FEARS HE
 WILL TRY
 TO KILL HER pr. Kienborts Charged With Being Insane. ACCUSED BY HIS WIFE SHE CLAIMS HE IS A SLAVE TO THE COCAINE HABIT. A Grizzled Veteran of the Civil War Locked Up m a Padded
 Cell in the Insane
 Ward.
ACCUSED BY HIS WIFE
SHE CLAIMS HE IS A SLAVE
 TO THE COCAINE HABIT.

pr. D. Kienborts, a gray-haired veteran of the Civil War, is locked up in padded cell in the insane ward of the Receiving Hospital. Yesterday morning his wife, who lives at 301a Twenty-eighth street, went before Superior Judge and swore to complaint charging him with in- sanity.
 According to her story, she was forced to leave her husband some time ago, as she feared that he would kill her. She also declared that he was addicted to the use of cocaine and likely to commit mur- der when under the effects of the drug Mrs. Kienborts further stated that she had received a letter from her husband dated Stockton, in which he said he had grown tired of life In Stockton, where he went last March, and intended to return to this city. Thinking that his object in coming here was to wreak physical vio- lence on her Mrs. Kienborts concluded to have him arrested for insanity.
 A Deputy Sheriff. who was intrusted with the warrant, learning that Kienborts to find him. After considerable trouble he. located him in friends house at 311 Broderick street, and placed him under arrest
 Kienborts offered no objection and was taken to the insane ward of the Receiv- ing Hospital and placed in padded cell
 When spoken to by one of the doctors Kienborts denied that his mental facul- ties were impaired.
 This is a job to get rid of me- he re- marked. 'I am not crazy. They want to get hold of the little pension I draw every month, and to accomplish their purpose they have conceived the bold plan of hay ing me sent to an insane asylum
 Last March separated from my wife and went to Stockton, where I practiced medicine. Longing to see my wife again, I wrote her that I intended to return to this city. Why she should have me ar rested for being insane is beyond my com prehension.
 Tt is true that I have used cocaine but not to any great extent. Frequently. when suffering from pains in the head, 1 would dip piece of cotton in a solution of the drug and apply it to my nostrils. It is ridiculous to say that I am a slave to cocaine. I intend to vigorously resist any attempt to have me sent to an in- sane asylum, and will show the commits sioners that I am being persecuted solely for the purpose of forcing me to surren- der the little pension I receive as a vet eran of the civil war
 The doctors at the hospital are unani- nous in their opinion that Kienborts Is sane.

Carroll Johnson loomed up as we'll in white at the Grand Opera House last night as he did in black at the Orpheum two weeks ago.

could not be confirmed, and at a late
hour the Journal received a dispatch
from the jefe pOlitico, at Chihuahua,
stating that so far as known Gillett
was not in custody there.
NJ. A. Fyke. attorney for the COM
mission company was asked further
last evening about the case.
"Gillett is under arrest in Mexico"
he said, land an officer has gone after
him. He is in custody, and we will get
him back, we hope at an early date"
How was he lOcated?"
when he left and was known to have
gone to Texas, the commission men
wired the fact that he was wanted to
all of their acquaintance along the
Mexican border and through Mexico
and he was recognized by one of them
who knew him. He was very well
known to the stockmen of the south
west"
THE police claim they know Of no
man having gone after Gillett," was
suggested to Mr.. Fyke.
THAT is correct; they know nothing
of it,
''The Pinkerton agents deny all
knowledge of it also,'' was further sug-
gested.
THAT is also correct, but an officer
with ample authority has gone after
him. Mr.. Fyke said with a smile.

positively that Gillett is not in Mexico,
but that he is in custody on American
soil, that he has a large sum of money
in his possession and that his captors
are negotiating with his creditors here
to exact a stated percentage of the
money as their price for turning Gillett
and the funds over to his creditors.
