parents. Her father was Isaac w

a stand in banking circles, he was well
known and dearly beloved by all of the
prominent men of his age. He learned

partner in the firm of Duncan. Sherman

Charles A. Garfield, who remained fifty
years in this bank. and Francis L.
Tows, who came to Buffalo in the en-
pioy of a railroad, and then went to
Chicago as treasurer of the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific railroad. and ul-
timately returned to New York, where
he recently died worth millions. At this
time Isaac Sherman also lived in AL
bany and later on went to New York
where his daughter, Mrs. Bradley-Mar-
tin, survives him. Almost all of these
men were destined to make money, and
when the western fever was at it's

his beard to grow. after the almost sac

T.T. MAXWELL INTERVIEWS
Latest Phase Of the School Directors
Election Contests.
Maxwell Steps In Between Symmes and
Ames in Their Contest
Proceedings.

T. V. Maxwell, who was candidate for
School Director at the last election, has
filed suit in Intervention in the matter
of the election contests brought by Pei
ham Ames and Frank ]. Symmes, who
were also candidates.
Ames and Symmes brought suit to con-
test the seats of Directors Barrett and
Carew. The idea of Maxwell intervening
is that he had more votes than either
Symmes or Ames according to the figures
announced by the official count, and that
if anybody is entitled to take either
Barrett's or Carew's place he is. The
official count gave Maxwell 1924, or
within 2SS votes of those which elected
the lowest candidate who took seat on
the board.
Maxwell has also filed contest against
this lowest candidate, G. II. Hawley. He
claims that according to a snap tally he
was defrauded out of 200 votes. If these
votes are added to his figures and those
of other candidates lowered he believes he
may establish his right to seat in the
Board of Education. This is why he has
interviewed in the Ames and Symmes con-
test against Carew and Barrett.
Maxwell was around the City Hall till
after 5 o'clock with his attorney, Mat P.
Sullivan, yesterday afternoon and had
just time to prepare his papers, as yester-
day was the last day under the law in
which any election contest proceedings
could be initiated.

THE WATCH SUCCESSFUL.
Burglars Attempt to Loot an Abandoned
Establishment.

John Ross, alias Thomson, was booked
at the Seventeenth-streets station yesterday
afternoon on charge of burglary. He
gave his age as 80 years and his occupation
as hostler.
On Friday Policeman Tracy noticed
three men, one of them being Ross, on the
premises of the Cement Brick Company,
Eighteenth and Folsom streets. The com
pany has suspended operations, but about
$1,000 worth of tools was stored in the
buildings.
Tracy's suspicious were aroused and he
asked Ross what he was doing there, and
he gave an answer which threw Tracy off
his guard. The three jumped into the
wagon and drove away. Tracy reported
the matter to Sergeant Burke, and the Ser
geant placed a watch on the premises.
Shortly after O'Clock yesterday after
noon while Policeman Reardon was on the
watch in citizens clothes Ross and the
other two men drove up to the brick COM
pany's premises in the same wagon.
They started in to pack the tools into the
wagon when Reardon approached them.
AS soon as they saw him they bolted.
Reardon caught Ross and fired two shots
after the other two to intimidate them, but
they continued their fight.
One of them ran into the arms of Police
man Greenan. Greenan took hold of him
''and asked him what was the matter.
"Some men have broken into the brick
company's yard" said the willy burglar,
and was running for an officer"
Greenan released his hold and the burg
lar rapidly put as wide distance as posi-
