BUNDY'S FENCE DOWN.
When Mccrea Sold Outthe Old
War Stopped.

While Uncle Sam and the Dons were
having a mild go, a short time ago, TWO
of our peaceful citizens, residing on Acau-
envy street, We're having a wordy war Tor
the ediieation OF the ~neighbors- The
principles were Henry Bundy, known to
fame as Major and Donald McCrea.
This little war is now at an end, being
terminated by Frederick Kopf, a grocer,
who purchased the disputed property. In
order to make the matter clear, it is
necessary to go back a few years to the
time when McCrea bought a house and lot
briskie estate. Major Bundy also
wanted the property, but failed to nego-
tate the purchase before McCrea. AID
joining the house bought by McCrea is
a little shanty in which Bundy runs a
real estate Office.
Bundy, at tina time, failed to let Nc
Crea know that he was also looking for
the property, but induced McCrea to sell
him a small strip of land, about three
feet in width. which ran alongside of
his, property. When this business was
completed, Bundy, for nc apparent
reason, tore down his old picket fence
and erected a high solid board fence di-
restly against McCreas's side windows.
He then ordered McCrea to saw off part
of his roof. the leaves of which over
hung his property. Mr.. Crea did so, and
since then the men have been bitter enc
mics. Their disputes continued for years,
and finally, McCrea, a few weeks ago,
sold the property to Frederick Kopf. This
settled the war. McCrea moved, Bundy
tore down the board fence, and Kopf
moved in. Now all is serene.

William H. Butler, IS years old, of Gin
~cinnati. Ohio, a tramp, was held for ex-
animation by Police Justice Potts, in the
Second Criminal Court, this morning, for
shooting a man in mo Mans Land" as
the strip Of territory between the Hack
ensack and Passaic River is called. Late
last night John Cutherson, who ives on

SUPREME COURT SITS.
Not Embarrassed by the Fire
Clifford Case Down for
Argument.

WASHINGTON, Nov, 7, 139S.-The SUI
preme Court of the United States sat to-
day In the room of the Senate Commit
tee on the District of Columbia. The
committee room is c~ommodious, well fur
nished with tables. chairs. desks and
other office furniture. SO that little diff
Guilty was ~ncountered in Transforming
it into a suitable place for the court. :
The long centre table used by the com
uittee when IN session was pushed to the
rear OF the room, leaving only space be-
hind it for the accommodation of the
Justices. The clerk and the marshal oc-
cupied improvised desks at either end of
the table. and chairs for the attorneys
were placed in front of the Court. There
was no bar. and the Court was on q
physical level with ttendant n at
torneys, the dais which the Court usually
occupies being. OF course, missing.
The ceiling Of the committee room is
rather highly colored for a court room,
and the quarters were so contracted that
it was necessary TO exclude visitors.
These and other circumstances rendered
the scene somewhat incongruous. but the
court proceeded regularly with its work.
ludA1icStiti5 ~ QSiltA diS OFCA lh~
change.
No one would have inferred from the
faces of the Justices or their manner of
proceeding with business that the Court
was sitting outside it's own Chamber for
the first time since 1874. Justices Gray
.and McKenna, who usually occupy seats
to the left of the Chief Justice, were
absent, thus giving the Court a some-
what one-sided appearance.
No written opinions were rendered. but
this was not due to the fire. There would
not nave been any had the explosion not
occurred. The only matter of any inn
portance finally passed upon was a pc
tition for a mandamus upon the Circuit
Court for the Southern District of New
York, filed by s. Fayerweather. The case
Involves q part of the estate of the late
Daniel Fayerweather. who left his prop
erty to a number of educational insti-
buttons. The motion was denied.
After this the Court proceeded with the
hearing Of arguments in cases before 1t.
One his is listed is the appeal OF Clifford.
in which Senator DAILY will make the ar
gument for the murderer. while ProseeG-
tor Erwin win represent the State of New
Jersey
