SAID TO BE IN SYDNEY,
A Friend of Ray Hamilton Insists That He
fs Alive.

The Philadelphia Times today publishes q
story in substantiation of the report of Robert
Ray Hamilton being alive and living in the
Antipodes under an assumed name. The story
as told in the Times is as follows:
''Robert Ray Hamilton is alive and is now
living in Sydney, New South Wales, where he
has begun life over again under an assumed
name" This statement was made yesterday to
Times reporter by an intimate friend of Mr..
Hamiitons and the truth of it was vouched
for by several letters which he has received
FROM the latter since his alleged DEATH The
gentleman who made the above statement has
been an intimate friend of Rober. Raw Hamil-
ton since his boyhood days and, although they
have drifted apart somewhat since then, their
cordial relations have always been maintained
The name of Mr.. Hamilton's friend is with
held at his own request, but he is a well-known
naval ofhcer and has recently distinguished
himself In the coast survey service by discov-
erlng the true source Of the gulf stream. II was
this friend, who, during Mr. Hamiltons dark
days at Atlantic City following the stabbing of
Nurse Donnelly by the woman whom the
courts recently declared was not the latter's
wife, stood by and relieved him as far az DOS
slble OF the miseries that were then heavy upon
him.
After the conviction of the so-calIed Mrs.
Hamilton II was by the advice of his friend that
Mr.. Hamilton purchased the ranch on Snake
river and went there to live. After Mr. Hamil-
ton went to his ranch his friend received a let
ter from him dated several DAYS prior to the
date upon which the unfortunate man ia said
70 have been drowned. In his letter Mr. Ham
Iton said: do not be surprised if you hear Of
my leaving here suddenly. as may go away"
When the news OF the drowning Of Mr. Ham,
ilton was sent east his friend was confident that
IL was false, and some time afterward his con-
fdence OF Its cntruth was confirmed by receiy-
Ing letter from Mr. Hamilton dated San Fran
cisco, stating that he was about to take the
steamer for Japan and from thence he would
go TO Australia. where, under an assumed
name. he would begin LIE over AGAIN.
