HATED To BE A BRIDE
Maggie HOel May Have Left
Home for This Reason.
MYSTERY STILL DEEP
STRANGE WOMAN WITH COACH
Is a CLUE.

Pueblo. Colo, Dec. 25.-The police
have failed thus far to unearth any
clue to the whereabouts of Maggie
Hoel. the young woman who mysteri-
oUsIy d. Sappeared three days ago from
her uncle's home near the city. The
impression is growing that she left of
her own accord. One theory is that
the girl fed to avoid her marriage,
which was to take place in two or
three months. Another is that she has
fallen into the hands of the proprietress
of some bad house. In either case,
however. it does not seem that Maggie
would have gone without either her hat
or wraps.
There is a possibility that the young
and well-dressed woman who was in
that vicinity IN a coach drawn by white
horses on the morning previous to her
disappearance had some connection
with the mystery. The house is in an
isolated place in the river bottoms,
surrounded by thickets, and the pres
ence there of a fine coach and richly
dressed woman is something very I'M
usual.

ALVORD CASE0N TODAY.
Amount Of Restitution VIII Be Made
Known.

New York, Dec. 25.-The trial of Corne-
Illus Alvord jr., defaulting cashier of the
First National bank of this city, is set
for tomorrow in the United States dis
rrict court. The amount of his defalca-
ton was 1854, eco
one OF the interesting features of the
trial and which in all probability win be
brought out by the United States dis
trict attorney, is the amount of restitu-
ton of the stolen funds made UP to this
tine The officers of the First National
bank have been reiicent on this point
ever since Alvord's arrival The sale of
his effects in his home in Mount Vernon
realized very little. Where the bank
really made good part of its loss was, it
is said, in the turning over of Mrs. Al
word 1ewelry. Their value has been es-
Ji--@ted at not less than Sl50000 and the
story goes that they were taken TO the
bank and placed in the custody of one of
the officers, who locked them up in a
strong box until they could be appraised
and sold How long these gems We're in
the possession of Mrs. AlVord is not
l--.n=.- 1t is said she has had them for
four years and that they We're presents
fro7- her husband. The whole story is
expected to come out before the prOsecu-
t1Cn closes its case.

DAY BRIGHT IN NEW YORK.
Weather is a Feature of the Holt
dav.

New York. Dec. 25.-One of the chief
features of Christmas day in New York
City and its vicinity was the weather.
Not only was the sky clear in all diTeC-
tions, save to the southwest, where
heavy clouds acted as a background
to the glorious sunshine but the rays
of the sun after 9 o'clock in the morn
ing were so genial that heavy wraps
were uncomfortable and furS could not
be endured except as fashion dictated
that they are the proper thing at this
season Of the year. In consequence OF
this almost spring-like weather, the
churches were thronged with worship
ers and the streets of the city were
filled with merry throngs of men, wo-
men and children, who left their
Christmas trees in their homes and got
cut for d breath of invigOrating air.
j is estimated that more money was
spent in Christmas gifts this year in
New York than ever before, and the
same IS true in regard to charitable
gifts. 1t was only because a. case of
restitution was kept hidden that the
unfOrtunates were not supplied with
Christmas cheer.
OF all the set Christmas feats that
of the Salvation Army at Madison
SQUARE Garden this evening was the
largest. A Dountiful Christmas dinner
was served to about 1900 persons, men,
women and children The cost was de-
fTayed from a fund Of about $4,000 col
lected by the Army, chiefly through
the kettles which for several weeks
have hung from tripods in various
parts of the city to receive contribu-
tiOns TO keep the Christmas pot boil
ing. All the afternoon 400 helpers
were busy laying the fifty tables and
preparing the food TO make good cheer
for this army from the city's poor, and
probably no happier Christmas crowd
could have been found in the city. Men
and women, drawn from all walks OF
life into the ranks of the Salvation
Army, were eagerly enjoying the pleas
ure of bringing Christmas cheer to
others. and one of the happiest Of this
400 was the grandson of the late Arch
bishop Trench of Canterbury, a new
/ recruit, who made merry as he peeled
potatoes.
Miss Helen Gould provided the dinner
TO the boys at the WOOdycrest santa
rum. which she maintains near Tar
ryt0wn. Mr.. and Mrs. Howard Gould
provided a Christmas tree loaded with
presents and served a dainty luncheon

CARTRIDGES IN VAULT.
Evidence Thought TO Throw Light on
Goebel Murder.

Frankfort Ky. Dee. 25.-One of the
clerks in the state auditors office, in

a cartridge box containing eight metal
patched smOkeleSs powder cartridges 3S-55
corresponding exactly to the bullet found
in the blackberry tree and (which was be-
Eeved to have passed through Senator

CUpAHY PONY FOUND.
Animal Used to Take Boy from His
Home.

Home.
Omaha, Neb., Dec. 25.-That the bay
pony at Pacific Junction, twenty-five
miles south of Omaha, found there Fri
day morning in the stable of Mrs. Bud
Mack. is the horse of the kidnapers Of
Eddie Cudahy. is firmly believed by the
police and the authorities down there
The horse was found after neighbors
had noticed q strange man coming from
the barn in the early morning. By
Identification on the part of Frank
Glynn of this city, it was proven that
the animal was not the horse which
was seen in Omaha, but as the animal
has been advertised under big head
lines and no owner found, 1t is be-
lieved to have been ridden across the
ferry at Plattsmouth by one of the
kidnapers. who slept in the barn over
night and left his horse behind. The
animal will be brought to Omaha.
Mr.. Cudahy expressed himself as
pleased with the progress Of the case,
and believes that the kidnapers VIII
be apprehended. Both Mr.. Cudahy and
the police have been receiving letters
from -ElOise T, who has been writing
from Cincinnati, asking why the police
think Pat Grove one of the kidnapeTS,
by what law he could be punished. etc.

anoIher TINS evening signed ElOtSe l.,
in which the writer tells me that the
men who did the KIDNAPPING are not in
Omaha: that we are on the wrong
track altogether. These letters were
written on the letter paper of the
Windsor hotel of Omaha, and posted
from Cincinnati. The writer makes no
attempt to open negotiations with me
for the disclosure of the guilty persons,
and I think the letters are written to
divert US from the right track. We
shall not pay any attention to these
letters -

New York, Dec. 25.-Congressman Ser

means committee. is in the city on his
way from Washington to spend Christ
mas at his home in Auburn.
One of the gratifying things 10 the eX-
oerienced observer of national affairs
said Congressman Payne, lis the growing
efficiency Of our consular service. A few
YEA ago the service was rather ineffi-
Gent and a consular post was looked upon
as berth for politician who wanted an
easy job. OF late years all this has been
Char~ed-
Our consuls are now probably the most
efficient in the world. Their reports on
r-----.-ot conditions and manufactures are
in many instances models of comprehen-
SiVe intelligence of the sort that is need
ed BY our manufacturers.
THE best testimonials of their excel
lence is the criticism in the leading cour-
tries Of EuTOCe that our cOnSuls tell too
much about The secrets of foreign manu-
features. This Is particularly true in
Germany. where the German press is
quite wrought up about the cIeVernesS
of many of our cOnsulS in getting hold
