CUDAHY'S SON. | CHIEF OF POLICE DONAHUE OF OMAHA, THE OFFICIAL WHO HAS i CHARGE OF THE SEARCH FOR THE KIDNAPERS OF MILLIONAIRE MAHA, Dec. 26—t is now known that Pat Crowe was seen in South Omaha scarcely twenty hours be- | fore the abduction of Eddie| Cudahy.

PARIS, Dec. 2.—Before the first eivil | tribunal of the Seine to-day Maitre Bouat resumed his speech, begun December 20, when the case was adjourned for a week in behalf of Count and Countess de Cas- tellane in the suit of Charles Werthei- mer, a London bric-a-brac dealer, to re- cover payment for articles sold to the de- fendants. In an elaborate argument counsel set forth the counter clalm of the Castellanes, who demand a reduction of the debt, provisionally estimated to be | at least 2,000,000 francs,” and the restitu- tion of objects taken in exchange by Wer- thelmer under the penalty of 1000 francs for each day's delay in the restitution from the day of judgment, finally claim- ing dAmages to the amount of 300,000 | francs, Counsel suggested that experts be ap- pointed to inspect the articles involved and suggested that these experts be chosen from an ordinery list or from among the presidents of the expos..on juries. He explained that George J. Gould of New York, in alding the Castel- lanes in this suit, desired to accomplish a duty which the court had previously confided to him, while the Castellanes, after throwing off Wertheimer's yoke, | brought the case into court because they thought publicity was better thaf tho mystery of the susoicious pacts and | equivocal arrangements. In so doing, | counsel asserted, they did an act of dig- | nity and courage. ‘Werthel- 2. counsel for | of only five articles of the value of 500,000 francs_could possibly be questioned, and while Wertheimer affirmed thelr genuine- ness he would consent to another expert | examination with the understanding that 1‘ if the articles were declared spurious the 500,000 francs was to be struck out of ths | bill, but if they were oeclared genuine the | Castellanes were to pay the full price, | no revaluation being admitted. Werthei- | mer, counsel added, opposed the restitu- | tion of the art works which the Count de Castellane gave him in pledge for pay- | ment of the total of the bill on the eve of his departure for America. | Maitre Bouat again spoke, asserting | that the Castellanes obtained delays in payment and the withdrawal of Werthei- mer’s suit only by fresh purchases of ar- ticles for 250,000 francs, which were bare- Iy worth 15000 francs. This, counsel claimed, was selling at ' usurious rates. The Castellanes, counsel continued, demanded an _expert valuation of all the purchases and not of a few objects. The case was adjourned until January 9, when judgment will be delivered.

WANT ANTI-KIDNAPING LAW. Governor Stanley Honors an Appeal From Kansas Farmers. TOPEKA, Kans., Dec. 26—The prosper- ous farmers and wheat growers of Kan- sas, who have big bank deposits as a re- sult of the good crops in the State for the past two or three years, are petitioning Governor Stanley for a more stringent kidnaping law in Kansas. Many of the etitioners for this law explain that they ave from fifty to one hundred thousand dollars in the bank and they do not care to have the Cudahy game played on them for half their money. Under the present law in Kansas, a kidnaper who takes a child may be sentenced to only five years' imprisonment. Governor Stanley will ask State Senator Harry Pestenna to intro- duce a bill in_ the " coming Legislature making the offense punishable by a life sentence.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2%.—The Indlan appropriation bill to-day received from the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs the first attention that has been given to it by that body. A sub-committee con- sisting of Senators Thurston, Platt of Connecticut, Stewart, Jones of Arkansas and Pettigrew took up the bill and after examining many of the provisions declded to consider the petition of the Pima In- dlans of Agizona for improved facilities for securing water for irrigation. Hydro- grapher Newell of the Geological Survey and others were heard as to the utility of a_proposed dam for a storage reservoir on San Carlos River. It was stated that these Indians had been deprived of their water supply by the construction of an irrigation system by white men, and that whereas they had been self-supporting up to that time, they were now on the verge s eathmated that th sed d - e proj lam will cost about a million dollars.

PR Nurse of the Stolen Pabs'Leaps From a Moving Carriage to Send an Alarm to Iis Father, Special Dispatch to The Call INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 26.—Mrs. Samuel D. Miller, whose husband is ex-Attorney General Miller's son, kidnaped their lit- tle child from home this afternoon and fled from the city. Mrs. Miller was Miss Karcher of New York and a very beauti- ful woman. Seven years ago she married Samuel D. Miller in Washington, the wed- ding ceremony being an elaborate affair. The young couple came to this city, where‘ Mr. Miller occupled a high soclal position, and resided here for two years. Mrs. Miller, however, desired to go back to New York, and finally induced her hus- ! band to establish himself in the practice of law in the metropolis. They resided | there for two or three years. Young Mr. | Miller decided that it would be to his best interest to return to Indianapolis and join his father's law firm, which is composed | of two or three of the best lawyers in | the State of Indiana, the elder Mr. Miller having been before his appointment as Attorney General of the United States a law pariner of former President Benjamin | Harrison. It was President Harrison who x\pp{)ln(ed W. H. H. Miller Attorney Gen- | eral. When Samgel Miller arrived at his de- cision his wife refused to accompany him | to this city, and has continued to reside in New York. While the young couple | have not been living together, there has| never been any talk of divorce and no | papers have ever been filed to that end. | 0 or three days ago Mrs. Miller came aquietly to this city and had two or three interviews with her husband. She was allowed to see their child two or three times, and this afternoon a nurse went out to the hotel with the child. Mrs, Mil- ler had a carriage in waiting and all en- tered the carriage together. After they had gone some distance the nurse became suspiclous and alighted while the vehicle was in motion. She went at once to a telephone and informed Milier that she thought something was wrong. He went to the Union station in order to head them off in case it was Mrs. Miller’s intention to leave the ecity. Up to a late hour to-night not the slightest trace of Mrs. Miller and child has been found. It is surmised her destination is New York, and every effort {8 being made "l): intercept her before she reaches that city.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.—Decision was ra- served by Justice Blanchard in the Su- preme Court to-day in an actlon brought by Tom L. Johnson against R. T. Wflson & Co., bankers and brokers, for an in- junction restraining the defendants from | disposing of the stocks and securities of the Detroit street railway system pend- Ing the trial of a suit for the dissolution of an alleged partnership existing be- tween Johnson and K. T. Wilson and Co. Mr. Johnson asks also that a receiver be appointed for the railway. o The origin of the suit was the pyrchase in 1894 by the defendants of the Detroit street railway system, after which Mr. | Johnson became associated with them in the management. R. T. Wilson & Co. | began the purchase of the congern in the fall of 183 and after they had succeeded in so doing they brought in Mr. Johnson as an associate in January, 1885. He was to have a one-fifth mterest in the com- pany of all stocks purchased or to be | purchased by R. T. Wilson & Co. in con- nection with the carrying out of the pro- ject for the sonsolidation of all the sur- face railroads in and about Detroit. Mr. Johnson was also to have charge of the working of the different roads acquired and was to act as the president of the company at a salary of $10,000 a year. R lson & Co. were to have the man- agement of the financial affairs of the corporation and were io form syndicates and outside arrangements with regard to the securitiés as they deemed fit. The contract between Johnson and R. T. Wil- son & Co. was to terminate within three years if possible, but did not so terminate and was extended from time to time untii November last. The reason of the fallure to close the agreement was the formation of a_new company for the acquisition of the Detroit street railroad system, other- wise known as the 3-cent fare ¢ombina- tion, which was engineered by the firm of Pack & Everitt, who secured a fran- chise on making a stipulation that they would carry passengers for a 3-cent fare and who succeeded in acquiring between fifty and sixty miles of streets under that franchise. The scheme of Pack & Everitt seriously interfered with the vlans laid down by R. T. Wilson & Co. and they made a sei- tlement with Pack & Bveritt whereby Pack & Everitt a, d to deposit 70 per cent worth of stock in the 3-cent fare company and were to receive in re- turn certain stocks in a new company to be organized under the laws of Mich: Pack & Bveritt, however, did not d the full amount of 7 per cent stock in the 3-cent fare company and the question of the balance was made a basis of negotlations, as was also the amount R. T. Wilson & Co. should pay for the stock already deposited. These nerou.v tions continued until the middle of No- vember last and on November 24 an ar- ent was made bétween R. T. Wil- ‘0. and Pack & Everitt. Mr._Johnson claims that he, on Novem- ber 17, orally gave notice that he wanted his share of the securities and that he wouyld pw his one-fifth share of the out- lay by Wilson & Co. in their o, the amount expended being over $5,000.000.

Wilson & Co. deny that Johnson Je an ‘rl;cll:fi ‘;t;‘alt h:‘ elhmd a r;lu.o_ jon of the partnership prior to oge making o:d Pack & Ev ey sit f the o demanding that the partnership be dis- solved. ‘Wilson & Co. paid $.000,000 for the pur- cme'fi the roads acquired by them, but say that Johnson has not yet paid his one-fifth of that sum and cannot there- fore claim the one-fifth of the securities.

After a few years at school little Miss Fox’s opportunity came in child parts with Marie Prescott until she was offered an engagement with the Bennett & Moul- ton Opera Company.

RUDYARD KIPLING LOSES SUIT AGAINST PUBLISHER Author May Not Regulate the Pub- lication of His Uncopyrighted Works. NEW YORK, Dec. 26.—Judge Lacombe, in the United States Circuit Court to-day, denied the appeal by Rudyard Kipling’'s attorneys to restrain E. W. Fenyon from publishing and editing sections of his work upon which an elephant’s head had | been used. Judge Lacombe sald Mr. Kip- ling had not established a common law trademark and there was no suggestion of a statutory trademark. “The proposition advanced,” sald the court, “is that an author whose mental gl‘oductlons, prose, verse and title, have een given to the world without copyright 80 that any one is free to reprint and sell the whole or any gart of them, may never- theless regulate the manner in whith such | printed matter may be grouped and en- titled and may restrain any application of the title selected otherwise than as he used or uses it. It would seem that the measure of rellef which authors may ob- tain against unauthorized publications of thelr works must be found in the copy- right statutes ADVERTISEMENTS. GOOD REASON FOR IT. The Success and Popularity of the New Catarrh Cure. \ The remarkable success and popularity of the new catarrh cure, Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets, is largely because it not onl cures catarrh, but because catarrh suf- ferers who use these tablets know what they are taking into their systems—no se- cret is made of what they contain. are composed of hydrastin, blood root, gualacol and red gum, are pleasant to the taste and, being dissolved In the mouth, they take immediate effect upon the mu- cous lining of the throat, nasal passages and the whole respiratory tract. The cures that Stuart’s Catarrh Tab- lets have accomplishied ‘in old chronie cases are little short of remarkabie, and the advantage of knowing just what you are taking into your system is of . mount importafice when it is mmem&::ed that the cocame or morphine habit has been frequently contracted as the result of using secret catarrh remedies, as so many of them are well known to contain these injurious amg". P! clans because their antiseptic charact renders them perfectly safe for the :e;x-‘ -eral e;;utlglecm!: u‘::‘ and their composition mak Cf mon sense cui forms of catarrhal troubler . o ° ror all With nearly all advertised catarrh cures it 1s a matter of guesswork as to what you are taking into the stomach, as the proprietors, while wmaking all sorts of claims to what their medicines will do, are very careful to keep it a close secr: as to what they really contain. 2 This is one reason why Stuart's Tablets have been so widely recog:::ilz ed, becausa they are not only pleasant and convenient to take, but the patient also knows he is not putting into g|l stomach anything of an Injurious character. hese tablets sre sold by druggists ev- erywhere in the Unl(e‘ States and Canada at 50 cents for complete treat- ment and grohibly theére is no better rem- edy ever devised for th of catarrh, whether located throat, bronchial tubes or in in the head, the stomach.
