STRANGE to the proposed plan and said he

tween Charles and Ganscvoort streets
would be $500, 00.

s.. OO0,N 600.
Mr.. Nicoll added that the entire cost OF

money 1t should he spent In furnishing
what New York needed absolutely, rapid
transit.
Chairman ]. Sergeant Cram. of the
Dock Department, said that the Depart
ment's plan was one that met n crying
necessity; one hat was demanded by the
merchants of the city.

FITCH A NEPOTIST.
Didn't Announce He Had Appointed
This Relative.

The fact that Comptroller Fitch had
apopinted his brother-in-law. Ira Tay-
lor. to a 5000 clerkship in his depart
ment two weeks ago. was not an
nounced at the time by Mr.. Fitch, and
only leaked out through another source.
1t caused some sharp m to be
made around the city Hall to-day.
Mr.. Fitch has been more thar prompt,
he has been eager, to make public all
other matters connected with his office
that he wanted the public TO know.
Mr.. Fitch Is very sensitive to criticism.
He feels hurt because It has been said
that he will Tammanyize the Comptrol-
ler's office. He points out that none
of the men he has appointed is n mem

Appeal Given.

Surrogate Arnold this afternoon grant

The Surrogate stated, in rendering
this decision. that the evidence adduced

hat Lovecraft was OF unsound mind.
or had been unduly influenced, as he had
intelligently attended to his m~ultifarious

peal would be taken to the General

ants, offered In evidence two affida Wits.

men were witnesses to Lovecraft's will.
The first witness was william J. Glenn,
a clerk In the employ of the Coney Island
known Lovecraft for several years and
saw him almost every day last Summer.
He swore that during the week ending
Aug, %, 1893, Lovecraft seemed tired and
worn out. physically. but mentally he
seemed all right.
There has been some talk here of
Lovecraft tottering with a vacant stare
~ his eyes. Did you see anything of
that sort ?"
81 didn't see any vacant stare. I no.
ticed. however. that he didn't seem in
very robust health"
Under cross-examlnatlon, Glenn ad-
mitted having met Mrs. Salmons, Love-
crafts sister. He said he never told
her that Fred was in bad shape"

number of times. Once Col. Kearney
came to the Office of the Jockey Club to
say that Mr.. Lovecraft was not well and
wouldn't be down to the office unless
there was something important that re-
CURED his attention. Witness said 1t
was frequently necessary for him to GO
TO Lovecraft's fiat on business. He saw
Col. kearney there on several OF his
visits.
Did o ever see May Brooklyn at
Mr.. Lo~vecraft's fiat?" asked Lawyer
II did not. I don't know the lady
Did you ever see Helen Bancroft
there?''.
Il did not. l never saw any woman
maid"
James r. Keator. formerly President
or the American Mutual Register Com.
pany. in which Lovecraft was a stock,
holder. testified that the stock OF the
company was now worthless and had
been so since last July.
Peter A. King. n colored servant at tbs
Coney Island Jockey Club. where he has
been thirteen years. was the next wit
ness.
He said he saw no difference in Love
crafts appearance It the Fall meeting
han at other times.
Did Mr.. Lovecraft seem to you to b,
rationale"
Yes, sir"
After all the evidence was In Lawyer
