WHERE'S LILLIAN? '
Miss Rnsseli Reported to Have Eloped
from Chicago and " The Brigands."
Denials that Wealthy William 0.
San ford Left with Her.
Miss Russell's Mother Says It's Too
Absurd to Bo True.
She Has Und a Surfeit of Foolishness,
und Wouldn't Kly with Any 3Iun.
A report from Chicago this morning that
Lillian llussell, the fio.diy and beautiful heroine
of " The Brigands. " had oloped with William C.
Banford set all dudodom on tho tiptoe of ox--pectaney..
Tho giddy yonng things, so the story-went,
woro in Chicago last night when they decided
to "cut and run."
Miss liussoll was filling her rolo in "Tho
Brigands" acceptably at McVickcr's Thcatio
and Mr. Banford was thero to admire her.
Ho is thirty-flvo years old. Lillian is not finite
as old as that; at least sho saja she isn't, andsho
ought to know.
Tho story that was sent out to startlo tho town
to-day was to tho effect that Mr. Baulord, pcre,
had sent a nieseago oidirmg his son to couio
homo and Icavo that woman alone.
This sensational piece of information may
have stnr'.lid mino of tho commuu.ty, but it
only caused llpplcs of lneirinient among tho
initiated, for Mr. Sanfoid has been running
away with the lair Lillian lor the last two veal s;
that is travelling whero sho travelled, and thoy
oiiiiur uid,ii iiiuiiii.'
Mr. Bai'tord comes of a wealthy family, and is
anilllionaiieiii his own light.
Ho is u member of tho gnat carpet mannfac
ttiiiug firm of Stophou Banford A Sous, of which
his father is the head.
Ho is a member of the Union Club and tho
Meadow Brook Kenilol Club.
Ho is not a strictly handsomo fellow, but ho
is big and powortul. with a frank open face,
v ci y detci minod-looking and possesses a stj lisli
black mustache.
Ills father knows full well that ho is able to
takocnio of hinixulf, and would not dicimof
iutcrtiriug with his amusement, Chpecmlly
whero a woman was eoncirned.
Ml. Ilauford has been ou tho best of terms
with Lillian HushuII fin at least thrto years.
Two veais ago last Hummer his name first
bogau to be generally spokon of in connection
with hers, when they might ho kcoh daily vv Hik
ing or riding togettioi at Saiatiua, vvhoio ho
had a string of racors. When sho was playing
hero he had rooms at tho .St. James and tho
Victoria.
He could bo frequently seon conversing with
prominent turf and club men oppo-uto tho
Caaiuo while waiting for Lillian to finish her
Htio lived at 102 Wost Tvvcntv-nlnth stroot,
but her last addtons iu town was 231 Wist

Sautnrdls thu man who was said to nave
slapped l'nddy Ocbluird'H lacu in Deluionico's
a fen ytarsago bicauxo tho lattir ruHouted what
liocousldored an aspersion on tho fatuoof Lily
Langlry.
Banford was mado famous ovou before that
though, as the owner ot Post (luaid, tho gland
old steeplechaser who won twenty-flvo out of
twimtv.sevcn racos ut HIh-opsIkiiiI.
Au LvtsiMi Woiii.d repoiter this morning
waited ou Mrs. Cynthia Leonard, thoniajtstio
hub who enjoys the distinction of having ai
sisted at Lillian's appearance into tins wicked
......i.i
Mrs. Lconaid had not yet shaken the olvet
weight ot slumber from hi r eyelids, but shortly
entered the room, hoi tall form looscl) draped
in a quilted silken wiappi r ol loyal puiplu hue,
and with hn blonde locks In a light and any
whirl about her classic head.
" Is it tine that Miss llussell has run away?"
asked the leportei.
"Hun away! No!' exclaimed Mrs. Leonard.
"Whcio would sho run to 7 And what would
ho rim fur ?" . . , , ,
"There is a report that sho has fled with Mr.
Sanford," said thu tt porter.
Mirth and scorn collided on Mrs. Leonards
molnlo face. ... ,,...

" How old is Mr. Banford?"
"Fiom the way he acts, about nlno." said
Mrs. Leonard, blithels and piomptly. "In
point of fact, he is thirty.elght."
"Ho has been paying Lillian attentions for

she never mentions Ran ford becauso she knows
how wo feel about him. I know that thero is no

his pertinacity. Ho wants to niako money out

At tho Casino this morning, noither Mr.
Aronson nor Mr. Barton could be found, but
an attache scolled at tho idea of " Will Banford
running away wilh Miss llussell." ,
"But do you know whether she has left
Chicago or not?" asked tlwrcpoitcr.
"I can't answer that. Wo havo telegraphed
on tor information, but havo received so far no
answer."
At H. Banford A-Bon's office. 801) Broadway,
the manager said that Ml. Will Bainon! had
hem in New Yoi It for a fortnight and was now
here. Ho denied emphatically tho lepoit that
Mr. Saulord had an) tiling to do with Miss Bus
