FINDING MANY sMUGGLED GOWNS

For several days Colonel Story and expert eN
aminers OF the customs service have been going
through the trunks that were recently seized from
half dozen dressmakers measuring the dresses and
preparing official statements for use when the cases
come up In the court Yesterday, while measuring
the dresses taken from Miss Molly Jones, Of Pitts
burg the examiners found thirty eight yards OF valu
able point lace carefully sewed in the lining of one
of the gowns. Miss Jones is the person who as
serted when her trunks we're SEIZED that she had
not the first intention of trying TO evade the payment
OF duty I'm any way, and really didn't know That the
good ought to have been declared.
In all the cases IL has been found that the gowns
differ greatly in their measurements, despite the fact
that nearly all the women claimed the goods in their
pecve trunks their personal property, intended
for their own use.

ALLEN rH0RNDLKH RICE,S WILL.

report published in The Tribune yesterday that
the Rhode Island Superior Court would be called
upon at its coming term to interpret certain pro
visions in the will of Allen Thondke Rice attracted
considerable attention in literary and business circles
Yesterday A reporter called at the Office Of "The
North American Review and had a conversation with
an officer of that periodical who had formerly been
associated with Mr. Rice in the management, and who
said: This is an amcable suit brought by Charles
L. Getting, Of BrOOkline, Mass Of the executors
of will made by Mr. Rice's grandmother Mrs. Mary
NJ. Bourne, Of that town. who died at Trouville
France, September 30, 1879, leaving a large estate
consisting of real and personal property in MasSachu
sets and Rhode Island. by the terms of this will
Mr. Rice received One-siXth of the residue Of the
testatOrs property outright Another one-siXth was
willed TO Mr. Getting in trust for Mr. Rice. Mr.
Rice who died leaving no heir, made will dispOsing
Of all his property. including the trust fund which
amounted to about S2500O0. According 10 the terms
Of Mrs. BOurne's will Mr. Rice could dispose of this
fund by will in he died without issue. As
understand IT, the question before the court is simply
TO determine whether the laws Of Massachusetts or
Rhode Island or those Of this state, where Mr. Rice
lived. shall prevail in the disposition of that portion
0f his estate which had been wled to him in trust
by Mrs Bourne ] do not think that there is any
question as to the validity of Mr. Rice's wills

no SCARCITY OF CROTOE WATER.

1t was fondIy believed that with the new Aqueduct
In successuI operation the odme cry of alarm about
the sudden 1. lapse OF the citys water supply would
be forever silenced. Nothing, however seems to be
beyond the reach Of the news fakr." Yesterday
report spread that there was not enough water
in storage TO last a fortnight Chief Engineer Bird
SAIL Of the Public Works Department. pronounced the
statement without the least foundation If not
drop of rain falls he said, there is enough water
on hand to last twenty three days, and by reduring
the pressure the time could be extended 80 per cent
But the rainy season is fast approaching and pre-
dctions Of water scarcity are positively ridiculous
Mr. Biflsal referred 10 the fact that the Depart
ment had not even considered the question Of stopping
the sprinklingcaris and the lavish use of water BY
householders This, he said would certainly be the
first thing looked 10 if there the slightest ap-
prehensiOn felt the subject. The CrOton Aqueduct
report yesterday showed that the depth Of water in
the Central Park reservoirs was 81 feet inches.
The normal deI.h since the completion OF the
Aqueduct Is 36 feet Before that the water IN Cen
trail Park often only 10 feet deep yet there WAS
fear Of a famine.
At the Aqueduct Commissioners Office the report
was also laughed AT.
