all street was astounded yesterday by
gew revelations in the Adam’s Express Com
pany's embrogllo, and the hundreds of busi
ng, god social friends of John Hcey, tho
deposed president, were pained to learn that
sold out every dollar's worth of his stock
in the corporation just before tho Boston
Dispatch atd Kiulev Express negotiations.
t larp BpooDer, tho then vice president,
srns in tho same transaction, and he. too,
a-soosed of all of his holdings in thd coui
'nv's shares prior to t e '‘turn” which on
‘ c Jg,i him to the extent of 8172,333. The
committee of investigation was thunder
struck when these discoveries were made.
The news reached Wall street before the
members of the committee recovered from
their astonishment.
••Just think of it,” said one of the man
agers of the company yesterday, the presi
dent and vice president of the great Adams
Express Company sell all their stock and
then buv certain property for the company,
~a y ing for i , out of tho treasury, 8700,000
more than it is worth!” The speaker was
excited, and before he cooled off he inad
vertently dropped tho remark that another
gentleman, high in the councils of the com
pany, was also implicated in what he called
a very questionable transaction. ‘‘The cor
poration has been cheated out of a large
Bum of money,” added the irate manager.
President Sanford, Vice President L ve
joy and Manager W. B. Dinsmore, the com
mittee appointed Tuesday to investigate the
financial affairs of the company, were in
session at the company’s main office. No. 59
Broadway, for four hours yesterday and
accomplished much of importance.
••(J me in,” said President Sanford at 3
o'clock to a Morning Advertiser reporter.
••I want to introduce you to our new vice
president."
The reporter passed through the gate
where two watchful clerks have stood on
guard for the past three days and was
escort* and into the big directors’ room. Vice
president Lovejoy and Committeeman
Dinsmore were seated at the big mahogany
council table end were delving in books,
documents and papers to find out just how
the company stands financially. It is a big
task to go over all the accounts of millions
of dollars’ worth of business extending over
the past three years—since Mr. Hi ey’s in
cumbancy—and the members of the com
mittee were inclined to believe that a re
port could not be prepared before Oct. 28,
at which date the board of managers meet
again.
it is said that a good many suspicious en
tries and items have been discovered which
tne ex-president and ex-vice president will
be called upon to explain.
“You may ray,” exclaimed President
Sanford as he dramatically drew up his
tall form, “that the officers of this company
will spare no effort to recover the large
sums of money which have been unlawfully
taken from the treasury.”
"Will suits at law be instituted?” was
esked.
"Undoubtedly.”
“Will a criminal prosecution be at
tempted?”
“It may come to that.”
"Mr. Hcey does not own a dollar’s worth
of stock,” said the president. “1 regret to
fay that this statement also applies to Mr.
Spooner.”
This was what the investigation revealed
yesterday. The old president and vice
president, soon after they went into office
m ISBS, actually sold oat all of their shares
of tiie stock and the same men made the
trade by which the Adams Express Com
pany acquired the Boston Dispatch and
Kmslej' Express Companies in Now Eng
land for the sum of $850,000. The new
officers find that Hoey & Spooner, who
(lesuowledged in the supreme court before
Judge Ingraham last April that they
divided the sum of $700,000 profits on thi3
deal, did not own a dollar’s worth of stock
at the time of the transaction nor for the
past three years. Yet they held office
during these years, until forced out, and the
president has actually drawn nearly SOO,OOO
in salary since ceasing to be a shareholder.
He,,ry C. Taft is said to be the fourth
mau involved in the deal, “Mo. 8” being in
cognito at piesent. The committee expects
to uuoarth other queer things to-dav, and
they are prepared for any sort o? a surprise.
"Is it any wonder that we wanted to get
rid of those two men ?” said a manager yes
terday with indienatiou. “It is the most
remarkable situation ever coming to my
knowledge,” he continued. “How two
men. with not a penny’s worth of interest
in a company with a capital of $21,000,000,
could pocket their shares of a $700,000 ‘ deal’
and continue in office three years without
discovery passes my understanding. It was
one of the oloverest and most audacious
schemes of financiering in the history of
M all street. And now it is said that the
'aw cannot reach the ex-president. The
worst cart of it is that we have discovered
that we cannot collect a dollar from the two
ej-offl.ters, there are so many judgments
already ahead of us.”
Mockholders aro becoming a trifle nerv
ous over the revelations in the affairs of the
orl rock-ribbed Adams Express Company,
hliares have sold off from 147 to 140 since
•heexposures, but brokers do not fear that
tbere will he any great decline in the price
of the stock.
Fnsnds of Mr. Hoey at Deimonico’s yes
terday said that tho ex-president would
mate a statement soon and completely ex
onerate hiuiself from the charge of mal
feasance in office. Mr. Hoey has a host of
friends who aro very loyal to him, and one
of them suggested yesterday that the pub
lic should withhold judgment until tho ex
president could be heard.
A dispatch from Bridgeport, Conn., yes
terday says that tho story relative to the
double dealing practiced by ex-Vica Fresi
oant Clapp Spooner has caused much
B.tomshment in that city, in which Mr.
Bpooner has lived for the past thirty yeara.

father, Ira K. Ordway, as a cloihing cutter,
with an office on Madison street, and made
money. He took to drink soon aftor his
marriage, and began to associate with dis
reputable people.
Things gradually grew worse, and no
money was coming into the household, when
one ioght Albert stood before the mirror
with a mask on his face, and firmly declared
that he was going to have some money from

night he did not return, but the next morn
ing he returned to the house without any
6hoes, but with
A BLOODY HANDKERCHIEF.
This handkerchief he tried to wash at a
saloon before returning home.
When questioned by her ho said that ha
had lent his shoes to 'i’ascott, who had been
injured by being shot, and was lying in the
rear of a saloon on West Madison street.
Tascott at that time rented and occupied a
room on the corner or Elizabeth and Madi
son streets, and Mrs. Ordway and her hus
band were living at No. 360 South Morgan
street, between Monroe and Adams.
One of tho most important statements in
the woman’s story is that she declares that
Tascott is dead.
She says she knows he was strangled to
death and his body made away with by his
pals. In that connection she frequently
mentioned the names of Funkhouser, Mars
den and Reynolds.
Ordway was acquainted with Millionaire
Snell, as he made a great many garments
for him, and had borrowed money from him
at times. One day Albert introduced her
to Mr. Snell while walking along one of the
streets in Chicago.
Subsequent to the murder of Millionaire
Snell she says her husband was continually
nervous aud always seemed very anxious to
leave the city. After a good deal of persua
sion she agreod to accompany him to Balti
more. Mrs. Mary Ana Watts sent money
to her daughter for the trip. After they
arrived iu Baltimore she told him she in
tended
TO EXPOSE HIS CRIME.
This made him grow desperate and
despondent and he took to drink. He
always had money but did not work. She
sometimes spoke of his connection with the
crime to her mother, but was always
silenced by Albert reminding her that she
loved him, and that she had frequently
declared that she would die for him. This
usually had the desired effect.
Mrs. Ordway is 33 years old and was born
in this city. She grew to be a b autiful
girl, tall and of good figure, witu black hair
and eyes. Her hair is now gray, her cheeks
sunken and her forehead wrinkled, but
many traces of her former beauty remain.
She was tliree times married. Her first
husband was named John Cbesley.
Mrs. Watts, the unfortunate woman’s
mother, is 84 years old. She said her daugh
ter had singularly attractive manners and
conversation. She was used to a life of
luxury aud plenty, and being childless an l
at her age unable to stand a life of poverty
the memory of the past dreadful events
continually unbalanced her mind.
PAM AND EVA VINDICATED.
Pastor Junor Decides that Their Story
is Strictly True.
From the New York World.
Jacksonville, Fla. , Oct. 14.—The Rev.
Mr. Juuor started for home this morning
satisfied, apparently, that Thornton and
Eva are as innocent as lambs. The pastor
has spent several days iu tho country lying
between this city and the Atlantic
ocean, and has gone carefnllv over tho
route that the castaways claimed to have
traveled, and ha3 seeu nearly every person
with whom they conversed while in Florida.
“I started out on the assumption that
Thoratou’s story is true, and so far I find
nothiug to shake my faith in his integrity,”
said he to a correspondent. “Thornton says
that he and Miss Jewell were set ashore on
the Atlantic coast not far from the mouth
of the St.’Johns river. Tho country was,
of course, new to them, and the statement
that their landing place was between May
port and Pablo was only a surmise of theirs.
[ have been all over the country down
there, and I am firmly convinced
that it was possible for them to
have been lauded south of Pablo Beach, and
to have reachod Jacksonville in the manner
described by them. If they had been landed
six miles or more south of Pablo they could
have struck out iu a northwesterly direc
tion, and have reached South Jacksonville
by boat and by cart, without any of the
geographical impossibilities that some of
the newspaper reports have woven about
them. They would, of course, have been
obliged to cross a railroad track once, if not
twice, but in their anxiety to reach civil
ization they might not have noticed this.”
“Did you find the house or log cabin
where they said they got their breakfast?”
"No, for I did not search for any such
house. Mr. Thornton says the report of his
story was incorrect in this one particular,
and the reporter who got tho interview says
it is oossiblo that he may have misunder
stood Thornton on this one point. It wai
regarded as a trivial inaccuracy then; now,
however, it has a very important bearing
upou the oise.”
Mr. Junor, in his travels, found nobody
who had seen a Spanish vessel “laying to”
off the coast, nobody who saw a ship’s boat
land with the castaways, and nobody’ who
saw the pair on their tramp across the coun
try or in tho rude conveyance in which they
claim that they completed their journey.
He has not, as far as he will discioso, dis
covered the man who drove them to South
Jacksonville, nor has he found anybody
who saw them cross the ferry on
the Sunday noon in question. But
ho has seen all the attaches of the
St. John’s house, and discovered the waist
of Miss Jewell's dro-s, which she said was
given her by the first Spanish captain’s
wife and the quarters that they occupied
in the lludnall block. He talked with the
people in the St. John’s house and its an
nex, and found nothing in their testimony
to erimiirate the castaways. He cross-ex
amined Conductor Barr, taking down his
testimonv in short-hand, but faded to shake
his identification of Samuel and Eva. Ed
itor Carter’s story, too. was not altered a
Brother Roebuck has not yet returned
from the woods, where he went so sudfeuly
last night to capture the negro who helped
the castaways by a ride on his cart.
It is now pretty well understood that Sam
and Eve went down to Pablo Beach on Sun
day morning (after arriving hero Saturday
night) to get tho lay of the land prelimi
narv to preparing their story.
Pastor Juuor says there are slight discrep
ancies between the statements of Carter and
Barr, and that he proposes to ue these dis
crepancies to break the force uf their toeti
rnoiiy.
Samuel Roebuck ha* evidently seen a
nucleus for a uovel in the alleged advent
urea of Thornton and Miss Jewell. He is
at present in Florida collecting data for
that purpose. It Is the intention of r *
Roebuck to tell the s'orv in detail, and with
as little preface • possible. Mr. Roebuck
is also an artist, and the illustrations which
the book will contain will lie by tamejlf.

T3S SEARLES WILL CONTEST.
A Settlement Alleged Giving Timothy
Hopkins $10,000,000.
F~om the Sew York Hun.
Boston, Oct. 14.—Timothy Hopkins has
consented to stop the contest of the Searles
will for tho consideration of ?10,00u,000, and
Edward S. Searles. it is alleged, has con
sented to give up that amount of the estate
rather than undergo the tortures of the ia
quisition agaiu. All this was brought about
iy the lawyers last night. Ihere wus
a secret conference in this cltv,
which was attended by lawyers and
principals. The lawyersdid all the talking.
They were Messrs. Burley, Endicott, B alt,
Wilg n, Lincoln. and Mr. Allen of New
York. Tney came togother early aud did
not disband until early this morning. A
stenographer was in the room, and took
notes of every proposition and the action
upon it. The principals were near by, but
it was thought wise that they should not be
in the room. Timothy Hopkins wanted
$12,000,000, on the assumption that the
estate inventor ied $25,000,000.
When the contested will case was ad
journed on Sept. 24 to Oct. 14 the lawyers
were debating tne question as to whether
certain documents bearing upon the con
troversy w era included in an order of the
court calling for all the papers that in any
way related to the hearing. When Lawyer
Burley, the senior counsel for Timothy
Hopkins, asked for the correspondence be
tween Mrs. Hopkins and the members of the
so-called copartnership and the cheek books
of Mr. Searles, he was informed they had
nut been brought to court, as it was believed
that they were not included in the order. It
was then decided that another demand
should be made for these necessary
documents, as they held a vital relation
to the charge of conspiracy entered
by Timothy Hopkins against Searles
and his alleged confederales to defraud
Timothy out of his rightful inheritance.
The will of Mrs. Hopkins divided her vast
estate between her husband and her adopted
son, and both were to serve as trustees w ith
out bonds. Shortly before Mrs. Searles’
death she caused to be executed a codicil in
which so much of the original instrument,
as referred to Timothy was stricken out aud
Lawyer Hubbard named in his place. This
codicil was the center of attack by Timothy
when he entered his protest against the pro
bating of the will. After a long conference
between the lawyers on both sides and
Judge Hammond it was finally decided to
adjourn the further hearing
of the case until Oct. 14,
aud in tne meantime all th<* documentary
evidence wa3 to bo collected and brought to
the court room. Before that time a rumor
famed circulation that Searles had offered
imothy $3,500,000 to compromise the whole
thing, but this proposition was not eutor
tained. Then camo unother report that
the hearing had been further adjourned to
Oct. 20. The fact that the negotiations for
a compromise have been going on in secret
and have been concluded will undoubtedly
be denied by counsel.

Painted on paper by the pen of such a novelist as Henry Tames will
do very well, but the real portrait of a real lady is a very different
affair. Has she pimples on her face, or blotches? Is her complex

have to put them all down. The lady’s remedy for her pimples,
blotches and sallowness is u the great vegetable rem
