(Bpecial to The Evening World.) POUGHKEEPSIE, April 15.—Convict Frank Davis, who, with four others, es- caped from the insane asylum at Mat- teawan, was captured at Wappingers Falis at noon to-day. Perry 1s the only one now at liberty. Davis was captured in a ravine back of Fannie Baxter's house, on the Hugh- sonville road, leading out of Wapping- er's Falls, Shortly before noon Dr. Remsen, of Wappinger's Falls, went (nto his barn and found Davis there. The convict ked for something to eat, and the doc- tor, suepecting. who he was, asked him if he had not escaped from the asylum, At that Davis took fright and ran out of the barn, going down the Hughson- ville road. Dr. Remsen followed bim, Near the outskirts of the village Davis w six keepers coming up the road, and, recognizing them, he left the road and ran down to the ravine. The Asylum keepers fired several shots, but did not bit him. Davis then surrendered, and the attendants went down into the ravine and took him cap- tive. He offered no further resistance and was taken back to the Institution. It was Davis, it 1s now believed, who robbed the Abbott House at Huxhson- ville early Sunday morning. He was in very bad shape physically, having suf- fered greatly from exposure and could noi have made much resistance had he been disposed to do so. Davis was returned to the asylum at 2.9. The authorities are now scouring the neighborhood of Hughsonville for Perry, who is believed to be the man seen with Davis in a barn there this morning. Chief Humphrey, of the New York Cen- tral detectives, this morning advanced a Getectives, this morning advanced a brand-new theory regarding Train-Rob- ber Perry's movements since his es- cape from Matteawan Asylum. Sald he: “After Perry robbed the American Ex- press Company the first time it was re- ported that he had buried several thous- &nd dollars worth of diamonds and jewelry. somewhere near Little Fal yhich {8 fifty-six miles from Schene tady, Now, if it is a fact that he passed through Schenectady, doesn’t it seem likely that he is bound for the place where he is believed to have the valu- ables secreted” FISHKILL LANDING, April 15—The ¢apture o Patrick McGuire, Ting- leader of the five insane crimina! eacaped from the Matteawan A Wednesday night, and Michael O'Don- nell, one of his’ companions, has re- Rewed the hopes of the asylum authori- ties that Perry, the train robber, will foon also be behind iron bars again. It is admitted, however, that Perry is the most cunning of the five and that he Is likely to fight desperately if cor- Rered. ‘McGuire and O'Donnell were captured by Keeper James Coyle, who thus vin- Qloated himself, he having been one of the keepers who were asleep in, the elation building while Perry, McGuire nd Quigley were wrestling With Keep- Carmody. ‘Coyle has been in charge of a search- ing party since the escape and had his men separated to scour the country Coyle was travelling by himsell. and on Saturday night reached Pine Fiains, on the Newburg and Dutchess Railroad, bout forty miles northeast of Mattea- Wan. fe stayed there all night, and Sunday morning While looking along the railroad ack he saW a man's head extendniz Tough the door of a box car, He ran along the track to investigate, and M Guire jumped from the car and ran.

MANHATTAN FIELD, April 15.—The Jaspers of Manhattan College had their turn at Capt, Davis's men in the Col- legate Trophy series this afternoon, but, contrary to expectations, the attendance was not as large as it has been in the previous college games. The weather, however, which was dark, threatening and chilly, was probably more of cause for this than anything else. 1t was originally intentled and it h been the custom for years for the Jas- pers to open the season with the Glants at home, but this year rain set aside calculations, and as to-day was the only open date before the beginning of the season It was given to them. ‘The col- legians have a very strong team this year, but In to-day's game they were badiy handicapped by the loss of the services of Scanlon, their clever first baseman, His father died yesterday, and he could not play, AS @ mark of re- spect the Jaspers wore bands of crepe on their left arme, Barring accidents, Manager Davis has Ueciled to put Ruste to pitch the opening game next Thursda!

Van Haltren was hit on the leg and took first, Davis pushed a nice single to centre, Fuller fooring and Van Haltren getting to third. The latter scored on Doyle's cracking single to left.

The Inspector Must Defend the Seagrist Charge of Bribery. Justice Barrett Tries the First of Oyer Grand Jury Cases. ‘The case of Inspector Willlam W. Mc- Laughlin, chief of the Detective Bureau, who has been indicted for bribery on | five separate charges, was called for trial in the Court of Oyer and Terminer this morning before Justice Barrett. All of the indictments against Mo- Laughlin charge him with bribery and extorting money from builders, while in command of the Old siip station. ‘They were brought in by the Extraor- dinary Grand Jury March 19 last. ‘The first indictment charges him with accepting $260 from Bullder Walter H. Harrison, Aug. 11, 1891; the second with extorting $75 from Builder Thomas E. ‘Tripler, May 8, 1801; the third with ex- torting $0 from Frederick H.

Inspector McLaughlin “was — on hand early and was one of the first to enter the court room after the doors were opened, Although he was the centre of observation, he showed no ner- vousness or outward anxiety, although his face was pale and wore’ a serious and determined expression.
