A VICTIM OF SWINDLERS.
A New York Manufactures Robbed
by Confidence Gang.

by n Confidence Gang.
NEW YORK. March 16.-Franz Mayer,
who two years ago was the president of a
! prosperous sign manufacturing company,
told in the Essex Market Police Court yes
tcrday how he had been defrauded of
property Of the value of 500, ,000. practi-
caliy all he had. by the notorious Ellen
Peck, the confidence queen" and a gang
OF swindlers associated with her. Mayer
appeared in court TO prosecute Hugh Ma
son and George ". Van Zandt, who. he al
leges. were members of the gang.
Mayer is about fifty years old. He is
prominent in German circles. and was for
years the manufacturer of signs for brew
cries and had almost a monopoly of the
business. When the Spanish war broke
out he organized the First Regiment of
Volunteers and was elected colonel. Ex
pecting to be sent to the front, he ar
ranged TO wind up his business by organiz-
ing a stock company. which he called the
Franz Meyer Sign and Material Manu-
featuring company, capitalized for $780,
Gee. All CT the stock. which was valued at
par. was held by Mayer and his wife.
Mayer said that when the company was
formed his confidential clerk introduced
him TO Mason and Van Zandt, who posed
as representatives of an English syndi
cate. He transferred to them s., 600 worth
of the stock. for the deeds to 10000 acres
OF coal and timber lands in Ken
lucky. Afterward he was intro
duced to woman known as Jes-
sic B. Seal, who got 81, COO worth Of the
stock in exchange for mortgages on prop
erty in Atlantic City. Some time after
ward the others introduced him to Mrs.
Ellen Peck. and she got $i5. 600 worth of
the stock, giving him in payment deeds to
5,000 acres Of grazing land in Texas.
Mayer had no doubt as to the value
of the securities until the holders of the
stock he had parted with ousted him from
the management OF the business. This was
followed up by the sale of the property by
the sheriff TO satisfy claim brought by
one of the stockholders The concern was
then reorganized. and the shares still held
by Mayer rendered useless. He consulted
his counsel. J. II. Winans, who, with the
aid of the district attorney, found that the
deeds and mortgages which Mayer had
received were fictitious. Mason and Van
Zandt were then arrested. and yesterday
were held in s100, 600 bail each for exam
ination.
Mrs. Peck is in the Tombs under a SEN
tence of five years for swindlng. Only
a few days ago another swindle. in which
a Southern farmer was the victim, was
traced TO her. Several other arrests in the
Mayer case are expected.

The FIRST information as TO what occurred
in the house of Olof Pallessen just previous
TO the killing of his wife and neighbor' 5
child Wednesday was given this morning
in a statement by Mrs. Mary Heugesbach,
who is now at the Columbia Hospital. SUI
fering from the knife wounds inflicted by
Pallessen
This statement was made TO doctor OF
the hospital for Times reporter. and it
cowoborates the suppositicn that Pailessen
was feared by his wife for some time be
fore he killed her, and that she feared
she would be compelled to ask protection.
From the statement it VIII be seen that
the stabbiGg took place just after dis
cussion of Pallessen's despOndency and
peculiar actions Following is the state
ment of Mrs. Hengesbach in detail:
Our families had known each other for
some time and the best of friendship had
prevailed.
Il went to the Pallessen home Wednes-
day to try on some clothes that Mrs. Pal
lessen had been making for me. l took
with me my little daughter, Julia.
Mrs Pallessen and myself were sitting
in the paTlor while Mr.. Pal3eSsen remained
an the kitchen.
He had been out OF work and We. Mrs.
Pallessen and myself were commenting
upon her husbands dependency. Mrs.
pallessen said that her husband was so
affected by his idleness that be had been
acting in an unusual manner and she was
of the opinion that if his demeanor did
not change it would be necessary to place
him under restraint | do not think he
could have heard what his wife said.
Very soon afterward. perhaps two min
utes. Pallessen came into the parlor and
some remark was made by his vile as TO
his being depressed. Then Pallessen walk
ed over to his wife and struck her tWiee
with his fist ! think on the mouth and
neck.
"'Where is the knife he asked, turning
and walking toward the kitchen.
Il picked up my child and ran from the
house, at the same time begging Mrs,
Pallessen to come also. She followed me
10 the steps, but her husband appeared
from the direction of the kitchen with
the knife, and grappled with her. She
fell down the steps, either being knocked
or pushed by Mr.. Pallessen.
He followed her to the pavement with
the knife still in his hand and then I don't
know exactly what took place fer l rushed
with my child toward the corner. After
killing his wife Mr.. Pallessen ran after
me"
From this point in the tragedy Mrs.
Hengesbach has no collected recollection
except that she and her child were stabbed.
Mrs. Hagensbach said this morning that
she could not understand FalleSsen's ac-
tion Tor she had always known him to be a
sober ana industrious man.
Mrs Hengesbach is improving under the
care Of the hospital nurses and it is prob
able that she viii recover.
