CLEVELAND, o., March Sirius
tee of the Chadwick assets, Nathan
Loeser. and County Prosecutor Harvey
r. Keller called by appointment upon
Andrew Carnegie at the home OF Syl-
vester T.. Everett in this city today,
Mr.. Loeser brought with him the ia
nous $4,000, 900 note and the equally
famous note trust agreement The
officials obtained specimens of Mr.. Car
negie's handwriting for the purpose of
comparing it with the writing on the
paper which Mrs. Chadwick used as
security for many OF her transactions.
Mr.. Carnegie was amused when he
saw the documents bearing his name.
The dissimilarity between the sigma
ture which Mr.. Carnegie wrote for Mr..
Keller and the signature which was
reputed to be his on the bank paper
was marked.
A. second purpose of the visit to Mr..
Carnegie was to learn IL Mr.. Carnegie
could be dispensed from coming for
the second trial which Mrs. Chadwick
and her husband will have to undergo
upon state indictments.
Mr.. Carnegie said that he was willing
to come to Cleveland in the interest of
justice as often as necessary; that he
regarded II as his duty as a citizen to
do SO. and that every citizen should
aid in the punishment of crime
wherever found
Mr.. Carnegie said that he would be
In court at $3.50 tomorrow morning to
be sworn as a witness in the govern
ments case.
Prof Gould of Cleveland, a hand
writing expert, was present during the
conference between Mr.. Carnegie and
the trustee and Prosecutor Keller. and
made some interesting comment upon
the two styles of writing as shown by
the alleged forgeries and the genuine
signature of Mr.. Carnegie.
Ex-Federal Judge Francis ]. Wing.
who has been retained to assist j. p.
Dawley in the defense of Mrs Chad
wick. said tonight that he had no idea
as TO how long the trial would last.
neither would he give any intimation
as to what the defense would be so far
as his counsel had been asked.
Mr.. Carnegie, in the course of his
talk with Prosecutor Keller and Trus-
tee Loeser, repeated his former state
ments that he had never met Mrs.
Chadwick. had never ever heard OF her
until the crash in the woman's financial
affairs came.
Mrs. Chadwick Hopeful
CLEVELAND. o.. March SIN a
statement made tonight Mrs. Cassie L.
Chadwick. whose trial upon a federal
Indictment charging her with con-
spiracy against the United States
banking laws begins tomorrow, pro-
fesses to have confidence that the out
come of the trial will be in her favor.
She said:
l have great hopes for the outcome.
am worried, but not in the sense you
would imagine. This Is big event for
me-, and naturally l am all concerned and
anxious, not for the result, mind you. but
life.
/ viii be nervous. but that is not owing
TO the trial itself. but on account of the
large number of people who will be there
looking at me. That unstrings me- / can
hardly stand It,
They viii say bad things about me, but
l will not hear them. / will not be able
to hear anything that is going on. You
know am hard of hearing.
Mr.. Carnegie's presence in the city Is
very good news to me-
The probabilities are that 1 will not go
on the stand in my own defense Tuesday.
