Odd Sequel of an Accusation of Elope-

CHICAGO, May %. S95.-An Emporia

elopement has developed into a sensa-
tional kidnapping case. Monday night
Judge Randolph, on a hearing of the ha-
beas corpus case. released P. H. Brady,
the young Georgian who was accused of

Oklahoma attorney, and issued an order
to Sheriff Evan and Deputies of this
County forbidding them to again ar
rest him on any of the charges consider
ed in the habeas corpus case. But a few
moments after his release. and while

grabbed by the arm by Dan Dryer, a
member of the city police, and hustled
into a cab standing nearby where Sher-

ceived him, placed irons on him, and
shouted to the driver to drive like the
In a few moments they were
out of sight.
Brady's lawyer, John Madden, was at
once notified. He reported the matter to
Judge Randolph, who ordered Sheriff
Evans and Deputies to pursue and bring
back the entire party if he could catch
them within the limits of Lyon county.
An exciting chase ensued, but without
avail, as the kidnappers' horses were too
swift to be overtaken.
Sheriff Smith took Brady to Green
wood County, where he turned him over
to the Oklahama authorities, who depart

ton was aroused. 7. B. Brady, father of
the Kidnapped young man is indignant
over his sons Illegal imprisonment, and
in a letter to the attorney, says he will
spend every cent of his wealth to punish
those who are in any way implicated n

is wealthy, being a full partner of Gen.
John B. Gordon in the big cotton mills
