The History of His Birth Laid Bare and Smacks Considerably of Romance. STOLEN WHEN HE WAS A BABE. An Unsuccessful Lover of His Mother Was the Kidnapper The Abduct- - or's Story. Ciiicauo. 111., Aug. 7. An nuony-mou- s letter, written in French, w as de-livered to Mr, Claude He-aire- , a young gentleman of 27, residing in handsome apartments on the West Side in this city, and its contents revealed to him his parentage aud mysterious ireum-stauce- s connected with his life, matters which had been previously a hidden secret to him. Mr. Kosaire has for sev-eral J ears been a resident ol Chicago, and recently graduated from the school of elocution iu connection with the Chi-cago Athemeum. He has for three years held a position in the Chicago board of trade. Tho story of Mr. Kosaire is a curious one, in which sorrow and vanity are strangely mingled. From tho earliest, lime In his life of which he has recol-lection, lie lived with a well-to-d- Ca-nadian family in a small lowu iu south-eastern Michigan, and was brought up to bclievo that he was nn only child of the family. Ho was treated lu every way as such, until, as narrated in tho letter which follows below.his supposed father, iu a fit of anger, declared that he was a natural son, an announcement which so keenly affected his sensitive disposition that he left his homo nover lo return. .That was in his 2;lrd year. His life from that mo-ment until tho receipt of the letter last week was full of tuiserablo uncertainty, which he succeeded iu covering from tho notice of his nciUaiulances by a persistent attention to thu work ami study which he hud undertaken. No satisfactory explanation, ludeed no ex-planation whatever, of the vague charge made against him by his foster-fathe- r came to clear the mystery In which it enveloped him until the letter made the history of his life less of an enigma than It had been. This is a lit-eral translation of tho letter: "I write this under the inspiration of the moment, although tt Is but the ques-tion of a few moments, for my physic-ians suy I can not live moro than two months. Two year ago you recited at the hospital of St. Luke. I was In the audience. I recognized you ut once, but, although 1 had been looking for you for three years, I was not satisfied to find you again.

"First, you nro legitimate and the child of mairiiige. 1 can lint keep tho secret because lean not retain life much longer, and because all human venge-ance seems useless. 1 can reveal to you almost all your life.

George Latham, I am sure, believe you to be w hat he has said, but he re-grets bitterly that he has betrayed the contidence of his sister. "I am going to tell you about your family. Your grand mot her, the mother of your mother, was the Duch-ess de Saint Allaizo, of Norinandie. Her marriage was very miserable, the Duke deSaint Allaizo being well known. After having spent the fortune of your grandmother he commenced against her a suit for divorce. Having lost love ami courage, the duchess lied lo America, taking with Iter her only child, a babyyour mother, Victoria de Saint Allaize. But a little while after her arrival in America the duchess entered the convent of the l'u,,i;ud at Vf.li- - (Irti-nni- i u here she died live years later.

They Imagine They See Euin Staring Them in the lace if a Syndicate Is Formed. THE SCAEE IN BEEEY ST. LOUIS. Grocers Celebrate Short Hand Convention Democrats and the Administr-ationBefore the Court. St. Lous, Aug. 7. Special. The saloon-keeper- s are alarmed over the re-port that the F.nglish syndicate that has purchased nearly all the breweries in the city now propose to get control of the saloons. Of course every saloon-keeper is ready to sell if he gets his price, but the English capitalists have a scheme by which they think they can effect a purchase at their own figures. They will, if the price demanded is ex-orbitant, establish saloons themselves, and sell beer at two or three cents a glass. In this way they expect to drive their rivals out of business. It is said that thoy may abandon this schemo too, and instead obtain a high license law from the legislature, which would ac-complish their purposo without much annoyance, although they believe it would be moro costly t.ian tho other course. THE DENVER NEWS SOLD. A Prominent 1'olltliiau and Lawyer. &. mm a MiOorlly of Mock. Dksvku, Aug. 7. Forsonietime there have been been various rumors in cir-culation regarding the sale of the Uocky Meuntain News to a republican syndi-cate of this city, composed of Senator Wolcott, his brother Henry Wolcott, Governor Cooper, W. II. Griffith and Hon. J. S. Clarksou of Iowa. The syn: dicate paid $10,000 on tho option, which expired at midnight last night, and as the remaining $;Kl0.0(H) was not forthcoming, Col. Jno. Arkins, president of the News com-pany, called the deal off, and this morn-ing published the following editorial; "Mr. Thomas M. Patterson has pur-chased the wholo of Mr. damns M. BurueH's stock in the Rocky Mountain News Printing company, which was full one half, and also enough of the stock owned by Mr. John Arkins to give him a majority of the slock and tho control of this paper. Mr. Patterson has determined tu retire from the practice of the law after the closing up of all his present business in thu courts by trial or otherwise, and then to assume editorial management of thu News. Although, because of his pres-sing engagements, he cannot now give his personal attention to the paper, he will hold himself responsible for its editorial utterances henceforth. Mr. Arkins will continue as herefore tho president and mauagor of the com-pany. Mr. Patterson is well known as lie is the leading democratic, politician and criminal lawyer of Colorado. Ho was a candidate for governor two years ago and was defeated by Job A. Cooper. He was territorial delegate to congress during the session of 1S73 and 17(1 and has a national reputation himself for his speech in seconding the nomination of Cleveland at the St. Louis conven-tion. ROBBERY AND ATTEMPTED MURDER. Startllne and Desperate Experience or a Man From Kansas. St. Joseph, Mo., Aug.7. J. J. Baker, a prominent attorney of Troy, Kan., and a cousin of Calvin Wyatt of this city, is lying in the Knsworth hospital suffering from the effects of a fiendish attempt to take his life. Yesterday morning about 2 o'clock, as a switch engine on the Kansas City road rounded a curve coming through the yards, a switchman who was riding on the foot-board saw tho body of a man lying di-rectly across the track. With great presence of mind he jumped from the engine as it slowed tip and pulled the body off the rails just in time to prevent it from being ground to pieces. The man was taken to a neighboring switch house where he was examined, and it was found that his right arm had been severed from tho body, and that his head was badly injured." He shortly revived and gave his. name, and at 10 o'clock yesterday morning was able to tell the story of his injuries. Sunday afternoon he visited several saloons in the vicinity of the union depot.drinking heavily. At one of the saloons, he does not remember which, he got into a con-versation with a stranger, and together they visited other saloons, so that by night he was considerably under the inlluenee of liquor. Tho last he remem-bers is that while walking down Sixth street, at a point where the street was rather dark, the stranger suddenly stepped behind him, and tlr next instant ho received a crush-ing blow, and knew no more. His idea of what followed is that the stranger, alter going through his pockets and getting what money he had, dragged him to tho railroad yards, a short distance away, and laid him across tho rails, thinking that tho first train that came along would griud him to pieces and obliterate all traces of the assault. It is supposed that a special train went through tho yards shortly before Baker was found, struck him and threw him to ouo side after cutting off his arm, and that in the struggle of partially regaining con-sciousness he rolled tack on tho tracks.

The evidence of the sleuth bed confession to the wife, now dead, is reinforced by the state-ment of Smith, who makes affidavit, that Loiknuf revealed to him the whole story of the murder from beginning to end. , The recil.il.

A SCHEME TO SECURE A BRIDE- - The Plotting That a l'oune California Man Underwent, San Fbancisco, Cal., Aug. 7 No dime novel writer ever conceived a wilder scheme than did Henry Martens, son of a well-know- produce merchant of San Francisco. For more than six months he has been in love with May Hamilton, the daughter of Robert Hamilton, a local capitalist, and lately he planned to abduct her, carry her out beyond the Golden Gate, and there have the marriage ceremony per-formed. Recently his father died, and ho came into possession of some ready money. Six weeks ago he began to make ar-rangements to wed Miss May, whether she was willing or not. At lirst he tried to get the girl to sign a disguised mar-riage contract Under the plea that it was a subscription to the Inative Sons' celebration fund, but the girl was too sharp and refused to sigu. Then he made a bargain with the captain of a tug to be in readiness to take him and his bride out through the Golden Gate, and marry thein on the high sea. The captain primed himself on the mar-riage, but he waited vainly for the young Lochinvar and his bride. Mean-while the lover hired two men to help him out in his scheme. His assistants worked well until they learned he pro-posed to abduct the girl, when they be-came alarmed over the consequences, and one revealed tho plot to the elder Hamilton. Ho promptly placed his daughter under surveillance. Young Martens has disappeared, as he fears the father's wrath. The girl will inherit $200,000, aud the general opinion is that there is method in young Martens' madness. To Witness the Orand Parade. Chicago, Aug. 7. Special.
