SANDY HOOK, Jan. IL, 1893 -Llfe-Saving
Station No. 8. at Seabright, reports a
three-masted schooner and pilot boat
fast in the ice of Seabright.
They are fast in the Ice and drifting
slowly, but surely, on shore. The craft
are helpless in the Ice foe, and It is a
great question whether the life saving
station would be able to do anything for
the fmperilled men.
The sea is nasty and the thick downfall
of snow sits like fog over the waters, so
that the brave life savers can see but
little distance. Word was sent to New
York for tug. but up to ten O'clock
none had been sent to the aid Of the i'm
perilled crew.
The crew OF Station No will go to
their assistance and the crew of Station
No. 4, from Monmouth, will 90 out with
necessary apparatus.
The Station has telephoned that as

MARTIN WARDS WILL.

He Gives Most of His Estate to j ohm e.
Scott-The Widows Neagrs Portion.
The will of the late Martin Ward was
read by Lawyer John Linn yesterday.
1t was full of surprises. Mr.. Linn and
the widow declined to discuss the will
or give any definite Information
about it. This m uch is known;-It gives
to the widow one third of the real estate,
two houses at Nos. 50 and "a York street,
estimated to be worth $25, 900 or more. TO
a niece said to live in Ireland,
two thirds of the real estate; a few be-
quests aggregatingtnre or four thousand
dollars are made and the remainder OF
the estate is given to City Clerk John e.
Scott, who gained Wards esteem by
favors and sonars dealing.
F. Mrs. Ward appeared nervous and
agitated when a NEWS reporter asked
her about the will. After few
days she might talk about it, she said.
The will was not satisfactory, she would
say that much. She didn't know whether
she would contest 1t or not. MIR. Linn
mad the will. she said, and he would look
1t over carefully.
The estate is estimated to be worth
100000 or not less than $4,000. Justice
Frank T. Lockwood, In whose Office Mr..
Ward had desk and headquarters. is
not mentioned In the will
Mr.. Scott said he didn't know how
much property Mr.. Ward left. He knew
that he was named as one of the execu-
tors and that was about all he knew con-
cerning 1t.

MRS. HELMS DEATH.

Was Undoubtedly Acknowledgment
Farrier's Investigation.
Captain Fred. Farrier, of the First pre-
cinct, thoroughly investigated the death
of Mrs. Lizzie Helms, whose body was
found in the Morris Canal basin. near the
river, yesterday. and his conclusion is
that she was accidentally drowned.
The Captain took Heins' written
statement last evening. It gave no new
light. Captain Helms indignantly denied
that he said ne feared his wife had run
away. He had no such suspicion. Cap
tain James McWllliams who is Heins's
emrloyer, informed Captain Far
ries that he had known Helms
six years. BE was sober and steady Cap
tain Williams said, and seemed to live
happily with his wife. and he believed
there was no ground for sus-
picion OF murder. Captain John Me-
Clennen of the canal boat Tele-
phone testified to Captain Farrier that
Helms and his wife appeared to live in
perfect harmony.
When Helms left his wife the last time
she was trying on pair of slippers
he had just given her. She wore
one of the slippers when found.
The other was on piece of ice near her
body. The slippers were smooth bot
toned and the deck icy. The conclusion
is that the strong wind blew her down
the sloping, slippery deck into the basin,

Lease Broken?
special to The Jersey citv Ne,vs.

TRENTON, Jan. 12. 1898. = Chancellor
McGiil ffleb his opinion yesterday on the
application for Receiver for the Central
Railroad Of New Jersey. It decides
every point in favor Of the Attorney
General and orders Receiver.
The Chancellor holds that the Court
has power to appoint Receiver in such
cases. He declares that the Central
RAILROAD Company of New Jersey is re-
sponsible for the action of the Lehigh
and Wilkesbarre Coal Company, aud
that their action has violated the
injunction by arbitrarily fixin G the price
of coal by combination with the Reading
and Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company. The Chancellor insists
that Receiver should be appointed to
enforce the decree of the Court. but that
inasmuch as counsel for the Central have
asked permission to show an entire
abandonment of the leases ana agree
ments since the argument, Master will
first be appointed to ascertain whether
since the case was argued, and the. ap-
pointment of the Receiver will not be
made until the Master reports.
This decision is most valuable as
precedent In the Easton and Amboy case,
as well as conclusive In the Central.
IL will be reno mbered that on Oc tobcr
II. the Attorney General filed supple
mental information charging that the
injunction and orders Of the Chancellor
mad been willfully and deliberately
violated. An order to show cause was
granted why Receiver to enforce the
orders Of the Court should not be ap-
pointed as prayed for. The matter was
finally argued on the first day Of Decem-
ber.
