The most amiable of women beoome mothers,

couples would adopt the sonsible plan of
forming independent homes, however hum

l.t on Appeal and the Prlaontr Hen
tented The Watery af the Ilvland Gaa(.
Col. Follows has been known for yean
among criminal lawyora as the most pliable
official in the District-Attorney's office, and
one who can bo approaohed with confidence
when justice presses closely on the influen
tial criminal.
Many cases aro pigeon-holed in the office
where Col. Fellows has been induced to defer
prosecution and has allowedythe criminal to
o free on giving a bond, but Central Office
etectlves know a case where a well-known
felon was allowed by Col. Fellows to give a
flimsy bond for on insignlflrant amount after
conviction and sentence The story has been
investigated and verified in every particular
by a reporter of Trot Evxwwo Wobld and is
as follows:
Some five yean ago there flourished in this
city a set of well-known oheck forgers and
raisonwho went by the name of "Tho By
land Gang." The gang consisted of Edward
0. Itvland. known among the fraternity as
"Clever Nedt" his wife Elsie, his
brother James and his brother-in-law
William Woodman. Their line of business
was to obtain checks for small amounts from
respectable tradesmen and either raise the
amount or forge a number of checks in the
same name Woodman was an export en
graver and could produce a fao slmilo of tho
cheoks used by any bank in the city.
The woman Elsie Byland was tho most val
uable member of the gang. Bho was young
and pretty, very well educated and of engag.
ing and even fascinating addrers. She could
play to perfection the part of a young widow
and on a numbor of pretexts wheedle trades,
men into giving her small checks on their
banks in exchange for cash.
She soon became known to Inspeotor
Byrnes and bis men, but twice escaped oon
viction because it could not not be proved
that sho was a party to tho raising of tho
cheoks.
In January, 1882, she entered the grocery
store of DomaroBt & Duncan, No. 1625 Third
avonue, and said sho wanted to sond 86 to her
mother in Philadelphia. Tho Post-Office was
closed and. sho could not get an order,
so sho wanted Demarest fe Duncan to
obligo her with a check, payable to the order
of Goorgiana Mace. Having obtained it, she
trippod away smilingly. This check sho
cave to her husband who erased tho
namo and the amount with acid and
mado it call for the paymont of
$185.50 to Georclana Martin. The woman
took this to the North Iliyor Bank, received
tho money, kept 71 and divided tho remain
dor botween hor confederates.
Sho escaped arrest for several weeks, but
was Anally arrested, together with tho other
members of the gang, by Detectives Blovln
and Phil Bollly, of the Central Office
The gang had plenty of money for counsel
fees, and rotained Peter Mitchell, James F.
Pendleton and Frank Oliver for tho defense
In splto of their efforts all the prisoners wero
convicted on May 18 of tho same year. Elsie
was sontenoed by Bocordor Smyth, Juno IB,
to two years and six months in the peniten
tiary. The others wero sentenced to longer
terms in Sing Sing,
Elsie Byland appealed to the General Term
on tho ground that sho was under coercion
by her husband, but the General Term
promptly sustained the verdlot and sentenoe
of the Court of General Sessions.
On Aug. 11. 1883, after the conviction, the
sentence, and the doclsion of tho Gonoral
Term, John B. Fellows, Assistant District
Attorney, walked quietly with Elsie's counsel,
Lawyer Peter Mitchell, into tho Supremo
Court Chambers before Judge Charles
Donohuo. Lawyer Mitchell produced a
petition citing that Elsie Byland, conviotod
of forgery and sentcnoed to two vears and
six months' imprisonment in the Court of
General Sessions, had appealed to the Court
of Appeals and asked to bo released on bail
ponding tho doclsion of tho highcBt court in
the State.
Ool. John B. Fellows, Assistant District.
Attornoy, Rtood at his friend Mitchell's side
and gave his assent to this extraordinary pro.
ceeding.
Ool. i'ettowi. on bthalf of the PeovU of Om
Blatt of New York,fixtd Ov amount of a suUa.
bit and rufflcient bond in the case of thtt con
victed mrmber of a gang of furgrrg at 100.
Tho bond was furnished by John Early, of
321 Elizabeth street, and tho signature J. It.
Fellows, Assistant District-Attorney,
appears on the back of that bond as consent
ing thereto.
As soon as Elsie was sot free by this pro.
coedins she skipped out of the Stato,
and when, in March, 1883, the Court
of Appeals finally confirmed her convic
tion sho could not bo found. Tho bond
of 8100 was duly forfeited, but tho detoctiveB
lookod for tho woman in vain.
For many long months sho escaped justlco,
but on Juno 10, 1884, she was caught trying
to pass a forged oheck and is now in the
penitentiary.
Col. Follows gave her tho best chance ho
could to get clean off to Canada, and it was
not any fuult of his that sho was recaptured.

Not content with the morning edition that far
eclipsed tn circulation all Its contemporaries,
Mr. Joseph Pulitzer threw out an evening edi
tion of Tn Wobld that sold over 111,000 copies
the first day and has gone oa Increasing ever since.
Tnz World's success Is unparalleled. It Is not an
accidental success. It comes from the fact that
Tnx World Is unparalleled as a newspaper.

The New York World must be set down as the

standard this Individual or that sets np to measure

from Bt. Louis and resurrected It. New blood gave
the paper growth until It now has the largest circu

It has tho most mechanical facilities and the most

SWU v?m heard more or less
s&lasgar about him for five
yean, but tho thousands of Democrntio
voters who will read his name on their tickets
election day know nothing whatever of his
record. Publlo curiosity has been intensified
by despatches publishod in Tub Wobld from
rural regions where Mr. Bansom onco lived,
expressing surprise at hearing of a one
time " rabid Republican " posing as a Demo
cratic nominee.
Bastus B. Hansom was an obscure man in
this city until somo friends on tho street got
him the Beceivership of the Open Board of
Stock Broken in 1882. The affairs of this
unf ortunato concern were so badly compli
cated that tho law firm of Bansom & Knovals
was called in to straighten matters out.
There was somo difficulty between tho Build
ing Association of the Board and the Board
itself. When Bansom took hold of affairs
about 820.000 was turned ovor to him from
tho Building Association, and for three yean
ho handled an annual rental of $13,000 from
the building. The settlement of affairs
dragged along until 1885, when it was consid
ered advisable to change the receiver. Ban
som withdrew and J. E. O. Sherwood was
substituted for him.
mot much yon the buokibs.
Of tho thousands of dollars that had passed
through Bansom's hands as receiver, ho
turnod over to his successor something like
$126. All the rest had been swallowed up in
counsel fees and "current expensos." Tho
brokers raised a howl about it and openly
aoousod Bansom of duplicity and collusion
with an auctioneer to sell the building of the
Board, No. 42 Broad street, on his
own responsibility and make conditions
whioh would be of advantage only to
himself. Particular objections were raised
to tho enormous sums or money Bansom had
paid out in counsel foes to Sidney S. Harris,
a warm friend of his. A batch of law
suits sprang out of tho new oomplications,
and one of the referees selected in adjudicat
ing them was Henry S. Howland, now candi
date for Supremo Court Judge on tho Bepub
lican ticket.
COUNT! DEUOOBATB BEJIOTED UI1I.
Nowspaper notoriety obtained through those
operations brought Bansom's name promi
nently before the publio. About that timo
some powerful though not apparent influences
were pressing him upon tho County Demo,
crats as nominee for the Superior Court
bench to Bucceed Judge Sedgwick. The in.
dignant mombers of the Open Board of
Broken made a strong protest and the
County Democrats, after looking into Ban
som's record, refused to take him up, Then
his friends made an assault on Tammany and
carried their point. Bastus S. Bansom was
8ut up as Tammany nomineo for Judge of
le Superior Court.
Every effort was made to get the Republi
cans to indorse Bansom's nomination. It was
particularly urcod that Bansom had worked
tooth and nail for tho Bepublican National
ticket in 1880, and that in 1884 he kept dis
creetly quiet. Singularly enough. "Johnny "
O'Brien and other powerful allies of Jay
Gould were most conspicuous in urging this
indorsement on the Bepublican organization.
But it was refused. The Republicans stood
by Judge Sedgwick.
Then Gould and his friends begun tactics
which at once exposed their hands. They
openly canvassed for Ransom on Wall street
and in the business exchanges. The angry
members of tho Open Board of Brokers
opposed them at every stop. Cyrus W.
Field joined hands with Gould in pushing
Ransom. Brokers were personally solioited
to vote for him and brokers' clerks
were given to understand that it was for their
interest to give tho Tammany candidate
their cordial support, even if thoy voted for
every other man on tho Republican ticket.
Both Gould and Field personally peddled
Ransom tickets. Elevated road employees
wero forcibly informed that RanBom was a
man for them to consider. The result of all
this effort cut down Judge Sedgwiok's vote
enormously, but ho triumphed, and Rastus
S. Ransom retired for a while from pubho
view.
WHT OOULD WANTED A JTJDOZ.
Rastus S. Ransom was a useful man to Jay
Gould. As a Judge of the Superior Court
his usefulness would have been boundless.
At tho time ho was a candidate there wero
107 cases on tho Superior Court calendar in
which Gould and Field hod an in
terest. They consisted mainly of
actions for damages against the ele
vated railroads, and tho claims aggregated
millions of dollars. They had beon post
ponod again and again until further delay
was almost impossible. Trial was inevitable,
and Gould wanted a judge of his ohoico on
tho bench. He solectcd ltastus S. Ransom,
who had rendered him Bignal service as conn,
sol for the receivers of the Manhattan Ele
vated Railroad in tho notorious proceedings
before Judge Westbrook.
This, briefly, is Rastus S. Ransom's career
in New York city. Aro the men who were
behind him in 1885 bohind him now ?

Who Was a Hitter Enemy.
"I would rather vote for Democrats on a

to-day, "than to vote for Republicans on a
Democratlo ticket. For instance, there is
George H. Forster and Rastus S. Ransom,
who were stalwart Republicans up to a few
years ago. Now thoy call themselves Demo
crats and nre on the ' combine ticket."
George H. Forster was for yean ono of tho
leaders of tho Republican party in Wostches.
tor County. Ho was known throughout the
county as a bitter and partisan Republican.
Ho represented the Westchester-Rockland
District in tho Senate of 1880-1881 and
nlvnys votod with his party on party
measures. Ho opposed all just
and equitable exoise laws, and on political
questions never failed to tako part in the de
bates against the Democratlo party. He was
a bitter partisan. He was converted a few
years ago and was admitted into Tammany
Hall. Ho was nominated in 1884 for District.
