other.

NEW YORK, July l4.-Mrs. William
II. Whitney whose husband is under
observation in the psychopathic ward
at Bellevue for the purpose of test
ing his sanity. thinks that her hus-
bands mental collapse is due to the
fact that he found his picture in
book devoted TO the exploits of the
Twenty fourth Massachusetts regi-
inent drring the civil war with an
other mans name under it.
Whitney is under the delusion that
his regiment needed him at the front
now, and that he called for his drum.
and insisted that he must go at once.
He is held upon the charge OF keep
ing his wife prisoner in nat for
three days. denying her food and
threatening to take her life.
The wife said that he had been a
good soldier, starting as drummer
boy at Bull Run, and going all through
the war with the Twenty fourth Mas
sachusetts regiment. She said he was
devoted to the country, and when he
found his picture in a book with an
other mans name under IL he worried
over the matter.
