RELICS STOLEN.
Jamaica Contribution to Coronation
Gift DisappearA

New York, July There is much ex-
element on board the ship Attractor,
moored at the Morris street dock, Jer-
sey city, owing to the stealing OF the
most precious thing on board-part OF
an old ships bell bearing the inscription
prince Of Wales, 1740," and consigned
to King Edward of England The bell,
or rather the pieces of it, were entrusted
to Captain Scott. according to his story,
by the British officials OF Kingston
Jamaica, the captain promising to for
ward them to the king upon his arrival
in port here. The relic. together with
coins valued at more than $4,000, had
been recovered from the sea by native
fishermen at point near Kingston and
turned over to the British officials, who.
upon discovering the inscription, decided
to send it to King Edward as corona
ton gift.
Captain Scott was about to sail, and
he agreed to bring the bell to New York
The relic was in two parts, having been
broken by the blasting necessary to re-
lease it from the rocks. Captain Scott
told the story OF the bell, and a few
minutes later 1t was mysterfously re-
moved from the ships hold.

investigation of Judge Dolman's books
and the records of the county treasurer,
I find that he has not paid over to the
county treasurer the S. fees for hearing
nor the one and one-haf cent fees for
fling affidavit Of druggists liquor sales
since February l, 1898, amounting from
February 1, 1898, to January IA, 1901, to
$2,356.54.
by the decision of Randall VS.. Board
of County Commissioners, these fees
belong to the county and that portion
of the same which is not barred by the
statute of limitation is a counter claim
against Judge Dolman. In the case of
Randall VS.. Board, cited above, the su-
prene court decides that the term fees
used in chapter 131 in the laws of 1897
In addition to the fees herein provided.
the probate judge shall be entitled to
receive such fees as are or may be pro-
vided by law for such services under
the prohibitory law applies to the SAL
der the prohibitory law. If this be true,
then the term fees in the following:
And II in any year the fees collected
shall be more than the amounts specf-
shall pay to the county treasurer of
their respective counties, one half Of
such excess when collected, taking dup
lieate receipts therefor one of which
they shall file with the county clerk and
such money shall become part of the
general fund of the county used in the
same section, would seem to apply tC
the salary the probate judge is to re-
ceive under the prohibitory law.
In this county, during the time in
question, the salary of the probate
Judge has exceeded the specified sum
and if this salary Is to be considered
as fees then, since 1T is in excess over
| the specified sum, it would follow tina.
only one half of it would be due from
| the county.
From the above, it follows that the
| county is indebted to Judge Dolman for
salary under the prohibitory law from
| May /. 1900, to June IA, 1901, which
| amounts to $587.37 unless the legislature
| intends that the salary under the pro-
| hibitory law be included in computing
| the excess fees of probate judges in
| which case the claim would be one halt
| of the amount or $294.19.
1T also follows that the county has a
| counter claim for fees collected by
| Judge Dolman under the prol1ibitory
| law and retained by him. If the two
years statute of limitation applies to
! the counter claim, then the counter
| claim would amount to $70754 and ii
| the 8 years statute applies then II
| would amount to 81, Isl. "a. Whichever
| construction is proper the claim OF
| Judge Dolman against the county Is
/ less than the counter claim of the coun-
| ty against him and I have accordingly
| disaIlowed his claim
