Hyde Squandered Large Fortune Ends at Hempstead Poor Farm
New York December 24 Stewart Hyde once wealthy is an inmate of the Hempstead poor farm on Long Island. In ten years Hyde squandered 250000 and after a failed attempt to run a stable he was forced to seek admission to the poor farm. Fourteen years ago his father died leaving him 100000 and other relatives added 150000. He spent his money at the water and lost a fortune maintaining a winning trotting stable. He then bet on races to recoup losses and lost everything. While employed at the track last summer a valuable horse disappeared and was traced to Brooklyn where Hyde had sold it. He was not prosecuted due to the owner being a friend of his father. Now broken in health and pocket he rests at the poor farm.
