William B. Van Aken, Who Had an Im
aginary Claim Against Mr. McThtrson,
Fretted a F.evolver Against
Hit Htart.
New York, May 19. An attempt was
made yesterday to kill ex-United States
Senator J. R. McPherton, of New Jer
sey, In his office, In the Aldrldge build
ing, this city. William U. Van Aken,
who made the attempt, Is partly blind.
Van Aken had an accomplice In the
matter, whose name la unknown, and
who escaped. Van Aken waa arrested.
Mr. McPherson, who is president ft
the West Yards Stock company, watt In
his office when Van Aken and his com
panion entered, having passed thiouQh
KX-8KXATOR MPHEUHO!f.
the outer office, In whlcn Edward V.
Low, Mr. Mel'herson's secretary, was
seated. Soon after the senator hurried
from his office Into Mr. Low's room.
Groping his way in a fury of blind
haste Van Aken followed. His compan
ion was endeavoring to guide him
through the doorway, but Van Alton
hurried ahead, putting his hands out
In front of him to feel his way. Before
Mr. Low could rise from his seat Van"
Aken clutched the ex-senator with his
right hand and fumbled with his left
behind his back. Van Aken's com
panion at this Juncture hurried out of
the room.
Whan Mr. Low caught Van Ahen's
arm the halt blind man had succeeded
In pulling a revolver from his pocket.
He had raised it until the muzzle was
almost against the ex-senator's heart.
With a quick movement Mr. Low Bjja
ed the revolver and prevented It being
discharged. Other tenants rushed In,
and Van Aken was soon overpowered.
Ex-Senator McPherson, who Is ad
vanced In years, has not yet fully re
covered from the shook. He Is In feeble
health, and lias for some time been so
weak that a nurse always accompanies
him to his office.
Van Aken was once a wealthy New
Jersey contractor. Some time ago Mr.
McPherson bought one of hie farms at
a mortgage sale, and Van Aken had an
Idea that the ex-senator owed hlni
J280.000, having; recently brought tult
to recover the amount. He .called to
demand a settlement, was repulsed, and
the attempt at murder followed.
When Van Aken was arraigned In
court Itufus N. Williams, his attorney,
said that he would not put In any de
fense, and the cnae was set for the
Eyand Jury, Van Aken being held by
Magistrate Kudllch In $3,000 ball. Mr.
Williams went out to look for a bonds
man, and the prisoner was taken to the
Tombs. The charge against him la at
tempted felonious assault.
