New YonK, Oct. 18. The good luck ol
Edwin St. Rayn, formerly nn nctor ol
this city, is just now much talked ol
among theatrical folks.
St. ftayn Is said to be the lielr to a for
tuno of over $1,000,000, nnd a firm of
New York lawyers, acting for tho estate
which ho has Inherited, have located
him nftor a long search.
II e is nn lnmnto of tho Western Peni
tentiary In AlUghony City, Pa. Ho al
leges that ho is nn Innocent man and did
not commit the crlmo for which ho Is
serving a sentence of ono year nnd a half.
Soveral professionals who woro seen
had no difficulty in recalling St. Rayn.
They said that five or six Years ngo he
was n fair nctor In traveling companies
starting out of New York. Hob Milliard
said that ho had known St, Rayn, and
Fiod lloud also recollected nn actor
whom ho believed to -be Identical with
the aliened heir to a great estate.
The story is a romantlo one nnd has
been Investigated by a reporter of
Pittsburg newspaper, who vouches for
Its accuracy. Ho also Interviewed St.
llnyn lu tho Western Penitentiary nnd
was furnished by tho prisoner with facts,
dates anil documents corroborating It in
its entirety,
Some months ago Louis Bo Ambolso, n
wealthy Cuban plante, mod In Havana,
leaving Ills fortuno of over a million dol
lars to one Edwin St. Rnyn, an American
actor.
Tno trustee of tho estate havo since
been searching for tho logatee and
believo that at last ho hits boon dis
covered. St. Rayn says that ho Is n native of
New York City, and that his real namo
Is J. Edwin Rayn. Six years ago tho
company of which ho was a member was
playing In Now Orleans,
One night after tlio performance, bt.
Rayn was going homo to his lodgings
when he cameu pon thrco roughs who
had attacked nu oldorly gentloman and
aiyoung lady who accompanied him.
It was in a dnrK ami unfrequented
street, nnd the assailants were rapidly
ovorcoming tho pedestrians.
Fortunately bt. liayn carried a heavy
walking-stick, nnd ho rushed to the res
cue. His blows caused tho roughs to
rush oil, but not before one of them had
severely stabbed tlio actor with a pocKct
knlfo. The gentleman proved to bo Louis
Do Ambolse, and tho lady was his only
daughter, Edith.
They loaded St. Rayn with protesta
tions of their gratitude, and insisted
upon conveying him to their hotol,
whoro his Injury was attended to. Miss
Edith promptly folf id love with the
nctor, but her father salt nay.
He desired tho girl to -marry Horace
Leigh, her cousin, whom sho disliked.
When St. Rayn had recovered ho iilQjnod
with Miss Do Araboiso and they woVo
mnrrled.
St. Rayn lived in Cuba for a year or
two and then went oil with a theatrical
company. Ho says that In his absence
Horace Leigh convinced Sirs. St, Rayn
that her husband was unfaithful to his
mai-rlnge vows, and she socurod a di
vorce. St. Rayn travelled all over this coun
try and llnally turned up In Westmore
land County, Pa., two years ago. Thore
ho was charged with committing an
ofteuco of which ho asserts ho was en
tirely innocent, claiming to havo been
the victim of n conspiracy.
AVhlle in prison ha Ambolso and Mrs.
St. Rayn both died in Cuba. In his will
Do Ambotso states that ho did St. Rayn
n great wrong in helping to separate his
wire Irom mm, anil no desires to mnko
all tho reparation in his power. Ho
therefore left tho estate to the adventur
ous actor, whose whereabout." have Just
been ascertained.
It Is said that St. Ravn has secured
counsel, who are making efforts to havo
hini set free on habeas corpus proceed
ings.
St. Rayu's strange story Is corrobo
rated bysome poopla at Joanotto, Pa., to
whom he relatod the circumstances some
timo before the death of his weathy
latlier-lu-iaw.
Upon his release St. Rayn promises to
produce papers which will provo his Iden
tity without a doubt.

In the sleeper were ton passengers,

Thoy all receivod a lively shaking up,

that an attempt was made to wrecli tua

Tho Dalton gang Is supposod to have

morallzo tho Market by Iluslng Leopold
Itopreseut Gould nnd reign n ratal In
jury Mtight Havo Consontod, but Feared
11,-lng Mobbed.
New York, Oct 13. Pam Leopold of
No. 81 Broadway, tho brokor who for 15
yoars has enjoyed the distinction ot be
ing Jay Gould's double, has altered his
whiskers lu order to partially roinovo tho
resemblance
Mr. Leopold has long been in doubt
whothor this strong rosomblnuce to tho
millionaire has been a benefit or a dis
advantage to him. It has cotno to be a
great bore. Now Mr. Loopold is tired,
and his dotormlnatton to escape tho dif
ficulty ot the situatl on has taken form iu
prompt action.
In 1881 he had n hard strugglo in re
fusing $20,l'00 to porsonnto Sir. Gould.
A party of speculators cooked up a
scheme to knock the stock market into
smlthoreens. Prices were extremely sen
sitive at that time, nnd It was pretty
well understood thnt only a strain or
two would be nocossary to turn the bal
nuco nnd produce a financial crash which
might echo over tho world.
Tho conspiring brokers proposod to
Leopold that ho smear somo blood on
his face and roll on tho sidewalk near
tho corner of Wall and Broad streets,
protending to be dangerously hurt. An
nmbulnncu was to havo been summoned
two minutes ahead of the "accident,"
so that tho vehicle could dash up to tlio
scene soon after a crowd gathered.
A dozou confederates were to be on
tho scone to keep tho crown back, to
partially shield tho "injure I man'' and
to ropoat occasionally, "That's Jay
Gould; ho is futility hurt."
Further details of tho plan were to
have a carriage near Chambers Street
Hospital for the purposo of taking "Mr.
Gould" to his house. Of course, Leo
pold's remarkably close resemblance to
Vould would be sufficient to make the
scheme work well.
Thou tho telograph wires woro to bo
"grounded" f. r n few hours. Tlio tre
mendous excitement would naturally
depress the Gould stocks, and, In sympa
thy, about everything would go down
with a rush. The sohemors were to take
advantage of this by selling short, and
thoy expected to havo at least from 10 to
2 o'clock In which to work this peculiarly
daring manipulation ot tho mnrket.
Ily tho tlmo tho truth would bo known
tho bold plotters would turn and go
long of tho mnrket, on the recovery from
tho tomporary shock, nnl nt least two
or throa good-sized fortunes wero ex
pected to bo realized by tho double deal.
Sam reluctantly declined the tempting
oiler. Although ho wanted tho 'JO,000
awfully bad, ho feared that he might bo
mobbed aftor tho fright was over, and so
tho schomo foil through.
At length Loopold has concluded that
notoriety as Jay Gould's doublo Is not
altogether pleasant. For years ho has
been tho target for correspondents of
rival newspapers. Now ho will huvo a
rest.
