Helena, Mont, May s. - All the
troubles that have beset the house of
Hershfield by reason of the rich
bankers marriage with "the poor

end. The case gained national no
toriety by the sensational trial at
Fargo, in which Aaron Hershfield
sought to have his marriage with Dell

he was not in the proper mental con-
dition to contract marriage, and in
which he attacked the character of
his wife. He lost his case. however.
Mrs. Aaron Hershfield had a suit in
the courts in this city against L. II.
Hershfleld and his wife for alienat-
ing the affections of her husband,
asking $4,000 damages.
The case came up to-day and was
postponed, and it o developed that
a settlement had been agreed upon.
Mrs. Aaron Hershfield is to apply for
a divorce, which can easily be Sc
cured, as Aaron has been absent
more than q year, now living in Chi
cago. Alimony has been agreed upon
at $4,000 and Mrs. Aaron will with
draw her suit against her brother-lc-
law. Mrs. Aaron will retain posses
sion of her baby, the daughter Of

James Camp committed a burglary in
Cumberland last Saturday and left
on the midnight train. He was
tracked to this city where he regis
tered under the name of Frank

Barron county went to his roora,
where he was found in his shirt and
trousers only. The sheriff proceeded
to search his clothes. Finding moth

what have, you in there?" placing
his hand on his hip pocket. Moth

volver and told him to get right out
of that. The officer got. A posse was
soon formed to aid in his capture.
In the meantime Camp proceeded
to fire a quantity of silverware into
the river close by through the win
dow, and then placed a lot of papers,
in a slop jar and set them on fire.
This caused an alarm Of fire to be
turned in. A fireman with a hose
presented himself at the window and
found himself looking into a gun or
two. He also was told to get out.
BY this time q number had collected
with guns outside. Camp saw a man
with a Winchester, called to him to
get out with that cannon and fired
upon him. His fire was returned,
when a general fusilade was inaugur-
ated. Camp held his own until parties
in the hall began firing through the
door, when he wilted and called out:
"For Gods sake stop and I'll come
out" When he opened the door he
looked into so many holes that he
quickly obeyed the command to hold

from London to Rear Admiral Stcph-
enson, commanding the British squad
ron at Corinto, directing him to evac-
uate the port to-day. The WnrShips
presented a scene of orderly hustle
this morning. giving evidence that
something out of the usual course was
going on. Boats passed frequently
between the shore and vessels, the
little mid-shipmen in charge wearing
an air of greater importance than
usual. They were evidently bearers
of communications to Capt. Trench,

seizure Of Corinto. had been appoint

place was 400 blue jackets and ma
rines, but on Friday, when it became
known that the tension had become
relaxed, all of them. with the exccp-
ton of fifty-eight marines and their
officers, were withdrawn.
Shortly after the flag denoting that
religious services were in progress on
board the warShips was hauled down
the marines, who had been drawn up
in front of the custom house were
ordered to return to their ships. A
few minutes later the British flag was
hauled down from the government
building and soon the soil of Near
aqua was rid of the British invaders,
and the long strokes of the sailors
were sweeping the heavy boats to the
warships lying in the harbor.
Hundreds of persons assembled
along the shore to see the embarka-
ton of the marines, and a cheer went
up as the noses of the boats headed
harborward.

FALL OF A POSTAL CLERK.
Michael j. Hoban Is Charged Wit

Michael j. Hoban IL Charged With
AbstractinE a Letter Fro Mails.
Minneapolis, May S.-The result Of
several weeks of investigation by the
local postal authorities eliminated
this morning in the arrest of Michael
j. Hoban, one of the distributing
clerks, on the charge of unlawfully
abstracting a letter from the mails.
The arrest was managed so quietly
that the majority of the clerks and
carriers in the office did not know
anything of the matter. Hoban was
taken before Commissioner Bowen
and sent to the county Jail to await
his, preliminary examination, which
win1e held tomorrow morning. For
some time past there has been more
or less stealing from the mails in the
local postoftice, and an investigation
was ordered. All sources of informa-
ton were closely watched, and at last
suspicion seemed to fasten itself I'M
deniably upon Hoban. The particu-
lar offense charged occurred Satur-
day. and was doubtless a decoy letter,
although the details Of the affair have
been kept remarkably quiet.

ing the town and srcteeded In di
yerting the course of the flames.
Everything in the woods is as dry
rs finder and the leaves and under
brush will furnish abundant fuel for
the blaze. The flames are going up
the hillside at a rapid rate and de-
stroying everything in their path. The
city is black with n sitting smoke and
the flames shoot up as high as the
top of the trees. A man had his
shoulder broken and another vas in
jurcd internally while jumping from
one of the buildings. In another
house lay a woman who had given
birth t. a child twenty-four hours
previously. She was rescued from the
flames withmuch difficulty. and it is
feared will die from fright and ex-.
haustion. Later a second appeal was
received from Glen Hazel asking for
more help, and t%hirty-tive firemen
with hose were sen by special train.
1t was feared that the fire was about
to cross the east branch of the CLAIR
ion river and sweep out the town of
Glen Hazel. The woods along the
Erie railroad between Ketner and
Bradford are on fire, and it is feared
the loss to oil and lumber property
will be great.
Fires are raging between Rixford
and Farmers Valley on valuable
timber lands, and large Quantities have
been destroyed. The Columbia Coal
company's property is now threat
ened. Between Crawford Junction
and Riterville a fierce fire is raging
on both sides of the Erie railroad
tracks. Considerable damage has
been done between Gallagher and
Hutchins. A fire Las been in progress
at Chipmuck since Thursday, and
several oil we'll rigs owned by
Franchol Brothers of Olean, N. Y,
were destroyed. Between Emmetts-
port and Pew City the woods are on
fire in several places, but no damage
nas been reported.
