Mystery of Disappearance Of
John Lloyd Has Been
Cleared.

son of the late Henry D. Lloyd and
grandson of the late William Bross,
millionaire and one time Governor of
Illinois. to break off family ties, leave
Harvard university at the end of his
sophomore wear in 1907 and complete
ly disappear with her.
The remarkable story was drawn
through compulson from the lips of
William Bross Lloyd, millionaire so
cialist and lawyer and brother of the
missing man. on the witness stand in
Municipal Judge Blake's court. The
climax to the 'rattling of the family
skeleton came when the brother was
| made to admit he himself introduced
the woman, known as Mrs. w. E
| McGraw. of Boston. to his brother
| who was then but twenty years old.
Seldom Referred To.
The disappearance OF the young
millionaire had heretofore been a
! mystery. In north side socitty cir
cles and in Winnetka, where the
| Lloyds have a summer home, John
| Lloyd's name is seldom spoken. Yes
| terday brought forth the first inklins
of the secret that has been hidden for
more than two years.
The revealing of the college vam

during the hearing of the suit of form
| er Judge Hiram T. Gilbert against
| William Boss Lloyd, of Winnetka, Dr.
Henry D. Lloyd. of Boston and De

a dispute if the $4,000. 900 estate left
them by their grandfather, William
Bross, under the terms of his will
could be distributed among them a,

kamr Banking.

The Kaf1irs have a simple method of
banking Before setting out to trade
they select one OF their number as
their banker and put all their money
in his bag. When an article IS pur-
chased by any of those who are in this
combine the price is taken by the
banker from the bag, counted several
times and then paid to the seller, after
which all the bank depositors cry out
to the banker in the presence Of two
witnesses selected, You owe me so
much" This is then repeated by the
witnesses. The general accounting
comes between the banker and his sew
eral depositors when all the purchases
have been made, after which all the
natives go home.

The commission feels that it is too
early to pronounce absolutely upon
this question. The Investigation is
by no means complete and moreover,
considering the Importance of the sub
ject. it should clearly be conducted
on larger scale and in different sur.
roundings in various parts of the
country, and perhaps also be check
ed up by certain Investigations made

Masked Musicians.

The Shakuhachi players Of Japan
are privileged class of itinerant mu-
sicians. Their instrument, kind of
reed oboe. enjoys what is perhaps a
unique distinction, it having been
adopted as a unit of measurement. a
sixth of a sen, or about two feet. A
peculiar headdress, something like an
immense peach basket hat, serves as
a cool variety of mask, permitting the
wearer to see without being seen-a
decided advantage to such people as
have come down in the world and are
undesirous of publicity. 1t also serves
as a further distinctive feature OF this
class Of musician to those who do not
read the descriptive matter which is
hung in front of each player.-Wide

One Bruce F. Stevens was on Tues
day at Aberdeen, S. D., held for trial
for the murder of David G. Mac
Kenzie at LIE Beau, S. D., two weeks
ago. Stevens claimed elf-defense,
but introduced no testimony at pre-
liminary trial. Mackenzie was son
of Murdo Mackenzie, a wealthy cattle
man of Colorado. Many Morris peo-
pie are wondering if the accused man
is Bruce F. Stevens, a son of Col.
Stevens, formerly the editor of The
Tribune. Bruce left here about ten
years ago and the last heard from was
in Dakota.
