PEORIA, III.. Dec. 10. A daring bank
robbery was committed In the heart of the
down town district at 1:20 o'clock this after
noon when three men, wearing slouch hats,
entered the Peoria National bank, and
while two of the men covered Frederick
A. Bracken with revolvers the third
reached through tho teller's window and,
seizing about $500 In currency and silver,
made his escape.
The three men dashed out of the building
after warning everybody not to make a
move and leaped into a buggy standing
near, lashed the horse Into a run. Tht,
streets were crowded at the time and a
crowd was immediately In pursuit of ths
men. They went down Washington to
Fulton, the progress being Impeded by the
crush of wagons on Washington street, In
the wholesale district. The men turned up
Fulton street and at the corner of Adams
and Fulton were stopped for a moment by
the crowd, which had received word of
what happened.
A liberal display of revolvers! frightened
the crowd buck und they turned north on
Madison street. A big crowd took up the
chase, including several automobiles, whose
owners managed to keep In sight of tho
men.
The men traveled rapidly north on Madi
son street, gaining on the crowd and, turn
ing down Eaton street, drove at the top
speed to the river bank, where at the plant
of the Oat Meal company tiey abandoned
their rig and took down the river bank
afoot, disappearing. Possea are scouring
the city In every direction, but the men

CLEVELAND, o.. Deo. 10 The feature
of today's development!) In the financial
transactions of Mrs. Cntle I'- Chadwlck
was tho disclosure 'that she had In her

With this bulking Mrs. Chadwlck was
enabled to obtain large loans during the
last two or three years, must of which
was repaid,' however. The only financial
institution that has so far as is known
been compelled to close on account of the
woman's dealings has been the Citizens'
National bank of Oberlln, the president
and cashier of which are now under In
dictment and under ball on the charge of
misapplication of national bank funds.
The Inducements offered the Oberlln bank
officials were stated today tn have Is-en

$.",000,OCfl estate und that the bankers were
each to receive a yearly salary of $10,oiiu

with of the wrecked Citizens National
oana or Linerun, now in tne possession of
the federal authoriitles Is a story so
startling with relation tn the monumental
transactions of Mrs. Chadwlck us to bo
almost unbelievublc. Hut documentary
proof has forced belief upon the part of the
few who have heard the ainiizlug talc which
is expected to prove the absolute undoing of
Mrs. Chadwlck.
The unequivocal statement Is made In the
confession of President Beckwlth that the
means by which Mrs. Chadwlck se-.-ured
the immediate loans was by u written
promise delivered Into the hands of the
banker that the Citizens' bank would be
made the trustee of the $5.u)0,OO0 estate
which has Just been revealed to the world
as un absolute myth. .
The writtei. promise delivered by Mrs.
Chadwlck to Heckwlth was to the effect
exactly that her affairs would be turned
over to the Oberlln bank July 1, 1!m3. In
consideration therefor President Heckwlth
and Cashier Spear were to receive $10,000
a year each for their trouble. In addition,
the bank was to he-given a bonus of close
to $10,(00 when the loans had ull been paid
back.
This complete statement answers fully the
oft repealed question: "What In the world
actutated the two offlcluls of the Oberlln
bunk In making the Immense loans from the
bank's funds without a scintilla of actual
security?"
I sea a Straw Man.
The story of how Mrs. Chadwick played
with the two bunkers lifter having them
once In her power, as told by Beckwith, is
absorbing In the intensity of Its Interest.
Mrs. Chudwlck calmed the fears of her
victims with the claim that she was a
relative of Andrew Carnegie.
The written confession of Heckwlth goes
into detail of the explanation nmde by Mrs
Chadwlck as to the manner In which the
estate was then being handled. The Wade
Park Hanking company of Cleveland, was
used simply as a depository for the
securities, according to the tale that the
Cleveland woman made the bunkers be
lieve. The estate was said by Mrs. Cud
wick to be In the hand, of three trustees,
all New York men. The nume of one of

Chadwlck said she could not get hold of
the money, except through Baldwin, whdm

person. -Baldwin attended to all the busi
ness "of handling the Interest from the
bonds and turned It over to Mrs. Chadwick
us it became due. The bankers were told
that the yearly income was $750,000. Re
peated efforts were made on the part of
Becwith to get In communication with
Baldwin, but they were always unsuccess
ful. An excuse was always ready when
inquiry concerning Baldwin was pressed.
' Bank To He Trustees.
The Oberlln bank was to be made the
trustees of the stute as soon us the contract
with the then alleged trustees was ended,
which was said to be July 1, 1!W3. When
July 1 of last year came around mutters
were said to be In such shape as to make
It necessary for the estate to remuln in the
same hands for some little time longer.
With the end of their troubles In sight
und a golden harvest within grasp, as the
Oberlln bankers believed they were put off
to commence upon u period of tortureous
anticipation which ehded with the closing
of the doors of the Institution and the
arrest of both the president and cashier.
In relation to the Indorsement of the
notes by Beckwlth and Spear the story
from the banker goes on to relate that the
notes were Indorsed only as a last recourse
In the desperate chase for funds. Tie con
fessed that he hud intended to attempt to
negotiate loans upon the note, but his
nerve failed him. The Indorsement were
put on, it Wise explained, to make the paper
more bankable.
The confession practically tells a story
of how the Oberlln bank bud been used 8
a clearing house for Mrs. Chadwlck's
manipulation. One Instance Is that of the

Just what bus become of the money Mrs.
Chadwlck is alleged to have rnlsed on
loans is a question which Is Interesting
the persons connected with the case.
It has been claimed that three years ago
she settled $2,500,000 on her h'ushand, Dr.
Leroy 8. Chadwlck. and that since that
time she has borrowed over $Ho0,0"i0. A
rumor Is current tonight thiVt efforts will
be made at once to locate Dr. Chadwlck
and his daughter, who sailed for Havre,
France, on the steamer Savola from this
port November 3. They have been reported
from several places In Europe, but Mrs.
Chadwick and her uttorneys huvo kept
their exact whereabouts u secret. Another
mutter of Interest in the case Is the state
ment that Dr. Chadwlck Is said to have
given Herbert D. Newton of Brookllne,
Mass., two checks, aggregating- $50,000, In
payment for his wife's indebtedness, which
are alleged to have come back from the
bank on which they were drawn stamped
"Without funds."
It was intimated today that If Dr. Chad
wick does not return from Europe soon
he may llgure in international proceed
ings. How Trick Was Turned.

public mind. he. said, how he came to be
financially im-olvcd with Mrs. Chadwlck.
He said: 1

NEW YORK, Dec. 10 A novel booklet ii
creating a sensation In financial circles
here and Wall street Is deeply interested In
It, particularly as it Is being circulated by
W. O. Vanderbllt. He tells how he mart

und the story is Intensely Interesting.
Mr. Vanderbllt was interviewed at his

"I met so many people who were groping
In the dark about financial matters I de

learned about business and send It out
es a tribute to my personal friends. But,
dear me. mv friends told evervbodv aliout
I - and my mail Is flooded with requests

'.-
. fellowman than to aend a copy of it to any
one who will write to me at No. 100 Wll
llrim street."

for those who need It most, and that Is
the real essence of true philanthropy. I

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body In Health and
Disease.
The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of us ,the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gavo ua our
dally dose of sulphur and moUssea every
spring and fall.
It waa the universal spring and fall
"blood purifier," tonio and cure-ull, and
mind you, this old-lashloned remedy waa
not without merit.
The Idea wus good, but the remedy waa
crude and unpulatuble, und a large Quan
tity hud to be taken to get any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneHclal effects
of sulphur in a palatable, conceiilraiaJ
form, so that a single grain is far mora
effective than a tablespouuful of the crude
sulphur.
In recent ysuis, research und experiment
have proven that the best sulphur for me
dk'inul use is that obtained from Caleluaa
(Calcium Sulphide; and sold In drug aioree
under the name of Buart's Calcium Waf
ers. They are small chocolute coated pal
Jets and contain the active medicinal prin
ciple uf sulphur In a highly concentrated,
effective form.
Few people are aware of the value of this
form of sulphur In restoring und nui.ntain
lug bodly vigor and health; sulphur acts
directly on the live:-, and excrvlory organs
and purines and enriches the bluod by the
prompt elimination of waste ma'eiiuj.
Our grandmothers knew this when tnty
dosed us with bulphur and molasses avarr
spring und fall, but the crudity and lm
purity of ordinary flowers of nulphur were
often worse than the disease, and cannot
compare with the modern concentrated.
preparation of euipnur or wnicn Bluurfg
Calcium Wafers is undoubtedly the beat
and most widely used.
They are the nutur.il antidote for liver
and kidney troubles and cure constipation,
and purify the blocd in a way thut often
surprises patient and physician alike.
Dr. II. M. Wilkin while expeiimsntlng
with sulphur remedies soon found that the
sulphur from Calcium waa superior to any
other form. He says: "For liver, kidney
and blood troubles, especially when re
sulting from consilpatlon or nialurlu, I
huvo been surprised at the results obtains I

At any rate people annate lind of pills,
