ASK FOR ACCOUNTING.
Losers IN Golden Rule Copper Com
pany Want Drd7cbdck

An echo of the copper excitement of a few
years ago is the meeting of the stockholders of
the Golden Rule Copper Company which will be
held tomorrow afternoon at the Office of Thomas
Gflleran No. 81 Chambers-st. The company has
been practically defunct since the ore bodies in
its Arizona mines played out more than year
ago. The promoters were ousted from office at
that time and new officers elected, who took the
books. They have had an expert at work. and
on the strength Of their report an accounting is
70 be demanded
More than 100000 has been put up by the
stockholders OF the Golden Rule Copper Com

porter, land there is nothing to show for it but
few holes IN Arizona mountains. The COM
pany was promoted by William H. Lake, re-
tired builder and John B. Hubbard, real estate
dealer both of Yonkers. 4 large part of the
stock was sold to people living in Yonkers and
this city.
The stockholders have called this meeting to
go over the report OF experts who have been
annining the books We believe the stockholders
deserve drawback, and a fund probably will
be subscribed TO force accounting
John B. Hubbard, who was treasurer OF the
company in the beginning and associated with
Lake in its promotion. said he was not surprised
that the stockholders mad called meeting. He
said he would be nightly surprised, however

M'ADOO'S AUTO" PLANS.
PRECAUTIONS IN BRONX.
ActiUe Measures to Prevent assaults
TO Probe GotshaU Case.

Police Commissioner McAdoo announced yes
terday that he would put into effect on Satur-
day plans for the better handling of automo-
biles both in the interests Of the automobilist
and of all others who use the thoroughfares.
What those plans are, he will not say.
MY position is absolutely impartial said he
yesterday. "As long as the automobile people
do not break the law they will be protected.
but they must not exceed the speed limits. and
they also must keep to the right side of the
street The people in general also will be looked
after"
w w. Niles counsel for the Automobile Club
of America called Commissioner McAdoo to
consult with him concerning the plans for the
protection of automobiles from attacks by
stone throwers. The Commissioner told Mr..
Niles that the majority of the complaints of at
tacks on automobiles came from the crowded
portions of the city, especially in the streets
leading to the various ferries and that he was
at work certain routes to be used by auto
rnobilists which he would submit to the Auto
mobile Club for its approval.
Mr.. Niles called to the attention OF Mr.. Nc
Adoo that complaint had been received of at
tacks on automobiles running through fremont
ave, in The Bronx, and asked that the local.
police be instructed to take special precautions
for the guarding of automobiles in that locality.
This the Commissioner assured Mr.. Niles would
be done.
Efforts also will be made to prevent assaults
occupants OF automobiles similar to those
made on Mrs GotshalI and the of Judge
Hilton. Mr.. Gotshan called on the Commits
sioner yesterday. and was asked about the as
sault on his wife, who is still suffering from the
injury. Inspectors Cartright and McClusky were
present.
The Commissioner had received a written re-
port from Patrolnan James Cashel, OF the East
One hundred-and- fourth-st station. whose
post the assault on Mrs. Gotshall occurred. He
says he not requested by Mrs. Gotshall to
arrest the boy. Mr.. Gotshan corroborates him.
Mr. Gotshall was reluctant to make a charge
against Cashel. but Mr.. McAdoo is not satisfied
that the officer performed his proper duty in
connection with the case. and will have him
placed trial week from to-day. The
officer made report OF the matter. and took
no names OF those concerned. Mr.. Gotshal
agreed to appear as witness at the officers
trial.
Alfred Rocco, eighteen years old, who said
he lived at No. l jamaica ave. Astoria, was
arrested yesterday. charged with being the boy
who threw the stone at Mrs. Gotshan. He will
be held until Mr.. Gotshan can identify him.

second hearing yesterday the application OF
the Union Railway Company for franchises over
four of the Harlem River bridges and for certain
connecting links OF its system. all making dis
tance OF six miles. four miles OF which are the
bridges and approaches. George W. Wickersham,
counsel for tho marlborough Railway Company.
made the principal argument in opposition to the
grant. He called attention TO the lack of good
faith" the part of the applicant company 1t
had opposed the application OF the marlborough
for the franchises on the ground that IL had
ample facilities and franchises with which TO
handle all OF the traffic OF The Bronx. and the State

Former Coachma1s of Family Tells
of Meeting Her an Third-aUe.

A former coachman of II. Leroy Jones furnishes
the latest clew to the whereabouts of Mrs Jones'
"A coachman, Charles Pines who worked for US
five years ago at Far Rockaway,' said Mr.. Jones
last night, Informed my mother that he was sure
he saw Mrs Jones at Fifty-ninth-st. and Third-ave
several times this week. He said he her Tues

hat with blue feathers. Pines said she looking
at a shop window when he approac hed her, and
that she made efforts to avoid him. The other
times he her she had a gray dress and
had a large diamond ring her finger. 1 don't
believe the Pines saw could have been Mrs
Jones. So far know. she took with her only
the black dress she when she disappeared
She had no rings Besides, Mrs. Jones has changed
much in the last five years. She dresses her hai~
differently. and her mental trouble has altered her
appearance greatly. The coachman is
