Emil wacher 10 years old. and Harry

Schmidt confessed that he and Watcher
formed a partnership for the purpose of
carrying on whatever they could find Of
value on the piers.
Wacher had been a mess steward on the
Steamship Valencia OF the Hamburg Ameri-
can line and had a podding acquaintance
with many Of the officials on the piers.
Schmidt had served as a cabin boy on the
steamship st. Paul Of the American Line.
The pair would loiter around the piers on

and other property OF passengers. Schmidt
said nobody ever bothered them In their

around. On several occasions they walked
on with trunks.
he steamship companies have received
,stters from persons abroad complaining

at home there, "The Truants,"
by A. +. w. Mason, not only
introduces the reader to certain
phases Of modern London life,
but speedily involves him in a
plot of engrossing interest, which
centers round a man who must

is Of the genuine kind which does

Charles w. Morse will have to submit
to q searching examination concerning his
manipulation Of the stock and properties
OF the American Ice Company, according
TO decision rendered yesterday by
Supreme Court Justice Barrett. John f.
Mcdonald is suing Morse to recover 500, 900,
which, he says, he lost because OF Morse's
advice to him to buy and hold some 7 500
shares of the stock just before 1t dropped
from about OF for preferred and $40 for
common to very low figure. The prices
to-day are about So and ~, respectively.
Mcdonald got an order for Morse's exami-
nation before trial, which the Appellate
Division upheld.
Morse's counsel Guggenheimer. Inter
myer Il Marshall asked Justice Barrett
yesterday to limit the scope of the examine
ton which is set for Oct. -, before Eugene
II. Pomeroy, 81 Nassau street, to questions
concerning the allegations that Morse, as
president Of the company had authorized
the payment OF dividends out of capital,
and also concerning the number of sub
sidary ice companies which, IL is alleged,
Morse caused the American Ice Company
TO buy.
James W. Gerard Jr.. counsel for Nc
Donald. opposed such a limitation We
accuse Morse said Mr.. Gerard, of fraud
and deceit in many ways which We cannot
allege in detail unless we examine him
before trial For instance, We charge that
he procured dummy in the shepe of a
clerk called Sprague, to whom properties
of the Consolidated and knickerbocker
Ice companies we're conveyed. These prop
critics were worth, possibly. SS0O,Oo but
Sprague az the dummy owner got through
Morse and his board Of dummy directors,
Sis S8t 600 in stock for them.
Again we charge that he caused a deal
to be contaminated by which the knicker-
booker Steam Towage Colupany's proper
ties were sold to the American company
for 81 200 600 in stock. The dummy in that
tase was negro porter IN the ONCE OF
Poor & Co. This negro's name was signed
to letter making an offer of the properties
and guaranteeing the financial value OF
them. That offer was accepted by Mr..
Morse and his directors In fact we charge
broadly that the corporation was all water
mot ioel, from the beginning, and we have
a right to examine him concerning all these
matters and to find out what profits he
made by these and other transactions
Justice Barrett decided that he would
not limit the examination in any way.
Should the defendant refuse to answer
any questions. on the ground that the an
swers might tend to degrade him or sub
ject him to a criminal charge, or on any
other ground the matter can be brought
here and passed upon, he said.
