TERRIFIED BY
RUDE INTRUDER
BRAKEMAN PUSHES WAY INTO
STRANGE HOUSES
FRIoHTENs WOMEN ALMOST OUT
OF THEIR WITS
Believed to Be Victim of Cheap
Whisky and Drugs, and Is Now
Lying In Central Police
Station

c. ]. McCann, who claims to be a
railroad brakeman and arrived here
two weeks ago from Detroit, Mich,
looking for work, was arrested at Sec
ond and Olive streets last night by
Patrolman McComas and booked at
central police station on suspicicocn.
Earlier in the evening McCann had
been annoying people living on Temple,
Olive and Hill streets, north OF First
and Bunker Hill avenue. by walking
into their houses unannounced and
asking strange and foolish questions.
At Temple and Olive streets he was
knocked down and thrown out of the
house. He then went to 1873 North
Bunker Hill avenue. where he was
thrown out of the house of A. v. de
Toro. From there he went to the
Edythe apartment house. SIG West First
street, and scared the landlady and a
number of women guests. Meantime
Mr.. de Toro had followed the man and
pointed him out to the officer.
McCann is supposed to be suffering
from delirium caused by over indul-
gence in cheap whisky and drugs. He
will be held until his record can be
thoroughly investigated. The police
are of the opinion that he is the man
who entered the lodging house at 217
South Hill street Friday night and
frightened Miss Sadie Black by enter
ing her bedroom.

TOO POOR TO BUY
POISON; TRIES TO KILL
HERSELF WITH SCISSORS
TaiIoress Unable to Obtain Work Be-
comes Despondent and
Seeks to End
Life

Despondent because of her inability
to secure employment, and in almost
destitute circumstances, Juanita
Fonge, aged 35, tailoress, stabbed
herself in the head nine times with
pair of scissors in her room at 312
West Twelfth street yesterday after
noon.
The woman had searched for en-
ployment until she was so weary that
she could scarcely walk. When she
arrived at her home yesterday, shortly
after noon she began to brood over her
i'll fortune and decided to end her life.
Being without money and unable to
procure poison with which to end her
struggle for existence she decided to
use her scissors-her scissors, which
she had once depended on to provide
a livelihood.
Standing In front of a mirror to
make sure of the sharp weapon reach
ing the proper spot, she jabbed the
point of the scissors into her head just
above the right temple nine times, then
fell to the floor screaming.
Neighbors heard her cries and rushed
into the room and found the woman
lying in a pool of blood which was
gushing from the numerous wounds.
The unfortunate woman begged to- be
allowed to die and refused to allow
anyone to render assistance. The po-
lice were notified, and the woman was
taken to the receiving hospital, where
Police Surgeon Wright dressed her in
juries.
Later the woman appeared calmer
and expressed her desire to live and
fight the battle for bread. She declared
she would not again attempt to END
her life. She was allowed to leave the
hospital and go to her home.

tended to kill her and requesting her

ceeded in wrenching himseR loose and
threw the woman from him. Then fol-
lowed a chase through all the rooms
in the house.

in the door just as the exhausted wo-
man had taken refuge under the bed.

he had no recollection of attempting to
kill his wife.

GEN. WARDWELL'S
SUFFERING ENDED
PASSES AWAY AT TOMBSTONE,
ARIZONA
Aged War Veteran Remained with
Helpmeet Until Death Separated
Them-Case Exceedingly
Pathetic
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
TOMBSTONE, Ariz., Aug. 15.-With
one patient dead and the other inmate
insane at quarantine quarters here,
there has been added another tragic
event to the already remarkable leper
case which has caused widespread no
toriety and occupied the attention OF
Arizona and Washington authorizes
for the past several weeks.
At $50 this afternoon General ID. *.
Wardwell died while in quarantine with
his now demented wife, who has un-
mistakable evidence of Ieprosy.
Her suffering from the combined Ell
fects of the terrible malady ana the
nervous strain following the attendant
notoriety have dethroned her reason,
and she is unaware that the grim reap
er has called her aged husband. GEN
eraI Wardwell, although not afflicted
with leprosy, had steadfastly and con-
stantly remained with his wife and
shared her humiliation and troubles
with devotion and loyalty that COM
manded profound admiration.
The deceased was veteran of the
Mexican and Civil Wars.
He was recognized as a fine organizer
and disciplinarian, and was highly rec
commended in the reports of Generals
Franklin, Martindale, McClelland, Por-
ter, Emory and Hicks for distinguished
service.
The couple were held under quaran-
tine here.
Efforts to deport the woman to the
leper colony brought out many compli-
cations, the federal authorities refus-
ing aid and territorial officials being
unable to. act under the present law.
1t is probable Mrs Wardwell will re-
main isolated here and cared for until
her death. An effort is being made to
secure a pardon of her brother, who is
in the penitentiary, so that he can
nurse his sister.

BAYSIDE, L. l.. Aug. 15.-
Capt. Peter Conover Haines, jr.,
son of Brig. Gen. Peter c. Haines,
U. S. A., retired, fired seven bull
let's from a revolver into William
E. Annis of New York, owner
and publisher of Burr McIntosh's
Monthly and other magazines,
late today on the landing stage of
the Bayside Yacht club.
Annis, whom Capt. Haines'
brother had accused of having
been improperly attentive to the
captains wife, died in the Flush
ing hospital few hours after the
shooting.
A crowd of gayly dressed wo-
men and yachtsmen, among
whom was Mrs. Annis, witnessed
the tragedy.
Capt. Haines, accompanied by
his brother, Thornton ]. Haines,
well known as an author and
amateur yachtsman, walked to
the landing stage as Annis and a
club member named Harway
were disembarking from a boat,
and at once opened fire upon
Annis.
Annis attempted to get behind
Harway, but Capt. Haines
reached under Harway's arm and
emptied his revolver upon his
enemy.
Immediately there was COM
motion on the clubhouse veranda.
Mrs. Annis tainted and dozen
yachtsmen rushed to the float to
the assistance of the wounded
man. Before they could get to
his side, however, T. ]. Haines
whipped out a revolver and
threatened to shoot the first man
who interfered.
"This is an affair between these
two," he said coolly.
Annis had two bullets in his
abdomen, one in the arm and two
in his legs.
Capt. Haines and his brother,
neither of whom appeared in any
way disturbed, awaited the ar
rival of the police on the float and
then surrendered themselves.
Capt. Haines is attached to
Fort Hancock as quartermaster,
having entered the army at the
close of the Spanish American
war with the rank of second lieu
tenant of artillery. He is a grad
uate of the naval academy at An
napois, but left the navy in 1904,
shortly after graduation. His
father, Brig. Gen. Peter c.
Haines, is a West Point graduate
with a distinguished war record.
