Los Angeles herald., 1891-05-24


commerce are becoming accustomed to
uttering the words Nothing new" these
days, for that is all the reply they can
make to the numerous inquiries made
in person and over the telephone.
A letter was received from G. d. Han
cnette yesterday dated on the 10th, and
detailing the efforts being made to trace
Hanchette from the Chicago end of the
line. As they have already been de-
tailed in the HERALD. further mention
is unnecessary.
Mr.. Frank Virgins received yester-
day batch of Chicago papers from Ben
G. Truman, giving the features OF the
case in considerable detail, and also
letter from Mr.. Truman, as follows:
CHICAGO, ILL.,. May 10, 1891.
DEAR Mr.. WIGGNs: Ofcourse, can
not buy papers for everybody, so l
thought would send you most or all
OF them, and you could show them to
journalists, and then turn over to Mrs.
Hanchette. l have been with his
brother most of the day, and we are try-
ing to get wind of his trunk, that you
telegraphed had not arrived. 1t is
barely possible that he is at Manitou or
Colorado Springs, as Yellowstone park
does not open until June 1st. But we
have telegraphed up there, neverthe-
less. No ticket was sold in this city
over the Northern Pacific, but one,
(second-class) and that was way through.
We are now after the Brown you speak
OF, as he left the Leland hotel $40 in
debt. Smith, OF the associated press, has
sent telegram all over the country SO
that Hanchette, if living, cannot fail to
see it. His father did not disappear
suddenly just twenty-five years ago, but
was shot in confederate prison early in
1855, and his remains were not head
boarded. The police believe he has left
town, but they are working the case up.
can now call to my mind that he put
his hand to his forehead good deal and
had fatigued look, but did not COM
plain of excessive fatigue or strain.
There is Santa Fe train that leaves for
Kansas City at IL p. m. with chair cars,
and we are waiting to see the conductor
of that train. Very truly,
Il. @. TRUMAN
This would seem to be a complete
refutation of the charge that Hanchette's
friends are not doing what they can to
discover hSs whereabouts.
Mrs. Hanchette is bearing up bravely.
1t is to be hoped that something
definite will be learned before long, as
the suspense would kill person of the
strongest nerves in short time, and
strong as Mrs. Hanchette has shown
herself to be, she is showing plainly by
her looks how much the suspense has
already told upon her
The impression gained ground yester-
day that Mr.. Hanchette was not foully
dealt with, but disappeared of his own
accord. SeveraNpersOns who were with
him lately in Chicago now recall many
things he said about his plans, which in
the light of afterevents appear as if he
wished to throw people off his real in
tentions.
