Mr.. Jensen, who was enwrapped with

succeeded in smothering the fire, but
not until MIR. Jensen was badly
burned. By this time the fire had
gained such headway that it was I'M
possible to get in and, there being no
ladder, entrance to the upstairs was
impossible. Two of the older girls
saved their lives by jumping out of

bLACKMA|LERS
MAY Be CAUGHT
State Authorities Will Have to
Search Them Out Says the
Big Four

Cincinnati, Nov. 1o.-The alleged
blackmailers of Charles l.. Warriner,
former local treasurer of the Big
-Four Railroad company. who is ac-
cused of embezzling $643,OOO, will be
dealt with by the state authorities.
County Prosecutor Hunt stated TODAY
that he has investigated the charges
made by Warriner against man and
woman. and that he would proceed
against them if he was able to collect
sufficient evidence.
In the meantime. apparently we'll
founded reports maintain that the
warmer defalcations are far in en-
cess of the sum mentioned by Vice
PRESIDENT Harris of the New York
Central and that they may exceed
Sl,Oo0,000 and may possibly reach
$2,o0O,O00. These reports are sup
ported by the fact that the railroad
officials caused Mariners arrest on
charge of embezzling $54 500, and,
pressed later. admitted that the
amount would be at least 100000.
Whatever may be the culpability
of persons connected with Warriner.
1t appears that as far as the railroad
omclals are concerned they have no
intention of proceeding against others
than the. defaulting treasurer.
II believe Mr.. MARINERS state
ment." said General Counsel Hack
ney. that he had been blackmailed,
but we have only his word for it and
cannot act on that. That is for the
state authorities to do if they choose. :"
The whole facts in the case have
been placed in the hands of Prosecu-
tor Hunt and will be brought before
the grand jury on Monday week. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Hunt there is a perfect
case against both Warriner and the
man who, it is claimed. was the chief
participant in the profits of the en-
bezzlement. AS far as the two women
mentioned are concerned, both Mr.
Hackney and Mr.. Hunt insisted that
they had as yet no evidence to in
criminate them
The amazement expressed on every
hand that one man could unaided
Juggle the accounts of a great cor
poration for SO long a time without
detection was partly met today by
statement from a high railroad Of
ficial that big "shakeup" was about
to take place in the offices of the Big
Four and that an entirely new system
of conducting the finances is to be
inaugurated.

Thirty. Three and Third Per Cent
Duty in Favor Of England Because
Canada Has Found There Her Ma.
tfonal Sovereignty.

Detroit. Mich, Nov. 10.-James r.
Garfield. former secretary of the in
terror. and J. S. Willison of Toronto,
editor tf the Toronto Evening News,
were the principal speakers last
night at dinner given at the Hotel
Cadillac by the wholesalers and
manufacturers association of Detroit
for the purpose of discussing better
trade relations with Canada.
Mr.. Garfield pointed to the fact that
the boundary line being the United
States and Canada lis not frowning
with forts and guns" and declared
that the relations between the two
countries are of a preculiarly close
and intimate character, racially,
geographically and politically.
THE enromoIs development of the
use of water for power and irriga-
tion." he said, has brought up seri-
Gus question. The distribution of the
water power in stream flowing back
and forth across the boundary cannot
safely be left to the temporary sell
fish interest of either country"
Editor Willison said: Canadian
restrictions upon the export of pulp
wood and saw logs cannot be properly
described as discriminatory. (al-
though they do chiefly affect the Unit
ed States). because they apply alike
to all countries. And | am bound to
say that the provinces are unlikely to
consider any reversal OF policy and
there is no doubt that the movement
for a federal export duty will become
more formidable.
Canada maintains preferential
tariff of 33 1-3 per cent in favor of
imports from Great Britain and other
British dominions. Will this consti-
tute undue discrimination? We un-
derstand that Washington makes
separate tariffs for Porto Rico and
the PHILIPPINES.
1T is perhaps natural expectation
that the inter-trade relations between
Great Britain and her colonies will
not expose us to retaliatory action. If
the presidents decision should be
otherwise. the Canadian surtax of
SO 1-3 per cent will take effect
against this country. trade will al
most cease to flow from the north to
the south and all our relations will be
profoundly and deplorablv estranged.
You have the higher tariffs. we
have the weaker and younger indus
tries. Our trade with you is three
times as great as your trade with us
and our natural resources are legiti-
mate material for our national up
building. May l ask you also to re-
member that within the British en-
pire we have found ample national
sovereignty and that we lie evcS
closer to the heart of England"

CHAUFFEUR MAY
HAVE BEEN CRAZY
Now Believed That Camp Was
Mentally Deranged When
He Met Death

Chicago. Nov. 10-The fire boat
crews were again pressed into serv-
ice today when the work of dragging
the Chicago river for the bodies of
the supposed occupants of the taxi
cab which plunged into the river Sun
day night was resumed The continue
ed absence of Max Cohen and his
fiancee Beatrice Shapiro, believed to
have been passengers in the vehicle
which sank beneath the muddy wa
ters. caused their friends to abandon
practically all hope that they had es-
capped death. In connection with the
peculiar circumstances of the acci-
dent. the theory has been evolved that
the reckless driving of the chauffeur.
Ernest Camp, was due possibly to
mental arrangement. Those who
hold this idea point to the risidity
with which Camps jaws were set
when the body was examined at the
undertaking rooms. Whether the
locked jaws resulted from rigor NOR
tis or was due to temporary paralysis
is being discussed by the sensation
seekers. The peculiar actions attri-
buted to Camp by his acquaintances,
and the fact that his father is an in
mate of an asylum, form the basis of
the theory of insanity.

Someone has been Issuing circu-

Our reports from all parts of the

HAS TWO VOICES
Pneumonia Startles Parents ant
Amazes Berlin Laryngologists.

Berlin, Nov. 10.-Dr. Scheier, the
well-known laryngologist, related be-
fore the Laryngological society
bass voice in young girl, which had
come under his notice. According tt
the etiquette of the profession he was
obliged to conceal the name of the
young lady in question, which is like.
ly, however, to become known before
long.
1t appeared that when the young
girl reached her sixteenth year, and
was developing into young-lady-do
her pretty soprano voice suddenly
broke. like a boys; but instead o1
passing through the uncomfortable
stage in which boy looks and feels
such fool, the female voice was
changed quite suddenly into a full
and rather deep barytone. The young
woman spoke with a bass note and
could sing right down to the lower C.
Startled by this popularity. hel
parents tested her on the high notes
and found that she had kept also the
soprano compass, easily reaching the
high A, and with a trifle of strain
even the high G.
A medical inspection showed that
although in all other respects the
possessor of the double voice was a
properly developed female, the larynx
and vocal chords were much larger
than those Of ordinary females. the
vocal chords being particularly un-
usual.
The only deficiency in the female
voice was that there were apparently
some small gaps in the middle of the
female compass. From the middle g
to c the notes were somewhat hoarse
and strained.
.sH was concluded by the medical
faculty which considered the case
that in contrast to other cases of
female barytones usually due to tenn
porary disturbances of the female de-
velopment this was case Of fe-
male actually born with male larynx
and that no operation would avail, az
there was, and is, every probability of
the barytone voice remaining. There
was no evidence to show whether the
young woman would also retain her
clear and soprano compass.
The only known comparison is In
the case Of those youths who, having
an unnatural construction of the lar
ynx, retain naturally their treble
compass after the voice has broken.
But they In almost all cases have lost
the barytone voice altogether. 4

Then Suddenly Challenged the Wit.
ness With the Statement Which
Caused a Flat Denial of the Court
Record.

Paris, Nov. 10.-No servant ever
fought more loyalty for her mistress
than did Marietta Wolf, the cook in
the Steinheil household, when called
In court today as witness against
Nine. Steinheil. The defendant is on
trial for the murder of her husband
and stepmother. The Judge had led
the cook through labyrinth of con-
Trajectory statements and then sud-
denly challenged the witness with
this abstract from her ogininal depo-
sition: when Nine. Steinheil learn
ed that her husband was dead she
ejacuated, at last am free" With
out the least hesitation the servant
replied: "No, have been misquoted.
What Mre. Steinheil said was at last
am alone"
The witness insisted that the wife
was devoted to her artist husband.
Next to the prisoner, Marietta Wolf
excited the most interest in the COURT
room as In the popular mind she is
suspected Of holding the key to the
mystery of the Steinheil home. She
was the first witness today. When
pressed with specific questions by the

She could not, however,. conceal her
nervousness. She consulted frequent

The witness testified that Nine. Stein
he'll had known all of the Wolf chill
dren, but least Of all Alexander, whom
the defense accused. The witness ad-
mtted that her mistress addressed
Alexander. by familiar appellation.
Judge Devalaes, with considerable dH-
ficulty induced the witness to describe
the Steinheil nome and tell. how Nine.
Steinl1eil had. leased the green lodge"
In order that she might there receive
her lovers.
1t was after expressing an opinion
that Adolphe Steinheil was ignorant Of
his wife's intrigues that the witness
was confronted with the deposition
which she made for the police soon
after the tragedy.
