Thomas Higgins, a member of tlie firm of Higgins ct Van Ilusen, livery stable keepers and undertakers at (i 15 DeKalb avenue au (: lleid avenue, has mysteriously disappeared. On the of December he left homo to go to work for Austin, Nichols wholesale grocers of Hudson street, New York City, where he had charge of the trucking department, and attended to his business as usual. He left there at 0 P. with considerable money in his possession. Since that time he has not, been heard from, and it is thought that he has met with foul play.

His family have notified the police, who are looking in every direction for him. His employers speak highly of him and, after an examination of his accounts, find them correct. Mr. Van Ilusen. his partner, is also at a loss to account for his disappearance, yet ho has not given up hopes of his return, as their business relations were of the most friendly character.

TO OUST FUREY. Will the Commissioner he Reduced to the Ranks? Kollmeyer May Share His Fate, but Snme Early Morninsr Services the Day After Election Should Not be Forgotten. Some of tho local Democratic leaders who are tilled with a hunting desire to oust William A. Furey from the secretaryship of the Kings County Democratic General Committee, and from his position as virtual head of the Campaign Committee, arc privately advocating the election of a new set of officers for the General Committee. They say that the Eaolk has severely criticised the committee for electing officeholders to preside over that body, and that it would he go id policy to remove ground for unfavorable criticism.

The chairman of the General Couuirttee is City Works Commissioner Adams; the treasurer is Register Murtha, and the secretary is Commissioner of Jurors Furey. A large proportion of the delegates to the committee are officeholders. Mr. Adams is willing to retire, for he is not in love with the duties of chairman, yet he has made a good presiding oflicer. Mr.

Murth.i is ready to step aside because he has not fully recovered from the effects of his arduous labors in the recent political campaign. Mr. Furey is anxious to be relieved of the drudgery of the secretaryship, but does not take kindly to the idea of being driven out of the position by John Delmar, James Shcvlin and or two others whose requests he refused to comply with while he was managing the affairs of the Campaign Committee. The. politicians do not know whether Mr.

Hugh McLaughlin will permit his lieutenants to reduce Mr. Furey to the ranks in the Democratic organization. The ex Register has so far refrained from expressing an opinion as to whether it would he judicious or otherwise to place a new set of officers in charge of the General Committee. They know that Mr. McLaughlin marched in the ranks of tlie Kings County Democratic Club when Governor Hi'l was inaugurated, despite the efforts of John Delmar to get every Democratic politician of note to join the ranks of the Constitution Club when that body left for Albany.

And this is why the politicians think that Mr. McLaughlin may elect to stand by Furey and protect that gentleman from the fury of his opponents. Delmar's friends say that if Furey is reduced to the ranks his assistants, Ed Kollmeyer and Arthur B. Walklcy, will have to go to the rear in future campaigns. Mr.

Delmar a ml his associates, for some reasons best known to themselves, feel inclined to jump on Messrs. Walklcy and Kollmeyer and roll them in the mud. Loader Shcvlin Iris not shown any inclination to come, to the front and give Kollmeyer a helping hand, although the latter when a Supervisor cast a vote which won for Mr. Shcvlin his appointment as warden of the Penitentiary. On the contrary, Mr.

Shevlin is suspected of looking with disfavor on Mr. Kollmeyer, despite the fact that Edward was one of the select party which remained in Toliee Headquarters until the early hours of tlie morning following the day on which Mayor Chapin was declared elected. Superintendent of Police. Campbell and his brother, the Congressman, had left Police Headquarters that morning not quite certain of the Mayor's election, but Mr. Kollmeyer remained at his post to cheer Mr.

Shevlin and extract comfort from the gloomy returns which came slowly in. The way in which Mr. Kollmeyer figured in those dark hours of the morning, the buoyancy of spirits with which he predicted favorable results in the face of Mr. Shevlin's gloomy forebodings should have won the ex warden's friendship for life. Perhaps Mr.

Shevlin has been too busy to recall Mr. Kollmeyer's devotion to his parly in the hour of danger. These brief lines may refresh his memory, and Kollmeyer may yet laugh his enemies to scorn. 810.VEY HAKKET RHi'oMtr. H'lie Jail.

Judge Barrett the North Paver Company and Declares Its Charter ForfeitedA Vigorous Arraignment.

Id the case of the Attorney General against the River Sugar Kenning Company Judge iyarrett rendered a tlr i i. ion in tin; Supreme Court New York this morning in favor of the People, Jinse lving the company. Tliir: ili eMon, which in cry voluminous, is a disastrous blow to the Sugar Trust ninl forfeits the charier of one of the prin tipal companies of the eoniiiination. The trust Venules all of the refineries in tiih State and, vf.th few exceptions, of ue) corporations in the United States. It was denounced a menace to the public by the people, and on In half of the dcfcml.tiit it was contend.

that it was the mere individual aet of the stockholders, in joining the trust and not binding upon the company. The Judge holds that the corporation has violated its franchise. In. opening his opinion he says: This is an action in the nature of a ijuo warranto, in which the people demand judgment of forfeiture and dissolution upon the grounds stated in the following opinion. The.

piest ions to he decided in this case arc whether the acts coin plained of arc corporate acts, and, if so, whether such corporate acts are grounds of forfeiture Within 1703 of the code of cm proce thire. The. peoide rest, their cace primarily upon second and'fit'lh subdivision that the defendant has "become liable to be dissolved by the of its powers." and, under the filth, that it has exercised privileges or franchises not conferred upon it by law. The act complained el this connection is the defendant' participation between the owners of certain suu'ar refineries The first (juestion to he considered is wln ilier the corporation as such has eulered into (his combination, for, if it has not. clearly it cannot he deprived of its franchises because independent and sevens! acts, however illegal, ot its stockholders.

To a proper appreciation and solution of this question the precise tacts must be ,1 ninl the foundation of the transaction minutely analyzed. Such analysis will also and necessarily throw a clear liuht upon the. purposes of the project and thus aid I lie solution of the Fecond (mention, namely, whether the comm nation is the innocent association claimed toe defendant or the unlawful one chanted i ttie judge then reviews the t'oiiuda! ion of the combination at great length and enters into the different provisions of the agreement which is etyled the "trust He says in this connection: At the time this deed was prepared sutrar refineries in this State and country were, variously organized. Some were simple others corporations. Evidently the lii' st.

eonte.n phited by the author of the scheme was harmony in the fundamental business basis oi eaeli re finerv. The combination could never have been created upon the basis of a special or Quasi partnership arrangement between partnerships and corporations. It was necessary, therefore, either to turn the corporations partnerships or 1hf pa rtnerships into corporations. It (lid not rerpiire the astute mind that prepared this most original instrument to perceive that an aggregation of partnerships, with the da liters resulting from death and the exercise ot individual power, would never effect safe and permanent cohesion. Accordingly we lind, as one of tin first provisions of the deed and as the basis ot the so called trust structure, a condition substance that the partnerships shall all be turned into corporations.

This in fact was done, and thus several of these corporations were organized tor the express purpose of creating the very shares of capital stock through which the combination was to be formed. He recites the purposes of the combination as given in the deed and details the powers of the trustees. He shows how the trust certificates were issued and continues: Upon the acceptance of th" trust certificates the original corporate shareholder ceased to hold any further relation with his particular corporation, and thenceforward he is treated as a shareholder in the Trust Hoard. He can no longer receive a dividend from his particular corporation, indeed, can the latter ever again declare a dividend. Each corpora tern is thereiiller bound by a special provision in the deed to pay over the profits ising from its business, to the Trust Hoard.

No discretion on that head is lett in the directors of the various corporations. 1 hey cannot use any part of such profits for betterments or improved machiiieiy or increased capacity certainly not without the consent of the Trust lioard hut must pay over all the profits' directly to the Nor can even the latter declare a dividend upon the Trust certificates allotted to the shareholders of anv one corporation payable, out of the profits receive, 1 from such corporations. It is the first time in the histoi of corporations that we have heard of a double trust in their management and control one set ol trustees elected formally to manage the corporate afiair and a second tci created to manage the Inst the phareholders in seventeen corporations leaving their functions, with regard to their regular directors, to he thought out and pertorin.nl lor them by what amounts to a board of guardians. He then takes a look at the director: and shows how they have violated the statute which says that each director must he a shareholder. He thus concludes is not a ease where a few individuals in a limited locality have united for mutual protection against competition.

It is the case of great capitalists uniting their enormous wealth in mighty corporations and utilizing the franchises granted to them by tie people to oppress the people. They utilise corporate franchises to guard themselves against dangers incident to personal as ociattoii, and they centralize them a single gigantic a ml irresponsible, power furnished with every delegated for regulating and co itroliug at will, not only in the State, but throughout the entire country, the production and price of a particular and necessary article of eoiiiin rec. Vt hen 1 say irresponsible power I mean no on the gentlemen personally in whom the power is u. led. The Hoard can come as near to cresting an absolute, monopoly as is possible, under tiie social, political and economic conditions ot to day.

There is enough plain law and plain sense to ceal with corporate abn. cs like the prc. cn: aoiiscs which, if they are allowed to thnve ami become general, must inevitably lead to the oppie. ot tin! people and ultimately to the suu.ei ion ot tlieir political rights.

Si Polarii Novr York, Uamhurg. 40 His Name Applauded by the Republican General Committee. Mr. Franklin Woodruff, president of the Kings County Republican General Committee, has it in his power to appoint three committees, the members of which will assist him in discharging the important duties of hfn office a committee on legislation, one on city and county and ono on rules. Considerable interest is being manifested among Republicans to day as to the men whom the new president will seleet.

There are any number of statesmen who arc anxious to servo their country in tiiis capacity, and the only difficulty that the official from the First Ward will have will bo in being able to select his committeeman without giving offense to the one or the other of the factions. To an E.uh.k reporter Mr. Woodruff said to day: "I consider the Committee on Legislation tho most important of the three, and I want to plaoe upon it representative men who will prove a credit to the party in this county. I have had a tremendous number of applications. I cannot understand what there is so particularly desirable about the appointment." I shall decide by to night whom I shall put on tho committed.

Just now I am inclined to think that any of the following men would do well on the Executive Committee. They all are strongly recommended tome, and I am disposed to select them: Mr. William J. Taylor, of the Nineteenth Ward; Israel F. Fischer, of the Twenty sixth Ward; John Gibb, of the Seventh Ward, and Alexander N.

Lewis, of the First Ward. In case Mr. Gibb will not serve I think Mr. William II. Waring would be a good committeeman.

I particularly desire to put Mr. David A. Baldwin on one of the committees, and I think I shall try to make him chairman of the Committee on City and County." The old time Piatt men on the new General Committee were very much surprised and shocked last night upon hearing tho handsome eulogy which Mr. George B. Forrester paid to ex Senator Warner Miller iii his speech accepting the vice presidency.

Not one word was said by anyone about Mr. Thomas C. Piatt, notwithstanding the fact that the gentlemen who controlled the proceedings professed to bo more than friendly to the New York man. DUSKY LOVERS Who Excited the Wrath of an Anxious Father. Mr.

Itatcliflfe's Trip from Boston Ends in a Street Fight, an Arrest and Arraignment Before Jnstico Massey. The colored society circles of the Heights are considerably agitated over a little episode that occurred on a street corner late on Monday night, in which several members of one of the first colored families in the city figured prominently. Henry Myers, who for many years has conducted a catering business throughout the city, and who lives in eleaant stylo at 2XH President street, was one of the interested parties. His son and daughter and a young colored gentleman from Boston named John M. RateVUTe were the.

others. it seems that Ratcliffe, who was formerly a resident ot this city and who moved in the best colored society here, became very much attached to tlie caterer's fair daughter, and it is also stated that she returned his affections. However that may be Mr. Ratcliffe was not looked upon with favor by the older Myers and when it became rumored about that the two young people were likely to make a match of it, Mr. Myers became exceedingly wroth and forbade the suitor for his daughter's hand admittance to the house.

It is not known whether this decision on the part of the dusky maiden's papa had the effect of driving her suitor from the city, hut he did go, and what is more he went to tho highly intellectually peopled city of Boston and opened a gentlemen's furnishing store. Letters passed frequently between the young lady and her admirer. In one of them the writer stated that he would make a trip to Brooklyn on Monday night, and it would give him unbounded delight to conduct her to the theater. That the proposition was regarded with favor may lie gleaned from after developments. On the night in question young Miss Myers informed her paternal relative that she was going to make a call on a lady acquaintance, and, after fixing herself up in her best clothes, she left the house.

She did not call on her lady friend, but met her dusky lover instead, and with him visited a local theater. In the meantime the young lady's brother, becoming anxious and at the same time growing suspicions, came to the conclusion that all was not right. He made up his mind to institute an investigation. On visiting his sister's room he found the telltale letter which the fund Mr. BadclifTe had penned.

He imparted the result of his investigation to the elder and together they left the house. They were in a quandary, though, for the note did not say what theater they were to visit, and the indignant and wrathful pair concluded to lay in wait on a neighboring corner until the young people put in an appearance. They took tlieir stand on the corner of President ami Court streets and shortly after 11 o'clock the couple were seen approaching arm in arm. So much engaged were they hi conversation that they approached within a short distance of the indignant relatives of the young woman before they saw tlieui. The elder Myers took his daughter by the arm and hurried her down the street toward her residence, while the son squared himself and without further ado sailed into the objectionable suitor for his sister's hand.

Before either of them had a chance to do the other much damage Officer Wal. who was on the opposite corner, appn ired on tiie si ene and placed both men under arrest and lugged tuom off to the station house. Yesterday afternoon they were arraigned before Justice Massey and lined Jl each for fighting in the streets. The fines were promptly paid. Mr.

Radciift'e was much chagrined at the outcome of his visit to this city and took an early train for Boston. THE REPORTERS' NOTE BOOK. Occurrences of BiWerot Strooklyii and Vicinity. Bertha Wendolin. of Kill North Second street, charged by her husband with habitual intoxication, wa held to answer before Justice Naelier to morrow.

His Honor suggested that they make statements to the Small Park Committee of the Park Commission, and he suid he should attend the meeting. The selection of this site is urged by many residents of the Eastern District and also by President Lewis, of the Brooklyn City Railroad Company, whose Myrtle avenue line extends to it. This small park business 1 as excited interest among reat estate speculators and there is already talk of purchases in the immediate vicinity of property likely to be selected for sites. There has been but one site yet agreed upon, that in the Seventeenth Ward, which the Commissioners decided yesterday to purchase. SAMUEL WOOD'S ESTATE.

A Suit ljr tiie Chiliad' Ojie of tile f'VK alecs. The suit of Rose Poarsall, by guardian, against A. L. Rimonson, T. Sehotiek and Abraham Hewlett, which grows out of the litigation over the estate of the late Samuel Wood, came before Judge Dykmau to day, but went over to permit service of an amended complaint.

Voorhees has been annoyed for over a year by the visits of an old colored woman claiming to be Mrs Lefferts and demanding the sum of tl, 000, 000, which she alleges is withheld by tho Surrogate. Mr. Voorhees sometimes humors the old woman. He was very busy this morning and requested her not to bother him. But I want my money," she said.

"If you do not go away I will have you put said Mr. VoorheeB. "You took my money to Germany with you," and I won't go till I get it." "Officer, put this woman out," said Mr. Voorhees, she is a lunatic." The woman glared at him and laid hold of an inkstand on ho desk weighing over a pound. "Look out.tJudah," cried a lawyer, "she will brain you." Mr.

Voorhees smiled defiantly at the old woman and the officer hurried her out of the room. "Well, I must say you are cool," said the lawyer complimenting Mr. Voorliees. "If that oflicer had not been so quick she might have killed you with that inkstand." "I don't think so," said Voorhees smiling. "Why it weighs two pounds," said the lawyer, and he put his hand on the inkstand to lift it.

"Dash it. the old tiling is screwed down. No wonder you were cool." He did not join Mr. Voorhees, who smiled some more, but left the room as if insulted. CHARGED WITH MALICIOUS MISCHIEF.

A Brooklyn Office Holder's Scalp Taken by the President He Would Not Resign at the Request of Secretary Fairchild. Wasuijsotos, D. January n. The President has removed Appraiser MeMul This 'tion was taken at the request of Secretary Eairehild, who on the of last December asked for MeMullen'B resignation. Mr.

Me Mnllen declined to resign, and yesterday he was notified by the Secretary of his peremptory removal from office. The following is a copy of the correspondence in the case: United States Thearoiiv Department,) Washington, D. C. December til, 1888. Sin I consider that it is for the public interest that you should cease to bo tho United States Appraiser at New York.

I will therefore thank you if yon will at once send me your resignation. Yours respectfully! C. S. FAiuciiild. Jj wiK MiMullen, Appraiser Port uf Xt'io lurk.

Apbaiseh's Office, January 2, 1880. Hon. C. S. Falrclu'kl, tinretary of the Treasury, WashiiiQtun, 1).

It is with profound surprise that I am in receipt of your letter of the 1st in which you state that ynn "consider that it is for the public interest that 5 ou (I) should cease to be the United States Appraiser at New York," and that you will thank me if I will at once send you my resignation. You do not intimate any reasons and I am not aware of any for such a conclusion, but on the contrary my administration of the office has received the warmest commendation of your honored predecessor, shoul 1 have merited your approval and that of the President and I have yet to learn that the conduct of my olhco has not been satisfactory to tho upright importers and business community. If you have any seeming foundation for your conclusion it would be but simple justice, in view of my official record of thirty six years, that I should have an opportunity to lie heard. Since my appearance before the Hale Committee in this city it has been repeatedly announced in the daily press that I was to be removed from office, but I had not believed that such utterances were officially inspired. In view of all the facts and in justice to myself I must decline to tender my resignation, lie spec tf ally yours, Lewis McMullen, Appraiser.

U. S. TltEASURV Depaioik.nt. January 8, Sin I have duly received your letter of January 2, in which you decline to tender your resignation as United States Appraiser at New lork. I have felt it my duty, therefore, to ask the President to remove you from that office.

You ask that you may have an opportunity to be heard. It would be useless to grant this request, because my opinion that the good of the service requires that you should cease to be the United States Appraiser at New York is based not upon any specific acts of your own but upon my general belief that either through age or some other cause you cannot properly judge of the qualification of your subordinates or supervise their work. You allude to your testimony before the committee, of which Senator Hale was chairman. I do not seek your removal because you testified before that committee, it was your duty to do so when called upon for tnat purpose, but I do recognize the force of the criticism which has been made because I caused certain changes in your department of the service in opposition to your judgment and wishes. Itwas bad administration on my part to attempt reforms in your office, which you neither thought necessary nor approved, while still permitting you to remain at the head of that office.

This fault of mine came about because, (whiic I was confident at the time that these changes should ho made and am now certain that my only mistake was in not making more) I believed you to be honest and to have the public interests at heart, ami because I had grown to feel a personal regard for you, which niadu mo too tender of your feelings. I had hoped, until recently, that matters might go on fairly under you during the short time that I was to be the head of this department, an 1 that I might be pared the pain of asking for your removal, but facts have come to my attention which convince me that a number of reforms must at once be begun in the New York Apprais er's Department. Judging by experience I eannot hope for intelligent and sympathetic co operation therein from you. I cannot repeat the mistake of attempting the reforms contrary to your judgment while you are the responsible head of the office and therefore, in default of your resig nation, with sincere regret, have requested that you be removed. Bespeetfully youis, S.

EArucim.p, Secretary. Mr. A. B. Stearns, the United States Appraiser at Boston, has been temporarily placed in charge of the New York Appraiser's office.

The removal of Appraiser McMullen will be followed hy other changes in his office. Mr. McMullen 's appointment to the office which, he has been removed from was very unsatisfactory to the local Democratic They did not know him when he was appointed, but aftsr making inquiries as to his record as a Democrat found that he had lived in Brooklyn many years; that he was an elderly gentleman who had never been actively identified with his party; that during the years of his residence here he had novel voted at a Democratic primary. Ho was suspected of having voted against some of the candidates of the gang" controlling the Democratic organization, and so his appointment was regarded here with displeasure. 1'inally the local leaders decided to make the best of the situation, and eventually succeeded in securing several appointments from Mr.

McMullen. As a mark of their appreciation of the recognition he gave them Mr. McMullen's son was appointed an officei in the Court of Sessions. at the appraiser's office. There was much mysterious whispering and many conferences of the small army of employes at tho Appraiser's department.

402 Washington street, New York, when an Eaoi.e reporter called there this afternoon, and it was plain to he seen that they knew of Mr. McMnlleu's removal as soon as he did himself, in fact they knew of it from the many reporters that called before Mr. McMullen had received his official notification, for that didn't arrive until the o'clock mail. To an Eagle reporter ho said he knew of no cause for his removal. It was true that of the men under him lUo were Republicans, and he had refused to remove them because they were men of integrity and were expert appraisers.

Mr. McMullen had always been in lino with Civil Sesvico reform and never removed a man without cause. He had himself been in the office thirty six years, thirty three years as an examiner and three years as appraiser. He was first appointed under a Whig administration Fillmore's, in At that time he was a Democrat and was a Democrat still. He was appointed appraiser by President Cleveland, April 2:1, the recommendation of Abram S.

Hewitt. Who his successor might be he had no idea. His nomination must be confirmed by the Senate and in the interregnum he supposed he would continue to aet as goods were piling in and must be appraised. His removal from office, however, Mr. McMullen understood to be forthwith.

IHeitinnn Offer to the Husband of the Woman BBe SKindcrcd. Eohert Kcilnian, who is employed in White's Fertilizing Works, on Barren Island, was arrested yesterday in Now York by United States Deputy Marshal Bernhart, on a charge of sending obscene letters through the mails to Mrs.

He said that if Weigle would namo a place of meeting he would he present with hH breast bared, that tho injured husband might idioothim dead. After sending this letter he wrote Mrs.

Their Parents Refractory and Uu niP.nasre.ablc So They Organized an Ex pedition, but Dida't Get as Far as Florida.

Albert Stevens, aged 13, of 703 Fulton street; Arthur Bedding, aged Hi, of 350 Grand avenue; John W. Fleischman, aged L4, of 4UU Adelphi street; William Clemmart, an errand boy Holm's shoe store, in Fulton street, and Frederick and Harlow Sparks, of 03 South Portland avenue, aged 11 and 1U years, respectively, arc bov who have had a good deal of trouble with their parents lately. Stevens' father keeps a sporting goods store, where fishing hues and guns and pistols and amtiiiinition are for sale; the Sparks hoys' mother is a well known physician. Bedding's father is an artist and the parent of the other boys are in equally good circumstances. In fact, the parents are people of wealth, and ought to know enough to behave themselves, but it is the same old story over again.

Ever since the world began boys have had unruly parents, and though things are getting a little better now, it is probaple that there always will be more or less trouble. It would be unjust to pick out any one of the parents for special rebuke. They were one as had asthc other. They had ridiculous ideas about education and insisted on their boys going to No. 11 School Here the boys found that unreasonable and tyianuical teachers expected them to study reading, writing, arithmetic, spelling, grammar, history, geography and a lot of other foolish trash which would never bo the least use in the world to youths whose minds were made up to devote tlieir lives to hunting and adventure.

Naturally the boys rebelled and two of them were recently expelled from 11 for what the teachers were pleased to designate as FleiKchmaim, who was one of these, was then sent to Dr. Carpenter's school. School was bad enough, but it was not the only trouble. The hoys' parents wanted them to keep their feet dry and their clothes clean and whole, and carry pocket handkerchiefs, and be in tho house hy 10 o'clock at night. They also objected to their sons' reading dime novels, although these are everywhere recognized as text hooks of the profession they had chosen.

Just before Christmas Bedding and Stevens and the Sparks were gathered in Johnson's stable on Hanson place and tiie talk turned on their troubles. All acknowledged that they had no hope of improvement, tlieir parents were getting more outrageously set in their ways than ever. Bedding was the most experienced of the party for he had run away from home twice and once got as far as Flatlands. and therefore had considerable knowledge of the world. I tell you what we'll do, boys," he said, "we'll all go away together'" The other boys agreed and then came a long discussion of ways and means and destination and objects.

Coney IsIrikI was thought of at first, but Itcdding and Stevens, who hail been at Coney Island several times, reported that ihc wild Indians were all gone from there and bears and wolves and lions and tigers were disgustingly scarce. So Coney Island was Kiven up and finally Florida was proposed. Florida suggested alligators and Stevens and Fleischmanii were unite learned on the subject, while the Sparks had often seen pictures of the reptiles. "Alligators, ihu very biggest of 'em don't cost nothin" down in Florida," said Fleischmanii. "They run wild and anybody that likes can have them.

That's because they's so many. Up hero they ain't none an' I know a man that'll pay ft 00 for one big fellow. We'd easy ketch one a day. That would be apiece for us. On some days we could make more." ''Why don't tho people down there do that?" asked little Sparks.

'Cause they ain't unto the scheme." "How are we going to ketch them?" "Oh, that's all right. Sparksey. Me an' Fleisch an' Stevens'U take care of that, won't we said Bedding. "They's all kinds of ways of ketehin' alligators. The alligators, yon know, lie around on tlie ground an' all you got to do is to walk up to one an' hold a bottle of chloroform under his nose.

When he keels over you load him on a railroad train an' the first thing he know he'll wake up an' find himself in New York. Then another way is to take a hardwood stick about a foot an' a half long and sharpened at both ends and shove it into an alligator's mouth when he opens up to swallow you. When he shuts his mouth on the stick he can't get it open again, and there you have him. Yon just lead him along. If you find more alligators than you want to keep alive you kill I hem ami sell their skin The way to kill ihem is to dive under then and cut them open with a knife as they are swimming in the water.

If you want to catch an alligator in the water you jump on bis back and put your fingers in his eyes. He will let you steer hint around anywhere, then." With so erudite a leader it seemed impossible for the expedition to fail and accordingly the boys determined to make a start for Florida pretty soon. 'I hey waul to equip them ich'es first or they would have i off weeks ago. On Monday morning last they all got up before daylight, to the. intense a toiiishmcnt of their parents, and by o'clock the expe lo'cm had t.

from the stable, carrying two i n.it:. revolvers of average, caliber, two revolvers of very small caliber, four small and one very big knife and "SO. The Sparks boys had between ihem and each wore two suits of clothes. Stevens carried an old suit of clothes with him. He did not want to spoil his good suit while killing the gators.

Itcdding carried a pair of rubbers to save himself from catching cold when he went wading in the water after the reptiles, and Fleischmann bore an umbrella for several reasons, one of which was that if a person is attacked hy five or six 'gators at once he can't do better than to open an umbrella and scare them off. The boys walked hard, and by afternoon they were walking along the Pennsylvania Bailroad track eight miles from Mew York. A long freight train came by and stopped. They asked the brake man to give them a ride. He fold them no, but they ran hack to the rear and got in an empty car.

The train took them to New N. and preparatory to walkingon to Philadelphia they went to the po. olliee to send letters to their parents to ease tlieir minds. li I1KIIV fro 111 tilC UOSt office it 1111111 followed them and asked them if they were not strangers. They acknowledged they were from Brooklyn grabbed Spark.

There they were introduced to the chief of police, who gave them a grand supper and hung up hammocks for them in his room. He was mean enough, though, to telegraph to their parents and they were delivered over yesterday morning.

Mr. Stevens and Mrs. Sparks going alter them. The boys were brought back to Brooklyn yesterday morning, and an E.uu.i: re irter. who saw them to day, found them somewhat weary in body but complacent in mind.

Young Bedding is due at his home to night. His mother got a postal card from him, dated yesterday. HE UNDERSTOOD A' OATH.

The Tragic Fate of a Brooklyn Woman Far Avray from Home Her Name Yas Julia Hoive and She Attended Plymouth Church. Special to the Eagle. Giuxi) Havkn, January 0. On the edge of a lonely and densely wooded swamp ten miles from here, surrounded on three sides by a bleak prairie and bordering on Lake Michigan on tho fourth, a farmer stumbled accidentally across the body of a beautiful young woman, lying face upward in a tent, with a huge knife plunged to the hilt in her heart. Beside the body was found a poeketbook, the contents of which proved that the name of the woman was Julia Howe, that she had resided in Brooklyn, N.

and that she had attended Tiym onth Church. There is an yet absolutely no further clew either to the identity of the woman or to the perpetrator of the mysterious crime. The big marsh is one of the most lonesome spots on earth at this time of the year. It is almost impossible to penetrate the swamp. The ground is covered with a network of vines and brambles and on every side are morasses in which an unwary explorer sinks into soft mud to his shoulders.

A farmer living about a mile and a half west of this his marsh missed a fine span of yearling colts and after looking the country over in every direction outside of the marsh decided to explore its silent and not inviting regions to sec if he could find any trace of his lost animals. After encountering many dillieulties he readied the edge of the marsh, where thousands of acres of open country stretched out before him. A little distance in advance he saw an army tent of ordinary size. It was stan ling about twelve rods in the marsh and there was nowhere a sign of life. There a ro no houses for miles around.

The tent, although it was evening, seemed to he deserted. No smoke ascended from it. There were no domestic animals around it. The scene was entirely desolate. The farmer, somewhat apprehensive, gripped his trusty Winchester rille.

a little firmer and cautiously ap proached the tent. On reaching it he found it to be well staked down and firmly tied at the entrance. The farmer shouted several times, but received no response. He then untied the thongs that fastened the entrance to the tent and looked in. All vi as dark.

The farmer lighted a match and shipped inside the tent. A horrible scene met his gaze. There upon the blanket lay the corpse of a onco beautiful young woman. The eyes wide open and staring upward presented a sigiit which for the moment almost caused him to fall down in fear. He lighted a second match and glanced hastily around the interior of tho tent.

The dim light revealed the handle of a huge knife sticking up from her breast, showing that its long, ugly blade had been plunged through her body in tho region of her heart, causing instant death. He picked up a large poeketbook and an old newspaper or two in the tent, and making the quickest time on record through the swamp he reached homo on a dead run about 0 P. M. and then hitched up a team anil drove with tho news to this town. The poeketbook afforded only the meager clews given above.

The woman was not known here, nor has any one in this country been reported. The murder had been committed sometime. It is not known how long the tent had been in the swamp, as that section is not visited by the farmers. No human beings were, supposed to be in the swamp. Who the murdered woman's companion was, whether white man or Indian, remains a mystery.

A searching party has gone out after more information. The town is in a state of excitement. An Eaoi.c. reporter asked cx Pastor Halliday to day whether he knew Julia Howe. He said ho did not know, any woman of that name.

The church records do not reveal her name among the members of Plymouth, the Bethel or Ply month League. Three is no family of Howes connected with the church. Some years ago there were two members of the Bethel named Howe. The name of one appeared on the record as Carrie A. Howe and her address was given as Bridge street; the other was J.

Howe, and her address was given as :2 Liberty street. At Bridge street it was stated hy the occupants that no Carrie Howe had lived there within their recollection. No one in the neighborhood remembers Carrie Howe. At 2 Liberty street it was stated that a Miss or Mrs. Howe had formerly lived in a house now torn down to make way for the bridge extension.

Tho reporter's informant said she understood or Howe had moved to Boerum place, but she didn't know the number. Undertaker Bennett, whose place is opposite "4'J Bridge street, told the reporter ho once knew a Ilowc.whoafterwai'd became Mrs. William Newlin. She lived, he said, in Boom at Livingston street. Mrs.

Newlin was found. She said she was the daughter of the tate Captain Howe, who moved from Brooklyn to Portland, Me. She had no sister nor step sister named Julia Howe, nor had she ever known or heard of a Julia Howe. She said she never heard of Carrie A. ilowe, and none of her family ever lived at either f'i Bridge street, or Liberty street.

There is no Julia Howe in the Directory. SCORES KILLED By Falling Pittsburg Buildings in a Cyclone. Twenty Dead Hotlios Taken 1lie Kuius mid the Full Story of the Disaster Not Yel Told The Storm Moving Eastward. Washington, D. January o.

JACK DELANCY WON' TIIE FIGHT. lie Knocked Out J'ratiit Iturlie, of T'liiladc lplii.i, in Four KoiiihIm. The long pending prize fight between Jack De laney, the light weight champion of Crreenpoint, and Prank Burke, of Philadelphia, took place five miles from Long Island City about 1 o'clock this morning. The fight was to have taken place at a village in New Jersey on Saturday night, but was postponed on account of tho rain. Both men are about the same weight and age, but Burke had the advantage in height and reach, while Delancy was more solidly built and possessed more main strength.

Each man tipped the scales at pounds. The timekeeper was Dan Gallagher and Bob Em bull was referee. In the first round both men began to warm themselves by sparring, no blows of any account being given. Delaneey led off in the second round and landed his right with telling effect on Burke's nose, drawing the blood. The third round was the most exciting, both men doing hard hitting.

Burke got in a couple of heavy body blows on Delaneey, who landed twice with telling effect on Burke's face. In the fourth and last round both men went at it like tigers, landing on each other a number of terrible blows. Delaneey finally landed one on Burke's jugular vein, completely knocking him out. The fight, which lasted fifteen minutes, was then awardc.l to Delaneey. A purse of was given to the winner.

John L. Sullivan Visits His Brooklyn Friends. He Smokes a Great Many Prinlis a Little Vichy, is Admired by a Jtliiliitndc and Goes Kaek to Boston. Big George. Sterling stood with big John Sullivan and big George Sterling was bigger than the pugilist.

He wore a great big ulster and so did the pride of Boston. Sterling's great big ulster had a big collar and ihe champion's ulster had a bigger one. Big John L. drank vichy and big George Sterling followed suit. A big crowd looked at tlie two big men in big Supervisor Martin F.

Conly's saloon, at the corner of Sands and Pearl streets, between 0 and 7 o'clock last evening. W'hen Charley Johnston returned from Toronto yesterday, lifter arranging the match with Kil ra ill's representatives, he left the big fellow in Jim Wakely's, at the corner of Sixth avenue and Forty second street, New York, with the understanding that he was to return to Boston by the 4 P. M. train. But tlie big fellow felt kittenish over having at last arranged a match, and thought he'd kick up his heels in a quiet way in Brooklyn, where he has many personal friends.

So, jumping into cab with Wakely, he rattled down town and over the bridge and up to Johnston's store, which was soon surrounded hy a crowd that kept Captain Eason and Detective Noonau busy. Mr. Johnston was said to bo at Conly's. There Sullivan and Wakely were driven. Mr.

Johnston had left, but Superintendent of Streets Sterling was there and was as effusive in his greeting as he was liberal in his spending. Sullivan, too, spent considerable money, invariably laying a two and a one dollar bill on the bar when it came his turn to treat. He usually took cigars, having become an inveterate smoker since he east aside the cup, but occasionally a small sip of vichy moistened his lips. He looked much better than when here some weeks ago. Then he was quite pale, but yesterday his face was more ruddy.

He had east aside his high silk hat for a derby. Not about fight, but of elevated roads, engineers and the like, were Sullivan, Wakely and Sterling conversing when the Eaui.k reporter edged through the awed, gaping and staring crowd that filled the store, "Well, by gnm. you're after after me again, are you said Sullivan. The. reporter said he was and elicited this: "Well.

Who will lie with you "We haven't made any combination yet In fact, I don'tjknow who I can get." Will you invite Jack Dempsey 7" "John, I wouldn't answer that yet," interposed Mr. Wakely, but Sullivan replied: "Dempsey's got his business to attend to; he couldn't give that up for $50 a week." Where will your tour extend the reporter asked. Well, even that hasn't been decided upon. I would like to give you a show here in Brooklyn if it could lie arranged.

I did before, you remem bere, one New Year's eve, in the Academy, about five years ago. Tom Sidebotham and poor Ed the comedian, arranged that, but the business has been done to death of lutein Brooklyn, and I don't blame tin authorities for stopping it." you and Kilrain fight "if anything should happen to prevent our lighting it will he no fault of mine, if this tight docs not take place I will take the oilier fellow's as. a forfeit just, as sure as I'm talking to you." Here the clamoring for handshakes by hero worshipers ended tlie interview, and soon afterward Sullivan and Wakely were driven back to Johnston's. Thither the crowd followed, and until 1 0 o'clock the bartenders there were kept hustling. Arthur Tumley, who was present, said the.

only ones at present thought of for Sullivan's combination were Put Killeu and ike Weir. The fact that the fight was to take place within 200 miles of New Orleans did not necessarily mean that the battle would be in the State of Louisiana. Most probably the light would lie near Mississippi City, where Sullivan hammered Hyatt. Sullivan wilt go to that neighborhood to train, so as to become acclimated, and sports iu New York and elsewhere will have to or thereabouts for the tip as to the exact location, if it can so be arranged. The naming of the fighting ground wiil he tossed for in Brooklyn at Mr.

Johnston's place. Sullivan took the 1 1 o'clock train for Boston last night. A I'M'MlSEIt FOlt ST. J01IXLAXD. President Ray to day secured the appointment of a plumber at St.

Johnland. Charles Peevy is the man. When he was nominated Colonel Gott said that in the interest of Civil Servi reform he proposed to promote and named Frank Hutchinson. The discussion that followed showed that Peevy was a skilled mechanic and Hutchinson a nurse. Commissioner Hynes then voted with President Ray for Peevy.

HER LIFE SAVED Because She Couldn't Meet the Kan She Jilted. He Waited f.ir Her in Lon Island City With a Loaded Revolver and Finally Shot Himself. Charles Englebaeh, the young German who shot himself in Long island City late last night, was still alive this afternoon, hut his death is only a matter of a few hours. Investigation shows clearly that Englebaeh's suicide was not only deliberately planned, but makes clear the fact that he intended to murder his sweetheart, Bella, Iverriagan, as well. Englebaeh and Miss Kerriagan both hoarded with McDermntton Yernon avenue, Long Island City.

After eating supper last evening Englebaeh went out for a walk and, when he returned, stoo outside and sent for Mi.s Kerriagan. Mrs. MeDcr.u.itt refused to allow file girl to go out and, lifter waiting a few minutes, she retired. Englebaeh went into the backyard and placing a revolver to his breast fired. The bullet pierced through his lungs, lodged in his back and has not been extracted.

When found the revolver still had one unused cartridge in it. Engelbach had been paying attention to Miss Kerrigan for some time, and while she did not encourage him, she did not discourage him until Sunday, when he asked her to marry him and she refused. Since that time he has acted strangely and threatened her life and his own. It was on account of these threats lhat Mrs. Me Dermott refused to permit Miss Kerrigan to go out to meet Engelbach last night.

Engelbach purchased only last evening the pistol with which he shot himself. He is 31 years of ago and Miss Kerrigan is 1 H. Miss Kerrigan, who is nursing her erratic lover, refused this afternoon to talk about the affair. A BIG NEW JERSEY FIRE. Tlie Village of Ilutlicrforcl 1Osscs a Waxen HllildillgK.

BuTiniUFOitP, N. January 0. This town was visited by a conflagration which completely destroyed a dozen buildings before it could be checked. The fire broke out in the upholstery establishment of John Baumeister, which is near the depot. Baumeister had been ill for a few days and at 1:45 this morning he arose for the purpose of taking some medicine.

In his attempt to reach the medicine he upset a lighted kerosene lamp. The burning oil spread over the tablecloth and carpet and iu a moment the room was in a blaze, Mr. Baiimeisicr ii.ii'rowly escaping with his life. In a few moments the building, a wooden structure, was a prey to the flames. The fire department could not check them and the butcher shot) of Henry Badger, which was next door to the burning building, was reached by the fire and was soon a mass of flames.

was from Carlstadt and Lind hurst, but when engines arrived from those places George Bice's photographic studio was on fire and the building was badly wrecked. A quantity of stamps and furniture in the post office were destroyed, but the maiJs were saved. The club house of the Rutherford Wheelmen, together with a number of bicycles; Lempert's stationery and candy store, John Reinharfs tailor shop, John Bulger's residence and stables, Jliller's tailor store and Lawyer Ely's office were also destroyed. Brunei' 's jewelry store was partly destroyed. The losses will aggregate about 000.

MURRAY WANTS HEAVY DAMAGES from the SSroolt! i( Knilroad Company for JTiOsm of IBia Ieff. Counselor Thomas E. Pearsall has begun an action in the City Court for Thomas Murray against tho Brooklyn City Railroad Company for $:10,000 damages for the loss of his left leg. Murray was a passenger on the front of a Myrtle on the of last month. When near Jay street he was thrown off and the wheels passed over the leg, crushing it so badly that amputation was necessary.

Tho papers have just been served. Mr. Pearsall's former partner, ex Judge Samuel D. Morris, is still the counsel for the company, and when the ease comes to trial the interesting spectacle will be presented of the two old partners arrayed on opposing sides. They have always fought together heretofore, and the changed relationship will make the trial interesting.

Railroad Employes and Officials Still Stubborn A Series of Strikes or a General Tic Up Imminent. According to well informed railroad men connected with the local surface lines, the negotiations between the companies and the men which have been in progress for a week past are rapidly drawing to a conclusion, which will result in either a series of strikes or a general strike throughout the city. The terms offered to tho Brooklyn City Road in the circular sent out by the Knights of Labor just before the new year have been placed before all the other companies in Brooklyn, and have as yet been acceded to by none. The officials of the companies are united in their determination not to assent to the conditions proposed, while the men are equally firm in their insistence that these shall hold. The Executive Committee of District Asscmbly No.

75, headed by Master Workman Coopey, met President Lewie, of the Brooklyn City road, yesterday afternoon to return the answer of his employes to the circular issued to them by the company on Saturday. The committee's reply was as foreshadowed in yesterday's Eaolu, and to the complete surprise of President Lewis the men had rejected his offer and empowered the committee to insist upon a compliance with the propositions they had themselves promulgated. To an Eagle reporter this Emorning Mr. Lewis said hia meeting with the committee had been harmonious throughout, although no settlement was reached Bince he could not make any new overtures. "Did the committee explain to what extent the sentiment against tho terms of your circular obtained among the men asked the reporter.

"They told me that only thirty seven of our men were in favor of accepting," replied Mr. Lewis. How many men were entitled to vote on the question?" "Well, wo have on all our lines." "What was the outcome of the conference "The committee said they would reconsider the proposition they had made us and lay it before the DiHtrict Assembly to night, and to morrow morning we will know just what they intend to do. In the afternoon, at our annual meeting, the directors will consider the matter." "Whatmodificationswill the committee make "I do not know whether they will make any modifications or not." When questioned on other points Mr. Lewis refused to say anything, further than declaring that he did not care to anticipate the action of the directors of his company.

Superintendent Harris, of the Nostrand Avenue line, said this morning that nothing had been heard from the representatives of the employes of his company since they left the original circular at his office. They were, however, to call upon him to morrow for an answer. The company will not, he sajd, accede to all tho demands made in this document, although what particular features they would, talte exception to, he refused to state. The Executive Committee of District Assembly 75 met PrcHidcntrartridge, of the DeKalb avenue line, yesterday, hut failed to reach a settlement and will confer with him again to morrow. President Edwin Beers, of the Broadway Bail road Company, has sent to the committee tho rejection by the Board of Directors of their proposition.

He agreed, however, to have more trippers put on. Local Assembly 5,704, composed of employes of the Broadway lines, have declined the offer of President Beers and given the Executive Committee full power to tie up the road unless their own conditions arc complied with. They will demand a final answer to morrow President Drayton, of the Jay and Smith street line, was seen yesterday by the committee and informed that his men would not consent to the addition of another trip to their day's work, as he had proposed, but were willing to abide by last year's agreement. An answer from the company is expected to morrow. Acting President H.

W. Slocum, of the Crosstown Boad, was informed yesterday by the Executive Comniitteo that several features of his treatment of the employes must lie modified, and that the committee had been authorised to insist on the terms of the circular which was sent to all the companies. President William Richardson, of the Atlantic avenue road, received the committee yesterday afternoon at o'clock and was asked if he was ready to discuss the circular they had sent him. Mr. Richardson refused to do this unless the last section were stricken out, which relates to the case of Driver Charles Gallitgher.

It appears. according to the men's story, that Gallagher's car became scratched one day and when called to an account for it he denied any knowledge as to how the injury was done and refused to sign a paper, it is said, which the foreman gave him, admitting that he did know about tho matter. He was taken off a regular car and put on the Butler street line at the bottom of the extra list. The case of George Pierson, who was appointed November at the request of Assemblyman Longley, was also in debatd. Pierson, it is said, showed pa tiers certifying to his good character and railroad experience, which included an eighteen months' term of service with Superintendent Sullivan, of the crosstown road, from which he resigned.

Three days after his appointment Pierson was discharged, although for what reason he could not find out. He is supposed to bo blacklisted. The local i lo up of employe; of the Fifth avenue, Ninth street, Fifteenth street, Seventh avenue, Bergen street, Butler street and Crosstown (canary) lines, all met on Monday night and decided to stand out against Mr. Richardson and insist on the terms of their circular and the reinstatement of the men above referred to. The committee will give Mr.

Richardson another and a last chance to morrow. Master Workman Coopey, chairman of the Executive Committee, expressed his views of the situation to an Eaih.is reporter as follows: "The officials of the various street railways of the city have availed themselves of the opportunity afforded them by the press of Brooklyn, to mould public sentiment in their favor upon questions of dispute between them and their employes. Theemployc i are held up to public view as enjoying an enviable state of happiness in having such kind and considerate employers as th" railway officials. If we believe the mpioyers' statements they undoubtedly are. According to the same unbiased opinion, the sole aim of the street car companies is to accommodate the public pationizing their lines, and earn sufficient to pay liberal wages to their employes.

Tlie question of dividends seems to be a secondary consideration merely, with the stockholders, many of whom are, no doul.it, like the pious deacon of the Atlantic iivenno Railway Company, pillars of the church. Now it is absolutely true that the condition of street car employes is at present a happy one compared to what obtained three years ago; but the nuhlic memory can not be so defective as to have forgotten that this amelioration in the condition of this important class of our working people was brought about not through the philanthropic actions of the kind and considerate st ockholders and railway officials referred to, but was on the contrary wrung from them ohly by the pel sistent and' determined effort on the part of the overworked employes, backed as it was hy the sympathy and endorsement of the merchants and general public of this city. We believe that wo are just in our demands or we would not make them." It was reported to day on reliable authority that the Nostrand avenue and the DeKalb avenue roads would he tied up within twenty four hours unless their managers yielded to tho knights' proposition. The undoubted design of the latter, as made apparent by the moves they have made within the last few days, is to coerce tho smaller companies into a compliance, in order the more easily to bring the larger ones to terms, Meanwhile, a question that is being considerably discussed is as to the vote taken on President Lewis' circular, which, to say the least, is regarded as very suspicions looking. Many of the old employes have been outspoken in favor of a renewal of last year's term and some of them go so far as to hint at a doctoring of the secret ballot held on Saturday night.

It is absurd, they declare, to say that only out of men voted for the renewal of the old compact. THE MORRISON ROBERTSON CASE ENDED. Judge Jtasiscy Hears the Up iinrt ECcNcrvcN His Decision. The Morrison Robertson criminal libel action was concluded to day in the Butier Street Police Court before Justice Massey. Mr.

Charles Robertson, the defendant, was called to the stand as the first witness for the defense. He testified that he was a bookkeeper in the employ of the New Y'ork Central and Hudson River Railroad Company, was 2 4 years of age and a resident of Brooklyn. He admitted that he was a member of the Home and Country Protection Brotherhood of A merican Workmen and was a member of the Executive Committee of that body and of the Live titrating Committee appointed by Mr. Grace, the president of the association, to make an investigation of its affairs. lie said that he had always strenuously opposed the adoption of that portion of the report which referred to Mr.

Morrison and upon which the present suit was based from the very first. The Bey. Charles P. McCarthy, the defendant in a similar action in which Mr. Morrison is the plaintiff, next testified.

He said that at all of the meetings at which he and Robertson were present. Mr. Robertson had protested against the action of the committee with regard to Mr. Morrison. The counsel then summed up the case and Justice Massey reserved his decision.

HE 111 THE HAT. Louis Vogt, arrested yesterday on a warrant, was arraigned in Justice Naeher's Court this morning and held in $500 bail to answer on Tuesday next the charge of grand larceny. Henry Weber, of 40 Seholes street, the complaining witness, deposed that Vogt roomed with him December and went away about .1 o'clock next morning, and that deponent when he awoke missed a diamond pin and other articles worth about When Vogt was arrested Weber identified the hat he wore as part of the stolen property.
