TRENTON, ian. 16, 1SS7.-The settle
ment of the case of Albert ]. Barnes
against ex-Mayor Frank A. Mcgowan OF
Trenton for alternating his wife's anec-
tions, which was told in yesterdays "Jer-
sey City News" was made for a cash
consideration, said to be only $500. This
| ends another chapter in the nauseating
story which has spread over volumes in
the past year or two. Negotiations for
the settlement of the suit had been pend
ing for three days, when Mcgowan sud
denly left town. He was located at the
Hotel Walton, Philadelphia, and the ne
gotiations were continued byrwire, Attor-
ney Edwin Robert Walking acting for
Magoman and ~ex-Judge Chauncey H.
Beasley for Barnes. The lawyers de-
cline to give any details of the settle
ment. but It is said that yesterday a tele-
gram something like the following came
here from the ex-Mayor and signed
.sMac"4
Ask Barnes what he holds his wife's
affections at I'll talk business osfaes ne ne

Something like this was wired in re-

Would you make 1t SIS 5000 and call the

From Philadelphia to Trenton then
came something like sthis:-
Give him $500 for the whole thing.
If he don't take it. you let him push her
ahead. I'm through.
Barnes is now superintendent of a BIZ

| was in somewhat of a hurry to return
to that city. So. it is said. the deal"
went through and formal entry of the

THE suit of Mr.. Barnes against Mr..

Mr.. Barnes a cash consideration and
Lsothing further is to be done in the mat
Mr.. Beasley said that settlement does
not mean that Barnes and his wife VIII
overlook the past and resume their re-
lations. or that Barnes suit for divorce
from his wife is in any wise affected;
nor does it release Mcgowan from the
responsibility Of figuring as eo,respon-

l 1t was said by close personal friends
Of Mcgowan that he had had an inter

FThis rumor was denied by friends of
Mrs. Mcgowan. in so far as 1T included
remarrying. It was admitted. however,
that the couple had had an interesting
interview in the presence of friends and
the family. Just what will result is, of
course, not known.
