Awful Kxpcrlcnco of a Maiden wttli
Human Wolves.
Last evening warrants were Issued for the
arrest of Nelllo CroyVillardJnmos and
Wells uoon the chat-go of conspiracy and
criminal assault. The complainant was
C. L. Frisby , who lives near the
corflor of Twelfth avenue ana Third
strout , and the victim of the crime
was Lulu , his IC-ycar-old daughter. The
warrants wcro issued by Justice Hummer.
Nellie Crow was found in the Stella Long
bacnlo on Plerco street , Jame was found at
William Martin's barn , for whom ho drives
hack , bui Wells heard the news in time to
skip to Omaha , nnd was not found at all.
The story told by Mr. Frisby , who has
worked for the past nlno years' for the
Decro-WcUs company , is a sad one. The
daughter has learned the dressmaking trade ,
and has worked for the past four months
wltli Miss Bcitch , In the Murrlatn
block. Two weeks ago sno left
homo In the early evenlnsr , after
telling her parents that she was kOing to
tbo room of her employer , in the Merriam
block In answer to an invitation to a higti
( Ivor-arty. She did not , return until alter 0
o'clock the next morninp. , 'i'lio excuse that
she staid with her triunds all night was
roadlly accented , but subsequent events
aroused her father's suspicion and yesterday
slio confessed the truth nnd told u terrible
.story. She was joined by the Croy girl ,
with whom she was acquainted , and when in
the vicinity of the Third street school James
and Wells appeared with a Hack.
After trying In vain to Induce her to got
into It she was FOlzod by the two men and
with the assistance of the Croy girl was
forced In the vehicle. The door WHS shut
nnd the girls wore driven around the city ,
Wells and Jaraos occupying beats with the
girls after they had secured a driver.
The girls wcro compelled to drink what Miss
Frlabv avers was drugged liquor , and frotn
that thno until morning she claims to have
had but a faint knowledge of what trans
pired. Shn recollects Hint the hack stopped
in front of the Omaha saloon on Broadway
and she was led out and Into the wlno rooms
in the roar. She has a dim rocolldc-
tlon of being taken from there to sonio cheap
hotel or lodging house whoroogreatcr purl of
the night was spent in company with the
mon. Part of the tlmo tie Croy woman was
so boisterous from the effects of her deep po
tations that James and Wells were obliged to
put ber and her companion In tlio hncic and
drive out of tovn to escape tbo police.
The Croy clrl is only 1U years old , nnd hns
only begun a llfo of open shame'slnco the
events of the night two weeks ago. Her
parents live near Hod Oak. She denies the
chnrgo of complicity In thn outrage. She
was locked up in the county jull in default of
f-'OO ball. James * bond wn& fixed at foOO ,
nnd ho secured his lloorty by his cmplovor
Illllng the bond. The cnso will bo beard in
Justice Hammer's court on Monday.
