POSCHL CASE PROBERS
BACK suicide Theory
Still Trying. However. to Solve Puz-
zling Features of Tragedy.

The theory that Frank PoschI, whose
charred bones were found on the estate
OF DR.. w. w. Stewart. near Upper Marl-
boro. Md, last Sunday, had cremated
himself, is gaining strength in the COM
munity.
The circumstances connected with the
condition OF his body and the adjacent
ground apparently support this impress
sion. The finding OF buttons and buckles
from the dead mans clothing within two
feet Of the burned area and the fact that
the nose and cheek bones were not
scorched, strengthen the belief that he
bound his head between his knees to
force himself to endure the agony Of the
burning
Nevertheless Sheriff Robert +. Gates ad-
mitted last night that the authorities still
were trying to account for several ap-
parent discrepancies in the condition Of
the surrounding ground and the condi-
tiOn Of the remains.
No motive can he brought to light to
indicate a possibility OF murder, and the
authorities are about convinced that
Poschl died by his own hand as an out
come OF his religious fanatic!sm.

Earnings ON COPPER
WILL SHOW Big gain
Dividends Expected to Be so Per Cent
Higher Next Year Than This.
pecial to Ths Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald
New York, Oct. 26.-Dividends of cop
per-producing companies during the COM
ing year will be about 50 per cent greater
than they were during 1916, according to
some well-informed authorities who are
preparing to buy the leading coppers eE-
tensively during any setbaCks that may
come in the next few weeks.
The buying of Chino Is reported to be
Of very good quality. 1t Is estimated to
be earning at the rate of $50 a share an
nually Aleardy reports are current that
at the next meeting Of the directors, due
to be held for dividend action about De-
to be announced.
With Rock Island earnings large, as
they are at present, and with the believ-
ers in the property saying that the new
preferred stocks should sell around So,
figuring that even If a $40 assessment
were levied and the preferred stock sold
at IS, Il would result in a net assessment
of only $6, says a prominent firm close
to Rock Island interests.
Some of the holders of Norfolk and
Western common intimate that they will
not turn in their stock for an per cent
guarantee by the Pennsylvania, unless
there should be an important extra dis
tribution prior therein. Something in the
shape of a substantial stock dividend is
wanted. Important interests stand ready
to buy Norfolk and Western in the East,
barring none.
With cotton and wheat at present
prices, United States Steel doubled, cop
per metal the same. and with railroad
stocks about where they were before pres
ent conditions existed, 1t is argued in
representative sources that the last named
group must advance to materially higher
prices regardless Of the election.
