Husband of Woman
Attempting Suicide
Held on Suspicion

Following the alleged attempt of
Mrs. Matte Peters, of 73 Rankin
street, to commit suicide by taking
fifteen grains of bichloride of mer-
curry Wednesday afternoon, Fred
Peters, husband of Mrs. Peters, was
placed under arrest Thursday morn
ing by City Detectives Powers and
Whitley, and is being held at police
headquarters under a blanket charge
of suspicion.
The officers allege that Mrs. Peters
stated that her husband was in some
manner connected with the German
government, and that he now re-
ceives letters written in German,
which he destroys Immediately after
he has read them. She stated
further that during the war her hus-
band was interned at Mineola. Long
Island, as an enemy alien.
To a Journal reporter, Mrs. Peters
Thursday stated that she had been
separated from her husband since
last October, and that his myster-
ious actions were the cause OF the
separation. She stated that on sew
eral occasions, he had attempted to
get her to avow allegiance to the
German government.
Her husband, she stated, was born
in Switzerland, and educated in Ger
many. Before the war, she said,
Peters was a member of the kaiser's
guard of honor.
Thursday morning Mrs. Peters
had almost completely recovered
from the effects of the poison, which
she admitted taking. She operates a
bakery at 3O3 Ponce de Leon avenue.
Peters is a chef at a local hotel,
and gave the police his address as
619 West Peachtree street. To
newspaper men he refused to make
any statement Thursday morning.

to my head from reading SO much
about those things in the papers.
Yeggs and bank robberies-and they
seemed to be getting away with it. "
The notion, once in his head,
fancifuIly, he said, while he lay
awake in bed, and then he tried to
put it way, to sleep. But the thing
was there; he dreamed about it. And
the next day he couldn't get rid of
it. Suddenly he made up his mind
to go through with it.
h. He didn't know much about
bank he was familiar with was the
one at Hapeville. And So he kissed
his wife good-by Wednesday night
and told her he was to work at the
yards that night. Then he cranked
the truck and, with an iron bar for
his only weapon, set off at midnight
on the Hapeville road
Easily Captured

Day, doubtless nervous and amateur

guessed what was happening. He,

He dressed hastily and got the, city

caught Day as he came out of the
door, discouraged and ready to quit
because he couldn't open the door
of the safe.
Mr.. Scoggins was informed. The
people of Hapeville were aroused by
the attempted robbery, yet didn't
know quite what to do about it. Ev-
erybody knew Nick; everybody liked
him. Some of the bank officials said
they didn't care if the whole nasty
business was let go.
But Nick, in remorse, was willing
to face the music. They brought him
to the Tower Thursday morning
while Mr.. Scoggins sent for Mrs
Day and broke the news to her at

Man Makes Valuable

Natives of the Cook Islands in the

amazing results. He says he saw
badly crippled natives completely
cured by swallowing a little of this
oil twice day. Hundreds of let

been answered and oil sent them free
after he returned to America. Mr.. p.

PEGGY MARSH MET
FIELD in ENGLAND

CHICAGO. Ill, Jan. 2O.-Peggy
Marsh met Henry Field, grand
son, of Marshall Field, in Lon
don. After Henry Fields death in
July, 1917, she instituted suit in the
superior court of Cook county, for
the contest Of the Marshall Field
will.
According to the story told by
Peggy Marsh, she had received from
Henry Field at least $4,000 in cash
and presents. He was further said
to have signed an agreement to pay
her 100000. ,
A formal. claim for this latter
amount was filed late in 1919 in the
probate court against Henry Fields
estate. The claim was not contested
by the Field family, who let it be
known that they recognized Peggy
Field.
The suit to construe the will of
Marshall Field so as to give the
actress son a share in his great
grandfather millions was unsuccess--
full. But the court DECISIONS held
the child heir to the $4,O00,0O0 which
Henry Field left when he died
inteState.
The unsuccessful fight for a share
in the undivided principal of the
Marshall Field estate turned upon a
single phrase in the will. Certain con-
tingencies were made by that instru-
ment dependent upon the testator's
grandchildren dying without lawful
ISSUE"
The attorneys for the Marsh in
terests led by Edward F. Dunno,
former governor of Illinois, con-
tended vainly that a child born out
of wedlock might be lawful heir
and that, therefore, Peggy Marsh's
son came within the meaning of the
will The winning contention by the
Field estate attorneys was that the
big Chicago merchant had in mind
the founding of family line to
perpetuate the Field name and eX-
pand it's interests and that only legit-
innate children could share in this

Urges Reserve Bank

Democrat, Georgia, directing the Fed
eral Reserve board to permit their
member banks to make loans to cot

growers, he said, are not getting
within twenty cents a pound of the
