MAKES LOVE TO GULLIBLE WOMEN.
Wild Chase of Mrs. julia Fisher After
a. Man Who Defrauded Her.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.-Mrs. Fisher,
formerly of indianapolis. the woman who
has travelled miles in search of a man who
promised to marry her, but instead sand
bagged her and stole $4,000 from her, still
claims that ex-Sheriff c. S. Aaumeister, of
this city, is responsible for all her trouble.
Mrs. Fisher tells her story of how the
ex-oficiaI, under the name of Cecil King,
courted her and afterward robbed her.
She tells of their meeting in Indianapolis
Orleans. MIR. I4aumeister denies the whole
story, and says he was never in either of
the two cities named. The description
which Mrs. Fisher has frequently given of
King does not at all fit Laumeister.
Mrs. julia C. Fisher alleges to have been
robbed last September. She is a widow with
two children and owned property at No.
46 North Delaware street and two small
pieces in Haughville. A man representing
himself to be Cecil King, a wealthy Cali
fornia merchant, came here and became
acquainted with her. 1t is thought that the
man was Harry l.. Cavelle, who has a wide
reputation in the West for ~defrauding
scented that he watned to trade some Cali
fornia land for Indianapolis property. King
represented to the agency of Strouse &
Fullen that Mrs. Fisher had referred him
of his California property and the agency
refused to trade with him. Mrs. Fisher
advanced 1900 to invest for her and he
left the city. She afterward left the city,
and now thinks she mas her runaway To-
Gated in California, but the man who de-
frauded her is supposed to be in Mexico,
to which place he fed after robbing a
Toledo widow.

ROBBED A CHICAGO CHURCH.
AIonzo Snfder Let Go Unpublished
After Stealing $4,000.

CHICAGO, April 22.-After having robbed
the Second Baptist Church Systematically
for ten years, Alonzo Snider has been
dropped from the list of members and has
lost a position with the church which paid
him 5000 a year. This is the only punish
ment given him for the theft of probably
$4,000. Mr.. Snider said he thought he had
taken $1,000, but surely not more than ST.
600. The officials of the church have dis
covered, so far, that the theft amounts to
about $1,000 a year during the ten years Mr..
Snider acted as collector and general utility
man for the trustees. Mr.. Snider, who is
about sixty-five years old, besides his po-
sition with the church, acted as solicitor
for an insurance company. He has been
connected with the company for thirty-four
years. He declines to discuss the matter.
Rev. DR.. Lawrence, pastor of the church,
said the trustees had not cared to do any
thing further than the action stated above,
out of regard for Snider's family. Snider
was at one time well to do. but lost every
thing in the great fire of 1871. The money
was taken from collections and pew rentals.

LONDON, April GA dispatch to the
Times from Kobe, japan, says that all fur
loughs of officers of the British men-of-war
at that place and at Magasaki have been
stopped. The commanders of the war ships
have received an order from the Russian
legation to hold themselves in readiness to
leave at twelve hours notice.
A Berlin dispatch to the Times says that
the Vossische Zeitung blames the govern
ment for joining France and Russia against
Japan. The paper says: Suppose Great
Britain and the United States support Japan
in refusing to submit TO the Russian de-
mands? Germany would become involved
in needless complications and would lose
her own trade without earning China's graf
itude."
In an editorial the Times, after admitting
hat Japan evidently intends to cripple and
humiliate China in a manner seriously af-
fecting European interests, insists that the
diplomatic history of Europe does not bear
out the pretensions that any power or pow
ers are entitled to dictate the terms of
peace between the two nations. 1t adds:
Great Britain's interests are involved quite
as much as Russia's but we find no stipula-
tions In the treaty of peace warranting
our interference at the cost of exciting the
enmity of ,Japau."
