ANIMALS SUFFER FROM HEAT.
Two Truckloads OF Calves and Horses
Drawing Them Frustrated.

The teams attached to two cattle trucks
loaded with forty-five calves, on their way
from the freight yards Of the New York
Central Railroad to the slaughter house
at the foot OF East Forty-fourth street be-
came overheated yesterday noon at Broad
way and Fifty-sixth street. Nicholas
Schnipp owned the trucks and horses
The drivers worked over the horses in
the burning sun for two hours end then,
firing of the job, went away. leaving horses,
calves and trucks, By this time the heat
began to tell on the calves. One by one
they fell to the floors OF the trucks and
as they fell they were trampled by the rest.
Several hundred people gathered by this
time, and suggestions of all kinds were
offered to the half score policemen who
gathered about the trucks.
Some one suggested that the trucks
be pulled up to lot at the northeast corner
of Fifty-eighth street and Broadway. About
it to the lot, but those who pulled the sec
ond were not as successful. They pulled
it as far as the Rutland Apartments on the
southwest corner o. Nfty-seventh street
and Broadway, and then H.. g aye it up;
out fire hose and turned a stream of water
on the truckload of calves. The water
seemed to work wonders with them, for
most Of them arose from the floor OF the
truck very much revived. A team of
horses was then detached from passing
truck and the second load of calves was also
moved to the lot and all the animals we're
liberated. Four of the calves had died,
however, before they could be got of the
truck, and three looked as though they
wouldn't survive long.
Engine Company 2s is located alongside
the lot on Fifty-eighth street. and the fire.
men stretched two lines of hose, with which
they sprayed the animals literally.
An officer Of the Society for the Preven-
ton Of Cruelty to Animals appeared In a
few hours He said 1t was shame that the
calves were 40 neglected. About 4 O'Clock
two Of Schnipp's drivers took the four
horses away, leaving the calves to roam
about the lot.

STATEN ISLAND WANTS WATER.
Supply Said to he Sb ort Because OF Summer
Resort Communion.

For the last few days the Crystal Water
Company and the Board of Health have
been receiving from residents Of Grymes
Hill, Stapleton, Ward Hill. Tompkinsville
and Arrochar, Staten Island complaints
of a shortage Of water. Residents Of
Clifton have declared that the water is
turned on only between the hours of 7
and in the m orning and after that none
can be obtained. At the Crystal Water
Company's Offices they were told that the
company was cleaning its reservoir.
Yesterday it was admitted by officials Of
the company that it was short of water
and 1t was sad that unless relief is obtained
there may he water famine. The COM
pany says the consumption OF water at
South and Midland beaches this summer
has been greater than ever before and to this
lie sscribed the shortage, A few days ago
the company started to lay mains from
Stapleton and Concord to its wells at Gar.
retson, but the work was stopped by an
injunction obtained by Borough President
Cromwell and Isaac Van Buskirk on the
ground that it has no franchise permitting

WHITNEY ESTATE TRUST.
Harry Payne whitney Asks Court 10 Pass
on Horse Sale and Other Matters

Harry Payne Whitney has begun an action
in the Supreme Court to have his accounts
and actions as executor of the will Of his
father. William c. Whitney. who died on
Feb 2, 1904, passed upon by the court,
and also to have the court determine the
validity Of certain clauses OF tho will prin-
tee of the estate. All Of the affairs con-
neoted with the administration Of the
estate have been settled, and Mr.. Whitney
is now prepared to assume his duties as
sole trustee, if the court approves.
His principal action as executor. about
which any question has been raised, was
his purchase Of the better part OF rl.e stable
belonging to his father. AS will he re-
membered, the horses we're sold a. auo-
ton, Mr.. Whitney, as executor, having
concu ded that such a sale was the only
feasible way Of disposing OF the horses,
He bought number OF the blooded stock
paying about tSO0OOo for them. but he
had reached an agreement to this effect
with his brother, Payne Whitney. and the
sale was held openly and the prices. he
says, we're fair and reasonable.
Some discussion has arisen. however,
as to the propriety OF his action In this
regard, and he says that he stands per-
fectly willing to restore the horses and
have a resale II the court should consider
this necessary.
Mr.. Whitney Ia himself the principal
beneficiary under his fathers will, reoelv-
ing one-half OF the entire estate on the e1-
piration Of the trust, which will last until
1910, and for that reason he is most anxious
for a definite court judgment concerning
the validity OF the trust, which includes
all the estate. The point has been raised,
he says, that his beneficial interest in the
trust fund may affect the legality Of his
actions az trustee.
Justice Gildersleeve granted permits
sion yesterday to serve the children Of Mrs.
Almeric H. Paget, sister OF Mr. Whitney,
who reside in England, by publication,
as we'll as the other relatives who are
interested In the estate. Elihu Root 10

SGRAHTS HARTMAN PETITION
SUPREME COURT TO HEAR CASE
INVOLVING CONTROL OF
NORTHERN PACIFIC.

Washington. Jan. 31--The supreme
court of the United States has grant
ed the petition for a writ of certiorari
In the case of f. H. Hartman and
others VS.. the Northern Securities
company, growing out of the former
decision of the court relative to the
distribution OF the stock of the Securi-
ties company
The effect Of granting the writ is to
bring The case to the supreme court
for review. The argument is set for
Feb 20.
New York, Jan. 31.-The decision of
the supreme court to hear arguments
on the petition for writ of certiorari
in the Northern Securities case caused
sharp drop in all the stocks which
have been sensitive to the course of
that case. Weakness had developed
before the courts action was an.
nounced and became more acute after
noon. Northern Securities on the curb,
after selling early at 155, dropped to
147B Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific yielded over 2 points and St.
Paul nearly 2 points. The rest OF the
market was affected in sympathy, but

SWEDISH WITNESSES TESTIFY.
Called in North Sea Inquiry in Spite
of Russian Objection.

Paris, jan 31.-The international
commission inquiring into the North
sea incident at its session during the
day heard two Swedish witnesses,
Captain Johnson and Mate Stromberg
of the cargo boat Aldebaran They
both testified that few hours preced-
ing the firing on the British traWlers
by the Russian squadron their boat
was attacked in the North sea by a
strange warship, which fired many
shots at the Aldebaran, but did not do
serious damage. The stranger then.
disappeared.
~ Counsel for Russia protested that
this testimony was not directly con-
nected with the North sea incident,
but Admiral Fournier, president of the
commission, ruled that the testimony
was admissible. Hugh O'Beirne, the
British agent, said that the strange
vessel was the Russian transport
Kamtchatka, which mistook the Swed-
4ish craft for torpedo boat. Mr..
O'Beirne further declared that the
Kamtchatka thereafter sent wireless
message to Vice Admiral RojestvensSy
notifying him that she had been at
tackled by a torpedo boat and Rojest-
vensky thereupon ordered his squad
ron to be on the lookout for torpedo
boats, which, Mr.. O'Beirne asserted,
caused the North sea incident

st. Petersburg, Ian. 3 Most of the
factories and mills of st. Petersburg
are in operation and the strike to all
intents and purposes is ended. a few
large establishments have not yet
fully resumed operations owing to the
official formalities necessary in regis
tering their thousands of employees.
Some of the Workmen at the Putiloff
works, where the strike originated,
have asked for the celebration of re
ligious service by the metropolitan of
st. Petersburg before resuming work
so as to remove the effect of the
presence of the unfrocked priest and
communicated leader, Father Co
pon. .
Some Social Democrats are protest.
ing against the arrests of Friday and
Saturday on the ground that the action
taken was a violation of the implied
promises contained in the proclama-
ton OF the authorities. The Mnnufac-
turers' association will meet this week
to decide the question of paying the
wages OF the strikers for the time the
latter were not at work, but as num-
Der of the works have already paid
their unsllilled laborers, whose payday
was Jan. 2S, half of full time, the rest
Of the employers will probably decide
70 pay their Workmen at least part OF
their wages for the time they were on
strike.
AT Kieff several of the big machine
shops and engineering works are idle
owing to the strike there and the
bakeries are partially closed, with the
result that the price of bread has
risen. The military are patrolling the
streets. AT Mitau there have been
some disorders and a police superin-
tendent was wounded. The troops
there have not vet used their arms. A
battery of artillery and a battalion of
troops have been dispatched from
Wilma to Libau.
