ing all the authorities referred TO he found
that the common law had not been modified
by statute providing for the passage Of the
right of inheritancy from an alien to an
aliens heir.
For the reasons which Judge Wallace
stated in his opinion, he held in conclusion
"that any title to the real estate in contro-
versy which may have been acquired by
Mary Branagh has not been transmitted
upon her death to the plaintiff by descent.
A verdict must consequently be directed for
the defendant"
Gen Butler was not in the court room
when the decision was given, but his ASCOT
ate, William II. Secor, was. Joseph H.
Choate, Ehhu Root and ex-Judge Horace
Russell were all present, representing the
defendant.
Edward j. Mclean, who represents other
heirs in Ireland, lawyers representing ten
or twslve heirs of Mr.. Stewart, and three
second cousins of Mrs. Stewart from Bir-
mingham, Conn. Wichita. Kan, and Sedg-
wick, Kan, were also in court.
When A. 7. Stewart died he left William
P. Smith, his butler. $4,000, then Mrs.
Stewart left Smith $4,000 more and the
house No. 113 East Thirty-fifth street II
was to get Smith from this house that the
suit was brought by Sarah Branagh. Smith
was in court to-day. The suit was in real
ity an attack upon the Stewart will, and nc
one anticipated such an abrupt termination.
1t is understood that Gen. Butler will
now attack the will for one of the many
American heirs.
On the delivery of the opinion Mr.. Secol
stated that he wished to put in bill Of ex'
ceptions with a view to making an appeal
He was allowed two days in which to dc
this, and the claimants vacated the court.

priation. Mr.. Frazier presented a resolu-
tion entitled "to save tthe taxpayers $50, :

Special Notice.

The Blaine Land Improvement Company
feels called upon to express regret that the
free transportation facilities to Blaine, pro-
vidcd for the 18th, should have proven in
sufficient to meet the requirements of the
OCCASION and to assure those who desire to
visit the new town and were disappointed in
their plans yesterday, that transportation
will be arranged for and announced in this
paper within few days
1t is to be regretted also that, with the
date of the event and the hour of departure
of boats and cars prominently announced
for many days successively, so many hum
dreds Of people should have waited till the
last hour to secure tickets, and other hun
dreds apply for them after cars, boats and
tickets had been long gone. Although the
magnitude of the demand for transportation
to Blaine was without parallel in the record
of similar enterprises, we would have been
fully prepared to meet it had prospective
visitors given reasonable notice of their in
tentions

Three More Victims on the List.

Before they were removed, however three
other victims were added to the terrible list
The tall chimney stood there like a signal to
warn people from a cursed spot. The IL
boarders had lost their all in the fire Harry
Rowe, Peter McNeal, better known as "Pete
Knee, and David Grant, in the hope of find
ing some of their valuables, commenced to
hunt among the ruins. Then fate. if it
were not satisfied with the terrible work,
tumbled down the chimney. Under it were
crushed the men Rowe and McNeal, while
Grant was slightly injured. The men were
quickly carried ont, and DR.. Cape was sent
for. He mounted his horse, but on the way
the horse threw him, and he was severely
injured. Other medical assistance was
quickly summoned and the men were re-
moved to Mercy Hospital During the after
noon Rowe died there but last night it was
believed that there was n chance for Nc
Meals recovery and Grant will certainly re-
cover
In the afternoon Coroner Mcdowell. who
had been at work since daylight, held an
inquest at Squire Gluck's office in Rankin.
4 verdict of death from suicide was found
in the case of David Bell. The only thing
he left behind was letter written to his
brother but 1t had evidently been written
before he contemplated suicide for it only
referred TO family matters. In the case of
the two children n verdict of accidental
death was rendered. That so many deaths
should occur at the same place from differ
ent causes in SC short time created great
gossip.
Story of a Superstitious Spell.
The story was started that a spell must
have been cast over the place and though it
may not have been given much attention it
was noticeable that of all the crowd that
visited the scene of horrors not one person
would tOuch bit of the debris which lay
scattered around. In fact as one looked on
the place Il sort of shudder ran over each
spectator like those chills which would come
in childhood days when nurse told us the
nursery tales which were used TO frighten
children into subjection.
As for the house itself it was owned by
the Carrie Furnace Company, where Mr..
McGT8ctan was a foreman. The total loss is
about - 500. Mr.. McGrattan had 5000 in
surance on his household goods placed in
the Iron City Insurance Company. Mr..
McGrattan also claims that he had $500 in
cash in the house.
Besides these tragedies another was added
TO the list in the afternoon. The little
daughter of Robert LennoX. of Braddock,
had gone to a picnic at Bissell. While
playing with some other children in the
railroad turntable the little girl was caught
and crushed. She died before she could be
taken home.

NEVER SAW HIS BRIDE.

Lee Que, a Pittsburg Chinaman, Going
Home to Marry-He Will Return, but
Cannot Bring His Wife to America
With Him.
Lee Que, q well-to-do Chinaman Of the firm
of Quong & Wah, of No. 81 Grant street, is
going home to become a husband. His bride
he has never seen and cannot even tell her
name. The match was arranged by his
mother and the parents of the bride-to-be
four years ago, and, according to his native
custom, Que will go over and marry her.
After the honeymoon he must tear himself
away and return to this country. Owing to
the immigration laws he will be forced to
leave his bride behind when he returns to
America.
Lee Que is q years of age and has been in
this country l3 years. He has been engaged
in the laundry and Chinese notion business
in this city for nearly five years. During
that time he has laid by a snug little sum,
which will go toward the purchase of a little
plot of ground and q house for the almond
eyed beauty who will bear his name.
Four years ago, when he received word
that his bride had been chosed, Que's busi-
ness was so pressing that his intention to
obey the order at once had to be postponed
from year to year. Even now he would put
it off another year were 1t not that his 1lancee
is so nearly of age that he fears she will
marry some other Celestial gentleman. There
is social custom in China, says Que, that
a woman is subject to her parents wishes
until she is 80 years of age, so far as matri-
mony is concerned. After that time she
NAV marry whomsoever 0he chooses.

will be 80 next January. He expects to land
in Canton, in suburb of which the lady
lives, about the 30th of August. The cere-
mony will be performed a few days later and
the festivities will continue about two weeks.
Que will remain iE China about seven
months and will return then to his business
here. He expects to go back periodically to
visit his wife every two or three years and
seems to think that a very satisfactory ar
He says there are Cinnamon in
this city who have not seen their wives for

st. Bridget's Church Succumbs to an
Affection of the Throat of Long Stand
ing-Sketch of His Career.
Rev. Father Jerome Kearney, pastor of ST.
Bridget's Church, died at the parochial resi-
dence, Wylie avenue, yesterday afternoon,
at $50 o'clock. He succumbed to an affection
of the throat from which he suffered for the
last three years. He visited Florida two
years in the hope of getting relief,
and spent last summer and winter at
Atlantic City, returning unimproved. He
wasted away slowly, but the announcement
of his approaching dissolution made to his
congregation last Sunday was q shock to
his Pensioners. He has been their pastor
for Ii years and was esteemed and respected
and held place in the affections of his
flock second only to the extent of his own
zeal and regard for his charge. His brother,
Rey. Dennis kearney, pastor of st. Patriclxs,
and his nephew, Rev. Father Graham, of La
trobe, have been constant in their attend
ance upon the reverend divine, and were at
his bedside ut the last. The funeral will be
on Monday at 9 A.. NJ.
Rev. Father jerome Kearney was born in
the County Carlow, Ireland, 81 years ago
He received his ministerial training and
was ordained at Carlow Seminary. He has
been in the ministry IS years. The deceased
priest and his brother, Father Dennis, came
to the Pittsburg diocese in the time of
Bishop O'Connor. Father Jerome was ener-
getic in his solicitude for the temporal as
well as the spiritual welfare of his flock.
He lately enlarged the parochial school and
hoped to see 1t finished. He has and will
stand as memento mort of q clergyman
who succeeded in attracting to himself the
admiration and friendship of many outside
OF his creed as well as the devotion and af-
fection of his own people.
