the relationship is beyond dispute. In
a few weeks the trial Of Talbot VIII
come up before Judge Burnett in sum
Der county and it is expected that the
Ohio statesman and millionaire viii
give him some financial assistance, III
d quiet way, TO pay for the services OF
competent legal talent TO defend him.
The trial will be nearly If not quite
as interesting as the alleged hynotic
murder trial that was before that court
d. few months ago. There viii be forty
witnesses from all over the United
States present. More than half of them
were at one time stars in the drama of
frontier life as played in Caldwell
ana other border towns. Many OF them
were noted in their lines Of business
which was principally Of a rough
character and not altogether legiti-
mate. For this reason the trial will be
interesting. 1t VIII be a reunion Of Dor
der characters who have long since
been swallowed up in the settlement Of
frontier towns farther west and who
have been forgotten except by few
historians Of frontier life who still live
and recount the deeds Of border heroes
for the edification Of the later genera
ton.

What do you want 10 say about

Il just want to say this, and il is all

man with firmness that could hardly

Mr.. Peck promised TO marry Ollie

Now as TO those letters | have this
TO say: ] am innocent. / never wrote
one OF them, and never believed that

Of that charge IS babe; | never wrote

Then Mr.. Peck talked to his wife and
assured her that she was excited now
and hardly responsible for what she
was saying, and he read the pedigree
of ollie Brick in way that would not
make good reading for some Of the
rea ders of the Eagle
One of the officers connected with the
United States court said: You have
not got that story exactly right. Susie
Peck does not charge her husband with
being untrue to her She only blames
him FOR ever having anything 10 do
with Ollie Brick. ] believe Ms. Peck
is a good wife and if she il really gull

and the jury could have done nothing
else considering the testimony. she got
into this trouble trying u shield her
husband from harm as she supposed. 20
II was understood yesterday that
Mrs peck's attorneys would make
motion for new trial today. The gen
eral opinion is that Judge Williams viii
be as leuient as possible in the case.
\ reporter for the Eagle asked Mrs.
Peck sister, Mrs. Smith, yesterday
if Mr.. Peck could pay 4 hne for her in
case Judge Williams concluded To let
her of with that. Mrs. Smith said.
Yes. he can pay fine. They have
no home in Meade Center. but my sis
ter and her husband have friends who
Will held them. This Is a terrible thing
for US and we are all positive that
Susie never wrote those letters. She
has always been a Sood girl and she
did not do this thing. and her people
would pay their last cent rather than
let her suffer innocenuy.'

Clement.

Clement.
\ wild rumor went around town yes
terday Afternoon that ex-MayOr Glenn
ent had dropped dead. 1t caused con-
siderable excitement for a moment or
two until il was denied.
The rumor was based on the fact that
at about o'clock Mr.. Clement fell in
front OF the Carey hotel and had TO be
taken into that institution and physi-
clans sent for. To be sure Mr. Glenn
ent was stricken rather suddenly. and
the extent and nature OF his illness
was not known for sine time. but in
less than an hour he felt able to be
taken home.
There were two stories told. One
was that Mr.. Clement was stricken
with appoplexy while the other was
that he simply tainted. He thinks him
self that il was sudden rush of blood
to the head. lie was attacked SINH
larly about a month ago at his home

CASE NOW ON TRIAL.
Bank Officers Charged with Making False
Entries

The case Of the United States govern
ment against 4. J. Lusk. c. H. Menke
and John Chapman was called in the
federal court last night.
This is a case Of considerable inter
est and it has attracted a dozen or
more prominent lawyers and citizens
Of Hutchinson 10 watch its progress.
The gentlemen above named were the
president. cashier and vice president OF
the Hutchinson National bank when II
failed in the summer of 1898. Some
time after the failure q proposition was
made To resume and the comptroller OF
the currency consented if the officers
would add $4,000 TO the assets. ~ the
time Of the failure President Lusk was
indebted 10 the bank and the stipUla-
Jion was that he should pay up. Nj
LuSk IL appears went - Kansas City

$1,000 leaving the same a. credit 20
