y New York Woman Nearly Victim
lied BY an EX-ConVict.

(
New York, Oct. 2O.-While talking
with a woman. whom, it is said, he
| was scheming to marry. James Harris,
an ex-convict, was arrested on We'd
nesday evening at Twentieth street
and Fourth avenue by Detectives Foye
and Aitken. They thought they knew
his face and, though no direct charge
was laid against him, the story which
the woman afterwsrd told the police
seemed to Justify the arrest. After
watching the couple until they sepa-
rated one of the detectives arrested
Harris while the other followed the
woman and asked about her compan-
ion. She said they both were interest
ed in religious mission work, that they
were just about to attend meeting,
that she was deeply shocked at the
mans arrest. Yesterday morning when
Harris was arraigned, she went to po-
lice headquarters. and said that she
was forty years old and literary. She
was born literary and lonely, it seems,
and So over the signature of Ernest

sonaI column of the New York Herald

the answers she got:

ment in the Herald and will say that

He told. she says, of his money, his

mated that he not only was deeply in
terested in mission work but that he
would like to help the good cause with
financial aid. And she,
though a bit sobered by news from the
mans San Francisco references that
he was unknown there, took $4,000 and
selected her wedding outfit. When
Harris found that she had money of
her own he tried in every way, she
saws to induce her TO remove it from
the bank. Last Monday, by way of in
creasing her confidence. she says, he
promised to show her s., 900 worth of
jewelry which he had deposited in the
Bank of New York. When at the bank,
she says, Harris suddenly gave d start

out of the bank.
