SETTLING ESTATE
IN MOSCOW, RUSSIA
Former Senator Scott Represent
ing Heirs in Enoch
Emery Case.

Former Senator Nathan B. Scott,
president OF the Continental Trust Com
pany of this city, has arrived in Mos
COW. Russia, having gone there to assist
in the settlement of the estate of Enoch
Emery, a rich American who died In
Moscow, four gears ago.
Mr.. Emery was insane at the time OF
his death, and, although he left a will,
the Russian minister of justice was un-
able to decide whether the testator was
sound Of mind when the document was
executed. He therefore held the estate
intact until the heirs at law were able
to come to an agreement.
Mr.. Scott is associated with o. Kill
burn, a New York banker; in the settle
ment of the estate, the heirs having
requested them to arrange the matter
with the Russian authorities.
The case of Enoch Emery excited
much attention in 1906, when he mys
teriously disappeared from Paris. He
was discovered later at Dusseldorf anc
subsequently returned. to Russia. Hi:
many lapses of memory and eccentric
conduct caused his Incarceration in tht
tSate Lunatic Asylum, Moscow.

ONLY ONE ELEPHANT
EVER TAUGHT HOW
TO TOSS BASEBALL
Required Two Winters Of
Steady Practice to Teach
Koko the Trick.

There is only one elephant in the
baseball. She is Koko, born in captivity
ten gears ago. Harry l. Mooney, boss
of the pachydermal department Of the
Barnum & Bailey circus. taught her to
perform the feat.
The elephant ball game is one of the
seasons feature acts of the greatest
show on earth and koko is the indi-
vidual star OF the game.
Il don't believe the ordinary man un-
derstands what a remarkable achieve
ment has been accomplished in per-
suading ar elephant to throw a ball"
Mooney tells. And, after all. the credit
is not SO much for the trainer as the
elephant feel / did not teach koko.
She just naturally learned II herself.
1t took two winters to do II, working
four or five hours a day.
Need Quick Motion.
I'm learning to pitch. the difficult
thing Koko had to accomplish was a
quick. jerky motion. When we throw a
ball 1t is done chiefly by quick. snappy
motion OF the wrist. You can hardly
ima gine an elephant swapping its trunk
but that is just what Koko does when
she throws that ball.
II began with her winter before last
but did not get far. Last winter took
up the job. determined to make a sue.
cess of the ball game II possible. Kokc
and ! spent four or Ave hours a day
together. We would work a half hour
rest few minutes, and then go at Il
again.
1T was impossible for me to take
hold Of her trunk and show her how &c
toss the ball. 1t couldn't have been done
that way What did was talk to her
urged her and explained what l want
cd just as | would to a child. When
she would make some little progress
would praise her and encourage her
and she would try harder next time.
Elephants Understand.
Gould she understand what I said
Why, of course. Elephants actually
come to understand what We say tc
them. The other evening in the rims
koko was playful and tried to have
fun with me. She wouldn't throw thu
hall. Just dropped 1t down In front ot
course the public did not. Finally
said to her in low tone You biz
| beast, don't you try TO kid me or II
beat you when I get you outside" sh,
got busy at once and went through hel
act in great shape.
After I had trained Koko to pitch
the rest OF the baseball act was only
matter Of a few weeks. Bessie, tn,

| Joy playing baseball better than any
thing elese they do. The applause the!
get and the fact the whole attention o
the audience Is centered on them has
great deal to do with 1t. Elepehant

CHICAGO CONVENTION

Crowds at Republican Gathering

CHICAGO. April 2s.-The approaching
Republican National Convention in
Chicago is expected to bring to Chicago
the greatest crowds in the history of
the city. AS the intensity of the con-
test increases the better are the hotel
managers pleased. Both the size of
the crowd and it's state of mind affect
the amount of money 1t will spend, and
this year the intensity of factional in
terest gives assurance that an enor-
nous mob of oblivious spendthrifts will
be assembled.
Attempts to reserve rooms after May
Is will be regarded as a huge joke at
all the big hostelries. Fortunately,
there are several new hotels, including
the La Sale. where have been the Taft
headquarters, or 1t would be hopeless to
attempt to care for delegates and
henchmen and all the great throng as
sembled by the convention plus the
thousands who are absorbed in the out

GREAT THRONGS SEE:
BURIAL IN PARIS Of
VICTIM OF BANDITS
Enormous Crowds Witness
Funeral of Assistant Police
Superintendent.

PARIS, April 29.-The funeral of
Assistant Superintendent Jouin, of the
Paris detective force, victim Of the
first clash with Bonnot, leader of the
"Phantom Bandits" who was himself
killed in battle with the police yes
terday, took place today 1t was made
the occasion for a remarkable turn
out OF the comrades of the murdered
officer and for one of those peculiar
manifestations characteristic of the
volatile French. The passage of the
cortese through the streets was wit
messed Ivy an enormous crowd and
men and women gave violent utter
ance TO sentiments of grief, although
few had known the dead man and
most of them had scoffed at his ef-
forts in life.
The doctors at the Hotel Dieu Hos
pital, where the bandit chieftain died.
after being brought terribly wounded
from the battle Of Choisy lie Roi, were
outspoken in their wonder today that he
lived at all after the first wound he
/ received. 1t was made by an nrmy
rife bullet. and traversed the envelope
of the heart, passing out at the back,
under the arm. He was also wounded
fve times in the head. There were a
few other wounds in the body. but they
would not have proved fatal Yet Bon
not. unable to talk, plainly snaried and
tried to speak, and to yell his defiance
to the police after he was taken from
the debris, and did not cease his efforts
to make himself heard until he beca me
unconscious from loss of blood. He was
unique in his crimes and unique in
death. The under world" of Paris has
today placed him on a pedestal. This
fact Is causing police apprehension, be-
cause 1t Is believed GARNER, the youth
who was Bonnot's chief assistant, VIII
be able to recruit new band from
among the most desperate of French
! criminals.
The search today is being pushed fol
GARNER, and the police feel certain that
he IS being shielded by anarchists, i
colony of whom have their headquarters
in Cllo;sy lie Roi. orders have becn is
sued that he is to be taken dead OIL
alive. and the chase is being led II
person by Mons Lepine. head of, tho
of the detective department. who per.
sonally ran down Bonnot prior to yes.
terdays battle. That Bonnot and his
aide, Dubois, proprietor of the garage
in which both later met death, should
have been able to Withstand the assault
Of some 1000 armed men, including de
tachments Of the Republican Guard, &
corps of engineers, and a detachment o
artillery, amazed every one, and there
was a general disposition to criticise tn,
officials for this fact.
Superintendent Lepine accepted al
responsibility He stated emphatical.
ly today that the two criminals hat
cost enough in human life and he
did not intend to permit them tc
glorify themselves in the eyes of the
"under world" by adding a number Of
additional victims to their list in theil
last moments,
"I wanted these men and I got them
without unnecessary bloodshed," de.
clared the veteran thief -taker this
afternoon.
The police hoped to round up the
remaining members OF the band, in.
lcluding GARNER, some time tonight al
they claim to have good clues regard
ing their whereabouts.
