life; that he had existed as long as he
could on the proceeds of Miss Iohe
diamonds. and that he vas going to
commit suicide.
Lawyer Friend Is authority for the
statement that Strong inclosed in the
letter to his mother the key to the
safe deposit vault where he kept Miss
YOhe's jewelry, and also inclosed
large number OF pawn tickets. Mrs.
Strong and the ShattuCks are still at
LenoX, but they will return on Mon.
day, and Mrs. Strong will then turn
over the key said to be in her posses.
sion to Lawyer Friend.
The PinkertOn detective agency has
been retained to try and find Strong.
While IT Is not kLown definitely how
much May Yoke will lose. it is equally
difficult to estimate how much Strong
has squandered on the woman. Be.
yOnd $500 he Is said to have had when
he left no mention Is made by his rel.
atives to lead to the belief that he has
any estate. It is believed he lost the
tracks. Young Strong has been seen
at the races very much OF late. At
the Suburban he had Miss YOhe with
him. He bet heavily that day and lost
a big roll. He had Il habit OF taking
$1,000 with him each day and betting
5000 on each race.
Today Miss IOhe sent a Cablegram
to the man with whom she pawned
many of her jewels in Yokohama last
year, saying that she would be in that
city just as soon as the next steamer
would bring her there. Emanuel
Friend. the wOman's lawyer stated
that there was no arrangement for
Strong and Miss Hohe to meet again
at the other side OF the world.
The negotiations with the Strong
family were carried on with secrecy.
At 4:3O O'Clock Mr.. Friend. who had
been in communication with Hedges
earlier in the day, drove to the latter's
office W it'll Miss Yohe. Hedges there
said he was authorized by the Strong
| family to make a settlement, in return
!
drop all charges against Strong. Miss
Yohe was asked to state carefully the
value of the property Illegally taken
from her by Strong. At first the WON
an said that she thought the jewelry
Strong had taken from the safe deposit
vault was worth 100000. Hedges de
clined to figure on that basis. Then
Miss YOhe said that 1t was worth $3.50;
900 anyway, and settlement was then
reached.
Whatever the terms of settlement
were, they were evidently very salts

They came out OF Hedges office jubi

in smiles and she kept patting Lawyer
Friend on the back.

to the woman. Miss YOhe and FrienC
paid the pawnbroker an amount sale
to be $500. Immediately on leaving
the pawnbroker's Miss Yohe, will
Friend and the detective, drove to the
Sturtevent House, where they went
into cafe and ordered Scotch high
balls.
The belief that Strong has started
for Yokohama is based on a talk q
friend had with him one day last weel
in the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Strona
said then the way men cut and laugh
ed at him had become unbearable ant
he had determined to go to Japan
where ne had one or two business op
portunities.
A friend Of the family gave out the
statement today that when Strong ant
