been 139 cases OF homicide within the city limits
Of these man-killers, Six committed suicide at

tWo although known, were never arrested, and
one died OF wounds after being arrested. OF
the 106 remaining, whose cases came before the
District Attorney, ono VAS sent to the House OF

one have been brought to trial, OF whom seven
teen we're acquitted and forty-four convicted.
o. those convicted two have bean awarded new
trials; two have been executed; four have been
sentenced to be hung, but are now awaiting the
decision ct the Court OF Appeals. Three have been
sentenced to State Prison for life; one for
fifteen years, and the others for less than seven

been found; in eleven otherg indictments have
been found, but no trial has taken place, and
three, it is said, have been discharged on bail

keepaie, daughter Of Perry Mapes, retired

venturer gives his name as Henry Porter Ten
Archbishop OF Canterbury. He first met the Mapes
family on railway train, and behaving rude1y
to Mrs. Mapes, called afterwards at their
residence to apologize- He was cold1y received
by the parents, but the romantic daughter took
acquaintance, eloped WITH him, was married
secretly In Poughkeepsie church, and went to
Albany. She repented and returned home, and
her father soon discovered that Tension had
another wife, who sailed from Detroit for Ire
land about FIVE weeks ago. Tension is now in
the Poughkeepsie jail charged with bigamy.
