Three Friends In Minneapolis Share
in Bequests Which Were Made
by Former Resident
Of This City.
FRIENDSHIP IS REASON
Presumed That keokuk People VIII
Share in Distribution of legacies
Amounting to
$4,000.

An estate of s25o,oOo is left by Mrs.
Georgia w. Tyler, former resident OF
Keokuk, whose death occurred In
April in Los Angeles. Mrs. Tyler was
the widow of Major Loren S. Tyler
and Keokuk was the former home of
the Tylers. The amount of the estate
and the basis OF It's distribution will
be of interest locally.
Three Minneapolis women share In
the requests, according to an article
which was printed in one Of the Min
neapolis papers. After deducting lega-
cies amounting to $4,000 the residue
of the estate is bequeathed to Mrs. j.
w. Tarbell of 24O9 Humboldt avenue,
south, to dispose of at her death to
someone equally as deserving" Mrs.
F. H. LaDue Of 914 East Nineteenth
street, is to get $4,000, and Miss
Ellen Purcell of 1906 Irwin avenue
north, is to receive $4,000 Of the $4o,-
900. The balance goes to friends IN
other cities, which includes some Keo-
kuk people, it Is presumed.
The money is given to these three
Minneapolis people because of a long
time friendship with the decedent.
Mrs. Tyler and her hus band, the late
Major Loren Sumner Tyler. lived in
Minneapolis for fifteen years, coming
to Keokuk from there. Major Tyler
died October 10, 1914 After Major

DaIlv Stock Letter.
downright 1915 by The New York
Evening Post

rCopyright 1915 by The New York
Evening POST
NEW YORK, May 24.-1t was en-
tirely a common sense view that the
stock market after brief advance at
opening, should lapse into an irregu-
lar movement with some decided
downward reactions. Rejecting as it
undoubtedly does, the great funda-
mental influences bearing on the
American position, the stock ex-
change also at such moment as this.
Is swayed by experienced fears OF
Wall street. by general confidence
that the chances of panicky relapse
on any news passed are still content
to see the market in stable equilibri-
UNI.
Prices on the stock exchange
opened at advances so considerable as
of themselves to excite some feeling
of precaution. In number of stocks
there were further advances in the
early trading; then when moderate
selling pressure developed, either
from profit-taking sales or from pro-
fessional attacks, a sharp decline en-
sued. This brought prices in the
early afternoon below the level of
Saturdays closing. But at these low
prices. counter movement set in
which caused general recovery and
left the market at small net changes
for the day.

o.a., stanley Wiley, 80, chief
.,srI at the U. 8. engineers office
S &C. = died at his home, 200 North
strtb street, at 7:40 yesterday morn
,na His death was due to the IN
a ins incidental to old age. He
nlayed a large part in the construc'
t t;on of the Des Moines RAPIDS canal
and was widely known among eng1n'
aers for his service tn this work.
He was born in Geneseo, New
YORK. November II, 1882. He first
came to this city in 1865, but left
after six months for Bloomfield, Iowa.
He returned here in 1858 to enter
the employment of the government IN

His work in this capacity was re-
markably fine. He had in his posses
sion wears later, number Of draw
ings he had made during the con
struction of the canal, some OF which
he showed to Hugh l.. Cooper, during
the construction of the water power
Mr.. Cooper praised the drawings as
the finest he had ever seen and re-
mested Mr.. Wiley to autograph one
Of the drawings and present 1t to
him. Shortly after this some Of the
drawings were shown by Mr.. Cooper
to some German engineers here on a
trip Of inspection and they were &C
knowledged by these men to be the
best they had ever seen, this despite
the fact that German engineers are
generally conceded to be the finest
craftsmen in the world.
Mr.. Wiley was Exceedingly modest
in anything connected with himself
or his work and never could be in
duced to talk of himself or his early
work in the government service.
He was married May Is. 1876, In

CHARGE Of Violation Of Four Man Rule
by MarshaIltown Club is
Sustained by
Justice.
MUST PLAY IT OVER
Lindberg, Martini, Maui, Hammer
schmidt, and Richardson Are
Players Named
In Protest.

Yesterdays game between Keokuk
and Marshalltown was today thrown
out by the president Of the Central
association, M. F.. Justice, because ct
a violation of the four-man rule by
the Marshalltown team. The game
was protested by Manager Frank
Boyle Immediately after it had been
lost.
The players said to come under the
four-man rule on the Marshalltowl
club are: Richardson, Maui, Hammer.
schmidt, Lindberg, and Martini. Blu:
four Of these men played in yester.
days game, Maui, a pitcher, being
with the club but not getting in the
game.
This is the first game that has been
thrown out by President Justice be-
cause of violation Of the rule which is
a new one in the Central association
this year. The rule provides that no
club shall have more than four play
ers who have played for thirty DAYS
or more in a league Of as high elias IL
fication than Glass D, the rating or
the Central association.
While all clubs in the circuit had
more than four men who came under
this ruling during the training season
they were compelled to reduce by the
time the first game was played. Pro.
tests that Mason City was violating
the rule at the first Of the season
were investigated and found to be
true. This club. however, cut down
TO the limit prescribed by the rule,
after playing one or two games, botn
of which were lost.
Under the rules OF the league yes
terday's game does not go to the keo-
kuk club but will have to be played
over between the two teams. In ef-
feet it stands exactly as If the game
had not been played.

PLOT TO BLOW UP STEAMSHIP
Four Germans Arrested at New Or
leans and Box Of Dynamite
Confiscated.

New Orleans, Dec 24-The arrest
here of four Germans is believed to
have frustrated plot to blow up the
French steamship Rochambeau. The
police confiscated box containing rs
pounds OF dynamite, set by clockwork
to explode within six and one-half
days
The prisoners, two of whom are said
by the authorities to have confessed,
said they understood the Rochambeau
was to sail from New York Saturday.
Shipping records, however, show that
she left New York Dec. 10 and police
believe the alleged conspirators mis-
calculated the date of her departure
The plan, 1t was said, was to ship
the bomb by express, consigned to the
Rochambeau at New York. 1t was in
tended that the vessel would be blown
mp after she got to sea.

EVELYN NESBIT TAAW TO AID
URGES HUSBAND TO RETURN
AND PROVE SANITY.
Says She Is Ready to Go Back to New
York and Take Care of
Him.

New York, Dec. 23.-"Harry can get
out of Matteawan if he will accept and
follow my advice" said Mrs. Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw. She had just learned
that the United States Supreme Court
had ordered him returned to New York
state, where he will be put back in the
insane asylum or tried for conspiracy
in escaping from the institution.
Her statement came as a surprise
because for several years she has
fought to keep him in the asylum, ex-
pressing the fear that he would try to
kill her and her baby son.
The young woman, central figure in
the events leading up to the murder OF
Stanford White, added that if Harry
would send for her she would tell him
how to get out of Matteawan. She
said she would give him this advice:
go back to Matteawan for a while
and take your medicine. Stop trying
to run Matteawan by fomenting dis.
cord and seeking to have superintend-
ents and physicians removed.
'If Harry would regulate his con
duct along these lines he would soon
impress the Matteaw anauthorities with
the belief that he was sane and he
would be freed" added Evelyn.

WAREHOUSE BILL is PASSED
Provides for Federal Licensing Of

Causes Brief Debate.

Washington, Dec. 23-The Lever
warehouse bill was passed by the
house, 21S to 81. 1t provides for fed
eral licensing of cotton and grain
warehouses, being substitute for a
senate bill which would apply only to
cotton warehouses.
The Lever bill, which had the ap-
prevail of the administration, was the
subject Of brief debate, its sponsors
contending that it. would greatly en-
hancs confidence in agricultural prod
ucts hnd it's opponents claiming that
it was unconstitutional.
"This BILL" said Representative
Lever, twill result in the establish
ment of uniform warehouses and uni
form warehouse receipts for agricul-
tural products throughout the country.
1t will give a certainty and value to
warehouse receipts which they do not
now possess. 1t will furnish to the
farmer for the first time in this country
the machinery through which he may
be enabled not only to know the class
or grade of his products, but their
commercial value"

EXPORT 100000 BUSHELS
Chicago Houses Confirm Sales Of
Wheat to Be Shipped at
Early Date.

Chicago, Dec. 24.-Greatest action Of
the month has been recorded in wheat.
There was a break to $1235s for De-
cember and $1.26A for May and an
advance of 3 cents during the last
hour to s1.26% and s1.24A. The trade
oversold on the early reports that the
seaboard was reselling wheat.
Soon after the bottom price was re-
corded a Chicago house sold forty
boat loads for export. Still later the
seaboard began talking of several
million bushels for export in all posi-
lions.
Near the close, when the market was
at its strongest, Chicago export houses
confirmed sales of 100000 bushels Of
wheat for export Independent of Win
nipeg, Gulf, seaboard and other quar-
tiers.
The trade had bullish reports from
the Northwest in regard to inadequate
spring wheat supplies to run to an
other harvest. The English cable
news of the day was bullish.

FLOODS RAGING IN ARIZONA
Three Persons Lose Lives, Live Stock
BY Hundreds Drowned and
Houses Wrecked.

Tucson, Ariz, Dec. 26.-Floods, the
result of week of practically I'M
broken rainfall, have inflicted severe
damage upon nearly the entire area
OF the state lying between Phoenix
and the Mexican border. Three per-
sons have lost their lives; live stock
by hundreds have been drowned; ranch
houses and city residences wrecked
or washed away by torrents roaring
through what usually are dry canyons,
and traffic by rail, highway and wire
either has been badly crippled or COM
pletely suspended.
The most serious damage seems to
have been suffered in that part of San
ia Cruz valley lying 80 miles south OF
here. The Santa Cruz river attained q

and the crest of the food, after sweep
ing through Amado and the farming
region about reached Tucson, sweep
