MOHL LET THE MAN ESCAPE
Policeman Refused to Leave His
Beat TO Pursue a Villain.
WOMEN HAD BEEN INsULTED
Unknown Man Pretending to BE Deaf
and Dumb Gained Entrance TO Sew
eraI Houses and Attempted to EN-
brace Defenceless women-He Es-
capped Under the Officers Nose.

An audacious rascal, who pretends to be
deaf and dumb, but who nevertheless can
emit volley of vile oths, attempted yes
terday to commit assaults upon number
of South Washington women. He was pre-
vented from doing more than insulting his
victims in every instance by the shrieks
OF the affnghted women, and would have
beeucaptured had not P Policeman John Mohl,
be of 'schmelled schmoke' fame, re-
fused to leave his beat in pursuit of the
man, who had boarded horse car.
The first TO encounter the unknown mis-
creaut was Mrs. James Franklin, of No.
472 / street southwest, who was alone at
home at the time The man presented a
card which stated that he was deaf and
dumb, aud worthy object of charity.
While Mrs. Franklin was reading the
paper, and without any suspicion of the
mans Intentions, he seized her by the arm,
and attempted to embrace her.
Mrs Franklin was fearfully alarmed by
the suddenness of the attack and for mo-
ment could not find her voice, but strug-
gled desperately 10 release herself from
the clutches OF the fellow, who also iu-
suited her with his words.
Mrs Franklin finally broke into a series
of shrieks which caused her assailant To
release his hold, and, hearing the approach
of Mr.. William Leimbach, who keeps a
grocery store in the neighborhood, the deaf
and dumb man snatched the card out of
her hand and cursing her roundly, ran down
the street Mrs. Franklin was prostrated
for some time afterward by the shock.
Not bit daunted by his experience, the
fellow next went to the house of Mrs. Will
lam Getschoff, who lives at No 460 l
street Here he repeated his former actions
which caused Mrs. Getschoff to raise an
alarm, 20 which Mr. Leimbach again re-
sponded.
The assailant again fled, pursued by Mr.
Leimbach. running up / street TO Seventh,
where he boarded car bound uptown.
Policeman John Mohl saw the pursuer
and the pursued, but made no effort to
capture the fellow. He stated last night
that he desisted from his efforts to appre-
bend the man because when the latter
got on the car he was out of the police
mans beat.
II was learned also last night that the
rascal had previously called at other
houses in the neighborhood, where he had
pursued the same tactics, and one woman
has been made violently i'll. All the
women of that section are on the qui vive
and some have armed themselves with
weapons 10 use upon the villain.

precisely the reason given last week. For
most other kinds Of wool than the above
named the market is rather quiet, the
trade In them being slower than was ex-
pected. Users of such are waiting
for fall trade to open, the tendency
OF prices having been downward
SO long they are not anxious to buy wool
faster than needed; these are only buying
to piece out. Rates, on the whole, are
easier than a fortnight ago. Insiders can
perceive nothing in the situation at home
or abroad, that warrants the expectation
of any better prices in the near future.

FOUND DEAD,


Yesterday morning Cyrus q. Armstrong
left home happy and apparently we'll
man. About noon today his lifeless
body was carried out of the Arlington
Hotel Mt 63 Union street. The cause OF
his death Is as yet mystery.
All that is known Is that some
time between and 10 o'clock
yesterday morning he called
rest In, a. he felt sick. The clerk
assigned him to room 20, which Is
directly over the apartments OF
Mrs. Bradley, the proprietess OF the
hotel. He remained in his room all day
and night and nothing suspicious was
heard until some time during
the night guest on the- same floor heard
him groaning, but SAID nothing about 1t.
Between and 4 o'clock a. m. Mrs. Bradley
heard him walking the floor, but he soon
after bscame quiet and apparently went
to bed.
AT 11:25 o'clock this forenoon
one of the chamb mbermaids reported to the
clerk that she could not get into room 20
and the Nclerk called a porter and
went up stairs to investigate. Entrance
was made by door opening from an ad-
joining room and the spectators were
startled to see the corpse stretched upon
the bed, as II prepared for sleep.
Word was at once sent to police head
quarters, and Medical Examiner O'Keefe
summoned, In the absence of Dr. Palmer.
The medical examiner made
a hasty examination and ordered
the remains turned over to
Undertakers Whiting & Barber, with the
instruction not to embalm the body, but
otherwise prepare it for burial, and an
autopsy will be performed later on.
Captain Stevens and Detective Swan
went to the hotel and examined all who
were acquainted with the facts.
In Mr.. Armstrong; pockets were about
50 in cash.
Neither the police nor the inmates of
the hotel will state whether there were
any indications of suicide or not, pre-
ferring to await the physicians decision.
The police say, however, that Mr.. Arm
strong left home after cheerful inter-
view with his wife and an affectionatc
leaye-taking and may have boarded
Broadway car, as on Monday
morning, and was taken sick again and
went to the Arlington as the nearest place
OF public resort where he could rest There
is no explanation offered, however, of his
utterly neglecting to call for medicine
or assistance, or to send q messenger to
his home.
President Massie of the bank said today
that sometime ago Mr.. Armstrong
had the grip severely and has never been
himself since.
His death will be sorely felt by oil who
knew him.

Herreshoff's Racer Will Be
of That Metal.
II will Probably Be Keel Yacht oi
New Design
George s1onld willing to Contribute
Half the Funds Necessary.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-The question OF a
defender for the Americas cup was wide
ly discussed by yachtsmen today, but all
professed ignorance OF any syndicate hav-
ing been formed yet to build new yacht.
1t Is believed that boat will be built by
Herreshof, and that syndicate will un-
doubtedly be formed within few days, but
its construction is at present not made
public. A prominent yachtsman who has
been interested In several races said today
that he had been told on the best OF
authority that Herreshoff will build q
boat entirely of Tobin bronze and that
his experience in big boats had led him to
believe that a keel-boat was the best
where 90-feet single-stickers were con-
cerned. In fact, Mr.. Herreshohs
plan for the boat, which was
TO be built when the money was forth
coming, would be to have no center
board. 1t is known that George Gould
has expressed his willingness to subscribe
one half of the money necessary to build.
and those who are looked upon as
likely to join him are August
Belmont, Commodore Brown and
j. Roger Maxwell. There is an
opinion among some designers that MIR
Dixon of Cramps, who has leased the
shipyards at Elizabethport, is likely to
build boat, and as be has already pub
liciy denounced the center board he would
build keel yacht.

PROVIDENCE OPERA HOUSE.
Miss Nethersole's Accomplished Inn
personation of Frou-Frou.

The distinct impression made by the
young and gifted actress, Miss Olga
Nethersole, I'm "Camille," was accentuated
in the Providence Opera House last even
ing when she was seen in the character OF
Frou-Frou. 1t was totally different
impers onation and illustrated forcibly the
versatility of the talented little actress.
The friends she made by her powerful
opening performance were perhaps trifie
afraid that there would be falling of
from high place in the presentation Of
a second character. but there existed no
real reason for fear.
Miss Nethersole is not perfect, far from
IT.; but her talent is of the right sort and
her method Is so sensible and her way so
natural that students Of the drama
recognize dramatic jewel OF
the first water. There Is no
gainsaying the fact that Miss Nethersole
can play any part in the whole catalogue of
emotional plays with as true dramatic ring
and as deep appreciation OF big possibia-
ties rs any player before the public.
Her strength lies essentially In emo
tional acting. Therefore 1t was small
wonder that she swayed tho intelligent
audience last evening by her intense
and concentrated work. She was SO
much in earnest, so true to
her art, SO forgetful Of all surroundings,
so dominated by the character of the silly
girl, frivolous inother, deserted mistress
and dishonored wife that the onlookers
were forgetful OF theatrical trimmings,
forgetful of everything save the misery
so naturally and vividly portrayed.
Miss Nethersole triumphed over every
mind and made the mimicked scene q
reality, powerful picture OF real life.
Thoug ghtlessness, pique, disappointment,
rashness, misery and despair were painted
masterfuliy. Then came a remarkable
death, where .orgivness made the poor
heart glad and completed characteriz-
alton that has rarely been equaled.
The support accorded the star has not
been surpassed in this city. This evening
NJ iss Nethersole will play Juliet.
