the Atchison when the Alton announced Its

before the rcferco rclntlvo to the printing

the last presidential campaign for the repub

the testimony of ox-Sonntor Daggett of
Brooklyn At the request of General Dudley
and James P.Foster , , ho was asked to prepare -
pare circulars to bo sent to different classes
of voters Ono was sent to these who voted
for the grandfather of the president nnd who
could bo relied upon to feel a sentimental In
to rest in the campaign of the grandson An
other circular wns for first time voters nnd
General Dudley explained that It was neces
sary to tickle young fellows so they might
see they jvoro getting attention There were
also circulars to suit the opinions of manu
facturers , for these who had voted for Cleve
land and might bo expected to vote for Harrison
risen and for these who voted for llluino and
might not vote for Harrison Ho said he was
Instructed to go to the national committee
and irot funds The checks were made paya
ble to Mr Foster and ho turned them over
to him
Daggett said General Dudley had unfolded
to him a good plan to raise funds , but be
hoped the rcforee would not require him to
glvo away that secret of the organization ,
and no questions were nskod bearing on it
Ho sent out millions of documents , an
average of 25,000 circulars daily , always oy
mail , however , as the nostal service then
was under the control of the other party and
they could not put full conlldeuco In it
Charges had once been made while the re
publicans were in power , that the tiuins
had been lightened of democratic postal
cards while crossing the rivers , and thosamo

the AfTnlr Morr Shoot

IIIh Nnmn Is Henrv Cook
. Learning that Mr Mnul of Drexel & Maul ,
undertakers , had said ho fbrmerly know
the man Cook , who committed Rulcldo at the
Millard hotel Thursday night by shooting
himself , n Bnu reporter called on him Inst
night to nsceitain what ho had known As
there had been great uncertainty ns to the
Idontlty oMho deceased , the ropartor's first
question wus whetbor Mr Maul was posi
tive on that , point With a uyntcu laugh
nnd toss ot his head , Mr Maul replied i
Certainly I know hlui 1 ltnow htm well ,
nnd thcro's ' not thdslightest doubt about Its
being the same Cook whom people said
burned his house out nt West Side , on the
Bolt line , and skipped to Oklahoma "
How long had you known hlnil"
"I dent know exactly , but n long tl mo "
Did ho have n wlfo hero lu town I"
Yes , nnd she was here about 0 o'clock
this evening "
Has she soon the romatus , and docs she
Identify theml" oonttnuod the reporter
Yes , and was torrlbly nffectod by the
sight That Is ' hair
, exclaiming ! Henrys ,
and his nose , but somehow the rest of his
lnco dent ' look right I wonder if it could
not bu htm '
That final oxclnmation was a llttlo
strange , wasn't itl"
Perhaps so , but not nny more strange
than some ether things you will hear later "
" What's the naturootthesoothortlllng3 , , ,
Well , thoro's a sonsatlon in the case , and
a big ono , too You'll hoar of some moro
shooting befoio this matter is cleared up "
"Whut do you moan by that ! "
" 1 that thoro's nnothor
moan woman in the
case She was ever to Hoafoy & Hoafoy's
undertaking rooms twlco today , and she
says that the body Cooks is that of her
husband "
"Descrlho the Mrs Cook who was here to
see you , nnd whom you say you know to bo
the real wlfo of the dead man "
She is a slender , dark comploxloncd
woman about thirty years old She lias three
chlldrou , one six years , nnother ubout four ,
and nn Infant about a month old She und
Cook were married in Toronto , Canada , and
her father Is now a well-to-do boot und shoe
man of that city She has boon in very
strnltonod circumstances ail this whiter
supported by the county She nnd Cook had
trouble last summer , and I think both of
them applied for a divorce "
Going over to Hoafey & Hcafey's , whnro
the body lay , the reporter found ono of the
firm nnd Coroner Harrigan there ,
nnd nsked thorn who this ether
woman was Coroner Harrigan replied
that for what ho considered the best of pri
vate reasons , nnd in order to get to the bottom
tom ot the mystery that had dovcloped , ho
would withhold her name He Said she did
not claim , so far ns ho had hoard , to bo the
deceased's ' wife , but simply nn old friend ,
who uad evidently become much attached to
Cook She met him first nbout eighteen
months ago She came from Chicago and
wns now employed in a clerical capacity in
this city She was of good figure , about
thirty-two yeara old , blue eyes and ladyhko
in appearance „
The reporter , next hunted up Clorlt
Moorcs .oftho distriot court , and with him
Searched the records for proceedings insti
tuted under the name of Cook The result
was productive ot throwing n great deal of
light on the mystery
As the following will show the dead mans
nnmo is beyond nil doubt not E J. Cook , "
as ho registered it at tbo hotel Just before
killing himself , but Henry Cook , as the other
party to the litigation , noted below , is Annie
L. Cook , the same woman who called and
was unable , ns she claimed , to identify the
dead man ; this fact being established by Mr
Maul ' ,
Here Is the substance of n potltion for dl-
vorco filed by Henry Cook In August lust :
"Thut said plaintiff nnd defendant were
married about the month of Mnrch , 1892 , at
Toronto , Canada , nnd thut said plaintiff has
resided nt Omaha , Douglas county , 3tnto of
Nebraska , for two years lastpast ; thutduring
the whoio of the plaintiffs and defendants
married life said plaintiff has . couductcd
himself towards said defendant us a loving ,
faithful , chaslo and devoted husband ; * *
* that said dolondnnt . * < * hus been
guilty of continual cruel and inhuman treat
ment toward said plaintiff for two yours last
past , and during said period said dofondnnt
has been guilty of oxtrumo crudity towards
said plaintiff ; wherefore , suid plaintiff de
mands und prays thut ho may be divorced "
Ou September 11 , 18S9 , Mrs Cook , the
trefondant , filed a brief answer to the nbovo
potltion , denying ouch and every allegation
She also lilod , on the tame duto , a
p tton | | for alimonv , in which she
suys alio Is wholly nnd entirely
without , means to defend bis uetion
for divorce , or to support herself during its
pondonry , nnd states that there tire now
living two chlldrou ns the issue of said mar
rhigo ( with Henry Cook ) , the names and
ngos of which nro ns follows : Henry Pen
man Cook , aged six yours , and Thomas Lay
ton Cook , nged twp years , and that both ot
said children are and have been in ( her )
support ; . " * * that the plaintiff ( Henry
Cook ) is possessed of tlio following real
estate , to-wit : Lots 15 and 10 in Greenwood
addition to the city of Omaha , in the county
of Douclus , state of Nebraska ; two town
lots In the city ot King Fisher , Oklahoma ;
nnd 1G0 acres of lnnd m Oklahoma ,
and forty acres ot land near the city
of Elkhorn , Neb , all of which
real estate is ontlroly or almost paid for ,
nnd that his Interest In Bald real estate is ot
tbo value of $1,000 ; that said Henry Cook is
possessed of porsoual property of the vuluo
of 11,000 ; that ho earns $10 per day at his
business "
A third filing by Mrs - Cook , on the same
day , - is a petition for the care and custody Of
the children , nud charges thai Henry Cook ,
her husband , abandoned tbo llttlo ones , and
has contributed nothing toward their sup
port or maintenance ; that hois n man totalv !
unfit to be intrustod with the euro or custody
ot the children ; that ho is a man of violent
passions , quick to anger and is
cruel and • Inhuman : that bo has
repeatedly assaulted und wounded and
greatly brulsod" her and the children , nnd
that ono of the children still bears upon his
forehead scare from wounds Indicted by said
plaintiff ; that said assaults have been fre
quent , severe and painful upon her and both
ot the children
The court records further show that on
May 14 , 1SS8 , Annto L. Cook commenced
piocoodlugs against Henry Cook to recover
a deed whicn ho had obtained fiom her , she
alleges by misrepresentation She also
charges that ho borrowed SS70 of her and
never paid her back , and she iropeats her al
legations that bo treated her in a torrlbly
brntal manner •
No final action was bad regarding any ot
those papers ro fur as thu records show (
At the request of Mrs Annie L. Cook , nt
tlio time of her call last evening , Mr Maul ,
who , us previously stated , is an old ac
quaintance , telegraphed her brother-in-law ,
Robert Cook , Boston , Mass , of the suloldo
and asking advice
After considerable hesitation Mr Maul
told the reporter that ho was of tbo opinion
thut Mrs Cooks intimation that she did not
fully identify the remains was owing to the
clrcumstauces In which she jiartod from her
husband *
