TREAIfD HIS TRUST
 AS PRIVAIE PROPERTY
The Offense For Which Failed New York Broker Was Indicted.

New York, May 2O.-Upon the finding today of an indictment against him by the grand jury, Thomas A. Mcintyre of the failed brokerage firm of T. A. Mcintyre & Co, was arrested on warrant charging grand larceny in the first degree. He was released on S25,OO0 bail.
 McIntyre's arrest was made in the face of a vigorous protest by the physicians of the sanitarium where he has been a patient since shortly after the failure of the firm. After his arraignment before Judge ROsal- sky in the general sessions and the furnishing of a bond by a surety company, he was taken back to the sanitarium.
 NcIntyre's indictment is the out growth of an investigation into the affairs of the Mcintyre firm by the federal district attorney. The specific charge against him is based on the claim that a certificate of sixty shares of United States Steel stock, placed with the firm as a trustee, was put up as collateral by the firm for a loan which it negotiated on its own account.
 Assistant District Attorney Train said tonight that there were more than 100 complaints against the Me Intyre firm in his office, involving between S300,O0O and S400,000 worth of securities turned over to the firm by investors. These securities can not now be found.

THEY WENT WILD
 OVER W. J. BRYAN
The Missouri Convention lnstructs
 the States Thirtysi Delegates.

Jefferson City. May 2O.-Vociferous- ly applauding every mention of Vim. J Bryan's name, the delegates for the democratic state convention here to- day instructed Missouris thirty six delegates to the national convention to vote for the nomination of the Ne braskan. The delegates from the con gressional districts were selected by a convention of delegates to sixteen dis trict caucuses. whose selections were subject to the convention's approval.

another. Later when she wanted an appointment as teacher in the Philip pines she went to see Senator Platt again with a woman friend, who also wanted an appointment Afterward | this woman, Miss Wood was quoted as saying, made herself so disagreea- ble that Platt thought we would have to elope to escape her. But my sense of humor would not permit me to elope with 70 year groom whom I would have to support as he walked.
 Miss Wood added: T could not af- ford to antagonize such powerful in terests as Platt's and was obliged to put up with him to a certain extent. I'd like to have any one who thinks him a matrimonial prize to have been in my shoes for a day"
 Porter testified that on April ?. 1905, Miss Wood stated to him: T was afraid the senator might beat me out by agreeing to fulfill his promise and marry me, and if there is one thing that would be more humiliating than suing this old man for breach of prom ise, it would be to be obliged to marry and live with him."
 Porter stated that Miss Wood told him that she had become engaged to marry the senator in 1903 and shortly afterward he wanted to break the en- gagement but that she finally broke it on account of Platt's attention to Miss Janeway. his present wife.
 In a deposition by Frank Haight, Chicago reporter which was read in court, Haight quoted Miss Wood as having told him in an interview that she was unable to find Edward w. Rice, whose name was signed as of ficiating clergyman to the marriage certificate and that she sometimes be- lieved that the man who performed the ceremony was one of Platts secre- taries. In this deposition, Miss Wood is quoted as saying that she twas as- tOnished when Platt came to the Fifth Avenue hotel and announced that he was going to marry her, but knowing his craving for dramatic episodes" she agreed. She said the ceremony was a mere marriage contract.
 Edward Rowland. in 1906 a valet to Platt, testified to the senator's furn- ishing autograph signature on a blank sheet of paper for two women. The witness was shown a letter in which Platt is alleged to have admitted his marriage to Miss Wood and he ident-

TWAS A SNUB
 10 MIR. BRYAN
Administered by the Dem-
 OCrats of Pennsylvania
Delegates Were Not In- structed and His Plank Rejected.

Harrisburg, May 20.-After one of the hardest fights in several years, the democratic convention today decided not to instruct it's delegates at large to the Denver convention for Bryan. It was a clean cut victory for the or ganizatiOn, headed by Colonel James M. Guffey, of Pittsburg, the Pennsyl- vania member of the national commit tee. The Bryanites, under the leader ship of the Bryan league, had large following and they fought to the bit ter end.
 The sixty-four district delegates were elected in April and the state convention had nothing to do with them in the matter of instructions. There was offered an amendment con taining the Bryan plank of 1906 in the state convention but it went down to defeat, 32 to IT.

AN AMERICAN PRODUCT.
A Paris Crook Who Finished Her
 Education in This Country.

Paris, May 20.-One of the most ingenious of female crooks ever known here, who says she learned her profession ip America, was caught in Avenue de PAIma today. She was elegantly dressed and was accompanied by a stout nurse maid carrying a baby in a costly lace dress. She entered a rich apartment house, and, a trifle later, came out carrying a large package. A day or two later they remarked the same fashionable lady, the same stalwart nurse, the same lace covered baby, going into a house in the rue Fran cois Ter and coming out, soon after, with a suspicious bundle. At the door nurse, baby and lady got into a closed carriage which was waiting at the curb, and drove away.

Mir. PIatt in Court Denies That He Was
 Mae Woods Husband
Newspapermen Come to His Relief With Dispositions Concerning Interviews Which They Had With the Plaintiff In Relation to the Engagement.

New York, May 20.-Physically so weak that he practically had to be carried in and out of the court room, Senator Platt was at times a spirited witness today when he appeared to testify in his own behalf in Mae C. Woods suit for absolute divorce from him. His denial of all the charges brought by Miss Wood in the suit was emphatic.
 While the defendant in the action was in the court room much of the day. Miss Wood did not attend the trial.
 The presentation of the case for the defense aside from Senator Platt's own testimony. was marked by a sharp attack on the authenticity of the mar riage certificate which Miss Wood of- fered in evidence as support of her contention of a matrimonial contract with the senator. This was followed by an effort to show that the letter, in which MT. Platt is said to have ad- mitted his marriage to Miss Wood, was written over his signature on blank sheet of paper to which he had previously affixed his autograph at the request of two women applicants for it while he was stopping at the Hotel Arlington in this city in 1906.
 MT. Platt, in his testimony categOri- cally denied that he was ever married or promised to marry the plaintiff. He repudiated the signature purporting to be his, on the marriage certificate and the genuineness of several letters which Miss Wood testified came to her from him.
 In support of the contention that the signature to the statement acknowl- edging Miss Wood as his legal wife was obtained by deception, counsel for Platt today submitted an affidavit by Mrs. Dunning in which she said she had secured Platt's autograph by send ing a book to his rooms with a request for his signature. Miss Dunning said she gave the autograph to Miss Wood and that Miss Wood was delighted with it.
 4 deposition by Thomas R. Porter, a newspaper man of Omaha. gave the substance of an interview which Por- ter had with Miss Wood. Porter quot ed Miss Wood as saying that she was at work for a publication in New York and in 1901 was sent to interview Platt who gave her an interview and invited her to call when she wanted

That Will be all the Legislation On Finance
 This Session
Senator Rayner of Maryland Makes Final Appeal for Col. Stewart--AH Things Point to Adjournment Next Saturday.

Washington, May 2O.-The appoint ment of a currency commission com posed of nine senators and nine mem bers of the house will be provided for by a bill which Mir. Aldrich will in troduce in the senate tomorrow. If this is passed by congress, it will sur pass all the legislation on finance that will be passed at this session.
 This course was decided upon today by the conferees on the currency bill at the final conference, which demon strated beyond question that there was no hope of getting an agreement between the senate and the house on an emergency measure. Undoubtedly this decision means that the leaders of congress are determined upon a final adjournment of congress next Satur- day.

German newspapers republish widely a series of articles in the Cologne Ga Zette, supposedly written by a cores pendent in Morocco, indicating that military occupation by France is be- ing gradually extended on small pre- texts and that display of force are out of proportion to the requirements of orderly administration.
