them eagerly sought. The hint con Il
tanned in the presid ent's letter that &
financial relief legislation was assured
resulted in many inquiries during the
day to develope the exact situation.
It is admitted the president has con-
suited freely with leaders of both
houses of congress, by mail and in
person, but just what is the status of
his Legislative plans is withheld. One
point OF unanimity is certain. Every
senator and member Of the house Of
representatives who has called at the
White House during the financial dis

lkef by the issue of $50,000,o00 in
Panama bonds and $10o, 100000 in one

CINCINNATI, July 31.-Though a
lawyer and clubman, A. j. Cunning

j%uncture while clipping with Miss Myrtle
Dobbins, an heiress of P~roctorville, o.,

The two had successfully reached Iron

probate Judge ready for the ceremony
when the telephone of that official be-
gan to ring. At the other end of the
wire, 800 miles distant, was Mrs. Dob
bins, who urged the judge not to issue
a license for her daughter. When the
judge communicated the message to
the wedding couple, Cunningham looked
helpiessly at the pretty heiress at his
side and said:

The girl stared at him pityingly a
minute, then said emphatically:
I'VE came here to be married, and If
you don't know what to do, l do" and.

The increase in the salaries was made
at a secret session of the board just
after they received the budget for July.
BY the increase Secretary Cox Will re-

DR.. Clark asked for $2,5 500 a year. He
has been particularly busy of late TX
aiming candidates for the police de-
partment. The board could not see its
way clear to advance him 800. but
added $500. making his salary $2.100.
Some surprise was caused by the an
nouncement that the salaries of Cox
and McTague had been advanced, mas
much as the matter was kept secret for
some time. Why this was done has
not become known. President Bladder
said today that it WAS not his desire

DESERTED IN DEATH
ALLOW BOURNE TO
BE BURIED IN POOR LOT.
well-Known Member of Samuel D. Dick
inson Association Died
Penniless.

JERSEY CITY, July S1.-well-known
In life. but deserted in death. was the
sad ending of David II. Bourne, a
prominent member of the Samuel d.
Dickinson Association, who died at the
City Hospital here from the effects OF
a p~aralytic stroke.
Bourne never married and has lived
in lower Jersey City for the last
twenty years, boarding here and there
wherever he found the most suitable
place. Saturday night Bourne tired of
the boarding house he was in and
moved to a new one on Fifth street.
He was climbing the stairs to go to his
new room when he sustained a paraly-
tic stroke tina rendered him uncon-
scious. His new boarding mistress
found him lying in the hall,
He was removed to the City Hospital.
Before he left. feeling that he was go
ing to die, he told the boarding mis-
tress. Mrs. Prindle. to look out for his
trunk and above all see that ne got u
proper burial
Bourne was removed to the hospital,
whe he soon died. Mrs. Prindle was
quickly notified of his death. She,
mindful of his words, Look out for
my trunk" and see that l get a proper
burial" prepared to search 1t for
money.
The trunk was searched, but found to
contain not a cent. Mrs. Prindle, not
being able to find any money that he
had. called upon his good friends in
life TO see IL they wouldn't respond and
prevent him being buried at the ex-
pense of the city and in Potter's Field.
There was not a night that Bourne.
after his supper, was not seen sitting
in the Dickinson clubhouse with some
of the other members. In fact, there
was hardly a member of the associa-
ton who did not know Bourne. Police
Commissioner John Mitchell knew him,
as also did John Gallery and Colonel
Samuel d. Dickinson.
This Mrs. Prindle knew, as she often
heard him talk about the club and es-
pecially the men higher up in the as
ISOLATION. When she could not find any
money she made 1t her business to get
busy and go and see some of his
friends. Those n saw refused to con-
tribute personally and referred her to
the association. She looked for the
Colonel personally, but could not find
him.
Mrs. Prindle then. with her son.
Theron Prindle, decided that as long
as the former friends of the dead man
would not stand by him. that they. with
little of the worlds goods, would So
they called at Hughes's morgue and
asked If they couldn't have the body TO
bury It.
NO" said the morgue keeper. you
can't have II. Mr.. Bourne will be
buried tomorrow It the expense OF the
city"
Mrs. Prindle, When called upon last
night, was unmeroiful in her attack
upon the members of the S. D. Dickin-
son Association.
Yesterday afternoon Bourne, along
with three others, was buried in the
city's burial plot in New York Bay
Cemetery.
While poor old Bourne was being
carried away to the cemetery, his old
political friends were enjoying them
selves. some In the country, some at
home,
