PLUMBERS PLEASED
WITH STRIKE OUTLOOK
REFUSED TO SET ASIDE
A FORMER DECREE
Decision of Justice Barnard in Contest
Over Will of Late Edward
Gatewood..

In connection with the settlement OF
the estate of the late Edward Gate
wood. Justice Barnard yesterday refused
to set aside his former decree direct
ing that the administrator OF the es-
tate. Samuel C. Thompson. be commit
ted to Jail for refusing to pay over GER
tain money. The administrator, how
ever. was not committed to Jail. but
was given Until Saturday next to make
a settlement.
Edward Gatewood was accidentally
killed in August last by falling from a
portico. When Thompson was ap-
pointed administrator of his estate he
effected compromise with the owner
OF the property where Gatewood met
his death. and the sum Of s225 was paid
to the estate. Out OF this the heirs of
Gatewood claim that there is $l3a left
after all expenses have been paid. and
the court, on May IL last, ordered that
this amount should be paid over TO E.
Hilton jackson, counsel for the distrib-
utees.
The administrator contends that there
is but s35 remaining to be distributed
after the funeral expenses of Gatewood
were paid.
The funeral expenses were not al
lowed to the administrator in the report
made by the Register of Wills.

DAMAGING EVIDENCE
AGAINST HENRY SILAS
Pistol With Which He Is Alleged to
Have Murdered Nettie Car
ter Shown in Court

The most damaging evidence given
yesterday against Henry Silas, colored.
who is on trial in Criminal Court No.
for the murder Of Nettie Carter. also
colored. in February last, was that of
the brother-in law of the dead woman.
He said that on the night of the tragedy
Silas called at his house. but was not
there long. when he learned that Nettie
Carter had died from the effects of her
wound. He then gave the witness
pistol and asked him to keep it for
him. The weapon was exhibited TO the
jury as the one with which Nettie Car
ter was shot.
Soon after the witness had received
the weapon from Silas the latter was
arrested, and MS fathers home search
cd. 1t was then, the witness said that
he gave the pistol to enc OF the police
men who came to the house.
This practically concluded the Gov
ernment's side OF the case, and the de-
Tense was begun. 1t is expected that
the defense will close its side of the
case this afternoon

SLIGHT EXTENSION
OF TIME GRANTED
Mrs. Merrill Given Two
Months to Remove Building.
Is Located on Rhode Island Avenue and
Attorney Birney Wanted Addi-
tional Six Months.

Mr.. A. a. Birney recently wrote to
the Commissioners asking that an extern
sion of time for six months be granted
for the removal OF houses belonging to
Mrs. Ina L. Merrill from the line Of
Rhode Island Avenue. The matter was
referred to Mr.. w. P. Richards. engineer
In charge of street extensions. and he
has submitted report in which he says:
ION May 9. 1900. Mr.. Birney. acting as
agent for Mrs. Merrill, made an offer of
$50 for the property referred TO, and
stated that Mrs. Merrill wished the early
removal OF that part OF the buildings
standing over the line of the street On
June c. 1900. Henry F. Getz, in behalf Of
Mrs. Merrill, requested TO have the north
building line OF Rhode Island Avenue
marked. as she had been notified TO take
down the buildings and was then ready
to meet The demand. Since tbs last date
up to May !, of this year. find no cor
respondence bearing uron the subject.
and can offer no reason for the delay in
the removal of the buildings.
Il do not believe the fact onered by
Mr.. Birney that the owner has no plans
prepared should be given any weight for
further delay, as there has certainly
been enough time for the preparation OF
these plans and a proper knowledge OF
the requirements OF such.
Attention is called to the fact that
the extension OF time for six months
will be near the beginning OF winter
and at a very inopportune time iof
building operations. ]. therefore, rec
ommend that the time be extended 10
August !, 1902, which is in accordance
with some recent extensions on Sherman
Avenue and Columbia Road.
Attention is also invited to the TACT
that although Columbia Road and New
Hampshire Avenue and Sherman Avenue
have been condemned since the extern
sion of Rhode Island Avenue, buildings
are being rapidly removed from the
FIRST named thoroughfares."
