A GROWING MYSTERY.
II Is Believed Thai Mrs. Kaufman Straycd
Away,

IT Is Believed That Mrs. Kaufman Straycd
Away.
The case Of the old and friendIess
blind woman, Lizzie Kaufman. is grow
ing more mysterious, and all efforts of
County Auditor Davies to locate her
friends n learn where she came from
have so far been u%navailing. 1t be-
gin to look as II she had strayed away
from her home somewhere and was try
ing TO prevent her friends from finding
her, n that she probably escaped
from some institute or asylum. or was
purposely set adrift by people who had
grown tired Of her and wished TO get
rid of her. She has told the officers
so many different and contradictine
stories that II Is lard TO pick truth
from any Of them. What appeared 10
be the most plausible story was that
she had lived with her sister al Day
ton, Ohio, until about six weeks ago;
that her sister died, leaving her alone.
and she then started out TO find an
adopted daughter in Seattle, but learn
ing that she had moved 10 Idaho, she
came to Butte in the hope Of finally
reaching a sister living somewhere be
low Ogden, I'm Utah. She said that her
son had died some years ago, leaving
her IS. 900 in insurance. from which she
has been drawing the Interest. She said

Ohio. was her guardian. under her sons
will, and had charge of her money. She
said Mcclure was a congressman, n
gave Mr.. Davies the name OF the street,
the number of the house I'm %enia In
which Mcclure lived. and the number
OF his postof1ce box Saturday MIR.
Davies telegraphed to Mcclure at
Nen1a regarding the old lady. Yester-
day he received a reply from the tele-
graph operator al Xenia that the mes
sage was undelivered, as no such per-
son as William c. Mcclure lived In
that city, or was known there. The
old lady Is still AT the Sisters hospital
After being taken there on Saturday
she informed one Of the sisters that Mr..
Davies was going to telegraph TO Mr..
Mcclure. and added the significant
remark that the telegram would never
reach him. She claimed that she had
relatives living in Boulder. and wanted
to be sent TO that place. but when
pressed she could give no names Of her
alleged friends and relatives there. h
whereabouts OF her sister, Mrs. HooN-
er. in Utah, is also very uncertain, II
such a person exists at all, sometimes
she says Mrs. Hoover lives about II
miles below Ogden, and again she says
she lives about so miles from Ogden,
but cannot give the place OF her resi-
dence. 1t is probable that the auditor
will send the old lady to the poor house
until something definite can be learned
about her. despite her threat TO commit
suicide II she were sent out.

Assault and InferferencA.

Edward Williams and George Smith,
employees OF Stromberg's warehouse In
South Butte. were arrested last evening,
the former charged with assault In the
third degree and the latter with interfer-
ing with IN of1cer. II appears that the
Indians who make their residence at the
city dump are in the habit of hanging
about the warehouse, stealing fruits, veg
etables. etc. Yesterday a squaw purloined a
watermelon. or attempted to, and the
warehouse dog took a large mouthful out
of the feshy part OF her anatomy. She
complained TO officer Sheehy that VIII
liams had set the dog on her, and the Off
Ger placed williams under arrest. Smith
tried to talk the officer out of taking VIII
liams to jail, and was arrested for inter
fering.

other suit brought In the district court
yesterday by Attorney j. NJ. Hinkle
against Mabel Ludwig and her sister.
Kate Forschler. the Praham Dry Goods
company and Constable Tim Harring-
ton. Hinkle appeared as attorney for
Mrs. Iudwig i'm her various suits for
the possession Of the pictures and won
the case for her. He claims there is
800 due him for his services and that
he filed a lien against the judgment for
his fees. subsequently Mrs. Forschler
set up a claim to the pictures on ac-
count of some alleged agreement h
had with Mrs. Ludwig. Then the Prah-
man Dry Goods company sued Mrs.
Ludwig and attached the pictures and
got Judgment for $3.50. and Constable
Harrington held the pictures under the
execution. Mrs. Forschler hen sued the
constable to recover the pictures under
the allegation that they belonged to her.
and now Attorney Hinkle asks the court
to declare his lien to be prior to all other
claims against. and that his lien be or
dered foreclosed.

LIBEL CASE DISMISSED
Wenrich Made a Complete Re-
traction of His Charge.
HE TAKES 1T ALL BACK
Says the Shocking Article Against the
Character OF Mr.. johnson Was All
False-Mrs. Ludwig in Trouble
About Her Pictures.

The criminal libel case against ]. P.
wenrich. which had been set for trial
in Judge Clancy's court yesterday. was
dismissed. when called UP in the morn
ing. on motion OF Chief Deputy County
Attorney Connolly. The defendant and
the prosecuting witness. Or. A. w.
johnson, had reached a compromise 10y
wenrich making a complete retraction
and signing a paper to that effect. which
was drawn UP in the presence Of and
witnessed by Mr.. Connolly and Deputy
Yancey. The law provides that In cases
OF a misdemeanor, under which head
libel comes in this state, IL the parties
settle the matter by compromise the
prosecution shall be dismissed.
In August Of last year Wenrich was
publishing the sensational weekly, called
the Sunday Mercury. and printed a
shocking story rejecting on the moral
character of DR.. m The retrac-
ton signed yesterday, and upon which
Or. johnson consented to a dismissal
OF the case, says the publication and
the information upon which II was
made were false. The retraction is to be
published In the Argus. the name Of the
paper now printed by Mr.. Wenrich, and
reads as follows.
Doubtless many readers OF the Ar
gus, who were In the city at the time,
remember a certain article which ap-
peared IN the Sunday Mercury. which
was formerly published by the editor OF
this paper, which contained q very dam
aging statement concerning DR.. John
con, the well-known Owsley block m
Net, and which we thought At the time
90 be true In every detail. and pub
lshed, as we thought, for the good NOR
ab Of the community. After hearing the
testimony OF the witnesses al the pre-
liminary examination we were convinced
of the falsity of the accusation. and be
lieve the same was prompted by malice
on h part of our ~informants. who, we
afterwards learned, were not on good
terms with the doctor at the time. We
take pleasure in hereby seeking to vi
DO, IN so far as we are able, we
believe TO have been a great injustic,
that was done to DIR. johnson in tht
publication OF the article which appeared

thereof. Thk retraction is voluntary
and unsolicited on the part of DR.. John
