JERSEY CRY. N j., Jan. 22.-Eleven
boxes of paper were seized here on Satur-
day night at the instance of Jay Gould and
have been placed in the keeping of mas
ter in ehancery pending litigation. An
official of the Mutual Union Co. swore that
the property did not belong to his compa-
ny. The cashier of the firm of J. G.
Moore 81 Co testified that the boxes and
contents belonged to that firm. Moore &
Co. are the contractors who built the Mu-
full line.
The boxes upon being opened were found
to contain vast quantity of books and
papers, including vouchers, pay rolls, con
tracts and other papers relating to the ac-
counts of Moore & Co, which had accum
ulated during the construction of the lines.
Attorney General |. Russell, in
making his argument in favor of vacating
the charter of the Mutual Union Telegraph
company, claimed that there had been
frauds in awards of construction contracts,
and it is thought these papers May throw
some light upon the matter.

An East Hartford Calamity,


 Two Women Burned to Death-The Fire
 Mystery.
 Fire was discovered on Wednesday night at 12:45 in the house occupied by Hannah and Elizabeth Judson, two elderly maiden ladies, in the Willow Brook district of East Hartford. Neighbors responded to the alarm, but before they could effect an en- trance to the house the flames had gained rapid headway and but little was saved. Search was made for the Misses Judson, but they could not be found in the bedrooms or down stairs. Later the bodies of the two ladies were found in their bed, which had fallen into the cellar, in the ruins of the building.
 The Judson ladies were Elizabeth, aged about 50, and Hannah, aged 43. They were rather eccentric, never having company and seldom going out. They have lived for many years in the house, which was an old fash toned structure of wood, two stories high, with gambrel roof Elizabeth was sick on Wednesday. A fire was kept in the kitchen stove and one in the front sitting room. The two women slept in one bed in 8 room at the northeast end of the building, on the first floor. From the position of the bodies as found after the fire they must have both died in the bed, which had fallen through into the cellar below. The entire building was des- troyed nothing remaining except a portion of the heavy, old-fashioned brick chimney. The origin of the fire is unknown.
 The house destroyed is one well known to all who have ever travelled over the road from Hartford to Glastonbury. as the "Isaac Judson place" There is g farm of some forty or more acres which has been cultiva- ted under the management of the two women burned Wednesday night. They were to have a life interest in the place. Their father died some years since and their mother, who lived with them, died few months ago.
 Within few weeks their brother Henry visited them, and at that time left money (some $2OO) for expenses on the farm. Since then the women have raised some $50 from rents, etc. Some of the residents of East Hartford think that there was foul play and the matter will be looked into.
