Making Trouble for Builders OF the Han

SpecGi Cdt.e Despatch 10 TIM sun
LONDON, July l0A despatch to the
Times from Shanghai says thore III serious
friction between Sheng, Director OF Posts
and Railways, and Manager Gray OF the
American-Chinn development Company, III
reference to the construction Of the HAN
kow-Canton railway. Sheng has appealed
TO the Chinese Minister at Washington
to defer signing the first mortgage bonds,
which are deliverable to the company
under the terms of the contract, lhe
situation IL deadlock. The matter has
been referred to the United States legation.
Sheng attributes his action to his personal
objections to Mr.. Gray, but 1t ia certain that
whatever impotence has been recently
displayed by Mr.. Gray has been directly
due 10 the fact that Sheng ignored his rea-
sonable protests, declined 10 discuss urgent
questions and failed To reply to commune
cat ions, the const ruction OF the line being
thereby blocked, and the engineers com
PEELED to remain in idleness.
Well Informed Chinese express the
opinion that Sheng desires TO substitute
Belgian for American control over the
construction His position renders it
necessary for the United States to insist
upon strict fulAlment of the contract and

street was not a bit grateful to Policeman
Abraham Harrison of the Broadway squad
for saving his life yesterday afternoon,
There had been block at Broadway and
Houston street, and after it was relieved
the trolley cars began to shoot by. The
policeman saw Gerson in front of car
and showed him out of the way with u
quick motion. at the same time jumping
back to avoid the car himself.
Gerson thought that he had been rudely
treated, and after the car had passed be-
tween them he began to abuse the police
man. In his excitement he got in the
path of another car, and the policeman
had to shove him violently in the other
direction. He fell and skinned his elbow
slightly, and became 40 abusive that the
policeman arrested him.
Three witnesses went with him to the
jefferson Market police court, but the
testimony they gave was conflicting.
Magistrate Cornell finally said; "These
Broadway policemen do good work and
rick their lives daily. I can understand
your point of view. but can also put my
self in the place of the policeman. A fine
would mean nothing to a man like you, so

Take $500, OOO Of Property LETT 20
Grandchildren and Pay Them Annulties

TRENTON, July l5.--Chancelor Magic
filed AN opinion to-day favorable to the
Metropolitan Museum Of Art, about carry
ing into effect trust provided for in the
will of the late Jacob Rogers. The specific
object Of the trust was To provide annuitles
Of $500 each to two of Mr. Rogers'a grand
children, Thomas b. Bradford and Theo-
dore b. Rogers. Embraced in the trust was
real estate in New York city and Paterson,
and IA large block of the stock of the Pater-
son and Hudson River Railroad Company.
The property set aside for this trust,
valued at more than $500, 900. was exclusive
Of property willed directly to the Mctropo-
Titan Museum Of Art. and II was provided
that upon the death of the longest lived
OF the grandsons the trust should cease
and the property be turned over to the
Metropolitan Museum of Art in addition
TO the property willed directly to that
institution.
One Of the provisions of the trust was
that the income should be applied, first
TO the payment of all taxes and assess-
ments, and second, TO the paying Of the
annuties. The proofs in the case are TO
the effect that because much of the land
embraced in the trust il unimprOved the in
come Is not sufficient 10 pay even the
taxes and assessments The question
was whether the Chancellor had right to
alter the scheme rs defined in the will to
permit the turning over Of all the real estate
embraced in the trust to the Metropolitan
Museum of Art upon receiving sufficient
guarantee from that institution for the
payment of the annuities provided for in
the will. Upon this point the Court says
"lf the testator did not anticipate and
provide for the care Of the income being
exhausted in the payment Of the imposi-
tons upon the real eatUt", and. If by change
