CHEATED OUT OF DOLLAR,
He MURDERS CLERK.
Diary of Ex-soldier Tells of His Inten-
ton to Get Revenge on
James McCaferty.

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-In a pocket diars
found in the effects of Christopher Anss
Richart, the former soldier who early yes
terday shot to death James McCaffertyr
clerk at the Central Hotel, and then I'M
successfully attempted suicide, was
scrawled under yesterdays date the fol-
lowing:
Been lone out of a dollar by a skin
flint.
Have decided to get revenge. and have
Just pawned my watch for a revolver,
loaded, and / am going back to do him
up"
1t was the final entry and will be used
against the writer when he is tried for
murder, for though he shot himself
twice, ne will almost certainly recover.
Yesterday Richart, who a year ago. was
honorably discharged from the United
States army, is alleged to a confessed
that he killed McCafferty for revenge.
He had often stopped at the hotel and last
night applied for lodging. He was given
a seventy-five cent room, but when he
gave the clerk a 50 bill only twenty-five
cents was returned him. He asked for the
other dollar, but 1t was refused, he says.
He was intoxicated and his first impulse
was to thrash the clerk. but he thought
better of it and left the place. For some
time he walked the street brooding over
the wrong done. Then he returned and
again asked for the dollar. When 1t was
refused he again left the hotel, made the
quoted entry In his diary, exchanged his
watch for n revolver and did the shooting.

BLACK HAND AFTER
BISHOP M'QUAlD.
Members Under Oath to Kill Catholic
Prelate, He Tells Vast Crowd
at Rochester.

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, Sept. 23.-The
Rt. Rev. Bernard ]. McQuaid, the rel
cradle bishop Of the Roman Catholic
Diocese of Rochester, made the start
ling declaration yesterday before a vast
crowd gathered to witness he cere-
mony of blessing the graves, that ar
attempt had been made by the Italian
Black Hand Society to extort money
from him, and that he was informed
that four of h gang were under oath
to kill him..
The statement made a tremendous
sensation, as no inkling of the threats
had ever reached the public, although
it was said by Chief of Police Hayden
last night that the matter was first
called to his attention several months
ago. The chief said that he had in
v~estigated the matter, but no trace of
the senders of the threatening letters
had been found.
Bishop McQuaid has been bishop of
the Diocese of Rochester for nearly
forty years.

BARON DIDN'T APPLAUD.
It Was Because Song Sung Was Under
Ban of the Government.

NEW YORK. Sept. 23.-Because
Baron Otto von Hoenning O'Carroll,
consul general of Austria-Hungar in
New York, was mindful of his official
obligations and would not rise when
a certain Hungarian song was sung at
a concert here last night, there was a
general disturbance and the concert
broke up.
The song was sung by Mile, Rethy,
a Hungarian actress. at Terrace Car
den, and the concert la attended by
many persons in the Hungarian col
ony. 1t is called the "Kossuth Song"
and officially it is under the ban of the
Austrian government. Baron O'Carroll
is a native Hungarian, but he repre-
sents the dual empire here. No sooner
had the actress started the song than
the Hungarians jumped up n APP
plauded with fervor.
Baron O'Carroll and some attaches
of his office who were with him did not
do so, which was the signal for a gem
eral demonstration against him and

YOUNG LOVERS LOST
WENT OUT SAILING CLAM
DESTINELY.
Daughter Of New York Broker Was
Only Is and Her Parents Objected
to Young Mans Attentions.

NEW ROCHHELLE, N. Y, Sept. %.
-Searchers were securing the sound
coast from here to Bridgeport on the
east and to City Island on the west
all yesterday for the bodies of Beatrice
Tenton, Is years old, and Guido De An
CELLS, % a old, both of this place,
who are thought to have been drowned
while OFT sailing in a small boat in
Saturdays storm.
They were last seen by the keeper of
he Execution Light just before the
storm broke. He says that the boat
was drifting, all sail having been taken
in.
Miss Tenton left her home at Nep-
tune Park Saturday morning, telling
her mother that she. was going to Echo
Bay to go in bathing. She evidently
changed hen mind, for she was seen to
leave the New Rochelle Rowing Club
in the sixteen-foot knockabout Microbe,
owned and sailed by De Angels.
The two young people spent the day
together cruising up AND down the
sound, and toward 5 o'clock. ~while
about two and a half miles from here,
they evidently decided that 1t was time
to start homeward.
The keeper of the lighthouse tried to
apprise the two of their danger, but his
voice could not be heard above the
wind. The last he saw of them the
boat was being driven with the wind
and tide at a terrific pace. The dark
ness which followed completely shut
them from view.
No alarm was felt at Miss Tenton's
home until toward 6 o'clock, as it was
thoughtsthat she had been stormbound.
Then when no word was received from
her and search at the place where she
said she intended bathing showed that
she had not been there, her father,
Thomas B. Tenton, jr., a stock broker,
of New York, discovered that she had
last been seen with young De Angels.
This was also the belief of other resi-
dents, who had known for some time
that De Angels had been paying atten-
ton to the young girl. That his suit
was not favored by her father was also
common gossip of the village, as only
two weeks ago he had De Angels sum-
moned to court on a charge of having
annoyed his daughter. At that time
the young man frankly admitted that
he was in love with the girl, who, al
though only Is years old, looks fully
two years older. On his promise not to
continue his attentions the case was
dismissed.

ANIMALS AS A GIFT.
United States Government Gets Fifteen
Buhalo from New York.

NEW YORK, Sept 23.-The task of ship
ping to Wichita Kan, the fifteen buffalos
which have been presented to the United
States Government for the reservation
which has recently been created there is
about to be begun by the keepers of the
Bronx Park.

to aid In the work. Among the herd will
be six specially selected cows of the
strongest stock, several large bulls and a
number of younger animals. TIL value of
the fifteen specimens is said to be fully
S25, 900.
For some years the Department Of Agri-
culture at Washington has been working
for the preservation of a herd of bison
under government supervision, but has
been unable to provide a suitable park
for them. The matter was brought to the
attention of President Roosevelt a year
ago, and during the last session of Con-
gress the sum of $4,000 was appropriated.

WAS DAUGHTER
OF FRENCH
COUNTESS
Mrs. Marguerite Carter De-
serted by Husband, Whom
She Sought in Vain.

NEW YORK, Sept. GA close friend
of Mrs. Marguerite Carter, who COM
mitted suicide last week in the home
of John Jay White, the retired broker,
declares that Mrs. Carter confded to
her at one time that she was the
daughter of a French countess. Ae-
cording to this friend Mrs. Carriers
maiden name was Marguerite Louise
Marie de Maribeau, her birthplace was
Paris and the date of her birth July,
1876.
Her mother died at her birth and
she was brought up by her grand
mother. On the death of her grand
mother she was placed under the guar
dianship of a grand uncle who lived
in Philadelphia. She married Leigh
Carter, an Englishman, In 1898, but he
deserted her just after their honey
moon while she was i'll with typhoid
fever in this city.
The friend a y tina Mrs, Carter
told her she made no less han four
teen attempts at suicide.
Mrs. Carter was not always melan-
choly. She was very sympathetic and
became interested in the protection of
dumb animals. While she was doing
lnlS WOTk Sn6 WdS Hdppy anu lOi eON
her determination to kill herself.
1t was necessary. of course, for her
to have money to live and to obtain
this she devoted herself to selling sug-
gestions for advertisements for stories
In the wspapers
She made some non in this way,
but her chief source of income was
from several minor inventions. She in
vented a contrivance for holding down
a woman's shirt waist n holding up
the skirt. This she called the double
grip and it had a great sale, An
other invention was the 'invalid's
shade" This was a shade for an cleo
trio or gas light to protect the eyes
of a sick person from the brilliant
light.
At first Mrs. Carter had difficulty in
finding a market for her Inventions.
She made the acquaintance of a Mr..
Collins, who was a buyer for one OF
the large department stores, and
through his help she was soon making
a handsome income. She received a
weekly income of $50 from the sale of
the double grip and almost as much
from the "invalid's shade.">
When Mrs. Carter had a bank ac-
count she began a search for her hus-
band She sent for English directories.
She found that there were about seven
teen Leigh Carriers in London and near
ly as many in Manchester. She took
steamer and visited every person of
the name. She did not succeed in hnd-
ing any trace of her husband.

The Hats Are Gorgeous.
Promenade

Great is the word? Hats never were larger
never SO extravagantly and gorgeously trimmed
They startle you at first glance and you wonder how
you are ever going to wear such immense things, but
when you see them worn on the right heads you con-
clude that they are not so awful after all. Anyhow, not
all the hats are large. Those who like the less preten-
tious and Frsnchy effects are well cared for. In fact it
is a season admitting of greater diversity than any we
can remember-tho everything, in style and color and
treatment, tends to howiness
Our direct importations of Paris made hats will
doubtless excite a great deal of comment and criticism.

In Paris, you know, they go to extremes-at least we
more conservative Americans think so-and these Paris
Pattern Hats may not please everyone, but we promise
you you'll see some real beauties in the collection-hats
that are novel, yet beautiful and wearable. The Paris
hats form a feature that stands the Hahne g. Co. show
ing apart from the commonplace.
Mothers will be delighted with the quaint little
French BonnetS we've imported for the little folks.
Bring the little girls to he opening.
The hats from the hands of our own artist milin-
ers are surprisingly beautiful, and reveal a taste and
skill as rare as it is valued. Even in the most popular
priced hats there is distinctiveness and beauty.
