CAUGHT BY A TROLLEY.
Thief Flees in the Sled He Stole
But Is Finally Taken.

A horse and sleigh were stolen Thurs
day from in front of Or. Clausen's house,
at No. 40 Hudson street, Hoboken. The
thief drove rapidly away, but he made
too short turn at Ferry and Henderson
streets, and the sleigh was upset. The
man got away, but was recognized as
james McMahon, forty-two years old, Of
Pavonia avenue, Jersey City.
The Hoboken police We're called up
yesterday afternoon ON the telephone by
some one at the Empire Theatre who
said the horse and sleigh of Henry L.
Schmidt president of hte Board of Wa
ter Commissioners, had been stolen from
in front of the theatre.
Just as the message was received a
policeman looking out of window saw
McMahon driving past headquarters,
which is ON Newark street. 1t was at
once surmised that McMahon had the
stolen rig and Detective Weinthal start
ed out in pursuit.
A Willow avenue car came along just
as the detective left headuarters, and
he jumped aboard and shouted to the
motorman to go ahead at full speed.
The motorman obeyed and the car shot
ahead, while the fugitive in the sleigh
dashed his horse vigorously anu urged it
on at top speed. When the car
switched off Willow avenue the horse
was still in the lead, and Weinthal
jumped from the car and continued the
chase on foot.
The fugitive was finally caught by
policeman of the Second Precinct in
Jersey City, telephone message having
been sent to headquarters in that city
saying that horse thief was fleeing in
that direction.
McMahon was brought to a halt on
Henderson street, and about three or
four minutes later Weinthal appeared,
pretty well tagged out after his run, and
claimed the prisoner.

CHARGED WITH
BICAMY
Florist Henry J. Winfield
Arrested at the Insti-
cation Of His Wife
Jennie.
SHE HAD OBTAISED 4 DIVORCE
But Winfield Without Watt
ing for an Interlocutory
Decree Had Married
Again.

A warrant was issued from the First
Criminal Court last night for the arrest
of Florist Henry J. w. Winfield, of No.
375 Grove street, on charge of bigamy
preferred by Jennie Winfield, of No. 134
Hunter avenue, Long Island City. Mrs.
Winfield No. /, and Mr.. Winfield, ac-
cording to her account, were married
about twenty years ago. He was then
but twenty years old and she but nine
teen. The young couple eloped. He
went into the florist business.
According to his story, told after the
arrest last night, they quarreled soon
after their marriage and she went back
to her parents home Some time ago
she began suit for divorce in Brooklyn
on statutory grounds. The interlocutory
decree was granted in December last,
but the final decree in the New York
courts cannot be granted until three
months later.
Meanwhile he was to pay her alimony
and recently failed to make the regular
payments.
Instead of waiting for the three
months to elapse after the granting Of
the interlocutory decree, Winfield came
over to this city and married Marie
Schmidt, of No. 375 Grove street, on
January 3, last. 1t appears it was about
that time he bagan to fail to pay his
first wife's alimony. Mr.. Winfield and
wife No. 2 were married by the Rev.
Mr. Ruth, of St. PauPs N. e. Church
in Third street He told the Rev, Ruth,
in response to questions, that he had
been married, but was divorced from his
first wife.
Mr.. Winfield is in contempt of the
Brooklyn court from which his wife Sc
cured the interloeutory derrea of divorce.
He said last night that he had done
everything in his power to pay the ali
mony fixed by the court.
The case against Winufeld was laid
over this morning until next Wednesday
for hearing. Winfield under $500 bail.
