STRANGE STORY OF WILLIAM v.
ALLEN WHO STUDIED ART

Descendent of the VanderbiIts in a
Sanitarium Nearly Six
Years.

New York, Nov. 25.-As result
of sensational claims of kidnapping
and unjustifiable imprisonment made
yesterday at New Rochelle by Viii
liam S. Vanderbilt Allen, great-grand-
son of Commodore Vanderbilt, Clar,
ence LeXow, an attorney, will have
doctors examine Mr.. Allen to deter
mine whether he is insane as his rel.
atives say, or sane, as he says, and he
will also make a thorough investiga-
ton OF all the charges made by the
alleged insane man, with the view
OF learning who is responsible fol
causing his six years Imprisonment.
The case is mystifying. kidnapped
by two supposed friends, rushed off to
private sanitarium at Westport,
Conn.,, held there for six years, dur
ing which time he was denied the
privilege of seeing anyone or COM
municating with the outside WQrld,
all because some one who claimed
relationship declared him to be men
tally unsound-that is the story which
Mr. Allen tells.
Mr.. Allen was born in Ohio in 1861.
He was the grandson of Mrs. Daniel
B. Allen, whose father was Commo-
dore Vanderbilt. At an early age he
was sent to Paris to study art, and
was the pupil of such masters as Mo-
net and Dagnan-Bouveret. He came
to New York about 1888, and was at
once chosen a member of the Society
of American artists. Shortly after
his arrival he went to LenoX, and
there for the first time he met his
wealthy aristocratic relatives. He
signed himself then as William Suli-
van Allen, but a short time later
adopted the name of William S. Van
derbilt Allen.

Don't mistake the cause of back

To be cured you must know the
cause.
It is wrong to imagine relief is

Backache is kidney ache.
You must cure the kidneys
A Pine Bluff resident tells you how
this can be done.

Gravesend. She reports having colhded
with and sunk the Spanish steamer

Spain, October % With the exception
of three members, the crew of the Enero
were drowned. The accident occurred
Friday night off Dungeness.
The captain of the St Regulus says
that when his vessel struck the E7nero-
he gave the order for full speed ahead
with the idea of keeping the two vessels
locked together and thus enabling the
crew of the Spanish ship to board the
St, Regulus, but either they were too
greatly alarmed to do SO or they failed
to understand his purpose and instead
OF climbing on board the British ship
they tried to lower a boat with the re-
suit that a number were drowned. The

Rejected Suitor of Daughter
Suspected of the Crime.

Chicago, Nov. 3.-A dynamite bomb, the
weapon of an assassin, blew up the home
of Joseph Kordeck in Chicago Heights,
killing two members of the family out
right and injuring several others. The
house was set on fire and burned. while
that of a neighbor caught fire and was
also destroyed.
The dead:

blown to pieces.
The injured
Mrs Lucy Kordeck, flesh blown off right
side, injured internally; may die.
seven children who escaped were injured,
but not seriously.
The explosion occurred while the family
was asleep. The father and mother, with
the daughter, Lucy. occupied room in
the front of the cottage. On the other side
were rooms occupied by the rest of the
family The cottage stood two feet from
the ground on wooden posts. The bomb
was placed under the room occupied by the
parents and the impact of the explosion
tore hole in the floor, blew the bed to
pieces, dismembered Kordeck and shattar-
ed into fra gments the body of Lucy who
was sleeping with her parents. Pieces of
flesh the size of a mans hand were the
largest remnants of the child's body that
could be found The force of the explO-
sion was directly upward and tore a piece
of flesh from Mrs kordfcks side and
aroused the rest of the family and they
had hardly time to escape from the flames
which soon destroyed the cottage. Kor-
dicks body torn to shreds, was found in
the debris after the fire.
Charles Smith, former boarder at the
Kordick house, who was paying attention
to one of Kordick's daughters. has been
arrested charged with the crime. The
Kordick girl was to have been married
to another man next week. Smith de-
clares he is innocent, but neighbors declare
that he made threats that if the girl re-
fused to be his wife he would blow up the
entire family with dynamite Smith was
absent from his room at the time OF the
explosion. His roommate, Thomas Kobilin-
ski, claims that Smith returned to his
room greatly excited shortly after the ex-
Dlosion.
