FORMER OMAHA
WOMAN APPEARS
III N. Y, COURTS
(Continued From Pago One.) '
by th PeopK's National bank of
Ottawa, Kan.
Snatch Her Money. .
Returning to her lodging house
on -North Fourteenth street, -carrying
the small fortune in a hand
bag, twt men rushed upon her in
front of the Dellone hotel, at Four
teenth and Chicago streets, accord
ing to her story, and snatching the
handbag and money from hei
grasp, made their escape. She turn
ed in time to identify the two rob
bers as James L. Rush and James
Hogan, residents of Ottawa, Kan.-
There were no bystanders nor
spectators to the robbery, to whom
she could appeal to for help, and she
hurried to the police station to re
port her loss. '
The Bee had 'the exclusive story
of the robbery the day it occurred
and the reporter got from the wo
man a thrilling tale of cattle rust
ling and high life as it was livei
among the sporting 'elements of the
cattle country in those days.
Tells Weird Tale.
It was a weird tale the woman
had been the mistress of James
L. Rush, so she said, whom she
described as a "dead game sport,"
chief of a band of cowboys who
frequently made predatory' trips in
to Texas, where they rustleS large
hgrds of cattle. She declared that
they drove the animals to remote
parts of the Indian territory where
the cowboys, with branding iftms,
mutilated and altered the original
brands on the cattle.
By her detailed description, Rush
made 4iis headquarters at Kansas
City, where he was the "Beau Brum
mel of the sporting frateinity fre
quentliQghe "Turf" saloos, playing
the races and was hale fellow, well
met to the denizens of the half
world. He always hadrplently of
money, which he spent with a lavish
hand.
-. . Held Fortune a Year. . . '
The Russell woman said she was
loyal to her paramour until he be
came infatuated wfHi another wo
man. In a rage she then went to
him, accused, him ol unfaithfulness,
threatened to expose his nefarious
deeds, and demanded a settlement so
they could come to a parting of the
ways. To satisfy her he deposited
to her credit the sum of $10,000 in
the bank of Ottawa, Kan., where she
kept it for a year, then came to
Omaha and cashed the draft which
represented that deposit.
The tale naturally created a great
sensation. When the story was in
vestigated John L. Rush was identi
fied as Usher, ' wealthy landowner
of Leavenworth Kan.where he had
an estate of 1,000 acres and large
herds of cattle., '

cabinet, and a brother of S. C.

before. ,
After the publication, Usher
brought suit, agairrst The Bee for
$50,000, setting up that he had been
Established 1890.
libeled and his business , standing
injuria, He declared he was a re
spectable stockman, with large land
interests near Leavenworth and
Ottawa, Kan., and that the story
was a wild fabrication.
John C. Cowin was attorney for
Usher and John L. Webster for The
Bee. The case was triedin the fed
eral district court and many leading
citizens of Leavenworth county were
brought to Omaha to testify as to
Usher's character.
The defense of The Bee was that
it haa only published the story the
woman had told, without malice or
intent to injure the plaintiff.
On December IS of the fsame
year, while the case was on trial,,
Mrs. FUretta s Russell was sub
poenaed, under the name of Flor
etta Steigrs, to appear as a witness,,
but before service, it was found that
she had mysteriously disappeared.
The verdict of the jury vindicated
Usher ry an award of $500, which
was also regarded as establishing
the good faith of The Bee.
Had a Number of Names.
It has since developed that the
woman bore a number of names.
She lived as Mrs. Russell, in 1892,
at 2420 Burdette street. She was
also knovfcn as Nettie Trussell, Net
tie Steigefrs and Florette Steigers,
although tnose names do nof appear
in the directories of those years.
Mrs. Russell Steigers-TriisseH, in
her psesent suit for separation, pur
ports to be the wife of E. A. Trus
sell, by a "common law union at
Lawrence, Kan., April 10, 1887.
Combatting this, the defendant,
Trussejl, denies such marriage. He
is supposed to be living in retire
ment in New York City and to be
possessed of a comfortable compe
tence, out of which the woman
wants an allowance.
Burgess-Nash Company
Gives a Dance for Employes
Several hundred employes of tfie
Burgess-Nash comany and about
100 of the soldiers from Fort Oma
ha were given a dance Friday eve
ning at the Metropolitan hall by
the Burgess-Nash Welfare associa
tion. During the evening a sho4 vaude
ville performance was given, in
cluding a littye musical comedy.
This is the first of a series of
dances and entertainments to be
given by the association for their

Refreshments were served during

the tompany were eager to know
the date of the next affair.

which entered Brussels yesterday,
with King Albert. One battalion
of fine-looking fellows from the
Ninety-first division, which comes
from the coast states, was followed
by abattery of artillery from the
Fifty-third brigade. .
No finer troops marched through
Brussels today than the Yankees
and none, except perhaps the Bel
gians, were given a heartier recep

the battlefields, for they are the
troops which fought so brilliarttly
in the drive for Audenarde, just
before the armistice was signed.
