FORTUNE GREATER
DESPITE u|BERALITY
E:tate Of Charles G. Gates Es-
tImated at -Four Millions.

New York, Oct. 31.-Despite his
reputation as a "spender" Charles G.
Gates, son of John W. Gates, who
dropped dead at Cody, Wyo., left an
estate far in excess of the fortune left
him by his father.
What disposition is made of his
property will not be known until his
will is filed. Ii is believed that the
bulk of his estate, estimated at nearly
$4,0C0,000, will go to his widow, who
was Miss Florence Hopwood of Min.
neapolis.
John w. Gates left his son $1,000
900 and the income of a trust fund of
$2,000,000. From the elder Gates Mrs.
John W. Gates inherited S15,000,000
the bulk of which would have gone to
her son had he lived. Friends say
Mrs. Gates gave her son a large sum
of money after his fathers death.
Several weeks before starting on his
hunting trip Charles Gates declared !:
Il do not know how much it costs
me to live, but have more money to-
day than my father left me, and | am
getting richer every minute. work
hard the greater part of every day
and when I'm through | like to enjoy
myself"

JURY HAD Been
OUT ALL NIGHT
Widow Of Admiral Eaton
Freed Of Murder Charge.
HOPES FOR BRIGHTER LIFE

Defendant In Sensational Trial Breaks
Into Tears When Thanking the
Twelve Men Who Had Decided in
Her Favor-crowd Remains in Court
room During Deliberations of Jury.
Plymouth, Mass, Oct. 31.-Mrs. Jen-
ME May Eaton was acquitted of the
charge of murder of her husband, Rear
Admiral Joseph G. Eaton, by verdict
of the jury rendered at $40 a. m.
The jury retired at 6 o'clock the
previous evening. Notwithstanding
that there seemed little prospect as
the night wore on of a verdict before
morning crowd of nearly 2G0 per-
sons sat out the tedious night. Mrs.
Eaton awaited the verdict composedly
and smiled when she heard the fore
man of the jury pronounce her mot
guilty.
Mrs. Eaton had sat up in a private
room in the courthouse until a. m.
Then she was permitted to go to the
judges lobby, where she slept on
couch until awakened at 4:30 and sum-
moned to the courtroom.
After the foreman had announced
the verdict Chief Justice Aiken warned
the jurors to keep secret the proceed
ings in the juryroom.
Jurors Ask to Meet Mrs. Eaton.
After Mrs Eaton had left the court
room the jurors, through their fore
man, asked that they might be allowed
to meet her. The permission was
granted and they formed a semi-circle
in the corridor. Mrs. Eaton came out
from the judges lobby and thanked
them individually. As she did so she
burst into tears for the first time since
her trial started. A little later Mrs.
Eaton gave out the following state
ment:
Il am glad most of all because of my
aged mother and my lame child, both
of whom need me. | shall go home at
once. | hope that a new life will be
opened to me and that the tribula-
tions which have been mine in the
past have been ended"
Because of the prominence OF Rear
Admiral Eaton the trial of Mrs. Eaton,
who was his second wife, attracted
countrywide interest. The admiral
took q prominent part in the battle of
Santiago. After his retirement he set
tied down on little chicken farm at
Assinippi, where he died on March s.
Mrs. Eaton was arrested on March ~.
The trial began Oct. IA

Bonding for Roads.

1t is evident that the proposition
to bond the state of Iowa for 25,OOO,-
900 for the building of permanent
roads will not get to the people with
out some determined opposition.
The argument that the state cannot
afford it will not have the same eff
feet as formerly, because it is demon
strated the state is now spending ST.
100000 per year on roads and not
making beginning on the permanent
kind. 1t is largely question Of how
to raise and spend the money, not
whether we will arise and spend it.
There is a sentimental and bust
ness argument against bonded debt
for the state that will have consider
able effect. Iowa has no state debt
now, and it would be pleasing if we
could do without one in the future.
But very few large enterprises are
carried on without borrowing money.
No county builds a court house, no
city school house, no community it's
own waterworks or lighting plant
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1913-01-15
without issuing bonds. The reason is

without issuing bonds. The reason is
that citizens are not taxed to create
surplus but to pay current expenses.
A municipality or a state does not
adopt the policy of accommodating a
big balance in the bank. Therefore
it is necessary to issue bonds when
some new large work is determined
upon. This is good business policy,
if the improvement is good policy
The Citizen sees no reason why
Iowa should not incur bonded debt
for permanent roads, providing thor
oughly tested plan for building them
is adopted. 1t would be folly to spend
millions in any haphazard way, but
it would be sensible to issue bonds
to some reasonable amount, and levy
a one mill tax to pay the interest and
principal in a period Of years, if by
so doing we can establish a great
permanent road system within five
years, instead of waiting for another
quarter of century for them.--lowa
City Citizen.
