CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-The friends of the
late Curtis e. Robinson, formerly promi-
nent real estate dealer of this city, and
who died in 1899, leaving an estate worth
81 ,0O0,0 900, were amazed to learn yesterday
that he is charged with having deserted a
wife in Massachusetts,, in ths early sixties,
when he came to Chicago and his three
children are probably surprised to find
their right to inheritance challenged by
Massachusetts, relatives. At the time of
his death Robinson lived with his three
children, Mrs. Martha j. Ruprecht, Curtis
E. Robinson, Jr., and Bessie ID. Robinson.
After his death his daughter, Mrs. Ru-
precht, was made Administrative of his
estate. The Massachusetts, relatives
brother, sister and children of dead
sister-claim that his children here are il
legitimate, and that they are the legal
heirs, Robinson's legal wife having died
childless. They also claim that he never
married his Chicago wife.

BIG FIRE THREATENED.



At seven o'clock this morning the fire de-
partment was called to the new building at
the corner Of Main and Laurel streets, oc-
cupied by George Karliski, a saloonkeeper.
The building is three-story frame structure
which would have fallen an easy victim to
flames had not the frcmen responded
promptly and worked vigorously when they
reached tine scene. The neighborhood is
thickly built up with frame buildings and a
bad place for fire to get hold. Fortunately
the flames did not get much headway and
the iremen succeeded in extinguishiug them
with liberal use of water. The building
was flooded from top to bottom and it will
take about 5000 to repair the damage. The
fire was caused by a misftting and badly
worn elbow of a stove pipe in a room on the
first floor and the pipe is held for inspection
by the borough authorities.
Some of the escapes made from the build
ing were Of a thrilling character which was
uncalled for by the extent of the fire. One
woman partly dressed jumped from the second
story of the building. She escaped injury.
Another similarly attired cmwled out of a
window on the same floor and after holding
on to the sill with one hand for few
moments dropped into the arms of some
men who were in waiting. The proprietor
of the place rushed out of the main entrance
Of the saloon with demiiohn under one arm
and a number of bottles under the other arm,
and shouting Fire !" with all the force his
robust lungs would allow. As Karlisld stood
watching the firemen at work he complained
of many recent misfortunes His wife
deserted him last week.

BURGESS AND POLICE SUED.
A Sequel TO a Raid the Police Made at
a Wedding.
THE MATTER WILL GO TO COURT.
six Men Charge Chief Burgess Burns and
Chief of Police Tosh With False
Arrest and imprisonment Extor-
ton and Misdemeanor in Office.

Chief Burgess Burns and Chief Of Police
Tosh were last night made defendants in six
suits brought against them by six Lithu-
anians whom they arrested and fined about
three weeks ago at wedding on charges Of
creating disturbances of the place. The
prosecutors are George Zdancus, George
Raytkiewicz, John Qucdder Joseph Aku-
laucks, Martin Idaucus and Joseph Rayt-
kiewicz. Each of the men have instituted a
suit against the two officers, charging false
arrest and Imprisonment, extortion and mis-
demeanor in Office.
The warrants were sworn out before JUS
tice Bierstein after the prosecutors had con
suited with Congressman Charles N. Brumm,
whom they have engaged as counsel to push
the cases to trial at court
The specific charge by five of the COM
plainants is that ON thcnightof October goth,
last they attended a wedding ON East Lloyd
street and We're enjoying themselves without
disturbance to the ueighborhood when the
Chief of Police and squad of police, ac-
companied by n squad of boys who marched
down the street yelling and whistling, en-
]
ants, who were taken to the lookup. They
were subsequently released upon paying 81
each. 1t is also alleged that permission to
hold the wedding had been granted by the
Chief Burgess.
! One of the prosecutors, Joseph RaytSie-
wicz, bases his case ON other facts. He says
he went to the Council chamber to pay the
4 a. j IL. y L.
who was one Of the men arrested at the
wedding, but was himself arrested and kept
in the lookup until he paid fine and costs.
He says his arrest was made without cause
or provocation.
When before Justice Bierstein last night
the Chief Burgess was represented by NJ. NJ.
Burke, Esq, and Chief Tosh appeared in
person. The Justice held that there was
sufficient evidence upon which to send the
cases to Pottsville for trial and fixed bail at
| $500 for each officer in each case, and they
furnished 81 200 each before Justice Will
Jams later in the evening.
The accused officers say the suits have no
/ foundation and are in line with the persecu-
tions that have been heaped upon them for
trying to enforce the laws against certain
people and other reasons. The arrests at the
wedding, they say, were made upon a war
rant sworn out by the Chief of Police after
the neighbors had complained of a long con
tinued disturbance, including fights in the
house and yard. As to the arrest at tn,
Council chamber they say Raytkiewicz in
sisted upon getting into the place where tn,
prisoners were before the police could ge
matters in shape to give the accused men
hearing. Raytlliewicz was asked to wal
until that could be done, but become over
bearing, He was ordered from the premise;
and after repeated refusals to comply wit
the order was locked up.

INVESTIGATION CONTINUED.
Municipal Association Agent Adds Con-

CONTRACTS FOR STREET CLEANING
The Committee Will Probably Hold But
Three Sessions Week in the City
Hall Building Much Interest
Manifested

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 13.-The second
days session of the senate investigating
committee was held yesterday at the Hotel
Metropole, with the same members pres
ent as on Monday. The entire session was
taken up with the examination of General
Agent Adds, of the Citizens Municipal
association. The testimony given related
to the contracts for street cleaning, collec-
tion of garbage and street paving, and
also the Noncompliance with specifica-
tions by contractors and non-enforcement
by the authorities. Lawyer Freedley CON
Quoted the examination.
Agent Adds said that the contracts for
street cleaning were generally violated
and referred to the collection of ashes by
saying that the carts, despite the regula-
tions requiring tight lids, had none at all
As to garbage he said the general com
plant was that it was not incinerated as
required by ordinance of councils.
Referring to street paving, he said that
councils ordinance of April, 1893 required
that close fitting blocks should be used.
This, he said, was not done. During 1898,
he said, the property owners paid $40, 900
more than they should have paid, as fitted
instead of irregular blocks should have
been used.
The committee then adjourned until to-
day, when Mr. Adds examination was
renewed.
1t was announced around the lobbies of
the hotel that the committee had deter
mined to have but three sessions a week
on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
1t was also stated that the quarter sessions
room in the city hall had been secured for
future meetings through the good offices
of District Attorney Graham.

A Large New Passenger steamer Goei
Down In the ~Cuyahoga River.
CLEVELAND, O., June S.-The large
new passenger steamer st. Magnus
sank in the Cuyahoga river, just of
the customhouse docks, a 5 o'clock yes.
terday afternoon. The steamer st.
Magnus was partly loaded with pig
iron and had to tie up for coal When
the lines were loosened she listed to
starboard and graduallysank, settling
in thirty feet of water and leaving
only the tops of her masts above wa
ter.
The st. Magnus was about to make
her first trip, her destination being
Hamilton, Ont. No passengers were
on board, and the crew were easily
rescued.
The cause of the accident is said to
have been overlooking, while another
view is that her cargo shifted.
The steamer was owned in Canada.
Her value is unknown. She can prob
ably be raised, but the damage done,
If not total, will reach at least $40, 900.
The sunken boat lies in the river just
south of the Lake Shore bridge, End
completely blocks the river passage OF
the lake vessels.
