HIS FOUR WIVES.
Charles d. French's Lack of Caution
Gets Him Into Serious Trouble.

Charles d. French's Lack of Caution
Gets Him Into Serious Trouble.
A Deputy Sheriff served warrant for
bigamy on Charles ID. French and trans
ferred the prisoner from his quarters in the
''hold-over" to cell in the Jail. He will be
held by Jailer Callahan until the arrival of
Officer Linton of Denver, who is now on his
way to st. Louis with a requiStion to take
French into Colorado.
French's matrimonial record is now in the
hands of the proper authorities. and in case
the separate charges preferred can be proven
against him the young brakeman stands
good chance of serving the next few years of
his life in the Canyon City Penitentiary.
The prisoner was arrested in this city
by Detectives Fitzgerald and Race,
who picked him up at the Union Depot.
Complaint had been made to Chief Harrigan
by the Denver auth critics, and the man was
placed in the "hold-over" to await an in
vestigation of the charges made against him.
This investigation has brought to light
story of French's matrimonial engagements.
The wife, who has caused FrencRs arrest,
is at present employed as a waitress in the
Melbourne Hotel in Denver, and she prom
ises to make the man plenty Of trouble. She
says she was married to French on the night
of June 90, 1889, having ran away from her
home in st. Louis TO wed him in Belleville.
Her parents had opposed the union
and a runaway resulted. They had lived in
Denver until August Sth, when French came
to st. Louis. Three days later his wife
opened a letter which came to her hus-
bands address and found it was from the
mans second wife. 1t now appears that the
first marriage was to San Francisco
woman in 1884. A year later French was
welded to Minnie Robertson in Portland,
Oregon, and brought the girl to st. Louis
In 1857 he deserted his wife and seven
weeks-old babe, who returned to Portland.
French is said to have then married young
girl named Ella Stewart, who obtained
divorce in the ST. Louis Circuit Court last
winter on the ground Of cruelty and deser-
ton. French then commenced his atten-
tions TO Carrie Smith, the Denver wife, who
is how so bitterly prosecuting him for
bigamy.
French when first arrested admitted that
he had married both the Portland and Den
yer women, but insisted that the former had
obtained a divorce from him lew months
after their separation. He said that he had
been served with notice Of tile divorce, but
had miSlaid the papers.
This morning the prisoner was informed OF
the charges made against him by the Denver
wife to the effect that she was not the second
b 1t the fourth woman he had married within
the past six years. French appeared little
surprised at this turn of affairs, but refused
to talk. He complained that he felt too sick
to make statement at the present time, but
insisted that he could establish his innocence
of any criminal act. The Denver and Port
land women will prosecute him-St. Louis

cured skiff and rowed into the stream, to
be rewarded by the discovery of a boat float

was found the body of a man, unconscious
and covered wi h blood. After generous
application of water and stlmulants he was
partially revived. and said he was from
PiItsburg, Pa, but refused or could not give
his name. In an incnherent manner he de-
tailed story of horrible import. He was
en- route from Pittsburg to New Orleans,
was well provided with money and stores,
and selected the rowboat means of travel,
more as a novelty than from any other
cause. When few miles above here, two
men started from the shore in skiff, rowing
rapidly toward him. Not having any means
of defense, he was unable to prevent them
from boarding his boat, which they did tax
ing from him $40 in money, after which one
of the men shot him deliberately through
the right shoulder. This for a moment
stunned him, but reyiYing, he thought it
best to assume death. The asSailants re-

Robbed of His Dress Coat While Trying
to save a Drowning Man.
While the streets were choked with peo-
pie few evenings since, an unknown man
sprang from the Madison-street bridge into
the river. Just then a carriage. containing
two men and two women who were in even
ing Dress rolled upon the bridge. One Of the
men sprang out of the vehicle and forced
his way through the crowd until he reached
the railing. Three policemen were peering
into the water from the foot-passage, but
not one of them made an effort to rescue the
drowning man. why don't those officers
save that fellow?" cried the man in evening
dress. There was no reply. and then he re-
peat his question. why don't you jump
In and save him yourself?" somebody
yelled. The bluff was called, for the stranger
removed his dress coat, low-cut vest and
glistening hat and handed them to one of
the spectators. Then he ran down the
steps to the waters edge and was about TO
make the plunge when a bOatman and the
policemen reached the suicide. He was
dead. The stranger ran back up the stairs
to get his clothing. 1t was gone. The Gus

While the crowd was laughing the stranger
