Miss Taylor's Boarding House
Stripped Of Everything To-Day.
Constable Sykes's Second Raid
Proved n Big Success.

Constable Luke Sykes, Of West New
Brighton. s. l., levied to-day on the re-
maindcr OF the furniture In the hand
some old Cunard mansion, on GrymcH
Ilill, to satisfy a judgment In favor Of
James +. McManus against Miss Chris
tine a. Taylor.
Had Miss Taylor returned to Staten
Island to-day she would have been en-
Enthusiastically received by the business
community there. Miss Taylor Is about
thirty-hve years old, handsome and has
winning manners She appeared Oh
Staten Island nearly four years ago as
housekeeper for the Rev. DIR. A. q. Nor
timer, of st. Mary's Church. In that ca
pacity she made many friends. Or.
Mortimer furnished her with sufficient
capital to open the Henderson house, on
Bard avenue, as fashionable boarding
house, In the Winter she conducted an
establishment on West Forty-sevent h
This season Miss Taylor branched out.
She leased from Erastus Wiman the old
cunard mansion. Several OF her old
boarders remained with her. But she
disappes red one night and Is now said
10 be at kosedale. Md.
Luke Sykes served an attachment on
the furniture week ago, but the pres
claimed they owned everything.
MIR Sykes left a man in charge, but
he was run out one night after being
subjected to many indignities and as u
result he caused the arrest of A. r.
Nreeland, l.. H. Stoutsbury and James
Kerr for assault. the case came up be-
fore Justice Langton to-day ana was
continued for a week.
Sykes made second visit to the old
manor and secured some Of the property,
and was arrested for oppression, on
which charge he was afterwards hon.
orably discharged. Although Miss Tay-
lor has lett, owing the butcher baker,
iceman, miikman and many others, a
great deal of sympathy Is expressed for
ner on the island.
1t Is held that she was influenced by
some of the boarders, who led her to be-
lieve that costly lawn fetes and other en-
tertainments were the proper things.
The season was gay one while II lasted,
and many failed to pay their board. 1t
Is said.
When Miss Taylor disappeared some Of
the boarders ran the house on the COM
monwealth plan. They were sad when
the remainder OF the furniture was re-
moved to-day. The business people on
the island feel quite bitter towards the
present occupants of the Manor, whom
they blame for much of Miss Taylor's
troubles.

Completely I'm IL.

q. II. Collins, who is employed in the
electrical department of the Atlantic
Avenue Railroad Company, called at
the Coroners office, IN Brooklyn. this
morning and charged that somebody had
stolen SIG from his deceased friend, John
Willie, who lost his life ON Wednesday
while at work repairing the company's
trolley wires at Ninth avenue and Third
street incidentally, he told story
which seems to call for strict investi-
cation.
Willie, who was thirty years old, was
employed as an emergency lineman, and
lived in the railroad depot at Third and
Atlantic avenues.
on Wednesday afternoon Collins told
Deputy Coroner Deegan that he and
Willie were paid their salary that day.
Willie only had five cents in his pocket.
Immediately after getting their pay
they went to Ninth avenue and Third
street to make some repairs. Willie had
!, shock from the trolley wire which
knocked MIN. over and ne fell head
foremost TO the ground.
Another man, named Sheehan, stood
near by. Sheehan stood guard while
Collins ran for a policeman. He found
an officer half block distant, told him
to call an ambulance and returned to
his friends side.
He was not absent more than three
| minutes, he says An ambulance ar
| rived shortly afterward and removed
the injured man to the Seney Hospital,
| where he died that night.
Collins notified the dead mans
mother who lives in Toronto Canada,
of the tragedy, and received a reply that
she would bury the remains II they
were sent to her. but that she had no
money TO pay the expenses OF forward
| Ing them.
Collins, knowing that Willie had just
| been pai~ his salary when the accident
occurred, called at the hospital to get
| ing IA claimant.
'There was only sl.55 in his pockets"
was the reply he received on making
the demand, "anu that has been sent
| to the Coroners Office"
| Collins questioned the attaches of the
| hospital, and they resolutely declared
| that they had only found the sum stated.
| They said that Willie wore a pair of
| blue oVeralls when he reached the In
stitution, and that there were three half
dollars and five-cent piece in one of
the pockets.
mir. Willie never wore overalls since
L have known him." said Collins this
morning. ION the day he was killed he
had on pair of blue striped trousers.
Another discrepancy in the case is that l
saw him paid Off. and I am positive that
he got SIT in bills and only one 5O-cent
piece
Mr.. Collins said that unless the miss
ing money could be found Wilie's body
would be inferred In the city cemetery.
Deputy Coroner Deegan promised to
| investigate the matter.
