yachts had rounded Sandy Hook by
$3.50 a. M. The wind appeared
northwesterly there and the cup de.
tenders had it on the port beam.
The Valkyrie sa led out to the light
ship under main sail alone. Both
travelled remarkably fast and the
prospects for a good raj are getting
better every minute. The Vlgilant
added a jib to the expanse of a
vass just before crossing the bar.
The Valkyrie held to the main sail

A NEW NNK IN THE MYSTERY,
Mrs. Haywood Now Complicates
the Nordholt-Bentle Case.
Some Interesting Statements in Her
Gross. s.COmplaint for Divorce.
Did Bentley Deed the NordhoIt Prop
erty to His Attorney and Give
Him Large Amount
In Cash7

1t looks now as if neither the Nord-
hold heirs N or Bentley would get much
benefit from the big Nordholt estate, to
secure which it is alleged Bentley pois-
oned his wife; for yesterday further
complications ensued which will make
fat fees for the attorneys. When all the
litigation is over, Bentley either &C.
quilted or found guilty, and the lawyers
fees and court expenses paid for all the
litigation, the 100000 estate will not be
visible to tbe naked eye.
Yesterday Mrs. George Haywood filed
an answer to her husbands complaint
for divorce, together with cross com
plant, which, it is claimed, contains
some interesting matter. The cross
complaint, it is alleged. denies that Mrs.
Haywood has ever done anything on
which her husband has any ground for
bringing a suit for divorce, and asks for
decree, attorneys fees and alimony to
the extent of 5000 a month, on which to
support herself and her three children.
But the sensational part of the COM
plant is said to be in Mrs. Haywood's
description of her husbands property,
which she claims is all community prop
erty, and amounted to 100000, more or
less. This property consists of cash and
real estate. The latter, it is said, Mrs.
Haywood describes fully in the COM
plant, and that the description exactly
covers the real estate in this city be-
longing, as was supposed, to Bentley,
which WAS decided to him by his wife,
Mrs. Nordholdt, and which her children
are now suing to recover from him. tits
inferred from this that Mrs. Haywood
and her attorney, G. @. Stephens, are
under the impression that Bentley has
decided to Haywood all the property he
got from his wife, and if this is the case
it is community property; if it is COM
munity property why of course Mrs.
Haywood has an interest in it. and thus
another knot is tied in the title.
1t ia said that a further allegation in
the cross complaint is to the effect that
Haywood has on deposit in the Farmers
! and Merchants bank about $4,000 in
in the name of Abbis M. Michael. his
typewriter, which money is supposedly
the result of a mortgage of portion of
the Nordholt property.
At any rate Attorney @. @. Stephens
yeeGerQay aumltCeu JnaJ ne DaQ secured
an injunction restraining the Farmers
and Merchants bank from paying out
any money that it has in the name of
George Haywood or Abbie Michael, and
also restraining Haywood or Abbie
Michael from drawing such money, and
served lis pendens on the real estate.
Altogether the whole business ia in a
pretty tangle, and the outcome no man
can foretell. No deed of the real estate
from Bentley to Haywood appears on the
records. but it is a possibility that the
deeds were made before Bentley gave
Haywood his irrevocable power of at
torney. In this case it would not be

A LEPER ON THE STREETS
THE HORRIBLE OBJECT SEEN YES
TERDAY BY TWO DOCTORS.
A Frightfnl Case that Demands Instant
and Vigorous Action on the
Part of the City
Health Officer.

A Chinaman yesterday at about noon
was promenading on Spring street. near
First. There were doubtless other
Cinnamon in that vicinity but they did
not attract much attention, but the
Mongol referred to was remarkable in
many ways. In the first place his nose
was gone, and he had no ears, his face
was spotted and swollen, and altogether
he presented very repulsive appear
ance.
DR.. Hsgan aud DR.. Orme happened
along about that time and their atten-
tion was at once attracted to the disease
eaten Chinaman.
"It's case of leprosy," said DR..
Orme.
"And a very bad one,o replied DR..
Hagan, who has spent considerable
time in the Hawaiian islands studying
the terrible malady.
The two physicians talked to the
wretched man. He said his name was
All Jim, and that he had lived here for
two years.
"Where do you live?" asked DIR.
Hogan.
'In Chinatown" WAS the answer.
"But whereabouts in Chinatown? On
what etreet?" he was asked.
"No sabe" was all he would answer,
and no amount of questioning would ex-
tract any further information from him,
and he trotted on his way. DR.. Babcock
also saw the leper before be got away,
and agreed with the others that it was
case of true Asiatic leprosy in an ad-
vanced stage.
This is pleasant matter to contem-
plate; according to his own statement
this leper has been living here unguard-
ed, going where he pleased, when he
pleased, and has had full opportunity to
infect others with his horrible disease.
1t is these matters that city health
officer is supposed to look after, and
that official will do himself credit if he
goes to work at once and captures this
walking pest and isolates him perma-
nently. His being at liberty is a
constant menace to the health of un-
suspicious people, There is no telling
what laundries and shops he may fire.
quent nor how many people he elbows
and jostles on his walks about the city.
He should be hunted up today and put
where he can be cared for ard where he
cannot .inhict irreparable injury to
others.

PAYING OFF THE DEBT.

What the Ladies' Have Done for I'M
manuel Church.
Two years and eight months ago the
ladies in the congregation OF Emmanuel
church on Tenth street set about paying
off debt of $4,000, accumulated in the
furnishing and upholstering of the
church. One of the foremost in the
work was Mrs. L. A. Kelly, now q resi-
dent of San Francisco, but there were
others who took up the labor of love
where she had laid it down. Mrs. J. J..
Ayers, Mrs. Mathews, Mrs. Salisbury
and score of others that might be
named, all labored with common end
in view, until yesterday all the debts
ment of the church were paid
off and obliterated forever.
The Sunday school rooms of the
church were thrown open last night in
commemoration of the event snd gen.
eral reception was given by the congre-
CATION to their friends. Rev. Mr.. Chi
chester presided and the little room had
been beautifully decorated with roses
and ivy with an appropriate motto in
smilax on the wall. After an address
by DIR. Chichester, paper was read by
Mrs. Salisbury, president of the Ladies'
Aid society. Then Mrs. Mathews, treas.
urer of the Ladies' Aid society, read her
financial report and then brief address
was made by Mrs. J. J. Ayers, vice
president of the association. Then
DIR. Boal, Mr.. Patterson, Colonel Ayers
and several other gentlemen spoke
briefly and the company were invited to
collation. in the adjoining room where
sandwiches. coffee. cake and ice cream
were served by the young ladies of the
congregation, after which everybody
went home delighted at pleasant re-
union and glad to think that the church
debt was thing of the past.

her photograph shows her TO be pretty.

Her answer was not among his letters.
In his satchel were also found numerous
employment agency blanks, showing
that he and Mellequoid had been in a
similar business in Seattle, Tacoma and
numerous other cities on the coast, and
they even attempted to do business in
the dead city of San Diego. The satchels
which the men left in the lodging house
on their hasty flight, and in reference
to which they wrote the landlord from
Lower California, were yesterday taken
possession of by the chief of police.
Chief Glass also telegraphed Chief
Crowley asking if Crowell was wanted in
San Francisco, and last evening received
this reply:
"Will wire you in the morning
whether we want Crowell."
Following is description of each of
the men:
Charles Mellequaid-Age about 32
years; blacksm tn; height, 5 feet So
inches; weight, 166 pounds; dark hair
and brown eyes.
William st. Clair Ross-Age 35; born
in Columbus, o.; height, feat 61S

brown eyes, scar on side of neck.
George Crowell, alias Hood, aged 3S
years height 5 feet 81 inches; weighs
149 pounds; brown hair sprinkled with
gray; blue eyes; Indian ink work on
back OF his hand; the little toe of his
right foot is missing.
Crowell seems to be deaf; but it 10 be-
lieved that he is shamming.
The department hAs done good work
in arresting these three confidence oper-
ators. who have successfully swindled
laboring men and others in numerous
towns, under the guise of real-estate
and employment agents. They had
blanks of every description, and for
every species of salable real estate, and
guaranteed employment OF every nature
fol every applicant.
They are the most shrewd and sue
cessful confidence men in that line who
have visited the coast for many years.

The men not returning to the office
within the two or three days specified.
Jansen stated the case to Chief Glass
Moffatt detailed two men to visit the
room, and on theii arrival the bunco
fellows had fed. IN
1t Is believed that they were watching
Jansen as he entered the chiefs office,
for 1t is known that the confidence op-
orators were in their room only few
minutes before the complaint was made.
A few days afterwards the men were
heard of in Lower California. A letter
was received by the landlord from
Crowell requesting him to hold their
baggage until one OF their friends should
call for it. The letter bore the post
mark of Tia Juana.
1t is believed that they went directly
to San Francisco from Lower California,
and resumed operations at their main
Office at No. II Grant avenue.
The HERALD yesterday contained an
account of street fight between W. A.
Pierce and W. F. Ross with s'story be-
hind it." Pierce, it is claimed, was
victimized out of $500 in San Francisco
by Ross, from whom he purchased a
mythical half interest in a real estate
business. He was subsequently, it is
alleged, swindled out of $3.50 by Ross
and another man named Remand,
who came upon the scene later.
After the arrest of Pierce and Ross
last Monday evening, man who gave
the name of Hood, and pretending to be
deaf, appeared at the station and asked
the amount of Ross bail. Hood stated
that he had given to Ross a check for
5000 just before the fight.
Ross had no check upon his person
when searched; he denied any knowl-
edge of the check, and said that Hoods
name was G.. w. Crowell and that he
was his friend.
This naturally created suspicion as to
his identity, and on investigation the
detectives have, they think, connected
Ross and Mellequoid with CroweIl alias
Hood.
Pierce was fined $5 in Justice Sea-
mans court yesterday for battering
Ross, and the case Of Ross will come up
today.
Chief of Police Glass telegraphed to
