NEW YORK, May q. Fiotation

phone and Telegraph Company's
new IS brought out as long-term

is perhaps carly to judge the effect
which recent enormous offerings
will have on the better grade is
sues, but SO far, at least, bonds of
that description have held firm, or
advanced apparently unmindful of
what else the market has been Civ
en- to digest. While this mornings
somewhat disturbing news from
Genoa tended to quiet the trading

the transit news in most cases
checked yesterdays sharp advance.

"WRINKLED MEAT"v
BUT So YEARS OLD,
U. S. RECORDS SAY

Minneapolis, MIMI, Feb. 17.-That
"Wrnkled Meat" or John Smith, pic
turesque Chippewa Indian, who died
the other day in northern Mime
sofa. was not 1877 years old, but only
88, was the declaration made in Min
neapolis today by Ransom j. Pow
ell, federal enrolment commissioner,
who cited government records to
prove his contention.
Mr.: Powell made these statements:
John Smith was neither a chief nor
the son of a chief, as credited with
being in the popular stories.
His Indian name, "ka-be-nun-gwe-
waince," did not mean "Wrinkled
Meat" when translated into English.
The deep burrows in his cheeks.
brow and nose were caused not by
age, but by disease.
He was born in 1888, or shortly be-
fore that year. and in the Indian cen
sus of 1889 his age was listed as Sc;
he appeared at that time to be more
than 56.t
His grandfather was living as re-
Gently as 1880. and. had 613 listed
descendants about the year 1900.
Outside Of these discrepancies, the
popularity accepted story Of John
Smiths fabulous age and noble birth
is all true, MI. Powell said.
For years certain ~charlatans of his
own race used this poor old mans de-
fcrmity for their WI gain n duped
the sensation loving public into ac-
cepting him as prodigy" Mr..
Powell said.
MANY years ago the ages of elder
~ Indians on the Chippewa r~eserva-
ton were fixed by their relation to the
great fall Of the stars as the Indians
call the meteoric showers of 1888. This
test was applied to John Smith at that
time and it was found he was born in
1888 Of shortly before that year
Il questioned the old fellow a num-
Der of times and found that he was
taking when he tried to tell of things
that happened 100 years ago. He was
clever, but often admitted he was
fooling the people. May he rest in
reace now, but let's not make his al
legged age a historical fact"
