WEST VIRGINIA MAN PUTS in
CLAIM TO BEING ONLY SON OF

Martinsburg, w. Va, Feb. 9.-Elmer
Caryall Swope, of this city, who claims
to be a son of Colonel Thomas H.
Swope, the Kansas City millionaire
whose death is under investigation at
Independence, Mo-, told some details
last night of the contentious upon
which he will base a fight for the
Swope millions. He has retained
counsel and his remarkable story
runs to this effect:
THE Kansas City millionaire was
married prior to the civil war to
Miss Caryall, southern girl. When
the war came on, the family separated
on sentiment, and Swope joined
Union regiment, nis wife then return
ing TO her southern home. Six months
after the separation, the son, Elmer
Caryall Swope, was born. The mother
died of a broken heart and when the
war ended, Col. Swope returned to his
West Virginia home to be told of the
death of his young wife. Never told
of the birth of the son, he went west"

BANK CASHIER, UNDER CROSS
EXAMINATION, MAINTAINS HE
PAID STATE SENATOR $1,000 FOR
HIS INFLUENCE.
BY Associated Press.

Albany, N Y, Feb. 9.-The reputa-
ton of two senators is at stake for
which two of the foremost examiners
in the country battled today in the
senate. Hiram G.. Moe, the bank
cashier who asserted he gave Senator
Aids one thousand dollars to suppress
a bill hostile to the bridge building
combination, was under cross exam
ination for three hours, but failed to
retract his assertions
Allds's corps of lawyers tried to
show as the giver of bribe Allds's
accuser, Conger, might be equally
guilty. ..-.,
These questions indicated that it
was Senator Conger and not the dead
brother, Frank, vice-president of the
American Bridge Company, who en-
gineered the alleged transaction. Moe,
however, insisted he took his orders
from Frank. Several times the wit
ness seemed about to reveal others
connected but the session ended with
the identity of other legislators who,
according to Moe, received money, a
mystery.

CAUSE
OF SWOPE'S DEATH
Coroner's Jury Probing Into Death Of Mil
lionaire Says That it Was Admin
istered by Dr.. B. c. Hyde.

Hyde refused to take the stand. Virgil
Conkling, prosecuting attorney, at

copy of a signed statement by DR..
Hyde. Hyde's counsel protested and
Coroner Zwart, who was heard to
whisper to Mr. Conkling, Il must in
sist upon it," retired with the prose
cutor from the court room for con-
ference.
After the two returned, the coroner
said that he insisted upon DIR. Hyde's
testimony and the matter was ended
by the peremptory refusal of the ply
sician's counsel to permit it.
Miss Pearl Kellar, the nurse, was
then recalled. Once more she detailed
the death scene of Col. Swope after he
had taken the capsule given by DR..
Hyde. During Col. Swope's conyul-
sion, she said, a whitish, tenacious,
ropy substance exuded from his mouth,
although his teeth were tightly
clenched.
The Swope inquest was ended at
noon. At that time the sensational
inquiry into the cause that led to tine
death of Col. Thomas Denton Swope,
Kansas City's millionaire philan-
thropist,, was given over to the six
jurymen.
They retired Immediately to con-
slider their verdict.

The proposed legislation is designed
to prohibit dealings in futures on

Brooks declared that dealing in futures
is no more necessary than in wool and

Washington, Feb. 9.-John Hays
Hammond and D. J. Sully, associated
with several men prominent in the
cotton business in the South, are
planning the organization of a cotton
securities corporation. which prob
ably will have a capitalization of S1O,-
100000.
AS now planned the scope of the
new organization will be very broad,
for in addition to being a holding
corporation it will also become an
operating company and will go in for
the introduction of improved cotton
gins and other machinery which is
expected to have a decided effect up-
on the production of cotton manufac-
lures.
Existing cotton companies, say the
promoters, would not be effected ad-
versely by the new corporation; in
fact, it is probable that it will have
relations with many of them.
