put over his face, and the oficers sprang
on and Knocked out the prop Ludwig,
being in a recumbent posture and the rope at full

down with his feet short distance from the ground.
His neck could not have been broken; but he died
very quickly, and without q single movement after
he was swung on except one or two slight heav1ngs
OF the chest. The moose was got on at thirteen
minutes past two at eighteen minutes past TWO the
drop fell, and In ten minutes thereafter Drs Hall
and Fraey pronounced life extinct and the spirit OF
Ludwig was ut the bar Of God.
The body was taken down at quarter 10 three

Right to the Custody Of Her Children
Before Judge Gilbert.
Pursuant to an adjournment the case of Mrs. Ern-
slime Oaks, late Mrs. Henry Steinway, who is suing
for the custody of her three children whom she al
leges are detained in Brunswick, Germany, at the
instance OF William Steinway, brother of her de-
ceased husband against her Will and to the defTi-
ment of their health came up in the Supreme Court,
Special Term, before Judge Gilbert yesterday.
Judge Van Colt counsel for the respondent, stated
that they had received two kilograms from Germany
in relation to the children. The first was on the
2sth and the second on the Goth Of June. II had
been ascerained that the children were all well with
the exception that they had the wind poX and Mege
weakly
Mr.. jerks, one Of the counsel for Mrs. Oaks did
not see that any steps had been taken to bring The
children to this country except in regard 10 learning
the state of their health. The main question as 10
the original application as to what had been done
with property removed remains to be passed upon,
and whether this lady not the proper person TO
have the custody of her own children because she
married man whom they presumed TO call coach
man. They were ready TO go on with the ease.
As Judge Gilbert was unable to devote more man
q couple of hours to the case today, and the tes'-
mony to be produced would occupy much longer IN
terval an adjournment was had until trday, jay 10.
