LOST IT ON THE RACES
DANIEL r. DELANEY, ACCUSED
OF LooTING ESTATE.

NEW YORK, November 2s.-Accused in
warrant sworn out yesterday by officers
of the National Surety Company of having
robbed the estate of Charles A. Coe of at
least $4,000. Daniel r. Delaney, a young
man ''of unimpeachable character" in the
opinion of his associates. is missing, and
although private and central Office detec-
tives have been seeking him for week
they have been unable to get any trace
Of him.
Strongly recommended and bonded by
the Surety company with offices at lis
Broadway, he was engaged two years ago
as confidential secretary by Henry E. Coe.
executor Of his fathers s1.OOOOOO estate.
Mr.. Coe is a lawyer at 50 Wall street.
Delaney's abilities were unuuestioned,
and very soon Mr.. Coe intrusted much of
the management of the estate to him.
He virtually had full charge aof the cash
account and collection of the rents.
When check came in that looked good
to him, it is alleged, he would either
forge the Endorsement of Mr. Coe or after
it had been regularly Endorsed, deposit
it to his personal account. Because OF
the confidence reposed in him, his ac-
counts were not scrutinized. and it was
only when he failed to appear at the Of
flee a week ago that suspicion was
aroused.

Roolrooms GotsMost of It.

Nearly all of the $4,000, the detectives
declare, went to swell the profits of the
poolrooms. AS now disclosed by an in
vestigation of his habits, he had the
horse bug in its most virulent form
At frequent intervals during the day he
would call up poolrooms and place bets
and Mr.. Coe was hardly out of the Office
in the afternoon before Delaney followed
him.
When his employer was in the office,
Delaney was most attentive to his duties,
but it is now recalled that the secretary
spent virtually no time there except when
Mr.. COe was in. If Mr.. Coe was out of
town, Delaney seldom appeared.
During business hours Delaney seldom
took drink. but later in the day, it
has been found. he was far less temper
ate. AS soon as he could get away from
the office he would hurry either to the
race track or to poolroom. Occasional
ly he won, according to the detectives who
have been working on the case, but most
of the time he lost. He was known as a
long shot player, and often risked as
much on long-priced horses as the pool
rooms would accent.

A Victim of the Thoroughbreds.

When Delaney failed to appear at the
Office a week ago yesterday. a messenger
was sent to his home. s4S Lincoln place,
Brooklyn. The apartment was deserted.
The furniture had been removed the day
before. and SO far it has not been discov-
cred where it was taken. No trace could
be found of his wife and baby.
There was absolutely nothing against
Delaney when he was employed by Mr..
Coe," said Dare A. Macbeth. the officer
of the National Surety Company who has
charge of it's detective work.
He appears to have fallen victim
to the thoroughbreds as soon as he got
his hands on considerable amounts of
ready money. The deeper the account
ants go into his books the greater the
defalcation appears to be, but probably it
will not exceed $50. 900. Our bond is for
an amount very much less.
Delaney was associated with r. G..
Furey in a real estate and insurance bust
ness at 232 West 14th street, but after
he became Mr.. Goes secretary he spent
little time there.

During the days that followed Madge

and when, after the expiration OF two
weeks, Hugh's letter arrived, she was stu

full of lively narrative and breezy obser-
vations. There were only two or three
tender passages and these seemed too
Tightly and t1owery to carry much s!sniti-

weeks later. 1t was shorter than its pred

One day she brought Madge a book that

but had not been able to find TIL now.
"Hugh had mislaid it," she explained.
After Mrs. Drew was Sol,e the girl set

picked it up-it was his handwriting. Her
heart beat unanimously. Should she
dare she read it? 1t was evidently a let

was in Cedarvine. The girl grasped 1t
tightly and read:

for perhaPa the first time in his life, feels
that he is playing second lead. The pro-

Madge Hunter comes Onward. There is

then a high. clear, melodious note. Madge
is whistling. 1t seems as though some
magic-throated bird is pouring forth Il

last lingering note dies away, then a rap

to respond again and yet again. After

her. Hugh Lawrence tries to find first

murmurS. 'Madge will be a belle this
season."
And she was not mistaken.
Among the many callers at the Copely
residence during the GLOWING festive
months Hugh Lawrence proved to be one
or the most constant. Madge treated him
With a calm, sweet friendliness, all the
more tantalizing to Hugh because 1t
lacked that homage to his destinations
which he was wont to claim as his due.
The season was almost over and Hugh
in a spirit of desperation, resolved to
speak 20 Madge. He was fortunate in
finding her alone one afternoon.
why have you been so unkind to me
this winter, Madge?"
"Unkind!' there was real astonishment
In her clear, frank eyes.
Hugh lowered his tone to a note Of ten

you forgotten those happy weeks we spent
together? Madge, you-you did care,

oh, Madge! You can't be heertless. Is
this all YOU nave to say to me?"
Il cannot say more" she replied, for

The days sped by IN wings, until an
other week had flown.
Mrs. Tompkins was beginning to say
sly things to Madge, when n evening
Hugh came over in great haste to an
nounce his intention of leaving on the
midnight train. A letter from his

that he join him at once.

Madge had listened to him rather

chill. She felt an unreasoning resent
ment at Hugh's Easy, careless amer.
Shall we stroll awhile?" he sug-
gested, later. His tone vas low and
had an intimate note half of tender
ness. Madge felt her resentment melt

They walked silently for a time. in
the fragrant darkness. There was no
moon. but the sky was thick with stars.
AT length Hugh drew a long breath.
Haven't you anything to a to me,
Madge?"
What should 1 say?" She made a
pitiful attempt at gayety.
Hugh laughed lightly. Well. you
might say, for. instance, that you are
sorry to have me go!"
Madge chilled again at the return of
his playful, bantering manner.

HEAT THE so.- FROM BENEATH
German Has a Plan to Increase Crops
of Eariy Sprino Vegetables.

DR.. Mehner. n German. is responsible
for the latest agricultural idea, which is
now the subject of experiment in Ger
many and France-that of artificially
heating the soil for the purpose Of push
ing the growth Of vegetables. 1t Is said
to promise remarkable results, especially
In the quiclSening of spring vegetables and
their development In size and luNuriance.
he method consists in burying at a
depth OF 20 to 40 inches under the field to
be treated condu.ts of carthenware.
through whicS steam pipes about an inch
In diameter are laid. Steam at a tenn
perature of about 800 degrees Is forced
through the pipes; 1t warns the ag in
the conduit and the heat slowly radiates
through the clay conduit, warming the
earth.
Leakage OF heat is very slow. Expert
ment rs said to show that when the sur
race OF the ground IS about freezing point
the soil at a depth of IL to 20 inches has
a temperature of AZ degrees.
Assuming that the artificial heating were
begun early in March, when this condi-
tlon existed. a very small expenditure OF
heat would be needed to cause the desired
stimulation, and the radiation into the air
would be exceedingly gradual. In warmer
weather the surface heating from the sun
would actually counterfeit the radiation Of
the artificial heat.
OF course the plan does not contemplate
heating the soil in the dead of winter
when atmospheric cold would kill any
plants that might be art.ficially caused to
germinate. The idea is simply to aid ma
ture when the spring sets In.
Asparagus, lettuce, young onions, Gu
cumberS, radishes and other spring plants
are the ones on which 1t is expected to
use the system with most effect. Later in
combination with forcing frames 1t may
be used on Strawberries, and experiments
may be tried on various fruit trees. The
method Is likely to be applied to flor.cul-
turs and the growth of plants for seed
purpose also.
1t is calculated that the expense of IN
stallation for each space of $3.50 square
yards in Germany or France is about $3.50
plus the steam generating apparatus
which may be large or small according to
the tract to be heated, and which may be
used for other purposes. The cost Of the
heating is figured at SIS a month.
The annual Increase in profit for the
same patch of ground sown with early
vegetables is figured at $500 on a three
months heating of the soil.

WAYS OF SAVING WASTE.
.ki,nmine River for a Living-Fisher-
men Who Net Corks.

FROM the chicago tribune.
Swimming a river for q living NAV he
said to be one of the most striking ex-
amples of the utilization of waste. This is
done in Paris. There is one Individual. at
least, in the French capital who makes it
his daily business to skim the Seine. He
is out at early morning in an old flat bot
toned boat, armed Wit a skimmine pan.
With this he skins off the surface Of the
river the grease which collects there dur
Ing the night and which he disposes Of to
a soap factory. Generally he makes n
quarter or so by his mornings work.
which enables him to live.
In Paris also there are a number of peo-
pie who make a living out of waste corks.
which they fish from the Seine. They COL
lect on the river bank at daybreak. each
with a short pole. at the end of which ia
a small improvlsed net. They set to work
TO gather in the floating corks. subse-
quently selling them to the cork merchants
IN the neighborhood.
There are about a score or so OF these
cork fishermen. who have formed them
selves into a sort OF craft and who guard
their interests jealousy. If they catch
sight of a stranger netting corks they fall
on him In a body. Only recently the po-
lice rescued one of these novices barely in
time to save his life.
The sweepings of a floor might well be
considered as SO much waste; vet. through
a fire in London the other day, which con-
sumed a quantity of sweepings stored in
the basement, a certain firm lost several
thousand dollars. The heap of dust and
rubbish contained silver filings. which it
was intended to extract later on.
This is done regularly at all works where
silver or gold is used. In gold refners'
premises even the SCOT in the chimneys is
not allowed to be treated as waste. 1t is
found to contain minute particles of the
precious metal, which are far too valuable
to be lost.
In places where sheep are bred extern
wool adhering to briers and hedges. These
are no longer regarded as waste. From
such wool rubbish. whether corning f>om
zheep &C goats. valuable oil is now ex-
traced. o..
