Rheubottom's Career IN Cortland.


CORTLAND, n. Y, Dec. 26-Homor E.
Rheubottom came to Cortland in Fcbru-
airy, 1891, from Weodsport, n. v, and rep
resented himself as an expert and expert
enced manufacturer of corsots. He desired
TO get mp company IN Cortland and in
duccd Samuel r. Welch and Byron III.
Bicrce TO form the Cortland Corset Manu-
featuring company. This was capitalized
at 500 and Wclch and Bierce took all
the stock except 81, 900, which was taken
by Mrs Rheubottom
1t was asserted later that Rheubottom
did not dare TO hold any property in his
own nano, as he was then under indict-
ment for swindling in Woedsport His fa-
ther had been a manufacturer OF corsets In
Woodsport, and the son, it was charged,
swamped the concern by swindling all the
stockholders.
Rheubottom identified himself promi-
nently with the Congregational church
here ana took part in religious and social
work He became a member Of all tho So
cinl organizations in town and was highly
popular The company began operations
March /, 1891. Rheubottom was superin-
tendent and manager and had charge Of
tho books.
The first year the company sold more
tn0n tit, ,uuu worth OF iniNncu WORK anu
seemed in "a highly prosperous condition.
Before the expiration of 1s months It app
pearcd that Rhcubottom had disposed OF
an the money realized and had borrowed
largely in the company name Creditors
pressed hard, and the concern was emhar-
raised. Rhoubottom mnde a plausible
/ statement, and the other Stockholders
trusted him.
Then Rhcubottom went to New Nori
and formed o new company, incorporated
under the laws of New Jersey, which wa.
10 buy an the goods of the Cortland com
pany ard soil them. For q few months th,
/ Cortland company sent goods 70 New
York. hoping Co got out Of its diiiicultie.
I'm that way rather than 10 close up But
il IS declared the New Jersey company
was a fraud and Rheubottom was only
getting more goods in his possession e
sell.
Rheubottom carried off nearly all th'
books of the Cortland company, and the!
were never found The liabilities Of thi
company exceeded $40, 600, and the asset
were hining. Mossrs. Welch and Bicrc
were almost ruined. Rheubottom neve
returned to Cortland.

Nav Be Regarded a Pirate.

TAMPA, Fla, Dec. 2s.-The develop
mcnts in Cuban circles during the past "a
hours havc boon startling and the actors
in the recent sea fight who were on board
tho Three Friends are badly frightened
over the gravity of the situation in which
they have been involved They find them
selves instead of being in dangerous
position as filibusters, to be i'm the unen-
viable position Of pirates, and the wisest
Cuban heads have been summoned IN con-
sultation Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury Scott Wike was at Key West invesu-
eating the matter. but the absence of a
district attorney at that place made de-
tention farce
Mr.. Wike stopped at Jacksonville and
censured the district attorney there FOR
having no representative at Key West He
arrived here yesterday and has been in
consultation with the collector of customs.
The affair now presents the following as
pect:
No dcnial had been made of the story
by officials Of the Three Friends. Their 81
lence was an admission.
In that case Spain may make requisi-
tion upon this government for the persons
who were aboard, and this government
! has no alternative but the delivery. Mr..
/ Wike is to leave this evening on the cutter
/ Forward for Key West, where the fullest
possible details Of the serious situation
viii be obtained.
When the Oliyette arrived here, Colonel
Nunez Carrillo and several other Cubans
were on board.
Captain O'Brien Of the Three Friends
also was passenger. Colonel Nunez ad-
mitted that the story of the engagement is
/ true and appeared particularly proud He
had been the custodian Of all the recent
expeditions. When they learned of AS
sistant Secretary Wilkes presence, the
| noasting changed to consternation as the
light in which they were regarded dawned
upon them.
This admission by Colonel Nunez and
the nondenial Of O'Brien is regarded as
substantiating the story of the fight.
Francis Lynde Stetson president Cleve-
lands former law partner, is at Fort Tam
pa When this was learned, it was said
that he had been sent as a special emissa-
ry to lool, into the case. This helped to in.
crease the fright Of the Cubans. The Three
