also damaged. The garrison is report

spite Its heavy losses November 2e and
subsequently, the garrison is said to
be cheerful and resolved to continue
the struggle as long as a single soldier
remains.
The army claims to have sufficient
provisions to last until February. The
navy possesses about one months

leagured fortress is high. Beef is a

Mrs. Bouton Had One Too Many
Husbands"
DETECTIVES UNEARTH CLUES
Dead Woman Known to Have intro
duced at Least Two Men as Her
Observation-Disclosures Can
not Locate Cigar Drummer.

Colorado Springs, Col, Dec, 2S.-A
number Of developments have been
brought to light by the detectives who
are investigating the circumstances Of
Mrs. Bouton of Syracuse, N. z. in con-
nection with the Mount Cutler murder
mystery.
1t has been learned that Mrs. Bouton
received the 5000 reported to have been
sent her by her family In Syracuse,
through telegraph company; that she
was in the city on october and at
various times up to October 20; that
between the two dates she did not
spend her time here but visited cities
in Colorado. The most important de-
velopment perhaps, is that while in
this city the latter part of october. she
was accompanied by man five feet
eight inches in height, dark complex
ion, brown moustache, heavy set, who
wore dark suit of clothes, black over
coat and derby hat, and whom she
introduced as her husband. She left
the city on the evening of October 20.
in company with this man. and the
officers have reason to believe he was
a travelling man for cigar company of
Chicago.
From descriptions 1t would appear
that the man Mrs. Bouton identifed in
Denver as her husband and the man
she introduced here are two different
persons.

struck Christmas morning. there Is
practically no change today in the con-
dition OF the steamer Drumelzier.
Tonight word was sent to Sandy

Drumslzier lies about three quarters

4 one Of great peril. She Is lying bow
on toward shore with her stern resting
on the bar. As she lies, ten seas are
breaking over her port side. but
westerly wind, which came up tonight,
shows tendency to beat down the

AT o'clock the wrecking steamer

stranded steamer and the Merritt's surf
boat was seen lying alongside the
Drumelzier. Whether she has taken Off
any of the steamers crew or whether
she is only standing by as precaution
in case the vessel goes to pieces can
not be determined from the shore.
During the day the steamer showed
no signals Of distress, nor did she even
use her whistle. although smoke and
steam from the tunnels indicate the
fires are stilI going.

London, Dec. 2s.--while numerous
statements have been published here
that United States Ambassador Choate
has decided to retire from the diplo-
matte service Of his country and re-
tire to private life In the United States
and rumors as to the cause have been
rife for long time In diplomatic and
social circles, II has been stated. as
from Mr., Choate. that his resignation
has not been rendered.
The statement is also authoritatively
made that he has addressed no COM
munication on the subject to President
Roosevelt, nor has he received any
request from the president or Secre-
tary Hay concerning his future plans,
II Is usual for the ambassador to the
court of st. James to tender his resig-
nation upon the approach OF the inaug-
uration OF new president, the same as
II is customary for all other foreign
representatives to do so, but there is
no reason to believe that Mr.. Choate's
Immediate reappointmeht would not
follow, as is, also, customary.
On the other hand, those close to
the United States minister state most
positively that 1t is his intention to
resign soon after the Inauguration OF
the president, Who the new appointee
then will be is, of course, not known,
but the appointment Of ministers to

such happy ones that no apprehension
