A HEARrLEss CREATURE.
Lyman Living with Maud Otis, While His
Wife Is In Town--Police Notes.

III
Butte. May 2-The trial Of II. b.
Lyman and Maud Otis for alleged
adultery was set for this afternoon
in police court, but at the last moment
Mrs Lyman Withdrew the charge in
order to avoid the publicity which
would follow the trial, and a large
crowd of spectators who had been at
tracted by the scandal left the court
room badly disappointed. Mrs. Ly-
man was advised by her lawyer that
IL would be almost impossible to Sc
cure conviction on account, of the diff
ficulty In proving that her husband
and his mistress had . actually sus-
tanned improper relations. The cir
cumstantial evidence against them
was very strong but her attorney
stated that Ii would be almost impos-
sible to prove that their Intimacy had
extended beyond the occupancy OF the
same room, and this would not be
sufficient proof of the offense charged
Under these conditions Mrs. Lyman
preferred to let the case drop rather
than to have any further publicity
about IL, as she is naturally very
modest lady. She is highly respected
by all who know her and is receiving
a great deal of sympathy from all
sides She stated this afternoon that
she would let her husband continue his
try to find some means of supporting
herself and little boy.
Lyman and the Otis girl are still
living together in the Gordon block re-
gardless of public opinion. Lyman $
action is generally referred to as that
of a disreputable cur, and he seems
to have been entirely forsaken by his
friends, of whom he had a large num-
Der previous to his heartless desertion
of his wife. The police are still at work
on the case and are trying TO unearth
the Otis woman's second husband
who is believed to be living in Seattle
The woman is wearing very fine
clothes since her arrival in Butte. and
1t would appear that she has pretty
good source of revenue.

VERY MUCH SURPRISED.
Capt Smith Admits the Collision But Thouqhi
Vessel Was Not Damaged.

Boston, May 14-Just before the
steamer Yarmouth sailed, today, for
Yarmouth, N. s., Captain Smith was
shown n copy of tho telegram from
Gloucester, stating that the fishing
schooner Trabigzanda was towed into
that port, dismasted DIS a result of col
lision, Sunday morning, on Cashe's bank
Captain Smith admitted colliding, but
was very much surprised to hear that she
was SO seriously damaged. His version
of the affair is rs follows
I'VE had encountered dense fog while
crossing the bay of Fundy, which con
tinucd. Sunday morning At an early
hour, Sunday, a fishing vessel suddenly
doomed up, directly in front of us, and
before the steamers Roadway could be
checked she ran across her bow, carrying
away, as we supposed. only her bowsprit
There were several other fishing vessels in
the vicinity, and not thinking the vessel
seriously crippled, we continued on our
way"
Captain Smith says the statement of
the captain of the fishing vessel that the
weather was cieur ut the time, is absolutely
untrue.
