A st. Paul Lawyer Suddenly DisIp.
pears From the City.
Various inquiries for James P. Holmes.
attorney at law, yesterday brought out the
reply: "He has skipped" This opened up
a prospect for mild sensation, although
subsequent investigation in the legal circles
didn't seem to bring to the surface much
surprise or perturbation, AS near as could
be learned Mr.. Holmes dropped out of
sight about five days ago, he having a few
days prior to that severed business connec-
tons with his law partner, S. G. l.. Rob-
ertS. Mr.. Holmes was an educated gentle
man, and, although his professional breth-
ern lay no special stress on his legal ability,
they speak OF him as a rustler, and a man
of untiring energy and almost inexhausti-
bic versatility.
''He could make money, but he couldn't
keep it, remarked one of his acquaintance
to the reporter. Several months ago a
house was burglarized on the hill and a
man arrested for the burglary. Mr.. Holmes
identified himself with the interests of the
prisoner and defended him i'll the courts.
and after the trial married the principal
witness for the state. For this the legal
profession severely censured him, but
was WIZ luOuSuG d SOUu
deal of his own opinion, and paid no atten-
ton to his critics. Late last summer he
purchased the stock and fixtures of the
Criterion restaurant on East Seventh street,
and by his energy succeeded IN building up
paying business that enabled him to dis
pose Of it at a good profit. The cause of
Holmes sudden departure is said to
be financial embarrassment. 1t was
reported yesterday that Joseph Mackey of
the First National bank held note against
him for $500, which came due in a few
days. and other sums of Indebtedness are
mentioned. One report is to the effect that
he had collected 500 and failed to account
for it to his employers. This, however, is
not known to be fact Mr.. Holmes resi-
dence is deserted. he having taken his wife
and her sister with him. The furniture in
his house. it is said, was heavily mortgaged.
Where he has gone is mystery.

A Kew Era

Has dawned in the history of the gents fur

Torrance showed her some OF his imported
Scotch and some heavy-ribbed knit goods,
and when she heard the price, and said she

A Withdrawal.

At the special term of the district court
yesterday the libel suit of Matt Clark
against the Minneapolis Tribune came up
on motion of the defendant for change
of venue from Ramsey to Washington
county. An affidavit was submitted by the
defendants counsel stating that twenty
two of the prominent citizens of Saltwater
would give evidence sustaining the charges
made by the paper. In rebuttal the attor-
ney for the plaintiff produced affidavits
from a number of the citizens mentioned in
the defendants affidavit stating that they
would do nothing of the kind. The attor-
ney for the Tribune then asked leave to
withdraw the motion, which was granted
without prejudice upon payment of costs.
Another motion of similar nature will be
made at an early date.
