Alexander w. ROss Contracts Two Marriages In Less Than Three months-The Records of the Regts- trar Attest 1t.
 Alexander W. Ross, an Englishman, who came to this city as cashier for Heublein when the attractive cafe was opened, is a pigamist according to the records at the of- ice of the registrar of vital statistics in this oity. Ross was employed at the Hartford club after coming to this country and was by 1t recommended to Heublein. He was dis charged by the latter some three months ago and returned to the Hartford club. Ross has been wont to go off on spree quite fire. quently, and at these times, 1t is thought, is l not responsible for what he does- He was married at St. Mary's church this city, May l 26, to Elizabeth Murray, whose residence on tho marriage certificate is given as New Ha- ! ven, but who is thought to belong in Hart l ford. What has become of the wife is not known, but it is quite probable that she has | been living with him in Hartford. On Au. gust 12 Ross was married by the Rev. E. 8. ! Lines of St. Paul's church to Hannah Brick son, Swede, employed at the place where Ross was formerly cashier. This certificate | was returned to the registrar @ day or two since, and when that official came to write up his records the bigamy was discovered. Ross was shrewd in obtaining the second license. He chose time when the registrar who granted the first was away, and his sis ter in the office. To her Ross applied, was put through the usual examination, and all things appearing straight the license was is, sued. The case was reported to the police last evening.
 The whereabouts of Ross are not known, but he is supposed to be in Hartford. He was in this city few days ago in an inebri ated condition and stopped at the Fremont It was rumored last night that these were moi the only marriages Ross has contracted dur ing his career He is said to be well de- scended and that his father is a government officer of nigh standing in England. Ross friends think tha+ he is not in his righ mind at times
 Hannah Erickson, the woman Ross mar ried only last week, is spoken of as an in dustrious woman. She is faithful to he work and performs what she has to do to the entire satisfaction of her employer. She has shown something of 8 preference for Ross and the foolish marriage of few days sine | ia the raan1t
