what Came ef Asosy nous Letters
Accusing = wife Of Infidslity.

A Virginia City scandal eliminated in
an ARRAY Saturday night about Z o'clock.
Some three months since q Mr.. Har.
vey married q neics OF W. b. Ryan, OF
the well known restaurant, 1914 South @
street. Since the marriage, some one,
evidently on mischief bent, has been
sending the husband anonymous letters,
accusing his wife OF unfaithfulness, etc.
These letters the husband declares have
been sent by Ryan. What gives some
color to this charge Of Mr.. Harvey Is the
fact that not long since Mr.. Ryan was
arrested for an indecent assault on the
girl. The case was compromised with.
ont the consent Of the prosecuting wit.
ness and Mr.. Ryan compensated Tor the
costs. Mr.. Ryan Is also said to have
accused the wife OF infidelity with m
individual who kept company with her
before she wal married. but this person
is ready TO swear her clear Of this charge.
The whole affair was therefore boil.
ing hot when Mr.. Harvey. accompa-
MED by his brother.in.law called on Mr..
Ryan Saturday evening. Words then
and there added fuel to the flame, and
Mr. Ryan struck twice at Harvey's
friend. This friend then struck MIR.
Ryan on the nose. knocking him over
Just in time to escape q bullet from
Harvey's pistol. the said bullet burying
itself In the wall Of the building, instead
Of in the body Of Ryan.
Mr.. Harvey. after the above occur.
ence. went to the Sherifrs Office aud
surrendered himself. but was imms.
diaiely released on bail. Captain j.. s.

coming his surety. 1t Is probable that q
judicial investigation will alone elicit
the whole truth Of this attempt Of some
one to separate man and vito.
