Strong Words.

Big words pass for sense with
some people and sometimes may be
very successfully used when nothing
else will answer, says an English
writer. Thus when a man, in great
alarm, ran to his minister to tell
him he could see spots on the sun
and thought the world must be COM
ing to an end, ooh. don't be afraid"
said the good minister, ''it's nothing
but a phantasniaGoria." 'Is that
all? said the frightened man, and
then he went away relieved.

P ARDONED AFTER
16YEARS Of LIFE
SENTENCE
Pennsylvania Man Once Con-
demned to Death
ALWAYS DENIED THE CRIME
Convicted of Killing an Aunt u
Years After the Tragedy Took
Place.

Philadelphia, Sept. 24-Alphonse
F.. Cutaiar, 81 years old. for sixteen
years an occupant of murderers' row
in the Eastern Pennsylvania Peniten-
tiary, walked out of prison today
free man, pardoned by Gov. Tener af-
ter clemency had been granted by the
Board of Pardons.
Cutaiars case has always excited
considerable interest, both because oil
the mans own record and that OF his
family and because of the nature OF
his crime, which was not discovered
for fourteen years after it was com
mitted
In 1879 Johanna Logue, aunt of the
man liberated and the wife of Jimmy
Logue, a world famous bank robber
and all around criminal, disappeared.
The police at the time were willing to
lay her disappearance at the door OF
her husband, but as no trace OF her
could be obtained it was Impossible
for them to act against him.
In 1898 the body of Mrs. Logue was
found buried under the floor of the
Vi the llleiN NhN i-O3uS ~
occupied for many years Cutaiar at
the time of the disappearance had
lived with his aunt and uncle.
Cutaiar was then charged with the
crime, and although the evidence
against him was purely circumstant-
ial and nearly fifteen years old he
was convicted, largely through his
own contradictions.
At first he was sentenced to be
hanged, but this was later committed
to life Imprisonment.
When he was liberated today Cuta-
lar sprang into a waiting cab and re-
joined his wife, two daughters and
son who have stuck to him with a
fidelity that has been one of the most
appealing phases Of the case.
Cutaiar has no plans for the future.
but his brother has a successful bust
ness enterprise and it is said that the
two will become partners in this
work, and now past 60 years Of age,
this man will start life anew and try
to live down the stigma that has at
tached itself to his name.

DROP CHINESE LOAN.
American Bankers Out of 100000,
900 Deal.

New York, Sept. 25-ln a carefully
prepared statement, issued last even
ing by J. P. Morgan & Co, Kuhn,
Loeb G. Co, the First National Bank,
and the National City Bank, the four
institutions which constitute the
American group for Chinese business,
it was made plain that the acceptance
by China of the offer of $50,000,000
loan, negotiated by A. Wendell Jack
son, an American engineer, and f.
nanced by Charles Birch Crisp & Co.
of London, had definitely ended any
possibility of the flotation of the $500
100000 loan which was to have been
divided equally among the United
States and five other powers.
The Chinese authorities were will
ing to agree to the terms offered by
the international syndicate, but refus-
ed to allow the foreigners to exercise
the desired degree of supervision over
the expenditure of the proceeds of
the loan. They also objected to the
clause which would have prevented
them from borrowing from any inter
ests outside of the six-power group
for period of probably five years.
The State Department at Washing
ton was primarily responsible for the
entrance of the American bankers in
to negotiations for fnapcing China,
and the failure of the scheme, after
months of patient negotiations, has
been a severe disappointment to Sc
cretary Knox and the Taft Admins
tration. While the local bankers, who
have been working with the represen-
tatives of the other five nations con-
cerned had no hesitation in saying
that the 100000 loan has been
made impossible by the arrangements
concluded with the independent bank
ers, there is a strong belief in local
financial circles that eventually the
entire matter will be reopened as a
result of Chinas probable inability to
obtain anything like the huge amount
needed for her rehabilitation plans
without the assistance of the State
Departments which have been work
ing in harmony with the bankers for
more than six months.
