NEW POINT IN BANKRUPTCY.


A new point in bankruptcy law Will
probably be raised when the petition of
Harry Holstein a feed dealer at the
junction of Congress and Washington
avenues IS heard by referee Newton.
Holstein filed his petition in bankruptcy
yesterday in the United States court.
His schedule shows liabilities amount
ing to $2,371.25, and assets of s1,575.57.
He has been in business on Congress
avenue for eight years His place was
attached few days ago by the j. Il.
Benham estate on bill of $3.50.
Most Of the claims against Holsteln
are held by four different parties as
follows: The S. d. Vets company of
Springfield, Mass, $500; A. B. McGrillis
&, Co of Providence, $500; HOLSTER,
Chase & Co., of New York, $40O, and
the claim Of the Benham estate.
Within the last four months Holstein
has paid out more than $4,000 to these
creditors, 1t Is claimed. Under a recent
decision of the United States supreme
court all money paid out by petition
err in bankruptcy 10 creditors within
four months of the time of filing the
petition, shall be returned to the estate
by the creditors receiving the same.

Mrs. George Wetssman Brings Action
Against William Nathanson-Nev

West Haven Court-City Court Cases.
Mrs George Weissman of 1914 Grand

liam Williamson of 1923 Grand avenue.
She alleges SANDER and places her
Attorney Benjamin Slade. The. prop
erty of the defendant has been attach
ed, and the case is returnable at the
September term of the superior court.
In her bill of complaint the plaintiff
alleges that on September 20 of last
year the defendant did, in the pres
ence of four witnesses, whom she names
and divers other persons, speak of her
in very disparaging words; that the
defendant questioned her chastity and
stated openly that she was a woman of
immoral character. These words, it is
alleged were uttered in the Yiddish
language, and the words and the Eng
lish translation of them are. given in
the bill of complaint.
The case has created much interest
in the neighborhood in which the par

with great curiosity. The husband of
the plaintiff conducts a ladies' clothing
and dry goods store at 913 Grand ave-
nue., while the defendant is well

1t Is Making Most Satisfactory Headway-
Plans Maturing.

The plans OF the Washington und An
napolis Electric Railway for the con-
siruction OF road between Baltimore
AID the United States capital, with a
branch TO Annapolis. are progressing
rapidly. Surveyors are making satistac-
tory headway in selecting the route. and
already twelve miles OF right ot.way out
of Washington have been secured. The
entrance TO Baltimore will probably be
through Westport, and il is reported thai,
arrangements have been made with the
United Railways and Electric Company
for connections with its lines. The Wash
ington railways are OF standard guage,
which is narrower than that OF the United
Railways, and it is proposed to lay a
third rail between the present rails on
certain lines in the city in order TO run
the cars into Baltimore On just what
streets this will be done has not been
definitely settled. The distance between
Baltimore and Washington will be thirty
two miles by the new route, and 1t Is
stated that this will be covered within
forty FIVE minutes. SDAdditional time will
be required TO reach the hearts of the
respective cities, but even then the run
ming time will not be slow. The cars
will be much larger than those used by
the United Railways and will be very
heavy. They will be capable OF making
sixty miles an hour. The junction of the
branch, with the main line, Ii
is learned, will be near Edmondton.

Marines At Camp Wainwright.

The Marine Corpse now stationed at
Camp Wainwright consists of about 100

enforcement to $50 never having arrived

Meats are very high. bacon has gone
up from 10 to IL cents per pound, and
there is general increase in the price of

for So 90 per dozen. and as they are
cheaper than meat the hucksters find
ready sale for them. The FISH market
contained fine selection Of fresh fish;
pan rock, yellow perch, white perch and
crocus were the principal fish on the fish
market stalls. Everything was fresh and
inviting in appearance, and the markets

CAUSE OF THE FIRE.
An Investigation Shows That 1t Was Due
10 An Electric Wire -


An investigation was held yesterday al
the Naval Academy as to the origin oi
the fire in the cadets upper quarters.
The court of inquiry consisted OF Lieut.
Commander William 5. Benson, Lieut.
Commander George L. Dyer and Lieu.
tenant Thomas w. kinkaid. The en-
ployes OF the Academy were examined,
and the investigation showed that the fire
was due to the electric current not being
turned off nom a copper coil under a
glue pot. 10 which the electric current
was attached. Two woikmen were on
the first floor of the quarters mending
wardTobes and bureaus, and when five
o'clock came, the hour for stopping, they
forgot TO turn OFF the electric current
before they left. The heavy curren; at
night superheated the glue pot, until il
became a fiery furnace, tell TO pieces red
hot on the table on which II was sitting,
set it on fire, and the table in turn set
the floor on FIRE, which was burned
through, with an opening three feet by
three. The damage was about S25 90
Superintendent Wainwright and Com
mandant Benson expressed themselves
as highly gratlhed at the expedition with
which the employees OF the Academy resi-
dent in Annapolis responded TO the fire
call. This promptness was particularly
necessary, as there was not a single
cadet in the Academy. and the cadets
form the chief corps of the Academy fire
brigade. The cadets are all on the sum-
mer practice cruise.

water takes on taste and smell that
savors of decayed animal and vegetable
matter. There seems to be no remedy
for it and the stay -at-homes are inflicted

made slckening by the offensive tasting
and smelling hydrant water. The long
