Got Money From Lawyer Marsh That
Ore Time Ward is Suing For.

New York, Sept. 1.--Douglas A.
Stewart, who failed two years ago In
an attempt to have set aside the VIII
of Luther n. Marsh, the law partner
OF Daniel Webster, who In his old
age fell victim to the spook paintings
Of Anne o'Delia Diss De Bar, and the
trance revelations of Mrs. John ]. Huy.
Ter, announced today that he would try
to have his case reheard. Stewart,
q relative by marriage Of Marsh, lived
with Marsh for twenty years as a
ward, and he says that the old lawyer
repeatedly promised to make him his
heir. But soon after Mrs. Huylor ap.
peared Stewart had to leave because,
he says, of the mediums plotting. Mrs.
Huylor died before Marsh, but in a
will which Stewart alleges was forged
all of Marsh's property was left to
her husband, John ]. Huylor of Mid
dletown. Stewart is now SO years old.
People tell him he looks very much
like John d. Rockefeller, but he lives
in hall bedroom on East Fifty Sew
enth street and is very poor.

VIM, ]. BRYAN
WILL BE TAMMANY's CHOICE FOR
PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION.
Tim Sullivan Says Machine VIII Have
No other and That Empire State
Is For Him.

New Haven, Conn, Sept. LIN dis
cussing the presidential boom of Lieu
tenant Governor Lewis s. Chanler, of
New York, the New Haven Union, of
which Col. Alexander Troup, Mr.. Bry-
ans great friend, is the editor, has this
to say:
About the first of June the New
Haven Union printed story stating
that W. ]. Corners, chairman of the
New York state Democratic committee
and Charles F. Murphy, the leader Of
Tammany Hall, were about to launch
a presidential boom for Lieutenant
Governor Lewis S. Chanler. Now the
boom has been launched just as the
New Haven Union said that II would
be. Some OF the Anti-Bryan papers are
booming William Astor Chanler, the
former congressman, evidently got
ting him mixed up with his brother,
the lieutenant governor. The saluta-
,tion, of the obedient followers OF Muir
ply of Tammany Hall now Is which,
Chanler, are you for Lewis or Billy?"
Murphy is making the mistake OF
his life, in thus coming out to antag-
onize the friends of Mr. Bryan. Harry
w. Walker and Manton NJ Wyvell, OF
the New York State Progressive Dem
ocratiic League, have made complete
tour of all the. counties OF New York,
and say that, the sentiment is over
whelmingly for Mr.. Bryan. In New
York, Tim Sullivan, who is undoubted-
ly the power that keeps Murphy In
Tammany Hail. says the candidate
must be Mr. Bryan under any and all
circumstances Sullivan also told Con-
gressman Ellis James OF Kentucky,
who was here last Saturday, that Muir
ply could not prevent the New York
allegation being solid for William
Jennings Bryan. Chanler's mother was
an Astor. and the Astor family are
rich. Col. John Jacob Astor, cousin,
is said to be very anxious to be minis.
ter TO the court OF St James and that
he would contribute a million dollars
to the campaign fund. or course this
would make a very attractive candi-
date for those gentlemen who are In
politics for revenue only"

Dear Sir: People ask how many
square feet n gallon will cover. De
pends on condition OF building.
There Is great deal OF lying on this
point, The. stock claim of lying paints
is 800 square feet, two coats. IT'S n
lie. as a rule.
Devoe covers 300 to 500, our agents
think. We think 300 too low ard 500
too high; though doubtless, they both
occnr. ,.
How much the other paints cover
Is equally doubtful; we guess 100 TO
400. .,.-
The truth is found In another com
parison, Deyoe is all paint, true paint,
strong paint, and full.measure; the
others In general are, at the best, dil-
uted.. adulterated and short-measure
They cover according to body and

Interest Surprises Girls.
The pursers opinion is that many OF
these young women were servants who
had visited their old homes during the
summer. Every year many cross the
ocean TO see their relatives and friends
and when they come back invariably
bring some younger sister or cousins
with them and JUST by chance there
happened to be a goodly gathering on
the Baltic.
The girls, who came from Ireland
England, Wales, Scotland, and Norway
were surprised TO find that their com
ing had been so much heralded, and
when several newspaper men showed
them newspaper clippings which said
they were coming to get married here
many of them were quite indignant
There was quite a delegation of
camera artists. too. but the girls re-
fused to pose and lodged the cameras
every time they were pointed in their
direction. Only snapshots could be OBJ
tanned and many of these were spoiled
because the camera man was not quick
enough for the girls.

TURN DOWN FAIRBANKS
Methodists Snub Vice Presi-
dent on Account of
Cocktail Episode

Columbus Ind. Sept. 27.-Because
Vice President Fairbanks served cock.
tails with cherries in them at a dinner
given in honor of President Roosevelt
at Indianapolis last Memorial day. he
was defeated here today as a candidate
for lay delegate to the general confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal church.
which meets at Baltimore next May.
The prohibition delegates defeated
him because they said they would not
vote for a man who served cocktails
no matter how prominent a Methodist
he might be.
The action was taken at the quad
rennial meeting of the lay electoral
conference, held in connection with the
seventy-sixth session of the Indiana an
nual Methodist Episcopal conference.
The lay conference was to select seven
delegates to the general conference at
Baltimore and as Governor Hanly of
this state had been named to head the
lay delegates of the northeast confer
ence it was thought that it would be a
great idea to have the vice president
head the law delegates OF the Indiana
conference. 9esf
Every Ballot Harder Rap.
oliver Carson, an Indianapolis at
torney. placed the name of the vice
president before the conference. The
first ballot showed 293 votes cast and
twenty candidates in the running. Mr.
Fairbanks received but 70 votes, when
81 were needed to elect. On the sec
ond ballot the vice president received
65 votes and his friends Were panic
stricken. Lobbyists were everywhere
| in the church. doing everything in their
power to stop the stampede and cause
rally for the vice president The
third ballot showed Mr.. Fairbanks still
losing. his vote being but 10. On the
fourth ballot he received AZ and on the
| fifth his vote dropped to So.
The conference came near breaking
up in a row as the Rev. Mr.. Stanslelt
told the temperance members what ht
thought of them. They said they
would stand by their action and thu:
teach every Methodist to abstain from
the use of intoxicating liquors.

CLEW TO DYNAMITINC
States Attorney Healy Does
Not Await the Action
of Police.

Chicago, Sept 2S.-Following a trail
Of nitroglycerine bombs. detectives
from States Attorney Healy's Office
have discovered the lair of a gambling
trust. It is waxing fat and prosperous
apparently under the protection Of
minor police officials.
According 10 evidence already Sc
cured, Mont Tennes, the latest victim
Of the bomb outrages, is the self-ap-
pointed king of the trust and is hand
ing out protection to other gamblers
always for a consideration. Discom-
flied gamblers who are not in the ring.
according to the story which will soon
be placed before the grand jury, We're
responsible for the Thursday night at
tack upon Tennes' poolroom at 125
Clark street.
Mr. Healey began a thorough in
vestigation of the gambling situation
yesterday morning as soon as he
learned of the attack on Tennes' place.
He summoned Benjamin Hyman. at
torney for the Smith Perry White
combination. and President Arthur d.
Wheeler Of the Chicago Telephone
company before the grand jury.
All docket cases were set aside so
the Jurors might give their undivided
attention to the gambling cases. That
Mr.. HeaIey was well aware of the sup
posed agreement between minor po-
lice officials and the gamblers was
made apparent from a statement he
made before going before the jurors.
Detectives from the states attor-
ney's office. on the contrary, have evil
dence showing the telephone company
carried scores of telephones on its
boards which are not listed in the tele-
phone directories, because they are
known to be gambling telephones. One
man who is in charge of all of this
business, 1t is said. will probably be
an important witness in the present in
vestigatIon. This telephone official, ii
is said. in times past has furnished in
formation to the police about gamblers
who refused to do his bidding.
Mr.. Healy spent nearly all day in the
jury room telling the jurors of the
evidence which has already beer
brought to his attention
I'VE have no positive evidence relat-
ing to the bomb cases." he said. I'll
we can get any evidence it certainly
will be placed before the jurors. Ny
men are Investigating it, but we car
secure little that can be used In 6

has been found"
