Special to The journal.
West Superior. Wis, May PA suit for
100000 in which the city and the Land &
River company are the principals will be
fought out at the June term of the circuit
court. The city sues the company, the heav
lest tax payer in the city, for 100000 on the
tax settlement made in 1898, alleged to be
fraudulent and illegal. The settlement was
made after the land company had failed to
pay its taxes for four years and had brought
suit in the United States circuit court to
have the taxes set aside and the city re-
assessed. The taxes amounted to about
$4,000. After the fight had been for some
time the attorneys fer the land company, the
city and the county agreed the taxes were
to be paid in bonds except about $4,000 in
cash, which payment was made and bonds
turned in for the rest. Now the claim is
made that the settlement was a fraud and
that there was no legal right to pay with
bonds. a---...s.-,.@

D'ESSAUlE|R'S TRIAL
A Cheap but Expensive "society
Leader Brought to Book.
GOOD sPENDER, BUT BAD MAKER
Forgery. Embezzlement, Etc, Done
by d Essauer to Keep UR
the Gait.
New York sa,, snecsal se-.ies

Chicago, May 27.-AKer a delay of more
than year George dEssauer, charged
with embezzling $4,000 is on trial be-
fore Judge Brentano. During his long
confinement in the county Jail d'Essauer,
erstwhile broker, clubman. society leader
and favored sutton of Helen Bertram,.
prima donna of the Bostonians, had been
hoping against hope that some of his
wealthy friends and relatives would come :
to his rescue, and make up the amount
that he is alleged toll have embezzled.x With
this hope he has had his case postponed
number of times. The state has here
tofcre acquiesced to the delays, as the
Van Noltthwith brothers. who are.,im-A
portant witnesses for the prosecution, live.
in Wisconsin, and until recently had
steadily refused to come here and tes--
tify.
Besides dissipating fortune that it is
said did not belong TO him, d Essauer has
broken the heart of his beautiful young
wife, by the attentions he paid to Helen
Bertram. Soon after arriving in Chicago
in 1896, he married Miss Lizzie Harvey.
a Well-knoWn society girl. His wife:
brought him dowery of 100000 which
he soon dissipated in keeping up their ele-s
CANT establishment at 50 Astor street He
had been married but a little over two
years when he met Helen Bertram be-
came enamoured of her and deserted his
bride to follow her about the world. His.
attentions to Miss Bertram and the gay.
| life he was leading on his journey with
her soon reached the ears of his wife.
Then came an inquiry into his business af:.
fairs and it was not until then that his
| alleged crooked work was discovered and,
his arrest in New Orleans followed. Be-,
sides the. charge of embezzling $40, $50
worth of notes, which he is said to have
disposed of for 1000, he isbalso accused:
OF obtaining $4,000 from DR.. Warren
Baker by forgery. 1t is claimed that he
| forged $4,000 worth of bonds of the gas
light and coke company of Evanston,
which he sold to DR.. Baker.
Throughout the examination of the ve-:
niremen and the cross exa mining of three
witnesses who testified yesterday AFTER
noon d'Essauer wore bored expression,
and several times made futile efforts to
| suppress a yawn. .-,-rs.> -NaN~ ::

III Des Moines, Iowa, May 27.---S. n. Rol-
land, who was formerly chief clerk in the,
office. of :Lctson Ballet; who is on trial
in the federal court: here on the charge of
using the mails to defraud, testified yes
to-day that the profits resulting from the
sale of the White Swan mining stock
amounted to $4,000 previous to June l..
1901. The government is confident 1t
can prove that fully $250,000 was taken in
from the sale of this stock.
A considerable portion of Rolland's tes-
timony vas devoted to the disposal OF the
money received from the sale Of stock:
He testified that Ballet had paid $4,000
for write-ups in. various newspapers.
These write ups, were largely Of per-
sonal nature, but had been paid for out
OF the money belonging to the company
C. E. Stewart, postoffice inspector, tes-
tilted that in February, 1900, he had
conversation with Ballet, in which the
latter admitted that he did not have any
title to the White Swan, in which he was
selling stock, but had enough money on
hand to close the deal and expected to
secure the title soon.
