dered judgment yesterday against tho State
Commissions OF Agriculture In his suit for the
recovery OF a penalty OF 500 against John Won
der Born, q grocer Of l5l Seventh avenue. who

very, effective for removing grease from the
hRnds.
Theodore 7. DIbold testified to having re-
coived q quantity Of II from the grocer for that
purpose, and several OF the latter's employees
sworo to the same effect.
Justice Stiner held there was no evidence that
the defendant had violated any OF the pro.

Capt. waiswrights Excavations Near the
Old BIIlopp House at Tettenyi.Ie.

~ htiIopp mouse AZ Iottcnvtitc.
Capt Il. d. Wainwright. a retired oficsr OF
the Marine Corps, has been making archmloE-
ical explorations In the vicinity OF the old
Billopp House at Tottenville, Staten Island,
and yesterday he reported the excavation Of
two Indian skeletons near tho manor. Last
year a representative of the American Museum
OF Natural History found the skeletons OF nine
Indians on tho ground around the Billopp
House. Capt. Wainwright obtained permission
from c. ii. Leland. the present owner Of tho
property, to make excavations. On Thursday
last he found the remains OF the first Indian Ia O
shell heap two feet under ground. All the bones
above the knee Joint were found at this depth.
The bones were badly broken and the trunk Of
the skeleton showed that the body had been
burned. probably At the stake. A foot further
down the lower part Of the body WAS found.
Nothing was found In tho excavation which
would give the impression that tho skeleton
was that Of an Indian. but the fact that II was
buried In shells IL proof. Capt. W ain says,
~ that was the lLdlan form OF burial.
on saturday he made an excavation ak feet
ground found another indian skeleton. The
remains OF this ono were intact and the skele.
ton measured seven feet four inches from the
crown OF the head to the heels. The body was
In an upright kneeling posture with both hands
pressed against the face. The teeth were closed
on the fingers OF the right hand. In front
OF the skeleton,a and partly supporting IL, was
u round bali OF sand and bones. which was Gov.
cred on one side with shells of land turties.
Nothing else was found. but the fact that this
skeleton. was also packed In shells led Capt
wainwright TO believe that IL was undoubtedly
that OF an Indian. He thinks the skeletons date
from the pre-Coiumbus era, as there was not
the slightest evidence OF familiarity with tho
whites either In the manner of burial or the fact
that no articles or implements used By the
whites were found In the excavations.
Capt. vain wright will exhibit his specimens
before the Natural Science Association Of Staten
Island at the next meeting. He will retain them
until Mr.. Leland claims them to add to the
Museum IN the old manor. The Billopp House
y one of the oldest houses In the State. II IL
built OF stone. with slopinK roof and grated
tury.
