An Alleged lllitkiealler llecUrra lltuisstf le He tlm Accuser's Hen, Unable le lawr the strain any louger "Doe" Wilsen In l'revldenre, It, I., en Wednesday morning broke down In health and weeping llkea child, told the great secret which had existed between himself Bnd r. i Misin, or Worcester, ler se many jears. The story was told In the presence et four reputable ltizens, who Imve furnished It tolhepross: "lam loekotl upon as a hbvkinaller," he said, "nnd theso who hellote I hate been ' bleeding' that old man held me In as much contempt as a yellow deg. Hull will stand It no longer. I am mere sinned against than sinning, and new the truth sliall be known. My natne Is net Wilsen, nor sin I the son or Jonas Wilsen. My father is the man who Is accusing mu or blackmail, and my natiia Is Levi Moen, the lawful son el V. L. Moen, et Worcestor." Wilsen then went en Ui loll the stnry or his birth and the wrong dene him by his rather. His story Is that hels it son or Moen's 11 rst wlfe, and that he ws born a few months after thn inarrlnge. Moen, being a deacon and a professedly hlgh-toned Christian, did net wish te laoe scandal at sucL an early birth for hi. llrst-bern, se a bargain was made with ene Jonas Wilsen, el DanlolHeuvlllo, Conn., a stsgo-drlver, by which the habe was transferred le the latuir's care and was brought up as a Wilsen. The boy llted Bnd toiled In tbe humble sphore te which he says Moen consigned him, and it was net until he was a young mau grown that he learned the screter his birth. Fer that secret he was Indebted te the religious rpmorse of his sup posed father, Jonas Wilsen, who, being en ids death-bed and net caring te pass the por per bils wllh the bunion en his soul, drew the lad toward him nnd told him who he was. Arter Wilsen dled the young lellew set oil for Worcester te meet his lather face te face. 1 heir first meeting, Wilsen says, was exactly as had been dcscritied. He did meet Moen en that particular morning, and, arter observing tbe signs of wealth and luxury that abounded, hedemnuded of Meuii seme roparntieu for the wrong dene le the ene who should be the heir te all. Meen at tirst ro re luscd te acknowledge the lad, and would hate driven him forth, but the boy faces 1 his tnllllonatre parent defiantly, and, upbraid ing him for tlie wrong dene Ills mother and himself, he said : " 1 will force you te ack ack ack nowledge me, and the world shall knew you ler what you are." Then "Der-" says the hanker deacon beeame alarmed andgave him f 100. Hy apiielntmcnt he met Mim the next day nnd conseiuted te shield his unnatural father from shatne. The fattier had In the meantime married egtln, after the death of "Doe's" mother, aud had married In a family which would have scerned Moen had they known of the scandal. Then, according te Wilsen's story, the Wil sons, who knew the secret of his parentage, seeing that "Dec" had money and knowing It came from Meen, began le urge claims upon him. Their demands lnortaed, and te satisfy them he had te apply te Moeu for money, and In that way imira of the sums received from the banker was spent. Wil Wil eon says that theso demnnds upon bun grew se exorbitant thai he w as almost unpet erished by them. The Kngley suits were settled, he said, at Meeu's suggestion and with Meeu's meney, because the latter feared his relation ship te Wilsen would come cut some way in the trial. Wilsen has Iettera which, he stys, were written by Meen, acknowledging the rela tionship, aud calling him " Hear Seu." 'I hese letters Mr. Wliseti prudueed today. He says he la the injured one, as, instead of being reared as a gentleman and brought up amid all the luxuries which Ins father's wealth could purchase, he was cast adrift nnd reared ns a peasant boy, without education aud without any of the ieiiueuients of llfe which would hate Imhiu his had tils cruel parents dene right. Mr. Wilsen said be can 110 longer endure the calumnies with which he Is iihsatled, and that his mnfonlen of the secret Is true lu every respec'. The announcement from I'rmiJouee that "Dec" Wilsen had lifted the tail lrem thu great Meen mystery caused a tremendous sensation In Worcester, Mass. Tne bulletin beards were sutreunded far into the night by crowds who dninkln the brief (-ketch In opon epon open mouthetl wonder. The millionaire manufac turer was at prayer minting when the an nouncement reached Wert enter, and tlm re porters gathered at the dour of tlie l men church te waylay him wbsn he came forth. One of them sbowed Mr. Meuu a copy el a Providence pa per containing the story and pro ceeded te interview him en Ihnnubjevt buthe would say nothing aside from tliu statement that "Dec's" story was .1 lie. un dlllli ulty he escaped the roperlora und proceeded te his residence!.

He was as cool and collected us though he had been called te the deer 011 a mailer et business of the simplest kiud. When asked about the statement made by Wilsen that he was ids father, Mr. Moeu sn d it is a lie : a downright lie." He tun said "My counsel has advised me net te bilk with any of tlm nowsp.iper men en tlie sut nvt, he you will excuse me If I decline te be intert lowed further ; but you can see that he is uearmg the eud of his rope. Just free hew- desporate tlie man Is, getting up such a story as that." Mr. Meen declined te stste anything further. An Indignant Denial. New Yeiik, Dec 2 V. L.
