Dry5dale smiled bitterly.
They won't convict me. Just the
same, I'm glad to see you, Mr.. Lester"

of course. need some legal advice"
I'm glad you admit that much!'
retorted Godfrey, with sarcasm. Il

No" answered the prisoner quietly.

behave in such a crazy fashion,?
That" answered Drysdale, still
more quietly, ''is one question which
must absolutely refuse to answer"

II know one thing, Godfrey" re-
turned Drysdaie, with a forced smile,
'-and that is that didn't kill Graham
nor steal the necklace So know they
can't convict me-"
Il wouldn't be too sure of it. Things
like that happen occasionally. How
did Graham get hold Of that button off

I'm sure don't know"
"You wore the coat that evening"

"And the button was on it?'
"Yes. I'd have missed it if it hadn't

ENDS HER LIFE IN HOTEL
Mrs. w. II. Brown Is Found Dead
With Empty Acid Bottle
Near RN

Mrs. Alice Brown, aged Al years, was
found dead at midnight last night by
her husband, w. H. Brown, when he
returned from work to their apart
ments on the third floor in the Hamp-
shire. No. S14 South Broadway. The
woman had taken carbolic acid, as
as an empty bottle near her indicated.
Two sealed notes probably explain
the motive of the act, one being ad-
dressed to the coroner and one to a
sister. The police refused to open these
notes however and their contents will
remain secret until today.
Brown is a waiter in the Saddle Rock
restaurant. Hotel roomers say they
can imagine no reason for the woman's s
act.
1t is understood that she has relatives
in San Bernardino.

LICENSE
Liquor Will Be Sold Next Door to
City HalI-Petition Held
Until Meeting Is
Opened

A saloon has invaded the heretofore
sacred and forbidden district of the
block on Broadway between Second and
Third streets and will be established
in the Copp building, which immediate.
ly adjoins the city hall grounds on the
north.
The license was granted to T. p
Roberts as transfer from his former
location, 400 South Main street.
Commissioner Ralph Hagan made the
motion that the license be granted
For some unaccountable reason DR.
Hagan had kept the petition In his
pocket until the very minute of the
commission meeting, whereas 1t Is the
rule that all petitions of this nature be
filed with the clerk.
Attached to the petition were the
signatures of number of business
men and tenants in nearby business
buildings. who agreed that they would
not oppose the proposition, but in spite
of that fact the commission used undue
haste in disposing of the business and
granting the license.
It has been the custom to receive all
such applications, refer them to the
chief of police for investigation and
take action at the following meeting
But three minutes after the petition
was out of DIR. Hagan's pocket the H.
oense was granted, the rules being
suspended on DR.. Hagan's motion.
1t is expected the commission viii
hear something from this action at its
meeting next Tuesday night.

RODRIGUEZ PUSHES RECRUITING

HAVANA, Aug. 28.-Acting Secre-
tary of the Interior Montalvo had a
long conference this morning with Cen
eral Rodriguez, commander Of the rural
guards. and directed him to continue
the enlistment of recruits and to push
the pursuit of the insurgents in all
directions.
The only details received this MORN
ing by General Rodriguez of the con-
ftict between the government forces
and the insurgents near Cienfuegos,
province of Santa Clara, were con-
tanned in the dispatch from Colonel
Vale, who commanded the detachment
of rural guards and the volunteers en-
gagged. The dispatch says the insur-
gents were completely routed, leaving
many killed on the field.
According to the report the insur-
gents were encountered at the towns of
Abrens and Bodas. Guns, horses and
ammunition were left by the fleeing
rebels, who were commanded by Guz-
man and Portela. The report concludes
as follows:
"Our forces fought valiantly through
out the engagements yesterday in San

FARLEY "wILL BREAK STRIKE
Two TrainIoads Start for Coast and
More Are Coming
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-James Far
ley, the strike breaker, has contracted
to break the street railway strike in
San Francisco.
Two special trains loaded with
strike-breakers left Jersey City at
10;30 o'clock last night on the Lehigh
Valley road for San Francisco. 1t was
estimated that there were 800 men on
the two trains which had ten cars each.
on each were four of Farley's detec-
tives armed with clubs.
Every preparation had been made to
feed the men on the trains and pre-
vent unnecessary delay. Great guam
titles of cooked food were put on the
trains. A beer supply consisting of
5000 bottles was on hand to stave off
thirst.
The men were brought over to Jer-
sey City In a special ferry boat from
the Twenty-third street station. MANY
of the men went without change of
clothing and there We're indications
that there was great hurry in getting
the men off. Some. it was said, had
not notified their families that they
were off on a long trip.
Arrangements have been made by
Farley. 1t is understood, to start an
other batch for San Francisco early
this morning.

COURT AT PETERHoF is DIVIDED
stoIypin Opposes Too Severe Repres-
sion of PopuIace
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
81. PETERSBURG, Aug. 2S.-The
court at Peterhof apparently is divided
as to how to meet the campaign of the
terrorists.
Premier Stolypin and his school, how
ever, have taken a stand against re-
preston on a scale which would drive
the whole population into revolt.
The premier's views are reflected by
the Rossia today, which declares the
government must not be frightened into
abandoning the reform program. 1t is
only necessary, the paper asserts, to
draw line between loyal opposition
and those who by word and act seek
the destruction of the government.
The Novoe Vremya proposes ''as an
escape from the horrors of the worst
condition of civil war to confer upon
the cabinet authority to prepare a con-
stitution which will realize the hopes
of the sane Liberals"
The Sveit continues to advocate a
concert OF the powers to suppress an
archy and anarchists.
Against these comparatively moderate
propositions the reactionary party at
court is urging a dictatorship, and the
Strana publishes a report that upon
the initiative of the council for national
defense an extraordinary conference
SOIneWndI Slllllldr 10 InaC WHICH created
the committee of public security after
the assassination of Alexander II has
been called to meet at Peterhof during
the latter part of the week.
The funerals of the victims of the
bomb explosion of Saturday last at the
residence of Premier Stolypin were held
today under military escort
M. Stolypin has received from The
governments of the United States and
all the European powers expressions of
sympathy and congratulation on his
personal escape. Even the emperor of
Japan has telegraphed his sincere joy
that M. Stolypin was not harmed by
the explosion.

ITS LIABILITIES
ARE s10,OOO,OOO
REALTY TRUST COMPANY IN
PHILADELPHIA FAILS
President Frank HlppIe's Sudden De-
mise at Bryn Mawr Last Friday
Leads to Suspicious Of
His Suicide
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 2s.--The Real
Estate Trust company, organized in
1885, the depository for nearly mill
ion dollars of the funds of the Presby-
terian church, and holding 100000 of
the money Of the city of Philadelphia,
and S175,000 of state deposits, today
closed its doors.
The failure was caused by heavy
loans made by the late President Frank
K. Nipple to Adolph Segal, a promoter,
on insufficient security. A desperate
effort was made to save the institution
by the board of directors through an
appeal to the clearing house associa-
ton, but that body declined to sub
scribe a guarantee fund of 900 be-
cause of insufficient security.
The liabilities are placed at $10,000,-
900, with quick assets Of $3,5O0,OO0 and
doubtful collateral amounting to $S,000,-
000
Geo. K. Earle Jr., president Of the
Finance company of Pennsylvania, was
appointed receiver and in a statement
to the public he expresses the hope
that he may soon be able to recommend
plan to depositors that better will
serve their interests and terminate his
services.
President Nipple was always regarded
as a conservative nnanc1er, Dut f0llOW-
ing his sudden death last Friday an
investigation by the directors devel-
oped the fact that his loans to Segal
had been made regardless of proper
security and that he had made false
statements to the directors concerning
the banks condition. Friends of the
president express the belief that Segal
exercised hypnotic power over him.
Although the cause of Mr.. Nipples
death was given by his physician and
the coroner as cerebral hemorrhage,
It is intimated that he may have COM
mitted suicide.
Persistent rumors that President Zip
pie committed suicide were borne out
tonight when it was authoritatively
stated that he took his life at his home
last Friday. Nipple is said to have
taken dose of laudanum with suicidal
intention. While still conscious he
filed his bath tub with water, and later
was found apparently drowned.
Mr.. Nipples family declined to make
any statement on the subject and the
physicians interested in the case de-
cline to be interviewed regarding the
suicide theory.

AWAIT EFFECT OF PALMA OFFER
Enlistment Of Volunteers by Govern
ment Has Been SUSPENDED

ment mas 6eeH suspended
HAVANA, Aug. 2S.-The enlistment
of volunteers by the government has
been suspended until the effect of
President Palma's offer of amnesty to
the insurgents. can be determined.
At the palace confidence is felt that
the great body of rebels who have been
carried away by the idea that they
were to have conspicuous part in the
overthrow of the Palma administration
will seize the present opportunity to
return to lawful pursuits rather than
jeopardize their liberty by further sup
porting what the government charac-
terizes as a hopeless cause.
Senator Dolz, the moderate leader,
following his conference with President
Palma, declared early today that with
the exception OF Pine Guerra all the
insurgent leaders were prepared to dis
band their men If assured Of immunity
Guerra is yet to be reckoned with. He
has some few men, but it is not thought
he will do much serious fighting.
President Palma's peace expressions
of yesterday have made a good i'm
preston, particularly among the busi-
ness men whose interests are seriously
threatened by the disturbed condition
of affairs.
President Palma's son has Joined the
army and his daughter has become an
army nurse. These enlistments have
also had a good effect.

University of California Astronomers
Make Calculations of Move

By Associated Press

Dy ASSOcialeu EreSS.
BERKELEY, Aug. 2S.-The orbit OF
the new comet discovered by Kopff at
Heidelberg on August 23 has been COM
puted at the observatory of the Univer-
sity of California from three observa-
tions made at the Lick observatory.
The preliminary results indicate that
1t will be many months before the comet
will pass it's perihelion, the date of peri
helion passage being April 23 of next
year.
At the time of the discovery the comet
was about 312,OOO,OOO miles from the sun
and 223,000,000 from the earth. BY Sep
tember IL these distances will have di-
minshed to 2S9,OOO,OOO and 2OO,OOO,OOO
miles respectively At it's nearest ap-
proach to the sun in April of next year
the distance of the comet from the sun
will be 104,0O0,0OO miles.
The comet can be seen through a
small telescope
