RanIsy an OInspIIIe Liquor Dealer Who Was
Killed by Fall in His Cellar Some Months Ago.
Ne Owed Creditors About $4,000.

The appellate court today in the case
of John II. Walsh, administrators on the
estate of Thomas Hanley, seeded an
important point in regard to the re-
spective claims of creditors and the
family of a beneficiary under a relief
fund in the Catholic Knights of Ameri-
ca. Walsh, as administrator, asked the
court for an opinion as To whether he
should, the amount of the deceased's
benefit having been paid to him, pay
the debts of the deceased or should pay
the entire sum received from the or
ganization to the family of the de-
ceased. There was clause in the
charter of the Catholic Knights as in
troduced at the hearing to the effect
that among other purposes for which
the society was organized was the pay
ment OF $1,000 to the family of n MEM
ber on his decease or to be disposed of
as he might direct.
Stephen A. Cooke said he had been
unable i'm behalf of the creditors TO
find any authority that fully sustained
any claim of the creditors. Counsel
though quoted two cases, one in which
IL was held that if the administrator
ter a contest with an organization the
fund received was held TO belong to
the beneficiaries estate. In the other
case, where a wife was Administrative
on the estate of her husband twas
held the money came to her as quasi
trustee for her husbands chilcren.
Hanley is the Olneyville liquor dealer
who went down stairs in the cellar of
his place of business some months ago
and falling was killed. He owed about
$4,000 and the decree entered in the case
provides that of the fund in the hands
OF the administrators one fourth shall
be paid to Mary A. Hanley, one-fourth
part TO Francis Hanley, one-fourth to
Mary Hanley, one-fourth to Ellen Han
lev. The three latter being minors
their parts shall be paid TO their guard

was counsel for the family of the de-
ceased.

SHOT IN GROIN.
Hayes Fatally Wounded in Dispute
Over Property Bounds.


Topeka, Kan, Nov. 21.-Thomas NJ.
James, a prominent capitalist and poll
tician, yesterday deliberately shot and
fatally wounded VIM. Hayes. a next
door neighbor, and ear trimmer. EN-
poyed In the Santa Fe railroad shops.
Hayes alleged that James had en-
croached on his lot. Hayes went about
rectifying the matter yesterday by
driving a post on line, which he
claimed marked the limits Of his prop
erty, but which James asserted ran in
TO his lot. James ordered Hayes TO de-
sist, and when the latter failed TO COM
ply, fired at him with a shot gum the
charge striking Hayes in the groin.
Hayes was taken To the hospital, where
his wound is pronounced fatal. James
was arrested, but released by a justice
OF the peace, on furnishing a $1,000 bond.

At the meeting of the common coun-
Gil, 10 be held this evening, the draft
OF the new city charter. together with
the report OF the special commission.
will be submitted. 1t is not expected
that any action will be taken on the
proposed charter, for time will oe need
ed to carefully study its provisions.
There is reason to expect that the
committee on railroads will make a re-
mort recommending concurrence i'm the
board of aldermen resolution ordering
the Consolidated road TO remove its
rails from South Water street, Dyer
street, Market square and Canal street.
The committee will also recommend
that the Union Railroad company be
given authority to place rails in the To-
cations now covered by those of the
New York and New Haven road for the
hauling OF freight.
IL is also expected that a bill for an
ordinance drawn for the purpose OF
regulating the peddling of wares and
merchandise in the streets will be in
troduced. Under the bill peddlers will
be required to secure a license from
the city clerk for which a fee will be
charged varying in amount according to
the method of peddling and the goods
sold. 1t is understood that there VIII
bc some opposition To the bill.

A BAD SWITCH,
Myron Claims It Caused Him TO Be
Thrown From a Horse Car.
Leg Was Cut OF and Now He Is Suing
Union Railroad Company For $4,000.

The trial Of case, some of the cir
cumstances OF which have been argued
before this. took place before a jury in
Judge Bosworth's court today. The
plaintiff Joseph Myron. while a pas
senger on a horse car from the city To
Olncyville. was riding on the front plat.
form of the car. and i'm going over n bad
switch, near Olneyvile square. the car
ingglcd a good deal. and he was thrown
under tho car. one OF his legs was run
over and cut Off
There was considerable testimony in
troduced to show that the switch was
I'm a very dangerous condition at the
time the plaintiff was thrown from the
car. and that the defendant com pany
had knowledge Of its condition. The
amount sued for IL $4,000. The defend
ant sets up a release signed by Mr.
Myron. The latter's explanation OF the
receipt was that he signed what he srp-
posed wae receipt for the $500 patti
him. Mr. Myron claims besides the $500
paid him the company agreed TO give
him work for life and to paw him SIS

AN ACCOUNTING ORDERED.
Assignee Of Roukous and hablb Ordered to Furnish
Statement.

There was a hearing before Chief JUS
tice Matteson and Justices Stiness and
Tillinghast i'm the Appellate court this
morning on the bill in equity, filed by
B. Lederer ct al, against Louis X.
Potter, assignee of Elias Roukous, and
Peter Habb, for an accounting. Mr..
Potter's assignors are represented in
the plaintiffs bill as having made over
TO him property i'm a store in this city
worth $4,000, besides collectibie accounts.
That the assignee has refused to give
an account unless the plaintiffs shall
accept certain promissory notes for one
third OF the indebtedness.
The answer of the defendant was tn
the effect that the property that came
into his hands could not have been sold
for more than 5000 but that one George
Roukous. a brother Of one OF the part
ners, was willing TO give $1,000 TO the
creditors, II they accepted notes in two.
four and six months, endirsed by him.
The creditors, who are parties 10 the
present suit, say the estimate OF the
Indebtedness at $4,000. made by the as
sisnee is altogether too large and that
the property received by the assignee
was worth at least $4,000. The court
granted the prayer for an accounting:
Z. Jerome Hahn was attorney Tor ths
complainant. and Dexter X. Potter
counsel for the assignee.
