tendent ID. y. Hart, on the 18th of June last and
thought himself safe from Interference in carrying
on his business, till one day last week city
sha appeared aud ordered him to remove his stand.
The Italian in his broken English endeavored to
private property. aud that lie was regularly
licensed dealer. and under these circumstances.
would decline to remove his fruit stand. On Satur-
day the same city marshal appeared and served
order from the Bureau of Encumbrances ordering
the removal of the stand the marshal stating that II
it had not disappeared by Monday he would remove
it himself The Italian was puzzled to understand
these curious proceeulnss ana applied TO MS land
lord. Mr.. Gun. who furnished him with letter to
Superintendent Hart expla ming the facts in the
and asking his interference. Armed with this
letter Marie proceeded To the City Hall
Tuesday morning to seek interview with
the superintendent leaving his wife to take charge
of the truit stand. While he was absent tina city
marshal whose name could not be ascertained. ar
rived at the corner of Forty third street,
panied by some men and horse and cart. and pro-
ceeded to the Italian Is fruit stand although
it stood ground which was private property. Mr..
Cuf the landlord. expostuiated with the marshal,
but in vain. He informed the official that Marie had
gone to the City Hall to seek some remedy, and
quested that the stand should not be dis
turbed until reply was received; but. with
the Indifference to the rights of citizens
which is distinguishing prerogative of city oiH-
cials the marshal ordered the seizure and
removal of the stand. His orders promptly
obeyed by the men who accompanied him, and poor
Marie's fruit scattered about the street. while
the stand. which was his store carted away by
tho TRUMP officials who LETT the luckless Mrs
Marie to pick up her merchandise well she
could This outrage induced Mr.. Cuff to inter-
est himself directly III the affair. and he at
once proceeded to the Bureau OF Encuin-
brances. where he found Marie awaiting the
arrival OF superintendent Hart That official soon
after put In appearance and granted Mr.. Cuff "a
hearing When the superintendent learned the
facts he promised that the stand and fixtures should

presence in the room OF his sistcr-in-law. The man
admitted that he had been criminally intimate with
Mrs. Schoell, but insisted that the defendant had
represented herself to him a single woman. Upon
this state of facts Messrs. Howe & Hummel. on
behalf of Mr.. Schoel asked tor divorce. The case
had been sent to Mr. Edward d. Gale to hear the
testimony, and his report being in accordance with
the facts related Judge Donohue, after hearing
Nathan 8. Levy for the defendant. granted Mr..
Schoel absolute divorce. permitting him again to
