PENNELL A DEFAULTERi I | He is Alleged to Have Embszz'cd 7ru>t Funds. HAD ALSO PUNNED SUICIDE ! U? n?n?r Strong la vairato mat no J Deliberately Reds Over the Prwlptcn I ' Wkn R? and Wife Were Kll.'rd j SeIf-I>e?traellon Said to Oiler JDiot I Only Way to Avoid Disgrace. I Buffalo. N. Y.?It Is snld here that | Arthur R. Pennell. one of the pror.iin1 ent characters connected with the Rurdlck murder mystery, and whose accidental death only added to the mystery, was a defaulter In more than $150,000. and that for two years he had lived with thousrht of suicide. It was said that at the time of the Pan-American Exposition for days he tried to And death In a way that would mnk* it appear accldcntal. and that when the opportunity offered he had not the courage to make the move. ( All this has made the belief stronger , that Pennell deliberately rode over i the odse of a precipice In an | j automobile with his wire on Mnrcn 10. There are few persons In Buf| falo who think renaeil and hi* wife ' plunged to their death as the result of : an accidental twist of the steering ! gear. The sympathy that was attached j to his memory has been slowly slipping away, until now only those who had | been most intimate with him in the | days of his honor and respect stoutly ( defend his name. The startling story came out following a dispute over the disposition of the large sum In which Pennell's life was Insured. It was said the young lawyer Induced friends In the East to give him money for Investment, spent the principal and paid interest out of his own pocket. Incidentally, it has been confirmed that Penneli made provision for the payment of $25,000 of his life Insurance to Mrs. Burdlck. This was the posstoiiiiy amcuHen to luoruugui/ uj the public at the time of the inquest before Justice Murphy. and on which point curiosity was never satisfied. In his will PcnnoH named bis brother, J. Frederick Pennell. as administrator. To him he left scaled Instructions that after his death he should make prood in full out of the estate all the losses which bad been sustained through the alleged defalcations. In the story pubHshed In a conservative local paner It Is said Pennell carried more than $200.000 Insurance, so that bis Eastern creditors might be paid. It Is said Pennell planned two years ago to tfirow himself in front of a train at Peekskill. He stopped off at Peekskill on the way hack to Buffalo from New York. His nerve failed him when he stood face to face with death, and he went his way. Self-destruction appealed to Pennell as the onl;* way to avoid dissrrace during the Pan-American Exposition, it is aljeged. and for days and days be sought a favorable opportunity. It now nppenrs there were two life | policies which had not been handed over to the administrator. One was I tl!? flftft nUmr tnr Sift OHO THma policies had been assigned by Pennell to Wallace Thayer. an attorney, in trust. The insurance companies on advice of counsel held up payments. Pennell's brother went to the attorney to find out the nature of the trust. I Mr. Thayer said he could not talk, as he bad sealed instructions from tbo dead man as to bow be would dispose of the moLcy. and that as a lawyer he could not revcnl the facts. Mr. Pennell urged that as administrator he was entitled to know the full facts liefore be could consent to have the money paid over, but Mr. Thayer refused to see the force of this argument, and kept his silence. As a result Thomas Penney, counsel for Pennell's estate, charged the Insurance companies cot to pay the 125.000 to Mr. Thayer. It now seems probable the money will be paid Into the courts unless the insurance companies take a cLance of paying it either to Mr. Thayer or to Mr. Penney. CHICAGO RF-SLECT3 HARRISON.

Only Ills offenses for the la*t two years could be considered. and he was senteuced to one year in prison. Edds' only defense was that ho had done nothiug more than is the usual custom at Newport. He pleaded that coachman, butlers and other employes of wealthy pejple are paid commissions by merchants with whom they trade for their employers, that the existence of such an arrangement is writ known and is the "universal custom." In apitrovine the verdict Judge Advocate Lemly said of the claim of the defense: "The prosecution has not endeavored to refure this contention and does not desire to refute it. Indeed. It would be willing to accept such contention as being true If It were not Irrelevant t<? this ens?. It would be of use only to show the lack of business Integrity and moral responsibility existing in the city of Newport "It would not Justify or excuse the accused in any way.

Kiv York Albany. N. Y. ? Governor Odell channel the entire tax situation In the Legislature by unexpectedly sending in a special message, in which he told the legislators that it was their plain duty to pass a mortgage tax bill of some ; kind before final adjournment. As a result of this message it was expected that a bill providing for a re- ! cording tax of two and a half mills on mortgages would be passed, and that mortgages will be exempted from all other taxation. The Governor made It perfectly clear that h? bad never been wedded to the Mortgage Tax bill, which Imposes an annual tax of four mills, and which was pending before the Legislature. He pointed out that the present system of mortgage taxation as personal property was unjust to holders of mortgages, who wore nnable to escape payment. and be signified his willingness to approve any one of these four measures: Entire exemption of mortgages from taxation In any form. A recording tax. with exemption from all form of taxation. Annual taxation of mortgages at the rate of four mill* on the dollar. Annual taxation at the rate of two mills on the dollar. Governor Odell had been overwhelmed with letter* from all parts of the State urging him to recommend a more just tax on mortgages than Is provided In the present statute. It was now regarded as certain that therp would be mortgage tax legislation in some form, and the probability favored the recording tax.
