New York Riot.

NEW YORK, July ia riot which
required the services of three police
precincts to suppress broke out last
night In the negro quarter in West
62nd street The trouble was precip-
itated by the attempt of Policeman
Connor to arrest William Johnson, the
leader of gang of negroes who we're
making disturbance in the streets.
The policeman secured his prisoner
after a sharp fight and was dragging
him to the station house when he was
assailed by mob, and volleys of
bricks and rocks were hurled at him
from the roofs of adjoining tenements.
Conner opened fire on a negro on a
roof and the shots were returned from
windows of the house. Reserves ar
rived and soon cleared the street.

to take the UNHAPPY woman's life and
it afforded him ready made grave
in which to bury his victim. Miss
Holland was seen alive for the last
time on May 10, 1899 Not only was
she not seen again, but no trace of
Of her was discovered until four years
afterwards. when the remains Of a wo-
man were found in the Moat Farm
ditch. II is one Of the remarkable
features of the case that during all
these years Dougal had been able TO
act as her double in forging her sigma
rtue to checks and carrying on cor
respondence with her bankers and
brokers. To the few inquiries made
Dougal explained that Miss Holland
had gone to the continent Later he
brought his real wife to the Moat
Farm, introducing her at first as his
widowed daughter. Divorce proceed
ings against Douglas real wife, inter-
rupted. after decree nisi had been
granted, by an affiliation order obtain
ed by village girl against him, first
directed the attention of the police to
the continued absence of Miss Hol-
land.
Dougal was first arrested on
charge of forging Miss Hollands
name. Meanwhile the police were at
work endeavoring to solve the mys-
terry of her disappearance and in
their perseverance in their search for
teh body they won general praise
They succeeded in linking together a
chain of circumstantial evidence
which could not be broken by the best
efforts of the counsel for the defence
and which connected Dougal with the
authorityship of the crime as securely
as anything short of the direct evi-
dence of eyewitnesses of the tragedy
could have effected.
