WANTS HIS WIPH's DOT.
Suit Against h Executors of the
Late Michael

In the Circuit Court yesterday after
noon Justice Lippincott listened to tine
evidence in a suit brought by Louis
Rooster against Franz Matthiesson, ex-
ecutor of the estate of the late Michael
Lienau, to compel Mr.. Matthiesson to
pay him $12. 600. All the parties in the
suit are well known in this city.
Mr.. Rooster was born in Holstein, Ger
many. but afterwards became a citizen
of France. In 1854 he married the
daughter of Michael Lienau. Mr.. Lienau
was superintendent of Matthiesson's SUI
gar house in this city, and was quite
wealthy. He gave his daughter a large
sum of money when she became Mrs.
Koester, investing it himself for her
benefit.
Mrs. Rooster died in 1871 and Mr..
Lienau died about two years ago. The
money was never actually paid over to
Mrs. Rooster. and, upon Mr.. Lienau's
death Rooster applied to Mr.. Franz
administrator of Mr.. Lienau's estate,
for the money. He refused to pay it
over on the ground that as it was a gift
to his daughter and had not been paid
over during her life, 1T could not be
collected from the estate. Mr.. Kroes-
ter then brought suit to recover.
Among the witnesses yesterday was
Mr.. Jules Colin, a French lawyer, who
testified as to the French law on dowries.
The lawyers in the case are ex-Judge
Hoffman and ex-Judge Rankin for Mr..
Rooster, and Mr.. Charles L. Corbin and
ex-senator W.D. Edwards for Mr..
Matthiesson. The case will be resumed
on Friday

WANT FORESTS PROTECTED
Legislature to BE Asked to Assist In
Preventing Fires.
Snccfai to the JerscD City Negs.


TRENTON. Oct. 10. 1s95.-Eforts will
probably be made when the next Legis-
lature meets to secure the passage of
laws that will. in some measure. pre-
vent the disastrous and costly forest
fires that have spread such devastation
over South Jersey. Interest in the mat
ter is not confined to the owners OF wood
land. but citizens generally have taken
UP the question. A proposition to have.
a state warden appointed over the wood
lands. and strict regulations made in re-
gard to burning brush and klndling fires
in the forests. In past years some Wild
stories of terrible forest b1azes have been
sent out from South Jersey, but this fall
the half has not been told.
Something unheard of until this year
has been the spread of the flames into
the swamps, where they would shoulder
for weeks and suddenly break out
afresh. Such a condition has been rem
dered possible only by the long drought.
Streams have dried up. and wamps
have become beds of dry peat, like great
masses Of finder. Roots Of trees have
been barred. and the fires ave eaten
their way underground. battling the old
and experienced fighters of woods fires.
This has also resulted in great destruc-
ton Of game.

s THE obstructive element in New York
seems to nave method in its madness.
The New York Central Railroad IS the
only trunk line at present having direct
ingress to New York. and it is not to be
wondered at that it has organized a
awest side Citizens Association" to
stir up trouble for the great HUDSON
River Bridge project. The pretext that
the crossing of the bridge at Sixty-ninth
street would be a detriment to River
side Drive. which ends at Seventy
second street, is simply farcical. the
purpose of the opposition is to drive the
bridge abutment so far down town that
the roadbed cannot be brought to grade
at Forty-second street. where the de-
signers propose to locate their terminus
for the railroads using it.
