1G in favor of julius Caesar Burrows
and against RoOsevelt's choice for tenn
pOrary chairman of the coming ma
tiOnal cOnventiOn-SenatOr Dolliver, of
Iowa.
According TO the story, when Presi-
dent Mellen hurried to Washington
and asked him what the meaning Of
the unexpected action was, Roosevelt
answered:
Just this. If you can't control
Brooker, l can't control the attorney
general"
The New Haven officials who heard
the story said it was the only explana-
ton they could reasonably accept in
view Of the fact that President Mellen
has always been regarded as ROOse-
velt's persona, adviser on railroad
matters, and the New Haven lines
have always apparently been operated
in a manner that met the presidents
approval.
The presidents defeat at the Chicago
meeting angered him intensely. He
was very confident that either his first
choice, Senator Dolliver, or his second
choice. Senator Albert J. Beveridge, of
Indiana would be selected as tempo
rary chairman of the national conven-
ton.

MYSTERY IN THE CASE.
WOMAN REFUSES TO TALK. BUT
1T is EVIDENT THAT SHE WAS

THE MAN.

Goshen, Ind. May 29.-Mrs, ]. y. Sar-
geant. who resides at Wawasee. was Ia
ken by force by w w. Patterson,
known as Cap" who operates a launch
on the lake Mrs. Sergeant was in
LigOnier. visiting at the home of DR..
Frank. and when she was taken was
enroute to Wawasee in a carriage with
the doctor. AS they reached the Ii
gonier city limits Patterson drove up
in an auto, stopped the rig, and at the
point of revolver compelled the wo-
man to accompany him. Then he
drove rapidly away.
With Patterson in the auto was
Landlord Hoover, of Hotel Goldsmith,
Ligonier He had been told by the
former, who represented himself as
federal officer. that the woman was
counterfeiter and he had warrant for
her arrest. Hoover claims 10 have
been completely duped by Patterson.
Between Lagonier and Millersburg,
the woman was chOked and almost
beaten into insensibility by Patterson.
her screams attracting the attention of
farmers along the route.
At Millersburg while the abductor
was using a telephone, the woman es-
capped and sought refuge at the home
of Charles Robinson. When Marshal
Won der Smith and deputies of Ligo-
nier. arrived. Patterson opened fire
and shot at them three times, one shot
taking effect in the leg of his brother
in-law, Attorney Ernest Frank, of Lii
gonier. Albert Erwin, a Ligonier sa-
loon man, then shot Patterson through
the heart, killing him instantly
The woman refuses to talk. and the
case is shrouded in mystery. t seems
evident that Patterson meant to muir
der Mrs. Sergeant, but the motive is
not apparent. Mrs. Sergeant had
been a guest at the home of DR.. Frank.
Mrs. Patterson and her husband sepa-
rated about a month ago. Mrs. Pat
terson and Mrs. Sergeant were init
mate friends.

John WeI|enkemp Would Not
Listen to Wife's Pleas to
Leave Saloon.
MAN is UNDER ARREST.
CHARGED WITH iNToxIcATION
THE MAN PLEAD NOT GUILTY
AND HIS CASE WILL BE HEARD
LATER.

Too much prosperity seems TO be at
the root of the trouble for John We'll
lenkemp a we'll known young man,
who has been conducting a jewelry
store and repair shop for some time.
He was arrested last night and this
morning charged with public intoXi-
cation. A plea of not guilty was en-
tered and the case was continued until
Monday morning. Bond was fixed at
$1C0. but Wellenkemp remained in Jail.
AS the climax to his spree, the man
was slapped about the face by his wife
in the Red saloon yesterday afternoon
It is said. She had gone there to in.
duce him to go home with her, but she
refused.
Mrs. Wellenkemp was formerly Miss
Nellie Murley Of Milton. She bears
splendid reputation in every respect.
Since her marriage, however her trOu-
bles have multiplied. it is claimed.
When she learned her husband was
drinking yesterday afternoon she in
stituted a search for him. He was To-
Gated at the saloon. Mrs. Wellenkemp
demonstrated and implOred but to no
avail Her husband was under the
influence Of intoxicants and became
very insulting in his treatment Of her.
She tried to pull him from the place
and upon his resistance, she slapped
him. This angered the man and he
threatened her with serious injury
Red" Beall, the bartender, interfered
and told Wellenkemp if he harmed his
wife he would have to suffer at the
hands Of others.
Other charges may be placed against
the young man. Complaint has been
made to the police that he assumed re-
pair work to jewelry and failed to
carry out contracts. 1t is asserted
watches were left in his care and not
returned until after an unreasonable
length of time and then not in working
condition.

RURAL CARRIERS
CAN NOT Be NOTAR|ES
Attorney General Bingham
Makes Ruling.

Notwithstanding that the postoffice
department has ruled that postoffice
employees where their duties will not
interfere with their work as postal en-
ployes, may be notary publics. AttOr-
ney General Bingham has submitted
an opinion to Fred A Sims. secretary
Of state, to the effect that a commits
sion as notary public can not be issued
to a rural mail carrier. The attorney
general says that the constitution and
laws of the state forbid a person hold
ing more than one lucrative public Of
flee at the same time. He holds that
both the office of notary public and
the position of a rural mail carrier are
lucrative offices in the constitutional
sense and therefore a rural mail car
rier is not entitled 10 a commission.
