Ward and Fish Convicted and Public Opinion Shifts
In New York October 31 Ward and Fish are convicted in a grand larceny case. The piece contrasts their former social welcome with today’s public scorn, noting how wealth and influence no longer shield them. It questions prosecutorial zeal and the mob’s punitive mood toward the once venerable financiers.
Desperado Renfroe Is Visited In Hidden Woods
The Journal of Livingston Alabama reports an interview with Steve Renfroe, an escaped convict and former Pratt Mines sheriff, conducted in a desolate woodland. He describes his escape route from Birmingham with three others, hiding four days without food, and his subsequent move toward Livingston. A sentinel guides Renfroe to a log where he sits armed, while a watcher signals with acorn whistles. He voices bias against several officers and warns to avoid them. The area remains tense as residents compare the danger to the James boys while only one man can sight him at a time.

Bonanza wealth and the Mackays in a roaming romance
The piece questions the romanticization of John Mackay and his wealth while recounting the bonanza era. It notes Mackay’s peak fortune around 20 million, his poor record as an investor, and Mrs. Mackay’s lavish image contrasted with evasive pranks about Arc de Triomphe bids. A sprawling, satirical portrait ends with royal marriages and barber origins framing the Mackay saga.
