NO RELIEF NEEDED
FROM TREASURY.
Bankers Say Only Small Notes
and Silver Will Be Asked at
the Present T~ime-Different
from Last Year.

Wall Street bankers say that no Treas
Try relief Is needed at this time and that
the monetary situation is In suoh good
shape very little aid will be necessary.
Probably all that the financial district
will need from the United States Treas
ury will be several millions in SHALL
notes and silver. for which there Is al
ways n great demand.
II Is pointed out by the banking ira
tornity that the situation, 30 far as
the Treasury is concerned, is very DIFF
fcrent from what 1t was last year at
he corresponding time,
During July and August, 1901, In spite
OF the disbursement OF about Si,OO,NO
70; bonds purchased, the cash In the
general fund OF the Treasury was in
creased ny 1856, 32i, while this year for
the same period II has Increased only
$40. S1G,
The cash in the general fund u the
Treasury. bankers say. Is an lnfallible
indicator. So long as It does not in
crease materially, there Is no cause for
action by the Secratlry Of the Treasury.
When money piles up there. then
trouble must follow outside.

NOT THE RIGHT REMEDY
Injunction Would Be Prepos-
ferrous, Even Admitting That
Changed Plans Take Exca-
walton Near the House Line.

The application by. Charles T. Barney
for an injunction restraining the further
construction of the rapid transit tunnel
under Park avenue, between Thirty
fourth and Forty-second streets, on the
ground that there had been a substan-
tial departure from the original plan Of
construction. vas to-day denied by JUS
tice Giegecich in the Supreme Court.
The suit was brought by Barney as a
taxpayer, and the defendants named
were the Boar dof Rapid Transit Rail-
road Commissioners, who were repre-
scented by the Corporation Counsel, and
John B. Mcdonald, contractor for lie
tunnel, for whom Nicoll, Anable &
Lindsay appeared.
Justice Giegerich in denying Barney's
application grants costs TO each Of the
defendants appearing.
Plans Changed, He snys.
Barney claimed that the e~astsrly wall
of the tunnel was made to follow a line
distant ony seven fee, from the building
or house line of ..c st. Get ana that this
was not in accordance with the maps
and descriptions prepared by the Board

their powers. and was therefore Illegal.
Justice G.egerich says that it appears
that the tunne! at this point was delin-
Gated by the drawings which formed a
part OF the routes and general plan, as
under the centre If the street, with its
e~asterly wall distant some Imrty-seven
feet from the building or house line. II
these drawings. with their attendant de-
scription, were TO control the method Of
construction. then the present method is
unlawful because of the very substan-
tia! divergence in plan which has re-
suited.
The statute. Justice Giegerich says.
has provided means for 'egalizing n
Change of plan which involves a sub
s.as ,ial divergence from the original
scheme of construction. and II the pres
ent structure is unla wlul the illegality
exists simply be,Iuse the proper steps

Dealing with the technical illegallty
of the change in the plans, Justice
Glegerich says that taking the word

adorned with a big o, alighted from
the Twentieth Century Limited at
the Grand Central Station this morn
ing. 1t was John G. Osgood, Of Den
yer, the man who did up Gates.
Mr.. osgood did not observe much
scenery on the way from Chicago to
New York. He doesn't care much for
scenery anyhow. Soon after LEAVING
the Windy City he went to bed in his
stateSoom. When he got up this
morning the train was passinS
through Mott Haven. Mr.. Osgood
had barely time to get his clothes
on and tip the porter before the train
came to a stop in the station.
Enter John w. Gates.
At the anne hour another square,
jawed, alert man got off the Penn
sylvania Railroads twenty-hour train
in the station at Jersey City and
made a rush for the ferry-boat. This
was John w. Gates, the man Osgood
did up.
The new Western figure in the stock
market is a man of pleasing personality,
He has not so much the appearance
of a fighter as of a man who knows his
business. To an Evening World re-
porter he outlined the causes OF the
trouble between himself and Gates in
Colorado Fuel and Iron as they were
outlined in this newspaper yesterday.
Gates Doesn't Worry Him.
Somebody told me this morning, said
Mr.. Osgood. that Mr.. Gates was on the
train. He showed me a newspaper IN
which that assertion was made. II Mr..
Gates was on the train | knew nothing
of II, and 1t would a W made no differ

OF the dispute. but l am told that VIC
can comply with the Colorado law and
still abide by all the Stock Exchange
rules. II the other crowd wants to ask
for a receiver, there will be u hot time

While Mr.. Osgood was smiling and
affable Mr.. Gates was grumpy and sruf
and SHORTY. He went directly to the Of

there a few minutes before the opening
OF the market.

Judge Lacombe De-
cides Against Widow.

A decision was rendered to-day by
Judge Lacombe, In the United States
Circuit Court. in the famous Fay eT-
weather will case, He confirms the de-
cIsion'of the State Court of Appeals OF
July, 1897. which admitted the Will OF
the late Daniel b. Fayerwcather. the
millionaire leather merchant. to pro-
bate, and under the terms OF which
the grea.er part OF the estate, esti-
mated at So, 2Gr,OOO. was d!vired between
the various colleges and universities
mentioned in the Will.
Judge Lacombe's decision dlsmisses
the action brought by Emma Fayer-
weather and Mary Wachter, nieces OF
Lucy FayerweatheT, widow OF the dead
merchant, to contest the will, and leaves
the colleges and universities In the un-
disputed possession and enjoyment Of
the money granted them.
Another Appeal Ready.
The decision does not mean that the
case will end, as an appeal will be taken
at once 10 the United States Supreme
Court In Washington. 1t was not eN-
pected by the lawyers that Judge La
combe would reverse the State Court
OF Appeals, but they were anxious to
