PHELAN'S CRAFT
How the Bright Young Ly-
ceum Man Became a
City Hospital
Trustee.
SORT OF CONSOLATION CUP
His Honor Would Have Made
Him Financier But the
Telephone Rang Too
Much.

Democrats, and Republicans, too, in
the Sixth ward, are very much amused
over story which has just leaked out
touching Mayor Fagan's appointment Of
Mr.. Andrew Phelan as member of the
new Board of City Hospital Trustees.
Since the Mayor lives in "de fift' . all
good things are supposed to go to that
section of the city. So the friends of Mr..
Phelan, who is very worthy young
man in the mason business, thought it
was only proper that their popular chpnl,
ANDY should have city office. They
decided upon the Board of Educa tion.
In the building of new public schools
would not his experience be useful? To
the Mayor they went.
Now His Honor is member Of. St.
Bridget's Lyceum, so is Mr.. Phelan, and
when the request for a place was made
His Honor at once, it is reported. said:
No, won't put him there. have re-
served him for place on the Finance
Board because / am informed he knows
all about bonds and the Finance Board
is the place for him.
1t was little Bobby Carey who told the
Mayor that Mr.. Phelan was an authori-
bonds. and those handled by the mason
dier very greatly from those handled by
a Finance Commissioner
REPUBLICANS ALARMED.
Nevertheless Phelans friends went
away charmed. The good news quickly
circulated. 1t soon reached the ears of
the Republican leaders and there was
CONSERVATION. The Mayor all day long
was kept busy answering telephone calls
from Nos. 40, 1902, Bergen 80, and a
mysterious cal lfrom Hoboken.
A VAIL.
I Not long after the new Finance Conn
missioner's appointment was made pub
lie, and as it didn't happen to be Mr..
ing and a gnashing of teeth among his
friends. As the Mayor put his foot in
the Lyceum the next night he was quick
ly told by certain people that he had
broken faith. Mr.. Phean received the
Mayor courteously and with commend
able delicacy endeavored to induce his
friends from showing any trace of feel
ing in the matter. But the young gentle
men of st. Bridget's Lyceum are fear
less and outspoken, and won't tolerate
humbug, and the result was an unhappy
quarter Of an hour for the Mayor
"Can't you take my word that the first
place I have to fill / will give one to
Mr.. Phelan?" pleaded His Honor.
"yerba volent," replied one Of Mr..
Phelan's friends, who is noted for his
erudition.
And it came to pass that to placate
his friends Mayor Pagan made Mr.. Phe-
Ian member of the Board Of City Hos
pital Trustees.

TO CHOP DOWN
The POLES.
Gutenberg Threatens Heroic
Measures Against the
Western Union Tel
graph Company.
WON'T PAY ITS TAXES
Corporations Insists That the
Assessments Are Excess
i've and Wholly
Illegal.


The Gutenberg Board of Council last
night directed Clerk Vanderbach to notl-
fly the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany and the New York and New Jersey
Telephone Company that their poles will
be cut down if they do not pay all ar
rearages of taxes inside of two weeks.
Neither company has paid any taxes
in two years. Each claim that the as
sessment is not only excessive but IL
legal for the reason that they should
have been assessed for personal property
and not for real estate.
A lengthy communication was last
night received from the telegraph COM
pany on the matter. The note says
ssThe town insists that it has right to
assess this company upon its franchise
on the grounds that the privilege OF do
ing business in the town is worth much
more to the company than the actuai
cost of material and construction OF lines
1t has been clearly established by law
that the town has no legal authority to
do this. All it can legally do is to levy
an assessment on the company's ma
terial property; that is to say, its poles,
wires and appurtenances and on its ma
terial value only. AS your assessment
for the past three years has been illegal,
we have applied to the State Board for
an adjustment
This communication caused something
of storm and led to the adoption of the
resolution that the poles of the two COM
panies be cut down if they do not pay
their taxes.

DEALERS LET co
Liquormen Selling Without
Licenses Make Satisfac-
tory Explanations.

The downtown liquor dealers who were
arrested last Monday on charge of do
ing business without applying for re-
newal Of their licenses, were discharged
by Police Justice Hoos this morning. As
.sistant Corporation Attorney Robert Car
ey declared that the city had no desire
to prosecute.
In the case of Patrick J. McInerney,
of No. 4S9 Henderson street, and his
bartender, Sylvester Keane, Mr.. Carey
said that he was satisfied that this busi-
ness was being closed out at the time OF
the arrest.
Councilman Andrew Hopper and JUS
Tin Dennison, who We're arrested for ex.
posing liquor for sale ct Nd. 845 Hender;
son street without the necessary license,
said that they have since paid in the Ii
cense fee of $3.50. They explained that
the delay in making their application for
a renewal of the license was due to diff
Guilty which they had with the brewery.

HIS OUTING SPOILED
Smallpox Changes Delaney's
Excursion to a Trip to the
Pest House.

While William Delaney, IS years old,
OF No. 55S1a Jersey avenue, was dress
ing yesterday morning to go on the an
nual parish excursion of st. Mary's Ro-
man Catholic Church up the Hudson, he
noticed ON looking in his mirror that his
face was covered with rash. His
head ached, too, but he didn't worry
about that. thinking that the ache would
go away on the trip up the river.
When his mother caught glimpse of
her sons face she advised him to consult
doctor before starting off on the ex-
cursion. He hesitated at first, but like
dutiful son, took her advice and went
to the City Hospital
As soon as the doctors got good look
at young Delaney they broke the news
gently that he had smallpox, and placed
him in an isolated room.
Delaney was greatly disappointed be-
cause he had to give up the pleasures of
the excursion. He was later sent to the
pesthouse at Snake Hill
Two weeks ago Patrick Cullum, who
lived on the same floor with the Delaney
family, went to the City Hospital. He
developed smallpox, and all his neigh
l bors were yaccinated twelve days ago as
precautionary measure.
Young Delaney said that he guessed
he wouldn't bother about having the
virus injected into his arm, but would
wait awhile Deputy Sanitary Inspector
Edward Salmon said that there was al
ways great danger in waiting, and De
laney told Salmon to go ahead with the
vaccination. The disease germs had
taken effect by that time.
The doctors at the pesthouse say that
Delaney has a very light attack of small
pox. They congratulated him ON his
good luck in getting vaccinated.
1T was late" said one, "but better
late than never.''

ANOTHER BIGGAR DENIAL
Reports From Long Branch and
Bayonne Anent the May Be-
Fortune at Queer Variance

Another denial of the alleged set
tlement of the contest against Miss
Laura Bigger by the other heirs of the
late Henry NJ Bennett, was made this
morning to reporter for ''The News by
DIR. Charles c.. Hendricks, Miss Biggar' S
attorney. His client expects to obtain
her beauest of sixty per cent. of the es-
tate, said to be worth $1,750,000.
A telegram from Long Branch alleged
Miss Biggar had agreed to accept $780,
600, and that p. McNulty, another bene-
ficiary, was to receive 100000. DR..
Hendricks said in reference to this story:
.aThere has never been any settlement
made with Miss Biggar. We have never
proposed a settlement or conference and
don't expect to. We refuse to accept
anything less than the amount bequested
and shall fight in the courts for our
rights. The reports yesterday alleging
that Miss Biggar has agrfeed to COM
promise for 100000 are without the
slightest foundation.
I'VE know nothing about the report
that 100000 is to be accepted by P. Nc
Nulty of Pittsburg, Pa, who was the
confidential man of the deceased for some
years and is principal beneficiary un-
der the will. In few days we shall
bring suit against Mr.. McNulty in Penn
sylvania to recover property from him
left in his custody by the deceased in or
der to obtain for my client her share of
the estate. This property now possessed
by McNulty consists Of a valuable thea
tire building. He obtained fourteen year
lease to the property shortly before Mr..
Bennett died, at merely nominal rem
tai. The lease Use from April |. Our OBJ
iect is to have the lease set aside and to
have the property sold and proceeds
divided among the heirs. We expect Il
be successful We have not changed our
stand from the outset and shall not ac-
cept anything less than the amount be
queathed. A Pittsburg paper has
made an attack upon my client and
have answered and refuted the state
ments in Letter sent today
Just what the newspaper attack con
sisted of the lawyer did not state.
