Mrs. Chapman Suddenly Becomes
Mother on Her Arrival.

Mrs. George Chapman. whose husband
is described in San Francisco dispatch as
anxiousiy awaiting her arrival and as be-
ing mystified by a request for money,
when he gave her 81, 800. the proceeds Of
the sale Of q ranch, is lying Ill at the
Windsor with newborn babe. and tells q
very different story from that of her hus-
band.
She saws, and no one who sees her
doubts her story, that she last saw her
husband eight months ago when he left
their home in London, England, to come
10 this country. He had previously been
to America, but had returned. He sent
for her to come to him and she left Lon
don, accompanied by their little girl. 1
wear old, arriving in this city by the
Canadian Pacific on Sunday. February S.
Meantime her husband. who had been
here. had gone to his business as q black
smith in San Francisco. She was to fol-
low Oh the Umatilla, which sailed Friday,
February 10.
On Thursday, the 9th. she was taken i'll
in her room III the hotel. and was there
alone nearly all day, until some of the
guests we're attracted by her means.
PHYSICIANS were then sent for, and it was
found that she was suffering from labor
mains. After very serious time, during
which she was attended by two physicians,
a bow was born that night. Her condition
had indicated a premature birth. but it
was not SO. the doctors pronouncing the
child mature, although they thought it
would not live The child. however, ap-
pears to be doing well. although it has not
"a vet. at a week old, uttered single
sound. The elder child is being cared for
bv other women in the house.
Meantime Mrs. Chapman has caused
five kilograms TO be sent to her husband at
the American Exchange hotel, San Fran
cisco. bu. received no answer. and the
published telegram from that city indi-
Gates that he was in Oakland. Yesterday
she received very aaectionate letter from
him. written from Oakland, February IL,
in which he says he had sent her five .eie-
grams. but that they were evidently
answered by some one else. This may tie
possibly accounted for by the fact tha,
there are three George Chapmans in the
Seattle directory. The first word from her
husband was received Tuesday evening in
a telegram from him 10 the Windsor
hotel asking If she were in the hotel. This
was answered, telling HIM that she was
sick with an infant and asking him to
come To her.
That part Of the story referring to the
81. 500 is evidently a stretch of somebody s
imagination. Mrs. Chapman said her
husband had owned a ranch in this state,
hut If he had sold il he could not have
given her the money. as she had not seen
him. She says her husband left her $50
in London. With this she paid her ex.
penses 10 this country, and since her ar
rival here has been under heavy expense

doctors and two nurses. buy clothes for

herself for twelve hours against his brutal

to leave the country. He wrote TO Leather
asking him to take care of his crop Of pota-

and stored them on the place.

Leather taken to Humptulips. twenty
miles away. and tried before youthful
justice of the peace. who had never tried a
case before, and who bound him over in
the sum of $780, He was then taken to
Montesano and given into the custody Of
Sheriff Graham. His neighbors, while
they sympathized with him. were all too
poor to furnish the required bail. He was
released on . writ Of habeas corpus, which
is still pending. The sheriff believes him
innocent. and allows him freedom of the

Leather always bore an excellent reputa-
ton while here. and brought fine letters of
recommendation from his former homes.
He was An active member of the Young

in the field sports of the association. His
friends here are preparing affidavits con-
corning his reputation for honesty in this
