Mann Pleads Guilty 10 HettinE . Hire which
aost KIreran LlddeI his LIFE


Lewis Mann. a middie-aged German. was tried
In the General Sessions Court in jersey City
yesterday for arson. After the :estinony had
all been taken and the defendant had denied bis
guilt under oath, Assistant Prosecutor Soonan
and Lawyer Alexander Simpson, for the de-
fence, agreed TO submit the case without argu-
ment. Judge Hudspeth WAS about to charge the
Jury when Mann said something In a whisper TO
his counsel.
May It please the Court" said Mr.. Simpson,
my client informs me that be desires TO with
draw his plea OF not guilty and plead guilty. l
advised him to plead guilty before the trial
began, but he refused"
Judge Hudspeth accepted the plea and d.
rected the jury TO End a verdict Of guilty. They
did 50 without leaving the box, and the prisoner
was remanded for sentence.
Mann and his two sons. Henry and Joseph. ~
and IL years old respectively. occupied rooms
on the second floor OF a tenernent house at -
Canal street. On the night Of Jan. 25 Mann
told his sons after supper that he was going TO
make some money. After directing them To
stand near the door and be prepared to run. he
took a ramrod and SMASHED a lighted lamp
which was standing on the mantel. The lamp
fell on the stove. which was red-hot. and the
blazing oil set Ere to a box full of kindling wood
When the fire was well under way Mann
wi hNo "so "
and left them in charge Of the baker.
He instructed them to say that they were
downtown with him buying clothes when the
fire occurred. Mann returned to the rre and
created a scene. He pretended to be afraid that
his children were in the building and would he
burned TO death. He begged Police Captain Cox
to let him go TO their rescue, and then disap-
peared. 1t was thought that he had elHded the
police and gone into the burning building. Al
Ter the fire had been extinguished Sergeant
Hopkins heard that Mann was in a saloon drink
ing and boasting that he had made $500 by the
fre. as his furniture was insured for that
amount.
Mann was arrested and said that the lamp had
exploded and caused the fire: He adhered TO that
statement until his sons told the truth TO Chief
Of Police Murphy. Then Mann confessed. He
said he set the FIRE because he was out Of work
and needed money. He signed a written state
ment to that effect. Nevertheless he insisted on
standing trial. He swore on the witness stand
that when he made the confession he must have
been out OF his mind.
II was at this fire that Fireman Thomas J.
LiddeIl met with an accident which cost him his
life. A ladder on which he and John Boland-
another fireman. were standing slipped on the
ice which incrusted the caves of the building.
and fell to the ground. taking the two men with
it. Liddell's spine was fractured and he died in
the City Hospital four days later.

Health Boards President Shows How II BE-
came Necessary.
President Wilson OF the Board of Health made
public yesterday a letter no sent on Tuesday
night to Alexander z. Orr, President of the
Society for the Reformation of Juvenile De-
linquents. The letter was in reply to one sent
by Mr.. Orr to Mr.. Wilson on Saturday.
The letter reviews the history OF the trouble
between the Board Of Managers OF the House of
Refuge and the Board OF Health from the be-
ginning. 1t appears. from the letter. that a year
ago a careful inspection of the institution and
its sanitary condition was made by the Board OF
Health, resulting in an order to the Board OF
Managers to make extensive changes in the
sanitary, appurtenances. Upon a reinspec-
was found that no attention had been
paid to this order. A letter was addressed to Mr..
Orr By the Secretary of the Beard Of Health. set
swer that the Board OF Managers Of the institu.
tion did not have the funds to make the changes
Then DR.. Richard H. Derby. consulting ophthal-
mologtst to the Board of Health, visited the in
all cases of contagious eye diseases among the
inmates. A copy Of this report was sent to the
superintendent OF the institution. Elisha NJ.

that no attention was paid by the superintendent

ton, showing that its sanitary condition was
wretched. The letter then reads:
"Other Health Board notices were productive
Of no better results, and on April o last George
B. Fowler, N: D.. COMMISSIONER of Health, and
Charles +. Roberts. II. d., Sanitary Superin-
tendent, visited Randall's Island and made a
thorough examination of the conditions existing
the premises in regard TO plumbing. drainage,
water closets. &c, was faulty; that cases OF con
tagious diseases of the eye and skin were not
isolated, rendering those coming in contact with
them liable to be affected with tine same; that
proper and sufficient nurses were not provided
care and attention as to their personal health
and cleanliness"
The Board Of Health consequently passed the
quarantine resolutions. at which tho Board Of
Managers took umbrsge.
In conclusion, President Wilson says that the
Board OF Health does not think II necessary to
inspect the House OF Refuge. rs this has already
been done by It's inspectors. but he offers to meet
the managers, with his colleagues, for consulta-
ton at the Health Board offices.

"WEDNESDAY. April 81.

VA 50
Higher prices for American securities in Lon
don. which. By the way. were no, generally eI-
pected By local traders, gave the stock market
an upward impetus at the opening. The trepi-
dation Of the short interest was complete when
IL discovered that foreign arbitrage houses were
moderate buyers The offerings were 50
light that the purchases referred TO left
little material in sight available 20 cover short
sales made on the war scare. The anxiety 20
close short contracts was further stimulated By
indications that one Of the more important pro-
fessional interests has. temporarily at least
switched TO the long side of the market The
result was a nearly continuous rise. caused
chiefly BY the covering OF shorts. There
was no Improvement in the volume of
legitimate business, and even speculative
operations were upon a smaller scale
than yesterday. The bond market. though
strong. was lifeless. There was practically no
news affecting values. The Street, however.
endeavored 10 attach importance 10 the reported
successes Of the Turkish troops, on the theory
that they foreshsdow q speedy termination Of
the war. The advance in the coal stocks was
accompanied By rumors, which lack oonfrma-
ton. that the anthracite companies have agreed
70 establish q Joint selling agency.
Regarding Wall street views and conjectures
as TO the importance and probable outcome Of
the G~reco-Turkish war IL may be noted that
they have all along been at variance with those
entertained in the principal financial centres Of
Europe. The most trustworthy information 90
tainable from abroad is that AL OF the important
financial interests there have known all along
that a collision between Greece and Turkey was
inevitable and they have also known Just
how far the powers would permit the
contestants TO 30. This accounts for the oompar-
alive eq~uanimity Of the European security mar
kets since the situation in the Levsnt became
acute. Wall street not being possessed OF this
information. sold stocks freely on the formal
declaration OF war and is now surprised al the
.promptness with which prices have rallied and
also that foreign operators show a disposition
TO trade on the long side of our market. The
noteworthy dealings to-day were in Jersey
Central. at a net advance OF ga points:
Delaware and Hudson, al an advance of ola
points; Sugar Refining. ST. Paul. C. B. and
Quincy, Louisville and Nashville. Reading. New
York Central, and United States Leather pre-
ferred- The last was again a marked exception
to the almost general tendency, closing more
than a point lower than yesterday. The only
other noteworthy net decline occurred in Illinois
Steel. In both of these stocks there appeared
TO be liquidation. The closing was strong at
about the best prices for the majority Of the list

THE NEW RAILS IN 1osTH STREET.
To Provide for Travel 10 Grants Tomb-Ns In
I~nnctien violated by the TraetIon Cempanz.

Junction Violated by the Traction Company.
President vreeland Of the Metropolitan Street
Railway Company said yesterday afternoon that
there was no truth In the statement that the
building Of a connection at 1o6th street and
Amsterdam avenue was In violation Of an in
junction. The right to make the connection was
never the subject of discussion in the courts or
elsewhere.
The reason IL was not made nine months ago,
when the line through lO6th street was built to
connect the Ninth avenue road with the Column
bus avenue line. was because he did not at that
time have on hand a rail that would make the
surface Of the roadway there agreeable TO the
bicyclists.
Such a rail he laid down last night. in order
that the crowds from the lower end OF the city
going 10 Grants tomb might have the benefit Of
quick transit over the Columbus avenue cable
