.F|ANCEE's QUEER
DEATH bARES ODD
WILL AND MURDER
$4,000 Request for Lawyer
Who Sued Her for Breach
OF Promise.
Our Expenses are
lower than any OPP
tioian In town.

CHICAGO, June 9.-Circumstances of
a mystifiying and remarkable. character
surrounding the somewhat sudden
death of Mrs. Fannie Suydam Stelle, a
wealthy New York widow, in the
Palmer House here, where she had
been staying. induced Coroner Hoffman
to take charge of the body today to
make an exhaustive investigation with
the aid of the police.
According to the police, Mrs. Steile
became i'll and died shortly after learn
ing that Edgar A. Acceta, a young
singer and lawyer, of New York, who
is reported to have accompanied her
to Chicago, had been arrested as q wit
ness in a murder mystery. Acceta once
sued Mrs. Stelle for $50. 900 for alleged
breach of promise to marry.
The police are trying to determine
whether the report Is true they have
received that Mrs. STEELE came to CHI
cage to pay $25, 900 in cash to Acceta. n
settlement of the suit that he brought
against her. but which was abruptly
discontinued some time ago. That
amount of money and diamonds valued
at $50, 900 were found sewed in n
woman's garments.
Whether the woman knew he man
whose murder Acceta witnessed, and
in which he was arrested subsequently,
as a witness, has not been established
by the police so far, but they are in
~vestigating along this line. h police
are inclined to believe that Mrs. STEELE
did not know him. He was Filippo
Catalano.
IL. 49, I-Aaro~~ md A.
ceta had been drinking wine shot and
killed Catalano. The murderer escaped,
but Acceta was arrested. When Mrs.
STEELE heard of his implication she be-
came faint and her i'll. Three ply
sicians were called to attend her, but.
despite their efforts, she died.
The police are convinced that the
murder has an indirect connection with
Mrs. STEELE. 1t has been rumored that
Acceta came to Chicago with Mrs.
STEELE to have her settle $4,000 on him.
He is a beneficiary to that amount In
her will. 1t is said that she intended
paving him the money and striking the
clause from her will.
The police say they have learned that
the woman did come to Chicago to
make alterations in her will. Her at
torney was Nicholas Michels, assistant
States attorney. He was consulted by
her on the matter. but TO what extent
cannot now be learned. He was un-
able to follow out her instructions be-
cause Of his Investigation of graft
stories concerning Chicago officials.
A few hours after Mrs. STEELE died
her will was opened and a bequest of
$4,000 to Acceta vas found. Acceta
was said to be with her up to three
hours Of her death.

maliciously at the damage 1t Is doing.

who have as much right to grow up
and be good citizens as has the dimpled
little darling Of yours.
1t isn't fair to those babies to let
them suffer, even II certain folks are
to blame. Just a little fresh air and
sunshine and milk is all they need to
give them a good. lively start on the
road to health. Three years 6 the
EVENING STAR thought this all out,
and it was then hat the Sick Babies
Fund was inaugurated, n once a
week all during the hot weather the
good ship Newark carried hundreds of
pale, weary mothers and wan, puny
babies down the river and out through
the two bays TO Coney Island.
It was the contributions of many,
many generous people that made these
excursions possible. Fresh, wholesome
rolls. frankfurters and pure, rich milk
were provided all summer long by in
terested business men. Checks of all
denominations came tumbling in, to be
received with Joy by the man in charge
of the fund. Every dollar meant just
so much more health and happiness
for some tiny tot and its tired mother.
On the downward trips h babies
were fretful at first, but long before the
island was reached the influence Of the
good, sweet milk and the fresh, salt
breezes served to close their eyelids in
the best sleep they had ever known.
And actually. to the great Joy Of the
mothers, the waxen cheeks would show
O tinge of faintest pink. which in most
cases developed into healthy red be-
fore the summer ended.
Excursions Arc Popular.
Don't you think that was a pretty
good work?

Sympathy Of Community
 Goes Out To Amos Family

The funeral over the remains
 of Willie Amos, held at the Bap-
 tist church yesterday afternoon at 3::30 o'clock, was probably the most largely attended service of the kind upon the occasion of the death of youth that has ever been held in the city. The seat ing capacity of the church was entifely inadequate and even after the aisles had been filled with chairs many stood around the entire wall on either side and in the rear of the room and Ton the steps leading to the church. all desirous by their presence of expressing their syhpathyto the bereaved family and paying their last respects to the deceased. Flowers were in profusion, the altar, the pulpit and the casket being solid embankment, some of them wreathed into set pieces and some of them scarcely more than simple rosebud given by some play mate, but every one a tribute to the memory of the boy for whom the veil of futurity has been lifted.
 The funeral sermon was del ivered by the pastor, Rev. c. Sidney Maddox, and the music was furnished by the Baptist choir.
 The doors Of the Salt River Valley bank remained closed dur ing the afternoon, Mr. Amos, the father, being one of the directors of that ingtitution. During the funeral at the curch there was a perceptible full in all the husi- ness houses, and one of the not iceable things during the services was the large number of busi- ness men present. A large con- course og sorrowing friends fol- lowed the remains to the Mesa cemetery, where burial took place.

 We are ia favor of such a movement and hope it can be ar- ranged, it will be something to advertise our town. People who go through the town without learning the resources of Hol- brook. think it only a small stat ion on the railroad with no re- sources but those visible. Nothing farther from the truth than this. Holbrook, is the COMMERCIAL CENTER OF NORTHERN ARI- IONA. This statement is not talk but we have plenty of. evi- dence to prove it.

The Explanation.

 The inquiry is made of The Star why the people of a rock r1bbed Republican state like Wis consin" should have elected La Toilette governor twice and then should have sent him to the Sen- ate.
 The answer is fairly simple. In any intelligent state the maj ority of the people are progress ives without regard to party lines provided they can find competent progressive leadership. That IS why Stubbs and Hadly have won.
