WILSON DISCUSSES
BUSINESS OUTLOOK
WITH J.P. MORGAN
Wall ST. FinanCier Tells PreSi-
dent His Views of Depres-
SiOn-0ther Prominent Bus
mess Men Will Call.

WASHINGTON. July 2.-J. Pier
pont Morgan conferred with Pres.
Wilson today upon the various aspects
of the business and financial prob
lens now before the country. The
interview was the first of a series
which Pres. Wilson plans to hold with
prominent business men. Henry
ufacturer VII; call at the white house
next week.
Mr.. eIorgGns visit was at his own
solicitation and no formal statement
was made at the white house as to the
purpose of me call.
1t is believed that Mr. Morgan pre-
sented the Veil ST view of the pre-
va-ling business depression and pos
sibly attempted TO persuade the pres
ident TO "gO easy" while business is
passing through a period of readjust-
ment caused by the tariff and cur
rency laws. 1t was stated at the white
house that Mr.. Morgan's call had
nothing to do with the New Haven
situation.
Pres Wilson is now making a
strong effort TO get in touch with the
business interests of the country and
assure them that much of their ap
'prehension is unfounded. He feels
that he can accomplish by personal
contact what mis- speeches may fail to
do.
Mr.. Morgan emerged from the pres
ident's room smiling and obviously
pleased with his conference.
Not a word; you'll have to ask the
president, was all that ne would say
to the newspaper men.
The president today also made an
appointment to meet representatives
of the Chicago association of COM
merce for next Wednesday. Jos. III.
Defrees of the association solicited
the appointment for the purpose of
discussing trust legislation. Repre-

FOR OHIO ROAD;
ASK FORECLOSURE
Bankers Trust Co. Files Suit
Alleging Cincinnati, Hamil-
ton and Dayton Co. Has De-
fauIted interest Payments.

CINCINNATI. Ohio. July 2.-The
Bankers Trust Co. of New York to-
day filed suit asking for q receiver
for the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Day
ton Railroad Co. in the United States
district court here, alleging failure of
the road to pay interest maturing on
about ten million dollars of bonds
and asking foreclosure of mortgages
and the sale OF the road.
The court appointed as receivers
former Gov. Judson Harmon and
Judge Rufus b. Smith and fixed their
bonds at $4,000 each.
The trust company charged in its
petition that the railroad has default
ed on it's interests on first mortgages
and refunding 50-year gold bonds on
$3,162,O coo bonds of the Indianapolis,
Decatur and Western railroad and
$4.722, 900 bonds of the Cincinnati, In
dianapolis and Western Railroad Co.
The suit alleges the road has out
standing obligations OF $2,50 900 and
IL is without means to pay them. The
petition recites that the earnings of
the company do not meet the ex-
penses and that the railroad has been
at great expense and loss because of
the disastrous floods OF 1918.
The Bankers Trust Co. in addition
to asking for receiver asks that of
ficials and employees of the railroad
company be enjoined from interfering
with transferring or dispOsing of any
OF the property OF the company

WARNING FALLS.
PAIR ESCAPE NARROWLY
Mr.. and Mrs. CA. Dewey Near
Iy Asphyxiated and Pet Par
rot Dies From Fumes.

Wednesday evening as Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Arthur Dewey of 720 Logan
St, prepared to retire they heard loud
calls and much Tapping of wings from
Polly. the pet parrot whose cage
hangs in the kitchen.
Presently the chattering ceased,
however, and the Deweys retired with
out investigating the cause of the
commotion. 1t was not particularly
unusual
Early TIL rsday morning Mr.. Dewey
awakened in a daZe. For several
minutes he could not realize the cause
of his depression. Mrs. Dewey was
unconscious and he could not awaken
her. With a great effort Dewey final
ly aroused himself sufficiently TO call
the aid of neighbors- The room In
which the Deweys had been sleeping
was filled with gas fumes which also
permeated the entire house.
The fumes were traced to the
kitchen where a gas jet had fallen
from the connecting pipe. Lying in
a corner of the cage with dropping
feathers was Polly, dead, evidently
for several hours, from the fumes.
Pollys alarm sounded the evening be-
fore had failed. AS a result Mr.. and
Mrs. Dewey had a narrow escape and
the pet was dead.
The police were notified to bring the
pulmotor to the Dewey residence but
before the arrival of the machine Mrs.
Dewey had been restored to con-
sciOusness. She was still in serious
condition Thursday, however, accord
ing to DIR. T. ]. Swantz. who is at
tending her.
The fact that the bedroom is on the
second floor and considerably remov-
ed from the kitchen probably saved
the lives of Mr.. and Mrs. Dewey. since
the gas evidently had been escaping
all night.
