G IN OUR STATE THE MYSTERY WHICH STARTLED SAGINAW IS PARTLY SOLVED. WOMAN PROTECTS MAN Refuses to Tell Who Was Responsible for Her Disgrace and Claims That Drowning Was Accidental. The police have discovered the mother of the baby who was found drowned in the river at Saginaw. She is Miss Mabel Lennon, who resides with her widowed mother at 873 North Fourth street. She has been working as a telephone operator and helping to support her mother. She has been placed under arrest, together with Jo seph Duffy, who is suspected of hav ing been the go-between, carrying money and messages to the girl from the father of the child. Miss Lennon admits to the police that she is the mother of the child. She did not make the admission, however, until the two nurses from the woman's hospital, who attended her there as Mrs. J. C. Os ton, were taken to police headquarters and positively identified her as the mother of the infant and the woman who had taken the baby away in a coupe the night it was drowned. Miss Lennon declared the drown ing was accidental, denying almost hysterically that she had murdered the baby. She said: "I left the hospital with the intention of going away from Saginaw for a time until I could leave the baby at some institution or find a home for it. I intended taking a train from the Pere Marquette station for Flint, but as I was known here I de cided to have the cabman drive me across the river at Mershon, which is an out-of-the-way place, and Just be fore the train arrived, cross the bridge and board it. The night was dark and after the cab left I walked with the baby, which had awakened and was crying. I was afrafci some one would hear it crying and carried it up and down the street as I had seen the nurses do at the hospital to quiet It. After I had succeeded in quieting the baby I walked to the bridge and laid the baby on the rail of the bridge to rest myself. Then the baby suddenly awakened and rolled off into the wa ter." She still protects the name of her lover, and has defied all the efforts of the police to wring his identity from her. Girl Suicide. Captola Henderson. 20, daughter of John Henderson, a tenant farmer liv ing near Charlotte, committed suicide by injecting carbolic acid Into her sys tem. The attitude of the body when found showed that she had died in in tense agony. The young woman left the house about 8:30 o'clock, telling her parents that she was going to pick blackberries. At 11 o'clock, whe she did not return, a search was made for her, and her dead body was found face downward, with a half empty bottle of carbolic acid nearby. A short distance away was the Instrument with which she had injected the fluid. A scream was heard coming from the direction of the berry patch a short time before she was found, but the glrl'B parents paid no attention to It. The Woman's Choice. There was a dramatic interruption to the marriage of Wm. J. Hildebrand and Mrs. Nettie Chestnut Cleveland, of Hillsdale. When the officiating min ister asked the usual question as to whether anyone knew of any obstacle to the wedding, the woman's first husband, from whom she was di vorced several years ago, arose, claimed her as his wife and said he wanted her.

After having broken through a cor don of sheriff's deputies and dodged a posse of 40 farmers who were hunt ing for her in the wilds of Bay coun ty, Mrs. Elizabeth Barnett has beet captured through the cleverness of John McDonald, who keeps the Til lage hotel in Crump, Baldwin county. Mrs. Barnett had traveled 50 miles across country living on what she could pick up for three days and two nights and sleeping in the open. She arrived in Estey, Baldwin county, Wed nesday, and to avoid suspicion made Inquiries about some relatives who, she said, had squatted in the north western part of the county. Samuel Walker, a resident of Estey, said he was going about 20 miles in that direction and offered -to give her a lift. Mrs. Barnett accepted and drove with him to Crump. There she put up at McDonald's hotel and was recognized by the hotelkeeper, who had seen her In Jail when he was on a visit to Bay City recently. He betrayed no suspicion, but when the woman had retired for the night he quietly telephoned to Sheriff Hart ley, who immediately got a team and brought her back. She says she did not escape from the sheriff, but that he went away and left her in the swamp. She was coming back any way, she says, to giv herself up. Ionia Has Fire Bugs. Six fires of incendiary origin in as many weeks have put Ionia people in a state of apprehension closely border ing on terror. The work of the fire bugs culminated Sunday in the burn ing of the abadoned city hall, which spread to the city opera house and the residence of Benjamin Shuts, doing about $2,000 damage on those two places. The identity of the incendiary and his motive are puzzles to the local officials. It was thought that the mys tery was solved when William Cicero was arrested three weeks ago and was said to have confessed to firing the hall over Phelps' grocery store. Cicero has been confined in Jail ever since and there have been two fires of the same character as the others. Careless Hunter Killed. With the lower part of his face completely shot away and a charge of shot in his brain, John Cattell, of Grass Lake, lived six hours Saturday, dying In a Jackson hospital. Cattell went hunting in the afternoon taking with him for company two of the Grass Lake village boys. They had gotten about two miles from town when Cattell. pausing to rest, leaned his chin on the muzzle of his gun.

THAW'S BANKRUPTCY ACT A Reorganization of a Great Flour Company Thaw and His Finances Fleet Is in Auckland Harbor. One of the largest bonds ever rec orded in the federal court in Minneap olis was executed last week by the three receivers for the Plllsbury. Washburn Flour Mills Co. When Federal Judge Milton D. Purdy ap pointed the receivers he gave them five days to file the bond of $500,000, but placed the property of the com pany In their hands at once for opera tion. The condition which made neces sary the reorganization of the com pany, said to be the largest in the world, was not due to lack of busi ness. The business of the company was $22,000,000 in the last fiscal year. Charles W. Ford, of Hathaway & Co., commercial paper brokers, of New York, who resides in Chicago, was in court when the petition was filed with Judge Purdy. He acquiesced in the arrangement and his action represent ed three-fifths of the paper Indebted ness, or $1,500,000.

Once he is free, according to a close friend of the family, Harry intends entering on a new era, which comprehends the renouncing of his former methods of life. With tears in her eyes and her voice trembling with emotion, Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw denied that she is responsible for her husband's des perate financial condition. In sorrow rather than in anger she refuted the statement of ex-Gov. Stone, of Pitts burg, who filed the petition in bank ruptcy in behalf of Thaw, that her extravagance resulted in Thaw's em barrassment. Attorney Daniel O'Reilly, who is credited with doing much of the work to keep Thaw from the chair, and who has been a close friend of both Mr. and Mrs. Thaw throughout the long case, was astoumned when he heard that Thaw had filed a petition In bankruptcy. He said: "I am going to . take steps at once to protect my claim. He says he owes me $5,000. He owes me more than that and what is more, he will pay it." O'Reilly may ask to have Mrs. Thaw appointed guardian of the estate and person of her husband. Battleships in Auckland. The American battleship fleet splashed its anchors in the bay in front of Auckland at 8:38 Sunday morning. Almost on the precise minute 8 o'clock set by the commander-in-chief Rear Admiral Sperry, the Con necticut poked her nose into the glass like waters of the harbor, and, fol lowed by the others In single forma tion, swept up to anchorage. Long be fore daylight thousands of Auckland ers and visitors gathered along the water front to await the coming of the ships. Some brought blankets and food with them. The crowd cheered itBelf hoarse from the moment the ships appeared and fairly went mad with enthusiasm when the firing of salutes had been concluded. Despite the fact that this is the Ixrd's day, Auckland is making a festival of the arrival and if this morning's demon stration is any criterion, then the American sailor is in for one of the "times of his life" as long as the fleet remains there. The Sultan Stabbed. The sultan of Turkey was stabbed In the breast on Monday night by a minor police official. The coat of mail which the sultan always wears deflect ed the blow.
