THE CINCINNATI ENQUIRER, TUESDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 31, 1872. 5 FELL AMONG THIEVES. Mien Shortwell's $25,000 Experience with the Post, December Cafealer Sharp. A cause of great importance engaged the attention of Justice Banyon this morning.

Edward A. Everett, who resides at No. 110 Twenty-second street, was examined on the charge of robbery. It is alleged that he stole a number of papers worth at least $25,000 from a lady named F. C.

Shortwell, who is well known in political circles in Washington. From the testimony of the lady it is learned that week ago last Saturday she was in New York City at the Grand Central Hotel, and was introduced to the prisoner by J. Styles Amour, the chief clerk of the hotel. To him she made it known that she was about to leave New York to go to Alabama for the purpose of getting some bonds of the Selma and Guir Railroad from General P. D.

Roddy, of that State, with whom she had two contracts for the delivery of bonds of that road to the amount of $100,000, which bonds were worth about twenty-live per cent. of their face. Everett told her that if she would go South by the way of Chicago he would furnish her passes over the entire route, as he had a good deal of influence with railroad officials, and could easily procure them. She consented to make the trip, and Everett agreed to accompany her as far as Chicago. Preparations were made for the departure, and Everett warned the lady to be very careful about packing her papers, and suggested that they be carried in her satchel.

This advice Miss Shortwell did not follow, but placed the papers in her trunk upon the top of her clothing. The lid of the trunk was closed and locked by her. It was strapped by the porter at the Grand Central, and by him placed on a carriage which was to convey Miss Shortwell to the depot. On entering the carriage she found the prisoner and another gentleman, to whom she was introduced. The trio drove to the depot.

Upon arriving there Everett volunteered to get Miss Shortwell's trunk checked to this city. She consented, and in a few moments he returned and handed her a check, which, as afterward transpired, did not correspond in number with the one on the trunk. The journey to Chicago was made with the prisoner, who was very attentive to his fair companion. The lady next saw her trunk at the Tremont House, in this city, where she arrived on Wednesday morning of this week. Upon her arrival she was warned against the prisoner by a conductor named Dunn, who told her that Everett had made remarks to him which he could not disclose.

He continued to take care of her valuables. On the train she asked Dunn if she was riding on passes, and was. informed she was not, but upon a regular ticket presented by the prisoner. On reaching Chicago Everett escorted Miss Shortwell to breakfast, and was unusually gallant and attentive to her. Shortly after their meal Everett went away, but soon appeared with a hack containing his wife and some chilaren, and invited Miss Shortwell to drive.

She declined on account of the severity of the weather, and invited Mrs. Everett to her room. Everett insisted that Miss Shortwell should drive. After much urging she consented, and was gone soveral hours. Upon her return she had her trunk taken to her room, and found the lock broken and the papers gone.

The papers comprised the two contracts already referred to, and other documents in legal proceedings of great value to her, but to no one else. On Thursday morning she tried to find Everett, but failed and called upon Detective Tyrrel, who in the evening succeded in arresting him. A letter was introduced in evidence by the prosecution, written by Everett to Miss Shortwell on Thursday, stating that he had just learned by telegraph that the missing papers were left in New York, and asked her if she had been robbed. In a street-car, after the arrest, Everett gave Tyrrel the initials of the men who had the bonds in New York, but denied that he had any thing to do with the robbery. In appearance, Miss Shortwell is unusually interesting.

she is about twenty-six yeare of age, with black hair and piercing black eyes, and has the air of a person who 18 well versed in the ways of the world and the methods of doing business. She was richly dressed, and made a favorable impression on every one in the room. Everett is a tall, sandy-haired, light-complextoned man, with thin mustache. He was plainly dressed, and seemed to be about forty years of age. During the examination he was exceedingly norvous, and, while the attorney for the prosecution was summing up the case, great drops of sweat rolled down his face.

After a full examination, prisoner was held in ball of $75,000 for trial at the Criminal Court. HEAVY LAND SUIT. The Title to $2,000,000 of Chicago Property Contested. the Inter-Ocean, There were commenced yesterday, in the Superior by Edward Koby, solicitor for the complainants, two suits in chancery, which, arising in a measure out of the same circumstances, affect the title to a greater or less extent of land lying in the city of Chicago, stated to be worth in the neighborhood of $2.000,000. Between the years 1884 and 1855 there lived in the town of Upper Alton, in Madison County, of this State, one John Bostwick, who was during the period above mentioned a large operator in lands all through Illinois.

From this fact, and for the reasons that he had erected one of the finest mansions in Illinois as his family residence, connection with which WAS a private seminary for the education of his children and those of his neighbors, he was widely known throughout this and other States. In April, 1855, Bostwick came to Chicago and purchased lands in Cook Countv. While in Chicago he boarded in the house of one Benjamin F. Downing, a man professing piety and honesty, and a Methodist class leader. Bostwick a the time of his comingito the city was in robust health, but on July 1 following he fell through the hatch of a steamboat, from which time his health declined until his death, on September 12, 1855.

It is stated in the bills of complaint, that when Mrs. Mary M. Bostwiok, who was sent for, arrived in Chicago, about August 20, she found her husband greatly paralyzed and unable to communicate any thing about his business matters, although he said at times something about papers, and seemed to try to tell where they were. He seemed disappointed at not being able to do so. One Paul Cornell, who had been interested with Bostwick in business, furnished the funds necessary to purchase the coffin and convey the widow and corpse to his home, at Upper Alton, where his remains were buried.

There were left surviving the deceased his widow, Mary M. Bostwick, and several children, and these suite are brought to recover the following lands, viz: The south-west quarter of section 14, town 38, range 14, Cook Connty, which comprises a parcel of 160 acres of land, bounded on the west by Cottage Grove avenue, on the east by Woodlawn avenue, on the south by Sixty-third street and on the north by Fifty-seventh street, and includes the west half-mile of the park way connecting the North Park of South Park with the South Park of South Park. This property is valued at $700,000. Another parcel is involved of eighty acres, composed of the west balf of the south-west quarter of section 3, town 38, range 14, which is bounded on the north by third street, and on the south by Fortyseventh street. After the death of Bostwick, Downing, who pretended to have a claim against the estate of $50 for board bill which, it is alleged, had been paid, and on the representation that Bostwick was a resident of Cook County, whereas his residence was in Madison County, presented a petition to the County Judge of Cook County for the administration of to the estate of the deceased, which was granted him, and under the authority of the Court the interest of Bostwick in the above lands were sold at trifling sums.

Many allegations of fraud are made in the bill, particularly with regard to the proceedings at the time of the illness of Bostwick, it being claimed that Cornell concealed the whole of the papers of the deceased, and that a regular scheme was entered into to defraud the widow and heirs of their property; that the whole of the administration proceedings were obtained by fraud, and that they are therefore totally invalid, particularly as the residence of the deceased was in Madison County, while the administration took place in Cook County. The bills filed being of great length and exceedingly complicated, it is impossible here to give in any reasonable limits full particulars of all the complicated proceedings which are spread over a series of years. The case, it will be seen from what is above stated, is one of the most important yet brought in the Courts of Cook County in the maguitude of the interests at stake. The Last Hero Murderer. IM.

The bodies of the seven victims of the fire in Center street still remain beneath a mass of smoldering ruins, and the problem of whose duty it is to remove them yet remains unsolved. Robert Craighead, the owner er of the buildings, asserts that the expense of cleaning away the ruins should be assumed by the lessees, who bare property beneath them, and refuses to incur the cost himself. The lessees refuse to employ workmen for this purpose, on the ground that the ruins virtually would belong to run the the risk insurance companies, and that they they disturbed the remains forfeiting of the their building.

It is said that a railroad conductor, well-known in this city, who left for Bowling Green time ago, had a wife whom he did not treat altogether according to the vows made at the altar of Hymen. It is alleged that she followed him to Bowling Green, where he received her rather churlishly, but engaged apartments for her and her family, consisting of two or three small boys and a girl of sixteen; that he induced this girl to poison the mother and the children, and that on seeing what she had done, she took a portion of the cold "pisin" and put an end to her own existence; while another account has it that her unnatural father was her murderer in order prevent her evidence from securing his convic. tion.

I had tried a number of physicians, and had taken a large quanity of medicine, both allopathic and homeopathic, but had got no relief. I had read of astonishing cures having been' made by your remedies; and some four monthe ago read a notice in the Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post of a cure having been effected on a person who had long been suffering as I had been. went right off and got some of -your Sarsaparillian Resolvent, Ready Relief and Regulating Pills--and commenced taking them.
