George Cunliffc. the Adams Express
cmploye who disappeared from Pitta-
burg, Pip. with $100000, and woman

 

 

to Pittsburg with the detectives this}

morning. leaving lhia..clty at 5:08.
Cunlifrc seemed more lowgplriled to-
day than when he was first captured.
He explained this by saying that. ho
had hoped to arrange for lenient treat».
ment after reaching Plitsburg. by
trading his secret as to the where
abouts of the stolen money. Butjthe
fact that the detectives recovered 380,-
000 of the money inBristol. last oven-
inn. removed the prlaoncr's hope in
this respect. After being told by the
detectives of tho rocowry of thia'mon-
oy, Cunilftc said that he had burned
tho rest. of the amount stolen. about
$20,000, because the bills were all of
large denomination. and also on the
some bank, making It dangerous for
him to carry them about. .

The discovery of the shipment of
money to Bristol came about through
a local driver for the Adams Express
Company. who, after Cunliffe's arrest.
remembered that on October 13. he
was called to the Arlington Hotel.
where (iunIIfl‘c had a room. and was
given a dress suit case to be shipped
to Bristol. care of the Electric Ex-
press Company. The driver informed
the local manager of the Adams [the
press Company yesterday of this cir-
cumstance and detectives were at once
sont to llrlstol, where they located
this dress suit cake at the homo of a
relative of (luniilTo. Joseph W. lionrd-
man. it had not bot-n opened and con-
tained $80,000 in bills, together with
sonic clothing,

(lunlii‘fo. according to his own state-
mont, did not spend more than $150
during the ten days which intervened
between his departure from l’litsburg
and his arrest. His hotel expenses
wore small In this cly. the little back

$2.50 a week. As far as can he learn-

couldn’t not In.

“Who owned the house?" asked the
court.

“My wife. 1 gave It to her.“

your wife shut you out ?"

"Well. you see the house belonged

Grow Loapod Overboard as the
Vessel Went to Places on

- Lake Erie, and at Local Two
Worn OI‘IIWIIOIIwOIIIOI‘ Boots
Damaged

CLEVELAND, 0.. October 20.-—-Dur'
inn a fierce storm on Lake Erie early
to-day the steamer Sarah E. Sheldon
went ashore four miles east of Lorain.
She carried a. crew of 13 men. a num-
ber of whom lumped overboard when
the vessel began to go “to pieces. It Is
believed that at least two of the crew
were drowned. The Sheldon will be a
total wreck.

The steamer Wisconsin while loav-
ing the Lorain Harbor late last night
ran onto a partiiilly completed brealc
water confer a time the vessel was
threatened with destruction by the
heavy seas. Later she was pulled oil!
and it is now believed the boat has
not suffered great damage.

The big passenger steamer City of
Eric. which left Buffalo for Cleveland
last evening. arrived here this morning
two hours late. The boats ligurehead
was torn off. window. panes in the ca-
bins broke and many other evidences
shown of the heavy weather which she
had encountered outside. At the local
weather bureau oliice the wind regis-
tered a. velocity of seventy miles an
hour early today.

The steamer Sarah E. Sheldon was
loaded with coal for Detroit River and
left here last evening. She was caught
In a newly gale and it is thought be-
came unmanageable as a result of a
broken rudder. The boat finally struck
on the rocks four miles east of lmruin
and at once begun to go to pieces. The
Sheldon la a wooden venue] built, in
1875 and In owned by the M. A. Brad-
ley estate of this city.

A telephone message from Imraln
says the tug Kunkel Brothers succeed-
ed in getting alongside the steamer

 

cast of that port, for a moment this
morning. Fivu members of tho crew
jumped from. the deck of the Sheldon
to the tug. Defers the other men on
the steamer could make the leap. the

tremendous seas. The tug's captain

lilo airandod ‘blcamcr and‘pnt back
to “train and landed the men he had
rescued. The tag captain confirmed
the report that two members of 'the
crew of the Sheldon had lumped over-
board when the steamer struck. They
were provided with life proscrvera, but
were awopl out to sea and lost. The
steamer is now resting on a sandy bot-
tom and Is being pounded lorrlflcnlly

Hartford. He. finished up his work at
the farm of Mrs. Boomer. and in leav‘
lug carried a chain which he used as
a hang rope. He came from New

was thought at the time to be slightly
unbalanced mentally. Once during the
summer he came here and consulted
with a veterinary surgeon as to his
health. and on returning to the farm
told Mrs. Boomer that the doctor had
said he was crazy. The man made a
feeble. attempt at suicide about ten
days ago.

Mrs. Merill was alone yesterday-af-
ternoon and had gone into the barn
to look for a lion's nest. She saw the
body and thought ii tramp had gone

mail carrier. who passed by a little
later. logo in and tell the stranger to
get out. The carrier want In and on
approaching close saw that the body
was swinging. He turned and hurried
away. reporting the death bore. The
body was left in the barn until the
medical examiner made a visit today
and gave a verdict of suicide. The
lbwn authorities have no way of de-
termining the man‘s Identity. He was
thirty years old.
