Made a Tour of Europe.
Kelly was crestfallen when he
reached the police station. In an in
terview he said: Il was on NV way

The St. Louis Fugitive, Charles r.
Kelly, Lands at New York
From the Celtic.
JAMES BUTLER WAS THERE TO MEET HIM
The Police Given the Tip by n Re-
porter, But Kelley Gave Them the
slim and Took n Train at Jersey
City for Philadelphia, where He
Was Arrested.

st. Louis, Nov. ga New York spe'
cial to the Dispatch says:
Charles f. Kelley, former speaker OF
the house of delegates of st. Louis,
who fled from st. Louis to escape
trial on three indictments charging
bribery, was the first passenger to
land from the White Star line steamer
Celtic when she locked Friday.
At the pier to meet him was Con-
gressman-elect James j. Butler, of St.
Louis, son of Edward Butler, the for
mer democratic boss" of st. Louis.
Buffers bookkeeper, William j. Sulli-
van, and VIM. Ratigan, ST. Louis
contractor and neighbor of Kelly's,
were his ship companions.
The fact that Edward Buffers
bookkeeper and one of his intimate
friends were Kelly's travelling COM
panions, is significant in this connec-
ton.
He's Glad to Return.
''Where have I been? Everywhere.
The trip has been no rest for me.
will be glad to get back to st. Louis
and my wife, who is broken-hearted
over our boys death. I don't care,
now that the boy is dead"
Kelly's face was white and wrinkled
when he left the ship. He started
back as if struck when Post-Dis-
patch reporter greeted him by name.
Congressman-elect Butler tried to
shunt the reporter off, but Kelly rec
ognized him as st. Louis acquaint-
ance and extended his hand.
Congressman-elec Butler, when he
saw that the reporter knew Kelly, was
at some pains to deny that he had
come to the pier to meet him.
81 am here to meet our bookl1eeper,
Mr.. Sullivan. He went away some
time ago for his health
The reporter telephoned police
of Kelly's arrival.
Capt. Titus, of the New York de- |
tectiye bureau, hurried an officer to |
the pier when he learned that Kelly |
had arrived on the Celtic. When the
detective arrived Kelly and his party
had gone. Kelly, Butler and the 9TH
ers went to Jersey City, where they
boarded the 1880 train for Philadel-
ohia.
