HE DIEDFLACK'S DEBTOR
Justice Mcneil Owed the Elk.
Sheriff Money.
NEW LIGHT ON THE DIVORCE CASE

This May Explain why Mcneil Used
Such Extraordinary Means TO Procure
a Separation vinculo for His Client
without the wife's knowledge
Nav YORK. Sept. 10 The Herald says.
When james A. Flack was sheriff OF New
York he put away his wife with secret
divorce. The late Ambrose H. Mcneil
then justice of civil court, was his coun
sci. Judge Bookstaver, Of the court Of com
mon pleas, granted the divorce. Many
people wondered why Justice Mcneil had
allowed himself to be drawn into such
transaction.
Mcneil Owed FIack.
The Herald tells some facts that throw
y new light on the relationship between
ex-Sherif Flaok and Justice Mcneil, his
personal counsel
The time Is not far distant when all the
truth about that relationship shall be
known In the meantime II is certain that
when Ambrose II. Mcneil died he was
deeply IN debt to James A. Flack II is a
fact that Mr. Flack is now trying aud has
been trying for months TO find Justice
honell's widow In order that the summons
and complaint may be served on her In his
suit against Monell's estate.
Manaoled TO F1ack.
At Whist stage In his political career did
Mcneil find it necessary to call on Flack
for assistancei Perhaps when these ques-
lions are answered the reason will be plain
why Civil Justice Mcneil was active in
the procurement Of the secret divorce, the
exposure OF which drove James A. Flack
from the sheriff's Office.
Ii has been said that the late Ambrose
H. Mcneil was as one manacleHrto ex-
Sheriff Flack through money indebted
ness.
He insured Monell's Life.
Certain 1t is, however, that Mcneil was
in debt 20 Flack for the latter took good
pains, as he supposed, to secure himself by
insuring the life OF Mcneil in the sum Of
$4,000 in the Mutual Reserve Fund Life
association.

ously attacked the system. So strong were
his arguments that the Librarian answered
his attack in detail. and stated particularly
that no one had the privilege of the library
except those who had or were learning
trades.
Mr.. Carnegie answered this communica-
tion, adding to the signature Working

trade" The result was that Mr.. Carnegie
was invited to an interview with the libra
rian. This resulted in his being accorded
the same rights as others and the opening
up of the library to all.

1t was away back in 1858 when Mr. Carne-

a coincidence that he was able to present
to the city much completer gift than the
one from which he was barred.
In 1858 he made application for member

on the ground that only working boys"

SEWER TROUBLES.
The Big Rain Friday Night Washed
Away Twenty-Four Feet

1t seems that there is no end to the
troubles and mishaps of the sewer
builders. The contractors are now
engaged in extending the lower end
of the big sewer into the river, to the
edge of the low water mark. The
river is now very low, affording the
opportunity and all advantages for
the work. Newt Belote is engaged
with his steam drill opening the way
to the bed of the river, drilling
through solid rock. He is doing the
work of ten men with this drill and
has nearly completed the opening,
throwing up great heaps of broken
stone from the sewer track. The brick
masOns are following him up closely
with their work and are putting in
strong hard brick. They had put in
twenty four feet of the extension
through the river bank, running
down a large ravine that usually
drains the water from the hill side
for some distance above. The work
was still green, the mortar in the
brick had not dried nor had the
sewee been covered over the top
with dirt as contemplated for the
next day. The heavy rain Friday
night brought a flood of water, fill
ing the sewer and a powerful cun ent
sweeping over the top. The brick
in the lower end was quickly loos-
ened and giving away and the whole
twenty-four feet followed and was
swept into the river. The workmen
are rebuilding it, but have taken the
precaution to cut large ditch to turn
the water into another channel in
the event of rain.
