In the BAZOO oil last evening appeared
the following paragraph:
Word was received by the police this morning
to 60 through the Missouri Pacific train from
Kansas CITY aud arrest a woman described A. fol-
lows: "Of small size large, good teeth well
dressed, with three 10 five rings Oh fingers; dark
hair, olive complexion Ii seems the m.ssage
was sent from n pawnbfoker IN Kansas City
whom the woman had robbed. The officers
searched the tram, but no one answering the de-
scripfion could be found.
No, she could not be found OH the train,
but at the time the officers were searching
for her she was comfortably quartercd but
a few yards distant. i'm room No. 81, at the
Garrison house. The woman, who
registered as Miss Addie Clements, Nam
sas City," had arrived i'm SedaIia on
the previous evening. and was met ut the
depot by old man Rollins, Of the Atlantic
house, who secured her patronage and she
accompanied him to his house. When
she alighted from the train she was
noticed particularly by Officers Carnes and
Movers, and the former made the remark
at the time that
THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG
there; ii We should get information that :,
woman is wanted, we'll know where to get
her." Accordingly, yesterday afternoon,
when Carnes and Movers learned Of the
word received from Kansas City in the
morning, asking for the detention OF q
woman, thev surmised ut once that it was
the party they had noticed so particularly
the evening before. Acting ON this suspi-
cion, they visited the Atlantic hOnse, only
to learn that the woman, who registered
there as Addie Hammond, had paid her
bill and gone they knew not where
The officers were at sea, but they
knew no such word as fail
without at least making an attempt to as
certain her whereabouts, and accordingly
all the hotels were visited, and at the Gar
rison house, about half-past 3 o'clock p.
m, was found registered
MISS ApDIE CLEMENTS.
Kansas City. Although nothing positive
was known, Officer Meyers 'tumblett" in
an instant that Miss Hammond and Miss
Clements we're identical, and the sequel
proves that he was correct. 4 cOnsulta-
ton was held among the blue coats, and it
was finally decided that an interview
should be obtained with the woman, Miss
Clements. Officer Meyers was deputized
for the purpose and he succeeded beyond
his fondest expectations. In response to
his rap upon the door Of No. II, he was
invited inside, and at once commenced the
work before him by saving that he was
looking for young lady who had left her
home and had called to see whether
SHE ANSWERED THE DESCRIPTION.
"Well," said Miss Clements. "dO I?''
ITO T." answered the officer.
At this stage of the proceedings Officer
Carnes came upon the scene, followed later
By Marshal Shy, at which Miss Clements
became uneasy and desired to know why
her room had been turned into police head
quarters. She was informed that she was
under arrest, on information furnished
by Jacob Blitz, of Kansas City.
The information did not surprise her in
the least. for she simply said: "You need
look no further; am the woman YOU
want" and As she uttered the words, she
gave way to tears,
REFUSING TO BE CoNFORTED.
She was Intercepted Is to what she had
lone, and replied. Nothing" She had
simply left Blitz, whose mistress she had
oeen. On arriving here she was short OF
money, and, in order to make a raise, had
pawned diamond ring given her BY
Blitz, worth 500, to Abe Cohn, for so.
She supposed, she said, that Blitz would
lain that she had stolen the ring from
him.
