She owned property in Stonington and Pawcatuck, Conn, and had bank ac- count of $117. She also owned burial lot in this city, and had made provision for her burial. A short time ago a trunk belonging to the woman, contain ing $7O0, was destroyed by fire. Her death resulted from complications at tendant upon a fractured hip, two weeks ago, by falling down stairs.

It's effect will be TO show that Gov Ell

as being opposed to the metropolitan sys-
TEN on principle. and yet retaining 1t in
Charleston upon mere techncality.
Mayor Smyth includes in his report all of

He puts his side of the case, a side which
expresses the convictions of nine out of

ate, but very strong manner. The report
IS calculated to call forth a reply from

about whom a good deal of interest cen
ters. The testimony so far has made evil
dent that Latham has not kidnapped the
girl 1t has been chiefly of a character of
mother swearing against the virtue of her
daughter and vice versa. The girl alleg-
ed to have been Kidnapped swears that
she is voluntary resident of Latham s
house. She claims that he and his family
are her friends and protectors. The
mother swore that Latham had exercised
undue influence against her daughter, and
that at one time she found him in a COM
promising position with both of them The
evidence shows an unnatural state of af-
fairs but the opinion of those who have
listened to it is in favor of the girls limo
cence. Her mothers testimony has been
impeached by reputable witnesses, and
many believe her mind affected.
