epsiae SAYS His Name IL Speafin and
He IL the Girls Uncle.
The story published in yesterdays Posr-
INrELIIeHHcK1 about the middle-aged man
and two girls who were stopping 1t the
Windsor hotel and who seemed to be, from
several points Of resemblance, the trio
who eloped some days ago from San Fran.

sudden removal. One Of tho girls, Lizzie. left
few days ago for Portland. and yesterday
the man, who registered as w. c. Spaine, lett

Mamie. saying they were going to leave
the city. This departure, happening inn
mediately after the publication Of the
girls escapade, seems to lend color to the
belief that the trio are the same Peter
GOldstone and Lizzie and Mamie Waters
who left San Francisco some ten days ago,
taking with them Mrs. Goldstone's 81 900.
The man in the case tried to dispel this
suspicion last evening by coming to the
Posr-INTELLIeENcER office full Of indigna-
ton at the publication of his uiece's esca-
pade in male attire and at the suggestion
that he and his two young female COM
panions were the San Francisco trio. He
is q man Of about middle height, with
. rather Hebrew cast of countsnsnce,

As evidence that he is not Goldstone he
showed . pension certificate issued to
Charles w. Spearin under the act of 1890,
though he had registered at tho hotel a.
G. w. Spaine. He said he had come from
Fargo, N. D.. with his two nieces, a. he
called the two girls, and had never been
in San Francisco. Their name was Grant
and they were half sisters. Ono Of them,
whom he called Grace, but who he adj
mitted was sometimes called Lizzie, FORM
erly worked in Portland a. . milliner and
had gone back there, but he did not know
whether she was working now or not.
The other girl. whom he readily identified
a. Mamie when she was mentioned BY
that name, though he said her name was
Winnie. had been travelling with the An.
drews Opera Company - . male imper-
senator. but he thought she had consump-
ton and was going to keep her with him.
Her operate experience was mentioned a.
explaining her appearing in male costume
on the street He stated that he was -
laboring man." but could not give his oo-
cupation any more definitely. He was
asked about the 81 900 which he had talked
of having to spend on his trip, and looking
confused answered that "a man might
have saved some money" He further
stated that he had bought cottage and
was going to live in il. though he had said
at the hotel in the morning that he was
going to leave the city.

The liabilities are about $150,000. Mr..
Hustons total assets will reach near
$500 000
He holds more than enough collateral
to iquidate the total indebtness of the

Mr.. Huston is a man in whom people

get every dollar of their deposits.
In an interview today Mr.. Huston said:
1T is my misfortune. None of the
depositOrs or creditors will lose a cent.
My personal property will more than
cover all liabilities, to say nothing about
the real estate. 1t will not affect any of
the industries in which L am interested

suspension is the rumors that have been
spread abroad that / was interested in
foreign speculations and had lost
heavily. There's nothing in the story,
but it had the effect to scare quite
number of my depositors, which left me
in crippled condition. The bank is my

CONNERSVILLE, July 24.-When the
hour for opening arrived this morning
the following notice was posted on the
Citizens bank:
ITO depositors: Finding it utterly i'm
possible to make collections or to raise
upon my assets, owing TO the general
monetary stringency now prevailing, /
have concluded in the interest of all
concerned, to suspend business. A state
ment is being prepared, which will set
forth the assets and liabilities. L can
assure depositors that evey claim against
the bank will be paid in full with the
least possible delay. In addition to the
banks assets, my entire estate, both real
and personal, shall be held inviolate for
the payment of every claim against the
bank In full. ]. n. HUSTON"
To say that this suspension was q

Emory Moss Held i'm Preliminary
Trial TO the Grand Jury.

KOKOMO. July 24.-Special.-In the
preliminary trial of Emory Moss, charged
with a felOnious assault on the person
of NJ. L. Garrigus, growing out of the
attempt to tar-and-feather this man on
the night of July l, he was held to the
grand jury in the sum of $4,000.
The defense introduced no testimony
and the accused was held on the evil
dence of Garrigus alone.
On the night of the assault he said to
various persons that he had recognized
none of his assailants. On the stand he
testified TO having positively identified
Emory Moss as one of the parties in
the hallway where he was assaulted. 1t

to be made the victim of a tar-and-
feathering bee, in which Moss was a
party. he having personal grievance
against Garrigus.
In the court Garrigus was allowed to
express his suspicious" against several
reputable citizens of Kokomo. who will
willingly meet the issue. Under strict
rules of evidence in the circuit court the
victims of his spite VIII be given an
opportunity to answer.
