MATTE RoDABAUGH's DEATH.

SENSATIONAL RESULTS OF her RELATION WITH
LAWSON BALDWIN.
Special Telegram to The BEE,
FAIRFIELD, Ia, July 15. - Considerable
commotion was occasioned here to-day by the
appearance Of Van Buren, county officials, who
were in pursuit OF Lawson Baldwin, of that
county. The story OF the crime, rs related to
BEE representative. was of most revolving
character and savored strongly of murder. It
appears that Baldwin, resident of Birming-
ham, has been in intimate connection with
woman of that place, Miss Matte Rodabsugh,
for the past eight or nine years, and during
that period she has been in delicate condi.
ton three or four times through Bald
was performed. The last instance
which duplicates Fairfield physician, proved
fatal and thence the trouble. Miss Roda.
baugh came here about three weeks ago and
was engaged,as o domestic at Mrs. Culberson's, 3,
a sister of Baldwin, where he had frequent
opportunities to visit her. During her stay
with Mrs. Culberson she was taken violently
sick and DIR. Miliigan was summoned. He
was very secret in his treatment. After q
weeks illness here the patient was renewed to
her fathers residence in Birmingham, where
she fingered until Wednesday when she died
and was buried on Friday-a week ago. Sus-
picion was aroused that all was not right and
a warrant was issued for Baldwin's arrest, but
up to Wednesday he had not been appre.
hended, although he was known to have been
concealed here until Thursday night when
he secured $500, by mortgaging his fine farm,
which is now understood to be in possession
of his father, and made his escape. The Off
GERS employed in this case have displayed no
very great talent, and have easily been duped
by Stacy Baldwin, the fugitive's father.
The families connected with this sad affair
are prosperous farmers. Baldwin is a bachelor
of 80 years, and the deceased girl was 23
gears of age. Should Baldwin be captured
and taken to Birmingham for preliminary
trial he might be lynched, as the citizens there
are considerably incensed at the course he has
been pursuing there for years, The victim
made an ante-mortem statement to hel
parents and the two attending physicians
charging Baldwin and DIR. Milligan with
being the cause of her death. Milligan can be
secured at any time. A post-mortem exam
ination was made yesterday by the coroner.
