WIFE HAS TO SUPPORT HIM Prisoner Retains Attorney Who Will Defend Her She Changes Her Stories So Often, Lawyer's Task Is Made Hard. CLEVELAND. O.. Doc 15. Mrs. Chad i!rk's flrK day In the County Jail wa a busy one fur her. oho received several jfit from her attorneys, held long con ' rencae with them, conversed with news japer men. and for 15 minute stood faoo f face with President Beckwith, of the Oberlln Bank, who has come to so much trouble through his financial transactions with her. Thp meeting was dramatic. The aged banker, who had for hours been brfore the county grand jury, went to t!ie office of Sheriff Barry this afternoon, and apked if he might see Mrs. Chad wick. The Sheriff readily consented, and Mrs. Chadwif): was caper to meet him. Accompanied by Mrs. Beckwith, who. owing to her husband's ill health, is al ways by his Hide, the aged banker made is way rfowly and feebly up the long fl.ght of stairs leading to Mrs. Chad Rjck'f cell. She met him at the entrance the corridor, and shook hands with i 1m cordially. After tomc general con- "rsation. Mr. Beckwith referred to thoir t jsinene relations by saying: ' Mrs. Chadwick. you have ruined me, lut I'm not wo sure yet you are a fraud. I hpve stood by you to my last dollar. ; d I do think now that the time has ' 'me for you to make known everything l.i relation to this thing." Bcckwith's voice betrayed deep emotion as he spoke, and he leaned heavily on the ?rm of his wife, who was almost com pelled to support him. so great was his 1 hysical weaknes. Mrs. Chadwick did not reply directly to the words of Mr. Beckwith. but her man- A CORRECTION In our display advertisement of FINE ART PIANOS and artists who use them that appeared in the Journal of the Hth and Oregonlan of the 15th. our adwrlter unintentionally made a mistake by saying Madam GadakI, who is to appear here De cember 19 would use the Baldwin piano, when it should have been De Pachmann, who will appear here about the 1st of February. We have no desire of taking credit for anything that does not prop erly belong to us, hence our first oppor tunity to correct the mistake, and we trust Madam Gadski will take no offense inas much as we had her name connected with a piano of the highest excellence, and the one, as we stated In our advertise ment, that took the Grand Prix at the Paris Exposition In 1M0 and the Grand Prize at the St. Louis Exposition just closed. The following telegram perhaps in partly responsible for the mistake: Boston, Mass., 2Sth Oct D. H. Baldwin Co.: My concert with the Boston Symphony Orchestra today was a most gratifying success. Allow me to compliment you on the exquisite tone and perfect evenness of touch of the Majestic Grand you have furnished for this concrt. VLADIMIR DE PACHMANN. It will be gratifying news to the music lovers of Portland to know that De Pach mann is to appear here a little later in the season under the direction of Miss Lois Steers, through whose enterprise and energy Portland has had the privilege of hearing many of our tinest artists.

Mr. Beckwith went on: 1 have always tokl you that 1 did not like it because you changed your lawyers so often. Why don't you get a good one and stick to him?" "Well." said Mrs. Chadwick, in roply. "1 have reasons for that." "Have you heard from Judge Olqott re cently?" wao Mr. Beckwith's next ques tion.' "Not since I loft New York," was Mrs. Chad wick's reply. "Has he ohangod his mind?" "No: he has the same belief that ho has always held." Thanks Them for Calling. To what matter the questions referred was not known. Mr. and Mrs. Beckwith then both said they hoped the matters connected with the Chadwick affair would be eventually straightened out. The Inter view then closed. Mrs. Chadwick thanked them for calling, shook hands with Mr. and Mrs. Beckwith, and said she would be pleased to have them call again. There is a possibility that a hearing in the Chadwick case may be resumed to morrow morning in the bankruptcy court, and that she will be summoned as a wit no, although the poselbllitiea are that the hearing will go over until Saturday, and possible until Monday. Receiver Loeser said late this afternoon that he made no arrangement .to have her summoned tomorrow, although he might ask in the morning that it be done. u know nothing of her physical con dition,' said Mr. Loeser, "and do not wish to have her called until she is able to undergo an examination that may be of some length.
