 There are a great many romances con. nected with the numberless claims thai turn up here.

Colonel Reed, Major Reed, Cap. tain Reed, Commodore Reed, or perhaps it is simply plain Mir. Reed. Anyhow he once lived in St. Louis. He has a nose sadly out of joint and is not hand some man, but is persistent He had . claim arising out of some naval affair, which he came here to urge upon con- gress for twenty years or more. He came to Washington every winter. He actu- ally lived on the prospect of collecting that claim He would not be put of by denial or threat. He finally came here to live camped, as it were, on the ground. He beset the senate committee on q sims like troubled dream. He materialized every morning in the midst Of the com mitteemen when they assembled in their room at the capitol He always came up smiling. The time arrived when the matter became one Of seif-preservation on the part of the senators, rand they allowed his claim in order to get d oi him. He collected S4o 900 from the gov ernment People used to langh and say he would never get a cent. Nevertheless he did quite we'll Bnt what he made in twenty years he lost in day.

circulated about town, just before dark
yesterday evening. For a time II seemed,
too, that the facts justified the terrible
report, The two men got into q dispute
near the Mound City hotel, which ended
in Davis striking Cox astunning, blow in
the face with his fist, knocking him down
and senseless, followedfby two or three
blows about the. head and face and several
kicks In the side or breast. Doctor Hall
and Mr.. McFadden came up at this
moment, and upon examining theinjufed

into Dr.. Davis, drug store, where he re-

withstanding every effort to resuscitate
him was resorted to. After being taken
u. his home he was attacked by severe
vomiting, which would seem 10 Indicate
internal injury. From what the writer
can learn Of Cox's present condition no
serious injury is thought likely to result
from the beating. A brother Of the in.

was placed in the hands Of Policeman

BUFFALO, March n.-The wife Of Dea-

brought him good fortune, as she has been
acknowledged by the Court OF the Queens
Bench as the heiress TO the Lawrence
Townley estate in England, valued at
500. .OOO, 900, her part being $40,0O0,0OO
Lord Townley, before the opening OF
the present century, was the parent OF
a williul daughter, Mary, who was dis
owned for engaging herself to John Law
renee, q man Of good family but poor.
They came TO America, and were married
by priest at Springfield, Mass. Lord
Townley died, and his family was extinct
save the daughter, and for half century
the property was held by law. Colonel
James Jacques, at the close Of the war,
went to Springfield as minister, and
there discovered the record OF the Town
ley.Lawrence marriage. Knowing OF the
estate in England he traced the heirs to
Gowanda, and there found Mrs. Brown,
who was the daughter OF Judge NHilders.
Colonel Jacques was sent to England,
where he got a decision that his claim was
valid, and last week by giving two mem.
bers Of the House OF Lords an interest
they procured transfer OF the proceeds
Of the estate to the United States Treas
ury. Colonel Jacques claims that the
money will be transferred within month

ers. l1'a'n
This afternoon was one Of the stated
times Of meeting. Family Bibles were
produced by old women with corkscrew
curls and speetaeles; old deeds were OK.
amined degrees Of relationship to the
lamented Anneke were discussed, and Il
was finally decided that at present there

who kindly consented to explain the pro.
ceedings, what will be the loaves and

The old man then explained that the
corporation OF Trinity Church, according
to the calculations OF the heirs, holds
property worth 5000, ,000, 900, al. Of
which property belongs TO the long.su fer

PARIS, March 1l.3.Kate," the woman
implicated in the dynamite outrages, left
last night for Lima. Since the London ex.
plosions she has been living quietly and
miserably in hotel near the Madeleine.
She is woman Of about 80, with delicate
features, worn and jagged by night yigils
and anxiety. She dresses rather showily.
She is respectfully connected, and her real
name is Mrs. Moran. After refusing in
terviews to several English papers she was
pursuaded to say few words to reporter,
"You are generally fair and square,"
said she, "and though ought, perhaps, to
consult some friend before speaking, I will
answer any reasonable blequestions."
"kate then declared that though a yiol.
ent hatef Of English misrule, she means
TO sever her connection with dynamite
schemes. She considers that She has
served her time as dynamiter faithfully:
but has very little remuneration to show
for her dangerous work. II don't acknowl-
edge that have had any hand in any ex.
ploston, said she. "You NAV make what
gnesses you like about that, but I am Ger.

will result TO Ireland from explosions, but

Being further pressed, "Katen said that
she disapproved OF 0fDonoyan Rossa's
Dragging. She also remarked that she
thought II would be more dignified to
blow up places like the Tower orthe House
OF Parliament, "nor am the only one Of
