Sarah Ann Angels Claim.

Albany, June 12.-The attempt to prove
that the late Jay Gould married Sarah
Ann Angel in April, 1858, in Clinton
county, and that child was the result Of
the union, is progressing slowly. The
claimant now lives just outside of Rouses
Point, in Clinton county, and is endeay-
oring to secure dover interest in abo ut
81, 000,0 900 of real property in this state
left by Mr.. Gould, which would net her
about $50, 900 annually. Walter e. Ward
of Albany, her attorney, yesterday intro
duced testimony before the referee to
show that Gould was not at work upon
his Albany county map until the fall of
1858. The defendants have offered testi-
mony to show that Gould was at work
here in the spring of that year. Mr.. Ward
is attempting to show that Gould was in
Clinton county, in the vicinity of Rouse
Point during the months of April, May
and June, 1858, and that the marriage of
Gould and Miss Angel occurred in the
month of April. The taking of testimony
will be further continued by the referee

M'ENERY A PRoTEcTIoNIsT.
And He Made the Speech of tho Day In
the Senate.

Washington, June 12.-The sugar sched-
ule was again the subject of Democratic
assaults today in the Senate. Practical
ly no progress was made. Only one
amendment was voted upon and that was
defeated. When the Senate adjourned
the amendment of Mr.. Lindsay of Ken
lucky to strike out the differential on re-
fined sugar was still pending. Mr.. Vest
tried early in the day to prod the Repub-
licans into detailed defence of the sched-
ule but they declined to be challenged.
The most sensational feature of the day
was the speech of Senator McEnery of
Louisiana, who yesterday voted with the
Republicans for the sugar schedule 1t
was his maiden speech in the Senate. He
openly avowed himself protectionist
and as Democrat justified his position
upon the ground that tariff views should
not constitute a test of Democracy. He
moreover defended the Sugar Trust,
whose interests he argued went hand in
hand with the sugar planters. The Re-
publican senators showed much interest
in his remarks. They crowded about and
listened attentively to his two hours
speech. Mr.. McEnery bitterly denounced
the corporation which controlled the new
method of bailing cotton. The interests
OF this company, he declared, were direct
ly opposed to the interests of
the cotton planters. Mr.. Lind
say of Kentucky and Mr.. Caffery
were the other senators who addressed
the Senate at length today. The latter
gave it as his opinion that if beet sugar
industry was built up in this country by
legislation it would collapse as the legis-
lation was withdrawn.

CAPTURED BY A WHEELMAN.
How a Bad Man Was Caught in
PrOvidence1

He Escaped on Wheel ana was Ohaseu
With One-Had Attempted to Assault
aYoung Girl in Harvard, Mass, But
Was Frightened Away.
Providence, R. l., June 12.-At an ear
ly hour this morning the police captured
Perry, the man who is charged with at
tempting to commit felonious assault on
young girl at Harvard, Mass. Perry
was tracked all the way from Harvard by
man on bicycle. The fugitive was
seen in Woonsocket early Saturday after
noon, but as it was not known that he
was the man charged with the Harvard
outrage he was not molested. He evident
" passed directly through Woonsocket
and headed for this city. About an hour
later the pursuer on the bicycle reached
Woonsocket and told his story A de-
scription of Perry was at once telephoned
to the Pawtucket and Providence police
and the night officers at roll call were
warned to look out for him. When Perry
was captured he was headed for Fall
River. Perry has confessed that he COM
mitted the deed.
Tho Assault.
Harvard, Mass, June 12-Ths quiet
community was aroused to an almost I'M
precedented pitch of excitement last
night by an assault upon Estelle Strait
ton, the 15-year-old daughter of well
known citizen, by an unknown tramp.
The tramp got away on woman's BIZ
cycle which he stole in his flight. Miss
StrattOn is a student at the Bromfield
academy and was returning to her home,
which is about two miles and half from
the school.
AS she passed a lonely place in the
road, rough looking man jumped out
of the bushes, armed with trunk strap,
which he threw over the girls head,
pinning her arms to her side and began
dragging her out of the road. The girl
screamed vigorously and succeeded in
making herself heard, and several per-
sons rushed to the scene.
The ruffian fled at the approach of assis-
lance and the girl was left unframed save
for the fright.
News of the affair spread and some one
rushed to the village church and rang an
alarm. The people gathered and as soon
as they learned the details rushed to their
homes and in a few moments parties
armed with guns, revolyers, and clubs
were searching the vicinity.
The men talked of the recent lynching
affairs in the West until they were in a
frenzy and had they found the man they
were looking for they would have handled
him roughly.
But he had seen a woman's wheel
standing in the street as he passed and
Selling it he was able to distance his
pursuers.

New York, June 1.-THE sharp crack
of a revolver startled the worshippers in
Calvary Episcopal church this afternoon.
Right in the vestibule of the church a
woman had ended her life, why no one

hour in close consultation with Assistant
