pies the floor above. MIS-. Daniels Is a
widow, and has pretty Partisan maid,
named Marie Matthias.
Mrs Daniels charged Mrs. Place with
the theft OF a silk skirt trimmed with

According to Mrs. Daniels, the skirt
had been hung upon the railing Of her
fire escape, II was blown off and fell
upon Mrs. Places fre-escape, and she
saw her take In the skirt, which she has
since refused to return.
Mrs. Daniels came to court on Tuesday
and related her story to Justice Nc
Mahon, who sent Court officer Beller to
arrest Mrs. Place on the day following.
When the case was called he found the
older woman greatly excited. The JUS
tice adjourned the case until the follow

night In Yorkville Prison, in default of
1900 bail, having failed to notify her
friends.

1t seems that Mrs. Place had been an
noyed by noise in Mrs. Daniels's room al
unseemly hours. Mrs. Place complained
to the agent. who called the janitor's at
tention to 1t. but nothing came of the
complaint.

Quoted by Col. Ingersoll. involving the
disposition OF several millions OF dol.
lars which belonged to the estate of
her dead husband.
The maid. according to the officer,
also bore good reputation. and is said
to be worth some money also. Regard
ing the maids name on the doorplate,
Beller said 1t was general practice
about the neighborhood to assist letter
carriers.
Mrs Daniels and Mrs. Place stuck to
their stories without changing their
evidence. His Honor held Mrs. Place
for trial.

had read the dispatches about Gov.
Mitchells opposition to a fight taking
place in Florida
"All this talk Is the same as that
which preceded my match with Mitch

formation in regard to what arrange
ments have been made to pull Off the
the articles, the Florida Athletic Club
will have to post the entire purse sew
eral months before the date of the match

I'm the event that the fight Is pre-
vented in Florida I'll go to New Or
leans. ! am going to fight FitZsimmons,
and am perfectly willing to go where
can do so without interference. There'll

.DUNRAVEN WILL CHALLENGE.
He Has Decided to Build Again
for the Americas Cup,
The New Craft Will Probably BE
About the Size OF Britannia.

LONDON, oct. 13.-The Field says that
Lord Dunraven has practically decided
10 build new challenger for the Amerl-
cas- cup. II will be a cutter the size OF
the Britannia or trlne longer. The
paper adds
This perhaps, under the circumstan-
ces. Is the best decision, as we have no
yachts that a 7O-footer could fairly be
tried against. We understand that Lord
Dunraven has not communicated with
the New York Yacht club yet. but the
conditions that ruled last years matches
Will probably prevail"
The Yacht Racing Association met yes
terday and discussed questions OF rating,
including the possibility of common in
ternatlonal rating. The discussion was
adjourned for a week
When Mr.. II. Maitland Kersey, the
agent of the White Star line and Lord
Dunrayen's. close friend and represen-
tative in this country, was shown a copy
Of the above despatch this morning, he
said
while / think Lord Dunravens pref
erence would probably be for a smaller
craft, ! believe this report Is correct.
or course, the dimensions of the boat
would not be made public till IA challenge
had been issued and mailed to New York
Yacht club" "
"Stil you believe there is no doubt
that Lord Dunraven Is building some
sort of yacht to compete against Amer-
can boats next year?" Mr.. Kersey was
asked.
We'll" replied he. 81 have not heard
from Lord Dunraven very lately, but
that assumption is warrantable."
What size do you think the new
boat will be?"
Doubtless Gen. Paine would like to
have trial of Jubilee against an Eng
lish boat and as MIR. Walker Is build
ing an SO-rater on the other side, 1t Is
likely Lord Dunraven Will have his
latest venture Of about the same size"

LONG ISLAND CITY, l.. l., Oct. 13.-
The carelessness of some official con-
nected with the City Clerks office will
probably result in this city having only
three days for registration instead of
the four days allowed by law. The
official notice stated that the days of
registration would be Oct. 6, l8, 20 and
q. Under the law which governs all
cities in the State outside OF New York
and Brooklyn the first day of registra.
ton should have been Sept. 81 instead
of Oct. 6. 1t Is contended that the
Registry Board cannot sit for any pur-
pose on Oct. q except to rectify mis-
takes, and that no new names can be
taken.
Unless some provision of the law can
be found to allow the Board to register
on Oct n. there viii be only one more
day Of registration here; In any event,
there is likely to be legal contest on
the part of unsuccessful candidates on
the grounds. first, that the board had no
such power, and, second, II they do not
register names that the voters were de-
prived of their rights,
