A MOST REMARKABLE THEFT.
The Plaintiff in Libel Suit Steals Her Own
Pearls to Save Her Brother.

The Plaintiff in q Libel Suit Steals Her Own
Pearls to Save Her Brother.
LONDON, Dec. 22.-Sir Charles Russell,
O. c., the distinguished lawyer who was
leading counsel for Mrs. Osborne, the
plaintiff in the libel suit, has with
drawn from the case, and the most
extraordinary rumors are in circulation.
The mysterious document handed to Sir
Charles Saturday was a letter written to
the Presiding Judge bv Benjamin q Sons,
the tailors. They said that on February %
last lady asked a member of the firm to
change the sum Of ESQ in gold into an
equal sum in bank notes. The firm, not
having that amount of money in their
SAFE introduced the lady to the National
and Provincial Banks branch house in
Picadilly. There she was accommodated
with the 1850 in bank notes. This sum, it
will be remembered, was the price paid for
the stolen pearls by Sphinx & Sons, the
Bond street jewelers..
This morning silence reigned when Sir
Charles Russell, counsel for the plaintiff,
arose and slowly announced that he was
compelled to retire from further con-
nection with the case, and to ad-
nit that the jury must render a ver-
dict for the defendant. He said
that the jury must find for the defendant,
counsel must say that the ser Gus imputa-
tions made in court and out of court against
Major Hargreaves, Mrs Hargreaves and
"another to be Mr.. Engle-
heart-must be withdrawn, as there
was no basis in truth upon which
to found them. The jury confirmed
this announcement. AS the court was be-
ing cleared rumor was circulated to the
effect that Mrs. o sborne stole the pearls in
order to save her brother from disgrace, the
latter being at the time in a state of des err
ate indebtedness.

the wrongs that the act inflicted upon inde-
pendent voters.

eta, reported cash received during the cam
paign, s., 299 "a; expenditures, 81, $50 %;

that the conferences shall begin in March
and continue until the State Convention.

Company, was blowing his brains out in a
lonely place near the beach of Lake Mich

died of diabetes. His estate is worth S.

Captain Edward Baker knew the great
manufacturer could not live week. When
Robert Baker, the millionaire of Racine,
died ten years ago, Captain Baker was made
administrator of the estate. Two years ago
Edward Baker became of age and
his share was turned over to him
by the suicide. Last week Robert
Baker, Jr., became of age, and q
settlement was rendered him of his estate
by Captain Baker, which included some
mortgages on Dakota lands. Robert OBJ
jected to taking the mortgages, and R. D.
Howell was sent to Dakota to find out the
exact condition of the property.
Last Saturday Stephen Bull and Jackson
l. Case, son of the unburied millionaire,
and Mayor of the city, being Captain
Bakers bondsmen, asked for an accounting
as guardian of Charles Baker, the re-
naming minor heir.
A furious storm ragged all last night, and
soon after midnight, about the time J. L.
Case was dying, the administrator of Robert
Bakers estate and the member of the family
who was chosen to take care of the vast
property, walked down to the beach of the
lake and killed himself. His body was
found this morning, with the overcoat collar
buttoned about his neck. He had been
dead six hours. Captain Baker was IS
years old, and was born in New York.

Filed in the Case Against Louis Clovis
Bonaparte.
LONDON, Dec. 22.-The Bonaparte divorce
case was up for a further hearing to-day.
Upon the first hearing Mr.. Searie, who
represents Prince Louis Clovis Bonaparte,
moved the petition be taken off the file, and
pointed out that it contained no allegation
on which the Court could grant decree,
bigamy alone not atfording grounds for a
dissolution Of the marriage. w. J. Dixon,
who appeared for the petitioner, claimed
that the bigamy charged implied adultdry.
Justice Jeune decided that the petition
should be amended, aud ordered that if the
petition was not amended it should be
taken off the file. To-day when the
case was called the petitioner had
failed to amend her petition as di-
rected by the Court. Prince Lonis
Clovis Bonaparte then presented counter
petition, asking for a dissolution of his
marriage to the petitioner ON the ground
that the ceremony was void because the
woman's first husband was still living.

PUGNACIOUS PARNELLITES

Give the McCarthyites at Waterford Hot
Physical Reception-Davitt Hopes to
Win in His Enemy's sStronghold-Healy's
Assailant on Hand.
DUBLIN, Dec. 22.-As the time draws
near for the polling in the Waterford
election, which will be held tomorrow,
feeling on both sides runs higher and
higher, and it will be matter of congratu.
lation if somebody is not hurt before the
polls are closed. Several prominent men,
bers of both factions of the Irish Parlia-
menuary porty arv IN vvatcrrurd and among
them is Michael O'Brien Dalton, the Par
nellite who assaulted Timothy Healy.
To-day Dalton met David Sheehy, M. P.
for South Galway, who is in Waterford sup
porting the candidacy of Michael Davitt,
the nominee of the McCarthyites Dalton
violently abused Sheehy, who retaliated in
kind. A large crowd of supporters of John
Redmond, the Parnellite candidate, gath
cred about the two disputants, and for a
time it appeared as if the whole crowd
would fall upon Mr.. Sheehy. They threat
ened him with all manner of bodily harm,
and undoubtedly would have carried their
threats into execution had it not been for
the police.
James c. Flynn, NJ P. for the Northern
division of Cork county, and Thomas J.
Condor, NJ. P. for East Tipperary, also had
a serious adventure with a mob of Par
nellites They were quietly passing along
when they were set upon by rabble, and
for few moments their predicament was a
very serious one. They finally got away
from their assailants and took refuge in the
room of the McCarthyite election COM
mittee The mob pursued them to the very
doors, which they tried to force, but were
unsuccessful
The McCarthyites are acting together on
the defensive, SO far as their personal bat
ties are concerned, but they claim that the
balloting will show that they have carried
the political war into the enemy's own

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE pIsPATcH.l
TOPEKA. Dec. 22.-The persistent refusal
of Governor Humphrey TO talk with any,
one concerning his intentions regarding the
appointment of Senator Plumb's successor
seriously comp1icate tine situation. The
Governor will not even read the numerous
letters and telegrams sent to him urging the
appointment of particular men, and will
not until Saturday. As a consequence, the
most knowing political prophets do not
pretend to speak by the card when yentur-
ing predictions as to the successful man.
George r. Peck, who has been promi"
nently mentioned in connection with the
appointment, is not candidate. Many of
his friends strongly urged him TO permit
his name to be presented to the Governor,
and assured him that could his consent be
gained there would be little doubt of his
securing the place. Mr.. Peck took the
matter under advisement, and communicated
az once with Allen Marvel, president of
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Rail
road Company.

Mr.. Marvel advised him not to consider
une i"es'i0" ioi i'oiiieht' iiaI his services
at tins time were indispensable to the COM
pany, and to resist all attempts to influence
him TO accept the position. This decided
Mr. Peck, and he at once informed his
friends that under no circumstances must
he be considered in the field. Mr. Peck has
many warm friends who are so anxious TO
see him launched on Senatorial career
