xALE,s NEW TANK BOAT.

Ynle's Crews Are Made Happy Once
more-How It Operates at the Rich
ards Gymna SUM.
James N. Andrus, Yale navy's janitor,
has this winter constructed q new tank
boat for the Richards gymnasium. Ex-
cepting few improvements in its lines, 1t
Ia similar to the boat he first invented and
built for the boys in 1889, which was the
first of that style of boat ever made. A
look at this later piece of ingenuity and
workmanship would convince one that the
invention was worthy of considerable
note. The boat is built of 15ineh plank
and strongly braced and bolted to adapt
1t to the heavy strain subject to the Yale
| muscle while in use It is 81 feet inches
in length, 16 inches across the bottom and
ID inches across the top at the gunwales,
and is built faring, to prevent shipping
water. All the measurements of the rig
ging correspond with last summers var
sity shell that won the race ct New
London, although there is pc
that is not found in any other boat.
The foot-Iests and seats are adjustable,
enabling the oarsman to shift his OWL
| rigging momentsrily to his ~own satisfac-
ton, thus avoiding the long tedious job Of
changing the rigging in the old way with 6
multiplicity of tools; also gaining an ad
vantage in time, from keeping a crew
waiting from fifteen to twenty minutes ir
the old way, down to g moment or two
Another important addition to Mr.. And
rus invention is curiously CONSTRUCTED
iron clamp which joins the boat together
amidships, the boat being in two sections
This contrivsnce Ia so made that by tight
ening up the bolts it draws the sectiop
tighter together, making it very strong snt
even air tight. The advantage of the boa
being in sections renders 1t convenient t,
take 1t apart to move, requiring less hell
and less space and 1t Is also better adapted
for shipment. Every improvement ha
been made for the comfort and conven
ienoe of the crew, and they will find it
great advantage when racing day come
around.
The boat was made at the boat hous
an uncomfortable temperature to plan on
work in, where exercise had to supply tn
place of fuel. 1t was placed in the gym
| nasiuu on last Thursday, and the crew
praoticed their first rowing on Saturday
and everything WAS a pleasing success
This ia sister boat to the one Mr.. Andru
invented and built for Captain Woodru.
in the winter of 1889, the first boat of ths
kind ever invented, it being sugges 10
of his own and it revolutionized all gym
nasium rowing exercises, as he claimed
would. 1t is remarkable howquickly othe
!, colleges are adopting tho same style {
boat and rowing exercises, and they wi
: soon become universal; and they will all 500
be enjoying the fruits Of this valuable IL
vention, proving too we'll the value of NJ
| Andrus' solution.
Mr.. Andrus is native of the Berkshil
hills, Massachusetts,, and is born Ysnke
and has been genius in this work frol
his childhood. He has been an originate
: and constructor of many very useful 81

BURGLARIzED FOR CASH.
Mr.. Walter Coney's Residence Entered
by a Bold Thief.

The residence of Mr.. Walter Coney at
No. 151 Barnard street was burglarized
night before last. The thief made his
entrance on the first floor by cutting the
Stats of the blinds and then reaching in
side and opening the blinds.
The window sash being up on account
of the heat he had no trouble in effecting
his entrance The thief made his way
up to Mr.. Coney's bedroom on the second
floor, where Mr.. Coney and his wife were
sleeping, took Mr.. Coney's clothes and
carried them down stairs where he ri
fled the pockets and left them When Mr..
Coney awoke yesterday morning his
clothes were missing. On searching he
found them down stairs in the front room
where the thief had left them The
strangest part about the matter was that
the thief only took what money he found
in the pockets and left Mr. Conveys gold
watch and chain and several other small
Ter articles. 1t seems that he only want
ed money as nothing else in the house was
disturbed.
Neither MIR. Coney nor his wife were
awakened by the intruder, and there was
no suspicion of the burglary until yester-
day morning

A WIN Conteated.

The contest over the win of Carnelius
Donovan, involving about $4,000 worth of
property, come up for trial before Judge
Falligant yesterday morning
Donovan, who was formerly a watch
man at one of the cotton presses, left the
bulk of his property when he died to one
of his daughters, Mrs. Michael O'Con-
nell, His other daughter, HonOra Foley,
he disinherited.
Through her attorneys, Saussy &
Saussy, Mrs. Foley, who has been in jail
for some time on serious charge, brought
suit to break the will on the ground that
Donovan was not of sound mind when he
made it. The will had been witnessed by
Messrs. j. J. Sullivan, w G. Charlton and
Samuel Reynolds, and Mr. Charlton
represented the defendants. Michael V.
O'Connell had been appointed executor by
Donovan and had applied to the ordinary
for letters testamentary
Then came the caveat of Honora Foley
to the probate and letters testamentary
on the ground that Donovan was not of
sufficient mental capacity to make a valid
will. 1t charged also that he was biased
against his daughter, Honora Foley, and
asked that the will be declared null and
void
Mrs. Foley claimed that Mrs O'Connell
had an undue influence over Donovan
actions. She acknowledged, however,
having disobeyed her fathers wishes in
several respects. Mrs. O'Connell ex-
planned the reasons which led her sister
to leave home. The jury took the case
under consideration and were out but n
few minutes They decided that the will
was that of Cornelius Donovan, and that
the caveat should not hold.

WHAT WILL THEY DO WITH TIP
Hover's Stomach Is Creating a Great
Deal of Trouble.

dONO1 > 0LOIudcn Is OE0dJlnB q Great
Deal of Trouble.
What is to be done with Hover's stom-
ache is a question which is on almost
everybody's lips.
Now that the post norton has been held
and that organ amputated for chemical
inspection, it seems to be pulling the
officials no little bit to determine how to
dispose of it.
They have decided for the present to
leave it in its Theoretically sealed lar.
packed in straw and secured by a stron 2
box. Even thus secured they have placed
it in an iron safe, aud locked it almost
beyond the power of thieves to steal.
A day or two ago acting Coroner Shelf
tall decided not to place it in the hands of
the chemist on account of the fact that
the physicians had certified that there
were two other causes either of which
might have produced death. Coroner
Sheftall's action was sustained by a tel
egram received yesterday from Solicitor
General Fraser in response TO a letter
from acting Solicitor Salas saying Don't
send HOver's stomach until you hear from
me"
These Instructions were obeyed and
yesterday the precious organ was placed
within walls of iron, behind a combina-
ton lock, where il will remain until fur
ther orders. In view of the circumstan-
ces in the case the question as to what
disposition will be made of it will be
awaited with interest.

Two Divorces Granted and Another
Wanted.

The superior court has became famous
as a forum ufor the adjudication
of differences arising out of unhappy mar
ital relations.
The unhappily united all bring their
troubles there, and all it takes to get re-
lief from this state is good grounds and a
few fair witnesses. The iuries are very
lenient especially when the woman is the
plaintiff and seeks articles of separation
from her troublesome liege lord.
Yesterday two applicants for relief
from their unpleasant ties were accorded
favor and Justice at the hands of the
superior court jury. Mrs Ardella NJ
Farmer, whose husband it seems deserted
her some time ago and went to Texas
presented her complaint ON these grounds
and got q first verdict.
Susan Blizzard was equally as for
tunate. 1t seems, according to her
story, that Stafford D., her hus-
band, beat her, and, on several oc-
casions, otherwise cruelty treated her.
The jury deciding that such should not 90
on any longer, gave her q first verdict
The petitioner Sarah Riley, asked to be
released from the bonds which tie her to
Fred Riley. Riley was arrested some
time ago, on a warrant from Judge
Naughtin's court, charging him with big
amy, in that he, while tine husband Of
Sarah, married Betsey Graham, and
drove his lawful wife from her
home. Riley is now in Jail,
and Sarah, his legal wife
flied her petition for relief in the superior
court yesterday. The defendant is or
dered to appear August 12, and show
cause why the petition should not be
granted

IN JUSTICES HALLS.
The Famous John Doe Wins His Suit
Against Richard Roe.

Court - Cornelius Donovan's Will

Damages-Solioitor General Fraser

The suit of j. I. Soutter VS.. Eugene
Kelly, better known as the case of John
Doe vs.. Richard Roe brought, as it was,
in this manner under an old English Gus
tom, was tried in the superior court yes
terday before Judge A. H. MacDonel.
Judge Falligant was disqualified to enter
tain the hearing, as he was one of the at
torneys originally interested in the suit.
and Judge MacDonell was called in.
The suit was for an undivided one
eighth interest in the wharfuproperty.
buildings and improvements lying Just
east of the exchange dock The prop
erty was originally conveyed to G. ID. R.
Lamar by G. B. Lamar to be held in trust
for himself and his three sisters. One of
the sisters. obtained an order of
court some three or four years
ago to sell the property
and in the sale the other sisters We're not
represented. j. 7. Soutter, son of one
of the sisters, brought this suit to recover
his interest, or that originally belonging
to his mother, being ene-eighth of the
property, amounting to between s., 900 and
s., 600.
There was no doubt as to the facts in
the case and the question which came be-
fore the Jury were all questions of law
Judge MacDonell therefore instructed the
jury to bring verdict for the plaintiff,
which was done. The case win 90 to the
supreme court. The only questions con-
cerned were those involving law points,
and the defendants will of course ask the
supreme court to construe them.

IT WILL PROBABLY REOPEN.
The Controller is Looking With Favor
On Rrnswick'a Bank.

There is little doubt now that the First
National Bank OF Brunswick will be
reopeued within a few days, and as it
seems under very auspicious circum-
stances.
Controller EclScls has looked with favor
on that bank and although he sappuinted
a receiver some time ago, he has mover
levied any assessment on the stockholders.
This has NOT been done on account OF the
fact that he has been considering prOpo-
sition from the stockholders to take up
the bank assets and liabilities and reor-
ganize the Institution.
Pending the consideration of the propO-
sitiOn no assessment has been levied, and
1t was learned here yesterday that the
controller had agreed TO the proposition
and that it win 90 into effect shortly.
MOI only this but there is another plan
in the proposition by which one of the
two solvent banking institutions left in
Brunswick is to be amalgamated with the
First National and one good solid banking
institution formed, under the name of the
First National Bank Upon the creditors
relieving the bank Of this liability, the
controller will turn the bank over TO the
stockholders and they will probably ANAL
gamate 10 with one of the other banks and
assume the liabilities and assets. There
IS nlUle doubt DuU WndJ inns plan VIII De
pursued, and thus the stockholders will
be given an opportunity of realizing all
possible from the assets of the bank.
This is what the stockholders of the
Oglethorpe National bank wanted or
rather they made a similar proposition
to the controller, but it was given little
consideration. The stockholders of the
Oglethrope National Bank are now look
ing into the assets Of that institution with
view to reopening or winding up the
banks affairs. If they decide to reopen
the bank, similar proposition may be
made to the controller.

NO YELLOW FEVER HERE.
Health officer Drummer After the Per-
son Who Started the Report.

The Wilmington IN. c. Messenger Of
Aug. B, printed a telegram stating that a
vessel had been ordered to quarantine
from Savannah in charge of the mate, the
captain having died from yellow fever at
Savannah.
Health Officer Drummer received tele-
gram yesterday from the health officer at
Wilmington inquiring into the matter.
The report was an error of course. The
brig Nelson Rice, which arrived at Tybee
Aug. 2, reported that the captain had
died of yellow fever at Havana, and the
vessel was ordered to Sapelo to
await developments. This is the
only origin for the report. DIR. Drummer
wired the health officer at Wilmington
at once, making O correct statement of
the affairs
A dozen business houses on the day re-
ceived inquiries from their correspondents
in regard to the report. The Wilmington
Chamber of Commerce was telegraphed
a denial of the report. The health au-
thorities here are endeavoring to find out
from what source the report originated.

A DULL MARKET.
The Small Consumption Of Naval

The Small Consumption Of Naval
Stores Creates the Depression.
The bull movement in the naval stores
market or rather especially in the high
grade resins, has experienced, somewhat
ofa reversion during the last week or two
ana prices, which reached a good figure,
grew unsteady, wavered and fell rapidly
This upward movement was started by
firm of buyers, who sold through Lon
don brokers, but it was only artificial.
The tremendous falling of in home con-
sumption has had its effect and now prices
are almost where they were at the begin
ming of the season, and the stock on hand
Is almost double what it was at this time
last year. The decrease in the domestic
consumption was due no doubt to the gem
eral monetary stringcncy, and while the
foreign demand has kept up fairly well, 1t
by no means has been sufficient, even in
the face Of the decreased crop, TO hold up
the market
A few comparative statistics viii show
how things stand Domestic shipments
of rosins April ! to August l, 1892, AL
6l7 barrels; 1893, 1896 barrels, or a de-
crease of G5,241 barrels in the domestic
consumption for the same period Of last
year. Foreign shipments April l TO Au-
Sust 1, 1892, 1862, 6l0 barrels 1898, 257. $50
barrels Stock on hand this year, Au-
gust l, l43, l55 barrels 1892, 66,52S bar
rels, or an excess this year over last of
76,627. This excessive supply with little
or no demand has had its depressing eff
feet, and rosins are now way down.
1t is the same way with spirits Of tur-
pentine, The domestic consumption this
season has been 9,S18 barrels less than
for the same time last year, while there
has also been a slight decrease in the for
ghlnIOputE The stock hand
gust l was 25,S $50 barrels or 5,2l4 more
than last year. With the same demand
that prevailed last year, it will therefore
be seen that there would have been
scarcity of the supply and naval stores
would have commanded good figures.
