MONEY HIDDEN IN CHAIR
Mrs. Elizabeth Sweet, Recluse, Left
$4,000 in Cash and Stocks.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Nov. IL
More than $4,000 was found Yesterday
in an old chair in which Mrs. Elizabeth
Sweet, recluse, was accustomed to
sit IN her cottage home on Hospital
street. The money was discovered by
City Solicitor Sisson, who had been
appointed custodian of the estate.
Taking out his knife, he cut off the
cardboard and burlap under the seat
and there dropped into his hands certifi-
Gates for 10 shares of stock in the Bar
stow Stove company, so cash, three
bankbooks, with accumulated interest.
totaling $ll, 100, and deed to the cot
tage, besides fire insurance policy
and other papers, all of which showed
a value IN excess of $4,000.
The income from the stock certifi-
Gates was 500 year, AID a neighbor
told Mr.. Sisson that Mrs. Sweet had
stated that she tried to live on that
sum. The only Withdrawals from the
banks, as shown by the books, were
for total of $3.50 to pay for monu-
ment.
Two persons had recently made an
attempt to secure administration papers
for the estate. Mrs. Sweet was 10 and
the widow of teamster.

25,OOO This probably includes men draft
ed to Antwerp from the provinces. Their
transportation, like big slave gangs, is too
painful for description. 1t is as pitiful as
the early days of the war, when Belgium
was invaded. Conditions appear to be par
ticularly bad in Antwerp, where the Ger
mans are exercising great brutality.
The correspondent reports that 10000
Belgians already have been removed to
Germany. They receive 10 marks 1929
weekly, with military rations
Les Nouvelles of Amsterdam prints a
Maastricht despatch saying that there are
persistent rumOrs that the deportations
have provoked a revolt at Brussels, in the
course of which 80 Germans were killed or
seriously wounded and that there were
numerous Belgian casualties. The CITY of
Brussels IS closed and nobody is permitted
to enter or leave. Concentrations have
been made at Antwerp, Starbroeck, Fans
vile and Eckeren.
The German pretext for the concentra
ton Is unemployment in Belgium itself
Most OF the men, however, are taken from
their work in fields and factories

VILLAGE OF HARDWICK SUED.
E. N. Sanctuary, Contractor for Dam.
Wants $4,000 Damages.

HARDWICK, Nov. IL. = Suit to re
cover $4,000 has been brought against
the village of Hardwick by f. n.
Sanctuary, for excavating and filling a
pocket in the bed of the river, which
was unforeseen when he constructed the
dam above the village powerhouse at
Pottersville, two years ago. The con-
tract was made for 81 900, for the con
struction of the dam to rock bottom, &C
cording to soundings and drawings
made. In the progress of the work q
pocket of considerable proportions was
found in the rock bed of the river,
which was not found at the time of
sounding. When the contract was made
the village authorities provided for Just
such contingency, having in mind 9th
er suits for recovery of a similar kind,
and it remains to be seen what the out
come will be.

GIFT OF 100000.
Medical School of University of Chicago
to Be Made High Grade.

NEW YORK, Nov. II. = The general
education board, in cooperation with
the Rockefeller foundation, has appro-
priated $2,000,000 to the University of
Chicago for the establishment of high
grade medical school, it was announced
here last night.
DR.. Simon Flexner said the endow-
ment of the new medical school will
be the largest of any in the world 1t
viii require at least two years to finish
the new buildings, he estimated. Chicago
was chosen for the site of the new
school, he declared, because it presented
a virgin field New York and other
large eastern cities having excellent
schools. -
1T would be an almost impossible
undertaking, he explained, to try TO
make satisfactory complete institu-
ton of the kind we have in mind out
of the different institutions here in
New York, some of which are privately
owned.

MCCORMICK LIMITED
FOR WAR SECRETARY
report That National Chairman Will Be
Bakers Successor-A Re-organized
Cabinet

NEW YORK, Nov. 11-Political gossip
Yesterday had it pretty well settled that
vance Z. Mccormick, Democratic national
chairman, is to be taken into President
Wilson's cabinet as secretary of war to
succeed Newton ID. Baker, who has an
nounced that he will resign March 4
When this subject was preached to Mr..
Mccormick he followed the usual custom
OF successful campaign managers and Wig
orously denied that he had any intention
or knowledge of becoming one Of Mr.. Viii
sons official family He stoutly insisted
that he intended to return to Harrisburg
to look after the management of his news
paper.
But the underground political currents
yesterday buzzed necessarily ON this sub
ect and IN many quarters it was regarded
as reasonably certain that Mr. Mccormick
would be offered the place, whether he
accepted it or not. And certain Demo
cratic leader who labored side by side with
the national chairman during the campaign
broadly animated that the gossip had more
than ordinary foundation.
The President thinks very highly of Mr..
McCOrmick's ability as an executive, as
was evidenced when Mr. Wilson forced the
Democratic convention in st. Louis last
June to accept him as the national chair
nan. The closest personal relations exist
between the two, and the Presidents i'm
phcit reliance on the judgment of the
Pennsylvania editor during the campaign
| is cited as proof that he will ask Mr.
Mccormick to become one of his official
dvisers.
News comes from Washington that sew
eral cabinet changes will be made, and
that in addition to Baker, Gregory, Dan
| iels> Redfeld and McAdoo will probably
retire
