written to ]. Hastings Rowland. of the
Public Works Office, that the poles that
are now standing in the street makai
of Aala Park will be taken down in
the near future.
1t seems that these poles formerly
were not in the street, but when King
street was widened they were left
where they are. The company, how
ever, intended to remove them, and
other poles were set in closer to the
sidewalk and out of the roadway to
carry the cables. In his letter to Mr..
Rowland, Mr.. Lehigh says that the
company is only waiting for the arrival
of the new cable, which is expected by
the next steamer. When that comes 1t
will be strung on the new poles and
the old ones will be taken down forth

Colonel Henry I. Kowalsky and

counter yesterday in the courtroom Of
Justice of the Peace lawson in which
Meadows came out second best. The
incident occurred just before the trial
OF the suit of j. A. Miller, as Meadows
assignee, to recover $299 SO from Ko-
walsky, alleged to be due from certain
patent letter street signs. The court
room was full of spectators waiting for
Judge Lawson to appear.
koWalsky and Meadows were seated
near each other and began to discuss
the case. kowalsky said something
which angered Meadows, who there
upon reviled Kowalsky and at
the same time rushed threateningly
toward him. The latter, despite his
3OO pounds avoirdupois, was too quick,
however. Rising quickly, he gave
Meadows blow between the eyes
straight from the shoulder Blood
streamed from Meadows face and a
lively scrimmage ensued, in which sew

PROVES KELLEY

Police Sergeant Sylvester
Gives Valuable Evidence
in the Metcalfe Inquest

Important testimony was given yes
terday by Police Sergeant Daniel Syl-
vester at the inquest on the body of
Edward Bruce Metcalfe. who was shot
and killed at Is Seventh street on the
morning of December 20, presumably
by Edward Pierce Keeiey. the para
mour of the dead mans wife. Mrs
Annie Metcalfe, the widow, had just
testified denying that she had told the
police that Kelley did the shooting.
She said that she supposed 1t might
have been Keeley.
Sergeant Sylvester said that he
found Metcalfe dead on the floor of
room s and Mrs. Metcalfe sitting on the
edge of the bed in room 6. She was
attired only in her undershirt. The
lower part of her body was covered
with a bedspread, and on the spread
was the bloody imprint of a bare foot.
The witness said that he talked with
the woman in that room for an hour
and half or two hours and that she
told him that Keeley had shot her hus-
band. She had first inquired whether
her husband was dead and when told
that he was she declared that she
would not tell the witness anything.
When he asked her where the revolver
was Mrs. Metcalfe replied that he
should catch Keeley and probably he
would find where the weapon was.
The witness then testified that he
went to 603 Eddy street, where Kelley
and Mrs. Metcalfe had roomed. There
he was informed by two persons whose
names he declined to divulge that
shortly after the shooting Keeley had
come to his room and told them that
he had killed Metcalfe. They said also
that Kelley changed his clothing for
a blouse and overalls and left the
house.
The witness added tnat he had
learned that the revolver had been
given to Kelley by a man who was
afraid that his wife would commit sui
eide and who therefore did not like to
have the weapon lying around.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles 7. Byrne, who
occupied a room directly opposite that
in which Metcalfe had been killed, tes-
titled that they heard the sound of
angry voices, scuffle. the report of a
pistol and footsteps of some one run
ming down the hall. Mrs. Byrne found
Mrs Metcalfe sitting on the bed near
her husbands body. When she asked
Mrs. Metcalfe what was the matter
she received profane reply. Then
Mrs. Metca1fe wrapped sheet about
her and went into the hail.
The inquest will be resumed this
morning.
