Jlartln set value apart from Its Intrinsic
wortn, whiuli wnx larije, aslndloutel by
the reward of 100 which she offered for
its recovery. A most minute search
w.is made throunhout the legation, hut
no truce of the jewel was found.
i The butler was nut suipjcted, and no
one thouuht of asking htm any ques
tions. Great was the surprte, there- i
fore, of Milliliter Lincoln, .iliont u week; I
after th- toss of the dlamon I spray, i
Thompson went to Scotland Yard and
contested that lis bad. t.ikjti Airs. Mar
tin's Jewelry, and that: he felt it a duty
tn surrender uliusolt for punishment".
He said that over sluca tho robberv his i
cfHcienco had been tov.ineiit!iij him.
The,man's. story wns not altcigitlior
coherent. Ho could not or did not tell
what ho had done with the Jewel. Tho
police thought likely that the mm was
Insane, mid they transferre I him to the
King streot police station, there to be
closely watched for uuy evidence of lu
sutiity. Minister Lincoln apparently believed
the Insanity theory, for he insisted that
Tliomtmm should be rola.ua I if llu po
lice did not consider that there w.ts evi
dence to justify his protection. Of
course, the butlor, upon either theory
of insanity or probable guilt, could not
be taken b ick Into the service of Mr.
Lincoln, und Thompson went forth to
the world that must forlorn of human
beings, an Kngllsh house servant with
out a character. . ,
Thompson, doprlved of lls means of
livelihood and shuntiod by'. his'. former
associates, brooded over his condition.
He sought omployment, but was unable
to get any engagement except the care
of an empty house. ,
On Tuesday evening ho said to his
wife: ''I inn feeling tired. I think I will
He down." He went upstairs. A few
moments after his wife heard the noise
which aroused her suspicion that some
thing was wrong. She- rushed upstairs.
The blood was flowing from a woitni In
her husband's throat, and he was still
hacking away as If determined to make
sure work of It. As she ran towards
him he felt dying in her arms, and tho
blood splashed over hor dress.
Publio opinion Inclines to the belief
that Thompson was guilty of ste.ilinz
Mrs. Martin's jewel, and that his con
duct at the time of his confession, which
the police thought pointed to insanity,
was really the expression of the mental
torture which he endurel In contem
plating bis guilt aud consequent loss' of
character.
Thompson had many friends arid
sympathizers, who are contributing
liberally to his funeral expenses. 'These
hold that the man was Innocent uud
that his self-nccusatlnu was caused by
Uls.Jraln being rdisordert;d over the
mystery of tho robbery and the idea
that suspicion might possibly attach to
him. ....

New York, Da 17. As a prelude
to what will doubtloss prove to be one
ha most sensational nud Interesting
divorce suits ever tried in this country,
testimony is being taken before Daniel
Lbrd, jr., who has been appointed
referee, in his office In the Equitable
lluitning. The Darties interested are
Mr. junl Mrs. James Q. Illalne, jr., the
sou iv (I dnughter-ln-luwof the Secretary
of State.
The trial will take plaoo In the South
Dakota courts In FoiiruaVy, and It Is pos
sible that the taking of testimony will
lust into January, f
Few, if any, who have seen these two
persons visiting the Kqultable Unllding
every day havo known their Identity.
Young HI ii I ue is always fashionably
dressed, and his pretty wife, who seeks
tho divorce on the ground of abandon
ment and non-Htipiinrt, has come on
from Dead wood, S. D., where she has
made her homo exproisly for this pur
pose. Bho Is always heavily veiled and very
pretty, although pain and trouble have
somewhat marred Iter features. Hor
lawyers are Iloadley, LHiiterbaoh &
Johnson, her busb m i's legil advisers
being Goodrich, Drndy & Goo Irlch.
None of the evidence so far given has
boeu made public, but It Is understood
that the ulMudoiiLd w.fo has established
a case snfllcleiiily clear to secure a ver
dict in her favor.
Mr. Johnson said this morning that
when .Mrs. illalne secures her divorce,
and he bus no doubt Whatever but that
It will lie given her, It will ha perfectly
legal and good in this State anil France,
from tho fact that her husband has
mado an answer.
Had he not done so the dlvorco would
not be roconizjil In this country. In
regard to the temporary alimony and
counsel fees amounting f $)), grant
ed to Mrs. lil.ilno on Monliy, Mr.
Johnson said that this amount must be
paid In order tint the husband may go
on with the qontest. If not paid with
in 10 days sho will secure her divorce,
and young lllnino can inaita nn.det.iuce.
Young illalne is milking every effort
to prevent tho divorce being granted.
