SICK AT THE HOTEL.
Miss frankie Bishop, Of Atkin-
sons Comedy Company, De-
serted in This City.

Atkinson's comedy company which
played "Peck's Bad Boy" in this city Sat.
erday night brought TO this city one of its
members, Miss frankie Bishop, sick. Al
the matinee and at night others of the
company were substituted for her In the
part of "Henry," excuses being made by
the manager, Dir. Mcpherson, for her non
appearance. Yesterday morning Mr.. Nc
Pherson thought she was able TO get mp
and travel with the company to Boonville,
where they showed last night, but the at
tending physician, DIR. Scott, would not
listen TO it, saying the trip might result
fatally to her,
The baggage was put in the cars and the
company got aboard the train, leaving
Miss frankie at the Garrison house. This
incensed one of the company, Mr.
Geo. James, and he said he would not see
the young lady left in a strange place
without friends. He accordingly had his
baggage taken of the train and declared his
intention OF remaining and looking after
the welfare of Miss Bishop, The msnager
then came up town and tried To- have a
writ OF attachment served on Mr.. James
claiming that he had overirawn his ac-
count. He was informed that he would
have to give bond and deposit ten dollars
for costs, on account of being stranger in
the city. He was not willing to do this,
and so the matter rests, the company GO
ing to Boonyille and leaving Mr.. James
and Miss Bishop in this city.
Miss Bishops parents in New York have
been autographed the stale of affairs, and
aid is hourly expected. Her condition is
quite serious.

SERIOUS CHARGE.
The Camp Branch Baptist
Minister Arrested on the
Charge of Rape.
The jackson County Sheriff Elk
pected This Morning in Quest
Of His Man.

The Baptist minister at Camp Branch
was arrested yesterday evening in obedi-
ence to a telegram received by Marshal
Shy from Sheriff Murphy, of Kansas City,
stating that the minister, Isaac III. Haley
was wanted at that place for rape.
The crime for which Haley was arrested
was committed in the early part of last
October. At that time a man, alleged to
have been Haley, was arrested but was
subsequently discharged, and the matter,
for the time being, was dropped.
The matter was recently revived and
Rev. j. NJ. Plannett, of the East Sedslia
Baptist church, received a communication
from Kansas City asking if Haley was here.
He answered by saying that he was not
here but that he was not lar awav. Mar
shall Shy yesterday received the telegram
mentioned above and at once proceeded 10
find his man. He had been in the city in
the afternoon, but said he was going to the
country and got into a wagon, ostensively
for that purpose. He did not 60, however,
but rode only a short distance and then got
out and walked to East Sedalia.
The marshal then telegraphed to Kansas
City that Haley had gone into the coun-
try, but that he could be arrested in. the
morning. In answer he received tele-
gram asking him TO arrest the man, and
saving that the sheriff would be down
after him at 10:45 last night. Learning
that ne was In East Sedalia, Officer Nc
Pherson went there and arrested him.
The sheriff did not arrive last night, but
he is expected this morning The case
is queer one, and the true state OF affairs
are very hard to get.
Haley is young man OF rather prepos
sessing appearance. He has been married
abont five months. He and bis wife reside
at Camp Branch. He was interviewed by
a BAzoo reporter in his cell last night
but nothing of Importance was learned.
Fuller particulars will be published as the
case progresses.
James Isaac Haley, an account of whose
arrest and incarceration for attempted rape
in Kansas City was published in the BAzOo
yesterday morning, was taken to Kansas
City last evening. He is a man about 80
years old, very tall and broadshouldered,
small steel-gray eyes, and prominent nose
and chin, and the weeks growth of brown
beard on his face gave him the appearance
of a man well used TO the ways of the
world.
AS stated in yesterdays published &C
count he was arrested by Marshal Shy on
a telegram coming from the authorities at
Kansas City, his arrest reported to them,
and he locked up awaiting their appear
ance. A reporter called at the calaboose
yesterday morning, and found the grated
door of his cell curtained with newspapers
and his overcoat. Thrusting aside the paper,
the reporter attempted to engage him in
conversation, but ne would not, saying he
had nothing new to offer.
At 1920 Mr.. W. III. Keshlear, deputy
marshal of Jackson county, arrived and
was met by Marshal Shy, who conducted
him 10 the calaboose. Mr.. Keshlear told
Haley he had come TO take him back to

Kansas City, to stand trial for an attempt
TO rape q 17-year-old girl near Wyandoite
Haley replied that he was ready and will
ing TO return.
From Mr.. Keshlear il was learned that
the attempt was made in October last
Haley, while drunk on the street, met the
girl, and overheard her request
to be shown a certain house in Kan
sss City, the number of which she had ON
a written slip In her hand. H volunteered
his services in showing her the place, at
the same time calling a hack. Entering
the carriage they were driven 10 a notori-
Gus assignation house, and were furnished
a room on the second floor. Before they
had been In the room many minutes the
girl discovered her mistake and claims
10 have made a great cutlery. AT any rate
the hackdriver suspecling that the actions
of his late employer were not intended
for the moral good of the
girl, called a policeman and took
him upstairs. They found Haley strug-
CLING with the girl in the attempt to com.
nit the beastly deed. and he was at once
arrested
The grand jury indicted him for attempt
ing 10 ravish, and at the following term Of
court he was arraigned for trial. Owing to
a misunderstanding of dates on the SUBJ
pena the prosecuting witness failed 10 APP
pear and he was released and soon left
town. The next day the girl appeared,
and upon search for Haley he was not

Until within the last few days his where
abouts were not known TO the Jackson
county authorities. But when they tele-
graphed TO Marshal Shy, the arrest imme-
diaiely followed
Haley claims 10 be Baptist minister,
and has been preaching in the country

married but a short time, and yesterday,
his wife, who is a modest, we'll behaved

home in The country, and spent a few
minutes with him In his cell,
walking by his side when he
was taken to the depot. At parting

tears excited the sympathy of all behold.
ers. She SAYS she knew nothing of
Haley's misdoings before she married him,
but will stand by him now that she is his
wife, and will aid his release in every pos
sible way
Marshal Keshlear, of Jackson county,
expressed the opinion that Ha-
ley's chances for escaping term in prison
were very slim. he Haley having but a
slight defense TO make. 1t is easy TO prove
that he was drunk all the day he made the
assault, and then going to preach the Cos
pei, will prejudice the jury against him
His trial will take place at the next term
of the criminal court of Jackson county,
which begins on the fourth Monday in
May. An effort will be made by his friends
to get him out on bail, but the marshal
thinks it will be unsuccessful.
