that he owned the property for which he

One Man, Relieving He Was Dy-

Another, Then Takes II Rack.
hN ~v.NzaY be Tried Himself

~ ~V-NaY DE TTied Himself
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 1,--Will Rich
ards was placed on trial yesterday before
the ,Blountvile Circuit court on the
charge Of numbering III December last
Jack Oyerstrcct, night watchman at the
street car stables and then firing the sta.
bles to conceal the crime.
The case presents some peculiarly mys-
terious. features. After the fire the re-
mains of man, burned beyond all pos
sibility of recognition, we're discovered
among the hoops of oil barrels. Jack
Oyerstrcet could not 5c found, and it
was supposed the charrcd remains were
his body. The original theory of the
case was suicide; that, after setting fire
to the stables. Ovcrstrect umped into
the barrel deliberately and died in the
flames.
Later on John j. Gosshorn, the well
known insurance agent, was miss
ing and at once tie general belief
was that. be had been murdered
by Ovcrstreet, and that the latter
having fired the stables to hide the muir.
der, had skipped with the money found
on Gosshorn.
Gosshorn's body was found in cove
five miles from Bristol. In the meantime
there was no trace of Overst treet, and all
efforts to get at the facts had ceased,
when one day last summer George Denny,
a prisoner doing penace on a Sullivan
county road for trivial offence, had a
sunstroke and thinking he wGs about to
die, made a confession charging Will
Richards with the murder of Overstreet
and the firing of the stables. Richards
was arrested and committed for trial.
When the case came up yesterday,
Denny said his former statement was
not true and that he had been paid to
make the charge against Richards. Upon
this statement Richards was at once dis.
charged. 1t is now thought that, in all
probability, Denny may be the guilty
person and he will be tried for the crime,
In the meantime the mystery surround.
ing the Gosshorn murder remains un.
solved.

Some Arrivals From Fresno Cause a
Disturbance.
At about O'Clock last evening Officer
Fay brought Milton d. Bright and his
wife, and young man named Tom
Siever, to the police station for quarrel
ing and fighting on Main street. The
three we're examined by Captain Rob-
erts, and they told the following stories ::
Bright was barber in Fresno and his
wife ran lodging house there. Several
weeks ago the husband. it is said, be-
came jealous Of Siever, and the
couple quarreled. Bright then ordered
his wife to sell the lodging house ard
leave town. The story goes that she
sold the house before O'Clock the same
evening and came to Los Angeles.
A few days ago she wrote to her hus-
bank asking him to join her and live
with her again.
Bright came here in response to this
invitation, and he and his wife yester-
day took ride on Spring street ear.
While they were out riding stranger
passed note to tae woman, which was
captured by the husband. 1t turned
out to be signed by Siever, and imme-
dlately another quarrel ensued.
Nothing more was heard until even
ing, when Siever met the couple on
Main street, and wanted to have con-
ference. Bright then said that it would
be impossible tor the three to live in
the same town. Siever asked the
woman aside to talk to her privately,
when Bright made disturbance, dur ng
which he drew revolver. The weapon
was wrested from Bright by his wife,
who at the same time called for the
police. officer Fay responded, and
took the trio to the station.
There their story was listened to by
Gus Smith, Captain Roberts and num-
Der of other officers. They seemed to
be ouieted down, and we're dismissed.

SOCIETY DUPED.

How a Number of Women Were
Buncoed.
A number of we'll known society
women are much exercised over the
fact that clever adventures has duped
them, and has succeeded in not only
winning undeserved consideration, but
has defrauded a large number of people
of large sums of money.
The woman in question appeared here
about six months ago and scraped an
acquaintance with well known lady,
through whom she made further pro
gress in her struggle for recognition,
and at last organized a plan of giving
some sort of an entertainment. This
was fairly successful, and as
her calling list grew, 80 did
the number OF loans she made.
She succeeded in getting note for quite
a large sum endorsed, and altogether
her gains must have aggregated neat
little amount, particularly as it is as
serted that she never paid any hotel
bills.
Her pretenses were discovered on
Sunday. One OF the victims whose sus-
picions had been aroused, and who had
written for information, received letter
from lady in Boston whom the woman
had claimed was her friend. The writer
said that the person in question had
given an entirely wrong account of her
self. Some OF the dupes Immediately
started out to hunt her up, but all they
could find about her was a report that
she had joined theatrical company,
and had left. essU
