An Interesting Story Shown IN n.

"A" interesting Story Shown to Be
without Foundation.
Inc Army and Navy Journal recently
printed a story, which was reprinted by
Inc Star, about the disappearance of Major
hocke1eller. The Army and Navy Register
denies the story in the following terms:
Inc daily papers have been publishing
most weird and uncanny story, which ap-
peared originally in Detroit journal, at
tempting to explain the disappearance of
Major Charles M. Rockefeller of the 9th
Infantry. That officer has been dropped
from the rolls of the army, and it is the
commonly accepted belief at the War De-
partment that he was murdered by the Fill
lplnos The story to which we allude.
however, has it that the officer is rowing
through one of the Asiatic countries in
dlsconsolate frame of mind 1t is related
that in 1872 Major Rockefeller was ordered
to China on duty, and took with him his
wife and their little son. While at Hong
Kong the Chinese nurse disappeared with
the baby. The newspaper yarn reproduces
certain documents purporting to show that
the boy was placed in Catholic institution
at Hong Kong and was finally adopted by
a wealthy gentleman" named Henry STAN
nope, who gave his ward the name of Paul
Stanhope. 1t also appeared from the docu-
ments that Paul Stanhope had left China and
had thrown his fortunes with the Fiipinos.
Before all this came out however the young
man had been killed in the Philippines in
one of the engagements, by Major Rookie
Teller. The whole story was very cleverly
tod. 1t is the baldest fiction from begin
ming to end, but the art shown in the fabri-
cation is the only thing which spares the
production from being condemned AS a
matter of fact, Major Rockefeller was
never married. He not in China in
1872. and was on duty in this country dur
ing that year and for several years before
and after 1872. When we first encountered
ING tall iSyrn rp1 hint
have encountered it since in various papers
