as Husband Attended
Grand Jury,

When her husband, Arthur H
Frogg, of Wolf Lake, Union county
Illinois, yesterday filed petition fol
writ of habeas corpus against Mrs
Palmlee Frogg, it became known that
the wife had left home several days
ago with the couples two children anC

Mr. Frogg is a farmer living al
Wolf Lake. Several days ago he was
forced to go to JOnesboro, Ill, where
he was summoned to serve on Fed
eral Grand Jury.
In his absence his wife packed a
few articles of personal apparel, hired
a livery rig and with her two children
drove to East Cape. She crossed on
the ferry boat and came to the Cape,
where she has been staying since.
On Frogg's return to his home he
was told that his wife and children
had departed sometime before. He
began an investigation to learn their
whereabouts and eventually found that
they had made the trip by driving
cross-country to East Cape.
He came to the Cape and after con-
siderable inquiry found where his wife
was staying with his children.
One of the children is three years
old and the other is an infant in arms.
He went to Judge Hays and asked his
legal aid in obtaining custody Of his
children. The Judge thereupon made
the petition to the court which was
filed yesterday afternoon and Judge
Snider will hear the case in special
session.
The father declared that he does
not know any reason why his wife left
their home at Wolf Lake, and declared
his chief interest lies in getting his
children back He. has not called to
see her since he arrived in the Cape.

.SNIDER Will HEAR
MERRlWETHER CASE
c. G. N. Blocks Improvement
Measure With Change of
Venue Motion.

The legal condemnation proceedings
for the improvement of Merriwether
street from Aquamsi west to Fred
erick street will be conducted before
Judge John A. Snider in the Common
Pleas Court under change of venue
from the Circuit Court which was
taken yesterday when a hearing was
held before Judge Frank Kelly.
The change of venue was taken on
the motion of Attorney John A. Hope,
representing the Cape Girardeau &
Northern railroad, one of the property
owners abutting on the street which
it is planned to Improve.
On Senator T. F. Lanes request the
case was sent by Judge Kelly to Judge
Snider's Court.
Some time ago Mr.. Lane, attorney
for the city in the case, filed a petit
ton in the Circuit Court seeking to
have board of commissioners named
by the Court to assess benefits and
damages in the district that will be
affected by the improvement. When
such benefits and damages are assess
ed under the jurisdiction of the Court,
the condemnation may go ahead.
The measure pending provides for
grading the hump out of Merriwether
street west of Lorimier street, paving
the street and building sidewalks.
The railroad has opposed the i'm
provement and last fall endeavored to
get up a remonstraHce against the
pavement petition, to be filed with the
city clerk; but the hackers of the petit
ton were unable to obtain sufficient
signers to constitute a valid remon-
STRANGE.
Judge Snider will take up the case
at a special hearing within a short
time and probably before the next
regular term of court.

VANDIVER TOSSES
HAT OUT OF Ring
Democrats in Cape Who Endorsed
Him for Governor Are
Flabbergasted.

w. D. Vandiver, who was Endorsed
for Governor by the Democrats of
this county at the convention held in
Jackson two weeks ago, has decided
that he will not make the race. In a
letter yesterday to DR.. w. c. Patton
and several other acquaintance in
this city, he stated that he would not
run, because the Democrats of Mis-
souri, had Endorsed the administration
of Governor Major.
It is understood that Vandiver will
turn his following over to Joseph W.
Folk, who plans to run for a second
term as Governor.
Some of the local Democrats are
sup a tree" over the action of Mr..
Vandiver. Having Endorsed the St.
Louisan, they do not feel that they can
go another candidate, because they
fear they would not be wanted.
Vandiver was condemned in certain
quarters yesterday for getting out of
the race, in view of the fact that sew
eral county conventions had Endorsed
his candidacy. Should another candi-
date be nominated and elected, it is
said, the Democratic leaders in the
counties which Endorsed Vandiver
would be given the "frozen stare" by
the next Governor when the question
of appointments came up.
1t has been generally known for ten
days that Vandiver would not sur
render his position as United States
Subtreasurer in st. Louis and run for
Governor. He received scant support
in the majority of counties and virtu-
ally none in st. Louis.
Some of his friends here now be-
lieve that he was induced to pretend
he was a candidate for Governor in
order to help Edward F. Goltra in his
race for National Committeeman,
Democrats in this city, except those
who brought about the Vandiver in
dorsement at the county convention
are incensed over his statement that
the Democratic candidate for Governor
would be defeated by $4,000, unless
Folk or Clark headed the ticket. AS
it is not believed that either Folk OF
Clark will be nominated, Democrats
fear the Republicans will use Vandi-
ver's statements as campaign ma
terial.

ELLA McCLENDON IS
DENIED REHEARINC
Sturdivant Woman Must Appeal
to Supreme Court or Go
To Prison.

Unless within the next thirty days
an appeal is taken to the Supreme
Court of the United States, Ella Nc
Clendon, of Sturdivant, Mo-, who was
convicted in the United States District
Court of using the mails to defraud
and was sentenced to five years in
prison, will have to return to the Fed
eral prison to finish out her sentence,
following the refusal Friday of the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals
to grant a rehearing of her case in
that tribunal.
The McClendon case was one of the
most spectacular and costly in the Dis
trict Court at the Cape for several
years. For some time she has been
out on bond awaiting the outcome of
appeals before the U. S. Appellate
Court and now has a child at her home
at Sturdivant.
The case began when she was ar
rested June 2, 1913, and taken for a
preliminary hearing before U. S. Com
missioner Rage, on a charge of using
the mails to defraud.
Witnesses were summoned from
Colorado and other distant places.
Rage bound the woman over to Fed
eral Judge Dyer's court and was con-
victed.
She had been committed to Federal
prison to serve her sentence, when an
attorney in Kansas City undertook to
appeal the case. He obtained her re-
lease from prison on an appeal bond
and the case was taken into the U. S.
Circuit Court of Appeals, where the
decision and sentence of the lower
court was upheld.
A petition fora rehearing was filed,
which has Just been denied, and the
next step in the litigation is the U. S.
Supreme Court.
Some Cape attorneys yesterday de-
clared that they believed the Appellate
Court was her last resort, whereas
Commissioner Rage declared she could
go to the Supreme Court.

marshal at Puxico, recognized Sheriff.
as the man the Government wanted.
Sheriff. conducted a barber shop at
Grandin, small town at the end of

officials, and Mr.. Campbell, who had
been assigned to the case, came down
to Puxico to meet Gillaspie. Together
they .iourneyed to Grandin and spotted
their man.
Sheriff. was at work shaving one of
his customers, when the officers en-
tered his shop. They waited until he
had turned away from his customers
throat with the razor in hand, before
one of them seized the rifle and the
other covered Sheriff. and ordered him
to surrender,
He gave up without "a struggle and
accompanied the officers on the trip
to the Cape. On the way he talked
but little of his travels with Campbell
and would not discuss the charges
| made against him. He refused to dis.
| cuss the charges after having been
placed in Jail.
The second wife, who makes the
charges that Campbell related, now is
