al
though the demand dropped to almost
nothing at the recovery, but the sell
Ing pressure was not renewed The
feature of the day was the slump in
Greene Consolidated Copper in the
| curb market, which sold down from
341k to 21A. Northern Securities also
broke points in the curb market.
The final drop in Amalgamated Cop
per to 61k made the closing weak and
generally at about the lowest.
