ANOTHER STEWART CLAIMANT.

Application made yesterday before Justice
Garretson. in Long Island City. TO strike from the
June calendar the Of Alexander Stewart
against the Garden City Improvement Company.
The plaintiff claims to be nephew OF the late A.
T. Stewart. The application was made with view
OF having Justice Garretson grant an order to APP
point d commission to go TO Belfast. Ireland to
take testimony tending TO prove that the plaintiff
was al rightfu heir OF Alexander Turney Stewart
Mr. Holmes of Russell & Holmes. counsel for
the Stewart estate. opposed the application.
Justice Garretson heard argument on both sides.
Counsel for the plaintiff claimed that A. 7. Stewart
did not leave any will and no citations
issued.
Mr. Russell said that It not uncommon
thing for persons to appear now and then and
claim TO be heirs 10 the Stewart estate. He cited
one case which came up before Judge Lacombe In
New-York, where the petitioner claimed that there
was no Stewart will. Mr.. Russell said that he
nroyed this claim 10 be ridiculous by producing In
court the will Of Mr.. Stewart, which was made In
1876.
Justice Garretson took the papers and adjourned
the matter until June IL.

The Newest Yachting Freak.

New YORK, July Is, 1899. A peculiar
craft has just been launched for Hugh
l.. Willoughby. She is 40 feet over all, y
feet on the waterline, and 2 feet inches
wide. She draws ) inches, and has fin
2 feet inches. She has a lateen sail on a
mast rs feet tall with foot yard and
% foot boom. There are two iron rud-
ders, one at either end, set back from the
ends 10 feet.
The sail is hung to the mast at the
centre of the yard SO that it has an
easy play, and may be turned without the
least difficulty. The PROV is never obliged
to come about, as when it is desired
to change the course of the strange look
ing craft the rudder at one end of the
boat is locked, the sail is shifted about,
and the PROV starts off with the opposite
rudder doing the guiding.
The boat sails always on one side, a
wash board on the lee side projecting six
inches over the rail preventing her from
shipping water.
