NEW YORK. Jan. 81. 1S92.-Albert Scar
want was sentenced to ten years imprison-
ment at hard labor in the State Prison at
Sing Sing by Judge Moore in the Brook
lyn Court of Sessions this morning.
The penalty for the crime, Judge
Moore said, was five years at the least and
ten years at the most of hard labor in a
State prison. There was no reason why
Searvant should not get the full benefit
of the law.
The crime was one of the most atrocious
and despicable that the Judge had ever
met with. 1t was committed with the
full intention to kill. That the prisoner
had failed to cause death was owing more
to chance and good luck than to any
thing else.

Long session Of tho Hoard OF Health
-The Fair Haven Sluiceway Not
Dangerous TO Public Health-Tho
sewage From Adeline Street-Other
Measures Aiming at More Perfect |
Sanitation.
The board of health held q protraeted
meeting and the amount of business
brought before them for disposal indicated
the extra exertions the board are making
in getting the city into the best possible
sanitary condition. III,
Mr.. Grant reported on the Fair Haven
sluiceway that, as public health was not
endangered by 1t, no steps need be
taken in the matter until the litigation
pending between the town and Messrs.
Hemingway and Rowe in relation to this
should be settled. The board tabled the
matter indefinitely.
DR.. Winchell made . report on the
condition of the drainage of Adeline
street.
The cesspool water of the street is
drained down bank into a small pond
near the Boulevard sewer. The board of
public works cut hole in the side of the
sewer to drain off this sediment, but when
the tide is in it washes through the aper-
ture, carrying in refuse from the sewer.
DR.. Winchen thought the best means to
be taken would be to ask the board of
public works to fill in the pond and then
make an opening in the top of the sewer
to drain off the surface water. The tide
water would not WISH through the aper-
kuro of fhia y,1oco Rasi1oo fbSo q
he thought, ought to be put in Adeline
street. However, as these improvements
will consume some time, as an immediate
| relief the residents of Adeline street should
| be cautioned to be as careful to keep the
| place as clean as may be. The board au-
thorized the committee to confer with the
board of public works on the matter.
| Mr. Grant told of his visit to Wards
place at SO Oak street. Here there are q
! couple of subterrsnean passages used as
bake ovens, storage house for vegetables
the latter that very offensive odor per.
meated the whole neighborhood. Tht
board decided that the privy must be re-
moved and the place filled up by October 1
The owners of 81 and 80 Oak street, whose
privy vaults were close enough to the He
brew church on that street to be offensive
to the congregation, were given till Novem
Der Is to remove the vaults.
Inspector Mix reported that the traps il
the water closets in Collins block, extend
ing on Chapel street from the Secont
National bank to the Union Office, wer,
not sufficient for the place and in conse
quence malodor prevailed in the house
The plumbing inspector was ordered t.
, visit the house and report. Mr.. Mix ais
reported that there was an old barn, be
| longing to Patrick Rogers standing at 25
Chapel street that was in dilspidate
condition, decaying and holding considers
BILE refuse matter. The board referred thi
to the fire marshal
Inspector Jackson reported that the COZ

vEXATIOUS DELAY.

The Cars of the Morris Cove Road
Again Obliged to Stop Runntng-A
Broken Piston Rod the Cause.
1t will be several days before the Morris
Cove electric road will be running again.
Yesterday morning the engine at the wire
mill, which drives the dynamos which gen
crate the power to propel the cars, broke
down. The break was caused by defec-
tive piston rod, which snapped off short,
almost running the cylinder of the engine.
The company immediately took steps to
have the break repaired, but they cannot
tell just how long it will be before the cars
can run again. The cars only resumed
running again Monday morning, after hav-
ing laid idle for several weeks on account
of the breaking of the fly wheel of the en-
CINE used to generate the power.
