from THE CITY HALL.
A Dull Dsy Closes Up the Business OF the
Past week


The City Engineer has awarded the
contract for the repairing Of Eighth
north of Leigh street and the filling In
Of the tunnel underneath TO Mr.. S. +.
Clay as the lowest bidder. The City Coun
ell has awarded the sum Of $4,000 for
this work. 1t is hardly probable, how
ever that that amount Will be sufficient
to complete the job.
The Committee on Police held its
monthly meeting in Room No. II of the
City Hall yesterday afternoon and trans
acted the usual amount Of routine bust
ness.
The Committee on Claims and Salaries
will have a called meeting tomorrow
evening at o'clock in the same room.
The Common Council will hold its
monthly meeting in the Council chamber
tomorrow evening at o'clock. The
usual amount Of routine business will
have to be disposed Of, but as far as
known at present nothing Of very great
Importance will be considered. 1t is pos
sible that the question will be discussed
whether the number of janitors in the
City Hall shall be increased. The work
in the building is so voluminous that
the present number Of jantors is not
sufficient to keep the interior and exte-
rior of the City Hall thoroughly clean.

COMMISSIONER ELIAS SuED.
Made Defendant with Henry Hart
in an Action for $4,000.
Mrs. Esler Says Her Husband Secured
$500, 600 Loan for Them.

Henry Hart and Albert j. Elias, the
newly appointed Commissioner of Edu-
cation, are defendants in IL suit which
mas been brought by Rebecca -. Esler
for $2,J00 for commissions alleged to be
due her husband, Frederick b. Esler,
in negotiating the renewa of Il big
loan foT the defendants.
The papers state that the defendants,
who are largely Interested in the Third
Avenue Railroad company, in october
last. made IA contract with +. u. Esler
to seCur" IN. renewal of this loan made
By the metropolitan Trust Company Of
S3OO,OV and upwaius, agreeing to pay him
II commission Of | per cent. If he was
successful.
The case came no to-day before Jus
tice Lawrence in supreme Court Cnam-
bers. on u motion made by Lawyer Eos
ter. for the plaintiff. fur AN order to
eXamine thr defendants. in order to
prove his complaint IN the action.
The atiilaNits allegc, upon information
ana belief, that at the time the loan
fell due. the defendants were greatly
rowing money. except through Esier.
They had pledged 2,4W shares of the
Third Avenue Railroad Company with
the Metropolitan Trust Company to So
cure the loan, but at that time, the par
value of the securities would not cover
the amount of the loan and the
sale OF. the stock would ave caused the
ruin OF the defendants"
1t wns further stated that they had
Induced Esler 10 accept Sou0 on account
but had refused to pay the balance Of
the commission, which Wa3 due. aS he
had been successful in securing II re-
newal of the loan.
The exact amount OF the loan was
stated 10 he unknown TO the plaintiff, or
the terms Of the renewal, and II was for
the purpose of ascertaining these facts
Us well as others that application had
been made for the examination Of the
Defendants.
The motion was opposed by Hoadly &,
II~auterbach, who assert that the plaintiff
really had no cauGe of action against
the defendants, and that she was only
fishing for evidence to establish one, il
possible. Justice Lawrence reserved his
leCislon.

The man was poorly clad. wearing an

AS he made this remark, he gripped
his satchel more tightly.
The other persons In the office he

LA MAZDA IN CONTEMPT.
Failed to Pay $95.45 to an Heir OF
DE Bcnedetta-Cairo

Charles La Mazda, the Republican pol
%itician. who is contrasting the seat of
Assemblyman O'Donnell, In the Eighth
District, was adjudged in contempt to-
day by Surrogate Fitzgerald.
La Mazda was guardian for the heirs
of the estate of Angelo DE Benedetta-
Cairo, and the trouble began when one
of his wards, Nicolu Cairo. came of age
some time ago. He demanded a settle
ment with La Mazda, claiming that he
had been defrauded Of 5000.
Lawyer Roswell ID. Hatch, to whom
the matter was referred, decided that
$3.50 was due to Cairo, and that $y5.iJ
should be paid Immediately.
Surrogate Ransom ordered La Mazda
to pay over this sum-, but he failed to do
so. Then came an order to show cause
why he should not be punished for con-
tempt, which was returnable to-day.
La Mazda failed to put in an appear
ance, and Lawyer Meyer, Cairo's coun-
sci, demanded that default be taken.
This was objected to by a clerk of Law W
yer Hyman, La Maida's counsel, who
said tina the law yer was sick and not
able to attend court.
This was denied, however, by Lawyer
Never, who informed Surrogate FitZ-
gerald that he had seen La Mazda and
his counsel together this mornig. Upon
this the Surrogate took the default, and
unless La Mazda pays over the money
at once he will find himself in hot water.
