Romantic Career.

A Gang Of Hotel Thieves Discovered-A
Romantic Career.
CHICAGO, March 13.-A few days ago
the police were notified that a detective
was wanted at a house on the north side.
Officers went there and ina miserable ten
ement found a woman Of apparently re
fined and cultured nature, who told them
a strange story. She explained that there
existed an organization amongst certain
hotel employees which made a business Of
systematically robbing hotels and their
guests. She gave the name Of the man
with whom she was living, Frank En-
nett, as one Of the gang. The police
found him to be a trusted Waterman at
the sherman house. He and other em-
ployes of that hotel haye been arrested
and steps are being taken to hunt down
the thieves In the other large hotels here
which include both male and female help.
Several wagon loads of goods have been
received from various places, including
all the classes Of hotel linen, tableware,
guests clothes, etc. The woman who
gave the first information TO the police
gave the name of Mrs. James w. Muir
ray and tells a romantic story Of her life.
Her maiden name, she claims, was Kerns
and she was the daughter of a one time
lord mayor of Dublin. She was educated
In the finest manner abroad and her moth
er and several sisters are living nov in
England. She was married in 1859 to
Jas. w. Murray, then a wealthy shoe deal
er in Limerick. In the second year of
their marriage they anne to Philadelphia
where he Is now d member of a large
manufacturing firm. They did not get
along well together and she Left him, after
which he procured a divorce on the
grounds of desertion. During q long per
fod Of illness in New York she was be-
friended by Emmett who was her only
friend and since her recovery she has
been living with him. She would have
married him but for the fact that as Q
Catholic she Is still the wife of Murray.

trated at Goal hin, Ark.
ST. LOUIS, March 13.-Last Tuesday and
"Wednesday the coroners jury began an
investigation at Coal Hill, Ark, Of the
case Of the death Of a convict, one Chas,
Williams. Warden Gafford hindered the
investigation in every way in his power,
but the facts showed such horrible brutal
ity that he sought safety in fight. Pun
ishment was the cause of Williams death.
The shoulders Of the convict had been
completely stripped Of its cuticle by the
deadly lash. The skull near the right
temple was fractured, the result it is sup
posed of a kick. The right side OF the
body contained a series of bruises, being
the imprint of boots. Witnesses testified
that about a week ago Gafford permitted
two negro convicts, Nose Harvey and
Marsh Bailey, to engage in a desperate
fight. The result is too shocking to admit
of description. Another case of brutal
treatment was that of Nose Elder, a white
convict, who recently died at the camp.
His body was exhumed and on examlna-
ton revealed thirty-eight horrible wounds.
There are ten or twelve new graves in the
camp yard and no one seems 70 know
anything about the matter as no inquests
were held on the bodies buried there.
Gov. Hughes has offered a reward for the
capture and arrest of Warden Gafford.

Subject worthy Attention.
WAsHINGToN, March Ex-senator
Chandler, chairman Of the committee on
Indian affairs, has transmitted a letter to
the secretary Of the interior enclosing a
draft of the resolutions adopted by the
committee, asking that the s~ecretary's at
tention be especially called to the testi
mony showing that extensive numbering
operations are now being carried on in
the Chippewa reservation, under contracts
net yet approved BY the commissioner Of
Indian affairs, BY large gangs Of lumber
men who are Iiot Indians, and suggesting
to the secretary that it is advisable that
orders should be given by telegraph ina
mediately that the cutting down of any
more trees must be stopped until further
orders from the department. 1t appears
from evidence, says the senator, that none
Of these timber contracts have been al
proved by the commissioner, but have
gone into operation nevertheless with the
result that d plan originally devised to
benefit the Indians has been perverted
into a system under which greedy con
tractors have rushed upon the reservations
and denuded them Of their timber. Sena-
tor Chandler says further that unless tie
testimony taken can be shown 70 be err
