A THRBE-MILLION PLUM.
Ejectment Suits Begun Concerning
Property Near Grace Church.
From the NeW York Herald.


"reminiscences Of the early history of
New York frequently come to the surface
in our courts Of law, especially when real
estate is the object of dispute. When the
Dutch settled on the island Of Manhattan
one of the families was named Brevoort,
and they came over in 1864, being granted
a farm by Gov Stuyvesant. This farm
consisted of the land now lying round about
Grace church.
AS years rolled by the farm fell to the
possession of three sisters (Brevoorts), and
one of them married Gideon Tucker. His
share of the property is now a part of the
two blocks lying between Fourth aud Fifth
avenues and on Tenth and Eleventh streets.
Among the buildings standing thereon is
the Methodist Book Concern, the St.
Stephens Hotel, the Albert apartment
house and Hazleton's piano factory. The
streets III that part of the city were not
opened until 1910.
THE TUCKER FAMILY LITIGATION.
In 1S45 Gideon Tucker died, and there
was a bitter legal contest among the re-
latives, and il continued for over twenty
five years In 1868, whilo two Of the
grandchildren-ex-Su Gideon j.
Tucker and his brother, DR.. J. c. Tucker
were absent in Europe and South America,
the property was partitioned off and sold
in lots on partition suit in the Supreme
Court. BY some unexplained neglect
Gideon and John Tucker were not made
parties to this suit, consequently their share
was not disposed Of The price obtained
for the property was 81, 250, COO.
During all these twenty years the litiga-
ton, which was revived by the sale, has
been carried on with more or less hitterne's
and with varying success until the last
week in February of this year. A decision
was then rendered by the Court of Appeals
OF the State of New York declaring that
the interest and ownership of those two
grandchildren of Gideon Tucker had never
been sold, consequently the. right and title
of the present holders was defective in that
respect.
IN THE NICK OF TIME.
This decision, though welcome TO the
claimants. aava them very little time la

IRISH NATIONAL LEAGUE.
The Rt. Rev. Bishop healy Speaks
on the Irish Question.

The regular meeting of the Portland
Branch of the Irish National League was
held in the l. A. r. A. hall last evening. Mr..
I. F. Donahue, president Of the branch pre-
sided. The meeting was large and enthnsl-
astic The presence of Rt Rev. Bishop
Healy and Rev. T. r. Linehan lent great in
terest to the meeting
Bishop Healy delivered an exceedingly in
teresting, instructive and eloquent address,
to which no abstract could do justice He
discussed with philosophical breadth and
marked felicity of language the various
phrases of Ireland's struggle for national
autonomy. He announced himself as in
hearty sympathy with all the legitimate eff
forts of the down-trodden and oppressed
people of Ireland to clothe their birthland
with the privileges of a nation, and evinced
a thorough knowledge of Irish history. He
discussed the religious aspect of the strug-
gle, and paid glowing tribute to the states
nanship of Parnell. The audience listened
with rapt attention to the address of the Ri.
Rev. Bishop, and at the close rising vote of
thanks was given him for his able, eloquent
and scholarly address.
The next meeting of the branch will be
held in two weeks when well-knowf stu
dent OF Irish history is expected to deliver
an address.

THE NEW OTTAWA.
Great Improvement on Portland Har-
boris Beautiful Island.


Cushing's Island was scene of beauty
yesterday morning when Mr. Francis Cush-
ing took about dozen gentlemen of the Meg
antic Fish and Game Club down to view the
island, it cottages and the new Ottawa
House. The island has been still further
improved since last season. The spruces
and pines on the front, on the ocean side Of
Island, have been carefully trimmed, giving
space for delightful walks between the hotel
and White Head. The new studio for Mr..
Harry Brown, the artist, which is to be near
the hotel, is nearly completed. The Spicer
cottage, now in course of construction. will
be the finest in the harbor. On these cot
tages, on the hotel, and on the roads of the
island, workmen are busy. On the hotel
Mr.. John Bird is pushing the work with
great energy so that the building is fast APP
preaching completion. OF this new hotel
there is no danger Of saying too much. In
position and plan of construction it is sup
erh, whether considered with reference TO
the comfort of its guests or thevery fine views
that are continually before one from the
verandah, the rooms or the tower. The din
ing room overlooks the harbor, and is to be
fitted with windows so large that that side of
the room has almost the effect of wall en-
tirely of glass. The eye of the guest at din
ner may sweep nearly the whole harbor.
The Offices, parlors and ball room win be
roomy and attractive, and the whole will be
ready for this summer. Mr.. Gibson, the
well known proprietor of the Preble House
will have charge of this elegant hotel. The
work done on the island this Spring will
have marked effect in greatly improved
appearance this Summer. 1t is matter OF
congratulation for the people of Portland
that the gem island of Casco Bay is in hands
that are developing its advantages so thcr-
