FALSE RuMoRs.
J n dge Ball Says He is Not Seeking a JUS
tfee of the Peaeesbip.

Judge Ball was seen this morning by
an EVENING JOURNAL reporter, with
reference to the report in the Morning
News that he was an applicant for the
position Of justice of the peace, soon to
be made vacant by the resignation of
Squire Bertolette
He said II wish you to give that re-
port the most emphatic contradiction.
It is supremely absurd and perfectly
ridiculous. and could only exist in the
imagination of reporter. / believe no.
body else besides him ever for a moment
entertained that idea"
Senator John r. Donahoe is at Allan
tie City, so that there is no opportunity
for either direct confirmation or con.
tradiction Of the report that he intended
to introduce bin for the abolition Of
the Municipal Court. Several persons
intimately connected with the senator
declare that they have never heard of it
before, and believe it is the offspring of
a fertile Imagination.

INSTRUMENTS OF TORTURE.
Sale of the Nuremberg Collection--A
Hife$ Horrible Exhibition.

Sale of the Nuremberg Collection--A
N'fgf Horrible Exhibition.
1t is stated that the renowned coll
lection of medieval instruments of
torture at Nuremberg has been sold
to a London company. Prima facie
we should doubt that the municipal
ity. OF astown SO famoussfor its antique
relic would be willing-or, indeed,
would be permitted-to dispose Of a
collection unique, so far as we know.
Nor do the projects of the London
company, as described, incline us to
faith. But the report is circumstan-
'tial. Our enterprising fellow citizens
propose to- exhibit their treasures in
the chief towns of Europe, and
then to put them up for auction.
Furthermore, it is asserted that the
authorities of Berlin already look for
ward to the sale and mediate buying
the lot in bulk. Doubtless an exhi-
bition of appliances for torture, au-
thenticated by at least the belief Of
generations, would draw prodigious-
IL. 1t is strange how few instruments
Of the sort survive possessing serious
claims to confidence. Our own speci-
mems in the tower are just as au-
thentic as the block on which, as
the worthy b~eefeater declares,
Anne Boieyn lost her head.
It Is easy to understand that the Gov
ernor or offcials in charge of an old
State Prison would destroy such ter
ribly irritating objects if they had
time, when threatened by events that
might lead to an exposure. Thus we
are not surprised to learn that no ma
chinery for torture was discovered in
any OF the ihquisition buildings that
have been seized. But there are SO
many cases where it seems improbable
that they would have removed or
broken them up, that one is led to
suspect the executioner may have
kept his smaller Instruments. at least,
in his own quarters. London Stan

SHE WANTS AIIMoNY.

A Newark Woman's Suit for Divore
Against Her Husband.
Counselor Kalisch, of Newark, applied
to Vice Chancellor Van Fleet this morn
ing for an order directing Albert +.
Mierer to pay a counsel fee and aiimony
to his wife Barbara Mierer, pending her
suit against him for divorce.
The parties were married in 1888, at
which time the wife claims she was pos
sessed of $1,000 and a quantity of valuable
furniture which her husband persuaded
her to deliver over to him.
He also compelled her to sign a declara-
ton r~ellnquishing her right OF
dover. In addition to That he
accused her of unfaithfulness, heaped
all sorts of abuse upon her and beat her
so that she had to have him arrested. She
was, however, persuaded to refruin from
prosecuting him by his promise to do
better. H lsE1 Hal. Win
Ex-senator Griggs, for the husband,
denied all the allegations. The Vice
Chancellor held the matter of alimony in
allegiance, but granted 800 counsel fees.
