Mrs. Chesley Asks Police to
Find William Clark.

William Clark, who claims he is a
nephew of Speaker-to-be Champ Clark
is wanted by the Washington police on
a charge of obtaining money under false
pretenses =
The alleged nephew OF the gentleman

week at the house Of Mrs. Hattie Ches-
ley, 2G G street northwest. He was
accompanied by a young woman, who,
he said, was his wife. Last Monday,
Mrs. Chesley says, he asked her to ad-
vance him SO, saying he wished to go
to Baltimore to have a $50 bond Cashed,
and told her, she says, he would return
that evening. His wife remained at the
house. and as he was leaving the house
Mrs. Chesley says, ne called to his wife
that he would be back in time TO go to
the theater.
About 6 o'clock the wife went out. and
did not return. Mrs. Chesley. because
the young man was refined and talked so
much of his uncle who is to preside
over the next House of Representa-
tives, did not think anything wrong. But
when he did not return at noon yesterday
she notified the police and asked that
they locate the missing bOarder.
Mrs Lnesley said the young man was
about thirty-seven years old, five feet
ten or eleven inches in height. and wears
a gray ulster and soft hat. He has red
hair.

work of procuring quarters for the
home. A building in East Washing
ton and one on Congress Heights are
being investigated by the committee.
Mr.. Wynkoop said last night:
I'VE have long felt the necessity in
Washington for a home for inebriateS,
where proper treatment can be given the
unfortunate victims of a most obnoxious
habit. IN the hospitals there are so many
other cases that proper attention cannot
be given inebriates.
Maj. Sylvester, chief of police, has
given us assurance of his support, and
we feel certain our institution will be a
godsend to many unfortunates."
1t is the plan of the promoters to have
the home receive from the police re-
ports of all drunken men picked up in
the streets. They will take charge of
these men and treat them, with their con-
sent. and without charge.
Within a few days the names OF the
other two contributors to the fund will
be published.

cautioned to exercise greater vigilance.
Hope Almost Abandoned.
I'VE had about given up hope of find
ing her in this city said Lieut. Hartley,
night chief of detectives, when we re-
ceived word from Mr.. Agnew that she
was in the city
Last night special orders were given
policemen patrolling near Connecticut
avenue and Kalorama road to be on the
lookout for the woman.
Meanwhile the distracted husband is
doing all in his power to locate his wife.
Last night he walked over the neigh
borhood where she was seen until long
after midnight, but was unable to locate
her. The fruitless efforts to find his
wife have already impaired his health. He
went to the home of his father, Capt.
r. F. Knox. in Alexandria, on Wednes-
day, and was too ill to leave his~bed all
day. When he heard Mr.. Agnew had
seen his wife in Washington he got out
of bed against the advice of his physf-
clan and tramped the streets in an ef-
fort to find her.

CHILDREN NOT WITH HER.
The fact that Mrs. Knox was not ac-
companied bv her children, Conelia,
three years old, and Josephine, one year
old. puzzles the police. They say there
is a possibility that she is with friends
who are aiding her in her plight
When requesting the assistance Of the
police in his search for his wife, Mr..
Knox intimated that because OF a serious
operation upon her last summer, her
mind had been affected. For this rea-
son an unusual diligence on the part OF
the police was exerted to locate the
woman and her children.
Agnew says he saw Mrs Knox near the
kalorama road. He has known Mrs.
Knox for years and is an intimate friend
or her husband He did not know at the
time that Mrs. Knox was missing, and il
was not until he returned TO his home in
Alexandria that Capt R F. Knox. the
father-in-law OF the missing woman, told
him she had disappeared.
M. Agnew notified police headquarters.
and Detective Cornwall was sent to the
neighborhood where Mrs. Knox was seen
10 make inquiries. After several hours
