"Are you sure you had locomotor
etaxia?. Doctors almost invariably say
that disease is incurable."
1.-THE doctors themselves told me l
had locomotor ataxia, and they told my
wife that in few months 1 would be-
come helpless. They made it pretty
plain to her that people who had that
trouble got steadily worse but never
better. Besides I know I had that
disease, because recognized the symp-

What were they?"

stiffness about the knee joints that
came on about tour years ago. A few
months after that appeared, my walk

confidence in my power to control the
movements of my legs when I was on
my feet. Once, when l was in the cell

coal, and my legs gave way suddenly,
and tumbled all in a heap in a bask-
ct. Another time came down in the
same way in the parlor. l couldn't
close my eyes and keep my balance to
save my life Then I had fearful pains
over my whole body and lost control
over my kidneys and my bowels.
How about your general health?"
"Sometimes was so weak that had
to keep my bed for a couple of weeks
at time, and my'weight fell off twen-

Grand Jury Ends Inquiry and Will
Name Six Persons in Conspiracy.
New York, Jan. 27.-The grand jury
yesterday concluded its investigation
into the Dodge Morse tangle and will
report to Judge Mcmahon of the gen
eral sessions today.
1t is said indictments will be pre-
sented and that six persons are nam
ed in them for conspiracy and subor-
dination Of perjury. 1t is believed that
arrests will Immediately follow. Those
who will be indicted, it is said, are
five lawyers, and one of the principals
in the case, has been before the grand
jury within the past few days.
The friends of Charles W. Morse
made an effort to have the investiga-
ton delayed until Mr.. Morse returned
from Europe, but the grand jury re-
fused to wait. The members after go
ing over the evidence before them de-
cided they had heard all they needed
to know and that no good would be
served by a further examination of Mr..
Morse. who testified before the grand
jury before he sailed for Europe.
Assistant District Attorneys Perk-

complete charge of the Dodge Morse
affair." had long conference yesterday,
and were before the grand jury sew

visit to the grand jury room that the
announcement was made on reliable
authority that the body had concluded
to act at once.
Most Remarkable Case.
The Dodge Morse tangle has been
one of the most remarkable cases that
ever came up In this country. Mrs.
Clemence Cowles Dodge was the wife
of Charles f. Dodge, hotel man OF
Atlanta, Ga. She separated from her
husband and came to this city, where
she ran a boarding house. Here she
met Charles w. Morse, the millionaire

Fighting is Reported in Streets of Cap
itaI City.
New Orleans, Jan. 27.-According to
a cablegram yesterday afternoon from
the staff correspondent of the Picay-
une, who is now in Colon. an insurrec-
ton of grave proportions has broken
out in San Domingo on the announce
ment of the fact that the United States
had assumed a protectorate over the
island and in the future would act
as the adviser of the local government.
The cablegram says that fighting is
going on in the streets all over the
city of Santo Domingo and that 1t may
be some time before the instruction
can be quelled.
Marines Rushed to Isle.
A cablegram was received by the
naval officers at Colon late yesterday
afternoon, too, ordering that 500 mar
ines be placed on board the Dixie at the
earliest possible moment and the cap
tain of the Dixie, which has been cruis-
ing in southern waters for several
months past, was ordered to proceed
to Santo Domingo as soon as possible
and to place the forces on his ship at
the disposal Of the officer in the COM
mand of the forces which are already
on the island.
AS soon as the order was received
500 men under the command of Colonel
Wood broke camp as rapidly as posi-
BILE and embarked on the Dixie. The
500 men who went to Santo Domingo
are those who relieved the six COM
panies that have been on the isth1nus
for the last year.
Artillery on the Way.
A special train was provided for the
troops from Empire Camp to Colon,
and tie men, together with a number
of pieces of heavy artillery, were trans
ferred to the transport during the af-
ternoon.
The Dixie is expected to sail in the
morning and will reach the island on
Monday morning.
The departure Of these troops leaves
the government works and the quarter
masters stores on the isthmus practic-
ally without a guard, and for this reas-
on the naval officers at Colon believe
that the trouble which has broken out
in Santo Domingo must be serious,
else the order removing almost all the
troops from the isthmus would not
have been issued.

however, 1t was found that he had been
supplied with ample funds to fight ex-
tradition. Two lawyers went to Tex
as to assist him in his fight, but 1t was
unsuccessful. The federal courts took
a hand in the matter and Dodge was
finally brought back here several weeks
ago. He was induced to abandon all
his old advisers and is reported to have
made full confession. He has been
in charge of Mr.. Jerome's men ever
since his arrival here and no one has
been allowed to see him.

CHAPTER ".
How Nigel Was Tried by the Abbot
of Waverley

THE law of the Middle Ages, shrouded as It was
n old Norman-French dialect, and abound
Il ing in uncouth and incomprehensible terms,
deodands and heTlOts IN lntang and outtang, was
a fearsome weapon in the hands of those who knew
how TO it. 1t was not for nothing that the
first act of the rebe. commonerS was to hew off
the head of the Lord Chancellor. In age when
few knew how to read or to write, these mystic
phrases and intricate forms, with the parchments
and seals which We're their outward expression
struck cold terror into hearts which were steeled
against mere physical danger.
. Even young Nigel Loring's blithe and elastic
spirit chilled he lay that night in the penal
cell of Waverley and pondered over the absolute
ruin which threatened his house from source
against which all his courage was of no avail As
well take UP sword and shield to defend himself
against the black death, as against this blight OF
Holy Church. He was powerless in the grip of
the Abbey Already they had ShOrn off field here
and a grove there, and in sweep they
would take in the rest, and where then was the home
of the Lorings, and where should Lady Ermyntrude
Law her aged head, his old retalners, broken and
spent exc out the balance OF their days! lie
shivered as he thought of it.
1t was very well for him to threaten to carry the
matter before the King, but it ten years since
rovaI Edward had heard the name OF Lorlng, and
Nigel knew that the memory OF princes was a snort
one. Besides the Church was the ruling power IN
the palace as well in the cottage, and 1t was only
for. very good cause that King could be expected
to cross the purposes of so high Prelate as the
Abbot of Waverley, so long they came within
the scope of the law Where then was he to look
for help? With the simple and practical P1ety OF the
ace he 11raved for the aid of his own particular
saints. of Saint Paul whose adventures by land
and sea had alwars endeared him; of Saint George
who had gained much honorable advancement from
the Dragon; and of Saint Thomas, who was gentle
man of coat-armor, who would understand and helP
person of gentle blood Then fnuch colLol .ep
nv his naive prisons he enjoyed the sleep OF youth
and health until the entrance of the lay brother
with the bread and small beer which served as
breakfast in the morning.

the fee simple of the estate. There were other
claims also. The sacrist. called for his books, and
with thin eager forefnger he tracked them down:
dues for this and tailage forthat, so many shilngS
this lear, and SO many. marks that one. Some of
it occurred before Nigel was born; some of it
when ne but child. The accounts had been
checked and certified by the sergeant of the law.
Nigel listened to the dread recital and felt like
some young stag who stands at bay with brave
pose and heart of fire, but who sees himself COM
passed round and knows clearly that there is no
escape. With his bold young face, his steady blue
eyes, and the proud pose of his head, he was
worthy scion of the old house, and the sun, shining
through the high oriel window, and showing UP the
stained and threadbare condition of his once rich
doub IT. seemed to illuminate the fallen fortunes of
his family. ;
The sacrist had finished his exposition and the
sergeant at law about to conclude a case
which Nigel could in way controVert, when help
came to him from unexpected quarter. 1t may
have been a certain maignIty with which the
sacrist urged his suit it may have been diplomatic
dislike to driving matters to extremes or it may
have been some genuine impulse OF kindness, for
Abbot John chOleric but easily appeaSed
Whatever the cause, the result was that a white
plump hand, raised in the air with gesture of
authority, showed that the case was at an end.
''Our brother sacrist hath done his duty in urging
this suit said he for the worldly wealth of this
Abbey is placed in his pious keeping, and it is to
him that we should look if we suffered in such
ways for we are but the trustees of those who
come after But to my keeping has been
signed that which is precious still, the inner
spirit and high repute of those who follow the rule
of Saint Bernard. Now it has been en-
deavor, since first our sanity founder went down
into the valley of Clarvaux and built himself a
cell there, that should set example to all men
in gentleness and humility. For this reason it is

order who await the exaltation which is promised

who was taken poaching on the Abbey estate, or
chapman who lad given false measure from his
biased scales st now, when a of noble
birth be t1ied, the whole legal and ecclesi-
astcal ceremony was carried out with every detail,
grotesque impressive, which the full ritual pre-
scribed: The distant roll of church music and the
slow tolling Of the Abbey bell; the whte-robed
brethren. two and two walked thrice round the hall
singing the "Benedicite" and the "Veni, Creator"
before they settled in their places at the desks
either side. Then in turn each high officer of the
Abbey from below upward, the almoner, the lector,
the chaplain, the subprior and the prior, swept to
their wonted places.
Finally there came the grim sacrist, with demure
triumph upon his downcast features, and at his
heels Abbot John himself, slow and dignihed with
pompous walk and solemn, composed face, his IRON
beaded rosary swinging from his waist his breviary
in his hand, and his lips muttering as he hurried
through his office for the day He knet at his high
pre-dieu the brethren, at signal from the prior,
Frustrated themselves upon the floor, and the low
deep voices rolled in prayer echoed back from the
arched and vaulted roof like the wash of
from an ocean cavern. Finally the monks resumed
their seats; there entered clerks in seemly black
with pens and parchment the red-velveted sunnmoner
appeared to tell his tale; Nigel was led IN with
archers pressing close around him; and then, with
much calling of old French and much legal ncanta-
ton and mystery, the court of the Abbey was open
for business.
1t was the sacrist who first advanced to the
oaken desk reserved for the witnesses and eX-
pounded in hard dry mechanical fashion the many
claims which the House of Waverley had against
the family of Loring. Some generations back IN
return for money advanced for spiritual favor
received the Loring of the day had admitted that
his estate had certain feudal duties toward the
Abbey. The sacrist held up the cracking yellow
parchment with swinging leaden seals on which
tI,e claim was based Amid the obligations was
that of escuage by which the price of a knights
fee should. be paid every year. No such price had
been paid, nor had any service been done. The
accumulated years came to a greater sttn than
