The case of Thomas P. Wickes has been one

of the most confusing -Jekyll and Hyde" cases

r.ver discovered in this city. The history of the

Grinnell-Weston litigation and the part which

Mr. Wickes and "Lewis Jarvis" played therein

reads like a fairy tale. In 1901 Weston was

robbed of a small sum of money by a criminal

named Edward S. Ray nor. Dr. Ashbel P. Grin-nell was arrested, as he bore a striking resem-

blance to the ihief. On proving his identity

ho was discharged.Dr. GrinneU later brought suit for $;>O.OOO. On

the first verdict Dr. GrinneU should have re-ceived 112,500 from Mr. Weston. but the verdictwas set aside. The second trial resulted jn averdict of ?10.000. but it was cut to $5,000.

Last winter, between the third and fourthtrials, Mr. Weston went to Palm Beach. Whilethere' he received letters purporting: to comefrom a friend named "Lewis Jarvis." They allurged him to settle with Dr. GrinneH. Finally,

after a long investigation, it was found that"Lewis Jarvis

*and T. P. Wickes were one and

th© sam? man.

NO SUICIDE FOR PRINCE. \i

Mm Yueng Tchan WillNot Follow i

Ancient Custom.Prince Mm Tuerg Tchan. ex-Corean Minister tp|

France, arrived here yesterday from Cherbourg:

en the Kaiser Wilhelm 11. He comes here to see ,President Roosevelt and present a protest against ;Japan's assuming sovereignty over Corea.

The ex-Minister was seasick on the first three jdays of the voyage, but was in good spirits the rest :of the trip, and up to the time the steamer reached :

Quarantine he mixed to seme extent with the pas-sengers. All the while he did not know that his ibrother. Prince Mm Yong Whan. ex-Corean Mm- jister to the United States, had committed sulcid© :at Seoul— Oriental manner of protesting against \The establishment of a Japanese protectorate over jCorea. The news of the suicida had spread about jthe 6hio at Quarantine long before Prince Mm |

Tueng Tchan was told of it. and a curious throng ,gathered close by the prince's stateroom expecting •that the prince— in keeping with the ancient cus- ;

would commit suicide immediately.

The news of Prince Mm Tons Whan's death wasbetaken to the ex-Minister as he entered the main ;

saloon to give his declaration to the customs in- |

spectors. His lips quivered, and he sank into a ,.hair, paying no heed to questions for three or four iminutes. His head was burled in his hands, and \u25a0

when he looked up his face was more pallid than .After pullinghimself together, the little Corean— i

hf Is about five feet one inch—shook his head in afashion which mipht have been construed to meanthat the suicide of his brother was not a surprise.

"Oh gentlemen! PleaEe don't ask me what Ishall do." he said when asked if he would follow ,the ancient custom. "Idon't know what Ishalldo. It is no longer the custom in Corea for one :to follow the act of a brother who has committed i

suicide. Ishall go to Washington to ask th* Presi- !

dent to intervene in behalf of my country."The suicide of Prince Mm Toner Whan occurred

ehoitly after the Kaiser Wilhelm IIleft Cher- jbourg.

Mass Meeting Called in Boston toSave Historic Frigate.

Boston. Dec. 6—Acting Mayor Daniel A."Whelton issued a call this afternoon for a pub-lic- meeting of citizens to protest against thesuggestion contained in the annual report of theSecretary of the Na\y concerning the historicfrigate Constitution, which is now laid up at theCharlestown Navy Yard. In his report Secre-tary Bonaparte suggested that so much of thematerials of the present Constitution as can beshown to belong to the original Constitution betransferred to a new vessel to be named theConstitution, and that the rest of "Old Iron-eldes" be broken up. The Secretary furtherstated that if for purely sentimental reasons itbe thought that the ship be entitled to a mari-time end. it might be used as a target for someof the ships of the North Atlantic fleet and sunkby their fire.

Flounder and Eels Had StoppedLeah in HelUg Olav.

Six slippery eels and a big flounder did someexcellent repairing at sea on the bottom of theScandinavian-American liner HelllgOlav, on theJaFt trip to Copenhagen.

The steamer reached port late on Tuesday even-ing, and the crew yesterday told of how the watersof the Cattegat were kept out of the ship's holdby the six eels and the big Sounder. On the wayfrom Christiansand the Hellig Olav struck a rockthat was not Indicated on Captain Hoist's chart,and sixteen feet of water poured Into the hold.The suction drew In the big flounder, which servedas an adequate but loose patch. After thp pumps<:l<jared the hold of the water the six slippery eels\u25a0wiggled around the flounder, wedging him In astightlyas a steel plate, and the waters of the Catte-pat were kept out until the Hellig Olav reachedCopenhagen. The splendid piece of piscatorialpatching was discovered whr-ii the ship wer.: intodrydock, and one of th^ more courageous narratorsor.' the Hellig Olav yesterday declared that Cap-tain Hoist ate the big flounder and the six eels forbreakfast.

MAKINE INTELLIGENCE.

Tremendous sales of iron ore have been madeduring; vie week. Never before in tne history ofthe trade have the agsiejjaie sales been so largeat this time of the ytar. although o.<: shipmentsthis year were iu.uu.Mt tuns up to December 1,wnich was S.uOo.Gw tons in excess of the shipment*for the ;-,\u25a0:;.\u25a0 period in the record year of ibi>_, nu-• merous furnaces are hnuing that they nave notfullyprovided for requirements up to the openingof navigation next year. PiontinK by this experi-ence im-naces in the central 'West, have been ac-tive in mailing contracts for o.e for lami. Kaste^nbuyers are, however, surprisingly slow ; in cominginto the market. The -willingness of furnace in-terests to contract at so early a date furnishesstrong evidence of confidence in the continuingprosperity of the iron business.

The terrific sturm of last week on the lakes wasthe most disastrous ever experienced by vessels ofmodern const; uction and has aroused much dis-cussion as to Its effect on the building of steel ves-sels. The storm demonstrated that the large newvessels have not sufficient power of engines tomake certain, the ability to keep Lorn going asho.eduring a .storm of such grr-at velocity of wind andlong duration as that of last week." Already or-ders have been given for three large freighters ofhigher power, and this policy will dououess begenerally followed by shipbuilders. Other changesmay be made as the result of recent experiencesbut there, is no danger that the building of steelvessels will be checKed.

Reports (mm nearly all parts of the country t*Uof decreased buying of pig iron. Itis rather earlyto attribute this aulness entirely to the holidayseason. Activity in finished lines continues.
