raI in, plf
Mr. Sargent was very loath to talk about ms
dead partner until after he had seen General
Hamilton His object in coming here IS TO
deliver to General Hamilton the effects OF his
son and proof that Robert Ray hamilton IS
really dead. He felt that his first statement
should be made 10 the father Of his dead
friend. Finally however, he told the story
Of the finding Of the body and It's positive
identification.
RABBI ADLER DEAD.
The Rev. Samuel Adler. emeritus rabbi Of
,he Temple Emmanuel died yesterday at his
home here His father was rabbi of Worms.
In early youth he received q thorough tram
ING in Hebrew and Talmudlca literature. In
1857 he accepted a call from the Temple
Emmanuel in this city to become It's minister.
In 1874, after seventeen years OF service, ne
resigned from the active duties OF his position
and became emeritus rabbi Ills lie
stretched over nearly eiGhty-two years. and IL
in many WAYS typical Of the development of
the modern Jewish mind. His early educa-
ton was strictly Ialmudical, and he renamed
to the last an acknowledged authority on
matters of Jewish erudtion. but his heart and
soul were bound up with the cause OF pro-
press. He leaves two Sous and one daughter
DR.. |. Adler, Professor Felix Adler and Mrs.
julius Goldman.
NOT DEAD BUT SPORTING.
After driving about, camping. fishing. and
naying fine time In general for four days,
Luzerne Bristole. the demented superlnten-
dent of the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern tunnel, was this morning returned to his
home with his four sons. He was found
camping out in the country thirty miles from
here last night.
NORTHERN FRUIT CROP.
Unlike the reports of Southern fruit grow
ers is the announcement which reaches here
from forty-elght fruit growing districts OF
Western New York. The report presents a
very discouraging outlook for fruit this sea-
son. The apple crop is again for the third
successive season almost total failure. OF
5000 trees in one Wayne-county orchard only
800 blossomed. Reports from Lockport,
Medina, Albion, Batavia, Attlca and Mount
Morris all tell the same story Of
short crops. In the Tonawanda Va
ley frosts have DESTROYED the en-
tire crop. Niagara county will not have
a fifth of an average crop because of frosts
and apparent exhaustion. The crop OF Bart
lett pears will be insignificant. A fair yield
of Duchese dAngouleme pears and a good
crop of white cherries IN some localities may
be looked for The only fruit OF which q
large yield is assured is the ounce. which has
blossomed fully and late. Raspberries are
looking well and good supply Is expected.
But altogether the prospects are bad, and
fruit farming in Western New York seems TO
be a pretty profitless business
EMMA ABBoFT's COSTLY WARDROBE.
Mrs. Lizzie Abbott Clarke. the sister Of the
late Emma Abbott, is in the city. She has
put up at the Hoffman House. Mrs. Clarke
is here 10 sell the late actress wardrobe,
which is valued ut 500 900. The collection
comprises about $50 distinct costumes. each
with different name and each identified
with Miss Abbott's stage history. Among
them is her famous "Rising-Sun" mantle.
weighing seventy five pounds, a marvel in
blue velvet gold and silver. All the dresses
are by Worth or Felix.
THE HARFELD DIVORCE CASE.
David Harfeld. the Richmond pawnbroker,
Who is serving a three-years' sentence in Sing
Sing for bigamy. is a defendant in a suit for
divorce brought by his wife Julia. The case
is being tried before Judge O'Brien of the Su-
preme Court Although on September 7, 1889
HaTfeld and Sarah Marks went through some
ceremony before a Jewish rabbi which has
been held by the Court of General Sessions
to be legal marriage, harfeld swears
that it was only betrothal,
Miss Marks corroborates his statement and
says that they are only engaged. She said
she travelled with Harfeld TO Washington,
where they stayed at the American Hotel in a
parlor a couple of hours, and then went to
Richmond. She lived in the same house
with him there. but not as his wife Harfeld
told her he was not married. and they were
waiting until he could get a divorce. Judge
D. Brlen has reserved his decision.
