Mr.. PLATT'S NEMESIS
IS SENT TO JAIL
Judge Denounces Mae Wood as a
WiIfuI PerjureF.

New York (Special) From the
county courthouse as plaintiff and
accuser to the Tombs as prisoner and
accused Mae Catherine Wood, who
for 1--WE years has acclaimed herself
as the secret wife of United States
Senator Plat, walked up Lafayette
Street, charged by Justice O'Gorman,
who had listened to her testimony
in Special Term, Part 8, of the SUI
preme Court in her suit for divorce
from the senior senator of New York,
based on his marriage to Mrs. Lii
! liam Janeway, with deliberate per-
jury
This unexpected termination of her
suit came with dramatic suddenness.
The taking of her evidence over, JUS
tice~ o. German had asked her few
questions concerning her claims, and
had then listened to a short address
by her counsel, Charles E. LeBar-
bier, in opposition to motion to
dismiss the suit on the pleadings and
evidence. The lawyers somewhat
apologize argument ended, Justice
O'Gorman leaned forward in his
chair, Aangled pencil couple of
times and then delivered himself of
this short but positive opinion:
The court cannot credit the plain
tiff's evidence as to the alleged mar
riage, and the testimony in the case
impresses the court with the belief
that it is most wicked design to
support fictitious claim by forgery
and perjury.
The court cannot believe from
the evidence that there ever was,
marriage. On the merits Of the case
every issue has resulted in the courts
impression that the plaintiff has COM
mitted wilful perjury in this case.
Being impressed with the plain
tiff's guilt of perjuryethe court COM
mits her to the city prison unless
she furnishes bail in $4,000"
The Wood woman fiinched less
than her lawyers as the blow fell.
Something of what was coming had
been suspected by onlookers for al
most half an hour, when Captain
Lynch, of the court officers squad,
had stalked into the courtroom short
ly after recess and taken a place an
arms length or so from Mrs. Wood.
Mr.. LeBarbier glanced at Lynch out
of the corner of his eye, and turned
to Joseph Day Lee, the woman's at
torney of record, to whisper a few
words. Lees pa1lid face turned al
most white as he listened, but not a
word was said by either to Mrs.
Wood Then, when what they had
feared became an actuality, the two
lawyers faced the woman with scared
countenances.
She said little. Her lips frightened,
the color came and went in her
cheeks and her bosom palpitated visi-
bly,. But beyond that casual spec
tator might have inferred that the
pronouncement of the court, brand
ing her as felon, one who would
stoop to perjury to accomplish her
blackmailing ends, related not to her,
but to some person in whom she took
little or no interest.

met DEATH ON
WAY TO SHRINE
A Train Filled With Pilgrims In a
Wreck.

Antwerp [By Cable) The worst
accident in the annals of Belgian
RAILROAD disasters occurred at Con-
: itch, a station six miles southeast of
Antwerp, on the main line. An ex-
press train from Antwerp to Brus-
sells crashed into train filled with
pilgrims on their way to a local
shrine. This train was standing on
siding and several of its cars were
telescoped and shattered to match
wood
The total number of dead is placed
at so and the wounded at over 100.
The engineer and fireman of the ex.
press train were killed outright.
Rescuers from Contich were at
once ON the scene and the labor of
succoring the injured and removing
the dead was conducted with all pos
sible haste. Special trains with doc
tors, priests and nurses were sent to
Contich from Antwerp and Brussels.
Thirty-eight dead and 10 injured
have been taken from the wreck.
The accident is supposed to have
been due to misplaced switch. The
signal man at Contich saw that his
switch was not working Just as the
Antwerp express came laundering
down the line. He leaped from the
window of his signal station and ran
down the track toward the oncoming
train. waving red flag. His effort,
however, was too late to avert a
disaster
The judicial authorities of Antwerp
soon arrived on the scene and open
ed an investigation into the disaster,
They ordered the signal men in
charge of the switches under arrest
although it is believed by the author
tiles that they were blameless. The
engineer and firemen of the express
car were both killed at their posts
