The statement of business on tbo carriageways, in tho opinion ot iho ofllclals, will not mako it advisablo to opou that part of tho structure for wagons without any toll, as tho loss, will bo too groat. President Howell said ibis morning: I would not be at all surprlsod to see the promonado mado free In another month, certainly in two or throo months. Only somo lesral objections of our counsel are dotorrlng us.

Mr. Dykman says wo cannot tako away all tolls on tho promonado without a special act of Leglsin Hire. 7 claim wo can and a number of emlnont lawyers concur with me. The Act of May 14, 1875, providing for the Dri Ige, says: Tho said trusteos shall have power, to fix the rates of toll for persons, vehicles and animals and may fix the faro to bo paid by any passengers on the railroad." Thero is nothing whatever that compels us to charge loll. If we moke tbo promonado freo the total loss according to the statement is but wo havo to maintain tho structuro In repair and polico in any way.

We should get rid of the collectors so iu reality wo would have only the difference betweon tho total rocolptos and tho exponses of collecting, or $11,280.49. 1 boliovo wo can afford to present that to tho people who built tho brldgo and I am euro they would be glad to havo us do A DELAY ON THE BRIDGE.

Attest: D. Ik KOBTIIUI, (Secretary. ft" ui Coroner Henry J.

Hesse telephoned to tho Sovonteenth Precinct Police Station yostorday morning, requesting that a cortaln phyBlctan be sent to tho residonce of Mrs. Mary Nowman, on Fulton Btreot, aud make a post mortom examination on the body of Patrick Nowman, tho horscshoer, who was drowned In his own olstorn early on Sunday morning. Tho disciple of Esculapius solectod was Dr. Adolphue G. Meyeraborg, who rosidos on Butler avenue noar Atlantic.

The physician called at Mrs. Newman's house and told her of his errand. He was informed by tho dead mante relallvos that no such examination would bo allowed. Nothing daunted, howovor.tho doctor examined the body minutely and returned to the pollco station, where he reported to Sergeant Uelmals that the man's neck was brokon nnd that there was a compound fracture of the skull. This put a now light on affairs, and the suspicion that Newman had boon foully dealt with at once gained credenco.

Coronor Hesse was notlfiod of tho fact, and ho responded in person Immediately. Accompanied by Dr. Meyersborg, Coroner IIosso visited tho house on Fulton avenue and proceeded to lmpauelajury. Ho then requested that Dr. Meyersborg bo allowed to mako tho post mortem examination.

"He can't go on with that," said the doad man's slstor. "No, you bet ho can't chtmod In tho deceased's brother and nephew. "Well, bury him if you can," said Coronor Hesse, finding that argument was of no avail. Calling at tho police station, ho requested that some one be float to make the post mortem, as Dr. Meyersborg could not attend, and that he be awarded police protection.

Accordingly an hour later Drs. Norrls and Law, accompanied by Sergeant Chris Relmals and four patrolmen, went to the house on Fulton avenue. After considerable difficulty thoy woro admitted, and while the police stood on guard the two physicians performed their work. They could find no broken neck nor compound fraoturo of the skull, and concluded that Dr. Meyersborg had made a mistake.

They found tho organs of the body In a healthy condition, and that death was caused by drowning. The Inquest will bo hold on Friday evening next. BERRI'S BILL Not Paid by the Casino Company. The Sheriff Tears up the Carpets and the ReceplioH Takes Place "Without Them. Talk of Criminal Proceedings.

The opening of the Fifth avenuo Casino Company's bowling and billiard parlors took placo last night and was ono of tho most remarkable affairs of tho kind ovor hold In this city. Ladles were thero, but they woro not ploasod with the arrangements, as the acre of floor surface was deall tuto of carpets, aud tacks protrudod thomsolves In unwelcome places much to tho dctrlmontof drosses and tho discomfort of gentlemen arrayed In the glory of evening pumps. Owing to tho presonce of these comfort destroyers the efforts of tho braas band and tho music of iho bowling alleys did not mako the opening a completo success. Thoso who had soon tho Casino yostorday morning clothed in its boauty of expensivo carpotiug woro somewhat aurprlsed. The blamo for the whole affair was placod on the broad shouldors of Shorlft Farloy.

As already statod In the Kaole, whon William Dorri'a Sons feared Ihoy would not bo paid tor tho carpets furnished by them to tho Ca sino Company thoir lawyor, Mr. William J. Gaynor, securod a writ of replevin and instructed Sheriff Farloy to satisfy it ou Saturday. That ofilcial went with his men to the Casino aud iutormeil tho managers lhat ho was thore to tako possession of tho carpots. Ho was assured that thoy would bo paid for that day, and in tlio kindness of his hoart ho al lowed them to remain.

Lawyer Wornberg in behalf of tho Casino Compauy, told tho Sheriff that thero was plenty of money in tlio concern with which to moot all Its obligations, and tho Sheriff felt himself securo lu taking formal possession of tho goods. Thoroforo they ornamented tho floor on Sun day. Yesterday afternoon ShoriiT Farley was apprised of tlio fact that a reception was lo ba held iu tho building In llie evening. IIo realized that tho crowd which would bo prosont on the opening night might damngo Iho curpot, by spilling champagne on It. He thon romembered his responsibility to William Dorrl's Sons and forthwith started for iho Casino.

Thoro ho laid tho matter boforo the man agement und asked that an indemnity bond bo given him, for tho use of tlio carpets last evoning as several thousand inventions bad been issuod for tho reception. Tho ShorilT's attention was called to the fact that tho company had alroa.ly given him a bond. "Yes," said tho sheriff, "but I don't think tbnt bond covers the damage. I want $1,000 cash as Becurety deposited with mo or I shall tuko tho goods up now." Tho money could not bo procured and tho sheriff secured fivo trucks aud thirty mon, look up tho carpets Immediately and depasitod them in Kerri gan's auction rooms whero they now aro. Messrs.

William Iivi ri's Sons said thoy had no atntomenl to mako in tho matter, a3 it was oniiruly in tho hands of the sheriff aud their attoruoy. Tho seizuro was attondod by a largo crowd of opoctatord ami sovoral mounted policemen. Tho presence of a portion of tho Mouutoil Sauad gave foundation for a rumor that tho nianagora of iho Casino woro to bo criminally prosecuted. This rumor William Herri's Sous would neither affirm or deny. A "CORONER'S FARCE." An Engine Driver Snitl to SS.ivc Skipped to Arizona.

Mr. Johnson asked for dolay, as the engineer who was runniug tlio ongino which killed Deckel had gone to Arizona. will go on with tho trial if Mr. Koady will allow ino to read Iho engineer's testimony taken at the Coroner's inquest," osUid Mr. Johnson.

You should rather call It a Coroner's ro torted Mr. Koady. It was all ono sided and was virtually no inquiry at nil. The engineer will probably nover return to tho as ho killed many other pcoplo on the same line. Ho should rather bo in tlio Penitentiary." "Counsel ought not to como into court on a motion like tbla and chargo a rospoctnblo corporation with carrying ou tho businoss of murdor," said his' Honor.

Contemplating the Establishment of a PrlTato Institution for the Ipsane The Details of the Projeot Not Yet Arranged.

Dr. John C. Shaw, tho Medical Superintendent of the Flatbush Insane Asylum, contemplates retiring. Tho roason given Is that ho, with two or three others, will organize and carry on a private aoylum, whore ihe wealthier classseB of patients may obtain special treatment. It is said that this stop, If taken, will bo in consequence of a feeling on tho part of tho doctor that his official head Is danger of dropping Into tho basket.

It was positively stated up town this morning that ho would hand in his resignation beforo the first of tho year. The discharge of his favorite clork, Shannon, a few woeks ago, Is said to have caused tho doctor's feeling of insecurity to grow rapidly, until now he Is ready to stop down and out as soon as he can look around and make satisfactory arrangements for tho future. In connection with the name of Dr. Shaw, that ex President of tho Board of Charities Commission A. II.

W. Van Siclen, of the Twenty sixth Ward, is also mentioned. Mr. Van Siclen was seen by an Eagle reporter tbls morning at his residence, corner of tho Jamaica Plank road ana Slegel avenue. He said In reply to quoatlons that ho had uot boon invited to Join In any such enterprise, and that he did not know that the Ideas of Dr.

Shaw had assumed positive shape. UI have not seen Dr. Shaw more than twice since loft the department, and I do not think that I have spoken to him in referenco to the matter. One day I was lu Iho drug store near here when a phy Blclan asked me what I thought of tho pecuniary chances of a private asylum should one be started. made him some answer that I do not romembor.

Wo agreed that In order to mako It a success a physician of prominence and experience Bhould be at tho head of it, and Dr. Shaw's name was mentioned. From what I know of hlra I think that he would be eminently fitted to take charge of such on Institution. I do not think that Mr. Shannon would be interested in the enterprise further than holding a position.

lie has no capital to Invest, as far as 1 know. He always had tho full confidence of Dr. Shaw. As to myself, I cannot say what I would do. If I thought it a good thing, aud I was offered an interest, I should probably accept, but, as I said, I know nothing of Dr.

Shaw's plans. If I wag offered a position, and it suited me, I would accept, as I havo nothing particular on hand now. On election day Mr. Shannon mentioned the sub Joet to me, and Judging from what ho said I do not think that things haTo assumod tangible shape. In my Judgment, tho best location for tho asylum would be In tho suburbs or Just across tho line in Queens County.

It would never do to locate it so far from the city that tho friends and relatives of tho pationts could not conveniently call ou them often." MUST PAY HIS WIFK $4 A WEEK. Jnines Laynaugh, of Van Brunt and Wol cott streets, was arrestod last Saturday morning upon a charge of abandonment preferred by his wife, Annie, as dotallod In tho Eagle at tho tlmo.

Ho also threatened to do all sorts of things to his wlfo, so sho says, If sho dared to appear against him In Justice Mns sey'B court this morning. Nevertheless she did ap pear against him aud proved that ho did not give hor any support.

He was put under bonds In the sum of $400 to pay his wife $4 a week. BOILING WATER Used in a Fight Burglar. With a A Domeslio Takes a Hand in tho Encomi tcr The Marauder Captured by Detective.

A Stranprer Who Says Ho is the Genuine Tichborne Tho Proceedings in the Case or Cards. The individual Trlio says ho is Sir Roger C. Tichborno, alias Cbnrlos Curtis, eat In tho rooms of llie United States Commissioner this morning, surrounded by a host of ropoctore, court officials, pension officers and lawyers, gathered to wltnoss his light with the Government on the charge of falsely Impersonating the votoran Charles Curtis. Tichborno, Orion, Curtis or whoever ho Is. is a fine looking man with a strong, florid face, the forehead of which has been turned into a deeply plouguod Cold by tho universal husbandman, care.

He has iron gray hair, worn thin on tho top of his head, and an Iron gray moustncho and goatee, the latior being full and wavy. Ills features aro well formed, and tho fnco on the whole Is well worthy of a Toteran. The figure is erect but not stout. Ho woro gold bowed spectaclos and was clothed from head to foot In now broadcloth. It was 10:30 whon United States Deputy Marshal James Biggart escorted the prisoner into court, and Deputy Commissioner Alton look bis seat United States District Attorney Benedict conducted tho case for Uncle Sam, and Lawyer Tobbetta appeared for the prisoner.

1. M. Ward, ohief law clerk of tho Tension Office at Washington, was the tlrst wltnoss called, lie ieitlQod that ho had mado tho complaint against the prisoner under tho name of Charles CuriiA alias Arthur Orton, alias Uoger C. Tichboine. lie Tras present when tho warvaut was exccutod.

Objected to by Lawyer Tobbotts uutll ho had road the complaint. Witness, continuing, said tbnt Special Exnmlnor Paul Schopp was also present when the warrant was executod. He tlrst saw Curtis at his residence, 108 KaSBau stroet, on Saturday afternoon last, aud hod some conversation with him. Discoverlos made at Washington tendod to provo that Curtis' claim was fraudulent aud ho had eomo on to sccuro his arrost for obtaining money under false pro tencos. Alter sooiug Curtis ho got tho warrant irom the United States Court in Brooklyn and lnr tho ovouing again procooded to 103 Nassau stroet In company with Mr.

Schopp. Thero ho found Curtis nnd requested mm to como to tho United States District Attorney's office to answer some questions about his pension. The prisoner camo as requested and wa.s arrestod and committed to tho custody of tho Marshal. Witness had a convoreniion with the prisoner, who said that ho was Edward Jiogor Ttchborne, and was waiting for tho arrival of llio I.ydian Monarch from England. A lady was to arrive by that vessel bringing him nows of his possessions.

l'erhaps ho would go back to Kiiglaud with hor to look after his estatos. Though claiming to bo Sir ltoger Ttchborne, tho prisoner also clalmod that ho was Charles Curtis, having served in tho war under that alias. At this point the prosecution put lu evidence a copy of tho prisoner's certificate of discharge from the army. The detenso acknowledged it to bo a true copy.

Ward, you say Hint you mado out this complaint against the prisoner undor tho name of Charlos Curtis Jlr. Ward Yes. Lawyer Tebbotts Will you look over tho complaint again, please, aud soe whether tho nanio of Charlos Curtis occurs at all Jlr. Ward looked the paper over and said: It has boon made out against Arthur Orion, alias Hoger Tichborno. I believed at tlio tlmo that tho prisoner was tho Tichborno olai mam, porpouating tho votoran, Charlos Curtis, for the euke of tho pension.

Here tho hearing was p.djournod to await th arrival of other witnesses. There is an apparent discrepancy betwoon tho rlatement on tho faco of the certificate that tho prisoner was mustered out and tho statomont in tho oath of Identity that ho was discharged by reason cf wounds incurred in battle. Veterans present in the courtroom declared, however, that this meant nothing: certificates of discharge wero mado out byreglmonts when tho prisoner got his, and tho fact that no wounds wero moiuioued did not oven eorvo as an intimation that ho had no wounds. Cor poral Tanner's certificate is mado out in procisoiy the same form, though both his legs woro tnoi ou. Down stairs, In tho United States Marshal officii, Curing tho time that the trial was on, sat a man who was tho subjoet of a groat deal of curiosity.

This man was spectacled nnd wrapped like an Englishman traveling in cold woatnor. Beside him sat a well dressed, intelligent looking lady, who was still young. The rumor spread that this man was tho other Tichborno claimant Do Castro, alias Sir Roger Tlch borne.

Eoportors who woro in England during tho famous trial clalmod lhat thoy rocognizod him. An Eagle reporter told him that suspicions and ru mors wore abroad ahd ho said "Yes, sir, I am tho genuine Tichborno" Whon asked, "do you travel under tho name of Tichborno ho ropliod, "I do, that la my name and I never travelod under any otuor excopt lu Austral whon I auswored tho name of Castro for a THE CHICAGO STRIKES.
