MORGAN ASSERTS
PERFECT FAITH
Money Magnate Tells Of Belief
in AtOnement for Sins.
Amount of Fortune Not Revealed
$2O,0OO,OOO Disposed of and
Son Gets Residue.

New York; commit my soul into
the hands of my Savior in full conf
dence that, having redeemed it and
washed it in His most precious blood,
he will present it faultless before the
throne of my Heavenly Father; and l
entreat children to maintain and de-
fend, at all hazard, and at any cost of
personal sacrifice, the blessed doctrine
of the complete atonement for sin
through the blood of Jesus Christ,
once offered, and through that alone. y
This is the extraordinary and strik-
ing utterance which begins the last
will and testament of John Pierpont
Morgan, who died at Rome on March
81 last, whose body, heaped over with
flowers from the crowned heads of Eu-
rope, was, a fortnight later, brought
back to his own land, and last Monday
was borne to its last resting place at
Hartford.
Ever since the funeral the publica-
ton of the great financier's last will
has been awaited with keen expecta.
tion, and it is safe to say that of all
the interesting testaments of eminent
citizens of America, that of Mr.. Nor,
gan, to be offered for probate here is
by far the most interesting.
AS to the amount of the estate,
which is one the first questions the
public naturally is asking, there is
nothing in the will to give any accu-
rate idea, and the executors declare
that no announcement will be made on
this subject until the appraisal has
been made for determining the state
inheritance tax.
The amount of trusts and requests
named by specific sums is under $780,
900, 900, but the entire residue of the
estate is left to J. P. Morgan, Jr.,
who is designated by his father to be-
come the chief heir, not only to his
fortune, but to his many charitable
and artistic activities.

SCUTARI YIELDS
TO MONTENEGRO
Fighting Forced Before Powers
Can Deliver Note.
Exhausted Garrison Said to Have
Yielded to Besiegers-Bulgarla
and Greece at Outs.
Cettinje- 1t is officially announced
here that the Montenegro forces have
entered Scutari.

London Pending the conclusion Of
formal armistice, covering the oper'
atoms of all the allies, the Montene'
grins are renewing their desperate
efforts to capture Scutari, the fall OF
which, according to an official report
issued at Cettinje, is imminent.
There is no confirmation of the story
from Trieste that, owing to the ex,
haustion of food, the commander OF
Scutari is ,endeavoring to negotiate tol
It's surrender, but Belgrade dispatch
says the Montenegrins have heavy ar
tillery before Scutari and have en-
ployed it in their present attack, al
though the Servian troops are leaving
or have left that district.
1t is said that Montenegro is en-
deavoring to arrange with Servia fol
the purchase of this artillery.
1t is supposed that the Montenegro
government has closed the frontier
and suspended postal and telegraph
service in order to prevent any inter
ference on the part of the powers until
Scutari falls.
1t is said that the King of Montene'
gro has granted permission for all tine
Albanian refugees to leave Scutari.
A report published at Bucharest says
that, under the settlement arranged at
st. Petersburg, Roumania will receive
Silistria with about two miles of ter
ritory around the town and the right
to erect Notifications.
Bulgaria and Greece are rapidly
drifting towards war over the posses
sion of Saloniki, according to the
Chronicles correspondent at that
town.
The Greeks have modified every
available soldier and concentrated one
army in the neighborhood of Saloniki
while another is being landed at Or
FAM, in the Gulf of Orfani, in order tt
watch the movements of the Bulgar
ians at Drama and Kavala. The vic
torious Epirus army from Janina is
being distributed along the new strate
gical front from Saloniki to Orfani.

TO APPEAsE WOOL GROWERS
Senators Would Place Wooden Fab
RIGS on Free List.

washington, D. C.-Fearful that
they cannot restore raw wool to the
dutiable list, Democratic senators
from the wool-growing states are
hopeful of appeasing the wrath of the
wool men by making a fight to force
wool fabrics and other wooden manu-
features on the free list. They realize
that this will not aid the wool grow
ers, but there long has been feeling
among wool growers that the wool
manufacturers were getting an ad-
vantage over them in tariff and if
these senators can make wool fabrics
free, in the event raw wool remains
on the free list, they feel that they at
least will have placed both industries
on an equal footing, so that one enjoys
no advantages of which the other is
deprived.
For great many years the wool
manufacturers of the East have pro-
fessed to work with the wool growers
of the West in keeping a substantial
duty on all forms of wool, both raw
and manufactured. Yet the wool
growers have known that the advant-
age has been on the side of the manu-
facturers and that the growers, es-
pecially under the Payne-Aldrich law,
got only fraction of the protection
they were supposed to receive, owing
to tricks of the manufacturers in
grading foreign woods.

Hop Sings Threaten War.

San Francisco "A new angle was
thrown on the Chinese tong war here
when the Hop Sing Tong served notice
that unless the two warning tongs, the
Suey Sings and Bling Kongs, came to a
speedy agreement it, too, would take
to fighting. This action by the Hop
Sings is the outcome of a blockade
placed around Chinatown by the police
in an effort to stop tong murders that
have been frequent lately, by hurting
the business of the merchants, who,
police say, are supporting the tongs.
The police continue their blockade.

Americans planned to make them

The Power of Vision

To hold mental picture which ex-
presses a quality you desire is an
easy means of gaining more of that
power. A business man who found
the need of keeping a level head
through conflicting conferences of
great business interests said that he
often sat in such meeting and pic
tured to himself a druggists scale
evenly balanced, and found this
helped to Produce calmness and
strength
This picture also brought to him,
in the heat of argument, ideas which
made for balance, equality, fairness
and harmony The desire for the
''lion's share was often subdued by
one calm mind holding this picture
of perfect equality. In like manner
one may aid himself in becoming as
punctual as an engineers watch. as
forceful as a locomotive, as coura
geons as a pioneer. as hopeful as an
inventor, or as dead-in-sarnest as the
second horse on the last quarter
