Worth $4,000, 900.

New York, Dec. 5.-William B. Trum-
bull and William Elford Gould were
committed to the Tombs to-day in de-
fault Of bail for examination Tuesday
on charge of attempting to extort ST.

lillian millionaire. Teixeira and his
mother live in a palatial home in this
city, and he is said to be worth $50,000,-
900. He is first cousin or the late Dom
Pedro and he has won distinction as a
painter. Trumbull threatened that un-
less he paid the sum demanded his
"dormitory'' would be published, news
paper having offered $500 for the
story.
Teixeira turned the matter over to a
detective who, posing as an agent of the
millionaire, conducted negotiations
with Trumbull. Gould, according to
the detective, told him he was an init
mate friend CT the Spanish consul gen
eral, with whom he had dined on every
Sunday, and that the consul-general in
conversation told him of a scandal in
Brazil involving Teixeira and of an in
dictment against the millionaire. This

Board of Finance Finished Cutting Satur-
day Night-Some Recommendations.
The board of finance finished scalping
the estimates Saturday night and a re-
port. of their work will probably be
made to the board of aldermen tonight.
Among the recommendations which
the board will make is one that only
$4,000 be spent for street hardening
and does not specify the streets to
be hardened. The police department
asked for $214, 900, but the board of f.
nance has voted to recommend that
only $4,000 shall be used. If this rec
ommendation is adopted by the court of
common council the police department
will be obliged to lay off men next
year as was done this year.
A department of public works esti-
mate of 5000 salary for a sprinkling in
spector was cut out. The report rec
ommends that $4,000 be allowed the fire
department to pay for a chemical en-
gine in the new engine houses No. 10
and No. 12.
A 81 mill tax will be recommended.
There promises to be an interesting
time in the court of common council
when the finance boards report is sub
mitted.

o'clock this morning. He was met at
the station by Secretary Bliss and Sec
retary Alger, and driven to the white
house The president had received two
kilograms en- route to Washington from
Canton reporting the condition Of his
mother, but he was anxious for later
news, so Secretary Porter stopped at
the telegraph office on the way from the
station to inquire for any dispatches
that might be waiting. There was no
news, however, so the party proceeded
to the white house, where breakfast
was had.
In the middle of the forenoon mes
sage was received from Abner McKin-
ley at Canton saying that the presi-
dents mother was resting in about the
same condition as when he left Canton,
sleeping and unconscious. She might

days longer, but was liable to die at any
moment.

the return trip to Canton tomorrow
evening. The president, Mrs. Mckinley
and a party of half dozen close
friends and relatives will leave Wash
ington at 7:20 o'clock, occupying spe-

JOSEPH HARDY NEEsIMA.
Row. DR.. Twitchells Second Lecture on
Modern Heroes.

Modern Heroes.
AT the Dwight Place church last even
ing the pastor, Rev. DR.. J. e. Twitchell
delivered his second of series Of lee
lures on Modern Heroes. His subject
was Joseph Hardy Neesima," educator
and preacher, and the man who did
more than any one else to enlist the
sympathy of the United States for the
spiritual and moral elevation of the
Japanese. There was a large attend
ance and the lecturer held the closest
attention of his auditors throughout
He led up to his subject proper by CIV
ing a brief sketch Of the chronological
records Of Japan and the other four is
lands of the group. He did not, how
ever, consider the records trustworthy.
The soil, climate and the conditions Of
the primitive people were also spoken
of.
With difficulty Neesima secured pas
sage on a ship and went to China. On
his arrival there he exchanged sword
which he had received from the prince
at the time of his conservation for a
New Testament This he studied and
became interested in. He sailed on an
other ship for America and landed In
Boston, where he met Joseph Hardy, a
wealthy influential merchant, by whom
he was adopted. Neesima told OF his
desire to get an education and become
a minister. Mr. Hardy sent him to An
dover, where he took a two years pre-
paratory course, at the conclusion of
which he entered Amherst, from which
institution he graduated with honors.
While attending Amherst he lived with
the family Of President Seelye. After
graduation he travelled some in the
United States, visited among other
places New Haven and attended COM
mencement exercises at Yale. In speak
| ing of the same Neesima said there was
not enough religion in 1T.
| After this he began two years grad
uate course at Andover, where he devot-
ed himself to the study of theology. At
this time the Japenese embassy visited
America, and, being In need of an inter-
prefer, Neesinna was sent for and ac-
cepted the position. When they left this
| country he accompanied them to Eu-
rope and remained there fifteen months.
He then returned to this country to pur-
sue his studies.
| In 1874 he was sent by the American
Board Of Foreign Missions to Japan to
carry on their work Of education and re-
ligion. Neesima returned to America IN
1885 and solicited funds to carry on the
work Shortly after his return to Japan
his health began to fail and in 1889 he
died. He was buried with more honor
than any common citizen ever had.

Several men were seen drinking at the
back door Of the saloon. When Cav
anaugh saw the officers coming into his
place he bolted, leaving the door Of the
saloon wide open. He has escaped pen

secured concerning yesterdays violation
to convict him. He and King will prob
ably be arrested to-day.
