UNABLE TO ESTABLISH HER
IDENTITY; WOMAN BURIED
ALI Efforts Of Coroner and Local on.
clals 70 Learn Identity Of Colored
Woman Are Unayalllng.

After endeavoring for two days to
learn the Identity Of the colored wom-
an killed Thursday afternoon by c.
& o. passenger train-No. 2 near Sulli-
vans Curve, just below ,Maysville
Coroner Higgins and local officials
have given up the hopes Of learning
who the woman is and she was Satur-
day buried by the county in the Pot
ters' Field and her grave marked as
an unknown.
From talks persons living along the
railroad had with the woman on the
day she met her death, It was thought
that she either lived in Cincinnati or
Cynthiana but officials in those towns
have been asked to search for MISS
ing colored woman and they are un-
able to give the local officials any in
formation upon which they might be
enabled to base closer search.
The body has been photographed by
the coroner and her photograph will
be kept on file for use in the event
he is enabled within a reasonable time
to learn of a missing colored woman.
From the fact that she wore several
suits Of underwear and several pairs
of stockings, 1t is supposed that she
was tramp probably without home.

Steel N CARGO IS
EXPECTED TO HOLD
BOAT TO BOTTOM
Sunken Ohio River Steiner Is Tx.
pected to be Held Where She Sank
so That She Can be>Ralsed When
River Falls Enough.

The muddy waters of the Ohio River
rose two feet nine inches Friday and
covered the hull Of the ill-fated Chilo,
which sank half miles below Dam
No. 35 at New Richmond, o., Thurs
day night.
A. NJ. Stanford, lock master at the
dam, said Friday night that the river
was rising at the rate of two-tenths of
a foot per hour and that the hull of
the Chilo already was under the sur
face of the water.
Twenty minutes after the Chilo
struck guide wall Of the dam, about
one hundred feet from the Kentucky
shore Thursday night, the steamer
sank to the bottom Of the river, leav-
ing two and a half feet of her hull
above the surface. With the packet
sank a cargo worth approximately
$4,000 All on board were saved.
Mrs. Greene, wife Of Captain Gordon
c. Greene, owner of the Chilo and
General Manager of the Greene Line
Packet Company, said Friday that a
low estimate would place the value Of
the cargo at 10000, and that the boat
could not be duplicated for less than
$4,000 Thus the total loss was about
$4,000
There was no insurance on the
Chilo, according to Mrs. Greene. She
said that her husband had discontn-
ued the insurance on all of his boats
several years ago because of the high
rates charged by insurance companies.
On the packet was heavy consign-
mcnt of steel, which Captain Jack
Ward, who was in command of the
boat when she sank, believes will hold
i until the water in the river goes
down and it can be raised The boat
is fastened securely to the shore with
lines and chains and it Is believed

 Windows Smashed

Forcible entry into Fruitman's Fash ion Shop, on Main street, was effect. ed yesterday evening by a Ford de- livery truck belonging to the Peacock Confectionery, across the street, and driven by Jimmy Warne. The Ford made break for the plate glasswin- dows of the Fashion Shop, in which were hanging numerous enticing arti- cles of womens wearing apparel, smashed the glass and nearly got in before young Warne could bring it un- der control. Warne said that his foot brakes failed to hold and he could not avoid the accident.
 A few weeks ago a Ford truck be- longing to MeWhorter's ice cream fac tory went through the plate glass win dow on the other side of the -asnion Shop. c. M.

Fire Prevented

Mrs. Fowler gave the alarm and it was quicly extinguished, but might have been a disastrous fire. be- cause of the closeness of the three houses on that block. It seems that the Bludworth family had just left to motor to Fairbank and some one had turned the lamp off, but as the gaso- line lamps of that kind do not go out at once, while the flame was still on, the curtain was blown against the mantel and the blaze started.

I ELL RELATIONS IF MRS. LEEDS
 AND STILLMAN
Banker Does Not Deny He Maintained Apartment and
 Bank Account for Woman

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y. July 13.- After a half dozen witnesses had tes- tified today to intimate relations be- tween James A. Stillman, wealthy New York banker and divorce plain tiff, and Florence Leeds, former Broadway show girl, the bankers counsel declared they would not dis pute or contradict the evidence and asked Referee Gleason to rule that no further evidence be required as to these relations. The referee denied the request after it had evoked pro- tests from the lawyers representing Mrs. Anne U. Stillman, the defendant
 Colonel William Rand, of Still mans counsel. was quoted as saying that mo occasion exists for adducing further proof except to satisfy a pru- rient public"
 Following the testimony against the banker, Colonel Rand was said to have stated:
 Tt now appears by the evidence that MT. Stillman occupied an apart ment at GA East S6th Street, New York, wits one Florence H. Leeds, and that he was known there as Franklin Harold Leeds; that he accompanied her to various places was seen carrying her baby Jay in his arms; that in December. 1916, he opened up a bank account in her name as Miss Florence H. Leeds and informed the bank that if the account became short to notify him.
 The account became short and he was notified the account was inn rlediately made good.
 'It further appears that at Rest Court, Stonybrook, Long Island, he lived with Mrs. Leeds as her husband, was known there as MT. Leeds and paid the chauffeur employed there"
 Colonel Rand then stated that if the referee was ready upon the evi- dence to make a finding in reSard to Stillman's relations with Florence Leeds and if he was satisfied from the evidence that there is no collu- sion, we wish to state that the evi- dence will not be disputed or contra dicted."
 He then asked that no further evi. dence be required as to Stillman's re- lations with women other than his wife.
 Attorneys for Mrs. Stillman insist. ed that they should be allowed to try the case ''in their own way" in OFu6T ludL LH6 6NlueuCe HliSuI possible questioning before higher f courts

 1916, that he took care of shortages which resulted from her checks and that in August, 1917, the banker had the account changed to the name of Mrs. Florence Ii. Leeds. He identi- fled three applications for automo- bile licenses which Stillman made and which the witness attested as a notary public.
 Viola E. Hill, who nursed Mrs. Leeds after the birth of Jay Ward Leeds, in September, 1918. identified StilIman's photograph as "Mr. Leeds" and told of seeing him and Mrs. Leeds in intimate pastures.
 Dr. James Ogilvie, of New York, testified to being present at the birth of Jay Ward Leeds, but, it was said, he declared he could not identify Stillman's photograph as MT. Leeds"
