LOST HUSBAND AND MONEY.
Sarah Mead Made a Mistake In Marrying
DIR. Walker.

Sarah Mead Made a Mistake In marrying
DIR. Walker.
KANSAS CITY, NO., July 16.-Sarah
Mead, 80 years old, former school teacher
OF Greenwich, Conn.,, is minus husband
and $3100 in hard cash. She had met DR..
J. L. Walker of Des Moines, Iowa, at
summer resort in the East last year. A
correspondence was kept, and on June 5
last she came to this city and was married
to him in Kansas City, Kans. Now she
has discovered that her husband is false,
and that she has been the victim OF most
cruel deception. Her husband has deserted
her. and worse still, he had taken her gold
watch and $120O in money, leaving her
more than 1900 miles from home with only
$40. A few days after the wedding the
doctor told his wife he had been offered
fine practice by DR.. Shell in this city for
$1,000 in cash, and he had decided to accept
it. She gave him $500 and wrote TO her
sister in Connecticut for 5000 more. The
money arrived July 1, and on the same
morning while Mrs. Walker was house
hunting in Kansas City, Kans., the doctor
carted his baggage off to the Union depot
and left the city. He managed to obtain
$500 more, ostensibly to pay off mort
gage on his property in Des Moines.

"Cardinar" Richelieu of Chi
CagO'S Fashionable Hotel
in Trouble.
Some of the Chappies Fall to Pay
Bills and Reoeivership Soon
Follows.

CHICAGO, ILL, July 16. = Chicago's
most fashionable hotel, the Richelieu, is
in the hands of a receiver; cause, dull
business and inability to meet interest on
500, 600, for which the hotel company is
bonded. William Hugunin, secretary and
treasurer of the company, is appointed re-
ceiver. He says the EN- barrassment is but
temporary and pending the outcome the
Richelieu will be run on the same high
plane it has always been. Il. V. Bemis, a
wealthy brewer, founded the hotel, which
is on Michigan boulevard, facing the lake,
and fitted it.as sumptuously as any public
house in the world.
The Richelieu has always been famed
for its magnificent carpets, dTaperies, pic
lures and cut glass. Of the latter it has
several thousand dollars worth and a
score of China dinner sets valued at more
than a thousand each.
Cardinal" Richelieu, as the white
haired proprietor is known to his hosts of
friends, has made his house famous for its
cuisine service and its cellars of rare old
wines, unequaled in America.
His fad, next to his wines, was to have
"swells" for guests, and the numerous un-
paid bills by such guests is largely re-
sponsible for the present embarrassment.
Notable visitors, particularly foreigners,
have generally registered at the Richelieu,
and among the distinguished personages
have been Booth, Barrett, Irving, Ellen
Terry, Coquelin, Patti, Henry Watterson,
Mark Twain, Max O'Rell, Leland STAN
ford, M. H. de Young, Claus Spreckels,
J. G. Fair, and nobility by the hundreds.
Ten years ago the Cardinal" formed
stock company, which has since operated
the hotel. The debts are $350000 and the
property is worth nearly million. De-
fault has been made in the payment of
$1,000 interest, as well as on the bonds
matured. Mr.. Bemis is Ill at an Indiana
watering place. the result of recent sur
gical operation. The Richelieu's reputa-
ton is second TO no American hotel and
the aristocratic travelling public will be
glad to know it is not to close its doors.

FOUGHT IN d FIELD.
Ttco Hen Killed and Others Wounded Ia,
Fesdal Battle.


JACKSON, MISS, July 16.-A terrible
tragedy is reported at Learned, thirty
miles southwest of here, in which two men
were shot to death and half-dozen more
wounded. A feud existed between the
McRee and Terrell families, and last Sat-
urday one of the Terrels was severely
beaten by three McRees. They were ar
rested and trial was held in the magis-
trate's court at Learned to-day. The bel
ligerents were not satisfied and adjourned
to an open field to fight it out. Forty or
fifty shots were fired. Two men, Forest
and Lavell McRee, were killed instantly,
while three others, two of the brothers
MeRee, were seriously wounded, and it is
thought one will die by morning. The
Sheriff was telegraphed to come prepared
to enforce peace, as further trouble was ex-
pected.

SILVER MEN Ire AorIVE.
Champions of the West Do Effective FORK
an Hetu York.

an NeaU YORK.
NEW YORK. N. Y, July 16.-The silver
men in this city are still on the alert.
Some time ago the Tribune said that a
silver headquarters would be kept open
here all summer, and that at no time
would the New York station, so to speak,
be deserted. This statement has been
borne out. While the guard has been con-
stantly changing, and the responsibility
has been shifted from one set of persons to
another, there has never been time since
Congress adjourned that some of the lead
ers in the silver cause have not been in
New York actively at work.
Among the most indefatigable workers
have been Senator j. Don Cameron of
Pennsylvania, Senator John P. Jones of
Nevada and Congressman Francis G. New
lands of Nevada. Others that have been
here are: Senator Stewart of Nevada, SEN
ator Dubois of Idaho. Senator Shoup of
Idaho, Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota,
Byron Z. Shear and II. B. Gillespie of
Denver, and Mayor D. B. Harris of Tennes-
see. One thing in connection with the
silver propaganda is the fact that Joseph
c. Sibley, ex-member OF Congress from
Pennsylvania, who is prominently named
as the logical candidate for the Presidency
on a silver ticket, has not been in New
York at all during the summer.
1t is limited, however, that he is ex-
peeted here shortly, and that when he does
come a conference will be held. 1t is
known that Senator Cameron has posi-
lively aecliued to accept the nomination
for the Presidency on silver ticket, and
that he is throwing his influence toward
Mr.. Sibley. Senator Cameron is deeply
interested in the fight that Senator Quay
is making in Pennsylvania, for largely
upon the success of Mr.. Quay depends Mr..
Cameron's political fortunes. When Con-
gresham Newlands was seen at the Wal
dorff Hotel to-day, he said:
1.-The silver strength is growing in the
West. but l must admit that the East
stands firm for this o-called sound money.
We do not expect to derive our strength
from the East, but in another year all the
States west OF the Mississippi River will
stand solid for free silver"
Mr.. Newlands said that neither of the old
parties would commit itself solely to free
silver. He thinks both old parties will try
to compromise and the result will be bolt
to a third party. When asked about can
didates he said;
Senator Cameron will not be a eandi-
date. He refuses to leave his party for
third party. Mr.. Sibley has also declined
to run, or at least has said that he didn't
care to run. No one has right to nomi-
nate any one until the silver convention
meets. Senator Teller is a strong man in
the West and 1 know be would stand for
free silver if nominated.

EVICTING THE FARMERS.
Tenants Driren off by Indian
Police.

PENDER, NEBR., July 16. = Captain
Beck's police were busy to-day eiecting the
Flournoy company's farmers in the Emer-
son neighborhood. Last Sunday the police
attempted to evict one of the company's
settlers named Mcdonald, when President
Lemon stood off the entire force with re-
voIver. The captain of the police ordered
a charge, but none of the force cared about
running any risks.
The settlers seem to take more courage,
and it will be because of the cowardice of
the police if some blood does not flow.
The Flournoy company's attorneys were
at Coburn junction to-day, where they
were to meet Judge Norris, who will enjoin
Beck from interfering with the tenants.
