T.—It was with a great sigh of relief that United States District Attorney Sullivan re ceived tho Associated Press bulletin this evening announcing Mrs. Chad wick’s arrest. "Mrs. Chadwick’s arrest has been un der contemplation for the last week,” he said. "I waa going to cause her ar rest Sunday when the warrants for Beckwith and Spear were sworn out, but I thought It well to go slow In the matter and delayed action until Tues day evening. At 7 o’clock laat night In Toledo United Btates Marshal Chan dler appeared before United Btates Commissioner Brough and swore to an affidavit charging Mrs. Chadwick with aiding and abetting In the misapplica tion of the funds of a national bank. It was specifically stated In the affida vit that Mrs. Chadwick had aided Pres ident Beckwith and Cashier Rpear of the Cltlsen’a National Bank of Ober- lln, Ohio, In the misappropriation of <12,500 on August 20, 1903, at which time the woman received from Cashier Spear a certified check for the amount stated. This affidavit waa sent In the mall by special delivery to Unit ed Staten District Attorney Burnett of New York with Instructions to Issue a warrant upon It and arrest the wo man forthwith, Burnett, of course, be ing advised by wire to look out for the letter. Tho Procedure. ‘1 received a telegram from General Burnett tonight stating that the pa- pera had been received and the war rant Issued. A few minutes litter came the announcement by the Associated Press that the woman had been nrrest- I have been In constant commu nication with the federal authorities In New York for over a week. At my re quest the attorney general caused se cret Service officers to be placed on guard at the Holland hotel with In structions not to let her get out of their sight for a minute. I also advised Dis trict Attorney Burnett to have addi tional surveillance plRced upon her and he has acted as I requested. If this espionage had not been maintained sho would probably haye escaped us, as Is shown by her sensational attempt to get away In New York this nflernoon. Tomorrow she will be arraigned before United States commissioner and will he aaked to plead. She can either nak for a preliminary hearing or waive an examination and he bound over to tho action of the United States grand Jury which meets the fleet Tuesday In Feb ruary In Cleveland. She may ask for a continuance of the preliminary hear ing which may thus bo delayed for some weeks. If ehe cannot give bnii she will be brought to Cleveland nnd lodged In Jell. If she gives ball after waiving, examination or after the pre liminary hearing Is over she will be free to go where she pleases until the grand Jury pnssea upon the case. The Witnesses. ’I am not quite sure as to the wit nesses I will summon In the case. I can only name one of them at present. This person will be Irving Retford, now clerk of the United States court for the northern district of Ohio, who In 1090 In Toledo defended Joseph Lamb who was arrested with Madame de Vere for rnrgtng 140,000 worth of notes. Lamb being acquitted on the ground that he was held In the wo man’s power and did not knowingly commit a crime. Mr. Betfnrd will he asked to Identify Mrs. Chadwick as Madame de Vere, which he declares he can do. As to the rest of the case which we have prepared, I can not talk at present. The notes signed with Ihe name of Andrew Carnegie will en ter Into It. I suppose, and we may try to prove forgery, hut 1 think we can go ahead with the case without tho ele ment of forgery being proved. As to whether forgery can be proved I am not now prepared to state.” Regarding Ihe arrest of Mrs Chad wick Receiver Nathan Looser said that It need not necessarily Interfere with the bankruptcy .petitions: that she can be proceeded against In bank ruptcy and her assets distributed among her creditors. Receiver’s Petition. Application was made late today In Ihe United Btates district court for * ho summonsing of Cassia U Chadwick. Irl Reynolds and Emil Hoover, the son of Mrs. Chadwick, for purposes of ex amination In bankruptcy proceedings. The petition waa filed by Nathan Looser, receiver for the Chadwick estate. The petition recites that nlthough reasonable effort has been made, tho receiver has thus far been unable to secure possession of the property of Mrs. Chadwick; that Irl Reynolds has In his possession or under his control a rertaln portion of tha estate, constat ing of certain stocks, bonds, notes and other securities heretofore certified by the said Reynolds to he worth live mil lion dolls re: that Mrs. Chadwick has In her poaeesslon or under her control a large quantity of diamonds and other personal property which should now be In Ihe possession of Ihe petitioner, and that Emil Hoover has In hi# poa- eesaion, or under h*s control, property belonging to Mrs. Chadwick. Copy of Note, The correspondent of the Associated Press today was shown a photographic copy of the famous note for <250.000 SLUMP IN COTTON. Farmers Considerably Worried Over tho Prospect. ATLANTA, Ga.. Dec. 7.—State Sen ator 3. T. Duncan of Douglasvllle waa hero today. He said there was noth ing new In his section of the state. “All of our people.” said Senator puncan, "and particularly the farm- era are talking about the slump In cotton. They do not know what to do, and many of them have come Into my store within the past few days and asked me for advice. Now. while I hate to offer them advice for fear that I may tell them to do the wrong thing, still I can’t held believing that It will be a mistake to sell cotton at present prices and have so advised them. I have told them not to sell unless they get pushed-up for money and have gone so far as to tell them that I wll advance them money If they need It. It Is my opinion that cotton has about reached bottom. It may go low er but not much. That Is my opinion, but I may be wrong.” Senator Duncan while ta Sting had for an audience nn Atlanta broker who keeps well Informed In matters of this kind, an out of town cotton buyer and the correspondent of Tho Telegraph, The Atlanta broker taking up the con versation at this Juncture said: •My advice Is to hold cotton, and from what I can learn the farmers are doing this. There are plenty of orders on the market from foreign spinner., hut the buyers are unable to flu them. I saw a man today who had an order for 2,000 bales and told me that tho Hum total of his purchases was four bales. Now this don't look like the people have gone craxy and want to sell. The price of cotton depends largely upon the nerve of the farmer who has his cotton still on hand. If he will stand Arm the price will ad vance, but If he gets excited and turns It loose, thnt will mean large port re ceipts and then the Jig 1s up. Keep down the port receipts and the price will advance. That Is my opinion. The spinners will have to come across as they need the cotton, rtprlng quota tions should go up If the farmers will conclude to reduce the acreage, and give it out that they are going to do so. go up for the reason that the spin ners will have to guard against next year’s crop being short, and buy cot ton accordingly. I havo been a ’bull’ all along and am so still. Cotton may go down hut not much. I think it has struck rock bottom or very nearly so. But, as I have said before, the whole thing depends upon the nerve of tho farmer, which will be shown by tho port receipts. This Is the thing to go by. Watch the port receipts and they will Indicate what tho farmer Is do ing.” The out-of-town buyer who had JSI malned silent until now then chipped In by saying: "Well. In my opinion, the farmers aro holding their cotton. I have been out among them for the last three days and wanted to buy. but they aro not.In the selling mood. I have several foreign orders that I would like to AH but the farmers aro not disposed to sell at present prices. I don’t know what to do. I want their cotton, hut they will not let me have It. nnd there you are. I have not succeeded In buy ing a hale.

Upon ithl* occasion cently returned from a visit to Wisconsin, where he found the formers , many of them German or descendants of strictly German stock, in a most prosperous con dition. He paid a high tribute to the German population of that state, saying that they were an industrious lot of peo ple, and that they were a good class of citizens. In referring- to them Oovernor Terrell expressed the wish that something could bo done to attract this class of cit izens to Georgia, nnd expressed the belief that If the tide could get a start in this direction it would not be long before the waste places in Georgia would bloom with prosperity. Mayor-elect James G. Woodward spokn Inter on In tho programme, and referring to the remnrku made by the governor with reference to encouraging Germans to come to Georgia to live. Mr. Woodward, as a representative citizen of Atlanta, said: *‘I would like to see more Germans come to Atlanta, but l will tell you why they have not come here. The German people are n liberal people, and we aro too narrow-minded to suit them. We must broaden our views upon a good many things before we can hope to hav/» them come in any great number* and live among and with us. Atlanta Is not a liberal city. I believe that If the af fairs of tho city were administered In a more liberal manner and more freedom allowed to its citizens, thnt In tho next ten years wo would see such prosperity here as we never dreamed of." Mr. Woodward spoke with much earn estness. and whnt he said was listened to attentively, but what Impression he mudo upon his hearers remains to he seen. indicated that it would be his aim while holding tho reins of the city government for the next two years. »o give to At- SPECIAL NOTICES FUNERAL NOTICE.
