 ,...Whsn she first fell. in,6 their hands she told the police she was Frances Hollender, child of wealthy parents and pupil in Baltimore convent. Her baby stare' bespoke the role she assumed, but according to her alleged confession she was better acquainted with the reform school at Lancaster, Mass, than with the Baltimore con- vent, and had a string of half a dozen aliases.
 The West Side police station looked like dressing room of an opera house when the police spread out fifteen expensive gowns of Fifth avenue mod cling they had discovered at q we'll known hotel where the girl had been staying. Upon the discovery of her great store of gowns she is alleged to have made her confession.
 Only six weeks ago, she said, she was released on probation from term in the Lancaster reform school for the larceny from a Boston jewelry firm of two diaAlond pendants which she se- cured by representing herself as one of the twin daughters of Governor Foss. She ran away from the proba- tion officers, served as a nurse in the state hospital at Seward, R. l., for a time, had love affair with a Harvard student, and came to New York.
 She said she originally came from Chicago. but she would not tell the names of her parents. She was held in s2,000 bail.

 EIau from Battle of the Boyne,


 Flag from Battle of the 5oyne.
 The supreme dramatic moment of the memorable gathering tonight was the unfurling and presepkation to Sir Edward Carson, the chief propagandist against home rule, of the flag carried by King William at the battle of the Boyne. The flag twas greeted with frenzied cheering, contrary to expecta- tons.
 No Plan of Resistance Revealed.
 No new pronouncement of unionist policy was made at the meeting. The Ulster watchword is We will not have home rule," but none of the va- rious speakers or the letters of the ! Einfluential unionist leaders, which were re;Ld in their absence. attempted to reveal the plan of resistance, if such a plan exists. should King George sign the home rule measure.
 Lees Display of Militant Spirit.
 In comparison with the demonstra- tions held elsewhere during the past week. the absence of talk of armed resistance was noticeable. Also there was less of display of the military spirit in Belfast today, The day. how ever, was Q remarkable indication of Listers determination not to accept home rule. This determination was expressed in an orderly and enthusi- astic manner, which can hafdly fail to provide the government with food for serious reflection.
 Army Officers Want to Resign.
 The Weekly Outlook tonight makes the startling announcement that one third of the officers in the British ar- my are Irishmen, that over ninety per cent of them are unioniHt Protestants, and that they are not considering how to resign their commissions in order to lead Ulster in arms against home rule.

FORMER LTI-MILLlONAIRE
 DIES PENNILEss, A SUICIDE.
Speculation Had Won and Lost Him
 Several Fortunes.

Jonesville, Wis, Sept. 27.-The death of Edward Leonard Dwyer, who rose from head of street cleaning gang in Chicago to be a multi millionaire, and who blew out his brains here yester- day, just after he had given small change, the last cent he had. to a tramp, brought to close a meteoric career.
 Dwyer was once a member of the Chicago board of trade. He amassed wealth, but lost it in an attempt to corner wheat He developed silver mines in Mexico, and was rated a mil- honaire when Wall street made him penniless. In 1895 he married the Duchess de Castalucia, widow of an Italian duke, who had left her for tune. His wife soon died, leaving him the remnants of her fortune and sev- eral islands off the coast of Maine. He sold them and lost. the proceeds in speculation, being adjudged 8 bank rIpt in New York in 1899. He serv- ed an enlistment in the navy.
 He spent his last few dollars enter taining some friends in Chicago before he started to Janesville.

PLEADS CAUSE OF SOUTH.
Colonel TeIs New orIeans People He
 Wants Them Emancipated.

New Orleans, Sept N.--It was in the interest of the south, said Colonel Roosevelt today, that he came into the southland to make his appeal in be- half of the progressive party.
 T want you to emancipate your selves he said. T want you to feel free to vote as your conscience in- clines you to. If we win I want you to take your share in steering the wheels of the nation. I am less en- gagged in pleading my cause than in pleading yours"
 Artificial political barriers had sep arated the south in the past, he said from it's own interests. He appealed to those in the south who believed as he believed to lay aside tradition and join with the new party.
 Colonel Roosevelt spent the day in New Orleans. He rode in a parade through the old French quarter, and after luncheon in one of the city's old time restaurants. went to the Winter Garden to make his speech. Tonight he left for Alabama The Winter Gar den and the street outside were crowd ed when the colonel arrived. A squad of shoGzters who had come from Mis- sissipm led the singing as the colonel stepped on the stage and there was a demonstration which continued for several minutes.
 "One man said to me today" said the colonel, Well, of course, we all voted against you. but we were a11x- ious to see you win
 -Thore is no speech which l have made during my entire campaign which I have felt so anxious to make as tho one am now making. It is because F am not willing to admit that you and should be on the opposite sides.
 "The progressive party has come to stay. We are through once and for all with the republican party.
 T can't help feeling that if I fail to convince you 1t will be my own fault, for our case Is overwhelmingly strong. I want first to put our party on as healthy a basis in the south as in the east or west or north, and to have 1t respond to your wishes, because you are a part of it
 T come here to ask you to join with us on footing of full equality. I am not trying to appeal to the men who are opposed to the things am trying to do. The men I am trying to reach are those who do believe as I do; who ought to be with me, and who are arti- ficially sundered from me
 When, as president, came to deal with the problems affecting your in- terests, was obliged to treat them in wholly unnatural manner, for there was no representative of yours who did not belong to the party that was supposed to be antagonistic to me. tried my best while I was president to be president of the whole country, and should have been ashamed of myself if the interests of the gulf states had not been as dear as those of any other states"
