On the cross examination tho professor said that he had been previously engaged as professor of music at a young ladies seminary at Philadelphia. A question from Mr. Strauss as to the nature of some trouble ho had had with a woman named Georgiana March was ruled out by the magistrate as not pertinent to the issue.

The proposed bridge will extend from the foot of Hudson avenue, In this city, to Grand street. New York, between Jackson and Scan nel streets.

Tracks will be provided for trolley and elevated roads. Mr. Uhlmann said this morning that he believed the bridge would be built before the now East river bridge, from tho foot oi Broadway, is completed.

It provides that boards of supervisors of counties by a majority vote may improve public roads by laying down macadam, Telford macadam or other stone or concrete material. The bill further provides that when a board of supervisors decides to improve the highways a superintendent of roads shall be appointed who shall he a civil engineer and surveyor. Maps of roads are to be prepared by the superintendent and submitted to the board of supervisors and tho state engineer for approval. The supervisors, through a committee, may enter into contracts for the improvement of the roads.

It is known that all the committeemen have had copies of the report forwarded to them, together with the draft of several bills which are to accompany them. Loader O'Grady, who will introduce tho reports and bills, keeps the documents tightly locked up in his desk and simply smiles blandly wlien questioned upon the subject. The other members ef the committee are equally reticent. One assemblyman when questioned simply said: "When those bills are Introduced it will make the hair of some Brooklynites curl." It can be stated on very good authority, however, that one of the bills legislates the present charities commissioners out of office, and provides for a single (headed commission in their place.

President Rossi ter has had his engineer at work preparing plans. To day they were ready, and Mr.

Rossiter had two interviews with Mayor Wurster this morning in which he submitted them. These plans followed out the lines of tne mayor's suggestions an entirely corresponded with his ideas, excepting that they encroached too far on the' plaza. The plans provided for four tracks and an elevated passageway connecting the car stands with the Brooklyn bridge terminal. The objection of President Howell of the bridge, that such a tunnel could not be connected with the second level of the bridge, or the middle landing of the stairs leading to tho platform, on account of its not being high enough for people to pass under, was met by the costs of improvements are to be assessed as follows: Fifteen per cent, on the town in took her to live with him in this city she two bridges, according to the original plans, made herself useful attending to his pupils, ere to have a common terminal on Grand making appointments for him for music les I street near Sheriff Xew York.

Whether or not Governor Morton would sign such a bill is a question that is yet to be decided. The indications are that the report with the accompanying bills will be submitted next week.

I am sorry for all these men who are put in euch a bad position by the illegal acts of excise commissioners, and I hope that they may obtain civil damages against the men who violated the law, but this Is not the place for them to land at the Brooklyn city hall. The idea was not my own. I adopted it after a visit to London.
