KEMPSON HAD
NO EVIDENCE.
His Case Accusing Man of Hug.
ging His Ward Was
Dismissed.

Daniel Callahan, seventy years old,
of % Newark avenue, Jersey City,
who was arrested Monday night on
complaint of st. George kempson,
formerly of this city, as told in yester-
days NEWS, denied yesterday in the
West Side court that he had tried to
kiss eighteen-year-old Aida Bar
mour, of 255 West Fifty-eighth street,
as a finale to his negotiations for the
purchase of her mothers boarding
house. Aida was accompanied to
court by her guardian, st. George
Kempson, u publisher at 1876 Broad
way, who lives at the house.
The following is from this norm
ing's New York Sun:
"Alida's mother, y widow, has
been trying to sell the furnishings and
good will of the place, and Callahan
has been dickering for their purchase
for over two months. All the bargain
ing has been between Aida and Cal
lahan. She says that Callahan called
on her at least eight times, although
he knew from the first the terms on
which the house was for sale. When
he called Monday night She let him in
and the boarders retired from the par
lor, leaving the two alone.
When he started to go, half an
hour later, Aida says, he tried to kiss
her. ~
Bat did he ki4s you?'' demanded
ME magistrate.
NO.
''What did lie do?"
Tried to put his arm around me.
''And what did you do?"
81 said Stop! Don't you dare!'
''Then he didn't kiss your"
''No, not yesterday"
''What happened them
''Mr. Kempson came in and caused
his arrest.
Kempson said hat after Callahan
called he went into the hall and stood
there holding the door knob. When
he heard Aida cry stop" he said,
he jumped into the room.
"What did you see?'' asked Magis-
trate Moss.
''Callahan was holding her in his
arms"
''What did you do them"
''Shoved them apart-and then
l-pooEa1 hi, hot off -
''What them
"Locked him in the room after
Aida had gone out. Then | went
outside to find a policeman. Callahan
put his head out of the window and
yelled for the police also"
Callahan said he had been negotiat-
ing for the house for two months, but
had been there only four times.
"Why did you go so often, when
you knew the price from the first?''
asked the magistrate.
''Well, they wanted 81, coo to begin
with, then $500, and lastly $780,
Dropped a couple of hundred each
time you called, eh?' said Magistrate
Moss.
did you act in an affectionate
manner toward this grip"
mo more affectionately than it was
proper for II gentleman to act, he re-
piled.
Callahan denied kissing Aida. He
said he had bought another house and
went there t o tell them not to bother
about him any longer.
''Well," said the magistrate,
there's no legal proof that you did
anything wrong, and I'll discharge
you"

Don't you grow very weary
Of the extravagant clothes talk

Isn't refreshing to read the

does not proclaim that some
manufacturer is busted -
Isn't refreshing to have us
simply announce we sell you a
splendid SO suit for $40. Isn't
refreshing to know that we sell
a still finer for $12. Isn't re-
freshing to be on the safe side
and deal here where you al
ways got your moneys worth.
Our Spring Suits and Top
Coats cannot be equalled by
any house in the city, and 1t
must be refreshing to think
that we do not sell you a S25

PITTSBURG, Dec. 15.-New York

officials of the corporation. For this
reason a movement is on foot 20 have

No Reconciliation.
According to relatives and friends Of
the Corey family in Pittsburg, Mr.. and
Mrs Charles M. Schwab might as well
devote their time to something else
than trying to effect a reconciliation
between William Ellis Corey and his
wife. 1t is declared here by those
who know that no matter what deci-
sion might be reached by Mr.. Corey,
his wife would positicely refuse to en-
terrain any suggestions which would
tend to bring the couple together
again. Had the attempt been made
prior to the publication Of all the facts
in the case, there is but little doubt
that Mrs. Corey would have been only
too glad to overlook whatever short
comings her husband may have. Now,
it is claimed, it is too late.
The prospects of the selection of
William B. Schiller, president of the
National Tube company, to succeed
Corey are growing brighter every day.
Pittsburg steel men have practically
settled upon him as the coming head
of the great concern. He has the
backing Of many of the most promi-
nent men in the corporation, and he is
considered the best man available for
the place.
Few people, even in Pittsburg, know
much of Mr. Schiller, He is quiet, I'M
assuming and approachable, though
one of the most lovable men when
known. Only As years of age, Mr..
Schiller remained bachelor until four
years ago, and then he had his ro-
nance.
The fortune of Mr.. Schiller is est1-
mated at about $10,0O0,000.

LITTLE DEMAND FOR WHEAT
CALIFORNIA AND EUROPE AP-
PEAR TO HAVE PLETHORA
OF GRAIN.
Fall Wheat Looks Fine and PROSPECTS,
for Another Big Yield Next
Year Promising.

Wheat trade continues along quiet
and unchanged lines. There is very
little demand at this time from the
various sources where disposition is
being made of this seasons crop. The
demand from Europe is very light, and
exporters are operating accordingly
California appears to have a plethora
of wheat at this time, and beyond the
continued delivery of large amounts
on previous purchases there is little
activity in this direction. Some little
wheat is still going to the Orient, but
there are no new purchasers on this
account, and the mills do not need any
more wheat until there is a better
products, says the West Coast Trade.
The general market is steady though
the government report issued during
the week, showing the position of win
ter wheat to be II points higher than
at this time year ago, had a weak
ening tendency, offset to some extent
by a decrease of two and a quarter
million bushels in the visible supply
statement for this country. In the
Pacific northwest fall wheat is looking
fine. The acreage is fully up to the
normal, and present prospects for an
other good harvest are all that could
be expected
Locally there are still fair deliveries,
though the week showed the lightest
movement to this point in two months,
only 365 cars, or a little over 100000
bushels being inspected. Puget Sound
exports for the week were 361,6SS
bushels, of which 223,6SS bushels were
loaded at Tacoma.
