Mrs. Reed Arrested on = Warrant sworn
ont by Her Husband.

OuL Hy AlEE nuoNoAA1s
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Lee c. Reed
swore out a warrant in Justice Giles
py,s Court for his wife, charging her
with perjury. The warrant was giver
to an officer, who placed her under ar
rest. She declined TO furnish oond,
and was committed to Jail for hear
Ing.
The history of the case is interesting
Mr.. and Mrs. Reed have had trouble al
different times. On this last occasion,
while they we're living on the Island,
Mr.. Reed alleges that his wife struck
him in the face with a glass
cutting him in the forehead. He then
left her and refused to return. a Few
DAYS later he confessed judmeDt In
suit brought by Mendel 81 Co. and In
structed the firm to take his household
goods. Mrs. Reed protested against
this. A portion Of the furniture was
taken by Mr.. Reed and placed In
room which he rented from Mr.. Jen-
nings on Sixteenth street.
Mrs. Reed promptly brought suit
against Mr.. Jennings for the recovery
of the furniture, alleging In her ain
dayit. which wac made before jus
tice Ankle, that the furtiture was
her property. The husband was mott,
fed Of the legal proceedings, and
at once swore out a warrant for his
wife, charging her with perjury, as
stated above. Mr.. Reed claims that he
owns all the furniture, with the possible
exception of sofa which was presented
to his wife.
Mrs. Reed, when brought before jus
tice Gillespy. declined to make any at
tempt to secure a bondsman for $500,
and was therefore committed TO jail.
The commitment was made for ter
DAYS, on account OF the absence of Mrs
Reeds attorney, Col. Arnett, the Justice
intending to give her hearing as soor
as she is ready.
Later in the afternoon Mrs. Reed en-
pIoyed as counsel Messrs. Boyce and
Wilson. Her attorneys hunted uE
Judge Jordan, and applied for writ Of
habeas corpus. A conference was held
in the Office OF Prosecuting Attorney
Howard, with the result that the ha'
beas corpus proceedings were stopped,
and an understanding reached that the
hearing will take place this afternoon
