A check found In the roan's clothing, made pay- able to J. P. Chalmers, was the first means of Identification. A telegram was sent Im- mediately to the parents of Mr. Chalmers, who reside on his farm In Connecticut. When the terrible news became known around the convention, the vaudeville and moving pic turo performance scheduled for TucRilav even- ing, nt the National Cash Register Hall, was called off bv the film manufacturers, but was attended bv the exhibitors, as alt arrange- ments had been completed. Mr. Chalmers was extremely popular, and his loss will be greatly regretted by thou- sands of people who knew him. A heavy gloom was cast over the large gathering at the Algonquin Hotel, as they discussed the only feature to mar the convention. The stdry of the' msnner In which Mr. Chalmers met his death conflicts considerably in deMl, as no one actually saw the accident, but the general theory Is that he opened the glass dohr of the freight elevator shsft. mistaking it for" an entrance to the convention hall, and fell to his death, as above stated.
