Frozen to Death.

DENVER, Col, September 27.-Miss We'll
ton, of New York City, who was frozen to
death on Longs Peak Tuesday night, has
been spending the season in Colorado, and
was for the past week in Estes Park. On
Monday evening she went to Mr.. Lamb.
the guide on Longs Peak, and arranged foi
ascending the Peak Tuesday with Lambs
sou. Her ascent was made safely. While
coming down they encountered a fierce
snow storm and the lady was thoroughly
chilled. Lamb assisted her as well as he
could until after eight o'clock when hel
strength failed. He carried her half a
mile, then his strength gave out. The night
was very dark, and the trail rough and
rocky. He told her their only safety rested
i'll his going seven miles further to his
fathers house for aid. At ten o'clock he
left her alone and nearly frozen on the
bleak mountain. He returned with his
father at four in the morning only to find
Miss Welton dead. The remains were
brought to Longmont and will be sent to
New York. Miss Welton was highly cul.
tured, a great love of nature and very self
reliant. A heavy storm is reported from
LeadVille to-day.

Last Saturday night a mob of forty men
visited the Franklin County jail, overpow.
cred the jailer, took out four negro prison
ers and hanged them to trees in the court
mousse yard. One was charged with attempt
at rape on a white girl, two with the muir
der of other negroes and the other with
arson and robbery. There were four other
prisoners in the Jail at the time-one
charged with rape and the others with
arsoil-but they were unmolested. The
mob left word with the jaller that if the
Circuit Judge did not clear the Jail at the
present term they would return and make a
clean sweep. The affair is greatly depre-
Gated by a large majority of the citizens of
rankin County. This makes six men

Arrested for Holding Office Before
Becoming a Citizen.

BUFFALO, N. Y, September gin the
case of Michael Newell, Commissioner OF
Police, who is on trial for holding office
and voting without becoming a naturalized
citizen, Newell yesterday tried to put on
the prosecution the burden of proving he
came from Ireland at all, showing that there
was no record of his arrival at Castle
Garden. Newell's mother testified that he
was born in Ireland and came to this coun.
try when nearly four years old. He did
not come with her but with his grand,
mother, eight months later. She has since
remarked and her present husband has
been natulalized since marriage. The de-
fence claims his naturalization naturalizes
her ana all her children, even those by a
previous marriage. The case was sub.
United, the briefs to be handed in in ten
days. No evidence was given to show
Newells father was naturalized.

Arnold, Constable s. Co.'s Losses by q
Confidential Clerk.
New YORK, Sept. 26.-The examination
by expert accountants of the books of
Arnold, Constable & Co., the ~dry-goods
merchants, which was necessitated by the
discovery of irregularities on the part of
Henry c. Pedder, the confidential clerk
Of the firm, and Herbert Seymour, the
cashier, has been finished, and they
have reported a deficiency mount
ing to almost So, 600, 900. The greater
part of that enormous sum went into Mr..
Pedder's pockets, in the shape of hard cash.
He was in Europe when the discovery was
made that he was a defaulter. He was sum-
moned back, and on his arrival was arrest
ed. While he was still in the custody of a
Deputy Sheriff he decided all his property to
the firm, including his magnificent home in
Llewellyn Park, and the suburbs of Orange,
N. j., and his interest in the Manhattan
Magazine, which he helped to
His connection with the press ceased
after he had surrendered his property. Sey-
mour had previously been discharged, and
had set out for Europe. 1t was the unearth-
ing of minor frauds which led to the discov-
cry OF the bigger ones. 1t is admitted that
the property surrendered by Pedder and Sey-
mour covered but a very small portion of
their defalcations, but up to the present time
no effort has been made to prosecute
them either criminally or civilly. Mem
bers of the firm decline to. deny or af-
firm the truth of Pedder's enor-
nous stealing, because Richard Arnold
says it will do no good, and the less said the
better. A confidential employee said that
Pedder lived at the rate Of $50, 900 a year,
or three times his salary. Every evening
the receipts of the retail department were
brought to him. He would put a thousand
dollars or so into his pocket, according to
his needs or cupidity, and make false en-
tries in the books to conceal his dishonest
practices, Which went on for three wears.
