Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt has been
asked TO add new department to her

ment Armory.
Can't she fix it up so as to send out
an antidote for inconsistencies to the
lonesome Guardsmen on the Mexican
border? one wrote. Why need all the
aid be given to the needy Guardsmen's
wives and babies? lie hadn't any him

the same. He was n the direst need of
a letter, and wouldn't she write him
one?
He was dreadfully homesck, he ex-
planned. He had found the Texas
plains a poor substitute for the noun
famous skyscrapers of Manhattan, and
the whiz Of rifles less familiar than the
clang of the a." And he never got
any letters. The other fellows laughed
at him when he stood in line day after
day and then went away empty handed.

hALTBIE BOOSTS BANK
RATE ON CITY MONEY
DEPOSITS Will Hereafter Earn
100000 Yearly More.

new plan regarding the S5OOOO,-
600 of city money on deposit in various
banks was put in effect yesterday by
Milo r. Maltbie. City Chamberlain, by
which the city will obtain higher rate
cf interest on the deposits and at the
same time make them more attractive
70 bankers. Mr.. Maltbie said the new
plan would result in increasing the re-
CENTS of the Chamberlain's Office dur
ing the coming year by SlOO,OOO, a
sum sufficient to pay the entire ex-
penses of the Office for nearly TWO
years.
The Chamberlain's plan, approved by
the Banking Commission, was sent -
the city banks and trust companies.
OF the 100 institutions asked to bid on
city deposits, thirtyseven agreed 20 pay
3 per cent or more, as compared with
twelve institutions which offered to
pay per cent only on May !.
Briefly. the Chamberlain found that
the CITY only once en- several years had
ON deposit less than S20,000,00O, which
practically was a continuous inactive
account. A part of this sum, con
siderablv below the lowest amount
which the city has had on deposit with
banks and trust companies for many
wears, amounting 10 between Sl2,OOO,-
COO and $4,000, 900, has been set ASIDE
as so-called "Class A. deposit, Tor
which the bankers are glad to pay a
higher rate Of interest. or course, no
guarantee will be given that none OF
the Glass A deposits will be called upon
during the coming quarter.

LEGAL WAR AHEAD
ON BOY SOLDIER
Battle for Custody of Young
Millionaire Soon to Begin.

William Crossman Mills Lee, OF
White Plains, is at peace with the
world, learning soldierly duties at the
boys training camp at Batavia. His
return to civilian life on August %,
however, will be the signal for various
militant legal activities in which he,
doubtless unwttingly, is TO be the CEN
tral figure.
De Witt II. Lyon, Williams guardian,
will start habeas corpus proceedings TO
obtain possession Of his youthful mill
ionaire charge, Attorney Thomas Hold
en-, jr., announced yesterday. The Gus
tody Of the heir TO sl,500,000 left by
his grandfather, the late William Cross
man, was given 10 his foster grand
mother, Mrs. Emma Kenyon Lee. by a
decision Of Supreme Court Justice
Arthur S. Thompkins. The decision
does not disturb Mr.. Lyon as guardian
OF the property, but only Of physical
possession Of the little millionaire.
Attorneys for Mrs. Lee and Fred
erick T. Lee. the boys stepfather,
would not discuss what effect the de-
cision might have on the kidnapping
charge against their clients, which
comes 20 trial before City Judge Nor

EUGENIA KELLY
GETSHER RICHES
Nearly 100000 Goes to
Mrs. Davis, Heroine of
Cabaret Romance.

Mrs. Eugena Kelly Davis, who mar
ried Al j. Davis, cabaret dancer. de-
spite efforts by her mother, Mrs. Helen
VI. Kelly, to break off the attachment,
has received the principal of the trust
fund created for her by her late father,
Edward Kelly, a banker The fortune,
estimated at between 100000 and
100000, was turned over to Mrs.
Davis, it was learned yesterday, when
she became of age, recently. 1t con-
sists chiefly of giit-edged securities.
The announcement that the estate
left for the young woman by her
father had been gwen into her con-
troll disposes of the intimaton made
in behalf Of Mrs. Kelly, when the
cabaret career of Miss Kelly was be-
fore the court and public, that steps
would be taken to prevent the money
from passing to the heiress.
Mr. and Mrs. Davis are now in sara
toga with their young baby. They
announced their intention TO lead the
simple life when they returned from
their wedding trip, last November:
which followed closely the granting OF
a final decree of divorce to Mrs. Al j.
Davis If the past liberallty Of Mrs.
Davis with the income she received
from the trust fund is any criterion OF
her future expenditures, the principal
Of the trust is not likely 10 gather
much mould. her friends say. 1t was
this inclination of the young woman
before her marriage that caused her
mother TO intervene in her tango
parlor career. Personal admonitions
and pleadings failing, Mrs. Kelly took
her troubles to the Magistrates Court,
seeking TO have her daughter commit
ted TO an institution or somewhere
away from Davis's presence and IN
1uence.
There were several hearings; Miss
Kelly made several promises and the
whole thing was dropped. Among the
things it is said Miss Kelly promised
was that she would not marry Al
Davis The publicity given to the
troubles of the Kelly family created
a great stir along Broadway, where
both were well known figures, and
started a crusade which, temporarily at
least, put the soft pedal on some Of
the tango palaces.
Mrs. Kelly will not be asked to &C
count, as is customary, for expendi-
lures made by her in behalf of her
daughter from the trust fund, while
acting as her guardian.

ORANGE BANF'S DEFICIT
BIGGER, SAY EXAMINERS
Assert Hatch Owes Trust Com
PAW More than S306.000.

Depositors of the Mutual Trust Com
pany. Of Orange, y. j., learned yester-
day that Edwin II. Hatch, its yice-presi-
dent, owed the bank more than the
100000 admitted in the oyercertifica-
ton of deposit manipulations. Just
how much this sum is bank examiners
will not state.
They issued this statement yester-
day; ~
I'm addition to the liability Of Edwin
II. Hatch, in the matter Of certificates
Of deposits issued TO him. which has al
ready been the subject of public discus
sion, il appears that Mr. Hatch is in
debted 10 the Mutual Trust Company
for a considerable amount, and much
will depend on what the Investigations
now being made regarding that in
debtedness and the condition Of Mr..
Hatch's affairs may show"
Ex-Judge Thomas A. Davis, counsel
for the bank directors, said the an
nouncement was news 70 him, adding
that he had no idea what Hatch's IN

Employers Approve Peace
Plan and Unions o. K.
Will End Lockout.
EXPECT FAVORABLE
VOTE BY STRIKERS
Federal Mediators, Ignored by
Both Sides, Confer with
Mayor Mitchell.

Prospects Of federal mediation in
the garment workers strike yesterday
brought about hurried action that may
send the workers back to their ma
chimes next Monday.
A tentative working agreement has
been drawn up by strikers and employ
ers and now is being voted upon by the
strikers. 1t was said last night that
representatives of the Cloak and Suit
Manufacturers Association already had
signed the agreement and that favor
able vote by the strikers would end the
fourteen weeks lockout OF 45,cOO
makers of women's cloaks and suits.
The amended agreement deals almost
exclusively with working conditions,
which were the subject Of vigorous OBJ
jections when the strike was supposed
to have been settled week ago last
Monday. II is generally believed the
new conditions are sufficiently I'M
proved to result in favorable vote by
the strikers.
Medators Meet Mayor.
Yesterdays action was brought about,
it was generally believed, because Of
the presence of three federal mediators,
who were scheduled to begin a complete
investigation of strike conditions here.
The mediators, James A. Moffit, Of
Orange, y. j., President of the Hatters'
Union; Ethelbert Stewart, assistant
commissioner of labor statistics, a1d
Charles W. Mills, a Philadelphia coal
operator. were scheduled to hold an
initial session with Mayor Mitchell and
representatives of the employers ard
strikers in the City Hall yesterday
afternoon.
But neither employers nor employed
appeared TO favor such action. BenJa-
min Schlesinger, representing the gar
ment workers, said he could not be
present at the meeting, as he was
busilv engaged in settling the strike in
another way. officials Of the maru-
facturers' organization made SINH ar
excuses.
Secret Conference Is Held.
The meeting was not called off II
time, however, TO prevent the mediators
from reaching the City Hall and hold
ing brief session with the Mayor
Methods of procedure were discussed
after which it was agreed the scheduled
meeting of all parties to the dispute
should be postponed until tomorrow
afternoon.
Meanwhile, representatives Of the
manufacturers and officials of the
union got together in a conference O.
their own. 1t was said this conference
was to be held at the McAlpin hote!
but the participants in 1t were SO
secretive no details of the meet
could be learned. ,
At the office of Morris Hillqult, at
tornev for the strikers, it was said the
manufacturers executive committee a.
ready had ratified and signed the tn
tative agreement.
THE situation looks hopeful was
the comment of Benjamin Schlesinger,
representing the strikers. Both sides
have made some concessions and It
looks as if the strikers would be back
TO work by Monday"
Representatives of the manutactur-
ers could not be reached last night.
