Alleged Grafter Deniei Story and
Says Prominent Men in Omaha
Can Identify Him.
DBS MOINES, April 24.-Claimlng to
represent the British consul at St. Louis In
behalf of "Lord" Barrington In the peni
tentiary for life for the murder of John
C. McCann of St. IjoiiIs, Miss Lillian Gates
of St. Louis cr sted a Sensation by appear
ing In the United States marshal's office
today and identifying James C. Marybrsy,
alleged fake horse race promoter as being
McCann, the victim of Barrington. The
Identification Impressed the United States
officials and they claim to give credene to
her storv. It developed later In the day
that Mlsa Gates was a friend of Barrington,
that ahe had made the same claim of other
men and that she Is engaged In an
endeavor to get Barrington out of prison.
Later In the day C. A. Demlng of St. Louis,
a gain broker, appeared at the federal Jail
and examined Maybray. Demlng asserts
that he knew McCann In 8t. liOuls and
while Maybary bore a strong resemblance
he could not positively swear that they
wer on and th same person. Police of
ficials here are Inclined to doubt th
woman's story.
Maybray. when seen today, said:
"There Is nothing to It. The woman Is
era ly. f was born in Mississippi, lived In
Oniahs for years and worked as a hired
hand for ex-Oovernor Boyd. Hundreds of
tbe prominent citizens of Omaha have
known me for years, t bought cattl and
horses off the ranches In Nebraska and
sold them In th stock yards of Omaha. I
never had any other name and thla can be
verified In Omaha by most sny prominent
man In town.
CHICAGO. April 24. Consul F.rskln
denies that Mrs. Laura Gates of St. Louis,
who Is reported to have Identified ths
Tes Moines prisoner ns McCann. la In
the employ of the. British consul.
'I have beard of 'Mrs. Gates."' said
Ersklne. "but never have seen her. Bh
has written mo letters protesting 'Lord
Harrington's' Innocence, but never has
been In my office to my knowledge. She
certainly Is not attached to th office in
any official capacity. I have known tlus t
she was personally Interested In 'Lord
Harrington's' cave, r'he clnlms to have
known him In England."
ST. LOUIS. Mo.. April 24. "Ridiculous"
was the general characterisation her of
the report frorti Dee Moines that J. C.
Maybray is really McCann. for whoan
murder "Lord Barrington" Is serving a
life sentence st Jefferson City. Former
officials concerned In the prosecution de
clare the eMtnbllshment of the corpus
delicti In the ess was made beyond any
reasonable doubt and add that similar at
tempts to identify Maybray as Harring
ton's victim have been made, chiefly by a
woman who has been Interested in the
prisoner.
