TEE RIeHTs OF AUTOMoB1LEs.
Rochester Man Who Paid Damages to
Horse Owner Seeks Information.

Rochester Man Who Paid Damages to n
Horse Owner Seeks Information.
Tho great increase in the number Of auto
mobiles has made the question OF their legal
rights one OF vital interest to oil who use tho
streets case was recently decided in Roch-
ester N. Y. in which the owner Of an automo-
bile. Jonathan b. West. was ordered to pay
damages amounting to $53. 40 to Mason Broth
ers. laundrymsn. because OF injuries to the
complainant horse and delivery wagon
caused by the horse taking fright at the auto
mobile. Mr.. West was not satisfied with the
verdict and appealed to the County Court
Meanwhile he has inserted the following ad-
vertisement in trade paper devoted to auto
mobiles:
subscriber would like all the Information he can
get on damage suits in which the motor vehicle ia
alleged az the offending cause. He has been sued
lost his case appealed and wants ali the assistance
he got from other users of motors who have
been similarly annoyed. The editor will BIO glad to
hear from any one who throw light ON this mat
ter.
Mr.. West thinks 1t will be strange II this APP
peal does not strike responsive chord In the
hearts OF oil true auto Enthusiasts. His own
statement OF tho facts 10 as follows:
Il came near a delivery wagon left standing
at the curb" he says. Il saw the horse prick
up his ears. and turned my vehicle to the op-
posito curb and stopped still. and OF course
then made no noise whatever. After about ten
or fifteen seconds the horse concluded to have
some fun and started toward my vehicle. passed
1t and soon afterward collided with hydrant"
Furthermore. Mr.. West alleges that he had
q perfect right to be whore he was. that he
showed proper caution in stopping fully three
rods from the horse. and that the horse had
run away on two previous occasions. The
bicycle. Mr.. West says. succeeded in establish
ing it's rights only after a struggle and appar-
emily the automob le must do the same.

A Proposition to Bring the Institution to
New York Under COnsIderation.

~ ETopOtitlOh TO inc tubtituVou To
New York Under confederation.
A proposition is under ADJUSTMENT which
contemplates the removal OF st. Stepbens's
College from Annandale. Duchess County.
y. Y. to this city. II u suitable site can be Sc
cured. A committee consisting Of the Rev. DR.
Jose phi Carey. OF Saratoga. aud Messrs. Spencer
Trask. g. Nicholson Kane. Theodore Gibbs and
Charles f. Hoffman of the Board OF Trustees.
has in hand the selection OF a ate here. Tho
college was chartered In 1850 "a a seminar
for the education Of young men for tho Pro-
testant Episcopal ministry. 1t was founded as
u diocesan institution and 10 still respons ibls
to the Diocese OF New York. the Bishop OF New
York. by virtue Of his office. being the visitor.
Although the institution Is intended for such
students as contemplate going into the Epis-
copal ministry IL Is in no sense q school OF
theology. and particular stress was placed by
Its founders on the fact that 1t should present
no rivalry to the General Theological Semin-
airy. but. on the other hand. should be q pre-
paratory school for that institution.
In its last report to the Diocesan Couve n ton.
In 1893. the college shows nom bership. In its
four classes. OF about sixty. Its property In
Annandale, consisting Of fifteen acres OF land
and several college buildings. including a
handsome library building presented BY the
late Rev. Dr. Charles f. Hoffman OF this city,
together with their contents. are said to 10
valued at about 100000. II the purpose OF
those who favor tho removal Of the college here
shall prevail. the property will be aold and the
proceeds will be devoted to the purchase OF
site In this city. 1t has been proposed to place
the college on Cathedral Heights. perhaps on
part OF the ground belonging to the cathedral
OF st. John tho Divine.
The question OF tho future OF st. Stephens.
with relation to its possible removal will como
up for discussion before the next Diocesan
Convention. in the Church Of the Incarnation.
at the end OF this month. 1t Ia almost certain
that the proposition for removal will be bitterly
opposed. The rulpts OF the churches In the
diocese are filled with graduates from st
Stephens. and many OF them are said TO hold
to the belief that their alma mater will be bet
ter OF where she is than In the m Metropolis.

FEDER1L srEEL ORDER MODIFIED.
The Company will Bo Permitted to Fay
Dividends on It's Preferred Stock.

Dividends on It's Preferred Stock.
Judge Edward b. Thomas. OF the United
States Circuit Court. yesterday signed an order
modifying the Injunction In case OF Frederick
+. Marquand W. tho Federal Steel Com pany.
permitting the defendant corporation to pay
dividends on its preferred stock. The order
reads:
In the above action It has been determined
that the statute requires that dividen Is must
be paid during the month OF January succeed
ing the end Of the nrcal year. unless some
specific day or days for that purpose l." Hxrd
III Its charter or bylaws. and In that case. thou
on the days so hxed.' &c. The charter p.n-
vides that the dividend upon tho common
stock shall be declared after the close
OF any fiscal year This provision con-
trolls the power OF the directors to amend
the bylaws fixing specific days for the
declaration OF dividends on the common
stock. But nothing stands in the way OF the
exercise OF such power as regards the preferred
stock. 1t appears that the bylaws OF the Fed
eral Steel Company have been amended legally
so az to provide specific days for the declara-
ton OF dividends upon the preferred stock.
This Is full compliance with the opinion OF
the Court. and should result In a modification
OF the Injunction. so as to permit the payment
OF dividends on the preferred stock"
So far as the common stock Is concerned this
order docs not affect the Injunction. which
stands and no dividend in that class Of stock
can be declared legally until the end OF the
fiscal year. In January There 10 nothing in
the order. however. that would appear to pre-
vent the company from setting aside from out
OF It's surplus any OF the profits to provide for
the payment OF dividends on the common
stock
The directors will hold meeting on Tuesday
Of thil WRAk whon n IA nndaratpod that
dividend on tho preferred stock will be de-
clared

Miss Josenhins HYDE.

News was received yesterday of the
death of Miss Josephine Hyde, which took
place at her home in Washington, D. c.,
Wednesday evening Miss Hyde's Brat
tleboro friends had known of her illness
from pulmonary disease, but they were
not prepared for the news of her death at
this time. She was one of the five chill
dren of Mr.. and Mrs. William Hyde, for
many years residents of Green street. The
death of the father occurred in 1890 and
that of the mother several years previous
to that time. Since the death of her
father Miss Hyde had spent most of her
time in Washington, though every sum-
mer till the present one had seen her back
here at the old homestead. She was
woman Of many accomplishments, notably
in music, in English literature, and in the
modern languages. In her early woman
hood her services were much sought after
as a teacher in these departments. AT
least one winter was spent as a teacher in
Santiago de Cuba. In later life she gave
herself to the care of her parents and OF
other friends who needed her services. AS
friend and companion she was bright,
true and earnest woman, faithful to her
own inner convictions, and her death will
be sincerely mourned by those who knew
her well. A brother of the family died IN
the war for the Union. Two sisters sur
vive, Mrs. Buckingham and Miss Eliza h
Hyde, who has long held a clerkship in The
comptroller's Office, treasury department,
Washington. The body will be brought 70
Brattleboro tomorrow and the funeral Will
be at the Unitarian church Sunday after
noon at 8 o'clock.

THE CEMETERY PROJECT.

It's Success Is Assured, n Large Part of
the Capital stock OF $4,000 Having
Been Subscribed.
The success of the new cemetery pro-
ject is assured, and deed of the Wood
farm south of the village will be taken in
few days. The capital stock of the new
company will be $4,000, large part of
which has already been subscribed. AS
soon as the total amount is secured the
stockholders will perfect an organization
and elect officers. The farm contains a
total of over 100 acres, and it is expected
that plot will be laid out for cemetery
purposes sufficient to meet the demands of
Brattleboro for many years. The rest of
the farm will be used as seems best to the
stockholders, but it is probable that 80 to
so lots fronting on South Main street will
be offered to the public for building pur-
poses. All of the stock will be held by
people living in Brattleboro and vicinity.
The projectors realize that time has come
when a new burial ground is demanded in
Brattleboro, and they propose to meet this
demand by laying out an attractive mod
ern cemetery, in beautiful location, and
to place desirable lots at prices within the
reach Of people of moderate means.
