A MOTHERS SORROW.
Deserted BY Husband and
Spurned BY Her Daughter.
sEAMY TALE OF GERMAN LIFE
MRS. KARL GUTJAHR WAITED
FOR YEARS FOR A LETTER AND
WHEN NONE CAME SHE JOUR-
NEYED TO WILMINGTON AND
SURPRISED HER RELATIVES.

When the good ship Netherlands, of
the Red star Line, steamed from her
wharf in Philadelphia last Thursday
for Germany she carried a passenger
who had an adventure in Wilmington
In discovering her husband, who de-
serted her in che fltheIiand some f-ur
years ago. She was Mrs. Karl Gu jahr.
The wOmanis story is most interest
ing. About four years ago Mrs. Gut
jahrs daughter came to America and
settled in Wilmington. She was soon
followed by her father, Karl Gutjahr,
ard the goss,ps of the Little German viii
lage where the Gutjahrs lived had il
pn2t father and daughter had eloped.
So believed Mrs. Gutjahr, but she car
ried her suspicious farther She vowed
that improper relations existed between
father and child.
Mrs. Gutjahr waited in vain fer a lct-
ter from America, but none came, and
this strengthened her belief that her
husband had eloPed. She waited four
years for a letter, but Gutjahr, knowing
that a letter would bertay his where
abouts, and that the missive would be
followed by his wife's visit to this
country, refused to keep his promise
many.
Father and daughter went to house
keeping in the southwestern part Of
| Wilmington. The daughter then mar
ried. Mr.. Gutiahr and his son-in-law
secured employment in Trump Bro
I theirs Machine Works, where they are
now employed. About two weeks ago
! Mrs. Gutiahr came to Wilmington and
went to the home CT her daughter, and
a scene followed. The daughter, when
confronted by her mother, demanded
the reason CT her visit, and followed II
up by ordering her from the house
Mrs. Gutjahr begged her daughter TO
allow her to rest, saying that she was
sick. AT the arrival the dinner hour
Mr.. Gutjahr walked into the dining
room and was met by his wife. There
was another scene. The traveller from
Germany was given to understand tha'
She could not stay under the same roo
with her daughter and she was giver
board at the home of Mrs. aMry Quinn
No. 4ls East Twelfth street.
Mrs. Gutjahr placed her case in th
hands CT ,he German consul Of Phna
delphia, Charles III. Meyer, and h
transferred the case TO Magistrat
Sasse, but as Gutjahr was willing Z
provide for his wife, the magistrate ma
! no jurisdiction in the case. cutjah
promised 10 give his wife 200 mark.
I which amounts TO s4S in America
I money, and agreed to pay her passap
S back to Germany. He was held to h
Z proposition by Magistrate Sasse, an
D she was escorted to Philadelphia an
) put aboard the ship.
Mrs. Gutjahr had a large bundle {
love letters in her possession whic
she said had been sent by her husban
y to other women in Germany Gutjal
I. now says that ne will go back to Gei
