HIDES FROM FORMER WIVES

Prosecutor Surprised on Hearing of Release of Attorney Caldwell. Columbus. Ind., June 25.—The release of Attorney Charles W. Caldwell from jail has stirred up a hornet’s nest among the local officials. Caldwell is the man who was shot by A. M. Remy, an Elizabethtown merchant, because he paid too much attention to the Remy girls, Belah and Helen. Prosecuting Attorney O’Donnell did not know that Caldwell had been released for several hours after he had taken his effects from the jail. Sheriff Cox said the attorneys had “agreed to let him” out, but this did not satisfy the prosecutor. Cox said that Caldwell had signed a bond for S3OO, agreeing to return here for the September term of court He deeded away all of his property a few days ago and the prosecutor declared the bond worthless. Caldwell says he is going to some point in Texas or Mexico. He declines to tell where he is going, because, he says, his former wives have been hounding him for twelve years.
