Residents or P~iscatawaytown Are Looking for
Something shorter.
NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., Jan. 1.-the people
of Piscatawaytown are agitating a change Of
name for that village. Thus far the trolley cars,
which run there from this city, have not been
marked. The reason for this Is that the villagers
think the name Piscatawaytown spread out on
the cars would DO unsightly. and they have asked
Superintendent Radel Of the Brunswick Trac-
ton Company to keep the name off until the
matter Of finding q moro suitable one can DO
decided.
In the discussion which has arisen over tho
question many Piscatawaytown people have ex-
pressed themselves Of the opinion that so long
n name is too great for q small village to carry
and yet be prosperous. The name was original
ly Piscataqua, and o return to 1t has been sug.
gested. Women of the place think that the
name Cambridge would be much moro suitable.
They argue that the confusion which has been
caused by the name Piscatawaytown Is of itself
sufficient reason for the change.
In Its carly days the village was a part of
Piscataway township. Later this township,
which once included nearly all of that part OF
Middlesex county north OF the Raritan River,
was divided. ana the township of Raritan was
formed. Then Piscatawaytown found itself in
the new township, several miles away from the
confines Of Piscataway township. 1t took the
villagers a longtime to get used TO this new Or
dor OF things, ano the matter still causes out
niders q great deal Of confusion.

lector's Omce mt 81. AIbnns.


ST. ALBANs, Vt, Jan. 11.-Hanging in tho
office of Capt. George w. Burleson, Collector
in charge of this port, are three sealskin caps
and one sealskin sack. They represent a
money value of about $3.50. All were pur-
chased in the United.States.. and all were seized
from United States citizens under the new law
prohibiting importation Of sealskins. The regu-
lations of the Treasury Department governing
tho enforcement of the new law reached this
port on last Friday.
The first seizure was made on Saturday night
from a passenger on a Central Vermont road
train on the way from Montreal to Worcester,
Mass. 1t was a sealskin sack. valued at 5000,
the property Of Miss Lemina Rocheleau OF
Worcester. Although she strongly protested to
Inspector Lebeau that she had not heard of
the new law and that the sack was bought in the
United States, the inspector had no alternative
and seized the garment. Tho young woman
continued her journey clad in an overcoat
loaned by a fellow passenger. The caps that
hang in the Custom House are the property of
Arthue Anctil OF Burlington, Vt, Mrs. j. f..
Gravalle OF Barre, VT, and Arthur billiard of
163 Rush street, Chicago. Mr.. billiards cap
was seized on Monday night. IL was travel
Grand Trunk road, and passed through Canada
with his baggage In bond. He borrowed a hat
from a Customs officer.
Although the law says that seized sealskins
not exempt must be destroyed. Collector Burlo-
son Is waiting In hopes that some modification
of the law will ennblc him to restore tho seized
property to the owners.

Mrs. Neur Has Had 80. 500 TO Her Credit in .
Savings Rank for Seventeen Years.
Seventeen years ago Mrs. Neuf. mother Of
John Neuf of Long Island City. was declared
insane. and she has since been confined in
various aeylums. 1t was believed then that
she had saved some money, but the family
could find no trace of it. Among her effects
was an old wardrobe.
Last week while Neuf was rummaging through
the wardrobe he found under a board in one cor
ner an old bank book. 1t showed that Mrs. Neuf
had on deposit In the Bowery Savings Bank
80. 500, which has remained untouched for sew
enteen years. Neuf Immediately applied to JUS
tice Wilmot NJ. Smith for power to take charge
Of the property. Justice Smith appointed Thomas
G. Kadieu OF Long Island City to hear the appli-
cation on Saturday.
The original 80. 500 has been drawing 4 per
cent. interest. which Is computed semi. annually.
The interest thus added to the principal every
account not far from $1,000.

Discovered o New Metal.
As q usual thing Thomas A. Edison doesn't
take the trouble to don, ewsont eli fakes. PIT
lately he has been getting weary Of the many
falso articles published. and. when n reporter for
The SUN questioned him at his laboratory in
West Orange, n. j.. as to the truth of an article
published In the Ne,U York Herald yesterday.
he expressed his wrath in the forcible language
which he employs when angry all tho way
through.
The Herald article related with great detail
that Mr.. Edison had accidentally discovered q
new metal which gave cast iron extraordinary
strength and toughness. According to the
Herald story, Mr.. Edison claimed that his dis
covery would revolutioniZe the iron business
and do away with the necessity of making malle-
able iron.
There arc some newspapers said Mr.. Ed.
son. " that. can't get anything straight. This
story is absurd. l never said anything like
this, and what Is more l don't intend to. The

PARIS, Jan. 11.-The proceedings to-day Of
tho court-martial in the case of Count Eater
hazy, who was charged with having boon i'm
plicated in the betrayal OF French military
secrets and OF having written letters no.
~flccting upon the French Army, were con-
ductod in secret. Consequently nothing
was known until IL was announced this evening
that Count Esterhnzy had been acquitted by tho
unanimous vote of the members OF tho court.
After the verdict had been announced the Off.
GERS comprising the court shook hands with the
Count and congratulated him upon having dis.
proved the charges. The crowd cheered vche-
mently, and cried Long 1.-Two Esterhazy. Long
live the army" and Down with the Jews
Tho verdict is almost universally approved.
Some excitement has been caused by the arrest
OF Nine. Jouffroy d'Abbans and a man named
vaulzerre, her alleged accomplice. on tho charge
of attempting to blackmail a military officer. A
section Of the press mistakenly identified Nine.
Jouffroy d'Abbans as Mme. de Boau-
mont, tho mysterious yelled lady who
is said to have furnished Count Ester.

capt. Dreytus, VINO Is now serving q life SEN
tence for betraying secrets of the national do.

crime Count Esterhazy was himself &C.
cused. The woman under arrest is really
q successful adventures. She is tho
divorced wife of a marquis, and is reputed to
have been the mistress Of the late King Alfonso
OF Spain. She cleverly used tho popular belief
that she was Count Esterhazy's "vciled lady"
to gain notoriety.
VIENNA, Jan. ia despatch from Paris 10
tho Neues Wiener Journal asserts positively
that Dreyfus was a paid spy in the Russian
service. and that his acts of espionage occurred
before the conclusion of tho alliance between
France and Russia.
LONDON. Jan. 11.-The correspondent of the
Daily Mail at Cologne, Germany. resuscitates,
with purported details, the assertion that
the bordereau upon which Dreytus was
convicted was stolen from the Rus
sian, not the German. Embassy in Paris.
Hence the secrecy that marked tho court.
martial which found Dreyfus guilty. the Gov
eminent not daring 10 offend Russia by further
publicity. The correspondent asserts that
Dreyfus will never be released as long as the
Russo. French alliance continues. He recalls
that the German official press moro than once
denied that Germany had any connection with
the Dreyfus affair.
