Cleveland, O., Especial Unheralded
and uneinbarrassed by crowd Of the
curious the homecoming of DR.. Leroy
S. Chadwick was in diametric contrast
with the arrival Of his wife three weeks
ago. Both were underline charge of the
law, but under widely different circttrn-
stances.
Dir. Chadwick rode as man against
whom the people have no claim; Mrs.
Chadwick rode as a prisoner guarded
by federal officers. The early hour of
the arrival and the fact that but few
people were about at that hour made
the Doctors arrival home quite that OF
an ordinary traveller. No one was at
the station to meet him with the ex-
ception of Attorney Kerruisll. Even his
stepson, Emil, failed to see him until
o'clock Young Hoover had planned to
board the train at the Euclid Avenue
Station, but the train had come into
that station and departed before Emil
was aware of the fact.
Sheriff Barry, in whose company PR.
Chadwick was on the trip from New
York, chose to come to Cleveland over
the Pennsylvania Railroad The train
arrived in Cleveland at 7:3o A. NJ.
Scarcely any of the few at the station
knew Of the party, and the Sheriff
and DR.. Chadwick were quickly driven
to the county jail where DR. Chadwick
was registered as man against whom
the law has suspicion, but the record
was not made a part of the records at
once.
A bond provided by Attorney Virgil
T. Kline and Attorney Dawley was
ready at the Jail ON the arrival Of
DR.. Chadwick, and he was soon releas-
ed.
After the prlliminaries in the Shireff's
office Dr. Chadwick was escorted by
Sheriff Barry to the fourth floor of the
woman's ward, where his wife is held a
prisoner. The meeting between the two
was pathetic in the extryne. Mrs.
Chadwick arose when she heard the
steps in the corridor and fell i'll her hus-
bands arms when she recognized him.
Both broke down and wept convulsively
for several minutes while clinging to
each other, the Sheriff attempting mean
while to console them.
In that time all troubles that have
been hanging over the family like a
lodestone were lost in the joy of the
meeting and the thought of the mutual
sorrow. There was no artiiciality about
the scene. Genuine grief, genuine JOY,
intertningled. Real tears were shed,
and even the Sheriff was deeply affected.
Little by little the first shock grew less
severe and the two sat down for talk
that continued for an hour and half.
There were pleadings and partial re-
sponses when the more serious predica
fnent of husband and wife was at length
appreciated
D. Chadwick has lost his all in the
operations OF his wife, and the large in
dependent fortune of his only child has
been swept away Mrs. Chadwick tried
to Undue him with the thought of her
iiinocense Of any wrongdoing. His only
response to these pleas was Il hope So
The troubles into which both have
been plunged were thoroughly discussed
The wife told the story, intersperced by
violent fits of weeping, in which at
times DR.. Chadwick joined. There were
no apparent evasions, but there was a
constant cry of Trust me! Trust met
on the part of the woman.
Don't believe these stories. which the
newspapers have been printing about
me-" she said They are all lies, every
one of them. | have done nothing
wrong. Believe me, trust me; every
thing will come out all right in the end
and it will be seen that | have been
guilty of none of these things the public
charge me with. Don't think deceived
you. I will tell you the truth. and tell
You that all these reports are lies-lies :"
4 can only hope So" was the hus-
bands answer Il have trusted you,
and it is hard to believe anything, my
mind is so confused This has all been
such terrible shock, and | don't un-
derstand any Of it. want time to think
OF it. | do not say | won't trust you !;

thoughts Ever since heard of this
trouble in Paris. j have been bothered
and my life has been made almost UNI
