Hurd, who was not blind to his

proved to be true prophet The in

pie, who might as we'll have stayed

the identity of the assassin.
So after questions had been asked,
and evidence obtained, and details
shifted, and theories raised and pros
and cons discussed, the jury was
obliged to bring in the verdict pre-
dicted by Mr.. Hurd "Willful murder
against some person or persons I'M
known" said the jury, and every one
agreed that this was the only con-
clusion that could be arrived at.
OF course the papers took up the
matter and asked what the police
were doing to permit SO brutal a muir

the inquest was held, the verdict was

heiress. "A million of money" said
the papers, which was not true.

seething with the tragedy and
Ese-ss---ssssza strangeness of the crime Mr.
Jabez Pash came to the het-
erogeneously furnished sitting room
in Gwynne street to read the will.
For there was a will after all Deb
orah and Bart, who had witnessed it
at the request of their master, told
Mr.. Pash of its existence, and he
found 1t in one of the three safes in
the cellar 1t proved to be a short,
curt document, such as no man in
his senses would think of making
when disposing of five thousand
year. Aaron was a clever business
man, and Pash was professionally dis
gusted that he had left behind him
such loose testament.
Mr.. Jabez Pash went to the sitting
room, where he found the lovers seat
ed on sofa near the window. Sylvia
was in Pauls embrace, and her head
was on his shoulder. Beecot had his
arm in sling and looked pale. but his
eyes were as bright as ever, and his
face shone with happiness. Sylvia also
looked happy To know that she was
rich, that Paul was to be her husband,
filled the cup of her desires to the
brim. Moreover, she was beginning to
recover from the shock of her fathers
death and was feverishly anxious to
escape from Gwynne street and from
the house where the tragedy had taken
place.
Well" said Mr. Pash, drawing q
long breath and sucking his cheeks,

Paul laughed but did not change his
position. Sylvia. indeed. blushed and
raised her head, but Paul still held her
with his uninjured arm, defying Mr..

TO GET
MONEY
MILLIONS FROMSALE OF
PANAMA BONDS.
SECRETARY CoRTELYoU TELLS
OF PLAN TO SECURE MORE
MONEY.

Washington, Nov. 10. Secretary
Cortelyou has made the important an
nouncement that as a means of afford
ing relief to the financial situation, the
treasury would issue $50,000,O00 of
Panama canal bonds and 500, 900 900
certificates of indebtedness, or so much
thereof as may be necessary. The GER
tificates will run for one year and will
bear 3 per cent interest. The secre-
tary's action In coming to the relief of
the financial situation meets with Pres.
ident Roosevelt's hearty approval, and
the plan is the outcome of the several
White House conferences.
Secretary Cortelyou says that the
Panama bonds will afford substantial
relief, as the law provides that they
may be used as basis for additional
bank circulation. He also states that
the proceeds from the sale of certifi.
Gates can be made directly available
at points where the need is most
urgent and especially for the move
ment of crops, which, he says, eff prop
erly accelerated, will give the great.
est relief and result in the most i'm
mediate financial returns"
The secretary calls attention to the
attractiveness of the bonds and certifi-
Gates as absolutely safe investments.
Secretary Cortelyou adds that these
relief measures will enable him to
meet public expenditures without with
drawing for that purpose any appre-
ciable amount of the public moneys
now deposited in national banks
throughout the country.
Two treasury circulars, one inviting
proposals for the issue of bonds, and
the other asking for the certificates,
will be sent out under date of Novem-
Der IS.
In his letter to Secretary Cortelyou
approving the treasury plans, Presi-
dent Roosevelt states that he has been
assured that the leaders in congress
have under consideration a currency
measure, which will meet in perma-
nent fashion the needs OF the situation
and which ! believe will be passed al
an early date after congress convenes,
two weeks hence"
The president also calls attention to
what is needed most at this time Is
that the people should realize how
fundamentally sound business condi-
lions in this country are, and how alb
surd it is to permit themselves to get
into panic and create stringency
by boarding their savings instead of
trusting perfectly sound banks"

Hard Times for STAGE Folks.

1t is estimated in theatrical circles
in New York that almost 5000 actors
and actresses are out of work. Actors
and actresses may be seen daily In
Broadway vainly making the rounds
of the agencies. The financial strin.
gency, the dearth of satisfactory plays,
the sterllity of the playwrights and
the construction of too many theaters
have combined, 1t appears. to bring
about a serious condition of affairs In
the theatrical world.
