IRS. HANSEN CAUGHT
The Alleged Swindler Sur
renders Herself to
Chief Murphy,
GIVEN TO BROOKLYN POLICE
Says She Gave hr. Lott Her Notes
for His Money—Her Career
in This City.
Mrs. Mary Hansen, ahas Gibson,
Clark. Kins, Westhail and almost every
name one can think of. who-has been
confounded with Mrs. Ellon Peek in the
swindling or Dr. Christopher -Lott, of
Brooklyn, out of $10,000, this- morning
surrendered herself ‘to CMef- of Police
MUrphy of this city. The police -of New
York and Brooklyn have for-more--than
a week been looking for Mrs.- Hansen.
They believed her to- be the famous con
fidence woman. Mrs Ellen Peck who*
startled the police of the large cities a
few years ago by swindling'the Banbitt
family out of $20,000. At about that time
Mrs. Mary Hansen appeared on the
scene and she proved quite as clever as
Mrs. Peck. She was equally clever and
A.-h nrrtfttoKld Tt hliqinPRR. AWflV
back in 1S7C Mrs. Hdftsen appeared in
this city. Among her victims were Hcir
* ace Farrier and ether prominent resi
dents. Mrs. Hansen's game at that time
was to borrow mondy IA aftticipatlojl Of;
the collection of 5500,*WO. Which had been
left her by a priest lh Germany. Her
story was swallowed* Without salt, prob
ably because Cardin&t McCloskey was :
supposed to be. getting the money for
her The mention of the Cardinal's name
brought her anywhere froth ” 51.TJQ0* *to
52.500 each trip. Mrs. Hansen finally dis
appeared. A lot of Jersey City gold
went with her. Chief Murphy traced her
to Philadelphia and arrested her. Imme
diate!? after her arrest if was found
that verai wealthy* Philadelphians- had
been .indled by her. .
She vas removed to this city for trial.
Counsellor Charles Wnfield: now Prose
cutor defended her. His defense was-that
it was impossible for a woman to swindle
such shrewd men as he was * accused of
doing. She was acquired. Mr. Hansen
was then 45 years old. Chief * Miifphy
heard of her frequently afteb that. * ‘She
was at her old tricks ahd was' doih'g a
flourishing business. “When *fh6* Dr'. Lott
case came to the surface the Chief
recognized the handwriting of h'is old
friend Mrs. Hansen. Yesterday when the
police were getting pretty close to
Hansen she sent word to Chief Murphy
that she would meet him at the Annex
ferry on this side of the river at nine,
o’clock, surrender and allow him to take
her to Brooklyn. The Chief communi
cated with the Brooklyn authorities at
once and directed them to havfe a detective
on a certain boat, further announcing
that if his instructions were carried out
he woud deliver to them the alleged
swindler of Dr. Lott.
The information caused surprise in
Brooklvn police circles. At the appointed
hour Mrs. Hansen put in an appearance
looking, Chief Murphy says, younger than
she did twenty years ago when f he ar
rested her. ,, . .,
“I am not afraid of police, she said,
•‘only I wanted you to take me to the
PrA.,irivn T wanted to show them
that I am not afraid to face this absura
cnacge. I admit having obtained; $10,000
from Dr. Lott, but he bas my notes for
L and I am srure if the Doctor werfe alive
he would not think of prosecuting tnis
easel The money I obtained as a lpan.
“If is strange.” she finally said.: “that
whenever I gpt in trouble I have tq come
to you. Chief.”
When the woman was delivered 50 the
Brooklyn police about seventy-five Repor
ters made a l$ig howl because Chief Mur
phy had appaTently imparted to a certain
paper the information that Mrs. Hansen
Would surrender herself to him this morn
ing. In the presence of the reporters Mrs.
Hansen admitted that she had disposed of
that information to an advantage to the
paper in question. On three occasionsjMrs.
Hansen procured $2,500, S10.00Q and $12,000
respectively. The woman has relatives in
this city. __

BEPOBLICAN COMMITTEE TO BUILD
Plans Now RraAr lor the New Struc
ture on Psvonls Avenue.
The Hudson County Republican Com
mittee is soon to have a brand new homo
of its own on the corner of the Boulevard
and Pavonia avenue, and will also be a
legally Incorporated society. That was
definitely settled last night at a special
meeting called for the purpose of passing
on a resolution authorizing the trustees
to file a certificate .of incorporation for
‘ The Hudson County Republican Com
mittee.”
This resolution went through nem con.
and was enthusiastically received. To
carry out its effect these trustees Ifave
been empowered:—Ex-Mayor P. F. Wan
ser, Edward W. Woolley, Samuel D.
Dickinson, Michael Schultz, Jr.. Thomas
McEwan. Jr., John J. Erwin, J. J. Tnffey,
J. MeComb. F. Angel. T. Coughlin, E. W.
Demarest and Charles Eichhorn.
The trustees have already secured plans
for the new building. The lot on. which
it will stand is 50x125 feet, and the build
ing will run the full depth and have 35
feet frontage on the Boulevard. It is to
be a frame, three-storied structure of
the Queen Anne style of architecture, and
when finished will be exceedingly hand
some. The main hall will be on the sec
ond floor with a seating capacity of 500.
Here will be held the regular County
Committee meetings, conventions, lec
tures and entertainments. There will be
a stage in the hall.
The next floor will contain cloak and
hat rooms and here the janitor will have
his apartments. The first floor will be
divided into committee rooms in which
during the campaigns clerks will do the
requisite work for elections. . This will
do away. with the former practice of
hiring rooms in different quarters of the
city for that purpose. The steam heating
apparatus and electric light plant will
find a place on this floor. When the in
corporation papers are filed the trustees
Will at once push the work of erection
and it is hoped that the new building will
be ready in time for the fall election. Its
opening will be the occasion of a great
Republican gathering, to which will be
invited the Governor and big and small
Republican fry.
The committee last night notified the
election committeemen to send in their
lists of election officers to Mr. Martin
Pinck, who will supervise them before
filing them with the County Board of
Elections. __

PAST0R JOHNSON OVERCOME.
• While preaching his sermon in the
Trinity Baptist Church. Bowers street, on
Sunday night, the Rev. Rufus Johnson,
pastor of the church was suddenly
stricken with a fainting spell. His wife,
who was sitting with the congregation,
and a number of the officers of the
church ran to his assistance while a
messenger hurried to summon Dr. Nevihs •
who lives opposite and the clergyman
soon recovered consciousness, but was
still very weak. A number of people car
ried him in a chair to the street where
the physician’s carriage was in waiting
and conveyed the stricken man to his
home on Summit avenue. Much sympathy
is expressed for the reverend gentleman
who has evidently broken down under the
strain of overwork. Last night he was
reported greatly Improved.

BLOWN OPJY NAPTHA
Terrific Explosion in Newman’s
Tannery, Hoboken, Serious
ly Injures a Workman.
A loud, roaring explosion startled the
neighborhood of Willow avenue and
Ferry street; Hoboken, shortly after 7
o’clock this morning. For a few min
utes .the "residents of that vicinity were
at a loss to know whence the noise came.
The next minute they saw a man rush
from the factory of It. Neumann & Co.,
at Ferry street and Willow avenue, and
ring the fire alarm box. Scarcely a sec
ond more had elapsed when flames began
to shoot up over the board fence in the
rear of the factory building, followed by
two more explosions, which -were almost
deafening.
R. Neumann & Co. are tanners and
manufacturers of leather goods. Their
factory, a large brick building, occupies
about a quarter of the block. The fire
broke out in a small shed about ten feet
high and twelve feet square, located In
the rear yard, about fifty feet from the
mam ouucing. inis sm-u is u»eu as a
dressing room, where skins are cleansed
in naphtha. A big tank, lined with zinc,
was i,n the centre of the shed, and this
was kept almost constantly filled with
naptha and skins.
About ten minutes after seven o'clock
this morning, just after the- employes
had started in to work. Louis Hunter
brunk. 25 years old, a tanner in the fac
tory, entered the shed to take out some
skins. He had not been at work more
than five minutes when there was a deaf
ening explosion. The roof of the shed
was blown oft and Hunterbrook was
hurled over twenty feet into the yard,
Charles Hunterbrook, a brother of Louis,
and Jacob Boland, also employes, who
were standing about thirty feet away
from the shed, were blown completely off
their feet by the concusSton, and Fore
man. Vogel, who was walking over to
the shed at the time, was scorched slight
ly about the face. Following the first
explosion came «two others in rapid suc
cession and the men were so bewildered
that for a time they could not under
stand what had happened.
When Foreman Vogel had recovered
from the shock he looked about him and
saw'Louis Hunterbrunk lying moaning in
the yard where he had been hurled. Pick
ing up the injured man Vogel dragged
him from the raging flames, which were
so fierce that they reached the main build
ing and scorched the windows. Hunter
brunk was badly injured and a number of
other workmen who had run to his as
sistance lost no time in getting him to
the hospital. They did not wait fbr an
ambulance but secured a horse and car
riage from Contractor Patrick Flaherty
and hurried the injured man off to St.
Mary’s Hospital. Hunterbrunk's brother
and Boland, although badly shaken up,
escaped with a few slight burns on the
hands and Foreman Vogel’s injuries did
not compel him to quit work.
All hands then set about to extinguish
the fire, which was in danger of spreading
to the other buildings. The firemen were
soon on the scene and had Several
! streams of water on the shed which had
by this time been reduced ta a mass of
charred timbers. The inflammable naphtha
however, continued to burn with much
fierceness. While Captain John Green, of
their work a tongue o£ flame shot out
from the shed and singed his eyebrows
and face. The fire, however, was soon un
der way and finally extinguished.
There, were about ninety dozen skins of
various kinds in the £hcd and the loss is
estimated at over *1.000. Hur.terbrunk is
badly burned about the face and arms. It
was said at the hospital this morning that
his condition was critical.

A MYSTERY OP YEARS.
Peddler’s Strange Disappearance Ex*
plained by a Farmer’! Find.
[Special to “The Jersey City News.“J
BELVIDERE, July 20, 1897.—What is
now believed to be the ghastly explana
tion of a peddler’s mysterious disappear
ance has been revealed by the find madei
by a delver in the soil of the Great
Meadows, Warren county.
Nearly fifty years ago old John Sim
monds, a peddler of novelties, sought
lodging one stormy night with a farmer
living at that time on the outskirts of
the town of Vienna. That was the last
ever heard of him. Together with his
wagon and stock of goods he disappear
ed as completely as if the earth had
opened and swallowed him.
Suspicion became directed toward the
farmer who had harbored him over
night, but nothing wad ever proven im
plicating him with the disappearance of
the peddler. The latter’s horse, after a
search, was found tied in a clump of I
woods about two miles away.
The neighbors made it so uncomfort
able for the suspected man that he
finally disposed of his possessions, and.,
it is said, went to Canada. The peddler
and his supposed strange fate soon be
came forgotten.
A day or two ago a prominent farmer
living near Vinna decided to secure
some peat in the Great Meadows. In
turning over the soil his spade struck
some had substance, which, being un
earthed. proved to he the rim of a wagon
wheel.
Continuing his search, a number of
bones were revealed, together with
several old Jewsharps. rusty mouth
organs, a box of old penknives, shears
and the general outfit of a peddler’s
cart.
Recollecting the Story of the unex
plained end of Simmonds, years ago. the,
farmer notified his neighbors, and a
good sized crowd congregated about thel
spot. .,
The bones were cafefully put together
and by the addition of a skull which had,
been upturned, the almost perfect frame |
of a human being tVas formed. Exami-;
nation of the skull showed that it had,
been crushed in evidently by a blow.
Further excavations will be made in,
the hope of finding the remainder of mo
wagon and something which may give' :
direct evidence of a struggle.
That tho find fully proves that the
*nM neither met his death bv violence, ■
there is secarcely any doubt here, but, :
owing to the long lapse Of years and thei i
unreliable knowledge now possessed;
concerning the case, it is doubtful if
any effort will be made toward an official
investigation.
IT IS CAPTAIN DIPS NOW.

GOVERNMENT ROAD FAILS
[Special to "The Jeisey City News."]
NEW BRUNSWICK. July 20, 1897.—Res- ! ;
idents of College avenue, this city, are •
disposed to think that road building un- :
der Government supervision is a decided i
failure.
This ts due to the removal of the ma- ]
chinery and experts to Geneva. N. Y.,
when the road in this city was about half 1
done. From an 'investigation made by 1
Asher Atkinson, the city engineer, the ■
road will cost more and is no better built '
than roads built by contract.

iong suit so that your partner can't
blame you for not trumping your op
ponent’s trick.
Rule 6—Engage in conversation across
Dhe table and ascertain the high cards
played in the suits.
Rule 7—Revoke occasionally, as it tends
:o shorten the game by giving your op
ponents three extra tricks.
Rule S—Insist on looking at the last
rhree tricks and call your partner's at
:ention to what has already been played.
Rule D—After each hand is played get
rp a "post mortem’’ and show what
night have happened if your partner had
played differently.
Rule 10—As whist is supposed to be
playei} in silence, be as hilarious as pos
sible, so as to keep the minds of the
players off the game.
Rule 11—If you have friends in the
■oom it is expected that they should look
nto the hands of your opponents and
prompt you what to play.
Rule 12—In dealing wet your thumbs in
pour mouth as often as possible, so you
ran enjoy the feeling of the more cleanly
players.
Rule 13—If you have an ace and queen,
ilways play out your ace first. It is
pnly good for one trick, and your ad
ersaries ought to be allowed to take a
rick with their king.
Rule 14—Play second hand high on first
■ound. and if you .loose the trick be thank
ul you are rid of a doubtful card.
Rule IS—Alwavs assist vour adversaries
n getting up a “See-saw;" it is rare fun
0 see them scoop in the tricks.
Rule 16—Any mistake that is made by
-our partner should be treated as down
ight stupidity, while your errors are
inly errors of judgment.
Italians in New York.
The census of 1S90 credited New York
vith an Italian population or 39,951. which
las not been reduced in the last seven
.’ears. Mulberry Bend Park borders on
1 representative Italian quarter. In that
•egion Italian signs, Italian shops, and
:talian bankers abound; Italian mothers
end their children, usually busying them- i
elves with something else at the same I
ime; Italian laborers, for the moment i
memployed, sit on -the benches, or talk j
ogether, usually with some apparent ex- !
:itement, in groups in the street. Where
here are Italians In numbers there is
>ound to be animation, and the Mulberry
;trc-et side of the Mulberry Bend Park
s one of the most animated centres of
Slew York.
Most of the Italians in New York are
'ery poor and are ill-housed and coarsely i
ed. and have much apparently to lower ,
heir spirits. But they seem never to
eel any worse than they can help. They
ire industrious and very frugal, and save
noney. Some of it they gamble away,
ind some is stolen from them by swln
Uers, but a good deal stays by them,
dost of them were pinched by poverty
it home before they came to New York,
ind knew worse things than they expe
ience here. That seems to help their
ihilosophv. At any rate, no part of the
>opulation of New York endures hard
ihips with better grace or adapts itself
pore patiently and easily to its environ
ner.t. If there is a chance to be happy,
he Ttalian is prompt to improve it. If
hero is a chance to be miserable, he
icglcets it as far as ho can. His wife
ind his children are like him in these
inrticulars. They borrow no trouble,
vs,.n r'nn sun shines thev bask in it
provided it is not too hot); when it rains
hey get under cover; they have plenty of
ocietv. and like it. and for ■what they
;annot have they work and wait.—Har
