to a reporter for The Journal, "especial

and stock and machinery worth several
thousand more passed from his hands to
Xhoee of his daughter and her husband
never to be returned. Mr. Saunders al

Coached by his second wife, who sat
beside him and supplied some- details
which he omitted either by accident or
design, Mr. Saunders this morning told
his story to The Journal. The family,
constating of husband, wife and a son
9 years of age, reside At 414 Kast Yam
hill street, the house being meagerly fur
nished And the comforts of life few.
"I am 63 years of age," aaid Mr. Saun
