MD CARNEGIE SIGN THE NOTES
Banker Beckwith Claimed He En*
doresd Paper that Bore the Signature
of Steel King—Interest in the Mat
ter Unabated.
New York, Dec. 7.—That the credi
tors of Mrs. Ca*sie L. Chadwick, as
represented by the Ohio men who ar
rived in New York yesterday, are more
anxious to bring about a settlement
of their claims against the woman
than to precipitate a crises by a sen
sational legal step, is believed by Mrs.
Chadwick's local attorneys. They think
this has been shown by the many con
ferences yesterday without apparent
result. It is pointed out also that no
other than a hope that it is not yet
too late to secure a cash settlement
of the claims against Mrs. Chadwick
explains the delay in submitting to
Andrew Carnegie the notes held by
the Gberlin (Ohio) bank for his deci
sion, whether the signature thereon
is genuine.
Attorney Andre*w Squiro, counsel
for treasurer 11 1 Reynolds, of the Wade
Park bank of Cleveland, is quoted to.
day as saying:
“I am in this city representing sev
eral creditors. All that I am looking
for is the cash.’’
It is intimated that the purpose ol
Mr. Reynold’s trip to New York at
the request of Mrs. Chadwick was to
endeavor to raise the funds on th«
Chadwick securities said to be worth
$5,000,000, of which he is said to bfl
trustee.
Despite frequent conferences in this
city yesterday and the sudden removal
of Mrs. Chadwick to another hotel,
which emphasized the fact that she is
watched by two secret service officers,
decisive action in the case seems to
be held in alieyance by some epower-
ful influence.
It was reported today that the delay
was, in a measure, due to a desire to
prevent the imposition of hardship up
on hanks which Mrs. Cfaadhrlolt has
had dealings, but whose part ia her
financial affairs has not yet been mads
public. It is said that if it were
known that other banka had mads
loans to Mrs. Chadwick, a run on them
might be started that would do them
great injury. No one not Intimately
connected with the case knows who
these banks are nor what has become
of a note-for $560,000 which President
Beckwith, of the Oberlin bank, says
he indorsed for Mrs. Chadwick.
There was some anticipation that
the return from Washington of F. F.
Oldham, an attorney of the comptrol
ler’s department, would be a signal
for the presentation to Andrew Came
gie, of the notes in question and that
be might bring instructions from the
comptroller of currency as to his pro
csedur* in the Chadwiclc case.
It wa« made clear last night that
Mrs. Chadwick Is hieing closely
watched by two secret service men
who followed hsr from the Holland
house to the New Amsterdam hotel, it
yet remains to be ascertained who has
assigned them to their task.
There was some intimation today
that the local authorities of Cleveland
might step into the case and bring
the case to an issue by ascertaining
officially whether the disputed note*
bear the signature of Andrew Carne
gie.

New Orleans, Dec. 7.—-Some
strength was given to the cotton man
ket today by a telegram to W. P.
Brown from President Peters, of the
Texas Cotton Growers’ association and
other prominent Texas cotton men.
The telegram said that a mass meet
ing of cotton planters had been called
in eVory county in Texas, Indian Ter
ritory and Oklahoma to take place
Dec. 17, tu devise ways and means to
hold cotton. It was added that Tex
as would hold hers. It was considered
not improbable today that a meeting
of the planters and country bankers
in all the southern states growing cot
ton would be held here about the date
of the Texas meeting to consider
means to meet the conditions imposed
by the report of the bureau of agri
culture. The market opened today
about 6 points higher, January selling
at 763, March at 7.75 and May 7.82.
The advance continued during the
forenoon.

Macon, Ga., Dec. 7.—Maro W. Pot
ter, a young man, who is cashier of
banks at Davisboro, Gleawood and Hel-
soft, Ga., has mysteriously disap
peared and his books, which have
been checked up by an expert, show
a shortage of something Ifke 915,000.
K is said that the amount may ex-
osed 920,000, upon further examina
tion. A feature'of the defalcation is
that all of the alleged crookedness in
the accounts seems to have been ac
compli shed within ninety days before
It was discovered, and the officials are
wondering what disposition Potter
made of the money in so short a time.
