There haii been ionio donbt felt nnd
01 pressed an to whether the Virginia
wlfo of llarry J. Carpenter , now lying
In jail hero on a charge of bigamy ,
* ould appear against him , She or-
nvedhuro , however , Friday night , nnd
Saturday morning vUitod police hoad-
quarton. Oflicor Edgar accompanied
her to where the Council JJIufTu wife
wan , nnd introduced thorn to each
othor. Their mooting was moro cor
dial than ii usual in such CMOS , they
exchanging an affectionate kiss , and
entering at i > nco upon a confidential
chat and narration of experiences.
A little later in the day they visited
the court house together , and called at
the j il. Oflicor Edgar called Car
penter to como to the grating , but
the latter on approaching nofioou who
was there nnd boat a rotroat. Ho was
ordered to the- front again , and com
plied in part ; but kept nls lace turned
aside , until the oilicrr spoke to him
pretty sharply. As ho turned his
head the Virghh wife said : "Hollo ,
Hurry , that's joti , is it ? " The ether
wife remarked : "Yes , that is Harry. "
Having fully identified him , they
repaired to the grand jury room and
there gave their evidence , on the hear
ing N ( which the jury found an indict-
mtnt for bigamy , which wai reported
to the court."c
Carpenter is nnid to bo thirty-one
yoara old , though , in procuring n
marriage license hero ho gave his
ago as twenty-eight years. Ho
formerly lived in Wheeling , West
Virginia , near which his mother still
resides. The Virginia wife marrlod
him about eleven yearn ngo. She was
a ochool girl nt the time , a daughlor
of n grocoryman named Henry .Rob
inson. Her father had placed her nt
a female college , intending to glvo her
a thorough education , but aho bo-
canto infatuated with Carpenter , and
was marriftd to him. They had four
children , two of whom Hvo with their
mother , and the other two in a chil
dren's homo at Wheeling. Oarpontor
kept n produce store and fish market
there until about thrco years ugo ,
when ho loft the city suddenly , it being
ing claimed that ho hud become sadly
involved by gambling.
Carpenter wrote his wife that ho
waa going to Sanduuky on business ,
and BgMii wrote her from Co'umbus
saying ho would return soon , but she
hoard no moro from him , until the
ootrespondonco opened loading to fits
arrest in the eastern part of thin state.
Carpenter appeared in Council
Bluffs as n clerk attho Western house ,
and hero formed the acquaintance of
Mies Raohol Stevens , whoso widowed
mnthor lives on 1'iurco street. The
girl was only sixteen , and becoming
infatuated with him waa married to
him n few months ago. Ho suddenly
disappeared about the time that aho
discovered herself to bo in n condition
most needing a husband's care. In
her efforts to find him aho wrote a letter -
tor to his mother , Mrs. Ellen Carpen
ter , in Virgin'- ' * , tolling her the cir
cumstances. Strangely enough hla
Virginia wifa'a namo'ia also Ellen , and
the letter fell Into her banda inatoad
of the mother's. She replied at once ,
telling of her txlutonce , and asking
particulars.
From this correspondence resulted
the arrest of Carpenter. Ho had
written to hla wlfo hero from Bis-
marok , Iowa , near Burlinpton , sign
ing hia name Harry J , Montague , and
Oflicer Edgar being aout thither ar
rested him and brought him to this
city.Ho
Ho will probably have his trial at
ho present term of court , nnd it is
Moult to BOO how ho can manage to
scap < 9 from the punishment which
coins ready to drop upon him.
It is understood that there ia some
ittor foollnp between Carpenter's
mother and his Virglnlu wife , and that
n account of statements made by the
ormor the wife intends commencing
uit againat her mother-in-law for do-
atuation of character.

BOLL ) ROGUES.
They Fleece an Old Gentleman Out ot
a Fat Holt of Money.
A very bold confidence game nnd
robbery waa played successfully on the
incoming train ou the Chicago &
Rock Island road. The victim was n
rather elderly gentleman ou route for
Columbus , Neb. , with whom the
sluirpara foil in conversation. They
represented themselves as merchant ? ,
who liad baen to Ohicigo buying gooda ,
nnd while chatting along "tho ex
press own" cam'j in aa usual in turning
a trick nnd demanded Homo $40 ex
press charged. The victim was naked
to lend the amount , and the usual
profler of n check was made , which
was drawn on a Coluoibus bank for
$000 , and facetiously Ligned "Chairs
ft Tables. " The victim was induced
to lend the required amount
on this security and as he
was counting out the money from his
pc ckotbook , ono of the'sharpers grab
bed the pockolbook saying that they
had got to get nff there to see tbout
the gooda , nnd ho could draw the dif
ference on the chock when bo got to
Columbus , another pulled the cord
putting on the air brake , and the
crooks jumped the train , taking the
entire amount of the paesengors wealth ,
about $180. The officers here were
nt once notified , nnd they have kept
on the lookout for the rascals since ,
but of course , without capturing them.
There are a number ot crooks hang
ing about tha city , any ono of whom
would bo likely to do such a trick , and
yet they are ao slippery that it la dif
ficult to catch them in uny apacifio net.
The city can bo mado'oo warm for
thorn , however , if they were prosecut
ed for vagrancy , as they well might
bn , for the city ordinance
provides that "All persons having
tbo reputation and character of being
cappura of gnmblere , all persons hav
ing the reputation of being "three-
card rnonto men , " etc. , are vagrants ,
and as such lUb'o to a fine of $100.
fc If arrested on such a cbnrge , oven
if not convicted , these follows would
soon got out of the way , ns they dia-
like the publicity arising from snob
nrroati , but it seems an if it would be
no very difficult matter to convict
the m , s there soema an abundance of
evidence to show that they have the
reputation of crooks , at least , and it
would remain for them to show tlmt
they are engaged in a legitimate busi
ness , which would give them a tight
pinch.

Yesterday afternoon a laborer

death nt the lower yard of the Chicago
cage , Milwaukee & St. Paul railway
A construction train was being pushed
along the track near the yardmaator'a
office , nnd n crowd of Inborcrs were on
the flit cars. The way car had been
uncoupled and as some of the labor-
era began slopping over onto the c rte
to got tools , ole , . ono of the rnllwty
men ou the pay car called to them to
got bck as the c\t WAB detached nnd
the train nbout to shirt. They did
not hood the warning , howovcr , nnd
as the slack wna token npin the train ,
there woo i\s \9 usual , n alight j r or
jerk. Etthor this or the crowd of la-
honirs puohititr against him , canted
Kickonburg to fall off the end of. the
flat car , Ilo fell on hin
hands ni.d knees iu the middle
of the track. The brake-beam
caught him , turned him over , nnd the
Mhcela of the next car passed over
