rsrEcrAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.i
BEAVER FALLS, April S.-A well-dressed
young woman entered the Office OF Justice
Piper here, yesterday afternoon, and wanted
to make an information against two un-
known men for robbing her and afterwsrd
throwing her into the river. She gave her
name as Mrs. S1sie Newton, of Freedom,
and said that afternoon she wss walking
along the track OF the Pittsburg and Lake
Erie Railroad, when she was met by two
men, who stripped her of her money and
jewelrv and without further ado threw her into
The river
At this point she ran behind the railing, and
70 give practical illustration of how the men
had grabbed her, she threw her arms around
the neck Of the old Justice, who discovered to
his horror that the woman was intoxicated. He
called sn officer and had her placed in the
Lookup and when she sobered up she was re-
leased and disappeared. Her story was thought
TO have been myth until to-day, when 1t was
learned that il was too true. lot OF Italian
iabo-eTs were a that point and witnessed the
outrage, and only arrived in time to help the
woman from the river, or she would certainly
have drowned.
The secret of the poor woman's intoxicatIon
then came out. The Italians carried her to
shelr boarding house, where the women re-
vlved her ana gave her a lot of vlllainous whisky
20 strengthen her. In her weak state she be-
came intoxicated. and severe comments are ut
tered against the Justice tor SO hastily impTls-
o1ng her. The Italians have given an excel
lent description of the men who committed the
outrage, and the police are on the lookout for
them.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
ERIE, April S.--A novel suit for divorce will
come up in court here in May the petitioner
being Mary E. Sharp, of this city The re-
spondent is Albert McElroy. also of Erie.
The plaintiff sets forth in her petition that on
Wednesday. March IL she was taken to the
town of Ripley, \. Y, without her knowledge
or consent. and that she was under the influ-
ence Of drugs administered to her by McElroy,
Tor the purpose of improperly and illegally
having marriage ceremony performed; that
She has since learned, during her stay In Rip
lev, that she was taken before Justice LYMAN
Bennet and was married, but of that she has
no personal knowledge, she being under the in
tuence Of drugs; that she has since seen the
marriage certificate, of which she has a copy:
that the residence of each is given as Cleve-
land, when IN truth their residence is Erie;
that She is in fear of her life by threats the re-
Spondent made before and since their mar
rage. and therefore asks to be freed from the

THE ROPE WAS WEAK.
1t Barely Stood the Strain of Dave Nicely's
Weight at the Hanging.

FrEc1AL TKLEoKAM TO THE DISPATCH.
JOHSsTOwN. April S.-Sheriff Good was in
the city to-day, and said he has reason for con-
graduation that be escaped serious trouble at
the execution of the Nicelys. After the rope
was taken from the neck of Dave it was laid
aside and not examined for some time. When
il was finally looked at il was found that one
strand had given way under the severe strain
and parted in two. The break was close to the
moose at the back of the neck and the Sheriff
says he shudders even yet when he thinks of
what would have followed had the rope broken
de had with him. of course, old man Bopp of
Allegheny, and new moose would soon have
been ued by the maker of the rope; but, never
theless. there would have been most distress
ing scene. The Sheriff said the giving wav of
the strand was caused either by defect in the
material or of the construction of the rome
This would seem self-evident, as Dave was
much lighter than Joe and the rope which
strangled the latter did not yield in the least
