hh uhiluppg eHllnS 10 an unctlOus
elopement, which several days ago scan
dalized the little town of Elko, Nevada,
was brought about late last night. /.
Ostreicher came in from Nevada on
late train and swore out warrant, in
in which he accused Mrs. Ostreicher OF
adultry and Emma E. Gleason, her sis
ter, of fornication.
Mr.. Ostreicher is the proprietor OF the
Depot Hotel at Elko and the two men
who have wrecked the happiness of his
home were the barkeeper and steward,
over whom the erring bride was mis-
tress. The two men are Daniel Taylor
and John Stimson, and for several days
they have been working in the city as
walters, while the pretty bride and her
sister performed similar offices in the
Cullen dining room.
pretty tale hangs about the fight OF
bride from her Elko home. On the 10th
Mr.. Ostreicher's bride came to him, ac-
companied by her sister, and stated that
she was going to leave him. She did not
mention where she was going. Two days
before that the barkeeper and the stew.
ard had left for Salt Lake. and were
waiting for the pretty Elko women when
they arrived. =
Mr.. Ostreicher was confiding hus-
ho nd Inv l,,U Iii
pretty bride. 1t was long time before
he suspected the criminal intimacy
existing between Taylor and Mrs.
Ostreicher, but when his suspicious were
aroused he learned that the illict rela-
tions between his barkeeper and his
wife had been going on for several
months. In the meantime he became
aware of the undue intimacy between
Miss Gleason and Stimson, the steward,
and then and there the enraged hotel
proprietor discharged them both. Two
tdays later the Den left Elko together,
and soon after tlie fckle bride deserted
| her husband for the man she loved.
Only the two women and Stimson
were arrested, as Taylor had fed from
danger and is supposed to be in Denver.
Soon after they We're taken to the police
station the pursuing husband arrived
| and there was long conference between
| them. Ostreicher was reticent about
speaking of his misfortune, but it was
nTt. l. .u,it ha Il
serter, that his desire to prosecute had
waned. It is understood that Mrs.
Ostreicher, when leeving, carried away
| rome valuables which her lord looked
upon as his especial property, and it is
supposed to he her agreement to return
these that caused the Elko hotel keeper
to weaken in his desirie to prosecute.
Mr.. Ostrecher stated last night that
he was about to begin divorce proceed
ings and that the papers wonld be ser
we'd on his wife tomorrow. The hearing
on the charge against the two women
will occur this morning at 10 o'clock in
the Police Court.-Salt Lake Herald.
John Stimson, Mrs. Myrtle Ostreicher
and Mi iss Emma Gleason OF Elko, New,
we're before Justice Wenger yesterday to
answer to charges made against them by
Isaac Ostreicher, also of Elko. The de-
PENDANTS spent the night rather uncon-
fortably in Acting Chief Eslinger's Office.
Early yesterday morning the complain
ing witness called at police headquarters
in a carriage and took his wife and
sister out for drive, after sending up
breakfast for them. Later, he expressed
sorrow at having preferred charges and
offered to go their bail. The hearing
was set for 10 O'Clock, but was postponed
until 2 o'clock. At that hour Ostreicher
failed to appear AMI the charges were
read to the defendants. Stimson and
Miss Gleason were charged with forni-
cation, and both entered pleas OF not
guilty. Mrs. Ostreicher was charged
with adultry. aShe listened to the read
in. of the complaint, which alleged
criminal intimacy between Daniel Tay-
lor and herself, She assumed a naughty
air and answered spitefully, "Not
guilty"
"Are You able tie give bail" asked the
Judge, to which the defendants replied
| in the negative. Prosecutor Putnam
stated his willingness to let the defend
antssgo until Monday on their own re
cognizance. This was done. 1t is thought
by the officers that Ostreicher stayed
