Mr.. PITNEY ANGRY

Vice Chancellor Pitney this morning
told some of the lawyers in Chancery
Chambers that he was tired of the con-
duct of certain gentlemen of the long
robe who instead of attending to their
cases set down for a trial on a certain
day before a Vice Chancellor would be
absent.
TITS monstrous,'' he said, angrily, that
some members of the bar attempt to
make the Court of Chancery subserylent
to other courts. This cause has been set
down before me for trial, l will not ad-
iourn it. The time of this court is too
valuable to be wasted in this fashion. l
would have you know that in England
the Judges will not let causes to be ad-
journed in any haphazard fashlon IKE
this. Cases set down must be disposed
of and counsel must be ready for trial-
Under no circumstances will allow TINS
court to be made matter of convenience
to lawyers who are engaged elsewhere.

Yesterday he said, II was coming
from Philadelphia, and when past Tren-

me with some whiskey. and he refused
unless I had sandwich. Now didn't
want it, and besides they charge 25
cents for it''
Mr. James G. Gibbons, superintendent
of the Pullman Company for this division,
said that the company was not to blame
He added that some time ago an individ-
ual in South Jersey unearthed an old blue
law forbidding the selling of liquor alone
on railway trains within the boundaries
of the State and he threatened to have
the company punished if it violated that
law.
For that reason said Mr.. Gibbons,

PATRoLMAN REILLY DEAD

Patrolman Patrick Reilly of the Second
precinct police station died at his home,
No. 2361s Seventh street, last night after
two months illness. Blood poisoning was
the cause of death. Two months ago the
large toe on Officer Reilly's right foot
became callous and he used knife on it.
Blood poisoning soon set in. He died in
agony Though the best medical aid was
secured, every effort to save him was
useless.
Reilly was appointed on the force in
June, 1880. He had an excellent record.
He was unmarried. No funeral arrange
ments have as yet been made.

Calmly Dressed
Himself.

To keep supposed burglar covered with
a revolver while jumping out of a night
robe into clothing that will pass muster
in the street Is no easy task
for a man, even though he is
assisted by his wife. Cornelius
Baans, who is proprietor of a hotel at
No. 314 Hapson street. Hoboken, has lost
$1,000 in the past year by small robberies.
Shortly after four o'clock this morning
he was awakened by noise outside OF
his room, over the cafe on the ground
floor
Springing out of bed Baans secured a
revolver and cautiously peering out of the
room saw a man trying to open an ads
joining door.
Sup with your hands," he commanded,
pointing the gun and stepping out into
the hallway.
The strangers hands went up. Keeping
the man covered Baans called to his Wite
for some clothing. Trousers, coat, shoes
and hat were thrown into the hallway by
the nervous Mrs. Baans, who implorea
her intrepid spouse to be careful. Keep
ing the gun pointed with one hand Baans
dressed himself with the other, after he

He was unable to explain his presence
in the house when arraigned before Re-
corder Stanton today and he was held in
$500 bail for the Grand Jury, charged with

CONTESTS AuNT'S WILL
Miss Callahan Seeks te Gain Pose
session of jewels.

The will of Katherine D. Callahan. filed
in the New York Court today for probate
is to be BITTERLY contested for by her
aunt, Margaret Williams, of No. 454 Fair
mount avenue, this city. Miss Canahan
left an estate valued at s200,O00, most of
1t to religious institutions.
The peculiar feature of the will is the
disposition of her jewelry-a rare collec-
ton OF precious stones valued at $4,000.
1t is made up of sunbursts, rings, ear
rings, bracelets, crosses, stickpins and
brooches.
The will directs that all the settings
shaIl be melted, together with $1,000 in
goid, ana made into an ostensoriunl. Into
this golden receptacle are to be placed the
gems. When this has been done the yes-
sci is to he given in trust to the executor.
who is. to deliver it to the Female Acad-
emy of the Sacred Heart for use in the
said academy
The protest against the probate of the
Will is made on the ground that Miss Cal
lahan was suffering from religious mania
when she made it. 1t will be further
argued that the clause of the will relat
ing to the precious stones is ineffective.
as 1t creates trust without fixing time
limit for it.

A False Alarm Arrestsr.

The ingenuity of the inventor is amaz-
ing. The latest in the field is a Miss
Ellen E. Tyndale, whose invention, ac-
cording to the London Globe" certainly
hlls a gap. though it may be doubted
whether it will be really practicable. It is
meant to check the false fire alarmist,
who can at present play his abominabie
practical Joke with impunity, and it takes
the form of an automatic alarm post
which not only rings up the fire station
but also grips the wrist of the alarmist
with steel bracelet blows a police whis-
tie and presents the man with a shilling
for his trouble. The prisoner can be re-
leased by the policeman. and the authen-
tieity of the alarm can thus be verified
The invention wiuld hardly. perhaps
meet with general appreciation.

Memorial Day Orders,

Once more, as the years roll around,
has Memorial Day come, bringing with it
Its solemn duties and sad recollections of
those who fought by our side in the war
of the rebellion, and marched with US In
later years upon each successive Memori-
al Day. The custom of decorating the
graves of our fallen comrades Is dear to
the hearts of all veterans. No one who
ever wore the blue should be absent from
the cemeteries or fail to join the ranks of
their comrades on that day. Every COM
rade of the g. A. R., every veteran of
Stafford, and every veteran In town tenn
porarily on that day is expected and cor
daily invited to fall In. That there Is
some one In the ranks whom you do not
like Is no excuse for your keeping away.
1t Is your duty to your dead comrades that
you are paying, not to the living. Our
ranks are thinning fast-who will be the
next? Veterans, let us present united

your presence at all the exercises on that
day. Show by your presence in the GEM
eteries your hearty appreciation of the

worth an effort to inculcate a love of
country in the minds of the children, and
thus insure for the future an army of
loyal citizens? We appeal to you not to
let this day degenerate into day of
horse racing and other sports, but that it
be kept sacred to the memory of the no.
BILE dead, who have died in defence of the

has waged for the upbuilding of a free
republic and the extending of universal
