Detectives Take Stanley Keud.
rick to Memphis to Assist
i'm Locating Stanley
christopher.

The mystery surrounding thu
whereabOus of S'aniey Kendrick
who Was arrested for the Stiilwel
murder at Hannibal, seems to have
been solved at last. 1t will be remem
bered that Kendrick was arrested in
Peoria a week ago last Saturday on
suspici' OF having, with the assist.
ance of ano her negro man and two
negro women, committed the murder.
The arrest was made Oh information
give the detectives by negro wash
erwOman named Morgan. The d, tee
tives became convinced last Tuesday
that they had the wrong mau and
released him rather than fight habeas
corpus proceedings. When he was
rel ased from the Four Courts at St.
Luis, he lett in company with de-
tectIve in the employ of the private
detective agency that rad him arrest
ed, and since that time nothing has
heen known of his whereabouts, fur.
Their than a statement by his attorne :,
MIR. Chas. Nj. Nap,oD, and Mr.. New
combe of the detective agency, that
he was helping the detectives to work
up clew.
1t has now been learned that he
has gone to Memphis with a de-
tective to try and effect the arrest of
one Stanley Christopher, whom ne is
said to know well. Christopher's
nanIo has bUea nontinned before In
the case, and for time it was thought
that Keudrick and Christopher were
one and the same man, and that one
of the names was an alias F; this, how
ever, was proven to be untrue, and
the detectives are now working Oh the
theory that the washwomanis story
was true but that it was Christopher
she heard talking instead of KeRdrick.
Christopher is known to be a friend
Of the Dick woman, who was arrested
a week ago yesterday for connection
with the murder, but released because
there was no evidence on which she
could be held. Christopher was in
Hannibal in 1888, the year the muir
der was committed, but made a
statement that he left there in July of
that year the murder did not occur
till December. When last heard of
he was a fireman on the steamer
Natchez. He has friends in st. Louis
whom he frequently visits. As soon
as found it is probable that he will be
arrested and given chance to ex-
plain his whereabouts at the time of

beast at bay. The men came up and
renewed the attack. Having no guns
they threw clubs, stones and such
other things as they could find
Finally a well aimed stone sent the
enraged creature to the ground and

her husbands house and brought suit
at the last February term of court for
divorce from Mr.. viii r. King, a
prominent and wealthy citizen of high
standing in Saline county, the petition
charging bad treatment. A full and
fair trial was had and all the possible
testimony was added to the side
of the plaintiff, but nothing was
