Thousands Hurled Epithets at Him

New York, Oct. 2.-Frederick E. Carl
ton, thrice convicted of bigamy in
Brooklyn, was today sentenced to 19
years in Sing Sing by Judge Aspinall,
in the county court, Brooklyn, who
scored the prisoner severely. While
Carlton was being taken from the
court to the Grand Central station he
was surrounded by a mob, which
hurled imprecations at him and tried
to do him bodily harm.
After leaving the court, Carlton,
walking erect and displaying the nerve
which has stood him in good stead
throughout his rapid trials, was escort
ed, maracled to another prisoner and
between two deputy sheriffs, to the
street. At quick pace they turned
into Court street, and, passing around
the Borough Hall, cross the square to
Fulton street, where, in front Of the
old Park Theater, the little group
awaited New York bound trolley car.
A crowd which had followed them
from the court increased in numbers
until nearly thousand persons hedged
in the prisoners and their guards. They
shouted at Carlton, and many we're the
oaths and imprecations hurled at him.
One, more daring than the rest,
sprang at the prisoner and struck at
him. A deputy sheriff rushed at the
man, and with a we'll directed blow
felled him. The officers succeeded in
getting Carlton aboard a street car
without further trouble, and he was
taken to the New York Central depot,
where train for Sing Sing was board
ed
Before sentence was passed John s.
Bennett, Cartons attorney, pleaded for
leniency on the ground that the pris-
oner had been, within one week, hur-
ried through four trials, three under
the charge of bigamy and one under
that of grand larceny, something un-
heard of in the history of crime" as
the lawyer expressed 1t. His certain
death from the bronchial ailment II a
severe penalty was meted out to him,
was also advanced by Mr.. Bennett as O
reason for light sentence.
AuIuplly lSIlulHdtlue tue pled OI
Cartons counsel, Judge Aspinall said:
IF had my way, I'd send you to the
electric chair. hold you in the utmost
contempt. Any man that will play on
the love of woman and will cast her
aside as you did will get no considera-
tion from me.
"You married a girl, and she died.
Then you married another girl, and she
died. In less than two months from
the death Of these two wives you got
5000. That is what call trafiicking
in women. Such a man / have no use
for. You are scoundrel and thief
1t will be very good thing for the
state If you do die.
Women are frail, but we cannot lose
sight of the fact that they have rocked
the cradles of presidents and emperors.
You have triieG with them and cast
them aside. Now, Carlton, you can go
to Sing Sing and die. Listen to your
sentance"

KANSAS CITY IS SORE.
Protests Being Made at Removal of

Kansas City, March 17.-There was a ru-
NOR yesterday that the Manufacturers

according to an order received here a few
days ago It was not stated at the time

before the offices were brought to KAN
saS City At present the local Offices have
jurisdiction over the Missouri lines of the
system while the superintendent office
at Chicago has Jurisdiction over a direct
line from Chicago to Denver. 1t has been
round that Denver is too far from Chicago
Tor this district to be handled successfully
and a change is expected.
In all probability Mr.. Crockett. after his
offices have been removed to Topeka, will
be given control of all the lines west of
the Missouri river, while the Missouri dis
Chicago office. Another reason advanc-
ed for the change is the fact that the
Rock Island handles good traffic from
chicago to the southwest, which is routed
of st. Joseph, instead of by Kansas City,
with a tonnage to be paid other lines.
With the general superintendent office in
Kansas City he is not in touch at all with
this southwest traffic, while, if his Of
fees are moved to Topeka he will be in
position to handle it with ease.
superintendent Crockett has been in the
southwest for several days and has not
been asked regarding the change, but at

SELLS UNION PACIFIC HEAVILY
Strong Financial Rurnor That Gould
viii Succeed Hartman in Control

Will Succeed Hartman in Control.
Chicago, March 17.-Railroad men and
fnanciers here have received what they
consider almost authoritative state
ments that George Gould has forced Mr..
Hartman out of the Union Pacific. 1t
is believed that Mr.. Hartman is out
of the stock and that his selling has
been done in anticipation of his retire
ment from the position of controlling
factor in the Union Pacific and other
Kuhn-Loeb-R Rockefeller properties. Mr..
Hartman has had several serious tits
with his associates in the last few years,
and for a long time in 1902-1903 he was
actually at swords points with George
J. Gould. Men who feel certain Mr..
Hartman is to retire are equally GER
tain that Mr.. Gould will be his success
scr.
Sale street houses here indicate that
sentiment is about equally divided
there Many discredit the rumor that
Mr.. Hartman is to retire, but at the
same time they readily concede that
he has been a very heaving seller of
Union Pacific shares. They argue
however, that his selling of the stock
was more likely undertaken on the
theory that the securities were selling
too high at present, and compare his
course now with a similar operation
conducted by him in 1901. The mar
ket was taken away from him at that
time by the Gates crowd, and the
stock was run up to par. John w.
Gates is said to have accumulated a
personal line of more than 200 shares
of Union Pacific in this deal. Around
10 Mr. Hartman began to buy back
his former holdings. and his pur-
chases ran the price up to probably
100, where an enthusiastic public be
gan crying for large blocks, and this
bidding carried the price up to 1873.
