St. Louis, Mo-, Sept. 21.-Julius

SUIT OVER GOLD
FOUND IN OLD BED

Milwaukee, Sept. 21.-An interest
ing story of treasure trove is on trial
before Judge Tarrant who is hearing
the case of Mrs. Catherine Bong
against Stationkeeper William Paulus
of the police department and Daniel }.
McGrath, executor of the estate of
Bridget McGrath. The case involves
the ownership of fourteen $40 gold
pieces which were found in the alley
back of Mrs. Bong's home on Easter
Sunday, 1905. The money was turned
over to the police department by Mrs.
Bong on the following day, but was
not advertised until the following
July, when she consulted an attorney
as to how to proceed to gain posses
sion of the money.
The money was found by two boys,
James Collins and Edward Harris, who
were playing in the alley. 1t was
done up in a handkerchief and en-
closed in a stout cloth bag. %he boys
gave the find to Mrs. Bong, who saw
them pick it up.
When the property was advertised
it was claimed by Mr.. McGrath, who
bases his claim to it on the following
circumstances:
His mother, Bridget McGrath, died
in 1892. Shortly before her death
she called her daughter to her and
said that she had saved little mon
ey which was concealed in her bed.
A IF
| S. bills were found in the bolster and
it was believed that this was what
the dead woman had referred to- TT
mattress on which she had died was
placed in a storeroom, where it lay
for 13 years. In April, 1905, it was
thrown into the alley back of the Nc
Grath residence, which is directly back
of Mrs. Bong's home.
The money, it is admitted by Mrs.
Bong, where the mattress had been
| thrown, but the mattress had been
! removed prior to the discovery of the
/ bag. The McGraths insist that the
bag of gold pieces was the savings OF
| ferred to by Mrs. McGrath. All OF
the pieces bear date prior to 1892.
When Mrs. Bong made a demand
on the police department for the re
turn of the money, size was informed
| that the McGraths claimed it, and
| Stationkeeper Paulus declined to give
| it up to either party until the court
should adjudicate it's possession and
the question of ownership. On the

garding the finding of the money ant
other witnesses substantiated her &C

it should occur.
General Crozier chief of the bureau

ago visited the Frankfort arsenal at
Philadelphia.
AS a result, considerable activity
has been displayed in getting ammu-
milton for small arms and light fed
guns ready for movements in case or
ders for such action are issued. The
ordinance bureau has on hand a sup
ply to equip a small army, but not
enough for a large army, and it is

1t is stated in other bureaus of the
department that plans for possible
movements have been proceeding for
some time and that any necessity carl
be promptly met.

The Government View.

Governor Nunez of Havana province
said to the Associated Press last
night tAat in his interview with Taft
he told the secretary that the govern
ment was able to quell the revolution,
but was not able, as Spain was not
with 100000 men, to protect all for
e4gn property in Cuba.
Il told Taft that the American gov
eminent with the established govern
ment of Cuba, and that alone, can stop
the revolution The American gov
eminent is now holding the future of
the Cuban republic. If itsAelps the
government 10 stop this revolution
there need be no fear of more revO-
buttons because the Cubans will see
that the United States will compel
law and order in Cuba by sustaining
he established government. If we
are compelled to yield under pressure
we shall lose our independence and
the future of Cuba will be as dark as
a tempestuous night. There may have
been frauds in our elections, as there
have been elsewhere, but as a whole
there is 70 reason to rnul them. We
cannot accept the liberals conditions
because new elections after a revolu-
ton would mean victory for the law
breakers and encourage others to
follow their example. We want
peace, not more bloodshed and de-
structiou7
