li. J. Williams, of the firm of Wil
liams & McAnulty, has been elected
vice-president of the Wall Paper Job
bers' association. Mr. Williams was
chosen vice-president at one of the
conferences of the association In New
York city, where It has ben in session
for about two. weeks.
A Philadelphia woman committed
suicide the day before yesterday rather
than tell her age. Her husband had
left her because of this natural retic
ence on her part and she foolishly la
mented the loss of the cruel companion
to such a degree that with the alter
native of confessing her age she pre
ferred death to living wtlthout him. Her
mode of departure was also as uncom
fortable ns a mixture of strychinlne
and Paris green could afford.
A Scranton woman was snbpocned
on a case which was to be heard before
arbitrators. The first witnesses wern
sworn and the Scrantonlnn suddenly
became convinced that she would be
expected to tell her age so she promptly
fled from the court house and .took the
next train for the country, sent for a
doctor and forwarded his certificate
to the effect that she was too 111 to ap
pear on that case.
"Some of these days I'll be found a
stiff, cold corpse," remarked a pretty
girl last evening on the Mulberry street
line, "and .the newspapers will say:
'Another woman jumped from a car
with her face the jvrong way.' When
It won't bo that at all. You see," sho
went on, "I've grown so used to skip
ping off my wheel, landing on one foot
end giving that queer little hop we all
take, that I'm always doing It when I
Bet oft a car. Two or three times I've
been jerked almost under the wheels,
not to mention the headers I've had,
and one of these days the habit will
finish me. I've heard a lot of girls say
they do the same thing." Just then
he came to her corner, performed the
hops and-skips she had described and
eat down more or less decidedly on a
rea lantern perched at the top of a
eand heap at the side of the track,
while the conductor looked back sym
pathetically as the car sped up the
hill.
Speaking about Mulberry street now
that the track has been re-laid the
cars slip past so emoothly, that bar

PLAN AGAINST
GOULDS EXPLODED
Mrs. Angell Admits Sbe Was Not tbe
Wife of tin Wizzard of Wall Street.
SAW DIM ONLY ONCE OR TWICE
She M'ni Drngnod Into tho Conspirncy
by Persons Who Expected to Enrich
Themselves by (Jotting a Portion of
tho (iotild Milllons--It Wns n Dar
ing Scheme nnd Had Been Planned
nnd Arranged with Croat Cnro.
Tho New York Herald Sunday con
tained a page story giving the details
of the exposure of a most daring nt
tempt to got n portion of the millions
left by the late Jay Gould, of New
York. Mrs. Sarah Anne Browne An
Boll, of Rouse's Point, N. Y was tho
person through whom a number of con
spirators worked. They had Mrs. An
gell nssert that she was the widow of
tho late Jay Gould; that ho married
her while he was doing dome survey
ing In New York state, and that they
had one child, a daughter, now married
and residing In the west.
So cleverly did the conspirators ar
range their plans that they found a
clergyman who married the couple, a
man who acted as groomsman and a
number of persons who heard Gould
acknowledge that Mrs. Angell was his
wife. Local Interest Is lent to the con
spiracy by the fact that Gould was
alleged to be living with Mrs. Angell
at tho time ho conducted the tannery
nt Stroudsburg. One of the witnesses
who swore recently in New York that
she heard Gould acknowledge way back
In the 'CO's that he was Mrs. Angell's
husband was a Mrs. Brown who for
merly resided In this city. She now
makes Cnllfornla her place of abode.
In an Interview with a Herald repre
sentative, after much persuasion, Mrs.
Angell told how she was dragged into
the scheme and then said:
NEVER MARRIED GOULD.
" 'I never was married to Jay Gould.
No, I married a man named Derusse,
In Champlaln In 1833, and a fine bit of
a man he was, too. He came from Eu
rope, and he came near havlns five
millions, and that's the way Mrs. Cody
got mixed up. Yea, Mrs. Pierce Is my
own child, from Derusse. She Is my
daughter. My sister, Mrs. Walker,
could not say she was present when
Mary Jane was born, for mother sent
all the children out of the house away,
until It was nil over. My sister is only
six or seven years older than my
daughter. No, Derusse was not home
when the child was born; he came
home two or three days afterward.
Then, If I had been married to Jay
.Gould, how could I have married John
Angell while he lived? What kind of
a. woman do they take me for, any
way? " 'Yes, I think I saw Gould once or
twice when I was a young girl and he
was looking round these parts. Well,
how about my daughter? Just this
way. I never had any education and
I made up my mind she should have
learning and bo brought un a ladv.
After her father died I gave her to n
family by the name of Morton, llvlnr
In Rldgeway, Canada, and they brought
ner up as Mary Jane Morton, and she
Is married to a very good man and
well-to-do, and living out In Wyoming.
" 'How did I ever come to hear of the
Goulds? Well, this way. Some twenty
yeats asro I heard that a very dear
relative of mine was In trouble, and
I went out to Caldwell, Mo., where she
was, to see her. I found she had been
betrayed under promise of marriage,
and that the father of the child was
a near relation of the Goulds. Then
when they came to me to prove my
self Jay Gould's wife, I never swore
that I had married Jason Gould, never
said that I had, but I felt that I had
a right to some of that money, and If
George Gould would only come to see
me he should come I would explain
It all, and then this thing would die
out. You see, to save the other party
they put It all on my shoulders.
CHANGED HER NAME.
" 'How did It come my name used to
be Sarah Anne Brown and now It is
Mary? Well, I never was baptized, and
when I was I did not like the name of
Sarah Anne and took that rt Mary. I
become a Catholic and my daughter
was baptized one. Derusse was on-,
too. I don't go to church, but I am a
v;o.d woman tor aV. that.
" 'No,' she said, as I bade her good
by, 'I never married Jay Gould. You
tell George or Helen Gould to come and
see me and I will explain everything,
and then this will die out.'
"She stood In the doorway of her little
house as I drove away, and I turned
and looked back at the woman whose
name was known In two continents
nnd who had been the unwitting tool
of a lot of sharpers. I had practical
proof that sho Is thoroughly honest. I
saw a large sum of money offered her;
money which would havo provided
many a little necessity during tho com
ing winter and which she sadly needed,
but sho shook her head In a determined
manner and replied firmly: "No, I
won't take any money." And sho did
not, In the face of many well advanced
arguments ns to why she should.
"So tho great scheme to get a' goodly
slice of the Gould millions has finally
exploded llko a soap bubble, and a poor
old couple In Rouse's Point have had
the even tenor of their uneventful
lives disturbed nnd n jarring clement
of unrest and expectation Introduced
which can never be satisfied or grati
fied." STATE DELEGATES.
Chosen by the Members of the Junior
Republican Club.
The Junior Republican club got to
gether last night to take breath for the
hard work nheud. Tho meeting was
held In the rooms of the Central Re
publican club and was well attended.
During the evening Attorney M. W.
Lowry, Frederick Fleitz and W. E.
Davis called and encouraged the boys
with kind words, advice and oratory.
After the speechmaklng the club

8. The delegates are: Lou Senker, G.

SEPARATED TIIIRTV-FIVE YEARS.
ricrnnton Womnn Accidentally Finds
n Long Lost Sister.
At an excursion last Fourth of July
Mrs. James J. Jordan, of this city, met
an old friend whom sho had not seen
since leaving Ireland, nearly forty
years, and learned through the chance
meeting that her sister, whom she had
not heard from In thirty-five years,
and who sho supposed was dead, wns
living In New York state.
Inquiries were Immediately Bet afoot
and after much correspondence and
advertising the long lost sister, whose

GAMBLE CHARGED
WITH BIGAMY

It Is Snid That Ho 11ns llccn

Venture Was on July "0, 181)0,
When ilo .Married Miss Suslo A.
Klotz.
John E. Gamble, tho man whose ar
rest for desertion and non-support In
Philadelphia, Monday, was noted in
yesterday's Tribune, Is now In tho
county Jail In default of $1,000 ball to
answer a charge of bigamy. When
Gramblo was arraigned before Alder
man John T. Howe yesterday tho
charge of desertion and non-support of
his wife. Susie A. Klotz, wns with
drawn In favor of tho more serious
charge of bigamy.
The story which explains this chango
Is one of vengeance tor an Irreparablo
wrong the family of the deceived girl
lending every effort to capture and
punish Gamble to the fullest extent of
the law.
To do this John H. Spnln, a brother-in-law
of the Klotz woman, suffered
himself to associate with Gamble as
his friend and In this guise Spain, who
bitterly hates the man, secured the In
formation for his arrest on a charge of
bigamy.
The Klotz family live near Goulds
boro, In Clifton township. July 2G, 1896,
at Phllllpsburg, N. J., Gamble married
Susie A. Klotz, then a resident of this
city, and on the following April a child
was born. The couple lived happily
together until a short time previous to
Aug. 7, on which date Mrs. Gamblo
swore out a warrant before Aldermnn
Howe, charging desertion and non-support.
WENT TO PHILADELPHIA.
Gamble could not be found at that
time, but It was learned that he had
gone to Philadelphia. The relatives of
the Injured girl learning of this con
tributed to the expense and assigned
to the H. D. Lilcox National Detective
agency of Philadelphia the task of find
ing Gamble.
A few days ago at midnight John
II. Spain, the brother-in-law, received
a message telling him that Gamblo had
been located. Spain lost no time. He
aroused Alderman Howe from his bed
at his home on Mulberry street nnd In
the early hours of the morning1 Alder
man Howe went to his office, at the
corner of Lackawanna and Washing
ton avenues, and made out a duplicate
warrant. Spain took this to Constable
Carman, of the Eighth ward, and had
himself authorized to serve the war
rant and then secured a pair of hand
cuffs at the police station. He loft on
the 2.45 a. m. Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western train for the city of
Brotherly Love.
Gamble wns formally arrested and
Spain brought him here Monday night.
During the trip back Spain made pre
tenses of friendship for Gamble and
succeeded In wringing out of him some
useful evidence.
MARRIED THREE TIMES.
It was learned that he had two wives
before he married the Klotz girl. One
secured a divorce In Trenton, N. J.; the
other Is now In Philadelphia and, It Is
said, divorce proceedings are now pend
ing there. The women In each case In
stigated the suits.
When tho Klotz woman learned of
Gamble's former wives sho preferred
the charge of bigamy and at the hear
ing before Alderman Howe yesterday
Gamble waived a hearing and was
placed under $1,000 ball. Gamble's
means of earning a livelihood are not
known. In appearance he Is short and
stocky built, apparently about 30 years
of age. When he left tho Klotz woman
he took with him all the papers per
taining to their marriage.
