Two MEN
IN DEATH
COMPACT
One Ends Life, but
the Other Is
Revived.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2s-Orista 8.
Weed, said to be interested in the man
ufacture OF gas meters in Boston. died
in hospital here to-day Of morphine
poisoning. Weed and a companion
named Benjamin j. Riley of Springfield,
Mass, were taken to the hospital from
the Grand Union Hotel. Both were suf-
fering from the effects of the drug.
Weed died without having recovered
consciousness. Riley was soon revived.
In a statement made tonight to the
Coroner, Riley said that he and Weed
had entered into suicide pact and
that they came to this city from Bos-
ton on Sunday with the intention of
committing suicide together in the
hotel.
Dispatches from Boston and Provi-
dence show that Weed was highly con-
nected. The wife of former Governor
Sprague of Rhode Island was his sister.
Another sister is the widow of the late
Colonel Wheaton of Washington. Weed
is reputed to have been wealthy. He
left wife and two young children.
Weed was about 80 years Of age and
Riley is %. The latter says he is a
bank clerk.
Riley said they had been chums since
childhood. Both had met with reverses.
and while discussing their i'll success in
Boston last Sunday they decided TO
commit suicide together.

MURDER
OF LEWIS
METCALF
Wife Is Arrested ON
Suspicion Of
Crime.

Lewis Metcalf, photographer, was
found dead in his room at 2219 Seventh
street, shortly before o'clock this
morning. The police arrested his wife
and locked Her up in the City Hall sta
ton on suspicion of having committed
the murder. She denies all knowledge
Of it, though her clothing and hands
are bloodstained.
People across the hallway from the
Metcalfs heard the pair quarreling, and
a moment later a pistol shot rang out
When the roomers reached Metcalfs
apartment they found him lying on the
floor dead in pool of blood, with a bull
let In his heart. Mrs. Metcalf had gone
into another room, and was found there
by the police.
Tightly clutched in Metcalfs right
hand was a cluster OF hair resembling
in color his wife's. This adds to the
belief that the woman killed her hus-
band. The pair had been drinking
heavily all night and are supposed to
have indulged in several quarrels.
Philip Hammond who occupied the
adjoining room to the Metcalfs said
he heard a shot fired and rushed into
the room to find Metcalf dead.
Metcalf was sued for divorce by his
wife about one year ago.

Mrs. Elliott's voice quivered and her
eyes were filed with tears.

Will Be Sent to

Tells a Friend He Has Ab-
SOlutely No Connection
With the Case.
Interested Only Because His Name Was
Used in the Great Financial
Frauds.
Special Dispatch to The Call

PITTSBURG, Dec. 2S.-Andrew Car
negie is of the opinion that Mrs. Cassie
L. Chadwick, the now notorious Cleve-
land swindler, will pass long term in
the penitentiary. He expressed this
opinion to Director E. NJ. Bigelow Of
the department of public works. who
discussed the Chadwick case with the
multi millionaire last week. The Pitts
burg philanthropist, who has been
reading of the womans vast financial
operations is amazed at the success of
her plans.
Mr.. Carnegie believes the woman
has reached the end of her rope and
/ that she will have to undergo impris-
onment in the penitentiary," said Di-
rector Bigelow to-day. We discussed
the case at length. There is nothing in
any of those stories connecting Mr..
/ Carnegie's name with the woman. He
/ is in no way concerned and is inter
/ ested solely because his name was used
4 by persons in the great financial
/ scheme.
! CLEVELAND. Dec. 2S.-A syndicate,
for which Attorney Andrew S. Quigley
of Cleveland is spokesman. is said to
/ be ready and willing to supply bail up
to the sum of $4,000 TO obtain the re-
lease of Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick, held
in jail here awaiting trial on the charge
of forgery Attorney Quigley would
rot give the names of the prospective
bondsnen of Mrs. Chadwick. but said
that they We're we'll able to advance
any reasonable sum of money required
If Mrs Chadwick were permitted to go
out on bail.
/ The Federal authorities are said to
be not in favor of giving Mrs. Chad
wick her freedom, and will it is under
stood discourage such a proceeding,
without, however, infringing on the
prisoners constitutional rights.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-It is probable
that the Hamburg American line
steamship Pretoria, with DR.. Leroy S.
Chadwick on board will not reach this
port until tomorrow, or possibly Fri
day. She was due to arrive at New
York to-day. The delay is owing to
the unusually heavy weather reported
by all incoming steamships.
When the Pretoria docks DR.. Chad
wick will be served with summons in
a suit brought by Herbert D. Newton
of Boston to recover $4,000 on two
notes now overdue. 1t was understood
to-day that number of Sheriffs from
other States are in the city for the pur-
pose of endeavoring to arrest DR.. Chad
wick and serve papers on him prelim-
mary to securing his extradition.

PREDICTS BISHOPS FALL.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2S.-Rev.
william S. Price, the venerable ex-
chancellor Of the Episcopal diocese of
Pennsylvania, who drew up the crigi-
nal presentment against Bishop Talbot,
said to-day:
Talbot. 1 am afraid, is done for. He
has reached his end as Bishop. The
charges which have been preferred
against him are the most sensational
that / ever heard of being made against
a Bishop
There will be no hearing of the
charges against Bishop Talbot by the
court recently appointed by Bishop
Tuttle, according TO churchmen who
are well posted in the canonical laws
Of the Episcopal church A complica-
ton has developed which they say will
put a stop effectually TO the proceed
ings Of the court of inquiry as now
constituted.
The trouble comes from a recent
change in the canons Of the church re-
garding the appointment of a court of
that nature. The first intimation of the
trouble comes in the shape of an edi-
forial in the Church Standard, the old
est organ Of the church in this country.
MAKES PLAIN THE ERROR.
In the issue of the Standard which
VIII appear tomorrow Rev. DR.. John
Fulton, the editor, will say in reference
to the Irvine-Talbot case that the pre-
siding Bishop has constituted the board
Of inquiry under a canon which was
superseded by a new canon of the late
general convention. The new canon
wifi go into operation on January l.,
1905.
The board Of inquiry is called to meet
on January TO- and when It does meet
on that day it will not be constituted
as the new canon requires. Therefore
. ii will have no power to proceed with
the inquiry fer which IL is called
Men versed in church law say the
only course open is to let the present
court meet on the date named. 1t can
then decide that it no longer has juris-
dtction and refer the case back to
Bishop Tuttle, the presiding Bishop,
for further action.
The mistake or oversight arose, II
IS said. because the movement to pro-
cure a presentment against Bishop Tai
bot was begun last August and those
who had il in hand failed to take cog
nizance of the change in the canonical
law when it was made at the last gen.
eral convention.
