Wo personal mystery has so piqued popular cariosity in New KiuriajMl the past few years as has the secret or illiterate "Doc.'' Wilson's power over Philip Moen, the great Worcester millionaire. All sorts of theories have bees printed and discuteed that could explain how a wild, videos, ignorant young man could squeeze hundreds of thousands out of a man who, although immensely rich, has the reputation of keeping tioss purse strings. .Perhaps the most generally accepted idea has been that Wilson is an Illegitimate son of the millionaire. story is that Wilson is the inventor of the barbed wire which has made Moen's fortune. The wildcat theory that, has got into print Iras to the eOeet that the barbed wire we* invented by a Hungarian hermit; that WUeon got possession of the secret, sold it to Mom, and murdered th? Inventor. For several years the millionaire has seemed to be completely at the mercy of Wilson. Thsi latter has wantonly squandered the money, thousands of dollars at a time, as fast as he obtained it from his victim, and he has many times boasted of his power over Moen. He has often said that, he oould, by a word. Mod Moen to Mate prison, and he has delighted in piquing the earioeltf Of thobe who have tried to probe his secret. Wilson's prsMnt salt against the millionaire is one of the most peculiar actions ever brought into court It is an action of oootraot to compel the payment of $118,000 Moen agreed to give him to secure the ssttletoeat Crf three eases of breach of promise which were brought against Wilson in 1881 The cross-examination of the plaintiff was ooncluded He add the sum he had lent Moen was *1*MWX Judge Alitor A Putnam testified tha* -he had settled the WethereU brjaoh of treatise ease far Wilson.

At the time of the loan of *50,000 to Wilson, that party had riven five notes at 910,000 each to Moen. For the $73,000 Wilson had faiade an assignment of a certain patent to Mr. Moen which he claimed to own. ■* Philip L. Moen, defendant, was called. He said: "Wilson stated in 18T5 that he fcnew of something criminal that ha would divulge if I did not give him «100. I told him I could not give him the money then, but did the next morning. In the February following I Motived a letter from him signed fay Lsvi Wilson.

Wo personal mystery has so piqued popular cariosity in New KiuriajMl the past few years as has the secret or illiterate "Doc.'' Wilson's power over Philip Moen, the great Worcester millionaire. All sorts of theories have bees printed and discuteed that could explain how a wild, videos, ignorant young man could squeeze hundreds of thousands out of a man who, although immensely rich, has the reputation of keeping tioss purse strings. .Perhaps the most generally accepted idea has been that Wilson is an Illegitimate son of the millionaire. story is that Wilson is the inventor of the barbed wire which has made Moen's fortune. The wildcat theory that, has got into print Iras to the eOeet that the barbed wire we* invented by a Hungarian hermit; that WUeon got possession of the secret, sold it to Mom, and murdered th? Inventor. For several years the millionaire has seemed to be completely at the mercy of Wilson. Thsi latter has wantonly squandered the money, thousands of dollars at a time, as fast as he obtained it from his victim, and he has many times boasted of his power over Moen. He has often said that, he oould, by a word. Mod Moen to Mate prison, and he has delighted in piquing the earioeltf Of thobe who have tried to probe his secret. Wilson's prsMnt salt against the millionaire is one of the most peculiar actions ever brought into court It is an action of oootraot to compel the payment of $118,000 Moen agreed to give him to secure the ssttletoeat Crf three eases of breach of promise which were brought against Wilson in 1881 The cross-examination of the plaintiff was ooncluded He add the sum he had lent Moen was *1*MWX Judge Alitor A Putnam testified tha* -he had settled the WethereU brjaoh of treatise ease far Wilson.

Upon another oooation Wilson came to Mr. Bice end demanded $10,000, but was refaaed. He then threatened that he had in his pome•ion certain papers which would send P. h. Moen to state prison, bat the money was rein Mr. Mom's declaration it was sengfct to rsoover 979,000 from Wilson, tor wfefah the latter had riven note*. At the time of the loan of *50,000 to Wilson, that party had riven five notes at 910,000 each to Moen. For the $73,000 Wilson had faiade an assignment of a certain patent to Mr. Moen which he claimed to own. ■* Philip L. Moen, defendant, was called. He said: "Wilson stated in 18T5 that he fcnew of something criminal that ha would divulge if I did not give him «100. I told him I could not give him the money then, but did the next morning. In the February following I Motived a letter from him signed fay Lsvi Wilson. This was ths famous 'revenge' letter, wherein he 'Why fat h—1 don't you send that money T " Mr. Moen told in greater detail the story tntlined by his lawyer, but he did not describe the scandal which Wilson originally tftmateoed to public.
