A. STRANGE CASE.
Chicago Woman Attempts to Kill
Husband of Her Former Chum.

Chicago, April 27.-Love for her
friend, Hattie Leonard, young wo-
man with whom she had roomed for Is
years, caused Mrs Nettie A. Miller of
$50 West Van Buren, street to shoot
Charles L. Siebert, young real es-
tate man with whom Miss Leonard had
eloped and had married. Mrs. Miller
had repeatedly threatened that a
triple killing would take place if
Miss Leonard should wed. The threats
were ignored and when Mrs. Miller
met Siebert at Robey and West Van
Buren, streets she fired three shots at
him. One shot inflicted a serious
scalp wound, the other two went wild
and as the furious woman was dis
armed by neighbors she shouted:
BLOW my brains out like his" She
thought she had killed Siebert, from
whose forehead blood was flowing She
tainted and taken into the small
living rooms in the rear of the bak-
cry store run jointly for a long while
by her and her friend, who had secretly
become a bride. After she had re-
gained consciousness she was placed
under arrest and taken to the Des-
PLANES street police station, where she
was promptly bailed out by a promi-
nent north side man who signed her
bond for $4,000. Miss Leonard is a sis
ter Of one Of the proprietors of the

ed that he had been deprived of $3.50

cumstances. Wetzel made the remark
that it must have been taken by some
of the "bums'' that were around him.
Mrs. Lynch then went to the back
room and Immediately after leaving
she heard a pistol shot. Going into
the store she found her father dead.
Lynch was arrested charged with the

of insanity. Thirty-one witnesses we're

DEWEY AND COGHLAN
ADMIRAL SAYS THEIR RELATIONS
WE'RE MOST CORDIAL.
DIEDRICHS' NICE LETTER
German Commander Congratulates
Dewey on His Recent Promotion
Rear Admiral Answers That All of
Our Differences Were of Newspaper
Manufacture"

New York, April 27.-(Copyrighted
cable to the Evening World from Ma
Mia, April 26.)-Admiral Dewey was
seen today by a World correspondent
on the Capt. Coghlan incident. The
admiral is still unacquainted with the
details of the famous speech, but de-
clared that his relations with Coghlan
blegram from the captain Of the
Raleigh when that Warship reached
Algiers congratulating the admiral on
his promotion. Dewey is certain
Coghlan could not have said anything
calculated to place the admiral in a
false position. He showed the World
correspondent letter from Admiral
Won Diedrichs OF the German navy,
congratulating him on his deserved
promotion and also his letter in reply,
which closed with the words all our
differences were of newspaper manu-
facture.' Admiral Dewey also says
that he is on the most friendly terms
with Prince Henry of Prussia, who sue
ceeded Won Diedrichs as commander
in-chief of the German fleet in the
Chinese waters.
Coghlan Case Closed.
Washington, April 27.-The case of
Capt Coghlan may be considered as
finally closed. The German ambassa-
dor, DR.. Won Hollenben, called at the
white house yesterday afternoon, and
had a conference on the subject with
the president of such satisfactory
nature that the matter is regarded
as settled. The president explained
the course the navy department has
taken in administering reprimand to
Capt. Coghlan. 1t was also pointed
out that in the officers explanation OF
the incident he stated that his utter
ances had been much exaggerated. On
the part of the ambassador there was
every disposition to deal as lightly
with the matter as possible. During
the day the navy department admins
trede to Capt. Coghlan the reprimand
which had been determined upon Mon
day, as stated in these dispatches
This was in the form of letter from
Secretary Long to the officer. It is
stated at the department that the let
ter will not be made public before the
officer has received it, and probably
not then.

hours deliberation, disagreed and were
discharged by the court at 10 o'clock

ten for insanity and two for sanity all
through A F. Lynch was for several
years business man of Tomah. In

Wetzel of that place, his second wife.
For some years he has been addicted
to the use of intoxicants and in the
spring of 1898 his second wife secured
a divorce, in part upon that ground.
Lynch considered his father-in-law re-
sponsible for his trouble, and on June

inspection of the military has also
been ordered. Kruger, as he intimated
month ago, is evidently expecting
hostilities from England. The Dutch
men are uneasy over the result of the
petition to Joseph Chamberlain, Eng
lands colonial minister, signed by 21,-
900 English residents in the Transvaal
and setting forth their grievances.
Chamberlain's action, it is believed,
will mark crisis in English and
Dutch relations. The British army
here is being steadily augmented"

ment in the trial of Mrs. George was
in progress when the court adjourned
last evening. The day was without
special incident, so far as the accused
was concerned. Mrs. George sat all
day with downcast eyes and was oc-
casionally moved to tears, as the story
of her life was narrated. The court
room was thronged from early morn
ing to the hour of adjournment and
many who could not gain admittance
stood in the corridors of the court
house all day to get what they could
hear and see at long range.
