AID WAS REFUSED TO BOTH

ADELLA ELSIE CUPPER RE
cEIvED WARNING FROM HER
MOTHER NOT TO MARRY VA
RIAU-AN APPEAL FOR AID RE
FUSED.
Cyril b. Variau and his erstwhile
wife, Adella Elsie Cuppers, are still un-
der arrest at the police station, pend
ing a hearing of the former before
Judge Ball tomorrow morning.
Neither Of the couple appears to be
particularly satisfied with their posi-
tion, and their feelings were not en-
livened by letters received by each this
morning
Tn first epistle TO arrive was ad-
dressed TO A. c. Variau, and proved TO
be from Miss Cupper's mother, in New
York, in response TO a telegram sent to
her by the young woman.
The letter offered but little consola-
ton beyond stating that the mother
was sorry for the situation that her
daughter was in and advised her not to
marry Variau. She added also that
anything she could do for her daughter
In New York she would cheerfully ac
complish.
VARIAU'S LETTER.
Cyril b. Variau who is confined in q
rear cell at the police station, wal
brought out this morning to receive F;
letter from Buffalo The letter was
signed by Attorney W. II. Service. OF
Buffalo, and was i'm reply TO a tele
graphic appeal for financial aid, mad
to him by the prisoner. Mr.. Servic,
stated in his letter that IL was imp0s
sible to render the assistance asked a
the present time and Variau SCENE,
much disappointed.
The money he asked for was TO pa.
the S35 board bill which it is alleged H.
owes Proprietor Bothman, of tn
Clayton House. Variau says he vii
now write to his aunt, in New York 70
the amount.
The accused's hearing comes up 20
morrow before Judge Ball, and it
probable that both he and Miss Cup
pers will be held under bail for tn
February term of Court of General Ses
sions. Miss Cuppers viii probably b
retained as witness and unlcss eac
can give the required bond they wi
be sent to New Castle Jail.
