I R06ENTHAIS ABOVE SARATOGA er in the Philippines. Too ill to be taken from the train," Colonel Tucker agreed to return without requisition papers and went on to St.

Louis in the custody of Sergt. William O'Brien and Detective RIasel, of tho Chl-cag Police Department, who niada the arrest. On the train Colonel Tucker' was accompanied by a woman, at first said to be the one for whom he is said to have deserted his wife, but Colonel Tucker declared she was his sister. He was also attended by a woman nurse and by two valets. The army officer was too ill to talk when Sergeant O'Brien read the warrant for him.

He seemed only slightly concerned over the new turn of affairs. Mystery About Complainant. The warrant for Colonel Tucker's arrest was issued on October 9 in Judge Gem-mill's court on information furnished by Marx Loehwing. Loehwing's business address in the directory Is given as 010 West Washington street and bis bouse address as 230 Fifty-fifth street. Attorney II.

R. Pearson, who is the attorney In the case, has his office In the same suite of rooms, and Loehwing is presumably a clerk in ths employ of Pearson. The complaint charges that Tucker deserted his wife, Mary IjO-gan Tucker, July 25, 1907. Attorney Tearson refused today to discuss the case or answer any questions In reference to the warrant or the charge made against Tucker. The only thing given out by the police was Information furnished by Chief of Follco Shippy.

"Pearson came to me last Saturday and asked me if I would send two men on a warrant charging wife abandonment," said Chief Shippy. "I told him I would if he gave me a State warrant. I turned the. case over to Detectives Walter O'Brien and William Blasel, and that is all I know about the case." Acquitted Of Charges. A year ago Colonel Tucker was found, not guilty of charges involving his conduct in the Philippines.

The' gravest charges were that Colonel Tucker had been too friendly with Mrs. Myrtle Piatt, and that he had accompanied her from -Manila to the United States. Tho War Department, testimony appeared to have substantiated the statement that Colonel Tucker knew this woman, who had been a school teacher In the Philippines, butthere was no positive evidence showing Irregular conduct on. his part. According to a report from Washington Secretary Taft investigated the charges and found they were not sufficiently grave to warrant any official measure of punishment.

The army officer, who was stationed In the othVe of the chief paymaster in the Federal Building, refused to dlH-cuss the reports or to comment on the situation. Ills relatives also declined to be drawn Into a discussion of the'subject. Colonel Tucker Silent. Lieutenant-Colonel Tucker traveled considerably at this time in Mexico, but Is said not to have been accompanied by his wife. Upon his return to Chicago he still objeqtel to being questioned on the subject of his alleged marital troubles.

He soon afterward applied for and obtained sick leave and was succeeded In bla position as chef paymaster of the Department of the Lakes by Major B. B. Ray. Last June Colonel Tucker underwent an operation for abdonilnil trouble at Mount, Clemens. He has had leave of absence from his duties as paymaster for two months, and was supposed to be sojourning at Mount Clemens.

Ho obtained indefinite sick leave two months ago, and It, has been generally believed that he went to Mount Clemens, never again to return to the army service, because of his wreckd health. The general opinion at army headquarters has been that his leave of absence would eventually result in absolute retirement. Colonel Tucker's break in health, it is said, was due principally to his domestic troubles and consequent publicity Wife And Mother Oft For Special Dispatch t. the Baltimore Sun.l Washington, Oct. 13.

The arrest of Colonel Tucket brings to a crisis one of the most peculiar cases that has ever been recorded in tho War Department. Under the laws of Illinois, if proved guilty, punishment may be a term In the State-prison. At the time of his arrest Colonel Tucker was being conveyed by Mrs. Myrtle Piatt and his sister, Mrs. Johnson, from Mount Clemens, Hot Springs, where the 200 Golden Stamps with Every 50 Golden Stamps with Ladies' Suits 4 ON CREDIT AT CASH PRICES Come and see these Suits you never dreamed of seeing anything so elegant at the price.

Edna Wallace Hopper, the actress, today told Charles E. Lit-tlefield, receiver of the failed brokerage firm of A. O. Brown that the head of this firm and she are engaged to be married. The receiver was inquiring into the circumstances under which A.

O. Brown gave Miss Hopper a $7,500 automobile and transferred to her an Insurance policy on his life for $25,000. Miss Hopper, who had been called as a witness, declared that the transfers were made long before the big brokerage firm got In trouble. "Mr. Brown gave me the car on March 2," said she, "knowing that of all things I most wanted I had never received a motor car.

He knew I would enjoy It." The actress then stated that at the time of the transactions In question there existed, and that there still exists, an engagement of marriage between her and Mr. Brown. It was in consideration of this engagement, she said, in reply to questions by Mr. Brown's lawyers, that the automobile was given and the life Insurance policy transferred to her. Miss Hopper also said she had an engagement ring.

She formally declined to give up either the automobile or the Insurance policy to the receiver. She also testified to having.received a gift of money from Mr. Brown after returning from an automobile tour which she took alone. The money was "just a gift, to do with as I pleased." The Rearing was adjourned until Friday next. TELEGRAPHIC BRIEFS Youngstown, Ohio, Oct.

Judge Arch-bald, however, held that the jurisdiction of the United States courts over Thaw could be exercised as soon as the habeas corpus matter was disposed of.

'Oh, they said, 'you know the But I said, 'Can't I see her on the sly? She might be blind, might.be very tall, or very short, or a cripple."

Robertson, H. B. Roberts. coionei was oraereu to proceea ior treatment at the Army General Hospital. Mrs.

Piatt is the New L'ngland schoolteacher, with whom Tucker was said to havebV come infatuated In tho Philippines. It was as a result of their alleged relations In Manila that Mrs. Tucker and her mother, Mrs. Logan, asked the War Department a year ago last June to have Colonel Tucker's mental and physical condition Investigated." ju Both Mrs. Logan and Mrs.

Tucker declared to a correspondent of The Sun that they were wholly unaware that the Colonel's arrest was to be effected, and that they had nothing to do with it. But they left at 5.30 o'clock oh the Baltimore and Ohio train fior Chicago, to be present at any legal proceedings which may come about. "I am sorry that this thing had to done," said Logan, as she boarded the train. "I say 'had to be for I suppose it had. I did not instigate any such proceedings on the part of the Illinois authorities, but I suppose our friends in Chicago did.

You see, we have a number of loyal friends back in our home State. They will always be friends to the memory of General Logan. Naturally they feci outraged that Colonel Tucker should so mistreat a daughter of their war hero." Mrs. Logan and her daughter were accompanied to the station by Capt. Logon Tucker, son of Colonel and Mrs.

Tucker. Captain Tucker declared he was not in ft position to discuss the case further than to say that his sympathies were with his mother. He la an officer of the Marine Corps. "I wish It understood that my daughter has never sued Colonel Tucker for divorce, and has never intended to do so," said Mrs. Logan.

"She simply asked the War Department to investigate his doings with this woman in the Philippines. The investigation was made, but still he was permitted to remain in the army. Ever since his return to the United States, more than a year ago, he has refrained from all com-, municatlon with his wife. He has all that time refused to come near her or to allow her to come near him and has not contributed 1 cent to her support. "We will probably be blamed by the public for prosecuting or, maybe, the persecution of a dying man.

In anticipation of this, I wish to state that It was through the repeated efforts of myself and Mrs. Tucker that he was being transferred from a private sanitarium to the army hospital, where he could bo properly treated." Investigation at the War Department discloses that some time ago Mrs. Tucker addressed a note to Secretary of Wat Wright asking that her husband be given treatment at a military hospital, to which he was entitled under the law. At the same time she asked that he be transferred at once, so as to be removed from "the evil influence of Mrs. Piatt, who has remained at his side all the months he has been at the Mount Clemens' Sanitarium." Colonel Tucker, after obtaining leave last May, proceeded to Mount Clemens, accompanied by Mrs.

riatt, his sister, Mrs. Johnson, and several servants. Ills ailment was Bright's disease, and after remaining there some time an operation was performed. The patient barely pulled through. PREACHER HAD TOUR WIVES Said He Couldn't Always nemembe If He Was Married.

Nevada, Oct. 13. Rev. W. II.

Forse, aged 79 years, formerly pastor of a church here, pleaded guilty to bigamy today and was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary. He admitted the charge when confronted by two of his four wives. His excuse was that he could not always remember whether was married. Story "You see," Cuyler declared, "I was sure you would feel this way about it. That was why I came out here to find you." "I'm not sure how I feel about It myself yet," said she.

"Oh, I can make a good guess," he replied. "You are very glad that she is to be so happy, and yet there is a little ache in your heart that you can't deny, try as you will to do so. There is an end to something just what you can't definitely decide but something has gone out of your life of that you arts certain. Isn't that it?" "Yes. that Is Just It.

How did you know so well 7' she asked. "Cuyler turned to her with a smile of understanding. "I have a brothers," he said simply. "He was very close to me closer, Indeed, than anyone else in the world, until one fine day he found the other, and, of couse, the greater happiness. Just as your sister has done.

It was tremendously lonely without him." "But you got over it in time?" she asked quickly. "In a way, yes; In another way, no," said he. She looked at him questloningly. He was smiling down at her with a certain whimsical gravity. "There is only one way to get even with these people this sister of yours and this brother of mine," he asserted.

"And how Is that?" she asked. "Follow suit," said he. Her brows wrinkled in a perplexed "I don't exactly catch your meaning," she said. Cuyler suddenly leaned toward her. There was something in his eyes that brought a quick flush to her cheeks.

"Let's not permit these other people to have all the happiness in the world. Let's reserve a little for ourselves," said he. Her head was turned from him. Presently he saw her shoulders shake convulsively. At the same time she arose from the bench.

"I'm I'm going down to the pond." she faltered. still refusing to look at him. "Please," please, stay here and don't come until I call you." "Just a minute, Elinor," he pleaded. "I wanted to say" But' with a little imperious gesture she moved away, leaving him there somewhat mystified and decidedly angry. He sat down again on the rustic seat, drew out a cigarette and began smoking furiously.

When it was burned out he lighted another, and then another. It was not until his fourth cigarette that a voice sounded faintly from the little pond at the foot of the terrace. "Fritz," it called. "Oh, Fritz You may come now if you like." He hurried down the parth. Elinor gat on the rail of the little boathouse.

Her eyes were very red, and beside her lay a tiny bit of lace, crumpled and very wet "Elinor," he said contritely, "I didn't mean to make it any harder for you. I was trying" "Listen," she interrupted him. "I came down here to have a last grand orgy of feelings all by my lonesome. Whatever tears I for Margaret I wanted to shed once for all, and that's 'vhat I've done. I I had to shed them now.

because be-cause what you've just said, you know makes it makes It oh, Fritz, don't you see?" The manner in which he sprang to her side told very plainly that he did Bee. "And now." she said rather breathlessly a momeif later, "we'd -better go up to the house and tell them how I've got square with Margaret," Cuyler stood at the gate watching the much-decorated motor disappear down the road In a cloud of dust, out of which the white ribbons still fluttered In flambuoy-ant fashion. The ground before him was white with rice, while here and there a decrepit shoe, having done its duty in speeding the parting couple, lay in pathetic neglect, its brief moment of popularity now With a grim smile Cuyler turned on bis heel and made his way up the gravel walk, past the groups of pretty, laughing girls, each with its attendant train of satellites. On the wide veranda the orchestra played lilting waltzes, to which apparently no one was listening; and near by the bride's mother, a portly, rather handsome woman, was talking gayly with a solemn-faced young man, whom Cuyler recognized as the officiating rector. "Where is Elinor?" he asked, as Mrs.

Trenholme turned to him with a welcoming smile, which plainly invited him to join her. "Elinor? Really, Fritz, I haven't the least idea. Isn't she down there on the lawn?" Cuyler shook his head. "She was standing beside me when they entered the motor," he explained, "and after they had started I found she had slipped away." "I think," the rector Interposed, "I saw her going through the house a moment ago. She went through the rear door, If I remember." i "Thank you," said Cuyler.

He entered the hall, crossed to the door at the rear and stepped out on the broad veranda that commanded a fine view of the hills to the west. Lighting a cigarette, he descended the broad steps and sauntered leisurely along the path that led down the terrace. He had proceeded no great distance, when from behind clump of bay trees he caught the flash of a white dress. He tossed the cigarette away, and turned from the path. Behind the barrier of bay trees was a rustic seat, and sitting very straight on this seat, her hands clasped and her eyes a most suspicious red, was Elinor Trenholme.

Cuyler was beside her in an instant. "Well, well," he said lightly, yet not without a certain touch of gentleness in his voice, "this is rank desertion. It will nver do in the world. Aren't you going to ask me to be seated "1 came here to be alone," she said, doubtfully. "I'm not sure that I want you here Just now." But nevertheless she moved over and made room for him beside her.

Cuyler at once took the seat, looking at her search-ingly meanwhile. "You shouldn't feel about it the way you do," he chided, gravely. "And how do you think I feel" she challenged. Cuyler looked at her again. "Rather cut up, I fancy," he replied.

"You are wrong. I am not cut up, as you choose to call it. Only only" "Only what?" said he. "Of course, he's perfectly splendid," she said slowly, "and I am awfully proud of him. Just as we all are; but but somehow I can't help being selfish.

I can't bear the idea of giving up Margaret to him. We've always been together, she and and and oh, well, I'm selfish, that's all there Is to It." Cuyler saw something glistening in her eyes. A tear coursed slowly down her cheek and hung in ridiculous fashion on the point of her chin. She brushed It away almost savagery..
