held between $4,000 and $4,000.
After inspecting the ropes with
which Schnackcnberg had been bound,
the police believed the old man had
been beaten to death after being

made love to her and asked her to
marry him, was a girl, and to-day
she went to Harlem Court and asked
for a summons for the alleged inlper-
senator, Caroline Schimick of King
ston, n. Y. She said she wanted Car

to lose many opportunities for mar
riagc during those two years and also
because Caroline had broken her
heart. Also she wanted to prevent
Jack from duping other girls
1t was to Assistant District Attor
ney Lehman that Mary told her story
Of disappointment. incidentally Mr..
Lehman told her she would have to
wait till Caroline came to New York
before a summons could be served on
her. This was the tale Mary told.
She said she was twenty three
years old, lived at No. 2274 Lexington

her then that "hc" was too young to
marry and, besides, "hc" hadn't
enough money,

Mary waited, and as there was no

was a girl, that her name was Caro-
line and that she was the sole sup
port of the family, consisting of a
mother and six other children. She
showed Mary pictures OF Caroline in
dresses and the romance was shat
tered to a hundred pieces. But Mary's
heart was still sore and she returned
