MONDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1801.

 

She Was Rich and ‘fi’ell Educated, but
Gave Up All for u. Brakemun.
PITTSBURG, Dec. 21.——1\Iiss Maggie Conlon,
the nineteen-ycur—old daughter of a wealthy
’Kittanning wholesale grocer, was sent to
the Claremont workhouse for thirty days.

I for hurlinga brick through a burber shop

.window in this city.

About six months ago Maggie was gradu-
ated with high honors from a fashionable
school in Pittsburg, and in the next few
weeks disappeared from luvs-.5. Her parents
found her after she had tried to commit
suicide by jumping from the Forty—third
street bridge. While attending school she
rode from home daily on the Allegheny
Valley railroad. After a. long flirtation she
became infatuated with Peter Boyle, a
brakeman, who has a. family. He induced
her to come to Pittsburg and live with him,
and finally deserted her.

The girl’s parents took her home and for-
gave all. Somehow she again fell into Boyle’s
clutches and came back to Pittsburg with
him a few days ago. He again deserted her.
When she saw Boyle sitting in a barber
shop and was refused admission She hurled
a brick through the window. -

TIDI DID NOT APPEAR.

Neither Did the “‘oman to W'hom He
“'11:! to Be llInrricd.
NEW YORK, Dec. 21.——Congressman Tim

Campbell, who, it was reported from Wash-

ington, was to be married Saturday night
in this city, did. not put in an appearance.
Neither did the lady with whom it was said
Tim was to wed. A reporter of the United
Press called on Father McGinley, of St.
Rose’s church, to learn if the gallant con-
grcssman had been seen by the reverend
father. He had not. ‘

Father McGinley said, however, that ar-
rangements had been made by him to marry
Mr. Campbell but that the couple had not
yet appeared, and as it was then 10 o’clock
Father McGinley announced his intention
of going to bed. As the lights in the rectory
were put out as the reporter reached the
street, it is probable that Father McGinley
carried out his intention.

 

 

Believe Chief Bayes “his; 'Murdercd.

GUTHRIE, O. T.. Dec. 51,—A man coming
from the Cherokee nation says there is con-
siderable excitement in Talilequah over the
death of Chief Mayes and Assistant Chief
Chambers :1 week ago. There have been
suspicions from the first that there was
something mysterious about the death of
those high officials, and now it is openly as—
serted that they met with foul play. These
deaths give the control of the nation into
the hands of the opposition party, who will
eloctanew chief. Detectives are at work
trying to ferret out the mystery of the
deaths, and sensational developments are
looked for.

“’here the Bull Players “‘ill Go.

INDIANAPOLIS. Dec. 21.—President Young
and Solicitor Phelps completed the distribu-
tion of players, but it was decided not to
make the matter public. It has leaked out,
however, where many of the best players
will go. Murphy, of Boston, and Burke, of

iilwaukee, go to Cincinnati; Gleason goes
to Von dcrAhe and Russie will play with
the Giants; Louisville gets Cahavcn, Grim,
Brown and Browuing, and ‘Fal'l‘e‘li goes to
Pittsburg. The' Senators have secured
Richardson, Hoy, Duifee, Knell and Milli-
gan; Stivctts goes to Boston and Brouthers
to Brooklyn.

Depositors to Get 85 Per Cent.

TROY, N. Y.,. Dec. 21.——Justice Fursman
heard an a 7plication for an order allowing
the Ulster County Savings institution,'of
Kingston, now in the hands of 0. receiver,
to resume business on a basis of 85 per
cent. of the deposits. It is proposed to
resume at a loss to depositors of 15 per cent.
On the date of resumption 25 per cent. of
allaccounts will be paid, if depositors de-
sire. The bank will give interest at 3% per
cent. on all deposits remaining. Justice
Fursman said he would give his decision
this week.

Disappeared, So Did $23,000.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2L—Joseph Nathan,
local representative of Shotter & CO., of
Savannah, GIL, a large resin and turpentine
establishment, left the city ten days ago,
presumably for the City of Mexico and has
not been heard of since. An examination of
his accounts shows a. shortage of about $15,-
000, while it is said alocal bank is out 58,000
through his peculiar transactions. Nathan
was quite a swell, had a pug dog and spent
money with a lavish hand. '

 

Threw Bis Stepson Into the RiVer.

PATERSON, N. J ., Dec. 21,—John O’Con-
nor, of Keurny street, tossed his six-year-
old stepson from the Straight street bridge
Into the Passe-i0 river Saturday night.
O'Connor for some months past has shown
extreme dislike for the boy. Neighbors of
O’Connor who saw the occurrence rushed to
the lad’s assistance and succeeded in rescu-
ing him. The police are searching for O’Con-
nor, but up to a late hour had not succeeded
in capturing him.

Trouble Expected in Oklahoma.

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 21.—The wildest ex-
citement prevailed all night 'over Secretary
Noble’s decision giving 150 acres more to
the town sites. Thousands of people staked
lots and slept on the cold ground all night,
and in the morning 3,000 people were on
the ground. Five hundred negroes, many
of them armed, are jumping lots and steal-
ing fences, and unless they can be stopped
at once there will be shooting.

 

Ice Blocks Up the Hudson.

NEWBURG, N. Y., Dec. 21.——The navrga-
tion of the Hudson river between this city
and Albany is now practically closed for the
winter. The steamer M. Martin came
through from Albany Saturday, but en-
countered great difiiculty with the ice be-
tween that city and Hudson. The ice is only
from two to three inches thick, but was
piled up in Winrows quite badly.

A Youthful l‘rIurderer.

POTTSVILLE, Pa.., Dec. 21.—Hale Shaw,
aged eighteen years, fatally stabbed David
Quinn, aged twenty—two years. The two
became involved in a quarrel at the Knights
of Pythias fair and the stabbing was the
outcome. Quinn died within ten minutes
after receiving the stub. Shaw escaped, but
will probably be an'ested before morning.

MaJor MIcKinley Improving. -
CANTON, 0., Dec.,2l.—-Major McKinley is
much improved and is now on the road to
recovery. He is so much better that he was
able to take a drive in the City accompanied
by Mrs. McKidley and Clerk Bawsell.

The Bicycle Race Ended.
WORCESTER, Mass, Dec. 2L—The three—
day bicycle race here ended Saturday night.

MRS.- llllllllltll’S CASE.

Eminent Counsel Engaged to Ile-
opcn ll- if Possible.

WHY CONVICTION WAS HAD.

 

A Precedent Found W'hich May Qea‘d to
Another Trial —-'I‘he Letter Containing
Three Fatal \Vords—Guil Hamilton’s
Opinion as to Her Citizenship.

LoNDON, Dec. 21,—Counsel for the _ May-
brick case were selected at Lumley’s office,
namely Sir Charles Russell, Sir Henry J amen,
Mr. Poland and Mr. Alexander Macdougall.
A correspondent saw Mr. Macdougall, who
said: “The choice of counsel is remarkably
good. Russell and James are well known,
while Poland is the finest criminal lawyer in
England. In examining archives I found a.
valuable precedent for our course in a. case
Where a. verdict of guilty was rendered by
the crown and afterward was tried againin
court. It is the only instance known, but it
must have force as a precedent.

Her Conviction “’33 Wrong.
%“Russell is perfectly convinced that Mrs.
Maybrick’s conviction was entirely wrong.
He believes that Mr. Justice Stephen tried
to be honest in the case, but his own con-
viction of the woman’s guilt and a belief
that a. popular prejudice existed in her favor
influenced his charge. Russell says Stephen
passionately invited the jury to their ver-
dict and captured their minds, and that it
was a trial by judge and not a trial by jury.
The prosecuting counsel himself declared a
verdict of guilty to be impossible on the

evidence.
That Fatal Letter,

“Russell says that the one sole thing
which held the case together was the ‘sick
unto death’ letter.” '

Macdougall will remain in London during
the holidays working up the case in order

- to expedite progress.

MIRS. MAYBBICK’S CITIZENSHIP.

 

Gail Hamilton Thinks She Is an Ameri-
can—Legal Opinions on the Subject.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.—Gail Hamilton,

Whose efforts originated a movement for
the fund raised through a New York
paper for the employment of counsel to
endeavor to reopen the case of Mrs. May-
brick, has written a letter to The‘World in
which she says:

“I receive so many inquiries as to the pres—
ent condition of the Maybrick case that per—
haps you will permit me to reply through
your columns.

“The Baroness de Roques is in London, in
daily communication with Messrs. Lumley
& Lumley, solicitors, to whom has been
given the charge of her case. She reports
them as eager, earnest, intelligent men, who
are devoting themselves to the preparation
of the case, with all its strongest points, for
the opinion of counsel—in every particular
the men we want—America. wants—to press
bravely, eagerly and justly for recognition

of our appeal for justice.

“She has also secured the good offices of
Messrs. Cleavers, who were Mrs. Maybrick’s
solicitors in the first trial, and of Sir Charles
Russell, the eminent barrister who pleaded
her cause before Judge Stephens. As these
gentlemen are familiar with the facts, have
much valuable and pertinent information in
their possession and have their laurels yet
to win in tho Maybrick case, we may hope
for great advantage from their co-opera-
tion.

“Besides the sum originally sent to Mrs.
Maybrick’s mother to aid her in attempting

,t-o reopen the case, I hold $80.25 subject to

her order.

“The Baroness do Roques has been in-
formed that as a widow Mrs. Maybrick’s
English citizenship lapses and she resumes
her American nationality. This seems to
me a point of great importance, and, if
rightly taken, of great advantage. Iwish
your columns might give us legal opinions
upon it.”

Fuller Gains His Point.

NEW HAVEN, Dec. 21.—Notice has been
filed with Clerk Austen of the decision of
the supreme court in the case of the Metro-
politan Insurance company, of New York,
versus Austin B. Fuller, of this city. The
court dissolves the injunction on the de-
fendant restraining Fuller from prosecuting
claims for insurance money on policies
bought from insured people. This is a. vic-
tory for Fuller.

Long Fight for a. Small Purse.
PITTSBURG, Dec. 21.—Jerome Murray,
weighing 127 pounds, and James McGarvey,
145 pounds, fought fifty-four rounds, London
prize rules, with hard gloves, near Fairview,
Monongahela. county, W. Va. The fight
lasted one hour and twenty-one minutes. It
was a. slugging contest throughout. Murray
won. The principals were from Pittsburg.

The purse was $100. '

Heavy Penalty for Violating a. Law.

NEWARK, N. J ., Dec. 2] .——Che.rles Brown,

Order, was ordered by the court to pay to

ness in this state under a Massachusetts
charter.

Cameron Not Guilty.

CANANDAIGUA, N. Y., Dec. 21,—The evi-'

dance in the Cameron manslaughter case

citement was too much for Cameron’s nerves
and. he gave vent to his feelings by crying.

Buried Side by Side.
BROOKLYN, Dec. 21.—Michael Harvey, the
