There Is Now No Doubt that She

a cruel joke. Dr. f. l.. Oswald, OF the
hospital. said this morning that there
was probability OF Mary's recovery.
Driven to desperation by the accusa-
ton that she was thief. made by per-
sons in the neighborhood where she was
employed as domestic with Mrs.
Bridget Powers, of 2i93 Third avenue,
the unfortunate girl bought an ounce of
creosote and swallowed 1t with suicidal
intent. When an ambulance surgeon
came to the house last night she refused
to take an antidote.
"They have accused me of being a
thief, and God knows l am innocent,
she said to the physician. and don I
want to live any. longer. Take your
medicine away and leave me to die"
Mary has had a good reputation. Her
friends live somewhere In Jersey City.
Two years ago she was engaged as q
domestic by Mrs Powers. who has
young daughter, Ellen. Ellen has a young
man friend named Patrick slarney..

ASSAULTED IN A HALL.
Nellie Doyle's Screams Caused
Mahoney's Arrest.
She Declares She Was Maltreated
by Two Men.
The Prisoner Showed Fight, but
Weakened at q Revolver.

Nellie Doyle, pretty brunette, OF
twenty years. living with her mother at
1913 Second avenue, was on the verge OF
insanity this morning as she was ar
raigned before Justice Taintor, at the
Yorkville Police Court. She said she
had been the victim of an outrage at
the hands OF two men, one of whom was
captured. He proved to be James Ma
honey. twenty-one years old. of 30S East
Twenty-second street.
Nellie was very much dazed and told
a very rambling story OF her experience.
From what could be learned. she Is a
salesgirl in the employ of Hilton,
Hughes e. Co.
At 8 o'clock this morning, as Police
man Henry +. Koran. Of the East
Twenty-second street squad, was pm
trolling his post along First avenue, he
heard woman shrek. Help" "Help!'
"Policev'
The cries rang through the neighbor-
hood and brought many of the residents
to the windows. Koran traced the cries
as coming from the direction OF TWEEN
ty-frst street. Hurrying there, he found
Nellie standing in front of No. 404,
wringing her hands and crying as
tnOuRn neT neart was broken. Her
clothing was torn and soiled, and her
hair was dishevelled.
She said that two men had assaulted
her in the hallway in front of which
she was then standing.
At this moments Mahoney came rushing
out of the house and ran towards Sec
on avenue. On catching sight OF him sne
shouted
Catch him! He is one of my assail-
ants"
Koran gave chase. and drawing his
revolver, as the fugitive reached the
corner of Second avenue and Twenty
second street, cried:
stop, or. I'll send a bullet through
your head!'
Mahoney was taken back to Twenty
first street where Nellie was still shout
ing and crying. She had aroused almost
everybody on the block, and they fiocked
out of the houses and surrounded her.
When the policeman reappeared with
Mahoney in custody the girl positively
identified him as one of the men who
had assaulted her.
Both were then taken to the station.
Mahoney was recognized by the police
as a tough and burglar. He has been
frequently arrested. On her charge of
assault he was locked up. She was de
tanned for the night by the matron.
All night long she sobbed, but when
taken to court she seemed to brighten
up and laughed in a hysterical manner.
Mahoney denied knowing anything of
the girl. Justice Taintor committed the
prisoner to enable the police to have
the girl examined.

We strolled across the grass where the
yew-trees cast strange black shadows
over the mounds and tombstones. and up
the aisle TO the chapel. where, behind a
carved oak screen, and under their. can
opies Of marble. lay the effigies OF two
knights and a lady. The moonlight
poured down on them in all the splendor
OF cloudless night in June. and the
pickering shadow of a branch outside
played weirdly over the face OF one gi-
gantic figure carved in full armor.
