OF family skeletons has been uncloseted by
the shooting of Mrs Cora Chapman, wife
Of Godfrey Hawley Chapman, erstwhile
6eoffrey Hawley, the actor, by her hus-
bands nurse, Herbert Searvant. Mrs.
Chapman, until she came Of age, was the
ward OF Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll Her
husband is the acknowledged natural son
of the late George NJ. Chapman, who was
at one time New York millionaire.
ENurse Searvant has now declared to the
police that the relations existing between
him and Mrs Chapman were not those
which should have existed between a wife
and the caretaker Of a dementod husband,
aud there Is deep veil of mystery over the
occurrences in the Chapman house on the
forenoon OF Monday when the shooting
occurred
Mrs, Chapman is still in a critical eondi-
tion Her ahte-mortem statement, In which
she details Servants attempt upon her
honor and life, has been taken by Coroner

George Booth, an Elkton Md. man.
was swindled out Of a suit of clothes and
an overco4t on p, w. & B. train last
evening hv scoundrel, presumably q
Philadelphian.
Yesterday morning Booth took his
two sons TO Philadelphia While there
he went into well-known clothing
house here he bought bis Oldest son,
Il years old, $l6 blHe cheviot suit OF
clothes, ard his little boy Sc grayish
brown overcoat. They spent the da y
very PLEASANTLY looking at the sights,
ard took the 08 train for home.
Booth placed the bundle containing the
clothing on seat for a pillow for his
little boy, and put over 1t his overcoat
The child laid down upon 1t.
Just before the train pulled ont OF
Broad street station man walked hur-
riedly into the car and took a seat ahead
OF the one upon which the child was
lying. He carried large bundle, which
be placed in the rack Some Of Boot as
friends were in the car which was the
smoker. The father and older son oc-
cupied seat across the aisle from the
sleeping child. Booth turned 10 his seat
and ehstted with his friends.
When the train reached Wilmington at
6 .08 o'clock the man who placed the
bundle in the rack reached over, slipped
the bundle Of clothing from under the
head Of the sleeping child and left the
car unobserved.
When the train reached Newport the
Elkton man thought Ii was time to
gather his children and bundles under bis
wing and prepare to leave the train at
Elkton. He stepped across the aisle TO
his sleeping youngster, and was surprised
to find that the bundle was gone. he
instantly gave the alarm, and every man
in the car was around him
to listen to his tale of woe. He espied
the bundle in the rack and thinking that
his bundle had been taken by mistake
opened IT, Within the outer wrapper
were four small bundles of tailor's scraps
and waste paper. He then knew that he
had been buncoed
An EVENING JOURNAL reporter who
was on the train walked over to Mr..
Booth aud asked him If he could describe
the man He said:
Yes; he looked something like that

man OF his section, 'but 1t WASH t him.
The man flushed to the temples

Well, he looked just like sharper,
Booth replied.
At this doubtful compliment the man
who looked so much like a scoundrel
moved away some distance, but soon
came back aud laughed good natursdly
The description Of the man and the
covering of the bundle were so imperfect
that the conductor did not feel inclined
to telegraph for the arrest of any person
for fear OF making a mistake Before
he left the car he warned everyone In 1t
to be careful, as there are, he said. per-

history Of the case dates much further
back. Dr. Graves was Mrs Barnaby's
physician and general adviser for many
years He looked after her property and
her money affairs. Mrs. Barnably, who
was the widow Of J. v. Baruaby, the mil
lionaiYe merchant OF Providence, had been
cut of with the allowance Of g., 800 a year,
but had in her own right a fortune Of
$1,000 Last spring she had a falling out
with DR. Graves, and after travelling over
the country for some time she came to
Denver on a visit to Mr.. aud Mrs. Worrell.
"Fine old whisiy.''
Six days before she arrived here, on April
8, a package addressed TO her was received
at the Office Of Schmerhorn g Worrell It
came by mail and was postmarked Boston,
There was ninety-hve cents ia postage
stamps on il, and Il contained a small
bottle marked Fine old whisky" and
bearing the inscription, From your
friends in the woods"
Mrs. Barnaby took 1t away herself, and
on the night Of April is she and Mrs Wor-
rell partOok of its contents. Both were
taken sick and physician was called in.
Mrs. Barnaby died with all the symptoms
Of arsenical poisoning, but Mrs. Worrell,

The whisky was analysed and found to
contain arsenic. The question then arose
az to who could have sent the poison. The
writing upon the package resembled that
of DR.. Graves, and he was indicted and re-
leased on $4,000 bail He was a benef.
ciRry in Mrs. Barnaby's win to the extent
OF $4,000 He protested his innocence
saying If be had wanted the money he
could have taken ALL az the 500, 900 was
under his control, and he need not have
murdered her TO get IL. The Worrells
were also left $4,000, aud for a long tim,
suspicion was directed toward them, bui
nothing came Of it. Mrs. Barnaby leaves
two daughters-Mrs. Mabel Conrad anC
