ed by the police of this clcy. The in
tended victim was James D. Dowel),
wholesale grocer, and Kepubllcan can
didate (or Mayor at the recant election,
lie is one ot the richest man in the
State and one of the best known Repub
licans. Mr. Dewell is a man of family,
and moves In the highest circle ot soci
ety. The affair has created a decided
sensation.
Withlu the past- two weeks Mr. De
well has reoelvod a number of letters
from Mrs. Sidney Coe, a colored wo
mun, living at No. Davenport ave
nue. At Urst she requested Mr. Dj well
to aid her financially, us she was In
great distress. Ho paid no attention to
thesa letters, but yesterday received an
other. This wai of a different nature
nnd earnestly roquesto 1 Mr, Dawell to
call at her bouse last nlgiit, as she
would be alone and oould see him pri
vately. The letter was given to tho police,
and Detective Cowoles, disguised as Sir.
Dewell, went to Mm home. Mrs. (Joe
met him and escorted him to a cham
ber, bhe failed to see through his dis
guise. Five minutes later tUe husbjml
rushed Into the room and demanded
$1,500, and threatened, It payment was
refused to slioot "Mr. Dewell." The
detective gave a signal, two officers
rushed in, and tho blackmailers were
arrested. The couple huva succeeded in
getting several thousand dollars out of
prominent citizens by this scheme. Coe
and bis wife are mulattoes.
The man is about 53 years old. lie
is bright and shrewd. The woman is
25 and good-looking. They were mar
ried a month ago. Coe has beeu mar
ried twice before, and one of his wives
was white. Not long ago a sister died
in California and left htm $15,000,
which he squandered In riotous living.

Complications In Helalloiiilitp ChusmX
by th Slater-lluut Altarrlaj-e.
Wasiunqtox, Deo. 11 A most fash
ionable and romantic wedding took
place in St. John's Church last
night, when Miss Enid Hunt was led to
the altar by Mr. Samuel Slater, son of
the 1'rovldence, It. I., millionaire. The
ceremony was performed by Bishop
Donne, of Albunv, a relative of the
bride. There were 11 ushers and a
rhaid ot honor, Miss Bralley, of Iioiton.
By the wedding there arises some
curious complications in tho rela
tionship of members of the two fami
lies. Scarcely three months ago the
groom's father, Horatio Nelson Slater,
who Is over 70 years old, was married to
the bride's younger sister, not yet ou?
of her teens, at Uar Harbor. The father
and son thus become brotber-in-law,
whllo the younger sister becomes her
elder sister s mother-in-law.

New YonK, Dec. 11, Tho heirs of
Thomas Dongan, Governor ot the col
ony of Now York In 1000, nro preparing
to bring a seusatlonnl suit to tost the
title to millions of dollars' worth ot real
estate located In this city aud now in
the possession of some of the wealthiest
and most influential men In tha city.
The property Involved includes many
lots In the lower part of the city, be
tween Whitehall street and the City
Hall, and the majority ot the lots touch
Broadway, making them tha most valu
able pieces of real estate In the city.
Thomas Dongan was a confirmed
bachelor when he received his appoint
ment us Governor of tho colony ot New
York, nnd he remained 11 bachelor until
the day of his death in 1715. He had
relatives in England, hut none of them
seems to have followed bis fortunes in
America, nor to have known whether he
had amassed a fortune or not at tho
time of his death.
Yenis after the death of Governor
Thomas Dongan many of the descend
ants of bis relatives left Kugluttd and
came to America in tho hopes of better
ing tbeir fortunes.
The descendants of these, in turn,
have scattered nil over the country, and
cau be found lu various States from New
York to California. In this section of
the country, however, the majority ot
them aru located, aud some UJ of tho
heirs in this city and lirooklyu have
combined together to contest the dis
puted titles. Many lawyers regard their
chances us very shut.
Prominent umuug those who claim to
be the heirs of '1 nomas Dongan are
George H. Jackson, Atwood 1). Jackson,
Charles 11. Juckson, Henry P. Toombs,
Gilbert V, Stevenson, William B.
Toombs ,l 1 Walter Dongan of Brook
lyn. The prot' iw in the possession
ot tin- 1 ..- . .1 e-,t.iui, James Gor
don l.cuii- rt, i .e Asters and others.
The deed .111.. vh.. h the present pos
sessors el., .,1 1 .1j , . a deed knowu as
the "Sboemakcis' Deed." It has often
been referred to in historical sketcnes,
and gained its name from the taet
that the majority of the men who sign
ed it were shoemakers. Tho signers of
this deed were four men nnd one womau.
All the signers owned property ad
joining that claimed as the Dongan
property. Tho Dongan heirs now claim
that In executing that deed those who
were pnrties to it conspired together to
commit n gross fraud upon tho rights of
Governor Dongan and those who might
be entitled to inherit his property.
The alleged heirs will attempt to prove
that the signers of the deod waited un
til 1715 to tecard It, although it was
drawn up in loOij, In order to divide up
Dongan's laud among themselves. Dou
gun died in 1710, nnd the deed was re
corded shortly uftorvvard.
It Is alleged that the conspiracy suc
ceeded so well that tor nearly 'M years
the titles have remained undisputed.
Now for tlio Urst titne.lt is claimed,
has the fraudulent conspiracy beeu un
earthed. Tunic on the Hours.
