Oepositaries Here and Abroad.

Holders of the stock OF the construction
companies are asked to deposit their certih-
Gates with the United States Mortgage and
Trust Company, of this city, and deposits
may also be made with Glyn Mills Curris
& Co.. of London. April is set as the final
date on which deposits will be received ex-
cept in the discretion of the committee.
II. D. Estabrook, speaking as counsel for
Arthur L. Stiwell, who is president OF the
United States and Mexican Trust Company.
as we'll as of the Orient road, said yester-
day that The Tribune was in error in say
ing that a Deputy Attorney General asked
Justice BLUR last December for a continu-
ance of an injunction restraining the United
States and Mexican Trust Company from
operating in this state without a charter,
the fact being that the application was for
the issuance of an Injunction. and that
demurrer interposed by Mr.. Estabrook was
sustained.
Mr. Estabrook also took exception 10 a
statement in The Tribune article referring
to the Integrity Mining and Milling Com
pany, dividends of IL per cent Oh which,
according to advertisements, were guaran-
teed by the United States and Mexican
Trust Company" Hesaid:
Mr. Stilwell never heard Of a company
by that name. The trust company never
guaranteed dividends Of any company of
any description"

! ington, and two months ago married
Wilson T. Brown, Chicago cotton
broker. The affidavits show that Mrs.
Brown and her eldest son are set against
the rest of the Davis family, consisting
OF another son and two daughters, all OF
whom are younger than Newton Davis.
BIuementhal said that both Mrs. Brown
and her son exercised control over MIS-
Smith. and that she was in constant
need of care
Miss Antoinette Davis, the daughter
of Mrs Brown, said in her affidavit that
while her grandaunt, Mrs. Smith, lived
at the Hotel Savoy the latter was always
glad to see her. After she moved to
hotel in West 10Th street Miss Davis
called on Mrs. Smith. Her mother was
there, and according to her daughter
she remarked pointing at Mrs. Smith:
See how wasted her hands are. l am
afraid she won't live very long" Mrs.
Smith, who heard the remark, said that
she thought that her niece was watch
ing her very closely. Thereupon, said
Miss Davis, Mrs. Brown made the re-
tort, Yes, we are watching you every
minute, and we will watch you all sum-
mer, too"
Charges of Poisoning.
Britton Davis averred that his former
wife was always dspleased with her
aunt over some financial matter which
the niece seemed to think was due her.
Britton said that Mrs. Brown said that
"she purposed to get the money in some
way" and that she remarked further
that If she could do away with her aunt
without anybody knowing it she would
do So" Davis then goes on to tell about
Mrs. Smith saying that her niece had
tried TO poison her in Boston.
Britton Davis, jr., the younger son Of
Mrs. Brown and Mr.. Davis, who is ff-
teen years old, told about a visit that
his sister Natalie made to the home Gf
her grandaunt. She was not admitted
and sent a note to the room of Mrs.
Smith telling her that she wished to see
her. The girl received no answer Then
her younger brother called at the hotel
where Mrs. Smith was living. He did
not wait to send up his name, but went
directly to her room. In answer to his
knock his brother Newton opened the
door. They had not seen each other for
four years, and Newton did not know his
brother The younger Davis told his
grandaunt Of his sisters having called
opd tbot no sunnosed Mrs Smith did NOT
want to see her. The helpless old woman
said that she was unaware that her
grandniece had called and that she
would be glad 10 see her at any time.
Mrs. Smith also said: II hate liar;

despite this the speed was not lessened.
The next thing we knew we were rolling
and crashing down the embankment into
the river. The diner was next to the
last car i'm the train. The tram DroKo
into two parts. The engine and the first
two cars ran about half r1ile alons
the tracks bef,re they stopped. The
third car ploughed along the rails. which
were torn up for 800 or 1000 feet. The
last four cars went down the embank-
ment.
THE scene in the dining car was ter
rifying-the twenty or so persons in
there were all shot forward in a mass
together with the chairs and tables and
tableware. The smashed crockery cur
us and the heavy metal ware flying loose
bruised US.
THE car finally came to rest on It's
side, submerged in the water. The
ice there was extremely thick, and it
was that which saved us from going to
the bottom of the river; and to add 10
our danger and fright the gas range In
the kitchen at the forward end OF the
car exploded. The flames there cut Off
that means Of escape. The windows on
the right sic were below the water and
ice and the door at the rear end was
jammed. The windows on the left side
Of the car showed nothing but blue sky.
"A tribute must be paid to the struct-
ure Of the car" Mr. willard went on.
1T was Of steel. / hate to think of the
way it would have crumpled up had 1T
been Of wood; none of us would have

woman whose hands seemed literally cut
to pieces by glass. She was carried
out unconscious by two men who broke
in through the windows. The negro
porters, too. deserve great praise | saw
two of them. although cut and bleeding,
giving all their efforts TO help the pas
sengers.
Before I was taken out Of the car the
water ha6 crept in to depth of four
feet. We We're taken to the third car
which was still upright, although off the
rails. and It was turned into a field hos
pital I have no praise" Mr. Willard
declared, for the way the New York
Central handled the affair. Within three
minutes the officials at Poughkeepsie,
only three miles away, were informed by
telephone as to what had happened, but
It was two hours before wrecklng train
