Great Preparations Made by the Deinel
Brothers for the Failure.

CHICAGO, H., Jan. 14.-"This case needs
heroic treatment" said Attorney Levy
Mayer in Judge Collins court this morn
ing. Simon Deinel is beyond the juris-
diction of the court. How soon the Others
will be there is no one can tell"
The case under consideration was the
alleged fraudulent failure of the Deinel
Brothers and Mr.. Mayer proceeded to out

lions.

said Mr. Mayer "has made a confession OF
his part in the transactions and. tells

for us in view of the complicated and
honey-combed condition of affairs to get
at the bottom OF this huge swindle in a

without collision, have purchased from

they have stored in warehouses and bor-

MIR. Mayer asked that Ellison, ELMER
shein & Co, be made parties defendant
and that the injunction be extended to
them as well as to Herman Schaffner. He
also asked that the American Parlor-
frame company be included in the receiv-
ership as part of the property of Deinel
Brothers.

ton issued by Judge Horton, which would

HAYES WILL HANG.

Opinion Below.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Jan. 1.-THE news
that tie state supreme court had affirmed
the decision of the lower court condemning
Dick Halves to death for the murder of his
little daughter, May, this being the first OF
the indictments against him for the muir
der of his wife and two daughters, was
received here today at 1:15 o'clock with
almost universal satisfaction. Men,
women and children came out on
the streets as the boys shouted:

There was not feeling of disappointment
at the decision of the supreme court, but
one of relief in the community in general.

TAKEN TO THE PENITENTIARY.
Tonight the three prisoners, Coughlin,
Burke ana O'Sullivan were hurried to a
train and taken to the states prison at
Joliet. The trio were handcuffed and man
acled together. Burke was in the center,
O'Sullivan on the left and Coughlin on the
right. Thus O'Sullivan had only his left
hand and left leg free, Coughlin right
hand and leg, while Burke was steel bound
literally hand and foot. O'Sullivan took
the matter bitterly to heart and wept a
little; Burke laughed outright; Coughlin
was furious, and denounced the proceed
ings as an outrage. The sheriff, police
captain, two officers and three deputy
sheriffs constituted the guard to the de-
pot. The prisoners were driven rapidly in
a closed carriage through the streets, half
a mile, followed by a troop of reporters.
At the depot the regular train was just
about pulling out and the little party
was hastily taken aboard and the journey
to the penitentiary begun.

MRS. POTTER AND Mr.. BELLEW.
They Sail for Australia on the Ocean
The Lady interviewed.

LONDON, Jan. 14-Mrs. James Brown
Potter and Kyrle Bellew were seen just
before they sailed for Australia on board
the Ocean, of the Oriental line. At first
they were unwilling to talk about their in
tentions, merely saying that they thought
that the press had been unkind. and that
for business reasons they did not intend to
return to America at present.
Mrs Potter seemed very sore at the atti-
tude of America, her native country. She
grieyed that all her holiday friends had
deserted her in her hour of need-not of
money, but of sympathy. She was of the
opinion that there was as much purity.
honesty and good breeding on the stage as
in the proudest New York mansions. The
press had bounded her for months and
made insinuations utterly unfounded. Mr..
Bellew was her friend, aud but for him
she would not have one in the world.
She did not want to talk of the future
She might come to America some day
when her offers to improve the tone of the
stage were not misunderstood. She was
sick and Disguised with interviewing,
particularly when conducted by women.
They made it a pretext to look at her
clothes and then to contribute long in
decent articles about her garments Bel
lew, standing by, frowned and urged Mrs.
Potter to say nothing more. They Quilted
London without any notice from the local
press, accompanied by nurse maid, d
Iady's maid and several big trunks.

Tho Trained Elephants Of India

A traveller writing of some trained ele-
plants which he saw in a seaport town ON the
Bay of Bengal, in India, thus describes their
intelligence In Golden Days: Here you see the
trained elephants at work pi2ing up teak tim
Der IN the numerous timber yards that line
the river. Their knowledge and intelligence
are simply wonderful They are guided by
native cslled a mahout, who is perched on
the neck, and who gives all the necessary
orders, assisted by his heel and an iron sharp
pointed goad mnch hike a small pickax. The
elephants thoroughly understand what is re-
quired Of them. Think Of them piling up
square timber to the height of forty feet,
every stick of which is IN line and in its
proper place, each piece weighing from two
to three tons. They carry the timber on their
tusks, holding it in place by their trunk, to
the place Of pning.
Mr.. Findlay, owner Of one Of the largest
yards. had his force of elephants put through
their various forms of work, such as pihng
up the logs and tumbhng them down, as well
as drawing by chain harness and pushing
with their trunks and t1isks from three to
FIVE of these logs, end to end, tandem fashion
These elephants are at times very trouble
some and dangerous, and great care is taken
TO keep strangers at a respectful distance.
They are immense in size, and cost from 500
to 2,5OO silver rupees each; that is to say,
from $500 to 81, $50 each.
When the bell rings for dinner or quitting
time they quit at once what they are at, and
cannot be induced TO go on, but bolt irnIne-
diateiy 70 their quarters for their meal Woe
70 the feeder should any of them be cut short
IN their food. They never forge. it, and re-
venge themselves at the first opportunity
They battle in the river every eveaing. and
know as well as man when Sunday CONES
On that day they make for the mad pats,
and, like pigs, wallow there al day.

sually large number of sporting men in

pear. To solve the mystery E watch was put
upon the fishing tackle, and Havesstraw and
Chris Moore went on guard A day passed,
but the bottles were undisturbed, and . good
mess of fish was caught. However, tkc two
men saw several eagles perched high in the
tree tops looking suspiciosay INFO the water
below. Then they would soar around and
hv clase 10 the creek, quickly going to the
highest limb Of the tallcst tree when they saw
the men.

straw To thinking, and when he told bis part

TOO LITTLE MEDICINE
An Arkansas City Lady Dies Under Chris
tian Science Treatment.

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan. Jan. 14.-There
is considerable excitement here today over
the death of Mrs. T. G. White, whose de.
mise it is alleged is traceable to the mis-
directed zeal of the advocates of christian
science. The fact CLEANED from what is
deemed a reliable source is as follows: A
few days ago Mrs. White was FRUSTRATED
with severe cold which threatened to be
followed by pneumonia. A physician
was called who prescribed the usual
remedies with apparently good results.
About this time couple of ladies who are
strong believers made their appearance
and advised the patient to quit taking the
medicines prescribed by the physician and
to remove a poultice which had been put
upon her chest. This being done, the pa
tient soon caught additional cold which
developed into acute pneumonia and re-
suited in her death this morning.
