The deserted husband of Caroline I
"Wells, the woman who made dupes of seTen
or more wealthy men, was as much surprised
to read the story of her checkered life for
the past seven years as anyone. He tells
his story now. Another case of marital in
fidelity is reported from Trenton, N. J.,
where a hotel keeper's wife, formerly of
Pittsburg, has eloped with a prominent club
man.
'rsrcctAii nuaiux to tot disfa.tce.1
Kew Yobk, October22. The publication
or the story of the career of Caroline F.
"Wells, who secured a fortune from Contrac
tor George F. "Woolston, was a startling sur
prise to those in ifew Tort who
know the woman. No one person has
known the full story of the recent
life of the adventuress. Each of her vic
tims has imagined himself to be her only
dupe, and most of them have been content
to pocket their losses at her hands with no
more than a vigorous denunciation of their
own folly.
Three or four men with families and of
' good reputation would rather suffer their
loss twice over than make public the facts,
and the discovery of a trunk full of com
promising letters alter the woman's flight
from Sheepshead Bay is giving these indi
viduals GEEAT TTKEASINESS.
There are one or two, however, who are
anxious to recover certain real estate, cash
and jewels which, seder various circum
stances, they bestowed upon Mrs. "Wells,
and theX-are willing-. If necessarr, i
encounter publicity in order to ac
complish their object. But until the
present whereabouts of the woman are dis
covered they wiU say nothing. If she
should return to New Xork the matter
wou d at ones take legal shape in the courts.
The first knowledge which Emmet "Wells
had received of his -wife's movements for
more than seven years came from the publi
cation to-day. Mr. "Wells is a hop commis
sion merchant, about 50 years old, and he
has an office at 19 "Whitehall street He
said to-day to a Dispatch reporter:
THE HUSBAND'S 8TOBT.
"I hsd not heard a word from or about my
wife since she started off, more than seven
years ago, to make her fortune, until you
called on me a week ago at my hotel. I
didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
She has seemed dead to me, for, after the
manner in which she disgraced me and
my family, I made up my mind I would
never live with her again, so I never made
any attempt to follow her or to trace her
movements. Neither have I sought
a divorce or leeal separation. "When
I married her, in 1873 or 1874, she
was a poor girl. For several years
I supported her two sisters as well as her
self. She was extravagant, and our house
hold expenses were $3,000 or J6.000 per year,
which was more than I could afford. She
was lively, fond of company, and a great
deal in the society of gentlemen, with whom
she was a great favorite. But I
KEVEK SA-W ANYTHING
to lead me to suspect that she was not a true
wife while she lived with me. I see men
tioned among her victims the name of a man
who was a frequent visitor at our house be
fore my wife left me. "Well, if he has suf
fered at her hands, I'm glad of it
"It is not true that my wife told me when
the went away that if she succeeded she
would come back, but that if she tailed I
would never hear of her again. She made
that statement to one of her friends, who
told me of it soon after her departure, i
fully expected she would return
after a few weeks' absence.
She took with her about $11,000
- of my money. At that time big fortunes
were being made on 'Western cattle ranches.
She heard of a chance, or said she did, to
get rich in short order, and I let her go.
She was a woman of naturally good business
instincts, and I thought she would stand
A FAIB CHANCE OF SUCCESS.
At first I explained her absence to my
friends by saying she had gone to Colorado
for her health. Then, as time went on and
no word came from her, that explanation
would no longer suffice, and I felt the
disgrace keenly. Finally I told my most
intimate friends the facts, and I made up
my mind that I was done with the woman
forever. The date given of the beginning of
her relations with "Woolston shows
that be masi haTe entered
upon the career of an adventuress almost
immediately after leaving me. Mrs.
"Woolston, of whom I never heard before,
wrote me two or three days ago,
asking if I wuld co-operate with
her in prosecuting the woman in order
to force a separation between her and
"Woolston. I have not made up mv mind
whether I will do so or not I would be
glad to get my money back.butl never want
to see the woman. Mrs. "Woolston's sole
object, a she explains, is to get her
husband to return to her, and she is desper
ately in earnest I do not believe she will
ueceed; and if she does not it wiu not sur-

tragedy, with the wronged and desnerate
wife as an avenger."
SOMETHING OP WOOLSTON.
"Woolston's most intimate fneod in New
Xork is Frank Sogers, junior partner of the
firm of Morse & Bogers, boots and shoes, at
134 Dnane street "When in New York
"Woolston has made Mb business head
quarters at that address. Mr. Bogers was
out of town to-day, on a hunting trip. Mrs.
Bogers has known both Mr. and Mrs.
"Woolston for many years. She said to-day,
about the domestic troubles of the couple:
"There can be no defense whatever,
of the relations between Mr. "Woolston
ana this woman, but it has
not surprised me at all, and I think Mrs.
"Woolston is herself responsible for theioss
of her husband. She is a very peculiar
woman. My husband and I lived in the
same house with them for some time before
this woman came upon the scene, so we
could not help knowing more or less about
their domestic life. Mr. "Woolston was a
kind husband, but his wife was
OP A TECULIAB TEMPEKAMENT.
She was continually nagging and finding
fault, and I don't believe any man
could live happily with her. Mr.
"Woolston humored her in every way he
could, and it often surprised me that he
would bear so much at her hands. She
fairly made it impossible for him to live
with her peaceably."
Daniel P. Morse, of Morse & Bogers, has
known "Woolston for nearly 20 years. He,
too, considers Mrs. "Woolston responsible for
most of herown troubles. About 17years ago
"Woolston, Morse and Bogers came to New
York together from Boston. All three were
salesmen, "Woolston for a drygoods house,
Morse for a boot and shoe house and Bogers
for a clothing house. For some time they
lived in the same apartments, ana
they have ever since been fast
friends. Mr. Morse knows nothing, he
says, about "Woolston's relations with the
"Wells woman. Eegarding "Woolston's fam
ily troubles, Mr. Morse said: "During all
the time we lived together I never saw
the least thing about Mr. "Woolston to indi
cate that he was an immoral man. He was
and is
A 'WHOLE-SOULED, GOOD FELLOW,
full of ambition, and was good to his family.
That I do know. Yet, when I was in Bos
ton, come little time ago, Mrs. "Woolston
sent for me, and when I called
on her she told me she, dated
the beginning of her trouble with
her husband from the time when we had
apartments together. ' I know they have not
lived happily together for years, yet during
all this time I've never heard "Woolston say
one unkind word about his wife. I will not
say that she is insane, but there'ssometbing
wrong about the woman. He invited me,
to his house for dinner one day, and when
Mrs. "Woolston ascertained that I was the
guest she would not come into the room.
She treated all his friends is a similar man
ner." A. B. Cnshing, who has had important
business dealings with "Woolston, has a very
uncomplimentary opinion of him. He re
gards him as an unscrupulous man,' and says
he has
LOST .HEALILY AT HIS HA3XS.
Mr.Cushing recently saw an offer of terms
of separation made by "Woolston to his wife,
which he advised that lady to accept,
but she did not "In addition to
two houses on Union Park, Boston,
with a rental of about $2,500, he offered her
under. In addition, he was wlinng-to agree
to educate the boys and to allow them to
remain with their mother. If "Wools
ton was as rich as his gifts to Mrs.
"Wells, indicated, Mr. Cushing did not re
gard this as a liberal offer, but when he
made it he declared it was all he could af
ford to do. It was stated by one or two of
"Woolston's friends to-day, "that he started
for.Helena, Mont, about ten days ago.

rsPECIAL TXI.EOBXK TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Teenton, N. J., October 22. Brewer
Bue, a builder, of No. 25 Union street, left
last Saturday with pretty Mrs. "William
Cleary, wile of hotel keeper "William
Cleary, and they have not been heard
of since. The parties are well-to-do,
and Bue is a prominent club man.
The news of their elopement has caused
much excitement Not only did the builder
secure the hotel keeper's wile, but Mrs.
Cleary took with her over $6,000 in cash,
and Bue drew 54,400 from the Trenton Bank,
and also converted some of his property
into ready cash before going. For
some time past the friends of the hotel
keeper have noticed that Bue was very at
tentive to Mrs. Cleary, more particularly in
the absence of her husband. On Friday
last Mr. Bue entered the hotel, and h.e and
Mrs. Cleary held a whispered consultation.
Bue, it was noticed by everybody,
BECAME 21TJCH EXEBCISED,
and when he began talking too loud, Mrs.
Cleary ushered him into a rear room. A
lew moments later he left the house. He
went home, and telling bis wife he intended
going to a county fair, had her get out his
winter sealskin hat and heavy overcoat On
leaving the house b,e kissed his wife goodby,
and in answer to her ques
tion of "When will you be
home?" rei)lied: "I can't exactly
say. I won't be gone over ten years,
though, I guess."
Mrs. Bue thought nothing strange of this
remark until the next day. Her husband
not returning, she set out on a hunt, and
Sunday night learned that Mrn. Cleary had
also disappeared, and of her hnsband's in
timacy with the woman. For the first time
in her nine years of married life she had
cause to suspect her husband. The deserted
wife is almost distracted.
No children are left by either of the
elopers. Mrs. Bue says she has never had a
quarrel with her husband, and is utterly at
a loss to account for his action. She called
on the chief of police to aid her in regaining
her husband, and offered the chief several
hundred dollars if he would learn where the
runaways are. The chief has issned printed
descriptions of the elopers and sent them
throughout the country. Mrs. Bue has also
engaged the services of private detective
Hill.
A Dispatch representative called on
Mr. Cleary at his hotel this morning, ana
he said:
can't believe it teue.
Builder Brewer Bue and I have always been
on the most intimate terms. He has bad the
freedom of my bouse, and I would be the last
one to do him an injury, and he Is the last one
from whom I had expected an injury. I am his
friend, and always thought him mine.
So I think they have eloped? What
else can 1 think? I can't help
but believe it true now, with all the evidence I
have before me. Ithoucbt yesterday I knew
where tbey were, but I am satisfied now that I
was mistaken. Yes, Mrs. Cleary could have
taken much more money than she has. I can't
believe her so guilty. The money she has
talren was not mine, but her own Drivato mv.
tags. I am sure she has been led into this
thins.
Brewer Bue wai one of the most promis
ing young men in this town. He has been
very successful in business, is highly con
nected, and a member of several clubs. Mrs.
Bue Is the daughter of Mrs. Gettler, a well-to-do
German woman, and an old resident
of Union street Her brother is proprietor
of a large hotel on North "Warren street
Mrs. Cleary was formerly a resident of
Pittsburg.

Blaine and the President Don't Quite Agree
on a "Foreign Policy Other Matters
on Which They Are at De
cided Variance,
rsrxctu. txxxquak to tot Drar-iTcn.
"Washington, October 22. At the
Cabinet meeting, to-day, all of the members
were present, and certain features of the
President's message were discussed. The
President is probably between more fires on
more questions tnan any other President
has been since the days of reconstruction,
and he finds it difficult, if not impossible,
to reconcile the arguments that are being
thrust upon him by tremendous influence,
either with his conscience or his judgment
It is understood that Secretary Blaine is
urging utterances in regard to "a foreign
policy which are opposed to the cooler, less
dramatio disposition ot Mr Harrison, who
desires to be conciliatory and leave troubles
whiqh may chance to arise to arbitration,
rather than to make bold and
somewhat boastful declarations from
which the Government would possibly
be compelled to back down. The Canadian
and Alaskan fishery questions are therefore
being carefully discussed, and onr strained
diplomatic, relations with China and the re
sulting injury to trade comes in for slow
and serious consideration.
Another vexed question touched on to
day, is more subsidies to vessels engaging
in the South American trade, and the en
couragement, in various ways of lines of
steamships between the United States and
South American ports. A policy looking
in this direction will be urged upon Con
gress during the approaching session, with
more powerful influence than ever before.
The entire bent of the Three Americas Con
gress is in this direction, and the national
pride will be appealed to, in view of the
approaching Exposition of 1892, to draw
closer together by every posjible tie, the
p'eople of the vast, fruitful, uneqnaled coun
tries of the entire continents North and
South America, and the great uniting
xstbmus of Uentral America.
Onll sides there are new converts to this
formerly objectionable policy, but the very
name subsidy has been made so odious in
the minds of the public, otten by good argu
ments but oftener by the mere senseless
howls of demagogues, that the subject is ap
proached by the -President and his Cabinet
with extreme timidity, and it is doubtful if
even the influences engendered by the three
Americas Congress will be sufficient to in
duce the President to more than present the
matter in a neutral way for the considera
tion' of Congress, with some strong sug
gestions that the new and closer relations of
American countries call for the most serioup
disenssion of all methods that 'can be de
vised lor strengthening the ties between
them. ,
These international questions, judging
from the discussions of Cabinet meetings,
promise to play a most important part in
the forthcoming message. There will be
frequent considerations of them. Capital
ists and shippers, and men with trans
ocean interests will be conferred with, and
the utterance ot the message on these sub
jects will probably not be complete before
the ere ot the meeting of Congress.

pastor of the Polish Catholic Church at

from the priesthood for unbecoming con
duct The congregation was divided into

appeared in Plymouth for the purpose of
obtaining possession of the church and its
property. The police were called upon to
interfere in case of trouble and a call was
made at the parsonage.
Upon admission being refused, the officers

in the City of Atlanta.
ALL OF'THE DETAILS PERFECTED.
The Usual Attendance Expected and a Meet
ing of Great interest.
IMPOETAKT MATTERS TO BE DISCUSSED.
Eeteral Local Evils Taat Mij Demand Considerable
Attention.
General Secretary Hayes, of the Knights
of Labor, 'has completed arrangements for
the international convention of that order
in Atlanta, beginning November 12. Low
rates have been secured at the hotels for
delegates and their families, and a hall en
gaged for ten days or longer. The order is
reported in excellent condition.
rSFECTAL XEXZOBAX TO TRZ DIBPATCII.l
Atlanta October 22. The Interna
tional Convention of the Knights of Labor,
or the "General Alssemoly of the "World,"
as it is called, will convene in Atlanta on
November 12. This will bring here
200 or 300 delegates from all parts of the
United States, Canada, England, Germany,
France and Austria. The foreign delegates
will include distinguished men, possibly
John Burns.
Mr. J. "W. Hayes, the General Secretary
and Treasurer, has been in the city for sev
eral days making arrangements for the
meeting. He was met by a party of Atlanta
Knights of Labor, and the details have all
been perfected. Special terms have been
made by the hotels, and the average will be
$1 a day. At the Kimball rooms tor 75 have
been engaged, and Mr. Powderly and the
General Executive Board will have their
headquarters there. The rates at the Kim
ball for the Executive Board will be $2 a
day. Beside this, arrangements have been
made in private houses for those delegates
who will be accompanied by ladies.
THE MEETING PLACE.
The Assembly will meet in Knights of
Honor Hall, at 38 South Broad Btreet The
room will seat 600 to 700, and was rented by
Mr. Hayes for 10 days or longer. Desk's
and every facility will be provided. The
Committee on Law will meet on November
6, and the Credentials Committee will con
vene on the 10th. Mr. Powderly will arrive
on the Gtb, and with him a number of prom
inent members of the order, including
Charles H. Litchman, Dick Trevelick,
George Blyer, John Devlin, of Detroit; A.
"W. "Wright, of Toronto; John Costello, of
Pittsburg; J. J. Holland, of Jacksonville,
and Mrs. L. M. Barry, director of woman's
work.
Secretary Hayes reports a great advance
in the condition of the order in the past
jti. When it adjourned at Minneapolis
t was greatly in debt Now all the debts
are paid and there is money enough in the
treasury to pay the expenses of all the dele
gates. Beside this, the order has property
worth over 5300,000.
"It has been the general impression," said
a prominent local Knight to-day, "that the
order has been on the wane for the past year.
On the contrary, there has been
A GEEAT INCREASE,. t
TnTspite of the last that many have with
drawn to form trades unions and other labor
organizations, according to the recommend
ation of their Executive Board. Tne order
comes to Atlanta with 200,000 members, and
we have in Atlanta about 2,000. The At
lanta membership already shows signs of
new life. It is not yet known whether
Henry George and Dr. McGIynn will be
here, but a number of distinguished re
formers are expected to be present, among
them, probably, Washington Gladden.
"The Heights ot .Labor were invited here
by the State and city officers, and it is' prob
able that they will be welcomed with short
speeches by the Mayor and the Governor.
Besides the secret work of the order, there
will be public meetings and addresses, the
programme of which will be made up when
Mr. Powderly arrives. There are some in
teresting questions to be discussed. The
proposition of the trades unions for a gen
eral strike in 1890 to secure the eight-hour
day will come up, and an effort will be
made to get the co-operation of the Knights
of Labor, who have heretofore opposed the
strike by a considerable majority. The
question of trusts will occupy some time,
especially the larger combinations and rail
road monopolies."
ITEMS OP INTEEEST.
A local Knjght says the Bichmond and
West Point Terminal combination will be
discussed and handled without gloves. The
Olive bill, lately pending in the Georgia
Legislature, will also come up, as well as
the child labor bill, recently passed here;
the arbitration bill, and the ten-hour bill,
now pending. Secretary Hayes thinks
Georgia far ahead of most'States in legisla
tion ot this kind. The farmers have a ma
jority of the lower House.
Another important subject of discussion
will be the control of telegraph companies by
the Government, and n memorial to Con
gress on that subject will probably be adopt
ed. The strike now in progress in the mining
region of Alabama, the one on the Louis
ville and Nashville Bailroad, and all strikes
which have occurred among Knights of
Labor dnring the past year will be reported
on and discussed. -The city of Atlanta will
furnish material for discussion on the ques
tion of employing convict labor in the city
limits. This county (Fulton) employs the
misdemeanor convicts of a number of coun
ties, and the force has largely been employed
within the city limits. The City Conncil ap
plied to the Legislature for .the authority to
discriminate between
FREE AND CONVICT LABOB.
in bids of contracts for city work, but that
part of the amendment to the city charter
wasrefnsed by the Legislature. Resolu
tions touching this subject were indorsed
by the Knights of Labor, who will try
again for the amendment
A feature of the week while the General
Assembly is here will be the presence of a
convention of leading colored men called
together to formulate their grievances
against the white men. It will give the
working men of the country an opportunity
to see the class who do the work of the
South.
Tne Piedmont Exposition, which now
keeps the town full to overflowing, will
have ended, and the town will be in posses
sion of the Knights of Labor for the time.
Atlanta will give them a warm reception.

one day was sufficient time, and ordered the
trial to be resumed Thursday morning. Mr.
Forrest, leading the defense, was opposed to
wasting any more time. He wanted to be

Beggs, was also opposed to any delay.
The last juror to be accepted was Ben

Boston, October 22. Dr. William Thorn
ton, who is the defendant in the somewhat
remarkable suit brought by the proprietor
of a gambling house to recover 515,800,
which the Doctor won at the roulette wheel,
has quite a reputation here for playing
big stakes. At first he lost heavily,
but kept on playing, and on the
night of January 31 and February 1, his
luck returned with a rush. He won on
every play. The ball seemed bewitched in
his favor. Wherever he placed his chips
and each one represented $5 the ball
stopped. There was bat $4,000 in the bank
and it was soon in the doctor's possession. He
played single numbers and every time he
won his stakes were multiplied 35 times.
His winnings for the night were $10,000.
He took $4,000 in cash and a check for
$6,000. Henry Beeb, the proprietor of the
club, cashed the check that afternoon.
The next night the doctor tried his luck
again, and carried off $2,000. The next
4th ot February he stopped, alter. winning
luck. A few days later Dr. Thornton" BfnMn.
uigu ue won an equal amount, anu aa vac
visited the club and lost $d,000. He didn't
have the cash with him, and tendered his
note, payable in 14 days. The doctor dis
honored this note on the ground that the
note was given by him in consideration oi
money lost at gambling.

Ne-w Yobk, October 22. George W.
Vanderbilt has begun to put to use the ex

thing of a mystery. What was
begun this week under direction
of Frederick Law Olmstead, the land

one of the most beautiful pieces of land
scape in the world. Beside miles of drives,
it will contain artificial lutes, fountains.

of the finest public parks. At the same time,
Bichard M. Hunt, the architect, is -preparing
to construct, in the heart of the do
main, one of the most elegant residences
that art, skill and money can devise and
create.
Mr. Yanderbilt's ownings aggregate
5,000 acres, and the extensive plans on
which his preparations have been made
give rise to the reports that it was his in
tention to found in Asheville an institution
like Tuxedo Park for thebenefit of himself
andsome wealthy associates. This is un
true. The estate is to be simply a private
residence for Mr. Vanderbilt

is at least weak-minded, and was once con
fined in a lunatic asylum.
rsPZCIAI. TXLXOBAU TO TOT DISPATCH.!
Bbookltn, N. Y., October 22. William
Daniels tried, hard. this afternoon to murder
his sister, Miss Mary Daniels, at the house
of their aged father, Thomas Daniels, 600
Marcy avenue. He fired six BhoU from a
revolver at his sister, nearly all of them at
very close range, but only two took effect,
and the wonnds inflicted are not considered
dangerous. ,
The shooting was the sequel to a bitter
quarrel over some, property which had been
left by their mother. The brother is 48
years old and the sister is 37. Their father
is nearly 80. Six months ago the latter re
tired from the bookbinding business in
New York City. He got about $4,000 for
the use of his name in the firm. He placed
this money in the bank for the benefit of his
daughter Mary and an idiot son who is in
the asylum.
CAUSE OF THE SHOOTING.
The son, William, who is married and has
children of his own, waa greatly incensed
against his sister on account of this disposi
tion of the money. He had had previous
trouble with his sister about the will of their
mother, who died about a year ago. Mrs.
Daniels owned the house in Marcy avenue,
and she left it to her daughter Mary and
the sou in the asylum. William contested
the will on the ground of undne influence,
and it was set aside and the Surrogate.
ordered the property to be sold and equally
divided between the'heirs.
Since this litigation the father has heard 1
that when he should die his son would drive
Mary from the house, and it was mainly on
this account that he placed the $4,000 in the
bank to her account- Subsequently Will
iam told his father that Mary was trying to
poison him, and he seems to have convinced
him, for the old man began a suit against
his daughter for the recovery of the $4,000,
Two weeks ago the suit was tried in the city
court, and it resulted in a verdict for the
daughter, the Court concluding that the
money was a free gift. ,
PBIGHTENElV BY HI3.THEBAI3.
William became mors and more incensed
against his sister, and made snch threats
against her life that she left the house aad
went to live with a relative at 39 Pulaski

but dinner was cooked and eaten withont
any disturbance. When .Mary and her
cousin however, were preparing to leave,
something was said.which excited William,
and, drawing a revolver from his hip pocket,
he seized his sister by the neck with his left
hand, and pressing her forearm and throw
ing her down on the floor, he fired two shots
at her in rapid succession. She succeeded
in freeing herself from his grasp, and, rush
ing tnrougn tne nanway, managed to reach
the street without being hit by four other
bullets which her brother sent after her.
These bullets passed over her head.
two shots take effect!
With blood pouring over her face, the
woman ran a half a block, when she fell
from the effect of the shock. She was taken
to a neighbor's honse. Drs. Fold and Hall
found that of the two bullets which had
taken effect one had passed through the
right shoulder and the other had flattened
itself against the skull over the right tem
ple. This latter was extracted in two pieces,
and as tne sxuii was not iracturea it is ex
pected she will recover. Miss Daniels,
however, has been in delicate health for
some time.
After emptying his revolver, Daniels went
upstairs and locked himself in a room on the
top floor; but when four policemen from the
Gates avenue station arrived he opened
the door and surrendered himself. He

police station, placed a loaded revolver on
the desk, and told the Sergeant that he was

allowed at large, he was sure to kill some
one. He was sent to the Flatbnsh asylum,
