inGemdiately upon entering the saloon,
took charge of affairs. He attempted TO
take German away from the officer, and
when the latter objected he was knocked
down by Moore. Detective Fenton testi-
fed that Moore was crazq drunk, and it
was necessary to handcuff him.
Moore and his witnesses testified that
the defendant was the victim of a police
outrage. AS he entered the saloon he
saw the proprietor bleeding, and in a
spirit of sympathy asked him what was
the matter. h proprietor. viii had a
Foley to arerst him, as he was one of the
gang. Foley attempted to arrest him
and the trouble followed. Moore was con-
yicted.

A MIXED UP CASE.
Suit to Recover a CLAIM which Pass
ed Through Many Hands.

Vice Chancellor Pitney devoted his time
this morning to the case of Louis ".
Burckhard against Henry H. Hankins.
The matter is somewhat complicated and
grows out of the attempt of Mrs. Anne E.
Voorhees, to build a house on her property
at No. 70 Clinton street, Hoboken. She
made a contract with Philip A~cuntiu for
the building and Acuntius sublet to Amos
w. Crater, and Crater contracted for $500
Of hardware, which he delivered.
Mrs, Voorhees, met with financial
troubles and Burckhard claims that
Acuntius promised Schneider to put a
mechanics lien upon the premises for
him. A meeting of Mrs. Voorhees, credi-
tors was held and Hankins was made
trustee Of the creditors. Schneider as
signed his claim to Edward Savoy, who
in turn assigned the claim to Burckhard.
In addition to this Burckhard also fur
nished more hardware for the building,
which made the sum owing him 1910, Al.
Hankins answer set UP that he, as as
signee, had 10 notice of Schneider or
Burckhard's debts.
The morning session of the Court was
taken up with the taking of testimony.

NEITHER MONEY NOR JOB,

A jury in the General Sessions Court,
yesterday afternoon, was unable to agree
as to whether Amelia Woftask swindled
Joseph Ogowski out of SIS or not. All
the testimony in the case was taken
through an interpreter. Ogowski lives at
No. 1S4 Eleventh street, in the Polish
quarter. He testified that a year ago he
was out of employment and Mrs. Woitask
told him that she could get a job for
him. She wanted a dollar to go to New
York to see the foreman of a shop. The
foreman's name was Adam Lewitzki.
Ogowski gave her a quarter On Sep
TENDER Is Ogowski was told to bring all
the money he had to Mrs. Woitask's hus-
bands saloon, where the foreman would
meet him and complete arrangements
for the job. Ogowski brought $l9 and
laid it on the table. A a supposed
to be the foreman, was there, n
Ogowski was not certain whether he or
the defendant got the money. Ogowski
never got the money back nor the job
either. A great deal of conflicting tes-
timcny was. given, SO much in fact that

RESERVOIRS THE TROUBLE.
Specifications VIII BE Amended to
Avoid Trouble With Another State.

The Street and Water Commissioner
are not satisfied with the plans and speci-
fications for a new water supply recently
submitted to them by the experts, Messrs.

There are several features about the
plans which the Commissioners think are
unwise. The chief one is the question of
reservoirs.
In the plans now before the Board it is
understood that some of the reservoirs
ire located outside of the State line, and
his the Board thinks is a grave mistake,
because it would mean possible litigation
and difficulties with the authorities Of
hat foreign State. For this reason, n
there are some minor details, the speci-
ications have been returned to the ex-
perts, who will make some changes and
