THE MONUMENTAL WESTERN MJISANOE. A NEW TWIST A NICE SEQUEL ALONG THE LINE 4 O'CLOCK EDIIM lege and was graduated in the class of 1870. Through the influence of Father Murphy he built up a comparatively lucrative practice for a young physician. Bernard Gallagher was unknown in Grcenpolnt, he never having resided there for any considerable length of time, and never was returned, to my knowledge, but before It went, I got Mr. Toombs, to make me a cop; which said copy I have to day.

At this time, and whllo the bill was before the Legislature, 1 made an estimate from the beat data attainable of the cost of the extension. One hundred feet in width would then have been $2,237,000. The increase in values: the improvements made, together with the additional 40 feet proposed, would bring these figures up to $4 000 000. But' those figures, formidable thay may appear, were not the most frightful part of thoj'06 the worst feature was the God forsaken state in which it left the remaining property on tho blocks cat through. Brno possibility or contrivance could a decent house be built from one end of the avenue to the ofier.

There was a scheme on foot then, as now, to purchase 800 feet, but whether the company then had $10,000 to commence an $8,000,000 job I do not know, but it fell through, as I am rather apprehensive their successors will ultimately do, even with the $10,000. If one man' or one company owned the one hundred feet on each side, it would be a little better they could put it to the best possible use but with one threo cornered pieco belonging to Dick, and Fronting on Duffleld street Block.

Eight Tramps Captured After a Sharp Fig lit with Revolvers and KiSIcs. Bk.mnerd, April 20. Sheriff Mortz and the police had a lively skirmish yesterday afternoon with a crowd of armed tramps, who had stationed themselves at the railroad bridge near tho city and were stopping everyone who came along.

The officers captured six of tho party and lodged than in Jail. Policeman Shotwell and Deputy Sheriff Palmer wero slightly wounded in the fray. After this first capture the Sheriff's posse, armed with rifles, started in pursuit of the others, who were hiding in tho timber on the west side of the river. They camo upon two, who were lying in a thicket, revolvers in hand, ono of whom was the mau who had shot Shotwell They were ordered to throw up their hands, and upon the refusal to do so, the police party fired, severely and probabfy fatally wounding ono of tho hunted men, who, with his companion, was removed to the Jail, making a total capture of eight men. They all pretend to hail from New Orleans, and say they have been working their way gradually thence up the river.

LAUER'S LOGIC Advanced the in Support Excise Bill. of Tlic Commissioner Tells the Governor Why the Measure Should be Approved Difficulties Under Wliieh the Department has Labored General Belief that the Mill Will be Signed Mr. William C. DeWitt and the Flatbush Avenue Extension. Special to the Eagle.

Albany, April 20. Tho Assembly Cities Committee, at the rcquost of several Brooklyn members, has reported a bill giving the Pulico Tension fund twenty per cent, ot the Exciso money. Exciso Commissioner Laner, George Zipp, Joseph F. Froelich, Louis Froelich, F. W.

Piper and Henry Bcrau hare been before tho Governor to urge his approval of the Excise bill pertaining to New York and Brooklyn. Mr. Laner said I come as Excise Commissioner to accompany a delegation representing the most influential part of Brooklyn liquor dealers. The reason why we appear 1r that the dealers became somewhat alarmed when they heard you had Eent tho bill back for amendment, and that the bill which they had so long fought for was in danger of not meeting with your Excellency's approval. From all we can learn, we found that tho only objection which your Excellency had to the bill was the clause contained in the second section relating to transfers of licenses, and that this was, in your judgment, not sufficiently binding.

I may give you assurance that, bo far as Brooklyn is concerned, this matter of transferring licenses was thoroughly understood by us inasmuch as it was one of the recommendations which we embodied in our annual report to Mayor Low. The best explanation I can give in regard to this matter is that our experience has convinced us that many a time landlords have oppressed their tenants by compelling them to move from premises for no other than selfish motives long boforo the license of such tenant had expired, involving frequently a loss to license of from eight to ten mouths' unexpired time. As the law stood, we could not assist those people by transferring their licenses to another place which they might find, and it is for this reason that wo requested that tho Legislature should give the Eicise Commissioners power to tranfer such license according to their judgment so as to relieve those people from unnecessary hardship and persecution. Your Excellency should sign tho bill if for no reason other than it contains the clause which abolishes the abominable three bed system. This has created in Brooklyn the establishment of a score, of houses of ill fame which it has been our constant aim to exterminate.

The bill as it is, I can Bssure you, meets with entire approbation of the Brooklyn Excise Commissioners. I am happy to say that between them and tho reputable liquor dealers there exists most perfect harmony, and we shall be phased if your Excolleucy can, after careful deliberation, attach your signature to it. The Governor appeared to be friendly, and said his purpose in seeking to amend was to prevent any misunderstanding as to its provisions. He presumed the 1 ill would be altered by Legislature to meet hie views. Originally it contained soiuo provisions that did not meet his approval.

The reports of committees were not reached to day in the Assembly. The Cities Committees' report on the Flatbush avenue bill was not presented. The Ken ate has ordered to a third reading the Assembly bills to reimburse Andrew Zeiser and to exempt licensed engineers from jury duty. At the request of James Shevlln, ex Warden of the Penitentiary, the bill to repair tho streets of Brooklyn, at a cost of $300,000, has been recommitted to the Senate Committee on Cities. It now provides that the money shall be.

borrowed and repaid in ten annual installments. Mr. Shevlin, as the guardian here of tho interests of tho taxpayers of Brooklyn, wants the bill amended so that the whole amount shall be inserted in the next budget. He is also advocating the formation of a company to oxtcud Flatbush avenue. David T.

DoWitt, of Ulster, is going around the Assembly chamber showing a telegram from his brother, William C. DeWitt, stating that tho whole Brooklyn bar is opposed fo the extension of Flatbush avenue, as it would ruin property in the vicinity of the City Hall. The question is William C. been engaged by Fulton street property owners to oppose tho passage of the bill and is he using David on the floor of the Assembly 7" Through the exertions of Kiernan the enacting clause has been stricken from the bill repealing the act of last year which gives the Union Ferry Company the power to lake land by right of eminent domain for a ferry slip at tho foot of Whitehall street, New York. The Assembly Committee on Cities has amended tho Street Cleaning bill making it incumbent on tho Commissioner of the Department of City Works to award the contract to tho lowest bidder, such contract to run for three years.

Miss Minnie Conway Brings a Suit for the Annullment of her Marriage to Cornetlst Levy The Fair Plaintiff's Story of her Wrongs Lawyer Bird Waxes Indignant. Charges of Eerjnry Miss Conway Vig' orously Defended. A new twist was given to the Levy Conway complication to day by tho commencement of an action by Miss Minnie Conway against Jules Levy for the an nulment of the marriago contracted between the par ties lit 1875. The suit is brought in the New York Su, preme Court, tho papers have been served, and it Is ex ported that the trial will come on at an early date Is apparent from tho condition of the litigation between the cornetlst and his late spouse that the utmost bitter ness of feeling exists, and that the contest will bo bittor and prolonged, and will probably lead to some startling disclosures. Meanwnilo Miss Conway, through her counsel, enters a pointed denial to the statements made by Levy affecting her character, tho allegation that her children were abducted, and tho Btory that coupled her name with that of Osmond Tearlc, tho Silver King of Wallack's Theater.

miss conwat's complaint. In tho complaint in tho new action for the annulment of her marriage, Miss Conway sues under the nanio of Marlanno Conway Levy. She alleges that on August 15, 1875, the plaintiff and defendant were resi dents of tho State of New York and still are such that on August 29, I860, at the Parish Church, Parish of St. ueorge's, Hanover square, County of Middlesex, Eng land, tho defendant was married to Emily Grater that tho marriage was consummated that thoy lived to gether in England and New York State as husband and wife, and that thcro was issue of said marriage that on August 15, 1875, Emily Grater Levy was tho living and lawful wlfo of the defendant Isaac Levy, and no decree 01 divorce had been rendered setting aside said marriage that in the City of New York on August 15, 1875, the plaintiff was married to tho defendant and at that tiins Emily Grater Levy was still living and her marriage to Isaac Levy was in full force and effect wherefore the plaintiff demands judgment that said marriage between the plaintiff and defendant bo declared null and void and for tho costs of this action. THE FOUBTH CONTEST.

This is tho fourth legal contest that has taken place in which the parties were involved. Tho Indiana di vorce from Mrs. Levy No. 1, which is now claimed by Miss Conway to be fraudulent and obtained on per. jured testimony, was soon followed by her marriage to the cornetlst.

In 1881 Mrs. Emily Grater Levy came over from England and brought.a suit for divorce on the ground of infidelity against Isaac Levy in tho New lork Superior Court. The matter was referred to Charles A. Jackson, before whom it is still pending. Miss Conway says that the proofs in this case clearly show that Mrs.

Emily Grater Levy was ontitled to a divorce, but that the suit was stopped by Levy iu col lusion with the plaintiff therein. Iu 1882 Mrs. Emily Gratcr Levy brought a second suit for divorce against Isaac Levy, alleging adultery. The action was in the Supremo Court. The plaintiff's lawyer in this suit failed to object to tho introduction of the alleged fraudulent Indiana divorco, and tho result was a verdict for the defendant.

The allegation is made by Miss Conway that the proceedings wero fraudulent ana collusive. THE STORY OP HER WRONOS. Miss Conway at this point intervenes with a demand that the judgment affirming the legality of the Indiana divorce bo set aside ou account of the manifest fraud of tho proceeding. It is to back up this de mand that Miss Conway Bwears to the story of her alleged deception at tho hands of Levy, she swears that before her marriage, having heard that tho defendant had obtained a divorco from his first wife, sho consulted A. J.

Dittenhoefer as to tho validity of tho Indiana divorce, and he informed her that she could safely marry the defendant. Afterward, she alleges, Dittenhoefer informed her that tho Indiana divorce was not worth the paper it was written upon. Sho was astonished, and told Dittcnhoofer that she con traded tho marriago ontlrcly upon his opinion of the validity of the divorco. "Ho coolly," sho adds, "denied having told mo anything of tho kind. He subsequently volunteered tho advice that I ought not to live with such an uncongenial man as the defendant.

I told him that ho pretonded to be tho frioud of tho defondant, and that I did not want any of his advice as to what I should do. I never had anything to do with him after ward. I found that I was everywhere regarded as any thing but tho wife of tho defendant." She then recites tho fact that Emily Orator Levy had brought an action againBt Levy on the ground that ho was living in im proper relations with her (Miss Conway). DOWNRIOHT PERJURY ALLEGED. Miss Conway was in Europe when the second action for divorco was begun.

Upon her return sho swore she was imposed upon, that her old nureo who she believed had the greatest affection for her 1ml been coached as a wit ness to prove that sho was present at tho marriage of Emily Grater and Isaac Levy iu England in 1800, and that the nurse had not seen the marriage and that sho gave tho false testimony by the connivanco of Levy and A. J. Dittenhoefer. Sho adds As soon as I learned what had been done I called upon my present counsel, Mr. Bird, and was advised by him that I am not in law the wife of said defend ant, that tho alleged Indiana divorce is ilk gal and that the decrco establishing its validity in this action was fraudulently obtained and should be va cated and set aside, and that I ought for my own sake and that of my two children, who havo been born of my alleged marriage with the defendant, to bring an action to set aside my marriago with the defendant, on the ground that HE WAS ALREADY MARRIED when he married me.

I want to know by a just decroo whether or not I am tho wife of the defendant. I am told, and reluctantly believe, I am not, and I am tired of the uncertainty and tho unenviable notoriety which my marriage with the defendant has caused me. Another witness that the plaintiff examined in this action was Mary HaiiBen, Sho alBO was an old family servant of ours, as tho defendant and Dittenhoefer well knew, let both these old family retainers wero loaned by the dofeudant and Dittouhoofer to tho plaintiff to obtain the fraudu lent judgment that has been entered herein." In this decree Miss Conway's marriago to Levy was declared valid. "I solemnly assert," she says, "that I have had no hand iu this dirty work that I did not know that our old servants had testified to anything wrong until last week, and that I condemn tho same at the first op portunity." Miss Conway's affidavit was supported by those of her old nurse, Mary Clancy, and her former servant, Mary Hansen. Judge Donohuo ordered that tho decreo de claring valid the Indiana divorce and consequently the validity of the Lovy Conway marriage be set aside, and that Marianne Conway "have such other and further relief as to the Court shall seem meet and proper." LEVY EXCORIATED.

Tho "other and further relief it is understood, is to bo sought in tho new suit Miss Conway has brought for the annulment of her marriage. Mr. John H. Bird, her counsel, when questioned by an Eaglk reporter about the action to day, was very indignant at the reflections of Lovy upon his late wife. He said I am astonished that Lovy should havo the temerity to talk as he doos.

Why I believe he ought to bo prosecuted. He has acted very badly, while Miss Conway has done all that a woman could do under the circumstances. The talk about her having disappeared is idle gossip. Sho is living quietly iu the City of New York now, is under my protection and by my advice is keeping in retirement. Sho is firm in her resolution never to live with Levy again.

Her suit to nuuul the maiTingc be tween them, is perfectly understandable. Only by tills means can her children be declared legitimate, and this, we hold can be effected uudor section 1,743 of the code. You can say ou my authority that Levy's children were not taken from him, but tliat the nurse was compelled to tako them from his house because of his maltreatment. They are with their mother who is caring for them as best she can. Miss Conway is so situated that she is without means.

When she parted from Levy she refused to tako her jewelry, and left nearly all her wardrobe and personal property." A DENIAL CONCERNING TEARLE. Mr. Bird said further that the rumors connecting the name of Miss Conway with that of Mr. Tearlo wore un true, and that ho believed they were traceable to the stories set afloat by Miss Conway's enemies. So far as the statement of Levy that he (Bird) was a friend of Tearlo'a was concerned, Mr.

Bird said he had never met Tearle socially, and had only seen him two or three times in his life. He added that Miss Conway's brother Frederick was living with Levy, and that tho latter had uttered all sorts of threats against his adversaries. WHERE DID LYNCH WORK? lie Wait Never in the Employ of a Merritt or Bennett in Brooklyn and is Unknown to Coach Builders The Gallaghers. The search for the carriage factory in which Lynch nWa Norman the London dynamite informer, claimed iu Ids testimony at tho Bow street examination yesterday to havo worked prior to his departure for England last March, was continued by Eagle reporters to day. The firm of Coo Merritt, on Bedford avonve, near Flushing avenue, was visited.

Ex Senator John W. Coe, who is the head of tho firm, said that a man named Lynch worked for them a few years ago and left in August, 1881. He was a tall, thin man with dark hair streaked with gray and had a dark mus stache. He was apparently about 40 years of age and lived on Maspeth avenue. As the man does not answer the description of the informer, inquiry was made among the workmen to ascertain if they knew of any Lynch who did.

Nobody seemed to know him. At the wagon factories of the Bennetts' in the Fifth Ward it was stated that no such person as the informer or aby man of that name had worked for them within a few years. Mr. P. Barrett, of Johnson and Navy streets, said that no Lynch had ever been employed by him, nor did ho ever hear of a man likely to be the informer who worked for a Brooklyn firm.

A workman stated that he had been conversing with eUow craftsmen about tho matter, and one of them stated that ho knew a Lynch who was a carriage painter, and that he believed that that was the informer's trade. Other carriage and wagon manufacturers were visited, but they knew nothing about a Lynch who answered the description furnished of the informer. THE GALLAGHERS. Tho relatives of Dr. Gallagher refused to give any information or converse with reporters.

Miss Gallagher, the Doctor's sister, stated to the writer not long since that her brother Bernard was an iron moulder, and worked at Sing Sing. He had made several trips to this country, but finding work dull wont back to Scotland again. They hare sold the Doctor's horso. A brother named Michael resides with his mother and sister. Dr.

Gallagher was a member of tho Celtic Club of the Clan uaGael of the Seventeenth Ward, to which society several prominent Irish American residents of Green point belong. Ho apparently took no part in Irish national affairs and his connection with the Clan na Gael was known to but very few members of the order outside his own club. He was an intimate friend of Father Murphy, pastor of St. Anthony's Church, and took an interest in all matters connected with the church. He had a clerical appearanco and might have been taken for a priest only for Ids mustache.

The Doctor was an iron moulder in his younger days and worked for John Roach, in Now York. He attended the, ovenlng lectures iu Bellovue Hospital Medical Col The Property Affected by the Proposed New Thoroughfare. The Ileal Estate Touched by the Projected Extension of Flatbush Avenue to the East River Bridge Churches, Schools, Halls and Other Institutions in Danger of De molitionThe Old White House to be Cnt in Two Tltc Castle of Maurice Fitzgerald Menaced Mlocks and Lots Sliced on tho Bias Bishop Loughlin's Residence in tho Path of the Surveyors Significant and Interesting Facts and Figures from the Assessors' Books Tho Estimated Cost of Land $1,900,000. The projected extension of Flatbush avenne to the East Hiver Bridge lias excited public attention to such an extent that tho Eaole publishes herewith a complcto list of the property affected by tho proposed improvement. It will be seen by reference to the facts and figures printed below that if the thoroughfare i opened as suggested there will be a marked change in ono of the oldest and most densely populated sections of the city.

Many ancient landmarks will bo swept away and the demolition of numerous institutions will be necessitated. Tho plan of tho new avenue gives every lot. without exception, a eoro front. Some of the squares are. considerably cut, but according to competent authorities there is not a piece oil tho lino which will not bo more valuable after the extension than before.

The real estate involved is all situated within tho boundaries of the Fourth and Eleventh Wards. Among the important structures affected are. St James' Roman Catholic Cathedral and schools, on Jay street, between Concord and Tillary the dlo eesau residence ot Bishop Loughlin, St. James' Semi narv and St. James' Hall, on tho opposite side of Jay street tho Fleet Street MethodiBt Epis copal Church and lecture room tho Roman Catholic Church of St.

Casimir, on Lawrence street St. Bom face's Roman Catholic Church, on Dufficld Btreet, near Willonghby tho Wcsleyau African Methodist Episco pal Cliurch.on Bridge street, and the Jewish Synagoguo of Beth Elohim. on Pearl street, near Concord. The line of tho avenue strikes the White Houso property owned by ex Register Hugh McLaughlin, for many years the headquartcre of the local Democratic organization. Ono of the pieces involved is the houso and lot of the venerable Maurice Fitzgerald, on Concord street, Mr.

Fitzgerald was at the City Hall to day. He is pronounced in his opposition to tho project. Relative to the schenio he recalled a rnEvious effort to open Flatbush avonue. Ho said that in 1876 or 1877 a bill for the extension and a map were prepared by Surveyor Toombs and sent to Albany. At the time ho made an estimate of the cost of the avenue at 100 feet width, and according to his computation tho cost would have been $2,237,000.

He believes that tho in crease of valuation, tho improvements and the additional 40 feet of width will bring the total up to $4,000,000. Mr. Fitzgerald's opposition to tho Bclieme will be found in a characteristic communication pub lished below. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FIGURES. In the figures printed herewith tho valuation is 70 per cent, of the full market value of the property as shown by the books of the Board of Assessors.

This, as will appear from the recapitulation, makes the total $1,443, 700. It is the practice of tho Assessors to rcscunear ly 70 per cent, of the actual value as possible. Tho addition of 30 per cent, will therefore represent the total valuation of the property affected and will bring the figures up to $2,100,000. This is easily within tho esti mate made by Mayor Low for tho purcbaso of tho laud necessary for the improvement. A further matter for consideration is tho fact that the Assessors hold that of the properly taken only 80 per cent, of the valuation of $1,443,750 will bo condemned, thus reducing tho gross cost to the extent of 20 per or in other words, making $1,900,000 the actual estimated cost.

Tho figures given in the Eagle to day arc taken from the assessments for 1882, which are the last made by the Board. WHAT THE ASSESSORS SAV. President John Truslow, of tho Board of Assessors, said to an Eacle reporter to day I deem the improvement a very dcsirablo ono for Brooklyn. The Mayor's Bchemo I regard as a wiso ono. As to its cost coming within the estimates already made I will say that I think it likely; It is not easy, howover, to be certain on this point, although the estimate will not bo overrun to any great extent.

The reason it is not certain is that there is no telling what view tho Commissioners will take of the valuations. If they remain at the same figure that they wero six mouths ago there is no doubt the cost will be within the estimate. If largo additions are made to previous valuations it is not so certain. I do not think, however, tho excess will be very great. ASSESSOR HOPKINS VIEWS.

Assessor Hopkins Baid ho thought the improvement was a very necessary one, though he (lift not nice the manner in which it was proposed to make it. I think, he added, "that the adjoining property should bo as sessed at least for a part of the cost of opening tho street, for tho reason that the property left upon the new thoroughfare will bo advav.c jd in value three or four hundred per cent. It Is too late, of course, to discuss the conditions under which owners of property immediately affectod should be dealt with. I am of tho opinion, howover, that in many instances tho awards made for property condemned should bo of a merely nominal character. Tako the case of a man whose lot is cut in two, leaving one half of bis property fronting on the new thoroughfare.

The remaining hslf would bo worth from four to five times as much as the whole lot was worth before the improvement was made, and it would be absurd to pay a man for doing him a most substantial benefit. However, it is rather early to discuss bucIi details. It is enough at this time to say that I am generally in favor of tho scheme."

Father and Son Convicted and then Discharged and Again Arraigned. Petersburg, April 20. At this term of the Circuit Court of Brunswick County, Clinton Hatchott and bis son, Oliver Hatchett, colored, were arraigned for trial for the rnurdor of Moses Young, colored, who was killed by drinking whisky Into which strychnine hod been ejected. Both Hatchetts wore arrested and charged with the crime, and on the trial both were convicted and sentenced to be hanged. A writ of supersedeas was obtained from tho Court of Appeals of Virginia, staying the execution and sontenco until the records of the case could be examined.

This resulted in tho court granting them a rehearing at tliia term of the court, when a nolle prosequi was entered and the prisoners discharged. Immediately after their discharge they were again arrested as tho parties guilty of tho murder of Young, and wore committed to Jail to await trial at the next term of tho County Court, Their last arrest was due to the tact ot additional testimony having boon obtained against them. MUNICIPAL. The Patronasre TJncler the Arrears Law. "What is Said by Mayor Low and President Truslow, of the Board of Assessors The Montague Street Railroad Tho Latest News from the City Hall.

Mayor Low's attention has been called by a prominent city official to the custom of tho Board of Estimate to raise in the tax levy annually the sum of $150,000, which is put in tho Sinking fund for tho purpose of paying off tho bridge bonds at maturity. The city official said that this action of the Board of Estimate was dearly illegal, as there was not tho shadow of authority for raising tho money in that way. In support of his assertion he directed tho Mayor's attention to tho Bridge act of 1875 (chapter 300), which contains among other things this provision "On tho completion of said bridge tho income derived from tho samo by the cities of Now York and Brooklyn Bhall be applied toward tho payment of tho principal and interest of all bonds issued by the said cities for their atock in said bridge. In the year 1870 and annually thereafter thcro shall be paid into the Sinking fund of said cities respectively $160,030 for the purpose of paying said bonds at maturity and any deficiency in tho amount of principal or interest annually required shall be raised in the annual tax of tho said cities respect ively." The official eaid that the provision meant clearly that the money to be put In the Sinking fund was to come from tho revenue derived from tho bridgo, and that the assumption at the time of the passage of the act must havo been that the structure would bo completed by 1879. He added that it was evident that tho Sinking fund moneys should come from the bridge income, because the law provided that any deficiency in priucipal or interest was to be raised in the taxes, whereas in tho other case there was nothing at all said about raising tho money in the levy.

Tho Mayor told his informant that ho should look carefully into tho matter. An examination of the records show that tho sum of $000,000 has been paid into the sinking fund uudor the law as interpreted by tho Board of Estimate $300,000 in 1881 for 1879 and 1880 and $.100,000 in 1882 for 1881 and 1882. More or less politi cal capital has been made about the failure to put these moneys in tho Sinking fund at what was claimed to be tho propor times, and it would bo a funny outcome if, after all, it should be determined that a blunder had been made by the Board. Mayor Low said to day that he thought $150,000 was too much put 111 the Sinking fund annually, but about the cor rectness of the action of the Board in the past he had nothing to say for publication. His manner seemed to indicate that he was giving the matter serious thought.

'itio city official who had introduced tho sub ject to tho Mayor, said to an Eagle reporter that there was not the slightest doubt that the Board had, to say tho least, badly blundered. He even wcut so far as to express tho opinion that their action might invalidate the tax levies of the years in question. He said that tho lovy covered by the Brevoort suit had been so seriously affected by a trifiing omission on the part of the Assessors, that the Legislature had to interpose a protecting hand, it was j.ist possible that parties would seek to take advantngo of tho city in the present case. Ho did not want to bo regarded as an alarmist, but he thought it well that tho authorities should pursue the course they had been pursuing, no longer. He had carefully examined all acts relating to the bridge since tho law of 1875, and found nothing in them to contradict tho point he made.

He did not believe that tho New 1'ork officials had raised the money and ho was convinced that our Board of Estlmaio would not iucludo tho item in their statement this year. An accountant at the City Ilall, who was spoken to mado a calculation showing that if Brooklyn should continue to put $150,000 in tho sinking fund annually by the year 1924 (at 4 per cent, compound interest), al the bridge bonds would be paid off and there would bo a surplus of $5,000,000 in tho fund 1 THE PATRONAGE UNDER THE ARREARS LAW. There seems to be an Impression around the Hall that in the carrying out of the new Arrears law the Assessors will have a great deal of patronage to dispense, and that much money will havo to be expended by the city. Tho attention of Mayor Low was called to tho matter to day and he was asked for an explanation. The Arrears law," said the Mayor, "authorizes tho different departments called upon to do extra work to incur such cxpenje as may bo necessary, with the ap proval of the Mayor.

I havo arranged with the heads of departments that no stationery is to be ordered, 110 clerks are to bo hired and no expense of any kind is to bo incurred without an application to 1110 in writing stating in detail the object for which the expense is necessary. This application is to bo approved by mo in writing. To keep tho record of such expenses clear I havo prepared a book, which Is in offico and open to tho inspection of citizens at all times, showing precisely what authority has been granted and for what purpose. The Board of Assessors aro obliged to have copieB of the arrears ledgers which are being prepared by tho Controller. These ledgers, which show in detail the claims of tho city against each lot, wero begun 111 January of last year, and are not yet finished.

They havo cost tho city about $55,000. At the time this expense was authorized the Registrar of Ar rears was empowered, with the consent of the Mayor, to make a copy of those books for his office at an expense of $15,000. That expense has never been Incurred and will uot be but as tho ledgers arc in dally use ill the Controller's office, it Is clear that tho Assessors, in order to know the city's claims against each lot and to bo ablo to act upon them under the Arrears law, must havo before them at all times copies of those books. Tho twelve clerks that will bo appointed, or have been, will be paid $100 a month, and it is estimated that tho copies of tho books will bo substantially finished by the 1st of October, at which time the Assessors ara to commenco their labors. If this anticipation is realized tho work wilt cost the city about $5,000 and will save an estimated exponso of $15,000.

When these books are ready tho necessity for extra clerical help iu the Assessors' Department will be very small Indeed. These clerks are appointed to make theso lists and for no other purpose. I want the peoplo of tho city to understand that tho expenses incurred under that act will bo under my own personal supervision. The work to bo dono is a very large one. Thcro aro estimated to bo, I think, 35,000 different parcels iu arrears, and in tho process of settling so large a matter it is not impossiblo that expenses will bo incurred that cannot easily be foreseen.

Every expense, however, will be kept down to the lowest point possible." President Truslow, of the Board of Assessors, said The number of open accounts on tho ledgers now is 33,837. There must be added to that the arrears of water rates of 1882. It is estimated there aro as many as 8,000 accounts that are uot in arrears for anything else. There are also sower assessments that aro in the hands of tho Collector and not yet on the arrears ledgers, which must bo added. There are of those 2,043 open accounts, which will mako the grand total (estimated) of open accounts, 43,880." Mr.

Truslow was asked about tho appointments, no replied that he thought he should be ablo to announce tho complete list in a fow days. It was ascertained from other sources that the following parties are among those selected for appointments John H. Kane, Seventh Ward Wm 8haw, Ninth Ward James Casey, Tenth Ward John Bennett, Fourth Ward F. De Wigno, Third Ward, and John W. Sanborn, Thirteenth Ward.

Kane was chief clerk of 10 old Arrears Commission and was for a number of yoars connected with the tax departments of the city. He is a Republican. Shaw Is tax searcher and a Republican. Casey is a brother of Alderman Casey and has been at work on tho ledgers for the Controller. He is a Democrat.

Bennett is president of tho Fourth Ward Republican Association. De Wigne was iu the Controller's office undor Controllers Stcln metz and Semler. Ho has also done work for Controller Brinkerhoff. 8auhoru is a Republican. It is understood that all the new men will begin work next week.

THE MONTAGUE STREET RAILROAD. Hiry E. Pierrepont was at tho Department of of City Works to day talking with Commissioner Ropes about tho proposed cable railroad on Montague street. He said that published statements to the effect that there was uo opposition to the scheme wero incorrect. There was very great opposition to it, and a meeting of property owners would be held next Monday night to protest against it.

Commissioner Ropes said he was opposed to the project. The Commissioner said that a good deal of money had been expended by the city in resurfacing Montague street, and the contractor was under bonds to keep it in good condition for five years. COULDN'T PROVE HIS CIIAM0E. James O'Brien, of No. 30 Main street, was arrested upon a charge of grand larceny prcforrcd by John C.

Hunter, the captain ot the schooner J. M. Ayres, lying at the Empire Stores. Tho captain alleged that Tuesday night O'Brien iuduccd him to enter a watchhonso at the foot of Washington street. Captain Hunter says he was drunk at the time and fell asleep Wlieu he awoke his wallet, containing $100, was gone, and as O'Brien was tho only he knew to be near him, he had him arrested.

Tbia suspicion, however, was not evidence, and so Justice Walsh discharged 'Jlrlcn. ASSI VERSAK OF MOORE'S DIIITHDAY. The St. Patrick Society will meet in Jefferson Hall to night for the purpose of making arrangements to insure a proper celebration of the anniversary of Tom Moore's birthday. It in ono of the pleasant features of tho age tliat the celebration of such anniversaries is be coming very general, aud tho memory of tho men whoso labors have lightened toil aud appealed to the better and finer feelings of humanity appears to bo cherished more tenderly as the years goby.

Last year's celebration was a very notable one, and judging from the pro iressivo spirit which animates tho St. Patrick Society, will bo excelled by that which is to come off on tb 28th of next month the one hundred and fourth anni versary of Moore's birthday. another to Harry. The avenuo woma oe a secona eai .1 in l.ftf it over be made better, for the shape of the ground will still remain tne same.

In the case of tho bridge you have something to look at for your nionoy.

This is a weighty, many sided matter, and will bear all the uiscussion can te given to it. OVER A MILLION Disposed of by the Will of the I.ate John Billiard. An Important Decision by Surrogate Ber gen Affecting the Claims of the Widow. John Ballard, fin old resident of the Heights, died on January 13, 1881, leaving a will dated February' 4, 1876, by which he disposed of over a mdlion and a half of property.

Ho devised to his wife, Jane E. Bullard, in tee, his house and lot 220 Columbia street, with his fur niture, paintings, horses, carriages, and bequeathed her a legacy of $150,000 and tho income of one fifth part of the residue of tho estate during her life all in lieu and bar of her dower and all claims on his estate as his widow, He left no children or descendants of childron. To William Bullard, his brother, he left a legacy of $25,000 and two fifths of the resi duo of the estate, amounting to $384,000. William died before the tOBtator, and thus the legacies became lapsed. The executors petitioned the court for a judicial settlement of their accounts and a decree of distribution.

Mrs. Bullard objected to tho account of the executor (1) because it did not show the amount of the residuary estato. She also objected (2) to the several items of the accounts wherein the executors have credited themselves with payments to various persons on account of the residuary estate. She objected further (3) that the executors have not paid her one half of tho lapsed legacies to which she is entitled according to the statute of distributors, and (4) that they havo not paid her interest on her life legacy of one fifth of tho residuary estate from the date of the death of the testator. Surrogate Bergen this morning filed his opinion.

He savs that in rcferenco to tho first and second objections lie' thinks they arc not well taken, as tho exact amount of the residuary estate cannot be ascertained until commissions, allowances and expenses attending the accounting havo been settled and allowed. Tho account does show, however, that tho amount of tho residuary estate is $891,166.35, subject to deductions as aforesaid, which can only bo fixed at the entry of the decree. Tho payments to some of the residuary legatees do not affect Mrs. Bullard'8 interest, as tho executors retained sufficient funds to meet her claims. As to the third objection, if Mrs.

Bullard is correct as to the law relative to tho lapsed legacies, she is ontitled to about $102,000 more than the sum with which the executors have credited her. The Surrogata thinks that, tho widow having accepted the proisionof the will in lieu of dower and of all claims she may have on the testator's estate as his widow, she is restricted to the provisions made for her benefit and cannot share in tho lapsed legacies. The Snrrogato cites Chamberlain vs. Chamberlain, 43, N. 443, and Kerr vs.

Dougherty, 77, N. 34(1, in support of his position. The learned Surrogate holds that the widow is not entitled to any portion of the lapsed legacies, but that they must bo distributed to tho next of kin. Tho Snrrogato thinks the fourth objection well taken. His Honor cites authorities, and is of opinion that interest mut be allowed to Mrs.

Bullard on the one fifth part of the residuary, directed to bo invested for her benefit, from tho death of tho testator. o. THE JENKS DIAMOND ROBBERY. rreat ol tlte Alleged Principal in tlic Crime. The thief who stole Mrs.

Jenks' jewelry on the 26th ult. waB taken into custody by Detectives Low cry and Chambers. Ho is known by the name of Fred. Wagner, but has also passed by tho names of John Hogan and Thomas Maguire. Ho was arrested last night, at No.

240 Seventh street, where his father lived. Although tho police authorities are confident that he ia the man who entered Mrs. Jenks' houso on tho pretense that he had come to look after the water pipes, and then skipped away with $800 worth of Jewelry, Ids arrest was made on a warrant charging him with petit larceny. The complainant is Tascher Newman, of No. 215 Lafayette avenue, from whom it is alleged Wagner stolo an overcoat, valued at $20.

Wagner was arrested some years ago by Detective (uow Captain) Folk, on a charge of burglary, and his picture is in tho Itogues' Gallery. To day he had tho impudence when confronted with the picture to deny that it was his, although there could be no mistaking tho resemblance. When searched at the station houso last night, a book with several entries, supposed to be of places which ho had either robbed or intended to rob, was found in his possession. Tho prisoner was arraigned this morning before Justice Walsh, and held for examination. WAGNER ADMITS HIS QUILT.

Wagner was positively identified this morning by a New York jeweler as the man who came to his store and offered for sale eomc of Mrs. Jenk's diamonds. It was not, however, until ho was introduced to Superintendent Campbell this afternoon that ho admitted that he had committed the robbery. It is no use," he said to tho Superintendent, "to deny this thing any longer. I stole the jewelry belonging to Mrs.

Jenks. I was drunk when I did it, and did not know what I was about. I believe Mrs. Jenks is the daughter of Bishop Littlejohn I would like to see the Bishop. I don't think if ho know all tho circumstances he would prosecute me." Wagner Is a fine looking young fellow, with a handsome face and rosy cheeks.

He had a penchant for fast living and was addicted to gambling. He says he distributed some of Mrs. Jenks' trinkets to two young women in New York, named Itosa and Annie. Tho caso has been finely worked up by Detectives Lowery and Price, and Superintendent Campbell highly complimented them this morning on the success which has attended their efforts. Not only have they discovered most of the Btolen property, but tho principal thief and his confederate are under lock and key.

THE TEARLE DIVORCE SUIT. Proceedings Before Judge Barrett in Kew York tliin morning. In the New York Supreme Court Chambers to dsy, before Judgo Barrett, Mr. Hal Bell, as counsel for Mrs. Tearlc, iu her divorce suit against her husband, Osmond Tearlc, the leading actor of Wallack's Theater, presented the order in accordance with Judge Barrett's decision a few days since requiring Mr.

Tearlo to pay his wife $2,000 a year alimony, at tho rate of $40 per week a counsel fee of $250 and also $200 as tho ex penses incurred by Mrs. Tearle in coming to this country. In addition to these conaiuous Mr. Bell also inserted in the order a statement to the effect that Mr. Tearlo be required to give security for the payment of these amounts.

Mr. Bell claimed that security should bo furnished for the payment of these amounts by Mr. Tearlc inasmuch as ho was likely to leave the cltv at any time. Counsel presented an affidavit to tho effect that every year Mr. Tearle's engagement in this city ends about June first, and that after that time he travels throughout the United states autt Canada and also in England.

Mr. Bell declared that onco Mr. Tearle left this State lie was out of the Jurisdiction of tho court and then Mrs. Tearle would be, to a certain extent, at the mercy of her unfaithful husband, insofar a the payment of alimony and counsel feo were concerned. Under these circumstances he considered that Mr.

Tearle should be compelled to give some security. He said that Mr. Tearle had shown no love for his wife or his children, and that once he was out of the jurisdiction of the court ho migh break his promise and pay alimony, as ho had broken other promises which he h'ad made to his wife, Mr. Bell said that Mr. Tearle would probably leave the city by June 1, and would not return until the latter part of the year.

Mr. John A. Dcady, representing Mr. Tearle, denied that that gentleman would leave the city at euy moment, or that there was any affidavit to show that ho would leavo the city. He urged that it would be a hardship to compel Mr.

Tearle to give security, as Mr. Tearle had no property other than Ids salary. Judge Barrett said he would consider tho matter, but intimated that if ho should come to the conclusion to compel security to bo given hedid not think the amount should exceed the amount of alimony during the time in which Mr. Tearle might be absent from the city.
