THE STORY OF HER WRONGS
Sane, Mrs. Miller Is Held Seventeen
Years in Insane Asylum.

New York rk-Breaking the silence Of
years, Mrs. Elizabeth Miller, mother
of Ida May Miller Kuehn, the lost
Philadelphia heiress," today told for
the first time remarkable story of
seventeen years incarceration in an in
sane asylum, of inhumanities she suf-
fere1 at the hands of her husband, Of
estate Juggling, missing property, and
of an alleged conspiracy which has de-
prived her of approximately 800, 900.
She declares she was never out of her
mind, although she spent seventeen
weary years in an asylum in Norris
town, Pa. Her husband sent her there,
she says, because he wanted to get her
out of the way, and other persons inter
ested in keeping her silent tried to keep
her in the asylum after the death of
her husband.
Possessed of a fortune under the
terms of her husbands will, she has
received only 5000, she says, since his
death, and has had to work and save
to get along, receiving no aid from
relatives There is nothing about her
to suggest insanity. On the contrary
she talks fuently and gives every evil
dence of strong. alert mentality.

S. r. Johnson, negro, was in the

him again, when James Hully, white,
a bartender in a nearby saloon, struck
Johnson with stone and knocked him
senseless. James c. Maricol, white
man, who was witnessing the fight,
was struck in the head with a stone
and severely hurt. All the windows in
the stables of the American Express
Co. were broken. Johnson and num-
Der of other negroes were arrested.

THE POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT.
The Deficit During the Year Was Re-

Washington, Dec. 21.-A reduction
of more than s4,OOO,OO0, or 27S3 per
cent, in the deficit of the post office
department is shown in the annual
report of Edwin G. Madden, third as
sistant postmaster general. The postal
revenue for the fiscal year of 1906
shows an increase of more than $15,-
100000 over 1905, the greatest in
crease in one year in the history OF
the service. Receipts from all sources
were $167,932,732 and expenditures
$17S,449,77S. The gross deficit, includ-
ing losses by burglary and fires ano

ommendation for an increase on mail

recommends that ordinary postal
stamps be used for special delivery.

THE MACKlIN MYSTERY.
Masked Man Who Shot Captain Still
at Large.

Ell Reno, Ok, Dec. 24.-The masked
man who shot Capt. Edgar A. Mack
lin Friday night has not been found.
Detectives are at work south of Ell
Reno on the theory that the assassin
boarded a Rock Island train at Oar
mington Station, to which place he
was trailed by bloodhound.
A stranger arrived at Fort Reno Fri
day afternoon. In size he compared
favorably with the man who shot
Capt. Macklin. He said his name
was J. G.. Eubank, and that he was an
ex-convict who had served time in the
Texas state prison for counterfeiting.
Eubank was selling a book telling OF
his conviction and Imprisonment. He
told the soldiers that he was greatly
in need of money, and asked them 20
cents each for the books. Several sol
diers bought copies. Finally the SER
geant of Company B drove Eubank
from the barracks. He disappeared
and since then no trace has been
found of him.
No reward has been offered for the
capture of Macklin's assailant, but
money is being spent freely in an at
tempt to run him down. A hat of the
Twenty-fourth infantry, found at the
rear of Capt. Macklin's porch. I'M
doubtedly was dropped by the assas-
sin. This is by no means conclusive
that the man who shot Macklin was a
soldier These hats can be found in
the ash heaps of the garrison and in
Many men find a certain pleasure in
wearing discarded army parapherna

the motive was robbery and not re-

Society Intercedes for
Him.

New York, Dec. 24.-Even now, be-
fore Governor-elect Hughes has taken
Office, pressure is being brought on
him to grant full pardon to Albert
#. Patrick, whose death sentence
Gov Higgins commuted to imprison-
ment for life The Medico-Legal So
ciety of this city through Clerk BeI
its president, has sent an appeal for
Patrick to Mr. Hughes.
The society sent, too, the report OF
it's special committee, composed of
experienced embalmers and under
takers. The committee injected en-
balming fluid containing arsenic in
the right bronchial artery of cadaV-
er. The committee reports:
I'm the opinion of this body Albert
T. Patrick is innocent of the murder
of Rice; this committee believes that
Rice died from natural causes and
that Patrick should have full pardon
by the executive"
Patrick attended services in the
Protestant chapel of Sing Sing prison
yesterday and told the Rev. S. Jones,
the chaplain, that he greatly enjoyed
his sermon on Christmas.
Patrick has made a rough draft
of an appeal for full pardon, which
he will send to Mr.. Hughes when he

MISSISSIPPI RACE RIOT
GOV. VARDAMAN RUSHING SOL.
DIERS TO THE SCENE.
Was Waylaid by Negroes, Cause
of the Outbreak.

Columbus, Miss. - Reliable reports
received here tonight from Scooba
state that race riot broke out at that
place today, which resulted in the death
of five negroes. These were shot down
by infuriated whites, and it is believed
that this is only small part OF the
actual bloodshed in that general COM
munity since Sunday afternoon, when
Conductor Cooper had his fight with
negroes on the train near Wahalak.
halak are filled with the dead bodies Of
negroes, who have been lynched and
shot down by the mob that was looking
for George Simpson, one of the negroes
that assaulted Conductor Cooper and
the one who killed Officer John Brien
Sunday afternoon. Information is diff
cult to obtain, owing to the excited
condition of the public mind at Scooba,
but these additional facts have been
learned The sheriff of Kemper county
has wired Gov. Vardaman that the con-
dition at Scooba is critical and asking
him to send troops there under rush
orders to help guard the men who kill
ed the negroes, these men being under
arrest, and it being feared that their
friends will attempt to rescue them.
The outbreak at Scooba came shortly
after the troops had all left Wahalak,
and was caused by the affair of Sunday
and the Crawford tragedy of last night.
Conductor Harrison had some trouble
with a negro brakeman last Friday in
which he stabbed the negro. The lat
ter's four brothers laid in wait for Har-
rison, and when he stepped from
his special at Crawford last even
ing they shot him, inficting wounds,
from which he died today Before he
fell to the ground he killed one of his
assailants, and the others made off.
The two affairs coming so closely to-
gether inflamed the minds CT the whites
until they were desperate. This led to
the outbreak, which is so serious that
Gov. Vardaman is sending troops as
fast as he can to ScOoba and Wahalak
to keep down any further uprising.

MT. VESUVIUS CAVES IN
GREAT ERUPTION OF ClNDERS,
ASHES AND SAND.
Populous Portions of Naples Alarmed,
and Women Pray to the
Modonna.

Naples, Dec. 21.-Another portion
of the crater of Mount VesuviuS fell
Thursday, and caused a great erup'
ton of ashes, cinders and sand. 1t
was not preceded or accompanied,
however, by either detonatiOns or
earth shocks. For 20 minutes rather
heavy rain of ashes fell over Naples
and another portion of the orator on
the side toward Pompeii fell in.
The rain of ashes created consid-
cradle alarm in the more populous
quarters of the city. Women began
praying to the Madonna and the
saints not to visit them with another
punishment at Christmas time such as
came shortly before Easter, the time
of the last great eruption.
