teen Fined.

Directed Illegal Work-MOre
Arrests Are Due.

Six OF the twenty-five election officials
who pleaded guilty 10 perpetrating FRAUDS
i'm the recent election on the constitutional
convention were sentenced yesterday by
Justice Vernon NJ Davis, in the criminal
branch OF the Supreme Court. to six
months in the penitentiarN. The otherS
were fined SiOo each. which they paid.
Through the connivance Of these ofi-
Gals more than eight hundred fraudulent
votes were cast. Although the men say
that they received no definite orders re-
carding the vote. they admit that 1t was
generally understood that Tammahy
Hall was in favor OF the convention ior
the purpose Of redistricting the city. IL
is said at the District Attorney once
that more indictments Of similar nature
will follow and that there is a possibility
OF locating the men who were directly
responsible for the fraud at the polls.
All Of the fraudulent voting which so
far has been disclosed by District Attor-
ney Whitman's investigation was IN the
18th Assembly District-that of Charles
7. Murphy. While the investigation IS
continuing, the City Club and the Honest
Ballot Association will make an effort
TO prevent the holding Of the convention
as Il is thought that enough fraudulent
votes were cast to change the outcome
Of the election.

six months in the Blackwelrs Island

Woman Causes Arrest OF
English Suitor Who Re-
fused to Wed.
ALLEGES HE ADMITTED
HE ACTED AS A "CAD"
Letters Show How His love
Cooled Five Days BefOre'Date
Set for the Marriage.

Frederic Maccabe, an Englishman'
twenty-five years old. Of the Standard
Marine Insurance Company, 81 William
St. was arrested yesterday by Deputy
Sherlrs Mcdonnell and Zeltner in
breach of promise suit which Miss Flor
once Howe, OF Pittston, Penn, has
brought against him. She asks for S@o'-
90 damages Maccabe furnished the
s., go bail bond required and was released
Miss Howe, who describes herself as
upward Of twenty-one years, alleges
that the promise OF marriage was made
September l2, 1913. and that she adver-
tised the fact i'm newspapers in Pittston.
Il is alleged the wedding day had been
fixed for May II and the place for the
ceremony at the home Of Willard ID.
Howe, a brother of the plaintiff, who
lives ut Scarsdale, Westchester County.
The arrangements had progressed so far,
says Miss Howe, that $500 had been spent
on her trousseau and that Maccabe had
rented an apartment at. $40 West Hath st.
on May 6, she alleges, she received a
letter which caused her to suffer ner-
yous collapse, for in il Maccabe told
how sorry he was that he could not carry
out the agreement to marry and also
put himself down as a cad. He further
said that he really did not love her.
81 know you will be hurt and surprised
at receiving this letter" 1T is said Mac
cabe wrote. but | feel that under the
circumstances it is all | can do You
must have noticed that l was not as
7 ghntttI haVa hp1n
and YOU have probably put it down TO my
natural coldness and reserve. But II Is
really more than that. l don't really
love you, and don't think, in fact that
| am quite sure that 1 could make you
happy. and when there are misgiVlngs
the only thing TO do is not TO marry.
II have fought this thing out with my
self. and while l know 1 am playing
cad's part I can't help feeling that it is
better that way. Please forgive me FOR
all the trouble and pain | have caused
you"
Subsequently Maccabe met Miss Howe's
brother at the Yale Club, OF which MT.
Howe is a member and talked the al
fair over with him.
Another letter by Maccabe is attached
to the papers, i'm which he wrote: / am
dying to see what my father wrote to
YOU. It looked a pretty fat letter. DID
he ask YOU how old you were? l am
afraid l am an awful boob about this
marriage business, this being the first eX-
perience I've had"
The letter from Maccabe's father who
lives at discard. Cheshire, England con-
tanned some kindly advice TO Miss Howe.
81 am old-fashioned enough he SAID TO
know that happiness cannot be bought nor
got for wealth, but must come from "lth-
i'm and be founded on love and affection
Maccabe has already filed his answer !
the suit brought by Miss Howe. and II Is
mostly a denial. lie does admit that OIL
the request Of Miss Howe he paid $40 LOT

gagement.

NO MOSES WANTED
In J0BLESS EGYPT
Angry Hoboes Hunt the Man Who
Said Kansas Was the Land
of Free Lunch Promise.

Hundreds of hoboes were looking last
night for Joseph Cohen, former divinity
student and investigator for the Russeii
Sage Foundation, who has been advertls-
ing that he wants to take them TO Kansas.
Just as they were expecting pleasant
trip to The West land back, with free
lunch all the way. Cohen disappeared, ana
every poor hard working never-work was
driven out OF the Manhattan Lyceum oy
the police.
Cohen had been saying that - wanted
1000 men to go to help out the farmers
OF Kansas. and would start with a train
load of 800 July s. Charles Hirsch, pro-
prieto- OF Lyceum Hall, where the hoooes
meet, warned the men and notified the
police Hirsch declared that II Cohen
turns up at Lyceum Hall to-day he VIII
have him arrested
In one Of his speeches Cohen said: To
prove that we want work and are sincere
in our efforts to get TO the farmers OF
Kansas, if the railroads refuse to carry
all Of our men We will be compelled to
resort to violence
The hoboes are a little undecided. They
admit Kansas is a long way 10 go on a
free lunch chase But then. they are out
of free lunch just now. Their old friend
and patron, j. Eads How. the millionaire
hobo" who used to provide for them every
Sunday at the Lyceum, has not been TO
see them in months. and Alexander Law,
who acted as Hows secretary in the hobo
organization, the Brotherhood Welfare
Association, has left them unfed two
weeks.
But Law hurried back last night and
said he would soon end this attempt on
the part of the /. w. w. TO exploit his
men. Law said he had been away for a
two weeks vacation, and believed he had
left complete instructions at the Lyceum
so that he could not be missed. He said
he would be on hand to-day to pay up
back rent and show how foolish this talk
of work is.

As soon as the report of Fngand's first

Erglishmen found their way to the smok-
ing room. A repast was ordered to cele-
brate the success at Meadow Brook.

Pacific Steam Navigation Company, who

CLERGYMAN GOES
AFTER KINCSBURY
Father Farrell, in Hospital
Controversy, Refers to
Him as "EX-HobO."

Charities Commissioner Kingsbury was
handled without gloves by the Rev. w. j..
Farrell, president Of the WILLIAMSBURG
Hospital, in a statement issued yesterday
in reply to Mr.. Kingsbury's attack on

details OF my findings in the matter OF
the hospitals. and threats of lawsuit

me no alarm l wonder if the Commits
sioner realizes what he is threatening

on this line TO me seems both childish
and impudent / do not think he has
the standing or the qualifications TO read
me a lecture on behavior or what con-
stitutes the actions of gentleman. l

Just before his appointment as Com
missioner ! saw in one Of the papers a
large portrait of Mr.. Kingsbury and

he recited-rather boastfully, l thought
among other things. that he had been
both a horse jockey and hobo. do

training or his experience was such as
entitled him to instruct me in ethics or
morals.

partment until. by continued publication.

evil conditions in his hospitals, and had
so filled the poor with dread that many
feared TO so to them. 1 had practical

trivial pretexts. Of cases the private hos

accused me Of making false and mislead-
