woke the license OF the place, held in the
name OF Peter F. Matthews, Sullivan's

evidence against himself.
II was known that Matthews had not had
any interest.-if he ever really owned one-in
the "hotel" for at least flve months This
alone would be enough to cancel the license
for the place standing In Matthews's name.
But now comes Mr.. Jim sullivan and boldly
declares uddsr oath that he IL the real pro-
prietor OF the den. And he has the assurance
to ask that O license be issued in his own
namel
This declaration under oath Mr.. sullivan
recently made In an application for a license,
which is now on file with the Excise Board.

This deception was discovered and pointed
out to sullivan when he wanted the license OF

Then sullivan said that Matthews was his

sullivan made clean breast OF 1t and &c.

The EVENING WORLD has shown that Mr..
Sullivan not only conducted an assignation-

Sad Fate of the Aged Wife Of a
War Veteran.
Mrs. Anna Wells Was Too Proud to
Complain of Dcstitution.

II was reported by the police OF the Charles
stree, station this morning that Mrs. Annie
Wells, sixty years old died at :. Morton
street last night OF starvation. Information
CLEANED by an EVENING WORLD reporter to-
day tends to substantlate that report.
The house AT - Morton street owned by
Mrs. Borden, " 1? NaricK place, to whom
Mrs. Wells applied for lodgings on Jan. 81.
She was recommended to Mrs. Borden by a
pension agent named Lindsey. Mrs. Wells
hired small hall room In the rear on the
first fiOor for which she was to pay 81
weekly.
When she rented the room Mrs. Wells
spoke of the probable arrival OF her husband
In New York about Feb. /. He was In Phila.
delphia, She said and was book agent and "A
veteran Of the civil war. lie expected to re-
ccive certain papers which would entitle him
u pension when he got to New York.
Mrs. Wells appeared very feeble when she
took the room, and when Feb. came and
passed and her husband did not appear her

her bed.
During the two weeks she was In the house
Mrs Wells rarely left her room and the other
body and soul together, as she was never
known to bring food into the house.

room appears to have hecn the only one III

The only article of food In the room thl.
morning was part Of q Loaf or bread SO stale

remnants OF some crackers. On the bed was
the hody OF the unfortunate woman, with
face 50 drawn and worn and pinched that
Hunger seemed to be stamped with vivid
diStinctness In every lineampnt.
The housekeerer, well.ied, contcnted
WorkingwCman, said Mrs Wells "tOok her
up 50 short that she didn't care to bother
her by prOrering any assistance.
"Whrn she rrst came here she brought In

never saw her bring IN any food"
Mrs. Borden said that the old woman once
told her hat shs had a boy eleven years Old,
who was In the country. but Just where
she had not said. "shc always refused
TO accept food, and II she died OF starvation
II was because she was 100 proud to aCknowl-
