PBRRIuHS WIN At LAST
Chancellor MeGill Sets Aside
the Order Judging Them to
Be in Contempt.
Special 10 the Jerseu cftu Ns,rs.

TRENTON, June g., s96.-Chancellor
McGin today filed an opinion in the
Slack-Perrine case. It's effect will be to
reopen the whole litigation. The decis-
ion of the washington Appellate Court
promulgated a few days since, held that
the action of the New Jersey Court
must be sustained. Here the custody of
the children has been awarded to the
mother. During the pendency of the
Washington proceedings counsel for the
Perrnes made q motion before Chancellor
McGin to set aside DEGREES in Court of
Chancery as improvidertly granted. Tt
is upon this motion that today's opin-
ion was filed. The Chancellor reverses
Vice Chancellor Birds decision as ir-
regular and his order transferring the
custody of the children to their mother
as illegal The effect Of the decision,
furthermore, is to erase the decree pre-
viously made holding Colonel and Mrs.
Perrine guilty of contempt of court.
Since the entering of the latter decree
the Perrines have been in Washington
and their return to Trenton is now ex-
pected to begin a new fight for the pos
session of the Slack children.

making his rounds in Mulberry street
near Spring street. this morning He
was driving past No. 221 Mulberry street,
two old-fashioned dwelling houses which
are being turned into stores, when he
felt a sharp sting on his left MP. On
making an examination he found that
he had been shot and that the bullet
had lodged in the fieshy part of his hip.
He went to the Mulberry street police
station. which is only half block dis
tant from where he was shot, and from
there he was removed to st. Vincent's s
Hospital to have the bullet extracted
Sullivan said .he heard no report, but
only felt the pain when the bullet struck
HIM. Captain Pickett sent Detective
Sloane out to make an investigation,
but nothing could be learned as to who
fired the shot. Several workmen were
engaged dismantling the houses at Nos.
319 and 231 Mulberry street at the time
of the shooting, but they all denied any
knowledge of it. The police think, how
ever, that one OF the workmen found an
old pistol and not knowing it was loaded
snapped it while standing at the win
dow and shot Sullivan as he was pass
