Tt mia at Mra fh-nnk alias Crook who Is charge'i with the abduction of Nina Bops, will come before Jndge Waterman thia morning for a hearing, or at least it ia set for that time.

Kra. Crook js very anxious to have an immediate trial, ana appears cowmen; or an acquittal, claiming to be able to explain everything. She promises to give a thorough and extremely in teresting line of detail on the caso that will be very rieh in many particulars. All-in-all, aha claims that she ia a very much abused woman who had the very beat of intentions toward Nina and gays that there would be no prosecution if the girl's family alone were concerned. She explains that the girl waa very anxious to go East with her as her companion, and for that alone aha intended, lira.

Crook further says that there were reasons in the family why Mjms Bope deei red to earn her own living. Mrs. Crook's husband, who ought to be in jail with her, is said to be lying verr sick in Buffalo. Th female prisoner is a very plausible personage, and her story touching 'her good intentions toward the girl ia very good until the other side is heard from. If, howevor, the ease is proee- entea as it snouia ne it is not likely ner position will be found to be a very enviable one.

Mr. Foster, the attorney for the complainant, seems to be much in earnest in the matter, though it is to be regretted that there is an evi dent desire to shield certain parties who are concerned in the case. Mrs. Crook, who hss been soma time in the jail, yesterday manifested much surprise at the cleanliness of the apart ments aasignea ner ana we wnoiesome 100a served. "Why.

1 THE REYNOLDS CASE. The alleged cruelty practiced by J. H. Bey- nolds in tha ease of hia 6-year-old boy aeems to be mora serious than waa supposed when the matter waa first published. Yesterday Reynolds waa arrested by Officers Mahoney and Ryan, and taken before Justice Eberhardt, who granted a continuance, releasing the prisoner in bonds of $300.

Truckman William Burns waa Inter, viewed at the Lincoln-street house of Engine Company ao. 7, yesterday afternoon, and asked to tell what he knew about the cruelty with which Reynolds is charged. He aaid: "WelL July 28 I waa going to my home at No. 644 west superior street, ana saw tna grocer at uie corner of Huron street looking up at a little dark window in the endtif the long frame building in the rear of No. 434 Huron street I crossed the street and asked him what he waa looking at, and he said.

There's a child up there and the people have ail gone to a picnic. We called, but there waa no answer. and at last I got a step-ladder and went no to the window. On pushing aside the curtain with which the window was darkened, and. gazing into the room.

I at first could aee nothing: but finally, back in a dark corner, I saw the little boy's big eyes. 'Come here, I said, and in a little weak voice he answered: I can't: I'm I crawled through the window and found the little fellw crouched a frightened way in tne cor ner, tied with a cord to the bed-post I unfastened him and carried him in my arms to the light Oh! I tell you. his face had a piteous look. His cheeks were sunken, and his great, ex- Sressionlees eyes bulged out in a way that gave le gaunt face a starved expression. There waa not a particle of flesh on hia body, and I'm ready to swear the boy waa starved.

I yelled to the grocer to bring something to eat, and he brought some milk and cookies, which the little thing ravenously devoured. When he had finished Quite a crowd of people had gathered. below, and I carried the boy to the window, and, blew -me, if they didn't burst into tears at the very sight Well, I went down and left him, leaving the rest of the people to notify the Humane Society and the police. I kpow nothing more about the case exoept that since we found the 1 i I 1 noy mey nave put woe ciotues on lum wueu i saw him he had lust a rainred. thin wrapper on and have released him and permitted him to go out with the other children." On investigation it was fonnd that Burns' story is well substantiated by other witnesses.

Many of the neighbors who have lived in the vi cinity during the three years that the Reynolds family have occupied the house, say they never saw the child, and that he waa always kept cioeeiy oonnnea ana never auowea to go witn the other children. The boy was seen yesterday sitting on the stoop before the house. Hia ware not exactly gaunt, but were absolutely without ooior. mm eves won wren ana stooa out in their sockets. He is excessively thin and about half the size Of the ordinary boy at 6 years of age.

He answers questions in a dazed sort of a way. and when ashed why they shut him np aaid he didn't know, while his 12-year-old sister sharply interrupted with "They didn shut him up. and looked menac ingly at her pale little brother. 'When the mother came home she denied the detail of the treatment, saying that the boy was thin and pale through sickness alone, and that they took him to Humboldt Park with the family but a few weeks before; that July 28. when the boy waa discovered by Burns: they left him tied because he steals everything about the house, and that they went that afternoon to nave a pioture taken of the other membera of the family: that Eggert.

the grocer, must have seen the boy, because he went into his store to get a lunch-bag the day they went to Humboldt Park. The statement of the neighbors, Mrs. Reynolds tha the wnoie, "a parcel oi lies." and the arrest was not made until the case had been carefully lnvesticatod by Officer Little. Reynolds is a large, strong man, but the grocer says ha never works. For a time he waa the janitor of Bethany Congregational Church, but has been out of the Doeition of bite.

Ha has been stndvinff for tha ministry both at home and at the Chicago Theological Seminary, where he has attended a course of lectures. The family came from England a few years ago, and when Mra. Reynolds waa asked what town they came from she said she didn't know, but afterward changed it to, '-I don't care to state." Mr. Reynolds ia cnargea wun cruelty to cmiaren, THEY MUST DIE. About two months ago rumors were rife to tha effect that the Supreme Court had concluded to grant tha condemned anarchiata a new trial Rumors to tha contrary have been constantly expected since those who were on the lookout for them were not disappointed.

About a month ago Joe Gruenhut announced that tha anarchists in Chicago had received information from a reliable source, to the effect that theirl condemned brethren in lawlessness were to be denied a new trial, and now conies a similar rumor from another source. Justice A M. Craig, of the Illinois Supreme Court, who is now in Maine, is said to have stated, before starting for the coast, that the Supreme Court would not grant a new trial. The Judge ia alleged to have further stated that the Supreme Court waa quite iiiiainiimua ui iw opinion, ana um we aecision was to be kept a secret until the opening of the September term, which will be the first Tuesday in that month, In response to thia rumor. Judge Magruder, of the State Supreme Court, said yesterday: "This is a question on which I can not be inter viewed.

I know nothing of Judge Craig's utterances, but from what I know of him I should be strongly inclined to doubt his having made anch a statement' State's Attorney Grinnall was found in the court house listening to aOolonel Munn's address, and on being interrogated he said: "I have heard no sucn report, and don't oeiieve uage Craig ever said that the anarchists must nang. At uie office of Captain W. P. Black, of counsel for the anarchists, a gentle man answered in reply to a query: "It would be entirely impossible for me to believe such a report Jndge Craig would never say such a thing; of that I am positive. There can be no truth in it Even if it were so, ha wouldn't say BREVITIES.

With Their Friends Ttaey Enjoy a Day of Racing on the West bide. The Butchers and Grocers' Clerks' Associa tion, composed of young gentlemen who make it their business to sell to a confiding public old sheep under the name of spring lamb and nig ger-head molasses for golden drips, yesterday held their annual picnic at tha Chicago Driving Park. In ys good old days a picnic was held in soms shady grove where the sunbeams played at hide and seek among the green leaves, and the groen grass was like a carpet of tha Lord's making; where lovers whispered soft nothings under overhanging boughs, and then spent the balance of the week In getting the grass-stains off their Sunday pants. But all that ia changed; picnics now are held anywhere and everywhere, and the girls are content to drink circus lemonade and beer with a PicadUly collar on, at the expense of their luckless swains, whereas before, grandmother's coffee was the proper caper. Trees at the Driving Park are aa scares as well, as acaros as ex- Warden McGarigla ia at tha present tima, and the grass that may perhaps have been green in the early spring has become parched and brown under the fierce ras of the summer sun.

It was tha last place ia the world that would have been aelectedia ova oaunHfcnnn's pats for a picnic, but for all that the clerks, their employers and their wives and sweethearts used it for picnicking purposes, and seemed to have just aa Jolly a time of it as though had been held ia soma moss-grown dell The crowd began to arrive about 12 o'clock. and from that time until away lata In the afternoon there was a constant atream of people pouring in through tha big gates, and by 2 o'clock there waa somewhere in the neighborhood of six or seven thousand Tieonle on the grounds. It was an orderly and well-behaved crowd, too, as a rule, and tnongn tne score or more of perspirinll barkeepers were kept busy all the long afternoon in supplying the demands of the thirsty crowd, yet but few people were to be seen under the "influence." the reason perhaps being that you really got so little for your money. The book-makers who do business at tha old stand on regular racing days, had arranged to give some running 'races on their own nook, and these, together with a trotting and pacing rece.fnrniehed the chief emnsement of the crowd, and, thongh the racing waa really good, the books did very little business, as the regular bettors preferred to wait for a regular day, and so remained at home, while the butchers and 'the grocers didn't care to invest very heavily on a game that they were not familiar with, preferring, instead, to play their money against a large wheel-of -fortune that was doing an opposition business under the grand stand. TBS PiCrSO SACK, that came first, brought out three candidates for the crown of Johnston, and the programmes gave their names aa Billy, Butcher, and Snyder, and their names were about all that was known about them.

Billy waa such a wee bit of an animal that when ha had hia harness on you could hardly see him, and he couldn't pace fast enough to keep himself warm. Butcher waa a hot favorite, but for all that he wasn't fast enough to win, and Border took the race in straight heats. Time, and 4:00. A trotting race, beat two in three heats, followed, which brought out Charlie Gold tut, Dan Scully, and Dan plain Dan, without any other handle whatever. Dan Scully, by a combination of gaits embracing every kind in a horseman's calendar, won the first heat in with Charlie Goldnst, a good, honest little trotter second, and Dan third; time, 2:43 Charlie Goldust ontfooted the party in the next two heata, Dan being distanced in the second, and won very handily in 2:37 and Then came the running, races and on these speculation was decidedly light The first event, a dash of five furlongs for 2-year-olds, nsa lour atarters ana tne DooK-maxere were evidently of the opinion thatHanselle could not lose it, as they laid but 1 to 2 against his chances.

The race was a pretty one and after a driving finish in a dead heat between Yerner and Jack Brown. Time, 2:17. In the run.

off Yerner won with ease by two lengths in 1:183. TH THIRD EVENT, a dash of a mile, brought out three starters Hetty Osgood, and Yi via and proved a veritable picnio for Hotty the favorite, who beat Osgood by a length, pulling np Yivia a fair third. Time, 1:455,. The fourth event, a dash of five furlongs, had nine to sport silk, and waa won by the favorite, Mattie with Long John second, and Only Dare third. Time, 1:024.

The fifth event, a steeplechase over the short course, had three starters Aacoli, 160 pounds, Bnchiol, 130, and Nellie Watkins, 125 and was won by Buchiel running away, Ascoli act-ing very much tke he had joined tha Murphy movement before the race. No time waa given, and the race looked so suspicions that the judges declared all bets off, to the delight of those who had backed tha chestnut son of Springbok. After the racing there was a balloon ascension. Professor Gomes soaring heavenward in an air ship of the hot air vari-iety after which tho crowd at least the younger portion of it, devoted themselves to dancing which waa kept np tmti a late hour. During the afternoon what threatened at one time to become a serious conflagration brokel out in the grana stsna, ine nr evidently started in the flooring lust back of tha weighing stand, and was probably caused by a lighted i cigar falling through one of the many cracks onto the scraps of paper underneath.
