FREEHOLD, N j., Oct. 20.-One dovel-
opement in the fight which the Adams
Express Company is making to recover
the money of which, it is alleged, its
stockholders were defrauded, was the
filing of two heavy mortgages and a
lease signed by John Hoey in County
Clerk Haight's Office yesterday.
All three instruments are dated Satur-
day Oct II, and were executed and
sworn to before Wilbur A Heisley, ex-
Mayor of Long Branch, who is one of
Hoey's lawyers They cover all of MIR.
Hoey's property in and around Long
Branch. The most important is a mort
gage for $4S 900 to Michael Quirk and
Frederick Q. Hoey as trustees 1t is
meant to secure to the Long Branch
Banking Company the payment of
money which Mr. Hoey may hereafter
borrow upon his promissory notes
Frederick @. Hoey is John Hoey's
youngest son, who has managed the
Hollywood Hotel for three seasons past.
Michael Quirk is superintendent of Mr..
Hoey's Long Branch property.
The second mortgage is to William NJ.
Thiess for $50, 900. Mr.. Thiess is a trus-
tee of something or another not men
toned. The lease puts Frederick c.
Hoey in possession of the Hollywood Ho-
tel and the II cottages attached to it for
term of 12 years.

SHERIDAN ON GREGG.
The Gallant Cavalry Chiefs Opinion
of This Brave PennsyIvanian.

The Gallant Cavalry Chiefs Opinion
of This Brave Pennsylvania.
When it is remembered that the great
and gallant commander, General Sheri-
dan, was not lavish or indiscriminate in
his praise of officers under his command,
his words of commendation for General
d. Mem. Gregg will be considered all
the more significant. The fight made
by Gregg at st. Mary's Church in June,
1864, was one of the many brilliant and
stubborn struggles in which he was the
commander of the Union forces.
Sheridan, in his memoirs, after de-
scribing the persistency and devotion Of
Gregg and his division in this particu-
lar fight, says;
"Gregg's losses were heavy and he
was forced to abandon his dead and most
seriously wounded, but the creditable
stand made insured the safety of the
train, the last wagon of which was now
packed at Wilcox's landing.
Ellis steady, unflinching determine
tion to gain time for the wagons to get
beyond the point of danger was charac-
teristic of the man, and this was the third
occasion on which he exhibited high or
der of capacity and sound judgment
since coming under my command. The
frmness and GOODNESS with which he al
ways met the sponsibilities of dan
gerous place were particularly strong
points in Gregg's makeup"
