Father-in-Law and Son-in-Law
Strive to Arrest One Another.


The Indictment against Israel Raphael,
a clothing dealer Of No. 225 Rivington
street, New York, found against him by
the last Grand Jury for grand larceny,
on complaint of his son-;n-,aw, Samuel
Hillar, formerly a grocer of Morgan
street, Union Hill, was nolled in the
Quarter Sessions Court by Assistant
Prosecutor Vickers this morning.
Raphael had hardly left the court
room when he was again arrested, this
time in a civil case, in which the son-in-
law is plaintiff and who charges Raphael
with the conversion of 1,225, the pro-
ceeds of the sale of Killers Morgan
street grocery store.
This is the second chapter of a family
row which has aroused the relatives and
friends of both the Raphaes and Killers
on each side Of the river. 1t began when
Hitler married Rebecca Raphael two
years ago. Her father gave her 81 900
and the son-in-law diamond pin The
grocery business did not become re-
r1uncrative and creditors paid frequent
calls. He then sold it and asked that
the check be made payable to his father
in-law. Hitler asked Raphael to pay it
over, but the old man refused. Hitler
then sent his wife and child to New
York to be supported by her father. She
afterward had Hitler arrested for nom
support at her fathers instigation, Hill
Ter SAYS. and he had to furnish q bond
to give her Sc a week. Hitler retaliated
by having his father-in-law indicted by
the Hudson County Grand Jury, which
resulted in the nolle pros. today and the
arrest on the civil process afterward
n Counsellor Goldenhorn, Raphael's
counsel. is now going to have Hitler in
dicted for perjury and may seek his
clients release on habeas corpus.

First Criminal Court this morning for
decorating job that he id day or so
ago. His wife Ida made the compliant
and presented for inspection a pair of
eyes, the surroundings of which were
colored by almost every hue of the rain
bow. The fact that Ch;dester has only
one arm interfered in no way with his
artistic work
The cause of the painting was the fact
that when Chdester arrived home one

Finance Commissioner P. Anthony
Brock introduced the following resolution
1T the meeting of the Board Of Finance
yesterday afternoon:
hereas, By-resolution of the
Board of, Finance passed oath day +
of July. 1901, which resolutin also
approved the Tax Budget for the
fiscal year ending Dec. 1, 1902, the
sum of $685. 800 was deducted, which
said $62, 500 was to be transferred
from the liquor license receipts after
July 1, 1902.
Whereas, 1t is the opinion of this
Board that the adoption of the said
resolution, date 24th of July, 1901,
nd transfer the sum of $62, 500.
'ithout further action of this Board,
nd
Whereas, If the opinion of this
Board is correct, the appropriations
by resolution of this Board would
exceed the receipts of liquor license
monies since July /, 1902 Be it
Resolved, That the Corporation
COUNSEL be directed to advise this
Board, at its next meeting, as to the
legality. of all such resolutions so
exceeding the receipts of liquor Ii
censes account since July 1, 1902.
Mr.. Brock and Commissioner Lembtck
oted for its adoption and their Republi-
can colleagues, President Ringle and
Commissioners Perry, voted against it
not desiring any legal light on the ques-
tion.
NOTHING TO SAY.
None of the Commissioners had any.
thing to say on the resolution, which was
lost on tie vote. Mr.. Bacon was alb
sent.
The resolution adopting the tax budget
of 1902 followed the usual form and
included the sum of $62,5O0 to be taken
from the liquor license moneys of 1901 -0s
which moneys would not be collected un
til after July 1, 1902. The practice il
former years has been to pass a supple
mentary resolution in July, when thu
liquor license moneys may have beer
abundant, ordering the transfer of thu
amount included in the tax levy upon tn,
books of the Comptroller.
1t has not been considered, however
that the resolution was in the nature 0
an appropriation, the appropriation beinl
fully covered in the. tax budget resolu
ton. Ii was regarded more as an ex
planatory note to the necessary bookkeep
ing operation when the actual transfer o
the money took place.
This year the present Board of Fl
nance neglected to pass the supplement
tary resolution in July. Instead it passe'
resolution to which COMMISSIONS
Brock has made strenuous objections
turning over the sum Of 100000 to tn
Sinking fund.
LICENSE MONEY NOT ENOUGH.
AS the liquor license fund did not con
tain money enough for both purposes,
was considered that the Sinking Fun
appropriation was virtually an approprl
ntion of the same money twice over. Th
operation leaves a deficit somewhere. ]
either leaves n deficit in the liquor licens
account or else II leaves d deficit IN til
