CLEVELAND, O., oNv. 29.-The
hearing set for today of the case Of
Newton VS.. Chadwick wherein appli-
cation was made for Mrs. Chadwick's
securities. was continued until Thurs
day morning. The continuance was
the result of a mutual agreement Of
attorneys. The mysterious note for
$500, 900 mentioned in the petition Of
Herbert Newton, the Boston banker
$190,SO0, is now alleged to be signed
by Andrew Carnegie, Attorney Ryan,

From the publicity attached to the
filing of the suit, however, has devel-
oped the life story of the woman in
the case who is represented by the
Cleveland press as having been arrest
ed for forgery when she was 21 and
released in 1893. She met and married
Dr. Chadwick seven years ago and
since that time has been a disting-
uished social leader, not only in Cleve-
land, but throughout the middle west.
Mrs. Chadwick, through her son,
Emil H. Chadwick, denies absolutely
the stories being circulated concern
ing her.. The Cleveland Press set forth
with force and directness the allega-
tions that Mrs. Chadwick is none 9TH

prominence and whose departure was
regarded with thankfulness by many
wives The, hearing of the case PROM
