iets ane t CAPT. FYSH NOW + UNDER ARREST Mrs. Fysh Goes to Court with a Lawyer and Grave Suspicions that Mrs. Inez Hyland Did Not! Get $16,000 in Gems. WEPT, BUT FINALLY HAD HUSBAND ARRESTED. He Pleaded in Court and After Altercation Between Lawyers Case Was Put Off Pending Mrs. Hyland’s Examination. Capt. Johr. A. Fysh, who caused the ; arrest of Mrs. Inez Hyland on Saturday bn a charge of appropriating $16, worth of diamonds belonging to hix wife, was himself -placed under arrest In the Jefferson Market Court to-day gn a charge of grand larceny made by his wife. The arrest of Fysh followed a scene §n court in which Mrs. Fysh's lawyer, Hugh 0. Pentecost, tried to urge her| } to have her husband arrested, while| Fysh pleaded with her not to send him| ! to fail. | After Fygh had been locked up Mrs. Fysh told Magistrate Flammer that she ‘would give him until 10 o'clock to-mor- Tow morning to produce her necklace. If he has it then she will not prosecute thim, but if he hasn't she says she will) press the charge: Fysh sent word to his wife that Mrs. Hyland had the necklace and that he! could not get It. \ Wife Was Undecided. | Mrs, Fysh was undecided what course \ to take and finally dissolved in tears. She didn’t want to send her husband to dail as a common thief, she said, but whe did want her necklace. Magistrate Flammer held up the mat- ter while the examination of Mrs, Hy-| jand was resumed. During the examina~ \ tion of Mrs, Hyland, however, Fysh was > ‘go stubborn about answering questions that the Magistrate adjourned the case @gain, and then had a long talk with Mrs. Fysh in his private room. The warrant was Issued after this talk and bail placed at $10,000. ®ysh could not find a bondsman and was } locked up. , Mrs. Fysh came to court accompanied + by her Jawyer, Hugh 0. Pentecost, and with a fixed {dea in her head that her husband Fad not told her the truth when he said he had given Mrs.. Hyland her jewels. She told Magistrate Flam- mer that she believed her husband had appropriated the jewels to his own use, and that she wanted to make a charge of grand larceny against him for the theft of the necklace. Capt. Fysh looked i, stupefied when his wife declared that : vhe was going to have him arrested, but Lawyer Unggr. who accompanied him, quickly sidled up to Mrs, Fysh und eald: Wite Relented. “Madam, do you want to lock your husband up as a common thief?’ “No, I don't," said Mrs, Fysh, “He ts my husband after all, but I don’t want “him to go to prison as a thief.” “Well, that's what'll ‘happen if this thing goes on,” said the lawyer. “But [ want my necklace," faltered Mrs, Fysh. “I don't know how else to get it.” “Sue for it in the civil courts,” said Mr. Unger. “Now, Mrs. Fysh, you're weakening,” put in Lawyer Pentecost. “You said you wouldn't back out and you're back- ing out now,” “Don't be too hard on me, dear,” whispered Fysh to his wife; and Mrs. Fysh looked so uncertain and depressed thay Bartow 8. Weeks, Mrs, Hyland's lawyer, spoke up and sald: “This woman 1s being harassed to Meath, She cannot take the course she wants to with her lawyer and her hus- | Dand whispering these pleas in her ear.” “I'll say what I like to my wife,’ in- terrupted Fysh. “But you cannot steal her jewelry,” suld Mr. Weeks. “I can tweak your big nose for you,” said Fysh, advancing on Mr, Weeks. Weeks Challenged Him. “I don't think you'd better try It,” sald the athletic Mr, Weeks. At this juncture everybody took a hand in the argument. Mr, Pentecost was urging Mrs. Fysh to get the war- rant which the Magistrate was waiting to sign, and Lawyer Unger and Capt. p Fysh were pleading with her not to take | @uch action, Mrs, be dr between these confiicting counsels finally dissolved in , and the Magistrate announced that @ would hold off on the warrant for ‘ysh until he had concluded the ex- ‘amination of Mrs..Hyland. t.

Bs INEZ HYLAND, ARRESTED a eae ‘JACK THE RIPPER’ (Continued from First Page.) on Saturday, but denied that he had been fn the James slip hotel or that he had ever seen the woman known among the sailors as “Old Cob Dock.” ANSWERS ALL DISCRIPTIONS. Totterman fits in every way the minute descriptions given of the man who led old Sarah Martin to her slaughter pen, He has the shiftless, cold, even cruel eyes, the swinging gait of the sailor described by Manager Kelly, the height and the same light, brown hajr and crooked neck. ‘lot- terman is thirty-five years old and says he is single, * Totterman, who will be arraigned in the Centre Street Police Court at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning, said: “I deny that I ever saw the Martin woman or that I was ever in Kelly's Hotel. I came down from Bridgeport Saturday afternoon, and that night I went over to Brooklyn to see the fireworks from the new bridge. I was in bed at 11 o'clock.” . ; At first he denied that he had been in Bridgeport. He admitted it dur- ing the progress of the third degree examination. The salesman in the Bridgeport store who sold the shoes and sweater, and the captain of the Belemo are on their way to New York to have a look at the prisoner, CLEVER DETECTIVE WORK. The arrest of Totterman and the bringing of the crime go close to his door is the result of shrewd, cool and competent detective work. Detective- Sergeant McCafferty, one of Byrnes’s best men and a star of the Central Office for many years, found the name Belemo onthe slip of paper. Associating a sailor with a ship, which seems easy now that it is all over, he looked up the ship register and found that there was a schooner named Belemo. Then inquiry at a shipping office showed that the Belemo arrived at Bridgeport, Conn., last Saturday. Knowing that the shoes and sweater had been purchased in Bridgeport Saturday, McCafferty took the first train for Bridgeport. At 10 o'clock this morning McCafferty was on board the Belemo, and,had learned that Satur- day Totterman had been discharged from the schooner, Inquiry among the crew brought out the fact that Totterman, when in New York, stopped at No. 37 South street. McCafferty hurried to a long- distance telephone and called up Inspector McClusky at Police Headquar- ters, New York. He gave tho Inspector what information he had. McClusky sent Detectives Cronin and Hennessey to South street, and as soon as they entered the door they saw a man with new shoes 4nd a sweater. That was their man and the arrest was easy. McCafferty received the congratulations of all the officials at Police Headquarters, The six witnesses held by the police in the murder were turned over to Coroner Jackson and he held five of them in $200.bonds each and tho sixth, James Kelly, he held in $500 bail on the request of the police, who wish to again prosecufe him on a charge of conducting an immoral! place. ‘The five held in $200 each are Jennie Starr, the housekeepor; John Gleason and John Sanders, the bartenders, Charles Moriarty, the porter, and Emma Kelly, the manager's wife. They were a! sent to ths House of Detention. DETAILS OF THE CRIME. be Slain with the same fiendishness which marked the murders committed by ‘Jack the Ripper” in Whitechapel, London, and by a degenerate of a like type in the underworlds of Chicago, Denver and San Francisco about ten years ago, ‘Sarah Martin, better known as “Cob Dock” in the streets of the Cherry Hill district and along the East River water front, was killed in a resort at No, 9 James Slip. The murderer left possible clues to his identity behind him, but so did the other “Ripping Jacks" whose terrible mutilations of women have shocked the world at various times during the past decade or two, and yet they were never caught, All that is known of Sarah Martin’s movements on Saturday night is supplied by Kelly, his wife. and a Mrs, Starr, housekeeper: of the, resort. According to them, “Cob Dock” was sitting in “the back room” off the sa- loon when a man, apparently a sailor, near forty years of age, about 5 feet % inches in height, heavily built, broad shoulders, with a fair complexion, blue eyes, a light mustache and dressed in a light, overcoat and. black derby hat, entered and asked the wothan and Mrs. Starin to have something to drink. He had the accent of a Swede or Finn. Pretty soon “Cob Dock" gave Mrs, Starin a $1 bill and told her she wanted a room, No, 2, on the MISS PICKENS NOT THERE. ‘Was at Home Instead of at Road Drivers’ Banquet, In the announcement that the Koad Drivers’ Association dinner at Healey's re! rant last Wednesday evening had been deprived of the young women of the been engaged to sing, it wa: Miss Isobel Pickens, the well-known Yerio-comic, was one of the tive. ‘I'he Names of Miss Pickens and the other young women were given to the press by one Mr. Feist, who asserted that ne the talent, Pickens is authority for the sta ent that the use of ber name WAS unauthorized, She says that she second floor, was assigned to them, and the registration referred to was made by the man. ies . Not long afterward the man was seen in the hallway by Mrs, Starin. He was going into the room, Possibly half an hour later Sarah Martin ap- She was given $1.50 in change, and as she took the money she remarked that “the man in there,” nodding toward the room, was-sleeping. Before going batk to him “Cob Dock” drank most of the liquor. WOMAN’S BODY HORRIBLY MUTILATED. So far as known, that was the last seen of the womdn alive outside ‘of tlat apartment, When Mrs. Kelly discovered her yesterday. afternoon she lay on the bed cold in death. There were two stab wounds in tho throat, a slash about three inches deep extending from armpit to armpit and a yertical wound in the abdomen. The flend.had digembowelled the woman and in other ways mutilated her in a most horrible manner, In 1891 a similar murder was committed im the Bast River Hotel, at Catharine and Water streets, two blocks from where “Cob Dock" was slain. A woman known as “Old Shakespeare’ was slashed to death.
