Sdiooncr louisa Reed of Somersport Would Have Been lost. Drew All Asleep While the Vessel was Anchored in a DanE;erous Place. CHATHAM, Nov 25—That jiovor ceasing vigilance on the part of the wideawake patrolmen of the Chatham life-saving crew, which has saved so many human lives from watery graves, was again the means of Biiatching from almost certain death amid the icy billows last night the lives of four tired and exhausted sailors who were sound asleep dreaming of the happy homes toward which they were bound, and wholly ilnconscious of the im- minent dangers with which they wore sur- rounded, and of the maddening billows which were so eager to engulf them. There was a strong northwest gale last night along the coast and the thermometer was dropping at a lively rate. A lot of big four-masted schooners and a fleet of smaller craft were shortening sail and try- ing to get close in under the lee of Chat- ham for an anchorage where they oould ride out the gale. Soon after midnight patrolman Zonas W. Hawes, who was on the south patrol.noticod that a small schooner had run away in over the bar and anchored, those on board evi- dently desiring to get an anchorage where as little as possible of the freezing spray would fly over the docks.' It was then nearly high water, so whore she came over the bar was treacherously smooth and inviting, but the experioncod patrolman recognized the fact that it was n almost the identical spot where the big steamer Cottage City was stranded and so narrowly escaped destruction last year. He knew tliat when the tide receded the bars would come to the surface and where now all was so smooth would he trans- formed to rushing, foaming breakers, the destructive powers of which, when driven by the force of the cross currents at that place, would be simply indescribable. Koalizing the dangers which would soon surround the little craft he sent up a rocket to'waiii those oii board of tlioir dan- gerous position, but got no response. Being unable' to account for that except by con- clui ng that the crew had all gone below, be decided at once to hasten to the station and Inform the keener. Capt Doane did not wait an instant,but realizing that prompt action would be necessary If the vo-'-soI were to be gotten out of her position before the tide fell too tar, ho ordered all hands into the surf boat, and between 3 and 4 o'clock they were alongside. Their "Hello, aboard the schooner, ahoy," failed to find any response, so they quickly clambered aboard, aiid by going to tlie after gangway they soon had all hands on deck.

Now the tide had lowered so that nearly all the hidden shoals were showing tliem- .selves and the breakers were rearing their foam crests higher and higher so that the navigation was getting very intricate, but tho experienced men piloted her safely and surely through the rips, and it was not long before she was outside iu deep water >vhore she anchored safely.

HATHAWAY GEjre SEVEN YEARS. Fall River Broker Is Sentenced in Taun- ton This Morning for Obtaining Money on False Pretences. TAUNTON, Nov 2C—Welcome H. Hatha- way of Fall River, the cotton broker who was indicted by the Bristol county grand jury for obtaining money on false pre- tences, was brought before Judge Aldrich this morning for .sentence. Andrew J. Jennings, his counsel, recited the circumstances of the case, claiming that Hathaway had not used a cent o£ the money received on the false bills of lading which it was acknowledged he had worked off on tho banks, but had used every penny to make attempts to square up and to pro- vent further losses. It was simply the attempt of a man who had got into financial difHoultios for the time and who had made desperate efforts to bridge himself over in the hopes that the market would change and that there would be suifioient of a break to enable him to clear himself. But the mai'ket went down and Hathaway went down with it. . Mr Jennings claimed there was no fraud- ulent intent, but, nevertheless, Mr Hatha- way did not (seek to avoid tho conse- quences, and, in fact, it was from Mr Hatli- away's own lips that tho first intimation came that there was anything wrong. Mr Jennings read a statement from Hatha- way's physician relative to his health, and asked that this be taken into considera- tion in passing sentence. Dist Atty Knowlton said that before moving for sentence ho would say that in conversation with the wronged banking men of Fall Bivor ho had gathered that' there was no cry for vengeance, but a desire simply for justice. The court said that in passing sentence he alone was called upon to assume the responsibility. Tho people or the com- munity which had been wronged might say there was no desire for vengeance, but with this there came no assumption of responsibility whatever. ' "Only last week." he said, "a man was sentenced in this court to five' years in state prison for obtainjiig a small amount of money on false pretences; here was a case where a man had been indicted and had pleaded guilty to obtaining a very much larger amount." There was nothing in tho law about the amount. It was tho offence Itself which was to be consid9red. Then the court in^ dulged iu r.emimsoences, and cited case after case of men in high positions who had fallen, in tho very manner In which Hatha- way had fallen, not because they intended to defraud, but.betiause they had been led into it by a false beacon of hope of re- trieving fallen fortunes until they got into shoal water and were wrecked. He said that the history of the men of this state who had thus fallen from high positions in the social, political, religious and busiuoss lite of the communities in which they lived would form one of the most interesting chaptera of the history of the commonwealth of Massachusetts. Ho then said he would give a sentence which seemed to him to fit the case, and It the governor and council saw fit later on to abridge that sentence all right. The sen- tence was seven years in state prison. Hathaway received it calmly, and it is understood that it cime in the nature of a pleasant surprise for him, since he oxpooted a heavier one.

NKW YOKK, NOV U,'i--Tlie lonir fight be- tween the heirs of the estate of Jay (3ould and the department of taxes and assess- ments over the assessments of tho estate for $10,000,000 for personal property has had a new feature added to it within a few days. Edwin Gould has leased tho Barron court property in Tarrytown with the avowed intention of making that his home, for taxable imrposes at least. By this move Mr Gould, as one of tho ex- ecutors of his father's estate, will save a tax of .?]82,000, which the personal prop- erty of that estate now bears iu this county. He will also save an animal tax of $100,000, S1820 of which he payson his own account. Tho trouble between the Goulds and the tax department dates back to just after Jav Gould's death. Deo 2, 1302, when the probate of Gould's will showed his property, real and personal, to amount to ?72.000,0()0. The tax commissioners then levied the personal tax on the estate at 810,000,000, in place of S600.000, the amount Jay Gould said he owned. There were strenuous protests against the increaHC by the executors of the estate, and the tax commissioners offered George ,J. and Kdwin Gould private hearings to allow lliem to prove the injustice of the tax. What transpired at that meeting has never been told, but tho por.sonal tax assessment of the estate remained at 810,000,000. Commissioner lilumcntlial of tho depart- ment of taxes and assessments said yester- dav: "1 have heard frequently that tho Gould estate would move out of.this county if we insisted on the Slo.ooo.iioo levy for •• . • ! iiei>unal properly, antl i doubt not that it !fr<.s-m;in, ..'sr.r.'ross, was passed . uuiini- 1 ),„,., „ o „ . actuiilly done to.

Boston policeman, to murder the wife of Edward Mollen, son of Adrian Leslie Mellen, pro- prietor of the 81 James hotel, Baltiinote, Edward MoUeu had without the knowl- edge or consent of his parents married a servant girl in his father's employ and all efforts to induce him to break away from his wife proved futile. Then it was that the fatlier entered into a conspiracy with Mrs Cpolidge to have some one murder the youn? woman. MiS Ooolidge was neatly trapped by tho Boston offioial8,aidod by the notorious "Bose" Cobb and James Donahue, alias "John gull." She broke down at police headquarters and made a full confession. In April, 18S6, she was sentenced to three years in Sher- horn prison. Mellen esioaped to Mexico and afterwards made his way around to Canado, Ex Chief Hansoom, In all his long experi- ence with criminals, can recall no more startling case. The orders for the foul deed came from Baltimore. The plana and traps wore laid in Boston. Ex Chief In- spector Hanscom and other inspectors, be- sides the notorious "Bose" Cobb and James Donahue, alias "John Bull," figure as im- portant agents in preventing the murder ot the unsuspecting victim and bringing to justice one, at least, of the conspitfttors. The main features of tho case will be in- teresting at this time. About Oct 9, 188E, a woman called on E, B: Cobb, better known to the I'olleo ii>»il Sijortliia; Fraternity as "Bose" Cobb, who then was the proprie- tor of one of the lowest resorts iii this city. The rendezvous of these people was 011 Norman st. This woman, who was Mrii Coolidge, tho wife of a Boston policeman, stated to Cobb that she wished to see him privately. He took her to a place where they could hold a conversation, and, after satisfying herself that there were no eavesdroppers in the immediate vicinity, Mrs Coolidge informed Cobb that she wished to get some one to play "crank" and knock out a woman, and that she was willing to pay $1000 or SICOO for having it done. Tho substance of her story was that a young Irish girl, who had been employed as a domestic in the family ot Adrian L. Mellen of Baltimore, had succeeded iu en- snaring the affections of Edward Mellen, son ot Adrian L. Mellen, who wad then proprietor of the St James hotel, and tliat he had married her, much to the dissatis- faction ot his father and mother, Mrs Coolidge stated further that young Mellon really loved Ills wife, and, despite the attempts of his parents to consent to a separation, peremptorily refused to listen to the proposition for a moment. Bho also said that her mission to Boston was to see the person with whom she was talking, and employ liim to either kill this woman himself or to get some one to do it for him, Cobb, suspecting that ho was to be made the victim of a "put-up job," ostensibly agreed to do what she wished, informing her that he knew a keen, level-headed fol- low who would undoubtedly do tho job. She thought he would he just the man, and agreed to meet him at Cobb's saloon the following day, at 6.30. Promptly at the time agreed upon she put iu an appearance, was introduced to James Donahue, alias John Bull, who was the man neltorrcd t o b y Cobb, and to him made the same proposition. He agreed to do the job. After her departure Donahue and Cobb had a conference, and decided to make the case known at police headquarters. In pursaanoe of that decision they called upon .Cliiof Inspector Hansoom, who informed the superintendent of police, the commis- siouers and tho district attorney. They all advised the greatest secrecy, and subse qucntly several interviews were had be- tween Cobb, Donahue and the Mellen woman, at which sever.al of tho police in specters v.'ere present, but unseen. At one of these interviews Mr.s Coolidge produced two letters from Mellen, hut be fore she showed them took the precaution to cut off the signatures from each. In one of these letters Mellen agreed to bo in Bos- ton the following Thursday or Friday. He did not, however, arrive until Saturday moriiiiig. Mr:< Coolidge then had an interview with Donahue, who gave his final consent to do the job. She gave him S50, and told him to go to the clerk ot tlie Revere house and ask for a package, for which he was to receipt in his own name; that iu this pack age he would iind 10 .?100 bills. Ho did as directed, but was followed to the Kevere house by two police inspeotors, and was there seen to open tho package count the money and then seal 11 up again, On the following Monday night Donahue went to Baltimore, accompanied by two police inspeotors, where he saw the man who wanted the crime committed, and the woman whom ho desired to have put out of the way. On the following Friday Donahue re-, turned to Boston and had an interview with Mrs Coolidge, •arranging to return to Baltimore again for the purpose of Oonsuinmntliia tJjo Crime. He also had an interview with her Satur- day afternoon, Oct '2i. After talking with Donahue for a few moments she started for'the Western Union telegrapli office to send the following dispatch to Baltimore: Oct 24, 1886. Adrian I;. Molloii, St .Tamos Hotel, Biiltlmore, Md.—Ztoonta roiited oppoRltotolionso.. Work fco b e rtono Monday, sure. Send party away, without fall, as boforo. Send me word when to have money pnld. Wo want those papers they have. J. E. O. This, mossttgo was received by Inspector Houghton, who played receiver. While Mrs Coolidge was sending the dispatch. Chief Inspector Hanscom stood by her side and also wrote a dispatch, which he handed to Houghton. That gentleman pretended that he could not read a part of it, and made apretense ot handing it back to him, hut instead ot doing so handed him the woman's dispatch. The result of this little scene was tho arrest of Mrs Coolidge and a ride to police haiidquarters. At that place she completely broke down and told the whole story. She siiid that she had twice porsonallv tried to poison the young wife, and had very nearly .succeeded in killing her both times. A. L. Mollen was originally from Cam- bridge, but in 1863 went to Baltimore, and for elglit years worked as clerk in Earnuin's hotel. He left there in 1872, and for several yeart changed about considerably until some time prior to 188C, when he took ohargo of the St James. The $1000 that figured so conspicuously in the case, and which w.as given to "John Bull" by the clerk of the Revere house, is still in the possession of the court. .To whom shall it go'? •euio! iilumiiiuin l:n;. is- a :iij:h-lnior, t.r liv.-.| neii:"sl. i\' u\:i.t'- ue'l.(-\", •••I .'ipuiiii in 11 -lu. ..1.

Wood of North Attlehbro waSii)laced on trial today charged with assault on his wife, Mary H,* Wood, with intent to murder. Tho first wituoss was the wife, who de- tailed in a free and easy manner the awakening on the morning of Sopt 21, and how she felt when two strange hands fumbled about her face, and loft behind some "nasty stuff" which burned her mouth and nose and made her eyes smart. The time between her cries for aid and when her hushaud showed up from the room he was occupying across tho hall was given as some minutfc, th^ assertion of the husband that she hadheeu dreaming; the semrch about the house for the mysterious assaiiauc: the finding of the bottle oontaiu- iug the white lifluid, and the flight of the wife to her husband's parents'home.across the way wore all detailed by the wife. Tlie story of the disagreement of the husband and wife was told by.Mrs Wood in substance, that there had been estrange- ment for a year because of a woman iu Pawtucket. Mr Miller, father of Mrs Wood, testified that when ho had talked with his son-in- law about the manner in which he was using his wife, Wood had said: , "1 think more of my wife's little finger than I do the ollior woman."

Employers and Employes at Danbury Cannot Effect a Compromise. DANBUiiv, Nov 2(5—The cilorts which the Hatters' unions have made to effect a com- promise with tho mr.nutacturers have been without avail, and the situation is with- out change, except that both sides appoor to be determined to make a fight. Every factory included in the Manufacturers' as- sociation will discharge its emoloyes tonight, and 4000 hatters beside several hundred hat box makers, machinists and others, will he thrown out of employment.

Withdrawal of Oharleatown Club from Interolub Leasue, Tho decision of the board of directors of the Chariestown olub to withdraw from the interolub league in bowling, billiards, pool and whist is the topic of much dis- cussion today by tho members ot the ()98th Artillery association. A prominent member of the latter organ- ization gives it as his opinion that the Chariestown club were anxious to drop out anyway, and took the excuse that protests were made against their best man as the best way out of it. Said he: "Several of t h e direotor.<i of the Charle.stown club wore opposed to entering the Interolub league in the first place on account of tho expense. Now they have pulled out on a trivial excuse, "Ot course," said he, iu speaking of the bowling contest between tho two clubs last Wednesday night, "two wrongs do not make a right, but we have a kick to make ourselves. There is Mr Carter. Although a member ot the Chariestown olub, he is considered a professional billiardist, as ho is employed in a billiard room in the city proper. "In last Wednesday night's bovrling con- test I will admit that one man, Mr Chapin, of our No. X team, was placed on team No. 2, to take the place of Mr Spencer, who was not well at the time, This did not make much ot a difference, as Mr Spencer is considered by us as being very nearly as good as Mr Chapin when it conies to drop- ping the pins. "To offset that complaint we can say that Wardwell of the Chariestown club's team No. 2 is as good a bowler as Mr Chapin, as Mr Wardwell is a substitute member of the Casinos. "I rather think the real reason for their withdrawal is on account of the expense necessary to support the teams. So far as that goes I do not blame thera, nor would I be opposed to tho withdrav-'al ot our own teams from the interclub league, for It is a great expense. We can stand it, however, lor our alleys are busy nearly all day from 9 in the morning up to 12 at night." MINCE PIES NEED PU^E BRANDY. Mcue by F. Hsra* JE CS., Boium, uit Kid kj all "live" crocbcft.

MANCHBSTKB, Nor 25—Controller Kckels has sent a very pointed letter to Senator Chandler, replying to criticisms of his action in ordering discontinued the insol- vency proceedings against Dr ,J. C. Moore of the defunct Commonwealth bank, iu which he. says: You will permit me to suggest that I do not understand by what authority you claim ^the right to have my action re- creditor or depositor of the bank suggested the insolvency proceedings, nor has any creditor of the bank, nor any depositor, or the representative of either, complained at the order of dismissal. "The only suggestion as to insolvency, proceedings received at this olMco ema- nated from the editor of the paperof which you are the proprietor, and the only com- plaint at the order of dismissal of the in- solvency proceedings is the complaint which you make. "In the couise of your correspondence I do not find any specific charge made against either the attorney or the re- ceiver, ana your sugg,estion that the attor- ney be dismissed, as being in conspiracy With Dr Moore, and that, too, with the knowledge of tho receiver, is not substantiated by any facts which you have thus far submitted, and, therefore, I must take tho same position with you that I took with the gentlemen who were urg- ing m» to withhold the commission from the receiver of the bank at Exeter because of charges which thoy made, but did nn substantiate. "It seems to me that any charges involv- ing a man's reputation and character ought to be substantiated by something more than mere hearsay, and I do not propose, in any instance, to permit more suggestions, without being completely substautlated by facts, to lead me to do that which would reflieot unjustly upon any man. "So far as the prosecution ot Pi-es Morse for any criminal violations of law is con- cerned, I feel that I have done ray full duty in the premises, having called the at- tion of the U S district attorney, tho de- partment oC justice and the receiver to the necessity which I feel In having tho presi- dent, or any one else guilty of criminal acts, punished for them, and hav- ing requested and obtained leave from the department ot justice to send Bank Examiner Gatchell to again make a complete examination of the records of the bank, for the purpose of reporting any- thing which would substantiate the indict- ment against the president of tho bank or any other otnoer connected with it. You will pardon me it I suggest that, in the light of many of tho statements cou- tainea in your letters, taken in connection with your action in publishing in your own Der the correspondence between this offlce and yourself, it seems to me that you are more bent upon carrying out some per- sonal end and securing the punishment of some personal enemies than In serving either the creditors of the bank or the pub- lic good. "lam willing to go to the very farthest e.ttent consistent v.'jth my duty as a public official to bring to justice all who have com- mitted crimes, but it does not seem to me to be my duty to permit the office of con- troller to be used for the purpose of satisfy- ing personal enmities which mar bo enter- tained by those who are neither creditors, depositors, nor the representatives of such of the trust in question."

Sanford ahso said to his father-in-law that "he had married tho Caswell woman, and there was no liolp for anytliiug but a divorce."

CHATHAl'SBEACHHEEOES Four Lives Saved by Their

Untiring Watchfulness.

Sdiooncr louisa Reed of Somersport Would Have Been los t .

Drew All Asleep While the Vessel was Anchored in a DanE;erous Place.

CHATHAM, Nov 25—That jiovor ceasing vigilance on the part of the wideawake patrolmen of the Chatham life-saving crew, which has saved so many human lives from watery graves, was again the means of B i i a t c h i n g from almost certain death amid the icy billows last night the lives of four tired and exhausted sailors who were sound asleep dreaming of the happy homes toward which they were bound, and wholly ilnconscious of the im­minent dangers with which they wore sur­rounded, and of the maddening billows which were so eager to engulf them.

There was a strong northwest gale last night along the coast and the thermometer was dropping at a l ively rate. A lot of big four-masted schooners and a fleet of smaller craft were shortening sail and try­ing to get close in under the lee of Chat­ham for an anchorage where they oould ride out the gale.

Soon after midnight patrolman Zonas W. Hawes, who was on the south patrol.noticod that a small schooner had run away in over the bar and anchored, those on board evi­dently desiring to get an anchorage where as little as possible of the freezing spray would fly over the docks.'

It was then nearly high water, so whore she came over the bar was treacherously smooth and inviting, but the experioncod patrolman recognized the fact that it was n almost the identical spot where the big steamer Cottage City was stranded and so narrowly escaped destruction last year.

He knew tliat when the tide receded the bars would come to the surface and where now all was so smooth would he trans­formed to rushing, foaming breakers, the destructive powers of which, when driven by the force of the cross currents at that place, would be simply indescribable.

Koalizing the dangers which would soon surround the little craft he sent up a rocket to'waiii those oii board of tlioir dan­gerous position, but got no response. Being unable' to account for that except by con-clui ng that the crew had all gone below, be decided at once to hasten to the station and Inform the keener.

Capt Doane did not wait an instant,but realizing that prompt action would be necessary If the vo-'-soI were to be gotten out of her position before the tide fell too tar, ho ordered all hands into the surf boat, and between 3 and 4 o'clock they were alongside.

Their "Hello, aboard the schooner, ahoy," failed to find any response, so they quickly clambered aboard, aiid by going to tlie after gangway they soon had all hands on deck. '

By this t ime the bre.ikors were making up under the stem in a way that made the

mighty quick, too," said Capt Doane, and he with his crew bors a hand in hustling things and had the anchor at the cathead in a twinkling, the jib and foresail hoisted and the schooner payod oft to the south­ward.

Now the tide had lowered so that nearly all the hidden shoals were showing tliem-.selves and the breakers were rearing their foam crests higher and higher so that the navigation was gett ing very intricate, but tho experienced men piloted her safely and surely through the rips, and it was not long before she was outside iu deep water >vhore she anchored safely.

HATHAWAY GEjre SEVEN YEARS. Fall River Broker Is Sentenced in Taun­

ton This Morning for Obtaining Money on False Pretences.

TAUNTON, Nov 2C—Welcome H. Hatha­way of Fall River, the cotton broker who was indicted by the Bristol county grand jury for obtaining money on false pre­tences, was brought before Judge Aldrich this morning for .sentence.

Andrew J. Jennings, his counsel, recited the circumstances of the case, claiming that Hathaway had not used a cent o£ the money received on the false bills of lading which it was acknowledged he had worked off on tho banks, but had used every penny to make attempts to square up and to pro-vent further losses.

It was simply the attempt of a man who had got into financial difHoultios for the time and who had made desperate efforts to bridge himself over in the hopes that the market would change and that there would be suifioient of a break to enable him to clear himself. But the mai'ket went down and Hathaway went down with it. .

Mr Jennings claimed there was no fraud­ulent intent, but, nevertheless, Mr Hatha­way did not (seek to avoid tho conse­quences, and, in fact, it was from Mr Hatli-away's own lips that tho first intimation came that there was anything wrong. Mr Jennings read a statement from Hatha-way's physician relative to his health, and asked that this be taken into considera­tion in passing sentence.

Dist Atty Knowlton said that before moving for sentence ho would say that in conversation with the wronged banking men of Fall Bivor ho had gathered that' there was no cry for vengeance, but a desire simply for justice.

The court said that in passing sentence he alone was called upon to assume the responsibility. Tho people or the com­munity which had been wronged might say there was no desire for vengeance, but with this there came no assumption of responsibility whatever. '

"Only last week." he said, "a man was sentenced in this court to five' years in state prison for obtainjiig a small amount of money on false pretences; here was a case where a man had been indicted and had pleaded guilty to obtaining a very much larger amount."

There was nothing in tho law about the amount. It was tho offence Itself which was to be consid9red. Then the court in^ dulged iu r.emimsoences, and cited case after case of men in high positions who had fallen, in tho very manner In which Hatha­way had fallen, not because they intended to defraud, but.betiause they had been led into it by a false beacon of hope of re­trieving fallen fortunes until they got into shoal water and were wrecked.

He said that the history of the men of this state who had thus fallen from high positions in the social, political, religious and busiuoss lite of the communities in which they lived would form one of the most interesting chaptera of the history of the commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Ho then said he would give a sentence which seemed to him to fit the case, and It the governor and council saw fit later on to abridge that sentence all right. The sen­tence was seven years in state prison.

Hathaway received it calmly, and it is understood that it c ime in the nature of a pleasant surprise for him, since he oxpooted a heavier one.

GOULD OHANGBB B E S I D E N O B .

Wil l Move to Tarrytown to Escape Pres­ent Tax in H e w York.

NKW YOKK, NOV U,'i--Tlie lonir fight be­tween the heirs of the estate of Jay (3ould and the department of taxes and assess­ments over the assessments of tho estate for $10,000,000 for personal property has had a new feature added to it within a few days.

Edwin Gould has leased tho Barron court property in Tarrytown with the avowed intention of making that his home, for taxable imrposes at least.

By this move Mr Gould, as one of tho ex­ecutors of his father's estate, will save a tax of .?]82,000, which the personal prop­erty of that estate now bears iu this county. He will also save an animal tax of $100,000, S1820 of which he payson his own account.

Tho trouble between the Goulds and the tax d e p a r t m e n t dates back to just after J a v Gould's death. Deo 2, 1302, when the probate of Gould's will showed his property , real and personal, to amount to ?72.000,0()0.

The tax commissioners then levied the personal tax on the estate at 810,000,000, in place of S600.000, the amount Jay Gould said he owned.

There were strenuous protests against the increaHC by the executors of the estate, and t h e t a x c o m m i s s i o n e r s offered George ,J. and Kdwin Gould private hearings to allow l l i e m to prove the injustice of the tax. What transpired at that meeting has never been to ld , but tho por.sonal tax assessment of the estate remained at 810,000,000.

Commissioner l i l u m c n t l i a l of tho depart­ment of taxes and assessments said yester-d a v :

Last Tuesday there was la id to rest in the Taylor lot in the CambridBe cemetery the body of Adrian i e s l l e MoUen. who died, a fugitive from justioe, iu Toronto, o£ pne'imouia, Mellen was Oi yeni's bid, and since 188G has l ived oiitside tlie jurisdic­tion of the United States,

At that t ime he was indicted by the grand Jury on a charge of oonspiraoy with Mrs Emiflii Coolidge, the wife of a,. Boston policeman, to murder the wife of Edward Mollen, son of Adrian Leslie Mellen, pro­prietor of the 81 James hotel, Baltiinote,

Edward MoUeu had without the knowl­edge or consent of his parents married a servant girl in his father's employ and all efforts to induce him to break away from his wife proved futile.

Then it was that the fatlier entered into a conspiracy with Mrs Cpolidge to have some one murder the youn? woman. MiS Ooolidge was neatly trapped by tho Boston o f f i o i a l 8 , a i d o d by the notorious "Bose" Cobb and James Donahue, alias "John gul l ."

She broke down at police headquarters and made a full confession. In April, 18S6, she was sentenced to three years in Sher-horn prison. Mellen esioaped to Mexico and afterwards made his w a y around to Canado,

Ex Chief Hansoom, In all h is long experi­ence with criminals, can recall no more startling case. The orders for the foul deed came from Baltimore. The plana and traps wore laid in Boston. Ex Chief In­spector Hanscom and other inspectors, be­sides the notorious "Bose" Cobb and James Donahue, alias "John Bull," figure as im­portant agents in preventing the murder ot the unsuspecting vict im and bringing to justice one, at least, of the conspitfttors.

The main features of tho case will be in­teresting at this time.

About Oct 9, 188E, a woman called on E, B: Cobb, better known to the

I'olleo i i>»i l S i j o r t l i i a ; F r a t e r n i t y as "Bose" Cobb, who then was the proprie­tor of one of the lowest resorts iii this city. The rendezvous of these people was 011 Norman st. This woman, who was Mrii Coolidge, tho wife of a Boston policeman, stated to Cobb that she wished to see h im privately.

He took her to a place where they could hold a conversation, and, after satisfying herself that there were no eavesdroppers in the immediate vicinity, Mrs Coolidge informed Cobb that she wished to get some one to play "crank" and knock out a woman, and that she was will ing to pay $1000 or SICOO for having it done.

Tho substance of her story was that a young Irish girl, who had been employed as a domestic in the family ot Adrian L. Mellen of Baltimore, had succeeded iu en­snaring the affections of Edward Mellen, son ot Adrian L. Mellen, who wad then proprietor of the St James hotel, and tliat he had married her, much to the dissatis­faction ot his father and mother,

Mrs Coolidge stated further that young Mellon really loved Ills wife, and, despite the attempts of his parents to consent to a separation, peremptorily refused to listen to the proposition for a moment. Bho also said that her mission to Boston was to see the person with whom she was talking, and employ li im to either kil l this woman himself or to get some one to do it for him,

Cobb, suspecting that ho was to be made the victim of a "put-up job," ostensibly agreed to do what she wished, informing her that he knew a keen, level-headed fol­low who would undoubtedly do tho job.

She thought he would he just the man, and agreed to meet him at Cobb's saloon the following day, at 6.30.

Promptly at the t ime agreed upon she put iu an appearance, w a s introduced to James Donahue, alias John Bull, who was the man

n e l t o r r c d t o b y C o b b , and to him made the same proposition. He agreed to do the job.

After her departure Donahue and Cobb had a conference, and decided to make the case known at police headquarters. In pursaanoe of that decision they called upon

.Cliiof Inspector Hansoom, who informed the superintendent of police, the commis-siouers and tho district attorney. They all advised the greatest secrecy, and subse qucntly several interviews were had be­tween Cobb, Donahue and the Mellen woman, at which sever.al of tho police i n specters v.'ere present, but unseen.

At one of these interviews Mr.s Coolidge produced two letters from Mellen, hut be fore she showed them took the precaution to cut off the signatures from each. In one of these letters Mellen agreed to bo in Bos­ton the following Thursday or Friday. He did not, however, arrive until Saturday moriiiiig.

Mr:< Coolidge then had an interview with Donahue, who gave his final consent to do the job. She gave h im S50, and told him to go to the clerk ot tlie Revere house and ask for a package, for which he was to receipt in his own name; that iu this pack age he would iind 10 .?100 bills.

Ho did as directed, but was followed to the Kevere house by two police inspeotors, and was there seen to open tho package count the money and then seal 11 up again, O n the following Monday night Donahue went to Baltimore, accompanied by two

police inspeotors, where he saw the man who wanted the crime committed, and the woman whom ho desired to have put out of the way.

On the following Friday Donahue re-, turned to Boston and had an interview with Mrs Coolidge, •arranging to return to Baltimore again for the purpose of

Oonsuinmntl i ia tJjo Crime. He also had an interview with her Satur­

day afternoon, Oct '2i. After talking with Donahue for a few moments she started for'the Western Union telegrapli office to send the following dispatch to Baltimore:

Oct 2 4 , 1 8 8 6 . A d r i a n I;. Mol lo i i , S t .Tamos H o t e l , B i i l t l m o r e ,

Md.—Ztoonta roi i ted o p p o R l t o t o l i o n s o . . W o r k fco be rtono M o n d a y , sure . S e n d p a r t y a w a y , w i t h o u t f a l l , a s boforo . S e n d m e w o r d w h e n t o h a v e m o n e y pnld . W o want t h o s e p a p e r s t h e y h a v e . J . E . O.

This, mossttgo was received by Inspector Houghton, who played receiver. While Mrs Coolidge was sending the dispatch. Chief Inspector Hanscom stood by her side and also wrote a dispatch, which he handed to Houghton. That gentleman pretended that he could not read a part of it, and made apretense ot handing it back to him, hut instead ot doing so handed him the woman's dispatch.

The result of this little scene was tho arrest of Mrs Coolidge and a ride to police haiidquarters. At that place she completely broke down and told the whole story. She siiid that she had twice porsonallv tried to poison the young wife, and had very nearly .succeeded in ki l l ing her both times.

A. L. Mollen was originally from Cam­bridge, but in 1863 went to Baltimore, and for elglit years worked as clerk in Earnuin's hotel. He left there in 1872, and for several yeart changed about considerably until some t ime prior to 188C, when he took ohargo of the St James.

The $1000 that figured so conspicuously in the case, and which w.as g iven to "John Bull" by the clerk of the Revere house, is still in the possession of the court.

Withdrawal of Oharleatown Club from Interolub Leasue,

Tho decision of the board of directors of the Chariestown olub to withdraw from the interolub league in bowling, billiards, pool and whist is the topic of much dis­cussion today by tho members ot the ()98th Artillery association.

A prominent member of the latter organ­ization gives it as his opinion that the Chariestown club were anxious to drop out anyway, and took the excuse that protests were made against their best man as the best way out of it.

Said he: "Several of the direotor.<i of the Charle.stown club wore opposed to entering the Interolub league in the first place on account of tho expense. Now they have pulled out on a trivial excuse,

"Ot course," said he, iu speaking of the bowling contest between tho two clubs last Wednesday night, "two wrongs do not make a right, but we have a kick to make ourselves. There is Mr Carter. Although a member ot the Chariestown olub, he is considered a professional billiardist, as ho is employed in a billiard room in the city proper.

"In last Wednesday night's bovrling con­test I will admit that one man, Mr Chapin, of our No. X team, was placed on team No. 2, to take the place of Mr Spencer, who was not well at the time, This did not make much ot a difference, as Mr Spencer is considered by us as being very nearly as good as Mr Chapin when it conies to drop­ping the pins.

"To offset that complaint we can say that Wardwell of the Chariestown club's team No. 2 is as good a bowler as Mr Chapin, as Mr Wardwell is a substitute member of the Casinos.

"I rather think the real reason for their withdrawal is on account of the expense necessary to support the teams. So far as that goes I do not blame thera, nor would I be opposed to tho withdrav-'al ot our own teams from the interclub league, for It is a great expense. We can stand it, however, lor our alleys are busy nearly all day from 9 in the morning up to 12 at night."

Controller Eckela Takes Lew Chandler Task in the Moore Case.

MANCHBSTKB, N o r 25—Controller Kckels has sent a very pointed letter to Senator Chandler, replying to criticisms of his action in ordering discontinued the insol­vency proceedings against Dr ,J. C. Moore of the defunct Commonwealth bank, iu which he. says:

You will permit me to suggest that I do not understand by what authority you claim ^the right to have my action re-

creditor or depositor of the bank suggested the insolvency proceedings, nor has any creditor of the bank, nor any depositor, or the representative of either, complained at the order of dismissal.

"The only suggestion as to insolvency, proceedings received at this olMco ema­nated from the editor of the paperof which you are the proprietor, and the only com­plaint at the order of dismissal of the in­solvency proceedings is the complaint which you make.

"In the couise of your correspondence I do not find any specific charge made against either the attorney or the re­ceiver, ana your sugg,estion that the attor­ney be dismissed, as being in conspiracy With Dr Moore, and that, too, with the knowledge of tho receiver, is not substantiated by any facts which you have thus far submitted, and, therefore, I must take tho same position with you that I took with the gentlemen who were urg­ing m» to withhold the commission from the receiver of the bank at Exeter because of charges which thoy made, but did n n substantiate.

"It seems to me that any charges involv­ing a man's reputation and character ought to be substantiated by something more than mere hearsay, and I do not propose, in any instance, to permit more suggestions, without being completely substautlated by facts, to lead me to do that which would reflieot unjustly upon any man.

"So far as the prosecution ot Pi-es Morse for any criminal violations of law is con­cerned, I feel that I have done ray full duty in the premises, having called the at-tion of the U S district attorney, tho de­partment oC justice and the receiver to the necessity which I feel In having tho presi­dent, or any one else guilty of criminal acts, punished for them, and hav­ing requested and obtained leave from the department ot justice to send Bank Examiner Gatchell to again make a complete examination of the records of the bank, for the purpose of reporting any­thing which would substantiate the indict­ment against the president of tho bank or any other otnoer connected with it.

You will pardon me it I suggest that, in the l ight of many of tho statements cou-tainea in your letters, taken in connection with your action in publishing in your own

Der the correspondence between this offlce and yourself, i t seems to me that you are more bent upon carrying out some per­sonal end and securing the punishment of some personal enemies than In serving either the creditors of the bank or the pub­lic good.

" l a m will ing to go to the very farthest e.ttent consistent v.'jth my duty as a public official to bring to justice all who have com­mitted crimes, but it does not seem to me to be my duty to permit the office of con­troller to be used for the purpose of satisfy­ing personal enmities which mar bo enter­tained by those who are neither creditors, depositors, nor the representatives of such of the trust in question."
