friends who rushed to tho fourth floor
with a policeman. Loud voices, as If
the two were quarreling, had been heard.
Shortly before going up to his fiancee's

friend thit ho believed ho had lost her
love.
Miss Palmer, who had been engaged to
Heckler for two ears wished to post
none the marriage ui.tl. she haci achieved
IT greater (success. Heckler Insisted that
the wedding date be net for tho near
future Doth had won distinct honors
on the' musical stage. Miss Palmer, who
mm 23 ears old, was discovered by Vic
tor Herbert, and a bright future was pre
dicted for her. Heckler appeared In sev
eral , Broadway successes. He was 27
pears old.
The sound of the snots created excite
ment In the neighborhood, which Is one
of the best In the city. A large crowd
had gathered by the time an ambulanco

Polyclinic Hospital.
"The Princess Pat" company, ntter a
successful road trip which ended In this
dty Saturday, will open nt the Cort

Two months ago Peart Palmer was sing

"I'm losing Pearl'B love. She Isn't the
same as she was. She's successful and
ambitious and I think she Is forgetting

have her love I don't want to live."
This Is what Heckler told a friend In the
conservatory where tho oung woman

COUNCILS NOT CALLED
ON TO DECIDE LOAN
No Indications That Finance
Commitee Will Call Meeting
for This Purpose
No meeting of Councils' Finance Com
mittee has been called for the purpose of
deciding upon a permanent loan measure
to submit to Councils nnd there are no
Indications that such action will bo taken
In time to put n municipal loan measure
to u vote on November 2 Members of the
Finance Committee who Visited City Hall
today said that no meeting of the sub
committee would be held today and thnt
tho members probibly Would not get to
gether until later in the week
Ahy nrtlon of Councils looking toward
the passage of a loan bill would have to
take place this week, as next Monday Is
the limit of the four weeks' time for ad
vertising the Intention of Councils to In
ircao the Indebtedness of the clU.
That the question of a new permanent
loan will be Ignored at tills tlmo Is Indi
cated by tho failure of the Counctlmanlc
financiers to take any action, nnd It Is
generally believed by Councllmen not on
tho Finance Committeo that there will be
"nothing doing" in a permanent loan at
tho coming election.
The falluro of tho financiers to uU, in
the face of the Mayor's request for
tl.230.W0 loan for transit. Is taken to Indi
cate that his request will be entirely dis
regarded and overlooked.
Whllo the prospect for any permanent
loan vote In November grows slimmer
each day, there Is nothing to Indicate
that n loan may not be taken up at n
special election later In tho winter. The
coit of such special election would bo In
the neighborhood of (100,000.
Money must bo obtained by loan for the
many permanent municipal Improvements
now underway and also to meet the cost
of Und purchases along the Parkway.
If the Improvements nro to be continued
without Interruption, a loan Is Imperative
cither this fall or next spring. In the
opinion of those familiar with tho needs
of the city.
