FORTUNE IN SIGHT, YET pENNILEss
Mrs. Martha Becker Wanders the
Streets OF New York without Food
or Shelter

NEW YORK, Dec. 25-Faint from
hunger and almost frozen by the pierre
ing wind which cut it's way through
her thin clothing, Mrs Martha Becker,
who is on her way to Holland to claim
an estate Of ST 600, applied at Bellevue
hospital tonight for shelter and food.
Without money and having no friends
In this city, the old woman had wan
dered about all day seeking in vain for
some one who would help her on her
way. Then when she felt as though
she could go no further some one d.
rected her to Bellevue and there in the
hospital she found the refuge which
had been denied her elsewhere. Dur
Ing her wanderings about the city the
old woman chung steadily to three old
fashioned carpet bags, for in these were
the papers with which she expects to
prove her right to the fortune which
she says Is awaiting her in Holland.
1t was early in the morning when she
got OFF train on the Erie railroad
and came over the ferry to this city.
she had no money, but that did not
worry her, for at her home in Belfon-
taine, o., her word had always been
good for any supplies she needed, and
In her simple mind she did not see why
her promise to pay should not be as
good in New York as in Ohio.
At the steamship offices where she
asked to be given transportation on her
promise to pay the company as soon as
she received her inheritance she was
turned away as crank. From the Of
fee Of one company she went to an
other, but the reception she received
was invariably the same
Mrs. Becker is sixty three years old
now, and today is the first Christmas
she has ever spent away from her rela-
tives or friends. But she is anxious to
secure the fortune which she believes is
awaiting her and the dread of a long
ocean voyage in winter or OF being left
penniless among strangers could not
keep her from starting on the long
journey.

Fatal Accident In Chicago Incenses
the Witnesses

CHICAGO, Dec 25.-George F. Den
mark, seven years old, was killed by
trolley car at Throop and Eighteenth
streets this afternoon. Fred Bernier
motorman, was threatened with vio-
lence and was with great difficulty
rescued from crowd of Bohemians
who, incensed at the terrible accident
surrounded the car and dragged Ber-
nier from the platform, determined to
hang him. Patrick Hanley, the con-
ductor, managed to save Bernder from
the mob, and then a riot call was sent
to- the Maxwell street station. The
police took charge of the motorman
and conductor and locked them up.
After the boy had been killed, Motorman
Bernier took refuge in the car which stood
still within few feet OF where the boy was
killed, and in an instant 1t was besieged by
angry men. He attempted to keep them out
by latchfng the doors on the inside but they
broke the door In and knocked him down
and kicked and beat him for few minutes
In a shocking manner. He managed, how
ever, to get away from them and ran to the
door Of the drug store, where he also was
handed a pistol and was admitted inside by
Mr.. Kvitek. proprietor, before any further
harm befell him. The crowd surged around
the door, yelling:
Break it in. Kill him. XIII him."
1t looked for a minute as II the store
would be raided, but Mr.. Kvitek brought out
Winchester rife, and. pointing 1t at the
uOOI, threatened that Lll0 HTSC man. VINO ell
tered would drop dead. The crowd believed
what he said and fell back.
In the meantime Mr.. Kvitek had also used
his telephone. He called on the Maxwell sta
tion first for an ambulance, but by that time
matters had gotten so warm that he requested
patrol wagon. In few moments the wagon
brought Policemen Brunsfeld, Murray, Theme,
Duffy, Horwich and Wallace who did all they
could to quiet the mob.
When some degree Of quiet had been re-
stored the police arrested the endangered men
and took them to the station. There the men
seemed unconcerned and declined to make q
statement.
There were many versions given Of the ac-
cident Well informed people living in the
neighborhood said they had been expecting
something of the kind for long time and
sooner.
