RESCUES PATRICK
Millions Of John 7. Milliken at
His Disposal
Beautiful Widow Of Houston, Texas,
Won Heart Of Millionaire Mine
Owner.
OVER MILLION IN THE CASE

New York, Dec. Elf one lesson
Is taught by the Communication OF the
sentence Of Albert Patrick. II Is the
value of persistence, especially when
persistence Is backed by money. The
energy and ingenuity OF the convicted
lawyer would not have awaited him
had II not been for his unlimited
call upon the millions OF John T.
Mllllken. formerly OF Paducah. now
OF st. Louis.
Patrick owes his life 10 romance.
Mrs John r. Milliken is his sister.
Through her Milliken became inter-
ested in the Patrick case. Mrs NIL
ilken was a beautiful widow in Texas
ten years ago. Mr.. Milliken, who Is
a manufacturer OF chemicals. spec
ulator in grain and owner OF mines
and railroads and various enterprises
had an interest in Texas that called
him 10 Houston where he met her
and fell In love at first sight. After
a short correspondence eourtship he
won one OF the prettiest women IN
the south He built a fine mansion
in the Cabanne section OF ST. Louis.
She induced him to aid her convict
cd brother. Mllliken accompanied
by his wife trave'ed thousands of
miles in Patrick's behalf and spent
$500 .0OG. The county spent $780,
GOO and the Rice heirs spent hun
dreds of Thousands. II Is altogether
safe TO say the expenditure on all
sides reached a million dollars.
But the fight could not have been
made but for the romantic meeting
between John T. Milliken aud Pat
rick's sister.

James YarbrOugh's Disap-
pearance Mysterious
Supposed TO Have Gone to Eleventh
and Broadway Late Wednes-
day Night.
THAT is LAST HEARD OF HIM

Without any apparent cause for
leaving his home, James Yarbrough,
living at 326 North Third street,
night Waterman for the Langstaff-
Orme Manufacturing company, has
disappeared and his whereabouts are
not known to his wife. He left home
Wednesday evening ostensibly to go
to his work. and his failure to re-
turn yesterday alarmed his wife who
notified the police.
1t is thought that he may have
gone to Memphis. Before his mar
riage to his present wife, he was in
the habit of making frequent trips
to that city. Yarbrough is 5 feet G
inches tall, blue eyes, dark complex
Toned, wore a striped brown suit.
black satteen shirt, and light over
coat.
The last word his wife had from
him was Wednesday night between
IL and IL o'clock when he telephon-
ed that he. was going out to Eleventh.
street and Broadway to get cheese
sandwich, and giving as his reason
for such an out of the way trip, that
the down town places were closed
up From the mill, If he was there,
to Eleventh street and Broadway, is
over a mile.
Inquiry at the Western Turf sa-
loon, where he was accustomed to
get his liquor, brought out the fact
that he was in that saloon between Z
and s O'Clock Wednesday night and
purchased one pint OF whisky.
Mrs. Yarbrough has one child. a
boy nine years old by former hus-
band. She says that Yarbrough al
ways was a good husband, spending
his leisure hours largely at home.
There was not the slightest domes-
tic trouble in the family. His leaving
will fall heavily on his wife who has
no means of support at present but
his earnings. There is a small amount
due him at the mill, but this has not
been paid. pending developments.
