A new SHADOW
EARCEY
Train Robber Said to Be Wanted
ii. Arkansas-7o Be Arrest
edthe Moment He's Free.

Scarcey, the train robloer, is wanted on
a, serious charge in Arkansas. This news
has just leaked out.-a there are some
striking things in connection with it.
Searcey will get his freedom by the eN-
piration Of his eight-years term May
Goth. But the minute he steps to the door
of the prison a free man an officer of Ar
kansas will, it is said. be waiting to tap
him on the shoulder and say:
lou are my prisoner.
One of the most interesting questions
is. does Searcey have any idea of this:
It may be that he has BE has been try
his term is out almost ever since lae took
up quarters at the penitentiayy. He has
asked three Governors to pardon him. ana
has been turned down by. each with q
regularity that probably has been very
monotonous to him. He was sent to the
penitentiary in 1895. He asked Colonel
sO'Fercall, when he. was Governor. to give
I MIN his freedom, but was passed on to
Major Tyler, who followed Colonel O'F'er-
rail-. And then on Wednesday Governor
Montague had the duty imposed upon
|. him of passing on his plea for pardon.
If Scarcey had gotten out at either Of
these three times he might have remained
for many years, probably until his death,
I. free man, but the chances are against
him now.
What the charge is on which he is
wanted in Arkansas is not known here to
any one but Major Helms, superinten-
dent of the pcnitentiary. The Major could

Government. No official statement has
been made at Washington, the news leak

That the reports are correct, however,
there can be little doubt. Relatives Of

city, his sister, while she has not heard
definitely of the matter, believes that the
report of her brothers resignation IS
true It is understood that Judge Kelley
will not return here, but will take up
his residence in London. England. where
he is Il member of number of clubs ana
where he is we'll known.
The position occupied by Judge Kelley
is an exalted one and is regarded as very
desirable. Already many applicants for
appointment have appeared
WE'LL REMEMBERED HERE.
Numberless friends and acquaintance in
this city remember Judge Kelley as {,
man of exceptional character. He is
a gentleman and a scholar. and his pow
erS of oratOry are well known. He was
prominent in local politics and was three
times Mayor of Richmond.
Judge Kelley was educated in the schools
of Richmond. He served with distinc-
ton in the Confederate war. and at it's
oil at ~ of
Virginia. For a while he taught school in
Petersburg and then became associa@r
editor of the Petersburg Index-Appeal
Subsequently he engaged in newspaper

short While ago is the probable, cause
of his resignation now.
When he came to Richmond to live.
Judge Kelley at once took interest in To-
cal politics. and in 1871 he was elected
Mayor of the city. a position which he
held until 1876. Afterwards he engaged
in the practice of law, until by President
Cleveland he was appointed Minister to
Austria. This latter position he never
filled. President Cleveland later appointed
Judge Kelley member of the Interna-
tional Tribunal in Egypt. In 1894 he was
promoted to the Superior Tribunal. or
Court of Appeals. at Cairo, where he has
been serving ever since.
A press dispatch from Washington
says:
Anthony NJ Kelley, Of Virginia who
for the past sixteen years has repre-
sented the United States on the Inter
national Tribunal of Egypt, has resigned
that office. His resignation is directed to
the Khedive of Egypt. who makes the
appointments to the tribunal upon the
nomination of the Powers party to the
