MYRTLE GILLETT'S TALE.
Her Home at Fredonia, Kan, and She
Had Lived With stockman Tucker.

Chicago, Ill, Aug. S.-A handsome
woman gave herself up to the police
yesterday morning saying that she was
in great distress and wanted to tell her
story.
She accosted officer O'Connen at the
corner of Clark and Monroe stre1ts
and was taken by him to the Central
station.
She proved to be Myrtle Gillette of
st. Louis, for whom the police of that
place have been searching in the hope
that she might throw some light on the
suicide of J. D. Tucker, a wealthy stock
man who cut his throat last WedneS-
day at the Lindell hotel. The woman
had been living with him, but in the eK-
citement following the discovery of
his body she slipped out of the hotel
and disappeared She was weeping
while on the street and with great diff
ficulty told her story to Inspector Fitz-
patrick.
MY name" said she,.'is Myrtle Gill
lette, and my father, NJ. Gillette. lives
in Fredonia Kan. In August, 1885, I
was in St. Louis. visiting some friends
at 2009 Olive street, and was introduced
to Tucker. Not having any work. 1
acceded to his request to accompany
him to Chicago, where we stopped sew
eral weeks at the Great Northern. La
ter we went to Kansas City, whence
we returned to Chicago. This time we
lived at the Hotel LuZurne on Clark and
Center streets.
Il went back to St. Louis only to have
him follow me and induce me to come
a quarrel on the corner of Monroe and
Clark streets and this policeman (point-
ing to O'COnnelD stopped our quarrel.
He gave me 81, 900 while we were at the
Luzurne, which he wanted me to invest
for him in stocks in my name, which l
did. We stopped at the Luzurne, after
I came back, for about ten weeks, when
again left him and went to ST Louis,
where he followed a second time and
forced me to accompany him to the
Planters hotel where we lived for some
time
I'VE grew dissatisfied there and went
to several places, finally stopping at the
Iindel hotel When we got there, Mr..
Tucker began to drink heavily, and al
though he never told me anything about
it he was specializing and losing money.
Saturday he acted queeTIy. In one of
his fits he accused me of having ruined
him and of having taken him away
from his family. I knew he had wife
and a Ehter of Is ard a son of about
16 years old. told him then to give
me a little money and let me leave him,
but he wouldn't do it. Saturday was
out of the house for a few hours and
when I came back I found a broken
bottle on the floor, and I knew some
how that he had poisoned himself, al
though he denied it, and when doctors
were called they treated him for stona-
ach trouble and never suspected that
he had taken poison. He grew worse
and worse and drank more heavily I'M
til the time of his death"
The woman said that she arrived in
town yesterday. The st. Louis police
were notified.
ST. Louis, Aug. S-Referring to the
above a telegram was received yester-
Fitzpatrick of Chicago, asking if the
woman was wanted in st. Louis. The
chief answered in the negative and 1t is
stated that she was then released.

DIR. GILBERT'S CHILDREN.
They Have Finally Been Brought
Back to Him.


Detective Joseph Matthews has re-
turned from Colorado with the two
children of Dr.. J. L. Gilbert and Mrs.
Gilbert. Mrs. Gilbert came of her own
accord, though the Colorado court or
dered DR.. Gilbert to furnish her with
transportation. The children are now
in possession of their father for the
first time since the separation of the
couple about a year ago.
Detective Matthews chased the chill
dren and their mother for several
weeks. They left Eskridge Kansas,
as soon as they heard that DR.. Gilbert
had commenced suit for divorce and
had been awarded the custody of the
children. Mrs. Gilbert went with her
parents and a preacher named Wilbur
They Travelled through Kansas in wag-
ons making frequent feints to throw
the officers off their track. They par

was certain they had gone to Texas
and went several hundred miles in
that direction.
The whole party was finally located
in Pueblo, but before the habeas cor
pus papers could be served they made
another move. This time they were
found in Florence and the papers were
served and the children delivered to
Detective Matthews.
