lice,nan Alfred G. Newell, who was re-
Gently convicted of eXtortion. was to-
day sentenced to two years in the peni-
tertiary by Judge Cowing, in Part III.

Ney'ell's counsel, Louis J. Grant, made
a motion for a new trial and arrest of
judgment. which the Court denied. The
case will be appealed.
In passing sentence Judge Cowing said
that this was the first case of bribery
that had been tried before him in fifteen
years. During this period the Judge said
ne had disposed Of at least 1900 cases.
The maximum penalty for bribery Is
ten years, but In view of the
dalton to mercy by the jury. Judge
Cowi~ 6 imposed as light a sentence a.
he possibly could.
Newell was found guilty of taking a
gold watch from August Cordes early
in the morning of June q last. Cordes
was in Central Park with his sweet
heart. and Newell threatened to place
them under arrest unless he got 500.
Capt. Collins, of the park police. ar

was about to redeem the watch. His
defense was that he loaned Cordes 500

The Judge announced that the Ease

Road Into the City,
Not Yet Submitted to Ell" People
or City Omcials.

President Mcleod, Of the New York
and New England Railroad, is back in
the city again. He is talking very free
ly about his plans for bringing his road
into New York.
He says hat there will he no delay in
constructing the branch from the main
line near Brewsters to New York, and
that some arrangement will undoubted-
ly be made with the Manhattan Rail-
way Company to bring passengers right
INTO New York.
The termlna depot, he saws. will be in
every way as fine and attractive as the
Grand Central, and will be right in the
heart OF the city.
He will not say definitely. however.

OBJECT TO ASSESSM EMF.
TIE Paving of Liberty Street Taken
to Superior Court.

Pringle and Adolph l.. Goudran. proper
ty owners on Liberty street, between
Washington and West streets. to-day
obtained from Judge Gillersleeve. of the
Superior Court, an order requiring the
Board of Revision and Correction of the
Assessment Lists to show cause why
they should not be prohibited from re-
vising or affirming the assessments for
the paving OF Liberty street between
Washington and West streets.
The contract for the paving was made
in 1882, and these parties were assessed
1928. 1t is alleged that as the street was
once paved at the expense of the proper
ty owners, ana as this paving was not
done upon the request Of n majority of
the property owners, the city has
no power to make the present assess
II ent upon the owners of property there.

THANKS TO Nh. CLEVELAND.
Chamber of Commerce Appreciates
Passage Of Silver Repeal.
Refused to Indorse the North River
Bridge Bill.

AT the regular monthly meeting Of the
Chamber of Commerce, this afternoon.
the report of the Committee on Harbor
and Shipping, in regard to the Hudson
diver bridge. was the principal subject
Of discussion.
The report was presented by James
D. L. Stranahan. 1t favored the bill as
presented to Congress. The committee
said that the care heretofore evinced by
the eminent Board of United States
Engineers in laying down the harbor
lines and limits. warranted the conclu-
sion that the entire matter might be
safely left where it now is, both by ex-
listing law and the bill in question.
President j. Edward Simmons, of the
Fourth National Bank, objected to the
report on the ground hat the bill did
not specify the location of piers that
might be erected and which might in
terfeTe with m and shipping.
He thought the Chamber should not
comrlit itself as favoring the bill in its
existing form.
He therefore moved to refer the re-
port back to the Committee with in
structiors to have both the report and
the bill now before Congress printed,
and TO repor further at the next meet
Ing OF the Chamber.
n report was also received from the
special committee appointed last July
to consider the silver question and urge
the repeal of the Sherman act.
A resolution was adopted expressing
the opinion Of the Chamber that the
thanks of the entire country We're due
to the President and members of the
Senate and House of Representatives
who gave their u~nwavering support to
sound money principles.
Another resolution was offered and
adopted that the special committee on
quarantine be authorized to cooperate
tee, of the New York Academy of Med
icine in its efforts to secure efficient
legislation from Congress with refe-
renee to the establishment OF a perma-
nent health organization under the Ma
tional Government.

RUM0Rs ABOUT HUNTINGTON.
Said to Be Selling Securities and
Disposing Of Steamers.
He Admits Some Of the Stories, but
Denies Others.

heavy seller OF securities, and tina he
had realized from recent sales upward
of $1,000 900 in cash. with which he pro.
posed to 60 into the market AZ a large
