NOT RESPECTED BY THE POLICE. LOUIS SOCIALISTS. MUNICIPAL. A BRISK ATTACK CANNOT MVCLGB OFFICIAL SECRETS. Tho Court Sustains Coilcctor niaclK In Refusing to Froduco his Kccvrda.

SIGNED A DEED THE ALDERMEN. (HlOUi EU1 IM AN AFFBAY AND A CHASE. Prompt Sorrice Rendered By all but tho Ambulance Authorities. Louis A. Skidmore, aged 35 years, of 198 Kosciusko stroot, sat dozing on the stops of tho Kings County Bank the corner of Broadway and Fourth stroot, at 3 o'clock yosterday morning while waiting for a Tompkins avonuo car on Its trip from tho forriea.

William Kandolph, aged ii yoars, a ticket taker In the Grand street Museum, camo along In company with another Tiio Father ol tbo t.tito Jobn mulligan Complains Against an Officer. Mr. Mulligan, the father of John Mulligan, who diedlaatweok from tho offocts of a clubbing givon him by Ofllcor Stovons, callod at tho Clymer street Station Houso Saturday and complaino I to Captain Bronuan of tho allegod language used by ono of iiis officers in reference to tho docensod. Have you an ofllcor in your station house named Wassorman?" asked Mr. Mulligan.

"I havo," answoi'od tho captain. Wasserman made an improper remark in refer once to my poor dead boy John. IIo said tho day aftor tho clubbing that if ho waa in Stovons' place ho would have killed my boy outright." hoard that ho mado somo such remark, but ho donios it, and I would sooner beliovo my ofllcor than outsiders," replied tho captain. But I can prove that ho said so," replied Mr. Mulligan.

Tho fact remains," rotortod tho captain, that Wassorman did not arrest, striko or interfere witli your son in any way. Such a remark on tho part of an officer would bo injudicious, but then tho police entertained no respect for him as you yourself had him looked up and sent to prison once. Whon you had no friendly fooling for him, you could not expoct others to have any." MUCH MiXED. Tho Situation in Lane. Red Hook Many Technical Problems Addinff to the General Confusion The Major Studying the Status of tho Slomberg.

The Board of Education as at present constituted holds its last meeting to morrow, under an adjournment mado at the regular Juno mooting for somo unoxpiained purpose, but presumably to fight ovor tho rulos. Tho iiftoon members who wero appointed by Mayor Low In 18S3 to sorvo until 1880 have a technical point in their favor, if thoy want to rest on it, for a year moro of membership. Mayor Low expected thorn to retire in 1880; Mayor Whitney ia advised that they should havo gone out In 18S5. Aa thoy did not go out then, thoy coma undor tho law which says: If tho Mayor should refuse or neglect for a porlod of thirty days after the expiration of the torm of any ofllcer to mako au appointment thon aud in that caso such refusal shall bo adjudged and doomed to be in all respects equivalent to and taken as an express appointment of tho commissioner or othor officer who may at the time bo holding said office. Tho question is: Do thoso intondod by Mayor Low to retire in 1S80 proporly hold over until 1887, because in 1885 Mayor Low took no action in thoir case Tho strict constructionists say "yea," and affirm that the result of Mayor Low's inaction, no mattor how that camo about, is to keep hU threo year appointees iu for four years.

It is not believed that thoro is any disposition on the part of those Intended by Mayor Low to retire in IPSO, to hold beyond tho time intended by tho goooamor thread of his involuntary neglect to act upon their cases In 18S5, believing as ho did that ho had coustruod the law rightly. Another curious feature of tho muddle la presented by tho consideration of the 1883 group, which by tho mutation now in progress bocomes the 1887 cluster, and which began i eccontric course first in Juno 188.1. Tho fiftoon wero then appointod for throo years nnd reappointed in 1885. It Is argued now, if strict construction is the motto at the City Hall, that thoir first term expired In 1884, and by reason of tho same neglect of tho Mayor to act thon, they becamo monibors again after au expiration of thlrly days, Just as it is claimed tho 1880 mon be camo reappointed mombors lu 1885, and that thoir term naturally expires this year. ft is true that Mayor Low mado tho appointments in tills group in 18S5 for a three years' term, but if the prosent view is tho correct one ho had no power then to doal with tho group, because tho law had already taken caro of thorn In 1881, by roaaou of tho neglect noted.

As to tho 18S7 group, upon whoso successors tho Mayor is now supposod to bo figuring, aro still other difficulties. This group was originally appointed iu January, 1832. Tho law says thoy shall hold for two years. Mayor Low appointed thotn to fill out the terms of fifteen who had boon holding ovor since the previous June, tho June of 1881, thus intending that thoy should retire In ISSt, as they did, when ho reappointed them or their successors for another three years, or until 18S7. It i3 now claimed that Mayor Low could appoint only for two years and it appears that in this caso ho accidentally complied with the law, or camo very near to it, for tho fiftoon he named in January, 18S2, wero bofore him again in 1881, although not until June.

As tho thirty day limit had then expired, tho query now arising ia whethor his neglecting to act in January or February, 1881, did not causo tho reappointment of this flfloon for two years, and whether Mayor Whitnoy's neglect to act in January or Fobruary, 1886, did not cause their terms to bo extended to 1888. The Mayor Is getting plenty of assistance in piecing out this technical crazyquilt. Manyambi tious gontlemon aro turning up, aud tho Board Is watching oagerly the current of events. HE WAS RUNNING AWAY FROM IIIS WIFE. Tne Bridsre Police Tliou(rIit IHo Wanted to Jump from tbc Structure.

This morning, about 10 o'clock, Officer Kano saw a man on the promenade of tho brldgo, near tho Now York towor, behaving In a very peculiar manner. Suddenly he climbod up on the structure above tho car tracks and tried to cross over to the roaday. The ofllcor caught him and took him to tho Sands street polico station, whoro ho gave his name as Frederick Gr'oth, a furrier, residing at 174 Attoruoy street, and employed at 100 Gold streot. IIo doniod that ho wlalied to Jump from tho bridge, and said ho was trying to escape from his wifo, who was Jealous and chasing him. Tho mju was just recovering from a long debauch and, aftor a leoturo from Captain Ward, he was allowed to go.

Thovo is overy indication t.hatPro3ldont Cleveland Is regaining tho popularity with his party which ho seemed tp lose by his partialis to iiugv, uiupom and his Blowncss iu removing Republicans from office. In New York tho work of turning Republicans out of office and replacing thorn with Democrats is to procoed more rapidly aud this, it appears, is an that is needed to mako tho Administration popular with its own party.

At tho Custom Houso it is announced that a clean swoop is to ho rnado of all of fensive partisans and this will includo most of the Republicans iu tho service. Sinco Colloctor Heddon assumed office, elovon months ago, ho has made 207 appointments aud tiio removals number many moro, as there are eighty vacancies to ue mioa Most of tho aoDolntmouts havo beon non competitive aud the selections havo Invariably beon of Democrats in good standing. Tho only criticism from a party point of view is that tho men havo for tho most part beon taken from ono local faction, the County Democracy, but tho removals aro now to oxtond to the Civil Service nlnccs. The executive oRicials aro waiting for a lareo Civil Service list from which to mako telec tions and after the examinations to behold this and noxt month will, as soon as possible, romovo the partisan liopublicans and nil their places with Mmnr, f. nin the C'l il Set'vico list.

Tho naval offlco. which is under tho direction of tho Mug wump naval officer, Colbert, seems to be outsido of this movement, as Is also tho 1'ost umce uuuor uio Mr. Pearson, but there i3 scarcely a doubt that beforo tho next Presidential election rolls around a majority of tho office holders in Mew York and throughout the nation win be Democrats. The Civil Servico Inherited by tho Administration lias boon tho growth of twenty four years of Republican ruloand cannot bo dismissed in a day or a year. The work of removing Republicans noces earily requires time.

Under this law llussoy was retired iu 18S3. In January last a question arose as to whether ttio twenty years meant an unbroken period of servico or not.

Made Upon Mayor Whitney Yesterday. A Minister who Says it is Not Necessary to go to Chicago to Flutl tho Repicsouta tiro of Dram Shops Ilia Honor's Answer. Some of tho temperaneo people in this city havo begun a crusade against Mayor Whitnoy, and yestorday they paid thoir respects to his Honor in a manner that recalls many of tho opiaodos of Mayor Low's administration. Tho Key. I.

J. Lansing, of tho Stimmorfleld M. E. Church, In a sormon on "Tho Impending Tempest, its Influences lionlgn and referred to Mayor Whitney as follows, aftor alluding to dramshop politics In Chicago; Tho Mayor of this olty has refused to holp his brother trustees to prevont tho licensing of a new dramshop within sixty foot of tho old Sands street Church, whilo tho neighborhood is already swarming with them. I regret it is not necossary to go to Chicago to find a representative of dramshop poll tics he can bo found in Brr.oklyn.

Yesterday morning Mayor Whitnoy, as Is his custom, went to tho Sands street M. E. Church to worship. Ho la a membor of tho church and a trustoo. Mr.

C. C. Leigh, also a mombor of the church, and tho Prohibition candldato for Mayor against Soth Low, addrosaod tho congregation iu relation to a re monsiranco to tho Excise Board against the granting of a licenso for tho salo of liquor at tho corner of Sands and Fulton streots. IIo said Thore are now within a few hundred foot over fifty drinking saloons, ono only twonty flve foet from tho door of this church and now another is askod for twonty flvo feet from that. This one to ho eroctod by capitalists who intoud to mako it tho largest and most gorgeous drinking saloon in tho city.

Thoro will be rooms above for tho accommodation of guosts, for it will bo called a hotel. Il will bo no low divo; on tho contrary, everything that art can deviso and money procure will bo lavished lu profusion to attract and load to their ruin tho unsuspecting youth ot our city. It will bring genteel roughs around tho doors and windows and upon tho sidewalks and subjoct ladies and children to groat annoyance in attending church service. Again, tho groat lirooklyn bridge, at the entrnnco of which is proposed to erect another gin mill, has cost tho citizens J15.000.000 and is visited by strangers from cvory part of tho civilized world. Theso strangers will think that Brooklyn is not a city of schools aud churchos but ono of grog shops.

Tho Mayor of our city has soloetcd and appointed this Board of Exciso, and of course is rosponsihlo to tho citizens for tho acts of his clorks or agents and as tho Mayor is a membor and trustee of this church unless we, the mombors, entor a protest it will bo considered that wo aro in accord and not op posod to tho saloon, especially as it is well known tho Mayor has refused to sign the romonstranco and will not oppoo it." A voice It was only an official act of the Mayor and not a privato and porsonnl ono. Mr. Leigh If the devil gets tho Mayor what will become of our trustee and brothor? Vrtille thoso remarks wero being publicly mado In tho presenco of tho Mayor tho membors of tho church and congregation wont up in large numbors and signed tho remonstrance. Tho Mayor did not aign It. An Eagle reporter callod upon his Honor this morning and aBked him if ho hod any statement to mako In answer to his critics.

Ho said: "I think somo of tho mombora of tho Sand itroet Church aro a little too previous. There has boen no licenso granted to sell liquor at tho corner of Sands and Fulton Htreets, noithor haB there beon an application for a liconso Commissioner Cunningham info mod mo this morning that ho know nothing whatovor about tho matter and that tho Board had received no notlco of tho starting of a saloon or of any effort boing mado to obtain a liconso. Whon an application is mado it will bo timo onongh to present remonstrances. I was asked to slgu this remonstrance aud refused, as I do in all such cases. I am not hero to sign potiiions or remonatrancea of any kind whatevor.

Therefore, to meet tho increased expense it will bo necessary for the Hoard to provide tho means, and tho Commissioner suggested that the unexpended balance of streot lighting of 18S5 bo transferred to tho account of electric lights.

DKAT1I OF A FRENCH AUTHOR. PAWS, Juno 14. Dloudonne Alexandro Paul Boltosti, the French author, Is dead. He vras 56 roars oi Age. The Board of Estimate Hearing: Officials.

Commissioner Carroll on the Necessity of the Increase of tho Polico Force Mot theiT Smith's Claim for (forbade Re moral to be Allowed Tho Educational Eeqnisitlon Commissioner Eunis on the Wants of the Fire Department Cost of tho Board of Charities and Corrections. Other Matters of Interest. The Board of Estimate to day gave a hear ng to officials in reference to estimates for 1857. Commissioner Carroll appeared to speak upon Items in the requisition for the Police Department, moro particularly touching the proposed Increase of tho patrol foroe. He has askod for 200 additional patrolmen at $150,000.

lie said tho force waa now altogether too small. Thore was only ono policeman now to tako caro of the rights of overy 1,400 and odd law abiding people. At night there woro only 2 10 mon watching tho public Interests, and It ought to bo clear to everybody that tho force should bo larger, because tho city Is constantly increasing In Bize and population, aud tho olomont against which protection Is needed la growing larger. Soma of the men aro dotallod to work thoy ought not to bo doing; two wero doing clerical work in tho City Clerk's offlco. Ho rogardod that as an outrage Ho had takon off two mon from tho ferries, leaving only ono in charge.

Ho said that patrolmon should bo sent to tho public schools every day when thoy were dismissing, but they caunot bo spared now. There ought to be 800 nion on tho force, but ho only asked for 600. Though ho had not 600 men now, ho was ontltlod to them, under tho charter, and tho Board was bound to provide for them. Sovon of tho eight station houses tho city was using havo boon condemned uuQt for occupation, and the city is spending money on thorn continually, to keep thotn in ordor. Now housoa aro absoluloly neodod whoro askod for.

Patrol wagons are much needed, for the disturbing olomont that showed itaolf In Chicago is hero, too, and increasing, aud tho wagons can bo mado of vast service at times. Mayor Whitney said that ho agreed entlroly with Commissioner Carroll's statement Tho Board took no action. Alderman John McCarty spoko In behalf of Mat thow Smith, who claims JO, 111 as a balance duo for tho removal of garbage In 1881. He said that tho Health Committoo of the Common Council had Investigated tho matter recontly and had come to tho conclusion that Smith was entitled to the money because ho went In and did the work for tho timo stated, and no notice to him to stop work was givon until his contract was revoked. Tho Board was ready to pay him tho amount duo but on consultation it was doomed advisable to havo It insertod In tho Budgot.

Tho Mayor said that he thought tho claim was a lust ono. Mr. Smith did the work, though thoro was a disputo botwoeu him and tho thou Commissioner about the kind of dunnigan or caBk to bo used. AldermanMcCartysald tho dispute reflected on tho Commissioner or his doputy, Whiting, and perhaps it was Just as well now to lot it rest. But, as tho Mayor had spoken ot tho casks used to collect tho garbngo, ho would nay that thoy had eout to the farmers who collected the garbage for thoir pigs and had ttjom purchase tho vory casks uaod by Smith, and the farmers used them in oollcctlng garbage for tho wholo year thereafter.

Tho Board decidod to raiGo tho amount of the alaim in tho budget. Tho Board took up the estimate of tho Board of Education and Mr. D. W. Tallmadgo, tho secretary, appeared.

lie said that tho increaBO on account of teachors' salaries was tho nntural incroaso from the growth of tho schools. Tho only inoroaso In teachors' pay so far was lu that of tho principals, and amounted to but about but the matter of raising teachers' salaries ia undor consideration. Thoro was a balance of about $70,000 which it would probably apply to tho incroaso iu teachors' salaries, if made. It seomod that there was a sentiment in favor of increasing thoso of the primary grade from $300 to $350 or $400. The cumpulsory education item of $14,324 was ail spent for alarlos of a suporinlendonl and oight assistants, office rent and nil other expenses of that bureau.

Tho Board decided to for newschool buildings, with tho understanding that tho monoy is used for primary schools. At tho lnstanco of Aldormau Olona tho $20,000 inserted for addition to Public School No. 9 was allowed to Btaud. Mr. Tallmadge said that a supplementary estimate calling for $40,000 would bo submitted for tho schools in the Twenty sixth Ward (Kow Lots).

Fire Commissioner Eunis spoke in reforonco to tho appropriation for his department, urging the raising of monoy, first, for threo now ongino housoa. The cost of property and buildings would bo $41, 000. One in tho Third Ward was most essontial; the other two would bo placod lu tho Eighth and Fiftoonth wards. Tho Controller callod attontion to tho Itom of $50, 000 for a now building for Headquarters. Commissioner Eunis Tho building Is old and not sultod to tho purposes, but I suppose we can make out another year.

The Mayor Wo would like to mako tho appropriation, but we can't do it. Tho Controller Wait another year and wo will then give the department a now building. President Itay of the Dopartmont of Charities and Corrections, the estimate of which agrogatoa $321,000, said it was moro than tho last appropriation. This was duo to the natural Incroaso of business. Tho main items are: For supplies, $183,000 is askod for against $175,000 granted last yoar; for salaries tho allowanco Is $105,000, against $93,000 for last year, with an existing deficiency to bo mot of for wator, offlco rent, mochanics' sorvices and additional plans and specifications for improvement at St.

Johnland, tho sum foots up $33,000. Tho only itom asked for not usual iu tho annual estimate is ouo of $5,000 for tho St John land plans. Buildings Commissioner Vlatt said ho had thirteen inspoctors now and wanted four moro at $1,200 a year each. This was tbo only Increase askod for. Tho prosont number could not cover tho ground, especially aftor the acquisition of New Lots.

The onliro opproprlation is 30.800, or $0,300 more than that allowed a year ago. If the building trado should fall off ho could reduce the numbor of of inspectors. The Board approved the estimate. When tho Truant Homo requisition was taken up tho Keeper, Mr. Corrigan, oxplained that tho only change which ho had to propose In ills ostimalo was that instead ot expending for repairs to the present building $15,000 or bo npproprialod for a now one, with $10,000 already iu hand.

Tho Controller saltl he did not beliovo it worth whilo to spend much more monoy on that old Tru ant Home buuumg. Tho Mayor agreed with him. The Board will await tho Governor's action on bill now boforo him transferring tho control of rno institution to tuo noara ot Kducation. Aftor further discussion an adjournment to Wednesday at 10 A.

Bavaria's Insane King Commits Suicide. He Escapes from His Attendants at Borf? Cast la and Throws Himself Iuto Lrtlco Starenberg His Physician Also Drownod Vt'hilo Attempting to Rescue tJio Royal Patient A Sketch of tho Unfortunate Ruler. Loxnos', June M. A dispatch Just received lioro from Munich contains Dig startling lutolllgoaco tlint King Louis tho recently deposed litvarian monarch, who loft the pnlaco yesterday for Iierg Castle, on Lake Staronbcrg, committed suicide at that place this morning by drowning. Ciroat precautions had boon taken to provent tho king from taking his own llfo.

IIo had been promenading In tho park surrounding Iierg Castle. Dr. Guddon, tho attending physician, was also in tho park keeping a eloso T7Btch over his patient. The King, awaiting a favorable momont, made a daah for Lako Staronhorg, on which tho castlo grounds aro situatod, and throw himself into tho water. IIo was almost instantly missed by tho doctor, who Immediately gave the alarm and dashed off after his royal charge.

Tho latter, however, reachod tho lako before anyono could intercept him and when tho doctor had reachod tho odgo tho King was struggling in tho wator. Tho doctor sprang Into the lako, In hopes of rescuing tho drowning BOToreigu, and was also drowned. Musicn, Juno 14. Tho modlcol commission which oxaminod tho lato King Louis report that ho had ordered the monibors of tho ministerial deputation, headed by Couut Dolsteln, who callod upon him to procure his con Bout to a regoncy, to bo lloggod until they blod and then to have thoir eyes extracted. Ucforo his death tho beliof was spreading among tho common people of Hararia that tho King's deposition was illo gal.

Tho people did not believe ho was insano. Precautions had boon taken to prevent the populace Jrom rising to restore tho King. Tho watch worn by King Louis, and which was on his person whou his corpso was recovered from tho lako, had stopped at o'clock lastoTOning. Br. lluollor and Hubert, tho King's steward, had tho bodies of tho King and Dr.

Gudden conveyod to tho Berg Casllo and placed on hods. Although there was neither any perceptiblo respiration nor pulse movement iu either body, Dr. Kueller and his assistants of tho ambulanco corps attempted to restore animation in both, and only ceased their efforts at resuscitation at midnight, when llfo was pronounced extinct iu both cases. King Louis' suicido has cast a deep gloom over Munich. Now it Is seen plainly that tho people woro deeply attached to tho King, and evidences aro ovorywheo manifest of tho popular sorrow by his tragic death.

The police havo issued tho following bulletin: Tho king quietly submitted to tho advio 3 of tho medical commission and left for lferg CiutU). Yesterday evening his Majesty went out for a walk in the park in company with Dr. Ulldden. Their prolonged absence caused anxiety nt the castle. Tho pari: and tho shores of Lako wero ecarehod.

Tho bodies of tho king and Dr. Guddon were found in the wator. Both showed slight signs of animation. Kllorts to restore life, however, woro unavaling. At 10 o'clock this morning the genorals of tho Bavarian army mot and took tho oath of allegiauco to King Louis' brothor Otto, who at once assumed the title of king under the name of Otto I.

lie is three years younger than Louis was, having boon born April 27, ISMS. Otto, howovor, will be simply nominally King, as ho is moutally incapablo of governing, and I'rinco Luitpold. his uncle, will remain Bo gout. Tho gonerals of the army havo taken tho oath of allogianco to I'rinco Luitpold as Kegent. Tho Bavarian troops took oaths blmilar to thoso sworn by tho gonorala.

A HKcU'U of Uio Bead iTIoimrcli. King Louis II. was born nt Nynipheiibotirg August 2j, 1SI5, and was thoreforo in his 1st yoar at tho timo of his death. L'pcn tho death of hi3 father, Jiaximilian March 10, 1SG4, ho succeeded to tho throuo of Bavaria. His ecclesiastical instructors woro Ills solo cotnpanions in hia boyhood.

It wa3 not until after his ascension to the throne that ho was allowed to Indulge in any kind of sports or pastimes. IIo has been known to play marbles with his courtiers for hours in one of his palaces Just outsido of Of thoso palaces he had seven, ono of them in tho Ober Ammorgau being built in Imitation of tho I'alnco of Versailles and furnished In Louis XIV. stylo in tho most extravagant manner. Gilt balconies, marble atatucs set. in gold niches, costly Gobelin tapestries, gems of all kinds, Btovcs ornamented with agates, chandeliers studded with diamonds and a bed which cost are among the features of this palace.

Not far away Is a hormitagn, built exactly after tho ono described by Wagner in 44 Die at tho foot of ttio meadow on which it stands is an artificial lako, tho bottom of which is lined with tin, to provent tho water from soaking Into tho porous soil. Homo dis tanoo from theso two hermitages, for tho groat palace was llttlo else than that, ho built a Moorish pavilion, which he called Morocco, and which Is resplendent In gold and Jcwolry. Tho dead king was a most enthusiastic admirer end patron of both music and tho drama. IIo invariably wltnessod tho performances privately, and bo perfect was tho seclusion in the royal box that not oven tho actors could see him from the Btngo. Schiller's "Maid oi Orleans was his favorlto play and special and elaboralo' scenery and costumos had beon prepared for its production.

Iu this costly manner also he had Xarcisso mounted and costumed at an expenso of over 100,000 francs, and had Charlotte Woltors, tho famous Viennese actross, play the principal role, ho being tho only witness. Tho theater was darkened and tho performance began at midnight. At its conclusion ho sont a liandeomo diamond bracelet to tho actress' hotel, after sho had retired for rest, and tho king's chamberlain compelled her to rise and acknowledge its receipt beforo ho would leavo tho hotel. Any ot'uor course, ho announced, would havo greatly displeased tho monarch. When Wagner produced his famous trilogy tho final rehearsal, which was virtually tho first performance, was witnessed by the King alono in a theater artificially darkened, tho only lights being those on tho stage.

Many other operas and plays were produced under similar circumstances, and in return tho artists were recipients of royal favors, rich and lavish, for Louis' generosity was unbounded. All of theso and similar eccentricities wipod out tho King's private estate and so entailed tho Income from the civil list that for soveral years ho had been at tho mercy of money londers, and quite recently they foreclosed on somo of his proporty and tho Government, to save itself from bankruptcy, had to rcfuso to givo him any more advances, as Its credit, liko his, was nearly gono. A couple of j'oars ago King Louis dismissed all his body sorvauts, and sinco thou hia only attendants wero a troop of light cavalry. They accompanied him ovorywhoro ho wont, riding boside him at full speod, whon at midnight, drawn by tho finest blooded horses In Kurope, ho drove about Munich, or from town to town in a sort of steeplechase on Wheels. He stopped for nothing, and his traveling was liko the rushing of a whirlwind, often leaving destruction oven death In its track.

Iu Winter ho drovo about in a gilded sleigh, drawn by four black OrlofT stallions, boauliful, high strung and tireless. Ills eccentricities woro numborless, and of such a charactor that woro ho not a king ho would long ago havo beon called a crank. Louis' only brother, and tho next heir to tho throne, Othon, born iu 1848, has boon Insano for some timo, and Iherofore could not succeed to tho throne. HOPE OF SPEEDY RELIEF.

It was one of tho hoayloot storms known to tho oldost Inhabitants. attache of tho eamo place, who is a special oflloor, and were waiting for a Tompkins avenue car also, whon they saw Skidmore and shook him for the purpose, as thoy claimed, of rousing him.

The sleopy man asked to be lot alone and whon shaken up a socond time ro sontod the well meant efforts of his friends by striking thorn.
