MRS. COOKS $1,000.
lost !! in Park at Lewiston. Found on Joseph
Chase in Freeport.

Lewiston. Me. July 50.-The mystery
surrounding the Mrs. Ansel Cook case,
the woman who was found in City park
at about II o'clock Monday night. in a
supplied condition. has been partially
if not wholly solved.
AS soon as the woman was made
comfortable at the station, Acting
Capt. Mottram started out on the case.
He learned her name and place where
she was stopping in Lewiston. Officer
Mottram and another or the police
then went out on City park and search
ed carefully for the money that Mrs.
Cock said was missing. a sum of about
$1,000 They failed to find it and then
the evidence was pretty strong that
the Other gentleman" knew some
thing about the case. The man whom
the officers were DESTROYS of interview
ing was Joseph Chase. Where he was
they did not know but they proposed to
find out.
At about IL o'clock in the forenoon.
through instructions sent out from the
Lewiston police station Constable j. r.
Gould of Freeport. arrested Chase and
took him to Lewiston. arriving here
a. noon Chase told a good story saying
that. Monday night, he and Mr.. Cook
partook of some nice whiskey and got
to feeling gay. He also said that Mrs.
Cook took drink or two.
While on the park it is alleged that
they both partook Of the contents of
Ionynecker. Then just before the Pull
man left Chase started for the station.
He took with him one of Mrs. Cooks
pocketbooks which contained quite a
large sum of money. and which chase
claims was intrusted to him for safe
keeping.
Mrs. Cook tells a different story
about the money. saying that the last
she can remember she felt heavy
blow on the head and when she awak-
ened to her senses she found part or
her wealth was missing.
Chase is now at the police station
and will be given a hearing. tomor-
row. Mrs. Cook is addicted to the NOR
phine habit, it is alleged. and it is
thought that this. together with the
yhisxcy. was the cause of her illness.
and that she was not drugged as was
first reported.

Sec. Long Leaves Washington Tor Home
Where Is Schiey's Letter?

Washington. July 3O.-Secretary Long
left, today, for his annual vacation.
which will be spent in New England.
Until the return of Assistant Secretary
Hackett, Admiral Crowninshield, chief
OF the bureau of navigation, will be
acting secretary of the navy.
Admiral Sch!ey has already begun
the preparation of his case. At his re-
quest James Parker. his assistant
counsel. today. made application to the
department for permission to examine
the logs and official records in connec-
ton with the movements of the ships
on the south side of Cuba. and this
permission was granted. Mr.. Parker
was given access to these documents
and was examining them. today.
Both Admiral Dewey, the president
of the court. and Admiral Benham
were at the department, today. The
latter formally acknowledged the re-
ceipt Of the order of Secretary Long
detailing him on the court. There is
no position of acceptance OF such a
detail where an officer is physically able
to serve and Admiral Benham expects
to be present when the court cOnvenes.
Sept. T.
When the navy department closed at
4 o'clock this afternoon. Admiral
Crownnshield. acting secretary of the
navy, said he had not seen the letter
which Admiral Schley wrote to the
secretary of the navy, acknowledging
the receipt of the court of inquiry pre-
cept and making certain suggestions in
reference thereto.
Capt James Parker, the ex-naval
officer who is acting as assistant coun-
sci in the case of Admiral Schley. says
that the letter was mailed to Secre-
tary Long at o'clock Sunday even
ing. Capt. Parker says that he himself
deposited the letter in box in the
general post office. In the ordinary
course of the mails the letter should
have reached Secretary Long, yester-
day morning.
The supposition at the department is
that if Secretary Long received the let
ter he took it with him on his departure
from Washington. this morning, with
out making its contents known to the
officials of the department.
1t is certain that the letter of Ad-
rliral Schley comments upon the fifth
specification of the precept and. it is
believed. makes certain suggestions re-
garding it. Mr.. Parker will remain
here several days to complete his ex-
animation of the official papers bear
ing upon the matters which will come
before the court.
a letter has been received at the navy
department from Admiral Kimberly
asking to be excused from the Schley
court of inquiry on account Of the
state of his health. The admiral is I'M
derstood to be suffering from heart
trouble. The application was placed in
the hands of Secretary Long. who will
dispose of the matter from his home in
bingham, Mass.
