I the trustee named in the deed of trust
from C Davis to H Masterson to be sold
on the first Tuesday in April 1S91 in ac-
coruance witn tne provisions or tho deed or
trust He further admits and alleges that
the deed of trust from O Davis to A R
Masterson in favor of II Master
son was a prior valid lien to that
in favor of J Gordon Brown
and that the lein in favor of Brown if he
has any is subordinate to tho deed of trust
of the date September 10 1SS9 given by C
Davis in favor of Haines Masterson Respon-
dent on information and belief denies that
Archie R Masterson made an abstract of
the 535 acres otland out of the J H Bell
league for said J Gordon Brown or for any
one else upon which Brown made his loan
of 2000 to Cornelius and Adeline Davis and
that Brown well knew his allegation in
his bill and complaint charging that Archie
H Masterson mado said abstract was
wholly and absolutely false when ho wil-
fully and maliciously swore to it The re-
spondent specifically denies the allegation
of said J Gordon Brown to the
effect -that Haines Masterson
aided and assisted the said Cornelius Davis
and negotiated with our orator beore
meaninsr tho 2000 loan on tha
land described in the billj he
as well as the said Cornelius Davis
representing unto your orator that the
land was cloar of encumbrance except
the sum of 700 due him as aforesaid he
the said Cornelius Davis agreeing with
your orator that said loan should bo granted
the said Haines Masterson should be paid the
sum of 700 as a cancellation of said lien
and that thereupon the said Haines Mas
terson would release and relinquish tho
said lien which he and the said
Cornelius Davis represented and led
your orator to believe was the
only encumbrance on said property
and say that said allegations insofar as
they apply to this respondent are abso-
lutely and unconditionally false when sworn
to by J Gordon Brown and done so for tho
purpose of misleading the court in obtain-
ing the restraining order in said cause
That in truth and fact respondent knew
nothing whatever about the negotiations of
said loan by C Davis until it had been
closed and he was called u pon for the amount
of his vendors lien to said land and his
release thereof and this the said Brown
well knew or could have known by in-
quiry when at tho time he swore to tho con-
trary for the purpose of obtaining a re-
straining order
Jack the Rippers Victim
New York April 24 A doctor who saw
tho body of Jack the Rippers victim before
it was removed says Whether by chance
or skill the cut was made so as to effect
the object aimed at by the London Jack
the Ripper namely the removal of
the uterus the Incision wns beimn near
the termination of the backbone and car-
ried from oelow upward in an oblique di-
rection to a point half way upon the right
side of the abdomen Then apparently the
knife was carrried around the perinaeum
butcher fashion and the uterus rectum
and bladder pulled out together The blad-
der is still lying on tha bed carefully sep-
arated from its surrounding attachments
The rectum has likewise been divided off
from the adjacent structures and a super-
ficial examination did cot find the uterus al-
though it may still be lying underneath tho
corpse Ono thing is certain the uterus
must have been in the murderers hands
whether he knew it or not for the presence
of tho other structures without it proves
that it must have been withdrawn from the
body
The resemblance between this murder
and those credited to Jack the Ripper in
London is thus strong enough to warrant
the presumption that tha object
aimed at wa3 the same although
the procedure was slightly different One
arrest has been made but tho police wont
give any information concerning the man
nor would they yiva his right name The
murdered woman was sixty years old and
her name wes Carrie Brown
