A few days ago he asked Frieda to promise Bhe would marry him a few years hence, when she would be older and he would be in better position to support her.

Schwamb's parents, who live at 102 Forest avenue, Glendale, refused to tell a reporter what the trouble was that was mentioned In the suicide's note. "You must find that out for yourself," they said.

L. August 10 His eminence. Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore, arrived In Southampton last evening, about 5 o'clock, to remain for three weeks at the rectory of the Church of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, as the guest of the Rev. Francis J. O'Hara, rector of the church.

The cardinal was accompanied by the Right Rev. Mgr. James S. Duffy, rector of St. Agnes Church, lyn, and the Rev.

John J. Ponlan of Centre Moriches. His eminence journeyed from Brooklyn to Centre Moriches on Tuesday, coming on to Southampton yesterday afternoon in Mr. Sturges" automobile. This Is his annual visit to southeastern Long Island, and he Intends to remain for almost three weeks.

It Is probable that he will preach both Sundays during his stay at the 10:30 o'clock mass, unless Cardinal Gibbons, Prelate who is visiting at Southampton, L. I. some unforeseen circumstance, arises to prevent his doing so. The cardinal is feeling as well as he ever did and looks much better than he has for some years oast. However, he seeks a complete rest in Southampton and will not participate in any public function whatever during his stay.

He needs the rest in order to be in good health for the coming Jubilee celebration in Baltimore, which begins on October 15. When asked about his plans for the Jubilee, his eminence said the exercises would begin on the morning of October IB with a solemn mass, at which Archbishop Glennon of St. Louis will preach the sermon. In the evening Archbishop Blenk of New Orleans will deliver the sermon at solemn vespers. During the succeeding week, the cardinal said, the programme will consist of numerous ex- ennnin ticipating societtes.

As to the cardinal's plans while he is in Southampton, besides his preaching on Sunday, Father O'Hara will accompany him on a visit to the seminarians, who are summering at the Villa St. Joseph, on Mecox Bay, during the coming week. On Saturday or Monday, Bishop Foley of Detroit is expected at Southampton, to remain for a few days during the cardinal's visit. 70-YEAR READERS WRITE Respond to Invitation for The Eagle's Anniversary Number. The Brooklyn Eagle will celebrate its seventieth birthday on October 26, and the old readers of The Eagle those who have read the paper for fifty, or sixty, or seventy years will all have a place In the anniversary number which is to be issued on that day.

In response to The Eagle's Invitation a number of these old readers have already written letters to the newspaper. There are many others who have not yet written. The Eagle, therefore, renew-g its invitation to them to take the places waiting for them In the big "Eagle family." They are urgod to send In their impressions of the paper, comparing it with The Eagle they know In the days of their youth. Anyone who was born on October 1841 the day The Eagle was founded becomes aul omaticnlly a member of The Eagle family, because of that cheerful fact. If you are one of such, send In your name.

If yoi know of anyone who comes in that category, send in his or her name. Primarily, the great birthday number will be an issue full of the hlit.iry of Brooklyn. Of course It will contain the story of th" growth and development of the newspapers, but It will contain a general view of the progress of the world since 141. The world of today will not be neglected, and mnny of the foremost thinkers of modern times will contribute articles bearing on the relation of the past to the present and to the future. The future of Brooklyn Is to be forecast by men who can read what Is to come in the Intellectual and Industrial development of society.

Altogether the whole issue is to be one well worth the preserving. PASTOR WATSON SEIZES MAN. Startled Passengers In Subway Accused Prisoner of Pocketpicking. The Rev. William S.

Watson of 219 High Bireet, minister in charge of St. Michael's Episcopal Church, High street, r.tartled passengers on a subway train Ihe lSth street station, the Bronx, last evening by seizing a young man and pinning him hy the arms, so that he could not move. The pastor was with W. H. Truesdale of Geneva, N.

Y. They were returning from Van Cortland Park. The Rev. Mr. Watson says he saw the young man abstract a wallet from the pocket of Mr.

TruesdaV.e, and seized him. Policeman McCue. who was on the trai 1, arrested the alleged culprit, who said he was John Harris of the New York Hotel, Seventh avenue and Thirty-fifth street, Manhattan. He was charged with larceny. There was $20 In the wallet, which was not found.

Is a Former Brooklynite Now Hopes to Get Back on Police Force. After being partially blind and unable to see ordinary print for eight years, Ralph Swlnerton, a former Brooklynite, awoke from a hypnotic trance yesterday afternoon and found himself able to read headlines in a newspaper. Although the cure at present is only partial, Swlnerton is confident that after taking the treatment for a few months his eye sight will be Wholly restored.

This morning In his home at 418 West Fortieth street street, Manhattan, Swlnerton told an Eagle reporter of his experience yesterday while under the influence of Dr. Alfred J. Fox, who hypnotized him in his office In the Hotel Frederick, Fifty-sixth street, near Broadway, Manhattan. "1 first heard of Dr. Fox early In the week, being told of the remarkable cure of a paralytic which he effected recently by hypnotism.

I went to him and after I had explained the trouble with my sight, he put me In a short trance Turd-day afternoon which, however, brought no results. "Yesterday afternoon I made my sec ond visit. He seated me In a chair and told me to rest my head on its back. Then he instructed me to carefully concentrate my thoughts on the matter ot my sight and to look him squarely in the eye. Of course I couldn see him at all, but I could tell Just about where to look.

"It occurred to me then that hypnotizing a blind man is quite a different proposition than one who can see; for generally the eye plays a very Important part in the process. With my thoughts concentrated and my eyes staring vacantly straight ahead, I sat for several moments while the doctor murmured In my ear. "I passed off in a doze almost before I knew it. For nearly an hour I was In the chair in a sound sleep, not even broken by a dream. All the while, so I was told afterward.

Dr. Fox was telling me that my eyes were getting stronger, and that I could see, and that 1 would soon be all right. He evidently used the power of suggestion. "When I awoke from my trance I was shown a paper and could read the headlines easily, but I was still unable to see the ordinary print. But even that is a great Improvement.

I feel confident of being cured." Swinerton, who is a bachelor, formerly lived in this borough, at the corner of Wythe avenue and Hewes street, but in 1896 he moved to Manhattan and entered the police force as a patrolman. In 1902 his sight began to fail and at the end the year he was compelled to leave the force. On account of his Improvement he now hopes to get back on the force again. EAGLE PAKIS BTJEEAU CALLERS.

FINNEY INQUEST SATURDAY. Popular New York Actor Lost His Life in Spectacular Blaze That Damaged Carlton Hotel. London, August 10 The loss to the American guests at the Carlton Hotel, the two upper floors of which were damaged last evening by a spectacular fire that drove the occupants of the much-patronized hostelry into the street, is not so heavy as had been This ig particularly true of those who did not attempt to remove any of their belongings during the course of the fire. The guests who deserted their rooms as they were when the flames broke out found this morning that the salvage corps had done their work so thoroughly that in many cases their baggage, clothing and other possessions, even down to toilet articles, had been undamaged. James R.

Keene got out some of his baggage last evening and the rest of it this morning. It was little worse for having passed through a Are. The Americans, of whom there were many stopping at the hotel, highly prase the work of the salvage corps, a body of men maintained by the Insurance companies. Upon receiving the alarm practically the whole corps was sent to the Carlton. The different companies were assigned to various floor and went systematically from room to room, piling up their con tents and covering them with tarpaulins The loss to the hotel Is estimated at $150,000, but this probably is underestimate, as all the ceilings and most of the furniture must be repiacea.

The Americans had no great praise for the fire department, the work of which they considered slow as compared with that of the Are fighters in American cities. The Are department places the hlnme for their delay in getting to the scene to the hotel management, who tried to put out the blaze when it originated in the elevator shaft in the kitchen quarters on the top floor, with appliances in the house before sending out an alarm. The hotel management endeavored to belittle the fire and up to the last moment withheld t'he fact that Jameson Lee Finney, the American actor, had been burned to death In the bathroom adjoining his room on the fifth floor of the annex. An inquest into the aeatn ot Mr. in ner will be held on Saturday.

Amone the Americans who were guests at the Carlton were John Purroy Mitchel, nresident of the Board of Aldermen of New York City; James R. Keene, the well- known financier; John Wanamaker, C. C. Woolworth, Frank Brown, former Governor of Maryland; Blllie Burke, the actress; Vance McCormick of Chicago; F. W.

Woolworth. the merchant; Mr. and Mrs. A. L.

Pratt of New York. R. W. Daniel, a Philadelphia banker, and dozens of. others.

Thomas A. Edison, tne inventor, who has been staying at the Carlton, was absent when the fire occurred. Finney Had Presentiment of Impending Evil. The body of Mr. Finney will be cre mated after the inquest and the aBheB will be sent to the United States to be burled beside the grave of his mother, who died last April.

This is in fulfilment a wish expressed by J'r. Finney a short time ago. It appears that he was much broken In spirit by the death or his mother, and subsequently entertained a presentiment impending evil to himself. Only last June he made a will, In which he gave directions to Miss Ada Dwyer.the actress, New York, with whom ae bad been associated, for the disposal of his body and his effects. Miss Dwyer today said that Mr.

Finney's apprehension ot ill fortune was so strong that when they discussed sailing for America, he insisted that they travel on different vessels so that she would not be Involved In the catastrophe that he anticipated would overtake mm. The body was so badly charred that it could not be recognized. It was iden tified by Miss Dwyer through a chain which the actor wore on his neck and finger rings. It appears that when Mr. Finney tried to get out of the bathroom adjoining his room and in which he perished, he took a wrong direction and found his supposed exit blocked th Hen, being locked.

He was suffocated apparently before he was able to find a way VUl. PLANT MUST SHUT DOWN. (Special to The Eagle.) Bellmore. L. I August 10 The Rev.
