Churchill Off Police Force Now Confronted by Accusa- tion of Neglect of Duty. TRIAL SOON TO BE HELD. Prevaiied In the “Red Light” Dis- trict While Capt. Herlihy Was in Command. Police tnspestor Adam Cross, who was ome of Devery's ieutenants, and later | Cram to Roosevelt. was shrewd enough to become the right- hand man of Police Commissioner Part- | ridge. and who auccerded in getting the scalp of Sergeant John Churchill while the latter was acting eaptain of the Fitth street station, will shortly be put on trial himself on charges of neglect of duty. These changes are now being prepared by Police Commissioner Greene, with tance of some of District-Attor- Jerome's staff. They will be baged largely upon admissions made by the Inspector in the trial of Churchill be- fore Col. Partridge, but they will go pack further than that and will Include matters pertaining to the notorious “Red Light” distriot when Cant. Her- Ihy was In command of that precnct. The friends of Churchill have main- tained that his downfall resulted trom the antipathy of Devery. Cross was In- fluenced, they allege, by Devery, after the former chief was legislated out of office, to keep on Churchill's track until he landed him, ‘They also allege that Col. Partridge allowed himself to be used and, in faot, joined in the conspiracy.

BECAR QUEEN GOES 10 LIND Six Months’ Sentence for Louise Henri, Who Has Victimized Many Rich New Yorkers by False Stories of Poverty. BALKED POLICE FOR YEARS. Made a Systematic Business of Beg: ging—Richard Watson Gilder, Ex- Mayor Edward Cooper and Mrs. 8S. 8. Cox Being Among Those She Hoodwinked. Louise Henri, known to the police as the “Queen of the Beggars,” was ai raigned in the Yorkville Court to-day, and sent to the Island for six months. ‘The police have been searching for her for three years, and it was only yester- day that she was located at No. %0 Henry street, where she lived with her two sisters and @ brother, The “Beggar Queen" and her sisters made a striking picture in court. Louise Honri is fifty-one years oid, but her sisters are older. They qwere clad in rage and were dirty and unkempt. Both sis- ters are demented. ‘They told a long! story in court concerning riches which had been taken from them, Loulse Henri always flow at high game, and consequently letters have been pouring in on the police and the Charity Organization Society from such diatinguished New Yorkers as Richard ‘Watson Gilder, ex-Mayor Edhvan Coop- er, Mrs. David Seligman, W. D. Morgan, Mrs. 8. 8, Cox and C. H. Leet. Notwithstanding a close watch was maintained and a general werning sent out by the police, the “Beggar Queen” managed to baffle the detectives until yesterday. Her method was to call upon rich peo- ple and secure an audience. She is soft spoken and can look and act the part of the gentlewoman when oceasion re- quires, She would relate @ pitiful story of the life led by herself and her sis- ters. They had once been rich, but had been robbed of their estate. Little by little their fortune dwindled away, until dispossess notices had been served and they wore to be turned into the street. A flood of tears and con- yulsive sobbing generally completed the capitulation of the person Louise Henri was interviewing. Invariably she was sent away with clothing and money enough to “pay the back rent.” Sometimes when the vic- tims were particularly sympathetio Louise would call again and replenish the bank roll. The victims, as a rule, were contributors to the Charity Or- ganization Society and wrote to inform them of this ‘very sad case.” Then the cat was out of the bag. Susan B.

RIDING MASTER CALLED A BRUTE William Montgomery, of Dur- land’s Academy, Charged with Knocking Horse Down with His Riding Crop. WOMAN THE COMPLAINANT. Describes Shocking Scene In Tan- bark Ring and WIIl Appear Against the Alleged Horse Tor turer, City Magistrate Barlow, eftting in thé ‘West Side Court on Monday, will render a decision in the case of Mrs. Etta Ti- fora Kirkland, of No. 41 West Seventy fifth street, a soclety woman, who com- plained against William Montgomery tor abusing a horse in Durland'’s Riding Academy. Mrs. Kirkland says that Montgomery, while riding around on the tanbark hit his horse with the butt-end- of a whip and felled him, i Montgomery {s a riding master-in the Academy. This is Mrs. Kirkland’s story: “Tt happened on Friday morning about 10 o'clock, There was a crowd of men and women in the Academy. Mont- gomery was riding a school horse. He is an old rider. I was standing on the block watching Montgomery, when the horse became restless, Montgomery‘s face flared, and. raising his arm, he brought down a heavy crop with all hie might on the horse's head. “Every one heard the whack all over the building, and it's an immense place. ‘The horse fell forward on his head an@ knees and then got to his feet again. Montgomery kept his seat; he's e fine rider, even ff he did bit the harse that way. “I waited for the men near me to sag something. Not one of them spoke. “Montgomery got off the horse and came to the block. I went up tb him and T said: ‘That will do for you, Mont+ romery. I'll see that, you won't strile a horse that way again.’ He started te say something, but 1 would not listen to him. I went in and saw the pro- prietor and he told Montgomery not to do it again. “That was not the first time I had seen this riding master abuse a horse. I remember @ year ago when he struck a horse a terrible blow in almost the same way. I decided I had seen enough when he knocked the horse down and i wrote a letter to the Soolety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.” FORBES WAS EXPELLED.
