NAUGHTY, NAUGHTY MAN.
The Singular Tale Of a VIE and
Mother.
WEALTH A CAUSE OF MISERY


NEw YoRx, July l3.-Mrs. Mary Cherou-
ney, Of Brooklyn has entered suit for Inn
tied divorce and aimony against her hus-
band, Henry Cherouney, alleging infdehty.
The defendant is resident Of this city, is
proprietor of printing establishment at
No. IL Vandewater street, and is worth
100000. The wifes story alleges deser-
ton, abduction and attempted poisoning.
Mrs. Cherouney is living on the charity
offriends in the upper part Of Fulton street,
Brooklyn. She says she was married
twenty-five years ago in Germany. They
came to New York, and while living here
eight children were born TO them, three Of
whom died Mr.. Cherouney prospered in
business, but with wealth came misery and
trouble Seven years ago, the wife says,
he became attached to q young woman,
but abandoned her in a year and returned
to his wife Five years ago she says, he
became acquainted with Elizabeth FEEDER
hch, Frenchwoman, for whom he deserted
her, and purchasing an elegant 'brown-stone
mansion in the upper part of the city went
to live there with the woman. His wife s
remonstrances were of no avail She says
he also took the three boys away from her,
leaving her with her two daughters one Of
whom is now seventeen years of age and
the other eight. About year ago, Mrs.
Cherouney saws, her husband stole her
eldest girl and sent her to Europe.
Early in February last, Mrs. Cherouney
saws her son Willie, aged 10, came to her
and said his father was going to get a di-
vorce from her in some Western State, and
in order to prevent it offered to go with her
TO the West, Without suspecting anything
wrong, Mrs. Cherouney says she placed her
daughter Josie in charge Ofa neighbor, say
ing she would return in few days.
The story she tells Of her journey is a
startling one. She says they stopped first
at Kansas City where her son furnished her
with milky fluid of disagreeable taste when
she asked for water. She was then taken
sick and begged her son to return home
They took a train and when il stopped, she
said: Willie, this is not New York
He is said to have replied: No, but it
is Jersey City, and took her to hotel.
She was too i'll to resist, though she knew it
was not Jersey City. Subsequently he took
her to the house OF Mr. Lawrence, got her
some medicine and handing her S3, said he
WAS going out to attend to some business,
but would soon return. Mrs. CherOuney,
upon inquiry, found she was in Sacramento,
Cal Her son failed to return, and she was
left pennileSs among strangers,
The people who heard her story were very
kind, and she was allowed to remain until
she could communicate with Mr.. Bennett,
her former landlord in East New York, who
raised a fund for her, enabling her to return
home When she reached Brooklyn she
found that her youngest daughter had been
taken away Mrs. Cherouuey has not since
seen her. She only returned from Califor-
MIA few days ago and at once took steps
to secure legal separation from her hus-
band

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.

An Engineer and Fireman Killed and Sew.
eral Passengers anil Trainmen Badly
Hurt.
WASHINGTON, d. c., J-iy ia colis-
ion which resulted in the loss Of two lives.
the injury of eight or more persons, the to-
tai wrecking of two engines and the demo-
ition of four cars, occurred last night on
the switch of the Baltimore 4 Ohio rail-
road, at the corner of First and / streets
northeast, within the limits of the city.
The accident il was conceded by railroad
officials, was due to carelessness or-negli-
gence, and rigid investigation will be
made to place the responsibility where it
belongs. It appears that train No I,
known as the Martinsburg local. aud due
in Washington at s:l2 p. m, came down
the Metropolitan branch twenty-four min
utes late. 1t was drawn by engine No.
62S, Michael ]. Riley, engineer, Solomon
F6lger, fireman. A. j. Mossberg was the
conductor Of the train. At the instant il
entered upon the Y switch for the purpose
of backing into the depot, train No. II,
bound from Baltimore to Pinsburg, which
was on time, entered the switch from the
east. 1t was drawn by engine sol, Albert
Ingalls, being the engineer and Geo. 0rem
the fireman. Amos Ward was the con-
ductor
The switch, on which both the trains
entered at once, is of some length. and as
il curves around several houses, neither ex.
tremity is visible from the other end. Ii
was for this reason that both engineers pro-
ceeded in ignorance Of the proximity Of
another train. AS far as could be learned
last night white light was shown to train
No. II, giving it right Of way. This
was in accordance with the rules,
At the same time red light should have
been shown to the west to tell the iiagman
at the curve to hold back the Martinsb,rg
train. Whether this was done and the
fagman failed to signal, or whether the
fagman signaled and the engineer failed to
heed, or whether il was not done At all, are
questions which could not be positively an
swered last night. John Nolan was sta.
toned at the eastern end Of the switch, and
Henry Hensler was the fagman Mt the west
ern end NJ. J. Riley and s. j. Folger were
killed. Several passengers aud trainmen
were more or less hurt.

QrEBEc JEly l3.-The opinion Of the
court in the Emo eXtradition saSe was rem
dered in French. 1t began by reciting the
details of the arrests and the various war
ranta The Judge then proceeded to deal
with she first claims of the prosecution that
the copies of the indictments were suffi-
cieut The indictment of a grand jury in
foreign country was not sufficient. These
indictments were simply in the nature
of ex parte opinions that the accused
should submit to trial before petit jury
according 10 the laws Of the United States.
Were we to conclude that this would Justify
/ his commitment here? The evidence must
/ first be submitted according TO the laws of
Canada and no proof outside of those laws
could be admitted. What proof outside Of
4 those laws could be admitted? What proof
was made before the grand jury Of New
York the Indictment did not state. We're
the court to admit the indictment as prims
tncle proof oil the gullt oil the accuSeu tue
right which our statute gave, him of proving
he had not committed a crime rendering
him liable to extradition would be illusory.
The learned jpdge then proceeded to
quote authority on this subject, the whole
leading to the definition that forgery was
the false making Of an instrument purport-
ing to be that which it is not, erthe making
or altering writing so as to make the
writing or altersrion to be the act Of some

INSIDE HISTORY.

The Plans and Schemes by Which that
DelectabIe Duo, Butler and Kelly, Were
to Defeat Governor Cleveland.
CHICAGO, July l3.-Just on the heels OF
the convention comes a story which, owing
to the fact that most of the parties men
toned have left the city, is without COM
plete verifcation. 1t is nothing more or
less than charge BY prominent citizen OF
Chicago to the effect that both Tammany
and the friends of Gen. Butler, in their on
slaught upon Gov. Cleveland, received ma
terial assistance from certain agents OF the
United States secret service division and
the Postofice Department: As this story
goes and there are certain facts which to
great degree confirm its truthfulness, gen.
tleman of Chicago, who, by reason of local
poItical strength, was believed to have the
entire control of the attendants at several
doors leading to the Exposition hall, was,
lust previous to the convention, requested
by several secret-servlce officers to meet
them for the purpose Of consulting about a
private matter. The gentleman in ques-
tion declined q more intimate acqualnt-
ance with the aforesaid detectives, and a
day or so aferward was waited on by them.
He was, after some circumloeutiOn, in
formed that the parties would like to assist
Tammany and Butler in the fight on Cleve-
land, and active negotiations were said to
be in progress looking toward the procuring
Of divers votes to that end. 1t was also
deemed desirable, he was informed, that the
friends of Tammany aud Butler should
have
Free Ingress
to the hall in order that the proper amount
of suppositiOus spontaneous enthusiasm
should be manifested whenever occasion de-
manded, and, if need be, Cleveland friends
should be the recipients of Kisses and cat
calls 1t was therefore proposed to the
Chicago man that he in some way best
known to himself, soften the hearts of the
obdurate doorkeepers at several points and
permit the house in part, at least, 10 be
packed. And, in order to give the matter
an air Of reciprocity, he was requested to
name the amount of money which, IN his
opinion, the exigencies of the case de
manded on the one hand, or the value OF
the services on the other. The proposition
was rejected, and, so far as known, fell
through.
In this connection the names of Opera
tives Perkins, Hall, and McDevitt have been
rather freely used. And the Chicago man
says the propositions hereinbetore referred
to were brought to him by one of the gentle
men named: As corroborating this state
ment MeDevitt and Perkins were said to
have been in the rooms of Tammany or
Gen. Butler the greater part of the time
and the individual first named was it is
said, in constant attendance upon Mr.. Kelly.
Moreover number of the special agents Of
the postofice department were seen night
and day at Tammanys headquarters. The
matter was quite freely talked about among
the local democracy last nigh, and, presum-
ing the charges to be founded on fact, the
question arises: did the government want
to kill Cleveland or only to raise a row?'
