RHINELANDER CLEARED.
Nine.Year Indictment for Shooting
Lawyer Drake Dismissed.

An indictment for assault in the first
degree, which has been hanging over the
head OF william G. Rhinelander, the
youngest son of the late wealthy land
owner. since July, 1884, was dismissed
by Judge Cowing in Part l. of the Gem
eral Sessions to-day. June 10. 1884. Rhine
lander shot Lawyer John Drake in the
%latter's office. 70 Cedar street.
District-Attorney Nicoll recommended
the dismissal, srd on the back of the
Indictment wrote the following indorse-
ment:
finding Of this Indictment. Shortly there
after a commission was appointed to in
and q r. jorlty Of the the cor anSin9 w re-
I'm the year 1885 the complainant
died, not as a result of the wounds sus-
sault, but from pneumonia. In view of
the lapse of time and the death OF the
complainant and the doubts as to the
defendants mental condition, and in pur-
ali old indictments which it is not in
tended to bring to trial., l recommend
hat the Indictment be dismissed"
On the day OF the shooting Rhinelander
called at brakes office. 1t was through
the lawyer that all communication be-
tween young Rhinelander and his father
was had, an ~estrangement having been
caused by his marriage to n servant.
Rhinelander went into the lawyers
private office and there shot him, the
bullet, striking him in the arm. 1t was
feared that the arm would ave to be
amputated. but he subsequently recov-
cred from the wound. He died March
2S, 1856.
Rhinelanier was arrested and locked
up in the Tombs,. and a Lunacy Com
mission was appointed to determine his
mental condition. 1t reported him
insane, but Recorder Smyth refused to
accept the report. Nov. 3, 1884, he was
released on bail. and a few days later
leased in $50 900 bail, and there the pro-
ceedings dropped.

NEW YORK TO BE DOCKED.
She VIII BE Ready for Sea In
Five Days.

At the Navy-Yard to-day preparations
were being made to put the United
States cruiser New York In drydock to-
at the yard claim they have received
no orders indicating that the New York
will be sent to Brazil, the report from
Washington that she is to be sent to
Rio Janeiro Is generally believed.
Capt. Philip, who is commander OF the
New York. said this morning that the
vessel would be ready for sea in five
days, and that II ordered to proceed in
haste she could reach Rio IN o thir-
teen ava,
I'VE will put her In dry dock at high
tide tomorrow morning." he said, PRO
vided the northwest wine does not con-
linue to blow the water out of the bay;
As the wind Is blowing to-day 1t would
hardly be possible to get the vessel In
dock. If conditions are favorable, how
,ver. there will be no trouble whatever:
1T will q two days to serape and
will be taken out and coaled. That Will
require two days more;
although the New York could reach
Rio In thirteen days. II Is not likely that
such a quick would be made.

ried I'm COAL"
1t Is reported that the Miantonomoh
may also be sent to Brazil. One OF her
dynamos is out of order, but there
is another which IL thought sufficient.
The dynamos are used for nothing but
lighting the ship, and II necessary, 1t
is pointed out, oil lamps could be
used. At the Navy-Yard to-day 1t was
stated that the Miantonomoh would be
ready for equipment by Thursday.
The Machias n Dolphin are also
ready for sea.
Although II Is not thought that these
vessels will be ordered to Rio. Navy
Yard attaches would not be surprised
at such a step, since the Administers
ton has considered 1t necessary to
order Rear Admiral Benham to Rio to
take charge of the fleet there.

Little Prospect of His Continuing in

Juror Alexander b.. Low was reported
at the insane pavilion, Bellevue Hospi-
tai, this morning, to be in the same con-
dition as yesterday. That means that he
Is quiet, though highly nervous, easily
excltable, n at times very much ex-
cited. &c.,
No visitors are allowed to see him,
and the outcome of the attack that
mad him insane while In the jury-box
In the trial of DIR. Meyer for poisoning
Ludwig Brandt Is still problematical.
Drs. Carlos F.. Macdonald and Charles
l.. Dana, selected by Justice Barrett to
look into the case of Juror Low, declined
to anticipate the report which they will
submit. to. the Court tomorrow. 1t Is
probable, however, that they Will report
that It would be inadvisable and danger

to return him to the Jury-box and sub
init him to any further strain or excite

this ruling. Then they may, sue out a

LOGAN ROOFS WILL.

After Remembering Ills Relatives an"
 Friends He Gives Liberally 10 e""'s
 and to the City of Little
 Wealthy Man With a Kind Heart
 The Little Rock correspondent of the Globe-Democrat in telegraphing tha' paper on the Sd. stated that since the death of Col. Logan H. Roots, great interest has centered on his last will and testament, and much speculation has been indulged in as to what dls- position the millionaire banker made of his vast fortune. It was generally believed that he left everything to hls immediate relatives, but such is not the case. The will was found in his private safe the day after his death. It will be probated next Friday. Your corre- spondent has seen the document and from it gleaned the following facts: The will was drawn by himself in 1891; later in the same year codicil was at tached. while he was in New ork city. His widow. Emily Roots; his brother, ]. of New York. are named as the eX- ecutors of the estate, which IS valued at s1, 400, ,Oe0, consisting of cash and government and railroad bonds, eX- elusive of the s70,O0o insurance on his life. and is to be held intact until 1914. One-half of the income up to that time goes to his widow and daughter for their support. One-tenth of the in- come is to be devoted to charitable and humanitarian purposes, to be determined by the execu- tors; one-tenth goes to Maj. P. K. Roots and his family, and another tenth to his sister, Mrs. Kingsly. of Tamaroa, III. The remaining two- tenths are to be invested. He au- thorizes an income of s2O,000 to be paid to the city of Little Rock for the period of twenty years for the support of the poor and needy. After the year 1914, after the payment of legacles amounting to $500. .000. the residue of the estate. in the event the state of Arkansas, county of Pulaski, or the city of Little Rock, or the residents thereof, will raise an equal fund, is to go to the city for park and hospital purposes, and if within two years the proposition is not accepted or complied with by the city of Little Rock the trustees are directed to make like proposition to Hot Springs or Eureka Springs The resi- due named for park and hospital pur- poses will amount to nearly s70O, 900. A portion of the hospital is to be set aside for old and destitute masons. He be- lueaths to numerous Little Rock friends amounts ranging from s1, 1000 to 5, GOO.
