VICTORY FOR MRS. ANDREWS.
Her Husband Must Pay Her Counsel
a Fee OF


Vice-Chancellor Stevens In Chancery
Chambers, this city, this afternoon, grant
ed Lawyer Willard Fisk, counsel for
Jerome D. Andrews, 800 counsel fees for
representing Mrs. Andrews in a suit
which she has brought against her hus-
band, William d. Andrews, for alimony.
The case will probably be tried in a few
days. Andrews is proprietor of a mems
furnishing goods store at No. so and g.
Nassau street, New York.
The suit is based on charges of studied
neglect. The Andrews were married in
April, 1896. Andrews was a widower with
two boys, one nine years old and the
other six. He was 50 years old, and his
bride was only 25. Upon their marriage
Mr.. and Mrs. Andrews went to live in
the house No. "a Bentley avenue, where
the husbands mother also lived. After
several months of married life, Mrs. An
drews alleges her husband began to ne
glect her and spent all his time with other
members of his household. including mis-
mother. In the summer of 1886 he took a
vacation, but left his wife home. In the
summer of 1897 when a daughter was born
to her Mrs. Andrews was sent to Liberty,
N. Y, for several weeks.
During that time her husband visited
her but once. When she returned home
her husband continually ignored her. In
October last she learned from her step
children that the family was going to
move to Brooklyn. Her husband told her
nothing about it. The furniture was TAX
Ell in a van, and she went too. 1t was to
Richmond Hill, L. l., and not Brooklyn,
that the family went.
Mrs. Andrews had been there a week
when a constable called upon in the pres
ence of her husband, and told her that the
lease of the house was in the name of the
elder Mrs. Andrews, who desired her to
vaeate. She left and has since been liv-
ing with her parents in Jersey City. Mrs.
Andrews asks the Court to award her the
custody of her child, who is now with
her, and compel her husband to provide
for the supper her and the little one.
She claims that her husband is not only
in receipt of a large income, but that he
owns unencumbered the Bentley avenue

1 NEW YORK, Jan. 81, 1S9S.-As the Red
Cross Line steamer Portia, Captain Far

and Halifax, N. S., was making her way
down East River through the thick snow
storm about eight o'clock this morning

Roosevelt ferry, when about midstream,
crossing from New York to Williamsburg.
The Nevada was struck on the port side

shaft, rendering her engines useless, be-
sides doing other considerable damage.

passengers and a number of teams, and
some injury was lone among them. The
tug H. B. Moore, JT., right after the ac-

SNOW RAISED TEMPERATURE
Little Embarrassment to Trolleys
as Yst-An East River
Crash.

The scene this morning about the yari-
Gus ferries was about as. wintry as one
| can well imagine. The storm, however,
but slightly impeded passenger and truck
traffic. The boats ran pretty well on
! Schedule time. In but few instances were
| they were more than a few minutes late.
There was one blockade of cars that
lasted twenty minutes at Grand and Grove
streets, and this was caused by the break
| ing of a pole Of a Morgan Express Com
| pany's truck, laden with pipe. The pole
was broken in an effort on the part of
| the driver to turn off from the car tracks
to get out of the way CT an approaching
| car. Several Bayonne and Newark cars
We're thus stalled to the annoyance of
passengers. The blockade occurred after
| the rush hours.
The heavy fall of snow over the river
was like a fog, but did not interfere with
| the movements of boats so much as the
ice foes, which, since Saturday, have
been blown by an east wind to this side
| of the river, filing up the ferry slips. AT
| times some of the boats found it difficult
to approach nearer than a foot or two
| of the ferry bridges on account of the
| packed ice, and foot and horse bridges
| had to be used to land passengers and
truck traffic. This happened quite fire.
ouently at both the Pennsylvania and Pa
vonia ferries.
Saturday night and yesterday small
craft were frozen in at their moorlngs.
| The huge chunks of ice in the foes along
| the east side of the river extending pretty
| well out to the middle of the stream, beat
| and thumped against the paddle wheels OF
the side-wheel boats. much to the alarm
| of timid passengers.
At eight o'clock yesterday morning, the
| Thermometer registered 8 degrees above
zero, and a biting west wind that foze the
| ear tips of pedestrians was blowing nearly
all day. Ut moderated somewhat during
the afternoon, and the mercury crept up
to the nineteenth notch above zero
Snow commenced to fall at three o'clock
this morning, and has steadily continued
| since. The thermometer registered ~ de-
| grees above zero. The ferry officials eS-
pecially are hoping that the weather VIII
| continue to moderate, as a few days con-
t~inuance of Saturday nights cold wave
| would seriously interfere with ~navlgatlon;
The slips are filled with broken ice ana
| slush. and this easily becomes compact
| and freezes sooner than constantly NOV
ing water.
The storm has not as yet interfered to
any extent with the moving OF trans. Al
| the dispatchers Office in the Pennsylvania
| depot at noon it was tnat
| trains were running in on schedule tlme,
and that the storm was not SO severe IN
| the west as that in the east.
BY eleven o'clock three inches of snow
covered the ground, and $500 men Were
| put to work in New York in addition to
the street cleaning force, to remove 1T.
It is estimated that even II the snow stops
before tonight that this work will cost
| hatween SIG. 600 and SIG, 000.

PAS REVENGE
May Cause
a Rebellion
in His Family.

His eleven-year-old daughter was
practicing the piano in the parlor. His
nine-year-old son was practicing the
violin in the back room upstairs. His
eight-year-old daughter was practic-
ing the Violin in the front room up
stairs. He himself sat twiddling his
thumbs in the sitting room. He didn't
look as mean as his remarks to the
friend who happened in upon him
showed him to be.
Love music, don't yCu?" said the
friend.
Not much l don't" replied the faith
er OF the family.
Huh? What's your idea, then, in
starting alIthree OF the kids off in mu-
sic so early in the gamer"

family.
Revenge? What the dickens are
you talking about?'

body for it, and that's what I'm doing
right now.
You see, when I was a kid there
wasn't any more music in me than
there is in boot owl. | couldn't even
whistle through my teeth. l couldn't
tell the difference between a gospel
hymn an the Sailors Hornpipe, and
I'm not much better down to the pres
ent moment CT speaking. But my
father, who had fiddle for thirty
years without ever being able to saw
three tunes on it, was bound that l
should be violinist, and my mother,
who knew her two seminary commence
ment pieces by heart, was equally
bound that l should be a pianist. l was
the first kid IN the bunch, you see, and
SO I got it in the neck.
My father started me at the violin
and my mother started me On the pi-
ano. Between 'em l was about as mis-
