THE BOTTOM FELL OUT
Of the ST. Peter Asylum Tnvestiga-
ton and 1t Ends in Smoke.

Of the St. Peter Asylum Tnvestiga-
ton and 1t Ends in Smoke.
There is nothing it it. Miss Ella Cur
tiSs was not Wrongfully incarcerated in
st. Peters asylum, nor was she i'm
properly treated by the wealthy Mime
apOliS gentleman; and the newspaper
vaporing is all moonshine. When Rev.
s. D. Kemerer, of Ortonville, comes to
inquire little deeper into the grave
charges he allowed to be made public,
the conclusion he is forced to is: THAT
Miss CurtisS was insane, and George E.
CurtiSS was very much mistaken and
have been greatly fooled"
This is the only conclusion which in
telligent people could arrive at. The
story, as originally published. stamped
it's own character. They are very be-
nighted people indeed who could be led
to believe that no less than half dozen
public servants could be bribed to con-
nive at the false Imprisonment of sane
person. And yet that, reduced of all
heroics, is what the Curtiss-Kemerer
cargeS amounted to.
Secretary Hart takes exception to yes
terday's article, anent his conduct of
the investigation in this case. Mr.. Hart
WOulU nave visited NflOHNlllo W0QHeS-
day had not the Rev. S. d. Kemerer
wired he had forwarded all documents
required. The reason why Mr.. Hart
had not previously visited Mr.. Kemerer
or Mr.. Curtiss was that he was acting
under instructions of members of the
board of corrections and charities. He
is not at all responsible for any delay
which has occurred in the inveStl cation
of the charges.
The official communication of Mr..
Kemerer to Mr.. Hart is as follows:
In conversation with George E. Curtis and
his daughter Ella yesterday find that he
has become satisfied that his theory with ref
erence to the abduction of his daughter by
prominent citizen of Minneapolis is errone-
Gus, and therefore all suspicious with or col
Peter hospital with the said citizen are
groundless
His change Of opinion was induced by the
changed attitude of his daughter on the
Frightening of her mental faculties.
With reference 10 the prominent parties
implicated in the charge which she previous
ly joined, she positively exonerates them
from all blame whatever. She further ad-
mits that she was doubtless insane, and that
her commitment and treatment was just and
proper.
say that all parties, both public and private,
connected with the treatment and care of
Miss Ella Curtiss did their duty conscientious
ly and faithfully, as numerous letters in my
possession will show.
Under these circumstances, request for
Mr.. Curtiss, that all complaint be recalled
and the case be dismissed.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The first presentation of ''ll Trova-
tore" at the Harris theater last night,
was delightful surprise to the many
patrons Of that rejuvenated temple of
amusement. Verdi's great creation
was put on in very acceptable style, and
the solo parts were sustained in
most satisfactory way. The LeOnora
of Miss Verena was both sung and
played beautifully, and, difficult as the
solo is, she acquitted herself most cred
ltably. Sig. Tagliapectra. as Count de
Luna, Frank Baster, as Maurice, and
Miss Bouer as Azueena, carried the
grand opera along in a style that won
constant applause and repeated
encores. The more difficult sit
uations were the best presented.
and the innumerable duoS with which
the opera abounds were recalled in
nearly every instance. al Trovatore"
will be sung tonight and tomorrow
night, with "Faust'' for the Saturday
matinee by special request.
Seats will go on for sale this morning

WEATHER FROM WAY BACK.
Frost in August When Red Wing
Was on Top.


"The WarmeSt month in 1883 was
July, and July II was the banner hot
day." remarked weather crank at the
central police station late last night.
"This year we are getting it in Aug
ust," he continued, "but we are prom
ised relief sOon."
"That reminds me-" spoke up Officer
Zirkelbach, "of a circumstance in 1868
Il think August 26 was the exact date.
l had taken a steamboat for Red Wing,
and when I arrived there on the Goth,
day was just dawning, and the whole
face of the earth was white with a
heavy frost. 1t killed vegetation you

didn't make times hard. Not much.
There were no railroads, and Red
Wing was one of the business centers of
the universe. l have climbed upon the
top of string of wagons and walked
four blocks without getting down. The
Red Wing elevators used to
spend 100000 day in cash
for wheat. They always gave a
half cent more than Hastings, and that
was enough to draw the tide of traffic
from Hastings. You know, a farmer
always goes where he can get the best
price. There was one firm in Red Wing
thot l happen to remember, Frederick
Kemp & Co. They did business of
about $4,000 day. They would give
away four OF five caddies of plug tobac-
co daily. The Milwaukee wheat corner
swamped them eventually, however.
They wanted to get rich too rapidly. 1

THE WILLOUGHBY CASE.
After Identifying the Obscene
Letter the Case Is Continued.


Letter the Case Is Continued.
Mrs. Mil lie Willoughby, who is
enlarged with sending obscene letters
through the mails to her mother-in-law,
had hearing yesterday in Commission
er McCaferty's court. Mrs. Willoughby
was ill, and had to be brought from her
residence in a carriage. In court she
acted nervously. The obscene letter
of which she is the alleged author, was
first introduced as evidence. The letter
is totally unfit for publication, scarcely
line of it being without several vile
epithets. The mailcarrier who deliv-
cred the letter was the first witness. He
merely identified the envelope. Miss
Fowler. who lives with Mother-in-law
W1loughby,, testified that she received,
opened and read the letter. D, A.
Monfort, cashier OF the Second
National bank, thought the letter
was in. the handwriting of Mrs.
'Willoughby. Cy Wellington, who
appeared for the defense, held
that an obscene letter, if sealed, could
be sent through the mails without vio-
lating the law. but Commissioner Nc
Catferty thought differently. The hear
ing was continued to this morning, and
Mrs. Willoughby gave bail in the sum
of 81, ZOO. Her husband, John III. Will
loughby, and P. O'Regan signed the
bond,

THE COUNTS HARD FATE.
Probability That the Ramsey Bar
Will Move in His Behalf.

The removal of Count Phillip de
) Rochebrune to the county poorhouse
was one of the leading topics of CONVEX
7sation among the lawyers of st. Paul
yesterday. The opinion seemed to pre-
vail that the bar association ought to
take some action regarding the matter,
as the count was one of the Oldest men,
bers, and had never been disbarred.
The count is Seventy-tWO years old. and
has practiced law in this city for thirty
five years. He halls from Plttsburg,
Pa. He had his law Office at No. rs
West Seventh street, from which
place the superintendent OF
the poor farm yesterday re-
moved the counts library, which in
cludes quite large number of law
books and varied collection OF stand
ard literary works. A complete set OF
Dickens novels was noticed in one of
by the count for making the change of
residence was feeble health and the de-
pletion of his estate. AS far as has
developed his sole assets are gold
watch, pair Of crutches and TWO out
lots worth $500, and mortgaged for 500.
Mr.. " right, who escorted him to the
farm, once paid him s2,250 for two lots
on Chestnut street. At one time
he owned valuable piece of ground at
the corner of Western and Dayton ave-
nues, and 100 acres ON the west side of
the Mississippi river, located about half
way between the Smith avenue bridge
and Mendoza. The last-named tract is
now valued at $500 all acre, but it is
generally believed that the count Is as
poor as he pretends to be. He was Wis
tied by some old friends yesterday and
asked how he liked his new home. He
expressed himself delighted with his
treatment and surroundings. He had
expected to find sort of baStile, instead
of a large, clean, well-ventilated and
comfortable building, surrounded by
beautiful grounds. The first thing he
did on arriving was to indulge in hair
cut and good shave. which delicate
service was rendered by M. Britt, an
inmate who is credited with being
highly connected in Austria. Thus no
bility has found company. Attorney
Mead express sympathy for the count.
as did number of others, and it is not
improbable that the bar, as body, may
interest itself in the case,
