BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, Oct. led
ward George Cunliffe, who was ar
rested here today on the charge of
stealing $101,000 from the Adams Ex-
press company in Pittsburg, Oct. 9. will
be taken to New York tomorrow morn
ing by detectives. A detective told
Cunliffe tonight that $SO,OOO had been
recovered at the home of his brother
in-law in Bristol and pressed him to
tell where the missing $4,000 was hid
den. Cunliffe finally said:
You'll never get it: 1 have de-
stroyed it."
The detective at first doubted Cum
liffe's story, but the prisoner stuck to
it, saying that he had burned the
money in his rooms in the hotel where
he stopped here. He said that he was
afraid that the bills would give him
away, as they were of large denomina-
tions and practically marked, as they
were notes of the Allegheny National
bank in Pittsburg and that everybody
was ooking for them
Cunliffe said that rather than carry
was looking for them.
If this statement is true, and the de-
tectives think it Is, the total amount
of the money stolen is accounted for.

the display of money than Boardman
himself.
Mr.. Curtis packed the money in a
valise and took the late train for Hart
ford. Boardman says he has received
no word from Cunliffe during eighteen
months, and that if the fugitive had
come this way he would have informed

Convictions
By Associated Fress.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.--The annual
report of Gen. George B. Davis, judge

that of the commissioned officers tried
during the last year by general court
martial, thirty-five were convicted and
thirteen acquitted. Three cadets and
4,393 enlisted men were convicted, while
356 men were acquitted.
The total number Of trials before
general court-martial of 4S00 cases
shows an increase of 551 cases over last
year. This increase is mainly due to
the fact that a large number of de-
serters have been apprehended and
brought to trial. the number of con-
viotions for desertion being LAS this
year, an increase of 44O. This gain
Is chiefly due to the increase of the
reward paid to all civil officers for
the apprehension of deserters, inducing
greater vigilance on their part. The
number of men sentenced to dishonor-
able discharge was 2,529

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-Declaring
that Japan welcomes the presence of

Mr.. Takahira, the Japanese minister
tonight gave a statement to the WASH

cause they are occupied by the United
States with the firm hold of its author
ity over the archipelago, not to speak
of many object lessons being given
there by the new owners. by introduce
ing modern improvements In various
ways"
Regarding Japans future, Mr.. Taxa
hira said:
Il presume 1t would be better for
you to walt a little while before you
will be able to see what Japan will
do actually. firmly believe that there
will be no departure made hereafter
from the line of policy hitherto pursued
by the Japanese government. The
open door policy proposed by the
United States, and readily Joined in by
Japan in July, 1900, will be scrupu-
lously observed throughout the future,
and the legitimate rights and interests
of all nations will be duly respected
wherever our influence would extend"
Regarding Japan's ability to meet
her Indebtedness, Mr.. Takahira said:
mo doubt the burden is very heavy,
but if we consider the fact that the ex-
traordinary special tax alone was
raised since the war to the amount of
$75.OO0,0O0 per annum without hamper
ing the growth of commerce and indus
try, l feel sure there is no cause for
pessimism, and moreover a satisfactory
sign is the continued development of
both internal and external trade"

GIRL HYPNoTIzES HERSELF
Former Salvation Army Worker to Be
Released From Joliet Pen-

CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-The former Sal
walton army girl Inga Hanson, who
was sent to Joliet penitentiary for all
legged perjury in connection with per-
sonal injury suit against the Chicago
City railway, will probably be pardoned
by Gov. Deenen. The physicians depu-
tized by the governor to examine the
woman declared today that she is the
victim of auto-hypnosis and that as
long as she is in her present environ
ments she will be helpless and that
death will ensue unless she is released.
The physicians declare that if she
were to say to herself that she is well,
she could raise from her bed and walk.
Organically there is nothing wrong
with her, but functionally she is all dis
ordered.
The physicians did not say that Miss
Hanson was not injured by the street
car accident, which brought about the
suit against the street car company.
They declare, however, that there is
strong probability that she was at first
q sufferer from an injury which caused
her temporary illness of the same ma
ture as that from which she is now
helpless. The case is referred to as a
rare development of traumatic hys-

TO INTER ASHES
OF IRVING TODAY
TO LIE IN POETS CORNER OF
WESTMINSTER ABBEY
Remains Removed From Residence Of
Baroness Burdett-Coutts to
Chapel Of ct. Faith Under
Police Guard
By Associated Press.

LONDON, Oct. 19.-The ashes Of Sir
Henry Irving enclosed in plain oaken
coffin, are now lying in the chapel of
st. Faith, Westminster abbey, waiting
tomorrows elaborate ceremony of in
terment in poets corner. Their re-
moval from the residence of Baroness
Burdett- Coutts, which was guarded by
large force of police, took place this
evening.
The coffin was placed in a hearse
preceded by mounted police and fol-
lowed by one carriage, the occupants
of which were the two sons of the
deceased and Sir Henry's aged dresser,
Warden Collins, who had been his at
tendant for half a century. This
modest procession was brought up by
another squad of mounted police. The
entire route to the abbey was lined
by thousands of persons. The men,
standing bareheaded, waited In re-
spectful silence until the hearse passed
hind the police. On arrival at the alb
bey the entire square was filled with
a hatless multitude. The hearse was
driven into the deans yard, where 1t
was met by the dean of Westminster
and a number of clergy.
The scene was most impressive, as
the procession moved and disappeared
among the gloomy, time-worn cloisters.
The silence was broken only by the
footballs of the clergy and bearers.
The public was not admitted to the
abbey. AS the procession entered, the
great organ softly played the dead
march from Saul until the chapel of
St. Faith was reached and the coffin
had been placed upon a catafalque.
When the music was stopped, short
prayer was said by the dean.
An open grave in poets corner
awaits tomorrows ceremony. 1t is
lined with heavy black cloth, which
also carpets the floor for distance of
several yards. The walls of the chapel
are banked with great piles of floral
tributes.
For hours today a constant stream of
people filed past the casket as it rested
in the dining room of Baroness Bur-
dett- t-Coutts.
Burning tapers surrounded the cata-
faldue, and the wreath of floral trib-
utes American and continental as well
as British, was so great that the cata-
falque was not only hidden, but floral
offerings lined the bases of the walls
of the spacious apartment. Ambassa-
dor and Mrs. Whitelaw Reid are COM
ing to London especially from Scotland
to represent the United States at the
funeral tomorrow.
