held bench warrants for their arrest
in connection with finance company
shortage of $250,000.
Thomas j. Loveday and Louis A.
Gerand, officials of the Underwriters
Finance Co., of which Tillman was
president, already have been arrested
on charges of conspiracy to defraud.
Loveday and Gerand are said by
authorities to have involved Tillman.
Judge Henry H Hunt, receiver, said
that while the total loss to the COM
pany would be all of $250,000, taken
during the last two years, Tillman
probably had but $25,000 in actual
cash with him when he vanished Sat-
urday, leaving his wife in this city.
Mrs. Tillman last night appealed.
through her attorney, to her husoano
to return and aid the investigators.
Judge Hunt said the company Is
solvent in every way and that the
claims of all creditors could be paid.
Tillman was trailed to a New York
City hotel. A detective said Tillman
had evidently left in haste. His bag

WIDOWED QUEEN
ILL IN ROYAL CAR
Youthful King Stands by
Mothers Bedside on
Special Train.
BY JAMES A. MILLS,

Copyright 1894. by the Associated Pres,
INNSBRUCK, Austria, October IA
Its cargo sorrow. pain and Yugo-
slavia's hopes for the future, a special
train passed through here today.
1t bore Peter II, child-king of Yugo-
slavia; his mother, the widowed Queen
Marie, and her mother, the Dowager
Queen Marie Of Rumania.
The train was heavily guarded, the
blinds on its widows we're drawn;
every precaution had been taken
against repetition of the tragedy at
Marseille, which ended the life of
little Peters father, the late King
Alexander.
Infected Teeth.
The only newspaper man permitted
to board the train here was the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent. To him
Marie OF Rumania divulged that her
daughter had spent the night in tor
ment with infected teeth, Which she
had had under treatment in SWitzer-
land before she started for Paris, only
to learn Of her husbands aSsassina-
tion.
This pain, she said, was aggravated
by the bereaved Queens acute gall
bladder trouble, which had not yielded
10 temporary treatment in Paris.
1t was evident the Yugoslav Queens
condition was serious, because she was
still kept to her bed when the corre-
spondent boarded the train at so D m.
Little Peter stood by his Frustrated
mother in the small compartment,
manfully trying to console her grief
and aSsuage her pain.
Marie Of Rumania. careworn but
courageous, asked the Associated Press
to acknowledge on behalf of her
daughter and herself the hundreds Of
messages of sympathy received from
friends all over the world, especially
from the United States, on the assassi-
nation Of Alexander.
Dowager in Mourning.
Physically and spiritually" said
the Dowager Queen. Il am too broken
TO do this myself"
In her deep mourning robe, black
veil and hooded head she resembled
mother superior in a convent. Il
only hope" she said, that Mignon
cher daughter) and myself will have
strength enough to go through the
ordeal of the Kings funeral"
The train was due at Klagenfurt at
pm. and was scheduled to proceed
from there by way Of Zagreb to Bel
grade, where it will arrive tomorrow
morning
Passengers on the train said Peter
apparently has not yet realized the
full sorrow of his fathers death and
the tremendous responsibility facing
his as King Of country Of 100000
inhabitants.

Laboratory tests show Kellogg's
ALL-BRAN provides "bulk" to ex-
ercise the intestines, and vitamin B
to help muscle tone. Also iron for
the blood.
The "bulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that of lettuce. Inside the body,
it forms soft mass. Gently, it
clears out the intestinal wastes.
How much safer than patent
medicines. Two tablespoonfuls daily
are usually sufficient. With each

SCHOOL HAS
FINE RECORD

Perfect attendance was achieved
this morning by Wilson school,
every pupil registered being pres
ent for work.
Harding school last week almost
made a perfect attendance record,
41O of the All pupils being present.
Other schools of the city are
likewise showing fine attendance
records although they have not
quite reached the goal of perfec-
ton.
Guy A. Weakley, district super
intendent of schools. points out
that the schools are stressing regu-
lar attendance particularly this
fall, and gives the reasons for its
Importance.
From the purely financial side,
regular attendance is important
since the state money is appor-
toned on an attendance basis.
From the standpoint of the pupil
it is equally important because it
develops right habits and attitude.
From still another standpoint it is
important because it is an evidence
of cooperation between the home
and the school and the coopera-
ton and interest of the home is vi
tai to the schools.
Weakley wishes to express his
appreciation both to the parents for
their cooperation and to the boys
and girls for their fine attitude.
