ELOPERS CAUGHT AT WACO
ANDY RoEMER AND MRS. scHAN.
They Leave MIR. sohan and the Babies M
New Braunfels but are Nipped bya
Detective-Sunday Law and
Other Waco Local Notes,

WACO, May II. Especially - On the
north-bound Missouri Pacific train last
evening, Andy Roemer and Mrs. Schan,
and 9year-old daughter Of Mrs
Schan were passengers. When the
train reached Waco, Roemer and Mrs
Schan were arrested by Van Hall, OF
Halls detective agency. The arrest
was based on a telegram received 10y
Hall from Detective II. o. Bales, AT
Austin. The couple are Germans, aud
il Ia supposed Roemer had stolen the
woman from her nus band, as she says
her, in New araunfeis. When
asked Why she left him sha
said he drank, and was so cruel 10 Nor
he could not live with him; also that
she left two other children
with him. The couole denied
they were clipping. Roemer says IL
was Mrs. Schsn's intention 20 come to
Waco, secure work aud live here. He
had known her for years and was
merely with her as her friend, to see
her comfortably located here. The con-
ductnr on the train says the couple got
aboard aJ Austin, and were hugginE arc
Kissing each other all the way to Waco,
10 which point they had tickets. Since
The arrest the wires have been down be-
tween here and Austin and not
a word has been heard from De-
tCctiye Bales, who ordered tho
arrest. The couple will be held
here by Halls agency until
Baues arrives. The woman says sine
han rather die than 60 back 10 her hus-
band, but appears otherwise uncou-
cerned. Roemer is decidedly uneasy in
his looks and actions, and was ipdiS-
nanC at the arrest.
The rain mentioned in last nights
dispatch was the heaviest for some time
and very general, The telegraph wires
were Frustrated in several directions
and on some routes are not working
vet. A washout on the Texas IL st.
Lo is road, cast OF Waco, delayed trains
on that road several hours. This rain is
of great value 20 crops, though.
Hon. w. w. Lang, consul TO Ham
burg, was in town to-day. He will sail
shortly for his post of duty, taking his
family with him.
For the second Sunday Waco has
obeyed the Sunday law. No violations
are reported and not n sire ct disturb
ance OF any kind, although few drunk
en men have been seen, who laid in
their supply of firewater yesterday. AS
on last Sunday, ice cream parlors, bar
Der and bath shops, fruit stores, cigar
stands, everything was closed, oven to
the boolblacks. People are wondering
if this state of things can hold out an
other Sunday, and there is beginning to
be- somechafing over what are called the
"puritanical features" of the law, in tor
bidding snch things as ice cream, soda
water, fruits, bathing, etc.
