MISS LEONARD WEEDS
MAN OF Her CHOICE.
Her Father, Millionaire Iron Manufacturer,
Objected to Vosburg Horizons Relig-
ion and Poverty Young Man Turns
Catholic -Priest Vainly Interceded

New York, Nov. SO.-Father Henry
Van Rensselaer, himself a convert to
Roman Catholicism, yesterday married
Miss Marie Leonard and Vosburg Hor
ton at the Church of st. Frances Xa-
vier. West sixteenth street, this city.
Mrs. Horton is twenty three years
old. the eldest daughter of John Leon
ard. the millionaire iron manufacturer,
who has fine residence at Montclair,
az 0ffice in the st. Paul building on
Broadway, and an iron mill on Avenue
A.
Mr.. Horton, who wins so charming a
bride, is in the wooden business on
Leonard street, this city. He is not
rich. Besides, Mr. Leonard was OPP
posed to his daughters marriage to him
because Mr.. Horton was brought up a
Baptist. The young man, very much
in love, did all he could to remove this
objection touching religion, and doubt
less he will grow rich as fast as he
can.
He has been receiving instructions
from Father Van Rensselaer, in the doc
trines of the Roman Catholic church,
and having proved his sincerity ana re-
ligious enthusiasm, he has been pap
tized into the church. By that step, II
is reported, Mr.. Horton offended his
relatives. who were as earnestly OPP

were allowed greater liberty, but the
report that Lieut.. Gilmore was given
a house and a servant is untrue He
had the same quarters as the men, and
the Americans were given the same al
lowance as the Spanish prisoners-five
cents a day, with which to buy rice
and bananas, virtually the only ra-
tions.
Gen. Macarthur is now in Bayam-
bang Cor Dayamban), preparing to
sweep the country on both sides of the
acknowledgement railway. Gen. Whea-
ton is at San Fabian, and Gen. Law
ton at Tayug. The Gordon from San
Fabian to San Isidro covers all the
roads and occupies all the towns on the
line. The American policy is to pre-
vent any more insurgents escaping to
the north, and to force them toward
the country west of the railroad.
Major March, with a battalion of
the Thirty-third infantry, occupies vi
gan, having made a forced march from
San Fabian. The remainder of the
regiment is on the way. Gen. Young,
with handful of cavalry and the Mac
abebes, is in .Vigan, and Lieut. Col
Howe, with four decimated companies
of the Thirty infantry, bare
footed and tagged, is struggling toward
Nigan from Aliga (Aliaga?) When last
reported, he was within so miles of his
destination. There are 5000 Spanish
prisoners in Abra province, whose re-
lease through the military operations
is expected soon.
1t is learned that Aguinaldo had
large amount of stores at Boyambong,
province of Nuerta Viscaya, which Gen.
Lawton's troops have probably cap
tured. The steamer Francisco Reyes
has taken cargo of supplies to Dag
upan, where a base will be established
Hospitals have been equipped at San
Isidro Cabanatuan and Tayug. Many
of the American troops are suffering
from the exhaustion, fever or dysen-
terry, and are in need of hospital treat
ment.
Capt. Fowler's march after Gen. Ale
jandrino's brigade, with one company
OF the Thtrtythird infantry was one
of the bravest incidents of the war.
The company left Dagupan alone, I'M
der orders to locate the enemy. Capt.
Fowler had been warned by the natives
that he and his men would be EXTERN
mated. The guides deserted them be-
fore ManGatarom Cor Mangalaron) was
reached. All Alejandrino's artillery was
focused upon the main street, along
which the Americans advanced. The
guns were manned by Spaniards, who
said afterwards that they had fired
over the heads of the Americans, as
they desired that the latter should ad-
vance, hoping thus to gain their own
freedom

Wisconsin Eleven Helps Defeat
University of Michigan Team.

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 3O.-The Uni
versity of Pennsylvania foot ball team
the Cornell eleven here today by a
score of 20 to 0.
Pennsylvania followers expected
their team would win, but not by SO
decisive a score. Cornell was la
mentally weak, especially in the line
Only twice during the game did the
Ithacan's stop the Quakers' fierce
rushes. When Cornell had possession
of the ball she showed up just as weak
in advancing it, as she did in trying
to prevent Pennsylvania from carrying
it forward
The Comedians did not earn first
down, their few attempts at end skirt
ing being nipped by the Quakers' ends.
Cornell's attack on the Pennsylvania
line was also very weak. The Penn
sylvania team played a superb game.
The plays were gotten off rapidly and
smoothly, and Pennsylvania was sell
dom downed without gains. The men
worked as a unit, and on the defense
the teom was u stedc watt
The Quakers gave q fine exhibition
Of line bucking and plunging. Wher-
ever they attacked the Cornell line, they
made big holes in it and broke through
for five, 10 and Is yards at time. The
Quakers terrific rushes told on the
Cornell men, and the game was consid-
erably delayed by players being in
jured. Three of Cornell's men were
forced to leave the game, while Penn
sy1vania was intact throughout the con-
test.
Alexander was stone wall in Cor
nelfs line, but his colleagues were not
equal to the task set by Pennsylvania.
In the kicking line, Pennsylvania had
a little the better of it. Both teams
suffered equally from fumbles, of
which there were. not many Fully
$4,000 persons saw the contest. The
day was beautiful one but a trifle

cRARLEs E. LoNGLEY DEAD

Charles e. Longley. who for more than
score of years has been prominently
identified with the clothing trade of New
England and New York city, died at his
residence, No. 81 Walcott street, Paw
tucket, at late hour Wednesday after
noon.
About 20 years ago he opened a retail
clothing house in Pawtucket under the
name of the Boston and Providence Cloth
ing Company. The venture was at once
attended by success and the concern soon
had branch stores established in various
places in New England, Pawtucket,
Woonsocl1et. Fall River, Worcester, Mass,
and New Haven and Hartford, Conn.,,
being among the number.
Not withstanding his strict attention to
business, he never lost sight of the ques-
tions of the day, nor interest in church
and state affairs. He early affiliated with
the republican party and upon several
occasions the leaders endeavored TO per-
suade him to become candidate for Of
flee, but he had no desire to become a
public official and always declined. AT
one time he was prominently mentioned
as candidate for governor of the state,
but he absolutely refused to give the
proposition consideration and this alone
probably was the only thing which pre-
vented his name from heading the ticket.

posed to his marriage to Miss Leonard
as was her father.
SHE ASKED PRIESTS AID.
Mrs. Horton was educated at con-
vent in Flushing, L. 1. She and her
husband have been lovers more than a
year. Recognizing her fathers deter
mined opposition to her marriage, Miss
Leonard appealed to Father Joseph
Mendl. Mr.. Leonards pastor, at Mont
clair, to intercede for her with her
father. The priest consented.
He shall not marry her" said Mr..
Leonard determinedly. He is poor,
He cannot support her in the style to

tingent of Cornell rooters made great
deal of noise.
Pennsylvania made two touchdowns
in the first half. The first score was
made six minutes after the kickoff,
Potter breaking through CornelPs line
and running So yards for the touch
down The second touchdown was
made by straight line plunging from

Janitor Assaults En-
ployer and House
keeper With Axe.
DEMANDED THE BANK BOOKS.
When Refused He Became
Furious and Committed
Fatal Assault.

Boston, Nov. 30.-Emma r. Samaine, a
housekeeper, and John Barnard, her
employer, were seriously wounded with
an axe, which the police claim was
welded by Charles G. West, the janitor
of the Barnard block in the Roxbury
district this forenoon. Mr.. Barnard,
who is 79 years old, will probably die
The assault was called to the atten-
ton of an officer who was told that the
janitor of the block had gone down the
street. The officer then overlook West
and conducted him back to the build
ing, where Miss samaine was found I'M
conscious on the floor, with three
wounds on the head. Mr.. Barnard
was semi-conscious in a chair, with
three similar wounds.
Lille Jennings, the family servant,
stated that West, a nephew of Mr..
Barnard, came into the basement and
demanded from Miss Samaine two
bank books. Upon her refusal, he
seized a small, short-handled axe, and
struck the woman over the head several
times
The servant went to Miss Samaine's
assistance, and succeeded in holding
the man until Mr.. Barnard arrived. She
then ran up stairs, screaming for as
sistance, but before help arrived Mr.
Barnard had received several cuts over
the head. Miss Samaine, who is 80
years old, will probably recover. Mr..
Barnard's extre ne. age, and the shock
to his system renders his case very
critical.
West was taken to the police station
and booked as 40 years old He was
very taciturn, and would no. talk of the
affair. He seems to be in a terribly
excited condition, and doubts are ex-
pressed as to his sanity. He viii be ar
raigned tomorrow.

BOUGHT A BLANK CHECK BOOK.
l saw Burroughs after the hearing.
He told me that he had attended Har-
row school, near London He came TO
the United States four years ago but
had been unable to obtain anything to
do in connection with church work. He
returned to England, but came back
here a few months ago. In Boston HI

gallery.
He arrived in New York two months
ago with his wife. who, he says, Ia in
Brooklyn, but who does not know him
under the name of Burroughs. He via
tied the Mills hotel, and there met a
man who suggested that he could make
plenty Of money by passing worthless
checks.
For IS Burroughs bought a blank
check book on the First National bank
of Chelsea, Mass. The man from whom
he bought the book. he said, had sug-
gested the names that were found in
his memorandum book. Burroughs in
sisted that he had not attempted to
obtain money from any one previously
to his visit to the Rev. Mr.. Peters. for
the reason that he could not get his
courage up" before then.
1T can easily be seen that l was not
used to doing that sort of thing by the
way I went about it." he said.

New York, Nov. 30.-As result Of
the caution displayed by the Rev. John
P. Peters, rector of st. Michael's Prot
estant Episcopal church at Ninety
ninth street and Amsterdam avenue,
George S. Burroughs, of No. 2S4 Bridge
street, Brooklyn, is in the West Fifty
fourth street police station, and num-
Der of clergymen and other confiding
persons probably have been saved many
dollars.
Burroughs called on the Rev. Mr..
Peters on Monday and said that he was
an ordained minister of the Protestant
Episcopal church. He presented let
ter purporting to have been written by
the Rev. Mr.. Hutchinson, rector of All
Saints church, in Boston, and adj
dressed to Episcopal clergymen in gem
eral. 1t stated that the bearer had ar
rived from England not long ago, and
that he was in great need.
After telling a story about the hard
ships he had experienced since coming
to New York, a few weeks ago, Bur-
roughs produced a check for So drawn
on the First National bank Of Chelsea,
Mass, bearing Mr., Hutchinson's sig
nature The visitor explained that the
check had been sent to him by Mr.
Hutchinson in payment of some slight
services and begged MI Peters to cash
it.
THIS RECTOR A BUSINESS MAN.
Mr. Peters suspicious had been
aroused, however, but without giving
Burroughs any intimation to that ef-
feet, h. asked him to call again on
Wednesday. After he had gone Mr.
Peters sent a telegram to Mr.. Hutch
inson asking if the check was genuine
The reply was, Check fake; don't
honor it." Mr.. Peters communicated
with the police.

Engineer on Laokawanna Road May
Go Insane.
New York, Nov 30.-Word was re-
ceived this afternoon from a brother
of Alexander Craig who was killed in
the wreck, together with his wife and
daughters, to have the bodies shipped
to New Haven, Conn, for interment.
Arrangements to that effect were made,
the bodies being sent there tonight. OF
those most severely injured in the
wreck, II are in st. Joseph's hospital,
and two in the general hospital at Pa
terson Two of the injured may die.
Holiday crowds visited the scene of
the wreck in large numbers today. En-
gineer Riordan, Conductor ]. Burnett
and the entire crew of the Phlipsburg
train have been suspended indefinitely
by superintendent Russell
An official says: Train No. had
barely stopped before SO ran into the
rear end of No. 6. Snedaker, the flag
man OF No. 6, reports that he dropped
off the train while it was still in mo-
tion and ran back with his lantern. He
says that No. had not stopped more
than As seconds when No Sc ran into
her. According to rule, Snedaker should
have gone back half a mile, but he did
not have time. The engineer disobeyed
his signalsAa and disobeyed the rules OF
the company in not having his train
under control when approaching the
station"
Engineer Riordan of train No SO is
at his home in Harrison, N. j. He is
in a state of complete collapse. No
one is allowed to see him except the
physician and nurse. The doctor in at
tendance said tonight he would not be
surprised if the accident and the strain
which followed it, left Riordan insane.
Riordan has been railroading for over
80 years and claims never before to
have had an accident.

ter Begun.
WHOLE FAMILY WAS KILLED.
Superintendent Charges
His Man With Respon-
sibility.

Paterson, N. j., Nov. 3O.-County Ply
stefan Andrew F. Mcbride today began
an investigation of last nights acct
dent on the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western railroad that resulted in the
killing Of six persons and the injuring,
more or less, of q.
b. &. Russell, general superintendent
OF the Lackawanna road, made the fol-
lowing statement concerning the acct
dent: Train No. Sc overlook train 6 at
Dover and picked up a fagman who
had been sent back by train No. 6. At
Lincoln Park, few miles west of Pa
terson, train Sc again overlook train 6,
and then the fiagman who had been
picked up, was returned to train 6.
This fact shows that those in charge
of train SO were fully cognizant of the
whereabouts of train No. 6. Notwith-
standing this knowledge. they seemed
TO run into Paterson at a careless rate
OF speed and to have run into train 6,
which 1 heard was at the station dis
charging passengers at the time of the
collision.
Under the circumstances, those in
charge of train SO seem to be wholly
culpable. The crew of this train has
been suspended, and it is my intention
TO make a thorough investigation"
