KEEPS MRS. MVICKERS BODY
DIR. ZeiEIer Won't Let the Dead Woman's
Niece See 1t.

PASADENA. Cal. Aug. 2s.-A fight is on
for the custody OF the remains Of Mrs. j..
H. Mcvicker. DIR. Zegler, who came here
with her, says he has written authority from
Mrs. Mcvicker to look after her estate and
make funeral arrangements. He is carry
ing these instructions out, even refusing
to allow Mrs Clara Game OF San Francisco
a niece OF Mrs. McVicker to see the body
when she arrived here at noon to-day.
Rather than have Horace Mcvicker get
custody OF the body, DR.. Zeigler is prepared
to leave the hotel and remain at the side OF
the casket in the morgue day and night
1t Is probable that he will start for Chicago
with the body before Horace McVicker
arrives.
Local physicians say Horace McVicker's
avowed intention Of having a second au-
topsy performed is a surgical impossibility
DR.. Zeigler denies knowledge OF the con-
tents OF Mrs. McVickers will, but II is said
he expects to be remembered to the ex-
tent Of from 500 900 to S25O,oOO. He would
probably have been the chief beneficiary
had he been able to prolong her life for
another ten days, AZ she told three different
persons Of her intention to disinhcrit Horace
Mcvicker and Jennie Boydston and reward
Zeigler's devotion with much larger gift.

ST. PETERSBURG Aug. 2s.-The repre-
sentations of the United States and Great
Britain in regard to the distinction between
conditional and absolute contraband OF
war have received long consideration from
the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the
Minister of Marine. A joint commission
representing both these ministries. under
the craftsmanship Of Prof. Martens. an
eminent Russian authority on international
law, will meet Immediately to consider tbs
subject. The result of the deliberations will
probably be known before the end OF the

It is impossible to foreshadow what the
decisions on the points involved will be,
but well informed persons state that the
indications are that they will be such as to
remove cause for friction between Russia

were waiting for Mrs. Duncombe, sent

Of patrolulen chased the men across the
Kingsbridge road into the East Chester
woods, and then lost track of them.

GROWS COTTON IN JERSEY.
West Summit Man Raises Fifty Plants
From Seed Planted In May.

SUMMIT, N. j., Aug. 2s.-George Fl.
Williams has been conducting an interesting
experiment at Meadowb brook, his handsome
homo in West Summit, which thus far has
been a success. Early In May he secured
some cotton seed from the South and de-
oided to make an effort to cultivate 1t here.
something always regarded as impossible
because OF the rigorous climate.
Mr.. Williams was satisfied that the ex-
pertinent had not been properly made,
and the results show that at least he has
the right idea in caring for the plant. He
has now about fifty plants developed from
seed planted in May. These plants bear
beautiful blosso ms Of red, Pink and white.
and II the weather continues moderately
warm until late in September Mr.. Williams
will have a small crop Of fully matured

CITY HOSPITALS CROWDED.
Typhoid In Tho Bronx . Cause-Fear for

The tota inadequacy Of the public hos
pital accommodations of this city has
been brought to the attention OF the
health authorities and the trustees Q
Bellevue and Allied Hospitals by an out
break of typhoid fever in The Bronx.
Fordham Hospital has been filled to over
flowing and many sick persons have been
transferred to Harlem and Bellevue hos
pitfalls, SO that both those institutions are
now crowded.
The disease started three weeks ago
among the Italians in the Bedford Park
section. Fordham Hospital, which has
accommodations for only twenty medical
patients. is now caring for twenty-five
cases.
A canvass OF the physicians and private
hospitals OF The Bronx yesterday showed
that at least one hundred cases are now
being treated in tho upper part OF the bor-
ough.
Medical Inspector Elliott has so far
failed to locate the cause of the contagion,
although the milk from dozen dairies has
been tested and water from numerous
wells analysed.
DR.. r. Joseph Dunn, attending physician
to Fordham Hospital, appealed to Acting
Superintendent Gregory OF Bellevue several
days ago, with the result that cottage
tent liz now being erected which will accom-
modate a dozen patients. The medical
wards in Bellevue are now crowded. Cots
have been set up in q dozen wards SO that
it would not be necessary to turn away
patients,
With Bellevue and Allied Hospitals
crowded already, the authorities view the
approach of winter with much appre-
hension.

ELDERLY SACK" IN MISCHIEF.
A Mix-I'p Of Three which the Cop Said
He wouldn't butt Into for Money.

An elderly man and young woman
whose hair was golden and dress pale blue
walked out of the New York Theatre after
the concert last night and hailed a cab
Blue Dress had been helped into the cal
and her escort was standing on the steI
demanding to be taken by the shortest
route to n well known lobster palace, when
a brown-sleeved arm reached out and q
black -gloved hand secured firm hold on
the few gray locks Of his back hair. The
brown sleeve belonged to the brown dress
OF a middle aged woman. and there was
fire in her eyes as she snapped:
Jack! What do you mean?"
"Leggo my hair" Jack demanded.
Then he executed q series of lodges
which failed to miss several well aimed
blows directed for his face. Meanwhile
the cabman whipped up his horse and
pointed north on Broadway. He didn't
get far. Brown Dress, leaving Jack,
hoped on the step of the hanson and as
sailed Blue Dress. The latter's yellow
locks were dishevelled and her pink cheeks
were smacked hard and often The screams
that came from the cab could be heard a
block away.
The cabman didn't find it necessary to
apply the whip to the horse, for the animal
went faster than his driver desired. Jack
followed, shouting. Three blocks away,
at Forty-seventh street. the cab was pulled
up to avoid colliding with an automobile
and Brown Dress alighted saying:
There, you hussy! hope you will
leave other womens husbands alone here
after!"
Cab, cabman and Blue Dress continued
northward at swift gait. Jack" painting
for breath, stood in the middle Of the street
attempting to talk.
-Come homel" said Brown Dress, getting
Q strangle hold on his collar.
Jack" and his captor climbed into an
other cab and drove south. When they
had vanished a policeman peered around
the corner and inquired:
as it over?"
When he was told that it was he said
with great emphasis:
Il wouldn't have mixed up in that for
money!"

HILL TO GIVE UP POLITICS.
FIXES JAN. AS THE DATE or
HIS RETIREMENT.
In the Event OF Democratic Success. He
Says. He WIZ Not Accept Any once
From Federal or State Administrations


ALBANY, Aug. 2s.-To-morrow is the
sixty-frst birthday OF the Hon. David B.
Hill Of this city. He was born on Aug. 20,
Is4s. In conversation with his political
friends here to-day he announced that no
matter what the result OF the present cam
paign might be, either in the State or nation,
he should retire from political activity and
leadership on the first day Of January, and
would not, in the event of Democratic sue
cess, accept any office under the national
or State Democratic administrations, or
again become candidate for election to any
Office whatever. He said that he intended
to take such action year ago to-day but
was persuaded by some close personal
friends to defer 80 doing to until after the
Presidential election this year, which he
consented to do
Having been engaged in active politics
since his youth. and having served the people
as City Attorney, Alderman, Mayor, men,
ber of the Legislature. Lieutenant-Governo
Governor for seven years and United States
Senator for six years, he feels that on the
one hand he has been sufficiently honored
by his party and on the other hand that he
has rendered political service during a
period OF years sufficient to entitle him to
be relieved from active political effort, in
order that he may devote more time to his
personal affairs and professional duties
than he has in the past. He will continue,
however, his present arduous labors for the
Democratic cause during the pending Presi-
dental campaign. and thereafter while ex-
pecting always to maintain his interest in
the success Of Democratic principles and
candidates, he will, after Jan. next, do so
in his capacity as private citizen and not
az party manager leader or officeholder.
Mr.. Hill will speak for the Democrats at
the county fair to be held at Whitney's
Point in this State on Wednesday Of this
week, TO be followed by Senator Depew,
the next day, for the Republicans.
