The fact that the entire hay section of the state has been in possession of a description of Schwartz for nearly a week prior to the sailing of the Nordic makes it hard to believe, the j sheriff's office' states, that Schwartz would have waited for it to sail rather than to make an immediate exit from the state. Assertion of District i Attorney Tinning that , proof has been dis closed that a letter left with Mrs, Schwartz to be opened ini event of his death, requested her to take their children to England! for edu cation ' tends to show that Schwartz, if he did participate in a murder plot to obtain insurance, may j have contemplated fleeing from this country by ship and go ing to England, there to unite later! "with his family. i Added to the list of those who, after careful examination!, are con vinced that the corpse found in the laboratory of the imitation silk factory was not that of Schwartz but a substitution, is the name of Albert Schneider, deani. of the Berkeley ; police school,' who de clared that the body does not, in any way, : resemble that of the missing Inventor chemist. . Sheriff Veale Is convinced that Schwartz' knowledge of chemistry was elementary. In a safe search ed today, the sheriff found a for mula for the cutting of silk fiber Uut it was not the result of years of labor on the part of Schwartz, for it ..was copied verbatim from an old book found in an adjoining library. , I it and the Spas I shall turn It over to the Queens county district at torney and ask for action."

Wary, whose role as a modern Cinderella yesterday, carried her through dazzling luxury and attention to day was unhappy. ; "I had rather starve to death than' go through what I am going through now, with all these lies," she said tearfully. Both Mr. Browning and Mary admitted that a ( "souvenir" had been given her parents in the form of two checks for 1 500 each -to be expended for the care- of Mary's sister, : Mildred, who is in a sani tarium in Denver, Colo., suffering. from tuberculosis. I Reports that her father enjoys. large Income from his x60,ooo apartment house are false, Mary said, asserting that the place 19 heavily mortgaged and " that on more than one occasion the family went without food. ,; Mr. Browning revealed today that he had arranged with Lloyds for an Insurance policy of $100,- 000 to be paid to Mary in two years when she will be 18, accord ing to his reckoning. Mr. Brown ing said he had received hundreds of letters congratulating him on his action In adopting her as a companion for his other foster daughter, Dorothy Sunshine, nine years old. ; .

June .25. 1876. holds that the massacre of Custer's command by Sioux Indians was due to dis obedience of orders and "poor Judgment" on the part of General Custer and not to the failure of General Reno to reach him in time with reinforcements. ; Mr. Imo. who served eight years in, the United States army, is now 76 years of age and a resident of this city. j .

That same day be received orders from General Terry to proceed up the Rosebud toward the Indian camp. The or ders specified that the final e gagement was to take place Jnne 26. when all forces would concen trate on the camp. "My detachment, under Colonel Gibbons, crossed the Yellowstone below the mouth of the Big Horn June 24, and camped on the east side of the Big Horn. L troop, under Captain Tyler, which was in advance of Gibbons' command, was fired upon by the redskins, and returned to report. We camped on the Little Big Horn June 2 just- 10 miles from i the Indian camp, all ready for the battle scheduled for June 26. "My troop, under Captain Ed Ball, was sent on In advance next day, with Captain Tyler on the right and Lieutenant Bradley on the left. To Bradley goes the dis tinction of first discovering the bodies of Custer and his slaught ered troops. . v "I reconnoitered with Captain Ball and Bugler Kerney, about 50 yards in advance of the troop, and we came on 24 dead ponies and seven dead Indians, scattered I about a couple of tepees. We also encountered a scouting party from Major Keno's detachment, out looking ror Custer's band, and sent them on to Gibbons' camp to report our find. We returned to camp after . a 10-mile scouting trip. ',. - "., "There we learned of Custer's death. Immediately after that the Swaru, San Francisco, and Ken Smith and Miss Helen Hald.
