ALLEGED PENSION FRAUD.
Mrs. Fox and Representative Wilson
Placed Under Arrest.

Placed Under Arrest.
Deputy U. S. Marshal Conway went TO Shell
byvlle Monday and arrested Lee Wilson and
Mrs Jane Fox on the charge Of conspiracy to
defraud the government The allegation Is
that Mrs. Fox, who was soldiers widow. and
drawing n pension, was married which, ac-
cording 10 the law, stopped her pension money.
Then she was divorced from her second hus-
band, and tried to have her pension renewed
and for the purpose OF assisting her in this in.
tention II is alleged that Mr.. Wilson made an
affidavit to tho effect that the woman was
never married second time and that her chill
oren by the second husband we're illegitimate.
The arrest created n great sensation on
account Of the prominence OF Mr.. Wilson, he
being representative In the legislature, and
man OF great prominence in his county.
The name OF Mrs. Fox's first husband was
Snyder. He died soon after the war, and she
drew a pension until 1870 when she married
Daniel Fox, by whom she had three children
before they separated. Dir. Wilson, II is
claimed, went before the circuit court and
testified that the marriage with Cox never
actually occurred. As a result OF this affidavit,
Mrs Fox has since drawn s 200 pension money.
Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Fox were brought to
this city late yesterday afternoon. They
waived preliminary hearing, and we're bound
over 10 court In 81 900 bail each, which they
furnished aud were released.
IL will be observed that in drawing pension
under the circumstances charged, Mrs. Fox
has been doing nothing more than Corporal
Tanner advised in his recent Milwaukee speech.
The corporal said that a soldiers widow should
keep on drawing pension whether or not she
remarked.
The Hon. Leon Bailey. attorney for Mr.. Will
son, says his clients conduct was in every way
legal. After Mrs. Fox had secured a divorce
the case was reopened and the second marriage

urday morning workmen, while digging gas
trenches, found the remains of woman at
depth of two feet below the surface. When
discovered the body was in a sitting posture,
occupying space three feet long and two feet
wide. The head had been severed from the
body, which clearly proves that it was q case of
murder. The lower limbs were bent inward,
and the body had been forced 10 one side, and
in that position buried. The coroner examined
the remains and pronounced them to be those
years of age. The skull was well developed,
and indicated person of intelligence. \ full
complement of teeth, remarkably we'll pre-
served, was imbedded in the jaws. The skele-
ton was perfect one. The length of time the
remains have been lying there is indefinite.
The spot where the skeleton was unearthed is a
secluded one and more convenient place for
