RICHARD K. FOX IN NEW LIGHT.
That very enterprising publtber Of the
| National P6tes Gaztue, Richard K. Fox. is
apt 10 be placed before the pubic in new
| light. In spite of his ipnuen1 with the
press of this city, the Sun has Brought be-
fore the public, in a modified form. his nm
Dlededub tIOuOlcHs LIS Vile, Mrs.
Annie X. Fox, is 10 be brought helore the
Supreme Court upon a writ q kobeas
corpus. She claims that she il ille-
gaIIy detained in the Lo1z Island
Home for Insane at Amityfile. be-
cause she began a suit for divers against
her husband, and that her incarcefllion was
to prevent her from proceed ne further ia the
IN atter. The cause OF the trouble lies in the
fascination that the late mistress Of he late
priz. fighter, John Dryer, exercise over
Richard X. Fox. This woman, while not
handsome, possesses some ATTRACTIONS Her
first interview with Fox was in relation
to his using his influence 70 OBJ
tain a benefit for herself and sou,
claiming that Dryer, al his death tsoyea
ago, had left her destitute. DTyers brother,
who is an alderman of the city OF Bsooklyn,
interfered, and proclaimed the woman an
adventures. Now she dresses richly, her
fingers are ablszs with flashing dismonds,
and she can be seen everywhere In the
company of Fox. At Coney LELAND last
summer she was constantly in the COM
pany of Richard K. Fox, who seemed proud
Of his conquest. Fortunately the P0tz Ga
zeue is a gold mine, and the sensational vol
umes that are published weekly, return q
priucely fortune. How much the women siii
manage to obtain can only be imagined In
the meantime Fox has the credit OF keeping
his fimily in luxury. His children have
every thing they desire, and no pains is spared
by their father to give them every educz.
tional advantage.
