that he did not hit her, and can prove his

posted by him, and he was released, to

There is some talk about the city hall
as to who will fill the seat on the board
of fire commissioners made vacant by
the resignation of Louis F. Vetter. Sew
eral names have been mentioned, but
none of the councilmen will admit that
the lucky man has been definitely de-
cded upon. Shortly after Mr.. Vetter's
resignation it was stated that I. B.
Bolts one of the members of the former
board, was candidate for the place.
but the gentleman positively refused to
allow the use Of his name. Among 9TH
ers whose names have been mentioned
are George Stilson, former fire COM
missioner; Tom Strohm, former fire
chief and councilman from the Seventh
ward; Wilbur o. Dow, the business
partner of Councilman Grider, and Geo.
A. Sinsabaugh. 1t is more than likely
that either one of the gentlemen named
would take the place, but it cannot be
said who has the inside track.

AN EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGE
Boarding House Keepers Have Little
misunderstanding
Mrs. Warner Has Sadie Dor6eIl Arrested fo-
Appropristing to Her Own Use
Two Hundred Dollars

Until within the past few days Mrs.
M. Warner and Sadie Dordell have been
co-partners in running a boarding house
of friends. Now all is changed, the busi-
ness has been broken up and Mrs. War
ner Is pursuing her former friend, caus-
ing her arrest yesterday upon charge
Of embezZle ment.
1t would appear that Mrs. Dordell grew
weary of the cares of business and re-
solved to cast them off, for on Monday
night last she suddenly disappeared and
was seen no more about the esta ablish-
ment. At the same time the milch cow
which had furnished the boarders with
the lacteal fluid took her departure, and
several knives, spoons and pieces of ta-
BILE linen We're found to have gone with
the departing partner. There was an
other thing which preyed on Mrs. War
ner's mind. She alleges that during the
month preceding her departure Mrs.
Dordell had collected from the guests
of the house the sum of 5000 which she
placed in her pocket and of which not
cent was used to pay any bills for the
Establishment.
Mrs. Dordell evidently considered that
she had taken with her nothing but what
she was entitled to, as she made no Sc
cret of her address, securing room al
947 South Broadway. On Tuesday Mrs.
Warner appeared in the police court
and swore out a search warrant, upon
which the COW was recovered, and the
next day a like proceeding resulted in
turning up the silverware and table
linen. Yesterday the final step was taken
when a complaint alleging the, embez-
element of the 5000 was sworn to and
Mrs. Dordell brought into court.
Deputy Constable Mugnemi took the
defendant into custody 1t her room and
escorted her before Justice Rossiter
for arraignment. AS she had no attorney
and was entirely at loss as to what
course to pursue. Mrs. Rordell asked
for time, which was granted, and ar
raignment postponed until this after
noon. Upon her representation that
she would be unable to furnish bail, and
promising to appear when wanted she
secured her release upon her own recog
niZance.

ANOTHER SERIOUS CHARGE
Hastings to Be Prosecuted for Com.
mitting an Abortion
Preliminary Examination for Lillian Hat
tery's Murder Set for This
forming

Calvin s. Hastings, the medical cleo
trician now confined in the city jail
awaiting examination for murder, was
yesterday placed under arrest upon an
other serious charge. Detective Brad
ish read to him in his cell warrant ac-
cusing him of committing an abortion.
upon the person of Fannie Norris, the
young colored girl found at the point OF
death in his den when he was first ar
rested. Ever since the operation per-
formed upon the victim at the county
hospital as the only hope Of saving her
life, the girl has been too weak to make
a statement, but had yesterday morning
80 far improved as to be able to talk u
little.
Accompanied by the girls aunt, Mrs.
Hattie Epps, Detective Bradish went
over to the hospital and succeeded in
getting complete account of how, when
and where Hastings committed the Grim
iral operation, which may yet cost the
girl her life. The patient was so weak
that she could hardly talk above a
whisper, but her mind was clear, and
she described her experience with Hast
ings in detail and before several wit
nesses. Returning to the city, Mrs.
Epps at once swore to complaint and
the warrant was served.
The preliminary hearing of Hastings
and his alleged accomplice, the nurse,
Mrs. N. c. Weaver, Is set for this morn
ing before Justice Owens. Should
Hastings succeed in giving the $4,000
bail required on the murder charge, he
will still remain in custody upon the
second complaint unless he can secure
additional bondsmen. His defense will
be conducted by Henry T. Gage and ].
T. Jones, and a desperate effort will be
made to extricate him from his unpleas~
ant position.

Some Rain and r1ore Mui ]

Frequent and heavy showers continued
to descend on the land yesterday. Pave

sign of streets remained. The rainfall
for the season up to o'clock yesterday
afternoon amounted to 1850 inches, AMI

vious was rs
The street force was hard at work all
day, but the results of their endeavors
were not very obvious.
The street cars were crowded until
they resembled sardine tins, and the life
OF the conductor was rendered miserable
by the entreaties of women passengers
to find crossing for them. If they dis
mounted into anything less than foot
of water or cubit of mud they may
consider themselves fortunate.
The weather man cannot promise any,
thing more propitious than "proba bic
showers" today
