Abraham Johnston died at 3SS South Second street some years ago, leaving a will by which he disposed of an estate valued at $20,000.

Before executing the will he had made a deed of a piece of real estate. The will was admitted to probate and subsequently Abraham J. Pratt, an infant grandson of the testator, began an action against Martha Johnston and others to set aside the deed and the will on the ground that the testator was mentally incompetent. Dr. Hanford of South Fifth street and Driggs avenue was examined as a witness before trial for the plaintiff and yesterday an application was made to Justice W.

44 years old, of UTS Sackett street, was charged to day in the Butler street court with grand larceny in appropriating funds belonging to the estate of Walter A. Walshe, of which he was an executor. Magistrate Tealc fixed the bail at $2,500, and adjourned the case until tomorrow as McElwee demanded an examination. The complaint was made by Richard J.

Lawyer Charles M. Stafford said tne oraer was procured on an affidavit setting forth that Dr. Hanford was a nervous wreck and would be unable to attend the trial. It was somewhat remarkable that counsel should wish to examine an alleged nervous wreck as to the mental condition of Mr. Johnston.

There was nothing to show that Dr. Hanford was unable to leave his house and, according to an affidavit which Mr. Stafford produced, he was in good health.

from Queens and Richmond Boroughs will be at the left of the line. The men of the force have been industriously drilling for the last month, and Captain Allaire, who is at the head of the drill about seven years ago, had never been disposed to part with his interest, however, and it was generally supposed that he would continue the management. Lately Mr. Ken The intercity telegraphic chess match on twelve boards, between representative teams of Brooklyn and Chicago players was started, as scheduled, promptly at 10 o'clock this ing force, thinks that he has got them into day between politics and patriotism. Although he arrived at the Hoffman House so late last night that he did not see many of his political friends his rooms were pretty well filled at an early hour this morning.

During the Memorial Day parade lie had a place on the reviewing stand at the Dewey arch, which is almost exactly in front of the hotel. After the marching was over and the last shrill note of the fife and drum corps had died away he went hack to the hotel for lunch. To night Mr. Hill delivers the Memorial Day oration at the Metropolitan Opera House. Not very much was settled at the early conferences, but it was announced that the officers of the convention had been agreed upon by both sides.

Ex Assemblyman John Norton of Rensselaer County will be the temporary chairman, and Eliot Danforth. permanent presiding officer. Mr. Danforth has been spoken of for the position, but Mr. Norton was only agreed upon to day.

Senator P. H. McCarreu of Brooklyn arrived at the hotel soon after 0 o'clock and had a talk with Mr. Hill during the day. The 6enator would not say whether he had been summoned or not.

and, in fact, did not wish to be quoted. So far as could be learned, however, from other sources, Mr. McCarren was prepared to assure Hill that 57 of the 63 delegates to the state convention from Kings Justice Maddox of the Supreme Court yesterday granted an order to show cause why the owners of the Clermont Avenue Rink should not be prohibited from using it for public purposes, at least until certain alleged necessary repairs have been made that are calculated to strengthen the structure. The order was granted on the application of Building Commissioner John Guilfoyle, and is returnable to morrow, although the rink will be used to day and this evening by the Knights of Columbus in their public installa pretty good shape. He has always been wen pleased with the Brooklyn men, who have been noted for their soldierly appearance on parade.

This year the men from Queens and Richmond will make a fine appearance, small as their number may be. The Brooklyn contingent will, of course, be in charge Deputy Chief McLaughlin, but the place to be assigned to Deputy Chief John nedy's health has been such as to make the work of managing the theater a burden, and for that reason it is said he consented' to part with his lease oh the property, which runs for a period of a little more than thirteen years with the privilege of renewal. The transaction yesterday afternoon was the transfer of the lease by H. C. Kennedy Co.

to Hyde Behman. Mr. Kennedy will leave on Friday for Bemis Lake, where he will spend the summer at his country home. He hopes to regain his health before his return in the fall. He has no definite morning.

The Brooklyn Chess Club, which is famous throughout the chess world as the originator of the series of international cable matches with Great Britain, is in charge of this end of the contest and has its team stationed at its headquarters, 146 Montague street, while in the Windy City the Chicago Chess and Checker Club is in control, the Western team being seated in that club's new rooms at 79 Clark street.

The Chica goans, on the other hand, are old hands at it. having twice beaten Boston by 6 to 5V4 in 1898 and by 8 to 3 in 1899 beside conducting some minor events in a similar way. Thus it is that the managers here in T3 i arc nno ton confident as to the man now control the Grand Opera House, the Star, Park, Amphion. Gayety, Empire and Bijou Theaters, and the new Eastern District house now being built on Graham avenue, which will be know as the Folly.

Mr. Kennedy was seen at the Bijou Theater and both sit on their steeds like old calvary men. Inspector Thomas Druhan is having a new experience. Hitherto in the parades he has been in charge of companies and has walked, but the new' honor of inspectorship has brought its own penalties, which, like all great men, he is forced to pay. It is rumored that the new inspector has not eaten a meal at a table for a week now, but he has acquired a fine seat on horseback, and with Deputy Chief Mackellar, who is his equestrian instructor, is beginning to enjoy a canter over the old Black Stump road or the Hoff examination made by his engineers, with recommendations as to how the building should be strengthened, but that no attention had been paid to the notice.

Commissioner Guilfoyle shows that the roof trusses have settled and that in several places the floor was worn out and weak. He learned, however, that the estate had made certain repairs that made the building more safe, but without consulting the Building Department. These were examined bv the department engineer, and on the strength of his report permission was granted for the use of the rink to night. AMERICANS IN PARIS. this afternoon.

He said his ill neaitn auring the past season had greatly influenced him to accept tne IlDerai oner 01 nyue oc mmuau. "I do not care to state the price paid for the lease, but I will say it is the largest bonus ever paid for a theatrical lease in the United States. Hyde Behman, through their representative, took possession ot the house last evening. I intend to go to my country residence in Maine on Friday, where outcome, particularly since the services of several strong players were not available, notablv those of Frank Marshall, the club champion, whose defeat of Lasker at Paris on Monday is the talk of Metropolitan chess circles No consolation can be extracted from the fact that Marshall, during his visit to Chicago last winter, defeated every one he encountered there, because, after all, they on.y met the same fate, as did, the wond champion the day before yesterday. This, therefore can be no criterion of the collective abilities of the energetic Chicagoans.

iae latter depend largely on their top boards to pull them through to a successful issue, notwithstanding that the lower boards were mainly responsible for the defeat of Boston. County still stood with hLrn in opposing instructing delegates to the national convention for William J. Bryan. There is no doubt on that point. From what else could be learned the ex Scnator is opposed to a fight, if it can be avoided, ana he recognizes that as the situation stands a fight on the question of instructions would be uncomfortably close.

Nearly one third oi the county delegates to the State Convention have been instructed up to date to vote in tavor of sending a tongue tied and bound delegation to Kansas City. This however, does not include the delegates 'from Renneselaer County, the home ot ex Senator Edward Murphy, or from Oneida County, from Oswego, where a resolution to instruct was voted down yesterday or from some of the othe: large counties Tammany under the instructions of Mr. Croker will vote its V)l delegates for Brvan and with a hundred or more Bryan me'n from up the state the convention would be almost equally divided.

Another of the recently promoted men is Inspector Kane of Manhattan, but he rode a horse in the parade last year, so he has had some experience in that line. There will be more than usual interest to Brooklyn people in the parade this year, for it is the second consecutive time that Brooklyn has captured the Rhinelander medal.

This medal is given yearly for conspicuous brav "Visitors Who Have Registered at the New York State Room of the National Pavilion.

Evervthing was in readiness by 9:30 o'clock, the connections with Chicago by means of two direct wires placed at the disposal of the two clubs by the Postal Telegraph Company having been completed and tested.

At that time the preliminary messages were sent and without loss of time the respective lists of players were exchanged. The Chicago team was headed by Sidney P. Johnston, champion of the Windy City, who played in the cable match two years ago and drew his game. He was pitted against Richardson, and a great game is anticipated. By orearrangement.

The object, ap officially explained, is "the regulation of certain conditions which have grown to such proportions during the past two or three years as to threaten seriously the prosperity of the entire business and an' effort will be made to regulate the salaries of certain actors who have taken advantage of the sudden growth of vaudeville and the subsequent brisk demand for acts to inflate their salaries to HATHAWAY'S BOOTY. chael McGuire of the Fourth avenue police station will receive the medal. He saved a number of lives at a fire at 1.3S3 Third avenue at 2:10 o'clock on the morning of October 3. According to calculations there will be about 3.500 men in the parade. Of this number 1.000 will be from the Brooklyn precincts.

Captain Buckholz, the heavy commander of the Jamaica precinct, will not be asked to march nor will Captain Schmitt berger. It is alleged that the reason that Schmittberger will not be allowed to parade is that he testified before the Lexow committee and that on one occasion, before Van Wyck thought of being Mayor of New York, he arrested the present chief executive of the city. Schmittberger did not parade last year but on the year before he was at the head of his company and received an ovation along the line of march. Demian, F. W.

About a month ago Hayes was indicted for grand larceny in the second degree for the alleged theft of a delivery wagon belonging to Christian Zeistness, who lives and has a small store on Calyer street. Following is the story of the crime as told by the defendant on the witness stand. He was a laborer, earning $2 a day when he had work, and eupporting his aged father and mother. In the latter part of April last he decided to go into the peddling business, and he borrowed some money from a sister in law.
