WOMAN IN CASE IS AGAIN
JAILED UNDER INDICTMENT I

CINCINNATI, o., Dec, l0.-For the
first time the name Of Edgar S. Cooke
of Chicago has been legally connected
with the SG43,000 shortage in the local
office of the Big Four railroad Ior
which former Treasurer Charles L.
Warriner is in Jail under indictment.
The grand jury returned a second m
dictmcnt against Mrs. Jeanne stewart
Ford the woman in the case today.
She recently was indicted, charged
with receiving stolen money, and by
the true bill returned today she STANDS
accused of blackmail.
In the last Indictment Cookies name
arpears i'm connection with a charge
that Warriner, when he was first made
local treasurer of the Big Four, knew
of a shortage of $4,000 for which
Cooke was responsible. The Chica 90
man was at that time clerk in the
treasurers office,
Another aspect of the case is that al
though Mrs. Ford now is charged with
two criminal offenses she has not been
arrested on the new Indictment. Ihe
cause for the delay is put on the
ground that the woman is broken down
i'm health and that her arrest might
have serious consequences.
Mrs Ford still maintains the dehant
ATTITUDE that she assumed when her
connection with the embezzlement first
became known.

LANTERN EXPL0DiS;
THREE AUTOS BURN

Fire, originated by the bursting Of
a lantern in d box car in the Southern
Pacific freight yard. near North Main
and Redondo streets, last night and
igniting dripping gasoline totally de-
stroyed three automobiles, which were
to be shipped from Los Angeles, en-
failing a loss estimated at $4,000.
The bill of ladIug and the tags We're
burned, making it impossible to as
certain last night who owned the au-
tomobiles. The efforts of the police
to trace the owners We're futile and
the freight shipping clerk could not
tell who owned the cars or to whom
they were consigned.
AS is the custom, the autos We're
driven to the freight ward under their
own power and into The box car. Then
the gasoline was drawn from the tanks,
some of which spilled uu the floors
during the operation.
When Trainmau Albert entered the
car with a lantern there was an eX
plosion and the car was instantly
mass of flames. Albert escaped with
slight burns and rang i'm the alarm,
but the flames spread quickly, burning
the autos and the woodwork of the
box car.
Telephone messages 10 the various
auto dealers and garages failed 10
show any shipments last night and
il is probable the cars We're property
of individual owners.

AGED WOMAN COMES
TO EARN tiER LIVING
firing of Lie with Married Daughter,
She Ventures to Los AM
eeIes in Quest of
Work

Despite the fact that she is nearly
four score years old, Mrs. Sarah Egan,
giving her address as 1910 West Eighth
street, walked TO police headquarters
last night and applied for night S
lodging, stating that she was tired of
living where domestic felicity did not
reign and that this morning she in
tended to so to work for herself
The aged woman stated that she had
lived with her married daughter, Mrs.
Duncan Creighton, but that even in her
old age she desired to be independent,
and that after a petty quarrel yester-
day morning she LETT her daughters
home.
She went from Los Angeles to Ho-
lyWood, according to her story, by
means of 25 cents given her by a pa
trolman, expecting to meet a friend,
but was disappointed and returned TO
this city. Having cents left, she
entered a Main street restaurant and
asked for a cup of tea, but was in
formed that no service less than 10
cents was given.
Discouraged for the time being, she
appealed at police headquarters, as
serting that all she wished was sin
gle nights lodging, for she would start
this morning in search OF work and
show that her natural born spirit of
independence still remained.
A number who heard her story took
pity on the woman and believing that
she might be i'll or suffering from dis
illusions had DR.. Wiley examine her
DR.. Wiley stated that she was per
fectly sane.
Not wishing to have her remain in
the police station, money was raised
and she was given a warm room at a
hotel and her case win be further in
Vestigated this morning.

BOSTON. Dec. 1O-The erection of a
great wool warehouse by western
growers and Chicago business men in
that city has not threatened the pri-
macy of Boston as the WOOL market or
America and the second largest in the
world. according to a statement Is
sued by the Association of Wool Man
ufacturers today.
The Chicago warehouse recently
completed is the outgrOwth, 1t IS SAID,
of discomfort among some western in
terests with what are alleged to be
arbitrary methods of eastern wool
buyers. and its purpose is to eliminate
the middlemen.
The national association in its an
nual estimate places the number OF
sheep fit for shearing in the United
states at 42,2S3,205, an increase OF
9S1 .G57 over the preceding year.
The total wool production of the
United states this year is estimated
at 32S1l0749 pounds, an increase OF
G S631S7 pounds over last year. The
total value of the wool clip of 1909 Is
SIS. 500 ,746. as compared with S6l,fOG5lo
for 1908 Total imports OF foreign WOOL
for 1909 were 266, 409,3O4 pounds as
compared with 129,9oO,524 POUNDS ior
the year preceding. .
the world in 1895 was 2,692,9S5,! IS

He stated that the condition of the
vessel was such that he did not care
to go to sea aboard of her, and LETT the
EMPLOYMENT of the company after com
pleting his fourth trip.
The United states marshal has been
seeking Druillard ever since the IN,
quiry into the burning Of the Nessei
began, and the former officers testl-
1nony concluded the investigation,
which was reopened today after several
davis postponement. to admit his evil
denCe.
Druillard said he discovered the con-
dition Of the leaky tanks and reported
it to Chief Engineer Doe, who directed
that they be loaded only to the point
where the leaks were located.
This order was later countermandea
by Captain Warner, according 10 the
