ing. Gilmore says that man named
Rice is held under suspicion by him.
and that Rice, he reported, not only
took his money and wife, but some of
his little ones as well He has seven
children, but three of them are left
with him. It is alleged that the wife

an attempt to stop them and return

points, but up to a late hour last eve
ming, no response had been received.
A description has been wired Of Rice
and the party.
The trouble had it's beginning last

time ago, it was claimed, on a ship,
and had been given some work to do
by Gilmore. A short while since Gill

time but shortly afterward showed up
again. He did not work on the Gill
more place thereafter. Gilmore told
the officers that he believed that he
had been chloroformed, since he had a
feeling of some peculiar sort when he
woke up and found half of his family
gone. Then. ne said, he locked for his
money, some of which had been hid
den behind pictures, but not a cent was
to be found.
