give you an outline of the same. referring
you to the records of the federal court
in this city. The information which
give you herein is obtained from the
sworn bill oil complaint of one Mary J.
Williams of New York and from the
sworn affidavit of her counsel and atto'-
ney, James w. Purdy. Jr. OF South
Broadway. New York city. The com.
plainant. Mary J. Williams. is widow
p years of age, to whom Caryl was in
troduced by parties whose names it is
not expedient to mention here or their
friends and ramifcations either, all Of
which are known to the legal gentlemen
in the case. Said Caryl Informed me
when he met this lady he had not got a
dollar in the world and was fat on his
back and it was either get money out of
her or suicide, However, he didn't sui.
eide as we all know, otherwise he would
not have dared to plan on her money
BY means not to be disclosed at this time,
he succeeded in getting out of this old
lacy the enormous sum of $4,000, as
she swears on oath, for the purpose OF
acquiring and developing and equipping
with machinery these Wall Street prop
critics and more especially the Wall
Street tunnel. For this trifling sum he
gave her some paper called mortgage
bonds which were to bear interest at E
per cent per annum. The interest fell
due on January Is, 1909. and, as alleged
by Mrs. Williams, was not paid. but Ger.
tain further bonds were given to her as
collateral security. On July IS, 1899
further interest fell due and has not been
paid. Consequently she sent tor her at
torney to come from New York and look
into matters with the result that the
books of the company were investigated
and found to contain most remarkable
condition of affairs. According to the
statements of her lawyer who inspected
these books. and a copy of whose afi-
davit is at your disposal, up 10 Sep.
TENDER 1897 no books were kept at all,
but Ed ward St. John, the secretary of the
company, states that he then entered
Caryls services as secretary of the com
pany, and was instructed by Caryl to
credit Mrs. Williams with $4,000 cash
received up to that date, but gave no
account of its expenditure. To meet
this sum and make the books balance,
Edward St. John states he put an arbi.
trary price on certain mining properties
to that amount in the books. Quite a
trif1e you know. Mr.. Editor, how the
money was spent SO long as you have
got something to put down in your books
as representing it whether it was actually
acquired for that sum or not.
Mrs. Williams attorney also swears
that his examination of the books showed
sH,373 "a spent by Mr.. c. w. Caryl on
himself and family;'S7. 500 on property
now standing in his name and situated
in the vicinity of Denver, this property
was once transferred to the New Era
Union, but drtted back through various
Ichannels into the name of Charles w.

now remains there and plaster on it as

New Era Union: also So 864 ~ have been
spent on property in Eldora out of the
| funds of said company, such property
being in Mr.. Caryl's name and posses

/ few other such interesting items are
specified in said affidavit. In all it i.
claimed by the. lawyer OF Mis-. Mar,

these mines. but $4,000 have been usec
. for that purpose.
. 1t would be waste of time Mr.. Editor
, to conspire to effect any such purpose
, with such facts before one. Mr.. Charlie.
W. Caryl has given good deal OF pub
licity in Boulder to his action against hi.
{ victim of II years of age and my wlt
(who nursed her when she was smi,,el
with Paralytic stroke on discovering
, how she had been duped) and myself
who stood between her and this bene

thropist, charging us with a conspirac,
to bring about an action at law u re

wish that there was something of value
in the properties mortgaged to this lad,
that she might perchance secure some
