Duplicity of q War Veteran Crops
Out After His Death,

LOGANSPORT, Ind, Aug. 2S.-The
dual life Of a once prominent farmer of
Cass county, was revealed today by
suit filed in the circuit court to quiet
the title to a farm.
In 1865 Anna F. WoodIlng, the daugh-
ter Of David Woedling, a rich land
owner of this county, married William
Marshall. q young man who had but
recently been discharged from the
army
Nothing was known of Marshall. and
he studiously avoided any reference to
his past history. He was industrious
and by the assistance of Woodling pur-
chased q. small farm. Fortune smiled
upon him and he became rich. ,About
ter years go Marshall was killed bv
the premature discharge of a blast
leaving wife and seven children. real
ana personal property valued at $50 900
and $4,000 life insurance
year ago the widow applied for q.
pension, but when the application
reached the department it was found
tnat another woman. Agnes Marshall.
OF Plttspurg, Pa, had applied for pen
Sion as the widow of William Marshall
The matter was placed i'll the hands of
a special agent of the department who
found upon investigation that the
Plttsburg woman was the lawful wife
of the veteran who had been sent to
glory by the dynamite route
At the beginning of the war he ioined
Pennsylvania regiment, leaving his
wife and two children at Pittsburg.
and as he never returned to her she
came to the conclusion that he had
been killed in battle, and after years
of weary waiting applied for pension.
The investigation of the pension
agent having been made known to her
she now brings suit to prove her title
to the property left by her husband.

and eight men of the Punjab infantry,
We're wounded.
The British post at Lakka was at
tackled yesterday. The Fifteenth Sikhs,
with two guns, were sent to reinforce
the garrison. but their advance was
stubbornly opposed.
There was heavy firing all last
night in the direction of the Sunna-
wari post, on the Samana range. Col.
Vaughan, commanding at Fort Lock-
hart, hearing of the large and threat
ening gathering of the Orakzais, above
Fort Gulistan, on the Samana range,
started to the assistance of the garrl-
son with $50 rifles. The colonel reports
that shortly before his arrival at Fort
GuliStan yesterday morning, recon-
noitering party under Maj. Desvouex,
who commands at Fort GuliStan, was
compelled to retire under fire. In ad-
dition, Lieut. Blair was severely
wounded while cutting off the enemy's
water. But the British force succeed
ed in driving back the enemy's pick
cts.
SERIOUS STATE OF AFFAIRS.
The latest news from the front IS
of not a more hopeful character than
that received the last few days, though
it is true the attempted raid on the
Kohat district has been repelled, and
that the Orakzais have taken to the
hills. But, against the temporary sue
cess of the British arms must be set
the very serious state Of affairs pre-
Vailing at Quetta, BeluchiStan. There
is little doubt that if the fort there
is attacked, the chances of the garrl-
sons safety are slight The fortifica
ttonS are practically worthless, and are
said to be inadequately manned. The
commander-in-ch cannot too speedi-
ly dispatch a relief force to Queeta,
for that place is almost entirely isolat-
ed.
Another note of alarm, and a rather
incomprehensible one, in view of the
gallant defense made in the cases Of
Fort Ali Musjid and Lundi Kotal
comes this morning from Jamrud, from
which place a dispatch announces that
the British military authorities yes
terday deemed it wise to disarm the
Kyhber rifles, forming part of the gar
risOn of that place.
The situation of the outlying garri
sons on the Samana range is next to
Queeta, the center of interest in view
Of the urgent need for reinforcements.
and Col. Gordon tomorrow will lead
a column of troops through the Kohat
pass into the Amana district.
News from the Anglo Egyptian eX-
pedition up the Nile comes slowly and
unsatisfactory, largely owing to the
absurdly stringent and humiliating
regulations of the British commander,
Sir Herbert Kitchener. The newspa-
per correspondents are not allowed to
mess with the officers Of the expedi-
ton, and are forced to take with them
six months supplies and sign the
slurring regulations drawn up by Lord
Wellesley during the previous cam
raign. They are not allowed to go to
the front. but are kept we'll in the
rear. and are furnished with just what
information the authorities please.
