COPPER, TIN AND LEAD.

European Copper Consumers Pressing for
October shlpmeats-ActIVe Home Market.
Last week began with large sales Of copper
for home and abroad. BY Thursday the
larger foreign and domestic consumers had
placed contracts to the close OF the year. The
heavy buying took sew en- producers out Of
this years market. The domestic and Ger
man wire drawers and makers OF sheet and
rod copper and brass are well covered. But
in England, France and Italy the copper.
brass and funeicide makers are few who hav e
provided for wants to the end OF the year
During Friday and Saturday British and
Continental consumers pressed hard for
October shipments. But the available sup
plies for that month are inadequate for de-
mands. On Saturday a Birmingham. Eng

and Russia. A large lot Of old copper wire

year foreign and home brass founders hAve
been consuming all the old copper they could
get. The supply is decreasing the world
over. An American old metal merchant just

WOMAN SAMARITAN ARRESTED.
Brings Injured boy Home Only to Meet
Detectives.

Brings Injured boy Home Only to Meet
Detectives.
A large automobile containing three men
and a woman ran down Louis Brazerlan, a
ten-year-old boy, In Delaney street near
Eldridge street early last night. The boy
screamed and cried and a large crowd
quickly gathered in the street. The auto
was brought to a stop and the woman who
was in it climbed out and, picking the boy
up, carried him to the machine.
The men called out that they were going
to take the boy to a hospital. After the
machine departed some one went to the
boys home at ITO Eldridge street and told
his parents that he had been kidnapped
The boys mother ran excitedly to the
Eldridge street police station and reported
the affair. An alarm was sent out to all
hospitals and word came from Bellevue
that the boy had been treated there and
had left for his home.
Detectives Schwartz and Kramer were
sent around 10 the house to await the
arrival OF the boy. He came in a cab
with a tall, handsome woman, wearing much
iewelry and dressed entirely in white. Sho
took the boy up to his home and turned
him over to his parents. The boy had n
scalp. wounS n contusions about the
body.
The detectives attempted to question the
woman but she refused to tell them any
thing. They tried 10 get her TO go 10 the
station house but she wouldn't NOV and
declared that she didn't believe the men
were policemen. They showed their shields.
The woman agreed TO go to the station
only when q policeman Ia uniform showed
up.
Al the station the woman said she was
Mrs. Laura Hudson and that she lived
at l23 East Twelfth street. The police
dress wa a stable and that the woman
wasn't known there.
Mrs. Hudson was locked up, charged
with assault and with refusing TO give

Deserted In ISOS-The Other. occupy.
ing CASTER Home At TrumbulI, says
Hers Was q Common Law Marriage.

B~RIDoEPoRT. Conn; Sept. s.-Adolph
Cassier Of Dedham, Mass, and Helena
Cassier Hellman Of Boston, brother and
sister Of Louis p. CASTER, the magazine
publisher, who was killed on July 1 in a
railroad wreck at Salisbury, England,
ave Joined issue with Gertrude Spooner
Cassier Of Scituate, Mass, who says she
is the widow Of the late publisher and
that Agnes Nichols CASTER of Trumbull,
Conn, wal not bis wife. The relatives
seek to prevent a division OF the estate,
estimated at $500 900. ..
Lawyers representing the brother and
sister were here to-day gathering infor-
nation in support Of the claim that the
bulk of the estate is being concealed by
persons unknown to them and that Mrs.
CASTER of Trumbull was not the lawful
wife of the deceased. Steps will be taken
next Thursday, when the Brooklyn Surro-
gate will be asked to halt a division Of the
estate.
Judge Edward X. Nicholson Of this city,
who is counsel for Mrs. Cassier Of Trum-
bull, admits that she cannot produce any
marriage certificate, for the reason, he
says, that his client became the common
law wife Of the dead publisher under the
New York State law.
None Of the lawyers interested can say
with certainty whether CASTER was an Amer
lean citizen or a British subject, but the
latter view has the weight Of opinion. This
may cause further complications.
Prior to his departure for England In
June he is reported to a informed his
brother Adolph that in three months he
would retire from business, as he had
accumulated $500 900. Aside from about
$50 900 in life insurance and his publishing
houses no other assets can be found by
the executors.
There was an insurance policy Of $40 900
payable TO Mr.. Casters widow, and this
has been collected by the Mrs. CASTER of
Trumbull.
Gertrude Spooner Cassier OF Scituate,
who claims to be Casters first and only
wife, says she was deserted by him in 1895,
at q time when he was financially en-
barrassed. Prior to that she had lived in
luxury, but she became so poor that she
was forced to a X in washing to live. Her
counsel says that absolute proof of her
right to the widows dover will be sub
mitted TO the Brooklyn Surrogate.
IL may be that CASTER had two wives,
and it is also alleged that the Mrs. CASTER
OF Trumbull, who has retained possession
Of the magnificent country residence, may
be married to another.
Mrs. Cassier Of Scituate has the support
in her claim OF Casters Acknowledged
brother and sister, who say that she Ia the
real widow. They say their brother carried
800, 600 life insurance and ridicuIe the
statement that he allowed the most OF il
to lapse six months before his death. They
believe hat investments amounting to at
least s400 coo are hidden and they have
employed detectives to assist their counsel
IN a search for his estate.
