CHARGED With ROBBERY
]. W. Foley, a Cigar-Drummer,
Accused of Felony
Embezzlement.
His Troubles Are Attributed to His
Fondness for the Society of
the Fair Sex.

J. W. Foley, drummer and collector
for Simon Bachman & Co., wholesale
cigar-dealers, 102 Battery street, was
booked at the City Prison yesterday morn
ing on warrant charging him with fell
ony embezzlement.
Foley has been in the employ ment OF
the firm for the past two years. He was
regarded as an efficient salesman and led
an exemplary life for few months. Then
he spent most of his time and money in
the society of fast women till finally the
firm became suspicious and quietly CON-
menced an investigation OF his accounts.
They soon obtained evidence of the
fact that he was defaulter and the case
was placed in the hands of the Pinkerton
Detective Agency. Monday night Cap
tain Hlnde OF the agency and Detective
Ross Whitaker arrested Foley and locked
him up in The tanks at the City Prison.
Yesterday morning A. Bachman, a
mem Der of the firm, swore to a complaint
in Judge Joachimsen's court charging
Foley with felony embezzlement, and the
warrant was served upon him in the
prison.
The particular charge against him is
that on July Is he collected $3.50 from
Goldb berg & Co., cigar dealers, Market ana
Fourth streets, and appropriated the
money to his own use.
Captain Hnde said yesterday that an
examination of Foley's accounts showed
there was q deficiency of between $500
and $1,000. At first the peculations were
small, but they gradually increased in
amount.
Previous to entering the service of
Bachman & Co. Foley was an actor, but
did not prove success.

a great deal of pickering, but if they only
had more patience after that year in nine
cases out of ten perfect harmony reigns in
the family.
Il know of women-prominent women
who boast of the fact that they are not
mothers; who simply refuse to be; who
declare they will not give up their social
functions for It.
In regard to the subject of wives obey
ing their husbands. If any woman is a
true woman she is willing to give up to
her husband in all things"
Mrs. Sherwood speaking on this subject
said: IF women only knew the pleasure,
the happiness afforded women when they
are advanced in years by their children,
they would only be too glad to become
mothers. L agree with Rev. Mr.. More
land, II what he says is true, but l think
II slightly exaggerated, for | think that
gu te a number. in fact, the majority OF
our society women are mothers"
Nothing can be truer than what Mr..
Moreland says" said Mrs. K. Tobn yester-
day, land l most heartily agree with the
gentleman in the views he set forth in his
sermon.
"a great mistake is being made by the
society women. and l believe what this
CLERGY man said is quite correct"
ITO what DR.. Moreland has said I saw
amen" said Rev. Frank s. Ford. 81 believe
that woman has right to whatever she
wants, but she sometimes pays too much.
She should be told the cost in Just such

The Bell House Will Be
Searched by Officers
This Morning.
The Aged Proteotress Still Fails
to Produce Much Wanted
Records.
A Former Partner of the Dead Mil
lionaire Testihes in Behalf
of the Son.

NANNY" Pleasant is due to receive
some unwelcome visitors this morning un-
less the present plans OF Attorney Schooler
miscarry. Judge Coffey yesterday issued
an order for a search warrant of the Bell
residence, at the corner of Bush and
Octavia streets, at the request of Fred Bell,
who declares that the woman is with
holding certain books which would shed
valuable light on the way she has man.
aged the funds OF the estate of the mil
lionaire in her capacity as the empress of
the household.
The order for the warrant was served on
Sheriff Whelan late last night, and he
promised 10 see to its execution personally
this morning. Fred Bell and George R.
Eaton will accompany the Sheriff to the
family mansion and assist in the search
for the missing records. OF course it is
not likely that Nanny will be caught
mapping, and IL Is TWO to one that the
Sheriff will have his pains for nothing.
1t was on the cards that all this should
have been carried out yesterday, but the
diplomacy and ingenuity OF Fisher Ames
averted the matter at the last moment.
He produced three additional books,
which purported to be the private records
OF NJ mmT Pleasant, but, after a careful
examination of them, young Bell declared
they were not what he wanted, despite
the assertions of Ames that they were The
only books of their kind in existence. So
the search warrant tactics will be resorted
10 as a sort of forlorn hope
Bell had the stand all day Yesterday to
relate more of the particulars OF the his
tory OF his ranching operations. Fisher
Ames attemp pied TO have him admit that
the ring which Nanny Pleasant bad
given him on his nineteenth tirIhday was
the property of the woman herself, and
not that of Mrs. Bell, as he had stated the
previous day. Bell refused TO take the
bait, so the examination drifted into q
dreary recital of his episode at Guthrie
hVe years age, when, as a schoolboy,
young Bell was arrested on a charge IF at
tempted incendiarism.
Presley c. Hyman, pioneer and former
partner OF Thomas Bell, was called to tell
MS version of the affair, and it turned out
very favorable TO the young man. Hyman
said he had been asked by The millionaire
TO proceed 10 Oklahoma and investigate
the affair. He found that young Bell was
on the verge of starvation and under sur
veiilance of the United States Marshal.
He had been attending n private school
Kept by one Mrs. Hardy, and it seemed to
Hyman that the charge against the young
man was due more to her efforts ito ex-
tract money out of rich father than
any attem DIT at crime on the part of the
boy. The charge was dismissed and
Fred was then taken to Atlanta ana
placed in military academy, where he
remained almost to the death OF his
father.
The case will go on this afternoon.
