MOUNTAINS ABLAZE.
Tho Dense Haze Prevailing Here To-day
Its Origin Punk Fires.

The sun went down last evening in the
shape Of fiery red ball floating in a sea Of
azure. 1t was an unusual sight, COM
mented on by many. For several days
white.winged flying ants had been as
numerous as they were before the great
rainfall in the summer Of 81, and every
body predicted that to-day would find US
enveloped in great rain storm.
However, the prediction has failed up
to the present writing; but the blue haze
that has filled the atmosphere for twenty
four hours continues to increase, until
the mountains have been completely shut
from the view OF city jewellers and only u
dim outline OF the nearest foothills is to

people pretend to have heard stories OF

where in the Jemez country, aud others
suggest that great forest fires are raging
in the adjacent mountains.
This latter surlnise is probably the true
cause of the haze, but nothing can be
learned as to the location OF the blaze. 1t
is probably in the Vale mountains or in
the Santa Re range toward Badly, for
parties in from Monument rock say no fire
has occurred there, 1t is said the origin
OF these forest fires in summer
may be traced to the fact that

peared for Mr.. Victory and asked that
the matter be set Tor hearing on Thursday
next. John H. Knaebel, Mr.. Twitchelps
stated that his side was pre-.

Editor Smiths Brother-in-Law Mistook

Editor Smiths Brother-in-Law Mistook
Him for Burglar.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, May 10, 1882
James B. Smith, local editor of the Re
publican, was shot and instantly killed
this morning by his brother-in-law, who
mistook him for a burglar In the alb
sence of Mr.. Smiths father-in-law, War
rem f. Sturtevant, who is at the Rangeley
Lakes, on fishing trip, Mr.. Smith, his
wife and infant daughter were spending
a few days in Mr.. Smiths old home.
Early this morning burglars entered Mr..
Sturtevant's house, and young Sturtevant
was aroused from sound sleep by the
servants, who had been awakened by the
noise made by the burglars. He looked
out of the window and saw man in the
yard, and seizing his gun went into the
hall. In the meantime Mr. and Mrs.
Smith were aroused, and had stepped out
of their room into the hall. Young
Sturtevant, not knowing that his
brother-in-law was in the house, and sup
posing himself the only man there at once
fired. Mr.. Smith fell dead by the side Of
his wife.
Mr.. Smith had slept in his own house
until last night, on account of the late
ness of his hours, but he was off duty last
night though his brother-in-law did not
know it,
Mr.. Smith was the only son of Herman
Smith, well known local civil engineer,
and graduated at Harvard in 1883, since
when he had been employed on the Re
publican. He was member of Trinity
Methodist Church and was young man
of good ability and high character. His
brother-in-law is young man of twenty
two and is simply overwhelmed by the
terrible tragedy

FATHER CAREwEs VISITOR.
He Is Locked Up as an Impostor and
Confidence Man.

He Is Locked Up as an Impostor and
Confidence Man.
A man giving his name as Francis SuIli-
van, and his occupation as that of civil
engineer from Arizona, was arrested yes
terday afternoon by Sergeant McGinnis
and Detective McNally, of the Third
precinct, in the rectory of st. Joseph's
Church.
Several days ago Father Carewe re-
ceived letter from priest in a neighbor-
ing town warning him to look out for
man named Sullivan, whom the writer
considered an imposter On Saturday
afternoon the man called at the rectory
and asked to see Father Carewe. He told
a rather rambling story, the gist of it
being that he was anxious to go to the
West and that he was out of funds.
Father Carewe told him to call
at two O'Clock p. m. yesterday.
In the meantime Father Carewe
went to the police and told them
his suspicious in regard to the man.
Shortly before two O'Clock the sergeant
and detective went to the rectory when
the strange visitor made his appearance
He asked for money and the priest handed
out the cash. In less than no time the
man was in the clutches of the law and
was locked up. He was held by Judge
Wanser this morning in order to see what
evidence can be brought against him. The
police seem to know the man, but they
are quite reticent upon the subject

the railroad company from laying it's
tracks across Mr.. Furman's property.
w. p. Voorhees,. of New Brunswick, ap-
peared for Mr.. Fur1nan. and the railroad
company was represented by Wallis &
Edwards, of this city.
Mr.. Voorhees, read an affidavit made by
Joseph j. Cathcart, a bookkeeper for
Furman, in which the occurrence in
which Kessinger lost his life was graphi-
cally set forth. Mr.. Cathcart also said that
when he ordered the foreman of the rail-
road laborers to desist from their opera
tions. he told him that Mr. Furman had
been notified by letter that day of the
condemnation of his land.
The letter referred to was read, and
proved to be a simple notification to Mr..
Furman that since he had refused to sell
the company right of way through his
property steps would be Immediately
taken to have the land condemned.
1t was also alleged that Mr.. Furman
sold the company a strip of land, and
when the deed was made out another
strip was inserted
In opposing the motion Mr. Wallis said
that the railroad company had been una
Bile to get together its testimony. He
asked for an adjournment. The Chancel-
lor said that the matter was
very important one. The railroad
company was charged with a grave
infraction of the law, and their side,
of course should be heard. He therefore,
adjourned the hearing to next Monday,
the order restraining the company from
doing any further work on Mr.. Furman's
land to continue in the meantime.

ONLY A SUNDAY COMEDY.

Charges of Assault Which Grew Out of
Sky1arking by Young Men.
Joseph A. Ratzer and James Cordic, of
No. 184 Eleventh street, were arraigned
before Justice Stilsing this morning on q
charge of assault.
Policeman Harrington testified that
Ratzer came to the Grove street police
station with his head covered with blood,
and said that he had been assaulted by
Cordic. When the policeman went to the
house to arrest Cordic he was told that
Cordic's sister was very low from the eff
fects of an assault committed by Ratzer,
and that priest was with her. Harring-
ton took both young men to the station
house.
This morning the testimony showed
that Ratzer and Cordic were skylarking
when Ratzer received his injuries At
the sight of the blood cordic's sister went
into Mysteries and the family thought she
was going to die.
The young men were held for further
examination.

FLIPPANT WITNESSES.


They Make Unkind Remarks About
Saloonkeeper Kiernan.
Joseph Kiernan's saloon at No. 1893
Grand street was broken into February
%, and about $40 was taken. He caused
the arrestof Joseph Leonard and William
Cunningham and charged them with the
offense. The trial of these men took place
in the Court of Sessions this morning
Owing to the illness of Mr. Winfield,
Assistant Prosecutor Noonan conducted
the case for the State, and CounselIors
DAILY and Rowe appeared for the accused.
Simon Mahoney, who was en-
ployed as a bartender, found the
door of the saloon broken in that night,
and when he tried to get in some persons
the hall, and later saw ''Belch'' Harney
and Cunningham in the saloon. Some
witnesses were called to corroborate this
evidence.
Herman, when cross-examined after
being recalled, was asked by Lawyer
Have you safe in your salOon?"
mo, sir; have a cigar box.n
Leonard, when called in his defence,
was asked by Counsellor Rowe:-"Did
Kiernan and his barkeeper ever get
drunk?'
Eyes, sir; it was an even up race to see
who could get the drunkest.n
Did Herman ever get so drunk that he
could put his money in place and not be
able to find it?"
'Yes, sir; he would get so drunk that
he could hide himself and not be able to
find himself"
After an attempt to show that Herman,
while drunk had mislaid the money and
could not find it, or that he spent it at a
ball he attended later in the night, coun-
sci summed up and the case was given to
the iury.
