FEB V. UUBB LLLIX EE EH OOO OOO I' I' t) GO YY ooo ooo cu Three Ilowdien Who Were Roughly Handled by a Woman. Yesterday afternoon two young men well known in tho classic regions of Smoky Hollow, called upon Mr. William Smith, of 51 Eiuinett streot. Their names aro John Madden, of 31 Willow place, aud Patrick O'Malley, of 367 Hicks street.

Their errand waa to intorcedo with Mr. Smith ia favor of a young man who is generally known aa Burly" and wbo was arrested on Saturday aftornoon on a chargo of assault made by Mr. Smith's wife. Thoy made a very eloquent appeal in their friend's favor and thoir efforts wore rewarded by Mrs. Smith's promising not to press tho charge.

To celebrato this amicable arrangement it was proposed that a can of beor should be sent for. Tbls waa done, and tha operation repealed a great many times. Under the influence of the seductive fluid tho party became very boisterous, and it dawned upon them that it would bo an excellent idea to go down stairs and turn Reynold Rylauder, wbo keeps tho saloon on the ground floor, out of tho houao. The suggestion waB immediately actod upon. Thoy burst open tho door of Mr.

Rylander'B apartments, and finding him at dinner knocked him down and amused themiolves by jumping on him. His wife, a stalwart lady, weighing about 180 pounds, soon changed the aspect of affairs. Picking up a carving knife she advanced upon her husband's assailants who fled precipitately closely followed by Mrs. Rylandor. Sho Boon overhauled Smith and dexterously inserted Itho knife in his back, and taking him by the collar threw him down stairs.

O'Malloy next fell into her clutches and got a Blight Btab in tho head, whilo Madden, as ho niBhed by her terror stricken, warded off a blow with his arm, tho knife cutting a gash about two inches long In his wrist, Mrs. Rylander thon quietly returned to her own part of tho house and attended to her husband's Injuries which were not serious. The wounda of Smith, Malley and Madden were dressed at tho Long iBland College Hospital. Thoy were all placed under arrest ou a charge of mado by Mr. Rylandor.

In turn thoy charged Mrs. Rylander with felonious assault aud she was locked up in the Third Precinct Station House. All the parties concerned wero arraigned beforo Judge Bergen this morning who dismissed tho several complaints. NO EXODUS From Brooklyn on Account ol" Cholera. TSo FalliBf? Off in Rents and BaUding Op eratioag Actire All Over the City Real Estate Dealers who Take Rosy Views About the Situation.

The statement having been made that in consequence of a cholera ecare, Brooklyn peoplo wero getting ready to leave tbo city iu largo numbers and that as a result, rents were falling off and the demand for real estate decreasing, Bovoral gontlemeu who have real estate offices in tho neighborhood of the City Hall volunteered tho information thiB morning that if such a scare aud such a threatened exodua exieted they were blissfully ignorant of them. Mr. Leonard Moody beamed upou a questioner who questioned him upon the subject. He eaid "I've never sold more houses and havo never been busier. To day thero are vory few houseB loft for sale in the Twenty third and Twon fifth wards.

Lots are being sold to builders, hand over fist, In that section something like a hundred houses havo just beon etaitcd, and everything la sold as fast as it goes up. 1 havo sold over thirty houBeB 1Mb Spring, If theso things indicate a declino in tho real estate market then I want It to keop on declining, for that kind of decline suits me first rato. As to cholera I think that if thero is any scare on the scoro of it it is groundless. I havo had a talk with Health Commissioner Raymond, who deprecates tho idea that we aro to have aiiy choleia in Brooklyn this Summer, and there ie ample ground for his disboliof in the liability of this city to Buffer from epidemic, There are but few cesspools in tho city now, and those that are remaining will be filled np in time. All houses now constructed havoovory modern improvement and our system of sewerage is oxcelleut.

I tell you, Brooklyn ie tho healthlfiBt city Iu this country yoe, eir, in tho world." Mr. Charles A. Seymour said: "We havo suffered nothing from auy declino in real estato business, if any such declino has takon place. Real estate that Is sold now a days in Brooklyn Is sold to bring somo ready cash to people who aro in need of it, and not because of any unsanitary condition of this city or any fear of epidemic. There aro going to be somo very heavy sales before long.

In ten yoara I do not think that thero ha3 been so Rood a tono in tho real estate market as at present. When tho elevated road ia done you may look for a big boom in real estate." A representative of ft M. Cbauncey Btaled that rents had boon a little slow and Bales not quite as brhik as usual. A cholera scare might, he thought, be responsible for such a etate of things. In the office of Mr.

John F. Jamea the Information was given that there was not mucb decline in real estate business excopt in such aa affected high priced bouses, but with thiB cholera mieht havo nothing to do. Houbos renting for less than $700 were readily disposed of. NO CLOUD ON THE TITLE. Tho Rockatvay Hotel Property Confounded With the State's Claim.

The statement was made in ono of yesterday's New York papers that the proposed ealo of tho great hotol at Rockaway Beach to a Boston corporation headed by Mr. Silas Gurney, of tho Tremont Houso, had fallen through by reason of a cloud on tho title. To an Eagle reporter Prosldout Oakley, of tho Now Y'ork and Rockaway Beach Railroad, said this morning that there was no foundation for the report, Mr. Gurney is in Now York to day carrying on tha negotiations with every prospect of becoming tho owner of the extensive seashore property.

Fire Caused bj a Defective Flue The Structure Damaged the Amount of $3,000 Prompt Action by the lady Managers Prevents Serious Accidents. The Building Rendered Uuilt for Occupation. While tho children who ate inmates of the Howard Colored Orphan Asylum, ou Dean street near Troy avenue, woo at supper last evening, a cry of fire wbb raised. One of the elder children, while on her way from the dining room to the dormitory floor, found tbo upper corridor full of smoke. Tho alarm was givon, aud instantly the eighty six children wero all panic stricken.

The dining room Is upon the first floor of tho building, and it so happened that at the time tho liro waa discovered evorv one was In the lower part of tho Institution. Tho ohlldren in their terror made a blind rueh Into the lower ball, and in so doing somo of tho smaller ones wero knocked down and tramplod upon, but nouo wero hurt beyond a few slight bruises. Mrs. L. A.

Cooper, the lady iu charge of the institution, at once eummoncd her assistants, Mrs. Emma Augusta Johnsou and Miss G. Cooper, aud hurriodly instructed them to got tho children under control. Tho different exits leading from tho hall into which tho dining room opened, wore guarded, and Mrs. Cooper succeeded in quieting tbo children in leas than a couple of minutes.

They wero thon marched out into the grounds which surround tho building, and bo well were they managed that every one was outside before tho Haines were seen.

Within half an hour tho fire wos out, gAt ono timo Chief Nevina thought of sending out a second alarm, but as soon as ho discovered that there was no person in tho building ho changed his mind, as the forco of men he had on the first call was sufficient to cope with the work necessary to bo dono.

Although the streams of water wore directed with a tiew to do as little damage to the building as possible, the fire waa so located that each floor was more or less flooded, and the reault was that the promises wero unfit for occupation.

Guarding Against the Cholera A Court House Squabble. The progress made with the bill for the establishment of a "municipal police court" Is such that Mayor Low tlnds It uecoasary to make a publlo declaration against it. This measure 1b in the interest especially of John Peterson and William R. ATcGuira, Democratto politicians of the Eighteenth aud Twenty first wards, respectlrely. Mr, Peterson, who is a lawyer, expects to be appointed the Justice under tho bill, while Mr.

MeGuire's interest 1b explained by the fact that he proposes to bo the clerk of the court. One of the argu monts made in behalf of the bill Is that in th9 event of ltB becoming a law, the Justice will, among other things, take charge of all cases of violation of sanitary ordinances, aud in that way relieve the other Justices of what is a great part of their work. Health Com. missioner ltaymond is represented as being in favor of the bill tho fact is, be is oppoBod to It. A year ago he might have favored it, but since then, satisfactory arrangements have been made withjthe Police Justices of the city to try all sanitary cases.

Mayor Low to day stated his objections to the measure as follows So far as I know," said ho to an Eagle reporter, it Is in all essential respects a personal bill. There Is no demand for it, nor any evidence of need for It ex oept the pressure at Albany in its behalf rrom those who are reported to be personally interested in Its pas sago. When tho bill wsb first introduced I gave It no attention because it seemed tome Impossible that the Assembly would attempt to pass an unnecessary bil1 this year which was vetoed last year by Governor Clove land. Whent firBt appeared in tho Assembly this your it waa recommitted to the Committco on Cities on motion of Afleomblyman Myers in order to make the Mayor, Controller and Auditor tho appointing power instead of tho Mayor. At this point I telegraphed and wroto to General Barnmn, tho Chairman of the Committee on Cities, aud Assemblyman Taylor, protesting against tho passage of the bill in any shape but, notwithstanding that, it haa been reported favorably to tho Assembly.

So far as the appointing power is concerned in the bill as it stands to wit, tho Mayor, Controller and Auditor no more flagrant attack upon tho prlnciplo of our charter, wnloh makes tho Mayor tho appointing power for the city, has beon attempted since I have been in office. I believe that If thoro is any one thing upon which the people of Brooklyn are determined it is that the principle of our charter shall bo strictly adhored to iu this respect, and I have no doubt that the gentlemen who support any departure from that prinoipio will have to account to their couBtituonts for thoir attitude in that regard. It will bo my part, in case of neod, to see that tho community doeB nol forgot those who are unfaithful to the system of our present ohartor. But, quito apart from the appointing power, tho bill Is a bad one and undeserving of support on its merits. At this very session of the Legislature tho jurisdiction of the existing police justices has beon oulargod at their own request, and it la Idle to pretend that a now police court, whether stylod Municipal Court or known by any other uamo, is demanded by the interest of tlio public.

Health Commissioner Raymond has written to Assemblyman Taylor a lotter in which ho says "I am iuformed that at Albany tho Department of Uealth is quoted as being desirous of tho establishment in this city of a municipal court for tho trial of violations of the Sanitary Codo. Should such a statement be made in your hearing be kind enough to dony it in my behalf aud to eay that, so far as this dopartment Is concerned, there is no need of such a court, as the arrangements which have been made with tho police justices are, ia all respects, satisfactory to mo and am such as will rosult in a prompt enforcement of sanitary violations." TIIE UNDERGROUND TELEGRAPH LAW. Mayor Low said this morning that ho intended, by arrangement with Senator Daly, to sond to Albany an amendment to the Senator's bill providing for tho appointment of a commission to carry out tho provisions of tho underground wire law. Tho Mayor, who has beon in communication with Mr. Daly.

on the subject, said that, whatever may be tho merits of tho controversy as to thickly settled parts of tho city, the law, aa it now stood, prevented the authorities from giving proper security against fire to the thinly settled parts of tho city. Tho effect of the law haa beon to prevent thorn from extending the lire alarm system. Ho thought that the Daly bill, with such an amendment as ho should suggest, would result in some practical Blop in the desired direction. PREPARING FOR THE CHOLERA. For nearly six months there has boen before an Al dermanlc committco a draft amendmout to the Sanitary Ordinances, sent in by Health Commissioner ltaymond, regulating tho hide, ekin and rag busiucss.

The opposition to it haa been so groat that to day tho Commissioner sent to tho Board a note, iu which he suggested the following aa a substitute: No porson engaged in buying, selling or Btoring rags, or who has become possessed, by purchaso or otherwise, of rags for the purpose of selling tho same, sball store or keep tho samo within tho llmitB of tlie City of Brooklyn without first obtaining a written permit so to do from the Commissioner of Health of said city, the torma and conditions of which permit Bhall be strictly compiled with by tho person obtaining the same." THE COURT EOOM SQUABBLE. Last Monday the Aldormauic Committee on Lands and Buildings was discharged from tho further consideration of the proposition to Iocato Justice Naeher In a building owned by the city adjoining tho Sixth Precinct Polico Station, instead of Humboldt Hall, at Humboldt street and Montrose avonuo, where ha now is, and for which place tho city pays 900 rent. Tho Mayor has written to tho Board asking It to rocon eider its action of last week. Ho says tho justice wants to go to tho station house building aud that his removal thither will save the city t'JOU a year. Tlio adds that tho city should uso its own property as far as possible.

A BROOKLYN LADY'S EXI'ERIEXCE A 1110113 Hie ICcvuliiiioiiiHlai at Panama. Among tho passengers of the steamer Colon, of tlio Pacific Mail Steam hip lino, which arrived in this port a few daj ago, was Mrs. Frederick L. Holt, of No. 97 Monroe street, who has been staying at Colon, Panama, with her father.

Iu speaking of the trouble thoro she says tho residents suffered much at tha hands of the revolutionists, many of them haviug their houses burned down and also being in danger of being shot at. Ou tlie block on which her parents reside, bIio saw two men shot down on their own balconies, and to the host of hor knowledge they wero Americans. A regular fusilado was kept up at her parents' rosidonce, aud trunks and bedsteads had to be piled up against the doors and windows. When her parents escaped to tho man of war Galena thoy had nothing but an almost empty trunje. On the night aftor thoy visited tho house, but wero horrified at soe ing so many dead bodios lylug In tho street and accordingly sought the steamor again, Mrs.

Holt's father and mother are at Kingston, Jamaica, aud sho says at least fifty passengers, moat of them Americans, were on the Galena, many of them with hardly any bag ago. THE MARINE BANK SDIT. Bank President InIi in tbo New York Supreme Court. A porson looking at Mr. James D.

Fish, the convicted bank presidetit, as ho sat in tho Supreme Court Circuit, Part 3, in New York to day, would not for a moment imagino that he had just been brought into court from Ludlow street Jail In the custody of an officer. Mr. Fish sat bosido the lawyers' table, reading a newspaper, for a long timo, apparently aa unconcerned a person as there was in tho court room. He had boon brought into court, before Judge Rufus W. Pcckham, of Albany, upon a writ of habeas corpus ad testificandum, for the purpose of appearing as a witness in the suit of Samuel W.

Bingham and Carolino F. Moulton, administrator and administratrix of tho estate of Goorgo S. Moulton, against the Marine National Bank and Walter S. Johu son, aa receiver, to recover $50,955.22 upon a certificate of deposit alleged to have been issued by the bank to tho plaintiffs. Mr.

Bingham is a resident of Connecticut and tho cashier of tho Willimantic Batik there. The plaintiffs are represented by John B. Passon, Hubert Sowoll and William 8. Wolf, while John Donlin and Charles E. Miller opposed In tho interest of tho defendants.

No witnessed wore called on tho part of tha plaintiffs, and tho only evidence submlttod by counsel was the fact of the appointment of tho plaintiffs as administrator and administratrix of the estate of Mr, Moulton the fact that a demand waa made for tho payment of the cortificato of deposit, and that it was not paid, and the certificate itself was also put In evidence. The plaintiffs thon closed their case. The defense, as atatodby tho counsel for the plaintiff, is that this certificate was issued without consideration, that it has been paid aud discharged, and that Bingham, ex plaintiff, and James D. Fish, who was the president of the bank, consplrod together fraudently, without the bank having received any monoy, to issue this certificate of doposit to enable thorn to uso it aa a cover for Bingham to transfer profit by an investment of tbo funds of tho estate in the business of or aa a loan to the copartnership of Grant aud Ward. The examination of witnesses is still in progress.

Rumor haa had it also that the wicked Colonel Bob Ingersoll would seek recreation at the samo timo and in a similar manner, and that the two opponents would meet on foreign soil to engage in further talk about lufidolity. When questioned this morning, Dr.

Talmago Baid Yes, I am about determided to go abroad early in July, aftor the cloao of the Tabernacle for tho Summer vacation, to remain until September. My wlfo and daughter left for England ten days ago and aro, I expect, in London to day. I am to join them somowhero in 8witterlaud. In the meanwhilo they will probably visit the south of Franco and Italy before the weather becomes too heated. Will you lecture while abroad? Colonel Iugersoll ia announced to go, and should ynu Doth chance to lecturo It would be an Interesting coincidence." At thiB query and reference to his eloquent rival the Tabemaclo pastor Indulged lu smllo of unusual breadth and replied 14 No I ahall not lecture.

I am going abroad to find rest. I havo takon none for more than thirty yean, aud I want to get acquainted with my family.

If oholera was to rago there this Summer it would have already manifested itself.

Indeed, all tho signs point to a period of unBual healthfulnoss. The precautions taken against tho disease will tend to the general good.

Mayor Low sent the following to the Common Council this aftornoon Mayou's Office, City. H.u.r,, linooKLVs, April 18, 1883. To the Honorable, the Common Council Gentlemen I return without my approval the following resolution or April 0 touching tho change of route of the Brooklyn Elevated Railway lie it Hrsulveil, That the Mayor and Common Council ol tho City Brooklyn, in pursuance of the power vested by an act of the Legislature of the Stato of Now York, entitled 'An Act to incorporate tho Brooklyn Sdont Safety Railway, for the purporo of providing rapid transit through the City of Brooklyn, Kings County, to Woodhaven, in the Town of Jamaica, in tho County of Quoena, in the Stato of New York, and to provido for constructing aud operating a railway passed May 20, 1871, being chapter 585 of tho Laws of 1H74, and by tho various acts ainenda tery thereof, herebv name the following streets and avenues as being 'more suitable for carrying out tho objects contemplated in tho ere ction (if tho elevatod railway mentioned In said a ts that is to ay, tho said company shall relinquish and not build that portion of aid railway commencing at or near by tho corner of lludion avenue and York stroot; thonce along Hudson avenue and Yolk street thonco aloua Hudson avenue to Plymouth stroet; thence along Plymouth street to Main street; then along Main Btreot to Water street, and in lieu thereof may build from the intersection of Y'ork and Washington slreets, along York street to the intersection of York and Garrison Ftre ts; (honco northwesterly and along tho northeast sido of the New Y'ork aud lirooltlyn Bridge over property belonging to tho City of Brooklyn to Mereeiu street theneo across iu street and over property belonging to tho New York a'td Brooklyn Bridge and over private properly to Front street; thence across Front sticet ami D.iclt and over property belonging to Baid New York and Brooklyn Dridgo to Water street; thence along Water street to Fulton street thence aloig Fulton street to York street, aud thence along Y'ork street to Washington Btreot. Tho sa whose corporalo name was changed bv Chapter 42! of tho Laws of 1875, passed May ii, 1875, and which lias been succeeded by tho Brooklyn F.lcvited Railroa I Company as its legal successor, is hereby required to chmgo its route accordingly, but the Baid eoni any shall not be obliged to relinquish that portion or its route hereinbefore directed to be relinquished, until it shall have completed that portion of the route herein particularly described." Since this resolution was passed the railroad company has entered into negotiation with tho bridge triiHleos, picking toward tho securing of terminal facilities on grounds beh nging to tho bridge at tho Fulton Ferry, aud it Is hopod by this means to render unnecessary the use of Fulton slreet in any way for their purposes.

The route selec'od from Washington street down to the. ferry sjoius to ino substantially free from objection. In furtherance of tho ondcavor to reach the best possihlo solution or the problem, and in entire sympathy with yoif purpuKO to solvo it in some way, I return this resolution in order to keep the matter in abeyance until some understanding can bo had with tho trustees of the bridge. Respectfully, Setii Low, Mayor. Mayou's Office, Citi' Hall, BltooKl.YN, April 17, 1835.

To the llonotab'e the CoMiiion Council Gf.sti.f.mf.s Herewith I return disapproved your resolution of April G. readiug as follows 'sulcad. That permission be and the same is hereby given to the Brouklyn City and Newtown Railroad Company to construct ajddlng on Elm place, side, the same to extend on Elm place two hundred and fifty foot southorly from tho suuthwost ournor of Fulton and Elm place, tho said work to dono under the direction aud suporvisiou of the Commissioner of the Depirtuieut of City Works." The privilege sought by tbo Brooklyn City and Newtown Railroad Company in the above resolution is In no sen. a siding to their tracks, but a spur into Elm place In the nature of a new pieco of road. If this ia proper wo may next bo asked to allow a iillns up Montague street to the Academy of MuBic.

In my opinion tlie only way in which the privilego sought by the DeKalb avonuo road can bo obtained, is under the go snrfaco railroad law of last year. An additional roasnn why the city should prefer that method is found in the fact that under tho general law provision is made for a mouov return to tho city fur tho privilego granted. Respectfully, Skth Low, Mayor. GENERA Li INTELLIGENCE. Happenings Hcported from all Part ol tlm World.
