that town. She had a long talk with
c. o. Bollinger, the sheriff. The
Messengers live four blocks west of
the Sapp home. Mrs. Messenger said

she heard screams on the Friday night
of the tragedy.

SCHWAB LOST MONEY.
Says He Is Out $2.7OO,OOO on Three
WarshipS.

San Francisco, Oct 17-Chas NJ.
Schwab the former president of the
United States Steel corporation, arrived
in this city last night. When asked If
he came at the instigation of the gov
eminent to arrange for the care of the
big fleet in December he said that he
was not at liberty to discuss the subject.
He said: Il am here to determine
whether L shall continue to operate the
Union Iron works or close them down
for good. There is no truth in the state
ments that a sale of the works to the
government is contemplated. We have
lost money continually during the three
years we have owned the plant. On
the last contracts for three warships we
lost 81, zoe, 900. We have been hamper
ed by a scarcity of labor and by indus
trial troubles. 1 intend to go over the
situation carefully and if I decide to
keep the works open they will require
considerable additions. The plant at
Mare Island is insufficient for the main
tenance of the fleet
Mr. Schwab thought that a feet on
the Pacific was necessity as this coast
was as much in need of protection as
the Atlantic. Concerning his invest
ments in Nevada mines, he said that he
was greatly disappointed in that coun-
try although most of his own invest
ments had proved satisfactory.

Agnew & Sons Are Purchasers of the
Ashburton Collection.

New York, Oct. lit is learned
here that Thomas Agnew & Sons. art
dealers of London, are the buyers of
the famous Ashburton collection of
paintings which are about to be dis
posed of in England. The price the
firm paid was about 100000, and
some of the finest of the pictures are
to come to this country.
Stevenson Scott of the firm of Scott
& Fowles of this city, who are closely
connected with the Agnews in busi-
nessway, saw the collection in England
a month ago, and he thinks that a
Murillo in it will probably be brought
to New York. This painting he con-
siders one of the most valuable by that
great master, in the world. Two of
the eight or ten RembrandtS may be
sent here, each being valued at $685.

by himself, and the other is a portrait
of a brother artist, Cornelius Jansen.
Yet other pictures in the collection

AT THE TEIEATERS.

An unusually clever play and unusual
ly cleverly acted-this, perhaps, would
be the verdict generally of the mem
bers of the large audience who gather
ed at the Grand last night to see the
production of THE Prince Chap with
Cyril Scott in the leading part and a
most excellent company to blink around
the star.
Those in the audience who would not
agree with this verdict would be can
tankerous only because they would con-
slider it mild one. For many of them
would insist that Cyril Scott, his COM
pany and THE Prince Chap is one of,
if not the greatest, theatrical attrac-
tions that has been seen in this city
for years.

the comment Of one of these extrem-
lists who has seen plays galore and has
sufficient intelligence to make her opin-
ion worth something. Her estimate of
far in considering the production as
whole, but there are a dozen or more
incidents in the piece and the way they
are acted which can be characterized
with no other word than "bewitching."

loves her in a way different from that
which exists between guardian or pro-
tector and ward and this new love he
has found is just new to the girl
so in pretty way they confess this
love and are presumably happy ever
after. There is much more to the play.
