$4,000 IN BONDS MISSING.
Suicide Representative Brother Says
He Was a Defaulter,

PHILADELPHIA. January 1.-THE late
Representative Robert Adams jr., of this
city, who committed suicide in his apart
ments in Washington last year by shooting,
was today declared in the orphans court
here to have been defaulter to the amount
of $4,000. The startling assertion was made
during argument in surcharge proceed
ings brought against H. Carlton Adams,
surviving executor and trustee of the es-
tate of his father, Robert Adams, ST., by
his stepmother, Mrs. Robert Adams, ST.,
and his stepsister Mrs. Charles Moran of
New York.
Counsel for H. Carlton Adams told the
court he would show that Representative
Adams had appropriated to his own use
$4,000 worth of bonds belonging to the es-
tate of Robert Adams, Sr., and H. Carlton
Adams. 1t was stated the representative
and Fl. Carlton Adams had keys to a safe
deposit box in which the alleged missing
bonds had been kept, and that as far back
as five years II. Carlton Adams had dis
covered that Pennsylvania canal bonds
We're missing. He notified his brother Rob-
ert, and the matter was fixed up. Suisse
quently, II. Carlton Adams condition be-
came such that he could not attend to bust
ness, and matters were left in the hands
of the representative
A broker testified that Representative
Adams had pledged Pennsylvania Canal
Company bonds, valued at $4,000, for a
loan of $1,000. OF the remaining bonds, val
ued at about $4,000, no trace has been
found.
1t was also claimed that part of the ac-
cumulated income of his fathers estate, of
which Representative Adams had charge,
was unaccounted for.
In proof of his assertion the attorney for
II. Carlton Adams produced in court let
ter from the suicide, written in Washington
the day he ended his life, in which he said
he was sorry he had caused mess and
urged no haJJ
responsible for any securities that might be
missed.
1t is thought that counsel upon instruc-
tons of the court, will be able to come to a
satisfactory agreement without further air
ing the affairs of the dead statesman in
court.

Founder of Monday Rest" Tells New
York Women of Its Work.

NEW YORK, January 17.-"Men have
their downtown clubs where they lunch in
comfort Why shouldn't stenographers and
typevriters have like privileges?"
This was the keynote of Rev. w. Mon
tague Greer vicar of st. Paul's Chapel,
yesterday when he addressed a gathering
of women in the church house of St. Pauls,
- Vesey street. A hundred women from
offices in the neighborhood showed great
interest in the story of such associa
ton in Chicago, as told by Mrs. Harriet
Potter Nourse, one of the founders of
the club.
DR.. Greer declared his words had been
misunderstood regarding the proposed

Mrs. Nourse who addressed the meeting
said that the Chicago club was begun with
the purpose of furnishing luncheons at

appreciated enlarged. Nothing on our
menu costs over ) cents-roast beef chops
and other dishes that cost twice as much
in the nearby restaurants. We served tea
and coffee at cents.
IF a girl brought her own lunch she
could get a cup of coffee and eat in COM

quarters. We had ten rooms in the Chicago
Athletic Club building and we added six
more.

POINT FOR PATRICK.
Embalmed Corpse Shows Lungs Per,
meated by the Fluid.

NEW YORK. January Nv. M. X. Oh
colt of counsel for Albert I. Patrick SAID
Yesterday that he would confer soon Win
ex-Gov David B. HILL who had charge OIL
the Patrick case before he was taken Ill
last year, as to taking up the case Win
Gov. Hughes in the near future, In view
of what he considers "indisputable ocular
proof that embalming fluid injected into
the hody does reach and permeate the
lungs
The appearance of congestion in the lungs
of William Marsh Rice, whom Patrick was
convicted of numbering, was ATTRIBUTED by
medical witnesses for the prosecution 10
crloroform The defense maintained that
the embalming fluid which had been in
iected before there was a chance LOT an
autopsy was responsible. In reJolnder II
was maintained that the Huiu ulu hol pei
meate the lungs.
Mr.. Olcott said that DR.. William Smith,
a demonstration of anatomy connected with
a school of oSteopathy at klrksVllle, MO,
came to his office three weeks ago and
said he had just heard that the Patrick
case hinged on the question whether en-
balming fluid enters the lungs DIR. Smltn
explained that in his capacity as anatomlst
for the school he had embalmed more than
a thousand bodies and had taken an N-ray
photograph long before Rice was murdered
which showed the lungs of an embalmed
body full of the injected material. The
osteopathist produced the photograph ne
had taken but Mr.. OlcOtt said he WASH t
much interested because such photograph
might easily be manufactured. DIR. Smith
returned the next day with the glass plate
from which the photograph was made and
the LAWYER Immediately bought it.
IF we had had this negative before
Recorder Golf when we made the apphca-
ton for a new trial last year we would
have undoubtedly got a new trial, for there
is nothing so convincing and indisputable
as ocular proof, said Mr.. Olcott yester-
day.
Advance copies of the Sunnyside, an I'M
dertakers' trade journal, which devotes
many pages to an interview with DR.. Smith
concerning his discoveries, and reproduces
his X-ray photographs, were sent to the
newspapers yesterday at the request OF
Mrs Patrick.
