The action was begun in the Su- preme Court several months ago, but the proceedings were conducted so se- cretly that the facts have only just be- | come public. GEORGE LAW. ——— shite renee It appears that Miss Mack met George \zaw about two years and a half ago ‘atadinner, Their acquaintance ripened Guring the following Summer, which ‘the young lady passed with her mother at Cold Spring Harbor, L. I., where Mr. Law's yacht Veto was to be seen two or three days every week moored in the offing. He gave several entertainments ‘on his yacht in honor of Miss Mack, to whom it was then reported he was en- gaged to be married, and she was one of a party whom he took on a cruise to Pleasure Bay and Long Branch in the same Summer. The Wedding Day Fixed, It is even said that the wedding day was fixed, but that for some unknown reason it was postponed from time time until Mr. Law's attentions suc denly ceased. The following year, in September, 14, Miss Mack read of his marriage to Miss Alga Smith at the Gerard Hotel. Mise Mack {s a talented amateur mu- aician, having studied In the conserva- tories of Paris and Leipsic, and her friends say as a pianiste she is the equal of many professionals. Her mother ts well kown In literary circles as a writer and lecturer, It is intimated that during the rarly part of thelr acquaintance Miss Mack, who wanted to raise funds to complete her musical education, applied to, Mr. Lew for a loan on some real estate left by her father, He would not do this, but loened her the money she nceded on + her note. Marricd a Friend of Hin Fiancee, Miss Alga Smith, whom he has since married, was one of Joseph:ne's intimate friends she introduced to Mr, Law at Cold Spring Harbo After Miss Mack er's faithiessness and ill a loug time. months before yiel friends, and then by for breach of promise ‘The house where Mrs, Mack and her daughter live, Is one of a handsome block of four-story brick dweilings on the south side of Thirty-fourth street, three door from Fifth avenue. ‘A colored maid answered the ring at the door-bell to-day and said that neither Mrs, Mack nor Miss Mack was at home, “Are they out of town?" “1 don't know where they are. They went out and I don't know when they will return.” She refused to answer further ques- tions. George L discovered her lov- she ated as prost hesitated Ing to the advic 1 the $150,000 suit gainst Mr. Law. w Not im the City, George Law's house at Fifth ave- nue is closed. At the office of the Efghth Avenue Railroad Company it Was said Mr, Law had not been in town tor six weeks. , “Is he cruising on his yacht? “I do not know where he is," replied | the official in charge, “and if 1 did I would not tell you.” Lawyer Francis L. seen at the Hotel Waldorf, ady that the action was begun six ago, and that he and Col. Ingersoll had been retained as counsel, A) Wer had been served by Mr. Low's attorney, which concained simply a general denial to the formal charges of the complaint. Bince then the matter had lain dormant Mr. Wellman thought it inight possibly come before the courts at the Decem- ber term, but was uncertain about “I do not feel at liberty to say any- thing more in regard to the case,” he said, ‘and must decline to discuss an; of the statements that have been pub- lished in connection with it.” From other sources it was learned that Miss Mack had been engaged to Mr. Law for nearly a year. It wa only broken off aftcr she learned of when tted onths Wellman, a his marriage to her friend, Miss Smith. All her friends knew that Mr. Law was her accepted suitor. Her Heart Is Almost Broken. She ts a git of gentle and innocent disposition, modest and shrinking, and almost childish in her manner, and was thoroughly bound up in her love for her art until she met Mr. Law and be- ceme engaged to him. Then her devo ticn to her afflanced husband seemed to absorb all her thoughts, Although he seemed to become indifferent towards her during the latter part of their en- agement she was loyal to him, and when sho learned of his sudden mar- riage, through the newspapers, it Is sald the news almost broke her heart, and she has not been hersélf since that time, Mr. Law, who ts forty-eight years old, 's a son of the late George Law, who | Ferry Company for many years. eded to the He office held by his her at his death, Although he stud- ied law and was graduated at Colum- bia, he did not practice his profession, hut devoted most of his time to pleas- ur King. He has the reputation of spending money ilke a lord. A Patron of Pugilism. He {s also a generous patron of pugilism, and was a particular admirer of the late Joe Coburn, who is said to have earned several diamond rings by letting Geo.xe Law knock him down tn bouts with the glov Mr. Law is a tall, well-built, fine looking man, and when younger was proud of his accom- Plishments as a boxer. Among his exploits as an open-handed entertainer was the famous trip. to Saratoga in 1888, when he chartered a special car and ‘took a party of sport- ing | friends, including “Jere” Dunn, tJoe" Coburn, Cap.

Dropped 882,000 at Faro, Mr. Law has always been known as a savy Kambler, In July, 1889, he dropped ‘at faro'in Long Branch. — Gen Spinola used to boast of a poker game in which Law lost $40.00, and at_an- other time he was rumored to have been out $30,000) after an evening at Pnil | 8 $1.00 on wine In the Tenderloin single night. To the surprise of all who knew him, Mr. Law married Miss Olga Smith last year. He had been reported to be en- Kaged to Miss Smith's mother, years before, but the affair had been broken off by'an elopement with another man, During the past six years Law's en- gagement to numbers of women has been announced and as often dented, Law's father made him as a boy work as a horse-car driver. After George Law, sr.'s, death the young man began to burn’ money. He was so popular among west side toughs that it was sald he could have laid drunk in a Hell's Kitchen gutter with his pockets full of money and never lose a cent. Since his marriage he has dropped out of sight. (a RTED HIS CHILD. George R. Rogers Remanded for a Searching Inquiry. George R. Rogers, who was Indicted Aug. 14 and brought from Morristown, N. J., was arraigned before Recorder Goff for sentence this morning. Rogers had pleaded gullty to the charge of de- serting his adopted son, John Milton the Continental Hotel three ago.

He believed the Bo- ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty’ to Children. would take care of him. Supt, Jenking, of the Gerry Soctety, told Recorder Goff this morning there was reson to believe the little boy was really Rogers's child by his first wife,fand that he had admitted it. Agent Agnew had gone to Windsor, to gee the child's grandmother, Shephard, and learn the real re: r abandoning the child. An uncle ‘rom Norwich, Conn., who brought the hoy to this city for'its father, claims not to know, In view of these facts, and to give Agent Agnew time to make an inquiry, Recorder Goff remanded Rogers again for sentence on Aug, 28. — Magistrate Crane Thereupon Dis- arged the Man She Accased.
