grace that has ever been brought on any

fault, but We don't want anything in the
newspa pers about it. He has brought us
into the limelight enough before without
dragging us into this"
Mr.. Banker refused to say that Kings
ley, or Hope, had beaten him out of any
considerable amount of money, but his ex-
preston conveyed that idea.
According to Mrs Frank Wheeler. man
ager of the Eleventh Avenue hotel Kings
ley gave the people around the hotel to
understand that he was a nObleman and
that his name was Beresford Hope-at
least Mrs. Wheeler thought that was the
name. 1t was some high-sOundng gen
tleman's name, and she believed BeresfOrd
Hope was it. She said she wasn't sur
prised to learn of his latest maneuvers.

SUCCESS AND FAILURE.
0Kansas City World.

(Kansas City World.)
Man and animal are both making
ceaseleSS struggle for success.
The law of the survival OF the flttest
is doing it's work in the animal world.
With tooth and talon each animal SELF
ishly fights for the mastery.
Men fight for success as fiercely as do
the brutes But they do not use teeth
and claws They use cunning and skill.
With their wits men fight as desperate
ly today as they fought with clubs in
the stone age. In the arena of compe-
tition they face each other as boldly as
did the giadiators of Rome or Corinth.
But there is this difference:
The man who fights unfairly can no
longer claim to win. Ii in climbing up he
uses foul means to push his fellow down
he is dishonored. If he employs deceit
and force he is not honored above the
brute, who uses deceit and force
Success today depends on how a man
wins it--and uses 1t.
IL in trying to succeed man betrays a
trust, or EFFORTS an unjust advantage,
or grabs more than he earns; if, in short
he uses the method of the brute. he is
put down as a brute. If he gains his
point by hurting others he is held to be
a human beast.
IT was not always So
But it is becoming so.
And, on the other hand, the man who

Boston, July 1.-THE nearest approach
to the Identification of BeresfOTd Hope as
Sydney Las Celles, the noted bunco man.
in this city, is the statement of one of the
clerks of local hotel, who says he re-
senbles him, and then destroys the value
of the identification by pointing out the
fact that Las Celles is baldheaded and
about so years old. while Hope has a full
head of dark hair and IS younger There
fore unless Hope has the Sutherland sis

that Hope was in Newport, but an effort
will be made to apprehend him there and
take him to Boston. Hope broke several
social engagements in his hurried leave,
and il was thought that he had decided to
take to cover. A telegram to John A.
Bagley tipped off Hopes whereabouts,
and II is possible that the arrest will be
made today.
Signature Denied by Hill.
The information leading to the ssu-
ance of the complaint was furnished by
Ezra L. Stevenson. who gave the Eng
lish promoter" a chase to Boston. Mr..
Stevenson went to Colorado Springs first,
where John Hin, the president of the
Great Western Coal d Iron company, was
supposed to live. John Hill, whom Hope
asserted was an Old acquaintance of his,
was found III Colorado Springs, but de-
clared he knew nothing of Hope or his
coal and iron company. Stevenson fol-
lowed Hope to Boston, as he knew the
latter had several duly signed stock GER
tlficates of the company which were not
filled out and could be placed upon the
market as bona fide stock of a regularly
Incorporated company.

Bagley, for some reason best known to
himself. started west tonight, leaving for
Chicago from New York City on an early

To the last, he insisted that Hope had

that he had seen nothing wrong about his

 MT. Clark left shis house, which is near the scene of the accident, last night to catch car from Derby, which reaches that place about 6:10 D. m. He tried to light match. as usual, but he miscaleulated the speed of the car or it's nearness for the car was up- on him before he lighted 1t, and the motorman did not see him until too late. He died within twenty minutes after the accident.
 Dr. Barnett, the medical examiner, was called. He found that the mans skull was fractured and he decided that the car crew could not be held respon- sible The car was in charge of Motor man Thomas Kinney and the conductor was an extra man. His name could not be learned last night. Both belong in Derby
 The dead mans body was carried to the home of his son-in-law, Clifford Hines, which is not far from the scene of the accident. MT. Clark was seventy years old He was father of MT. Clark of this city, member of the law firm of Jennings & Clark.
