HOW He Won
Place in Hearts
Of Strangers

VIC Oi tnc HOSt IOaCnIhS H'IS
Of evidence given before the su-
preme court at yesterdays ses.
sion was the following taken from
the testimony Of G.. F. Clark:
"Ahout three months after he
came to our home, Mrs. Clark,
Herbert and | went on a trip to
Chicago. was going to Indian
apo!is on business and they were
going to stay over Sunday in Chi.
easo with me. ! was taken sick
with ptomaine poisoning and was
at the hotel, only partially con-
scious during the day. Mrs.. Clark
told me afterwards how they stay
ed there, and he frequently said,
"Mother, If anything happens to.
papa, we never can be happy
again." This was the first time
we began to realize what an af-
fection he was forming for US.
"After he had been at our home
about four or five months. as Mrs.
Clark and were sitting on the
davenport one Sunday, he pulled
himself uo between US and said,
"Papa, mama, God gives every
little folk a papa and a mama and
a home and you are the papa and
mama that God has given me, and
this is my home and am going
to stay here"
"Eot many months after he
came to our home Mrs. Clark
bought a poster that was labeled
"CuGdIing Time," and it had pic
ture Of father with a little child
in his night dress his arms. The
first verse was something like
this:
"Pitter, patter across the floor;
A little boy scarcely four;
His little niqhtie on.
For it is cuddling time"
"This picture especially took
Herbert's fancy and from that
time on every day Of our lives
that ! have been at home and the
family has been there alone, he
has come down in his little ni3htie
for cuddIe with daddie. And he
is never satisfied after that until
daddie and mama go upstairs with
him and each Of US holds his hands
while he says his prayer. It has
been in ways like this that he has
appealed to US for a home and for
love, and without our realizing it
at first, he soon found a way into
our hearts and we always sup
posed from all the information
that we could oct that he was
n1otherless, tatherIess child, who
had never had home, or a name,
and was asking US to make
place in our home for him."

New York, Sept. 24.-Negotiations
over the proposed credit to Great Brit
ain and France continued today with
out any noteworthy development.
For the first time since the Anglo
French financial commission reached
New York fortnight ago, there was
talk today that the loan might not be
SO much as a half billion dollars. It
seemed definitely established that it
would not exceed this sum. Authori-
tatively it was said that this was the
amount on which negotiations at pres
ent were based, but there prevailed
in sCrme quarters the belief that half
billion represented the hope rather
than the actual assurances of the
comissiOn and it's American advisers.
A report was current that negOtia-
tions had developed to the point where
the commission had sought official ap-
prOval Of the tentative program by
Paris and London. This was neither
verified nor denied on behalf Of the
commission whose members refused
to discuss the point.
A banker in position to know said
today that Great Britain does not at
the present time owe {, penny for
goods purchased in this country, but
on the contrary has made several
large advance payments on certain
contracts. MorG than $300,000,9G
shipped here recently in goid and Sc
curities, it was said, had squared the
accounts. France, this banker said
owes a small bill here-as interna-
tional bills go, but twenty billion dol.

duced in the evidence show that at
the White Maternity hospital in St.
Paul the child was registered under
the name of Brace Smith, and no rec
ord Of the parents was left. Some
time the past summer or since the ac.
tion was started to recover the boy
an effort was made to change the rec
ord at the hospital Mrs. White on
being questioned relative to the diff.
ference in the color of the inks used
in making the two entries, stated that
a certain party made the change
and wrote the name w. ]. Sidle over
the name Of Brace Smith. The above
information is contained in an afti-
davit made out by Mrs. White.
Miss WendelI's Interest.
All through the proceedings Miss,
Wendell, the nurse in whose charge
the child was left seemed to take
far greater interest in what is being
done than members of the Sidle fam
lily. In fact, it has been stated that
she has travelled all over the country
securing evidence, and getting depo-
sitions to establish the identity of the
child.
Dispositions from DR.. Campbell, the
physician in attendance, at the time
of the birth of the child, state that the
entire plan for the disposition of the
child was made before the party left
for St. Paul.
.. Was Baby Chanaed?
Other evidence went to show that
the baby brought to the Iowa City hos.
pital by Miss Wendell, about the mid.
die Of September, 1907, was several
months old. In. Carson of Maquo.
keta saw the child, early in October
and is positive that it was at least
three months old. A nurse in one of
the hospitals is of the opinion that it
was four months old. At that time
the child was pale and emaciated, and
was suffering from an intestinal trou.
BILE.
The evidence leads to the belief
that possibly Nurse Wendell changed
the children before going to Iowa
City. This contention has not been
set up by the attorneys, but seems to
be the opinion Of a number of people
who have followed the case closely
from the start.
Real Mystery. .n
There seems to be a real mystery
in connection with little Herbert
Clark. and the more evidence intro
duced at the hearing the deeper it
seems to grow. The numerous stories
told by Miss Wendell, in regard to the
child's parents, the concern she has
shown for the welfare OF the child at
all times, and her general interest in
the case at the nresent time, all lead
to one belief Miss Wendell has been
the prime factor in the entire case.
not even excluding the alleged par
ents Of the child, Mr.. and Mrs. W. J.
Sidle.
For eight years the youngster was
batted about the country from one
side to another No home was ever
provided for him. The Clarks final
ly came into n0ssession of the Young
ster in much the same manner that a
hundred other families did When the
attachment for the child had grown
