 He knew everything tha. the firm did, and l consulted him constantly about the firms and my own financial affairs. Be- fore l went abroad last summer I gave MT. Hawley s125,000. In September of last year he conducted the sale of about $6OO, 600 in securities for Mrs. Sully."

TITLE TO PARK
 IS QUESTIONED
LAND 5EouEATHED TO CITY OF NATcHEz ON THE CONDITION THAT IT ALWAYS BE USED AS BURNING GROUND.

New Orleans, January 1s.--The right Of the city of Natchez, Miss. to convert a cemetery Into a public park was question ed here today in the case of Thornton, ct als. vs. the City of Natchez, argued be- fore Judges Parlange, Mccormick and Shelby in the United States court of ap- peals.
 The ground was donated to the city for burial purposes in 1917 by William Rutherford and John B. McNeil, wealthy merchants. One of the conditions was that 1t be forever used as burial ground.
 In 1890 the dead were unearthed and moved together with coffins and tomb stones to another part of the city and the cemetery was turned Into a park. In or dlr to maintain it's identity as burial ground the authorities made hole in. one corner of the park, put the bones of many of the dead into 1t and erected a mound over them. Elizabeth Rutherford Thorn ton and NJ E. Thornton, the heirs, now claim the city has lost the title to the property.

 MT Teller said that if we were to have any canal 1t should be a tide water canal. While he did not favor canal, he did not intend to obstruct the enterprise, be- cause he thought the people of the coun- try wanted it.
 If, however, we were to enter on the project, he said. we should do so with clean hands and a proper sense of the rights of others. We should not secure a right of way by the robber plea of the demands of the civilization--a demand which had been the cry of tryants throughout history.

state of Colorado, county of Teller: In the inquisitioh held at Cripple Creek, Teller county, state of Colorado on the 9th and 10th days of June, 1904. before George A. Hall, coroner of said county, upon the bodies lying in death. the jurors upon their oaths do say that said persons came to their deaths by an explosion of dynamite. or other explosives at the Florence and Cripple Creek depot, in the town of Indepen- dence, Teller county, Colorado, on the morning of June 6, 1904, about 2:30 a. m.; we further find that said eXplo- sives were exploded by an internal machine, purposely and artfully dis charged by some persons unknown to the jury, for the purpose wilfully, ma Hciously and felcniously Of killing and murdering said persons and others: that said crime is one of similar crimes designed and committed in the Cripple Creek district in the past few months and perpetTated for the pur pose of killing and intimidating non- ucion miners and thereby preventing them from working and that said crimes are the result of a conspiracy entered into by certain members of the Western Federation Of Miners and known and melted and furthered by certain persons in that organization. !"
 The jury examined a total of seven teen witnesses. 4 part of them were examined behind closed doors and it is said some sensational testimony was brought out, but no inkling of it's na- ture has been made public.
