The bank on which the check was

the checks has considerable &C

why the bank o GERS dissembled their

PRESIDENT Must
GET new HONE
Cottage at Beverly Must Be
Given Up As Summer
Capitol

Beverly, Mass, Oct. 5-Recent ru-
mors to the effect that President Taft
would have to move from the hand
some cottage he has occupied the last
two summers, overlooking the wat
ers of Salem Bay, were verified to-
day. House hunting, as conse-
quence, has taken prominent place
in the daily program for the last two
weeks of vacation.
1t is not secret that the, ,presi-
dent wanted to remain in his present
location during the two years more
of his term Of office. His lease ex-
pires with the close Of the present
season, however. and Mrs. Robert
Dawson Evans, VINO owns the cottage.
has stated that she does not care to
renew it. It is said that Mrs. Evans
intends to tear down the cottage and
make the place where It stands into
an Italian garden.
Mrs. Evans occupies the cottage
adjoining the presidents. She is one
OF the twelve richest women In the
United States. The rental Of the
cottage, though considerable under
ordinary circumstances, means moth
ing to her. The cottage obscures the
full sweep of the ocean view that
she desires and it must 60.
It had been reported that Mrs.
Evans objected to having her guests
stopped or scrutinized by the secret
service officials.
Beverly will continue to. be the
summer capital, SO far as the execu-
tive ofices are concerned, regard!
less of whether the new cottage is
located within the city limits or not.
Both the president and Mrs. Taft
have many friends along this section
of the north shore and they do not
care to move to an entirely new loca-
tion. The social side Of their sum-
mers in Beverly has been very at
tractive to them.
The president has not yet given up
the idea of making flying trip to
the Panama canal next month. Mr..
Taft announced today that II he should
find himself unable at the last min
ute to make the trip in November.
he will visit the canal Immediately
after the adjournment Of congress on
March 4, next.
President Taft continues to hear
favorable reports from Canada re-
garding the feeling there toward reci-
procity with this country. The pre-
liminary negotiations are going ahead
smoothly and 1t. will not be long now
before the conferees are announced.
The president hopes to be able to
attend one of the world series Of base
ball games between the Chicago Ma
tional league and the Philadelphia
American league clubs. The chances
are that the president will see the
game on Saturday. the twenty-second.

as defendant in 100000 breach Of
promise suit brought by Esther

Anthon professor Of Latin language

CHOLERA CASE
ON ITALIAN: SHIP
Extra Precautions Are Being
Taken to Prevent Intro.
duction in This Country

New York, Oct. 5.-The steamship
Santa Anna from French and Italian
ports now detained at quarantine,
had a case of cholera aboard. The
victim, a man in the steerage, died on
September 25 and was buried at sea.
Two other cases of intestinal trouble
are under observation.
Meanwhile the SAINT Anna, carrying
224 first cabin passengers. some of
them prominent Americans, and 1912
in the steerage, is held as a possible
cholera carrier" pending further in
vestigation.
Announcement of the foregoing was
made last night by DR.. A. H. Doty,
health officer of the port, who has
been fighting to keep cholera out of
this country during the epidemic
abroad. In addition to the SAINT Anna
he has as precaution the steamer
Noltke, from Genoa and Naples de-
tanned and the steamship Virginia
from Naples. He will hold a confer
ence with DR.. Walter Weyman. sur
geon general of the United States
marine hospital service. Together
they will map out campaign Of pro-
lection.
MIR. Doty's statement discloses not
only that cholera patient died aboard
the SAINT Anna but that a steerage
passenger, "a suspicious case" re-
moved from the steamship Germania
on September 26, subsequently died on
Swineburne island. Examination in
dicated, says DR.. Doty, that this also
was cholera case. DIR. Doty's state
ment YVES issued after an examination
of the Santa Anna, which arrived
from Marseilles. Naples and Palermo.
The ships surgeons presented a re-
port Of the death in the steerage
caused by gastro-intestinal affection.
The victim died within, three days.
DR.. Doty, commenting on the case,
said:
"The history of the case indicates
very clearly that the man died of
cholera. No other cases have de-
veloped on the voyage. but there are
two cases of intestinal trouble among
the steerage passengers at present.
Cultures have been taken in these
cases and the bacte geological exam
ination thus far shows no evidence Of
cholera. The final result will be
ready tomorrow morning. The in
spection and examination Of the Santa
Anna shows that everything has been
