Stockholders at Odds and Legal Com
 plications in Brooklyn Ball Cub.
 The courts are to be called on to decide certain differences which exist among the stockholders of the Brook lyn base ball club. Charles Ebbets, the clubs president, and Henry Medi- GUS, the treasurer, are arrayed on one side, and on the other F. A. Abell and Edward Hanlon. Abell was a few years ago an active figure in base ball and attended the different base ball meetings as Its chief delegate, while Hanlon was manager of the club last year, when he had differ ences with Ebbets and left to become manager of the Cincinnatis.
 The Brooklyn club is incorporated in New Jersey, and at the annual meeting of the stockholders in Jersey City yesterday the Ebbets following voted for Ebbets and his son Charles, Medicus and two other men not known to the base ball world as di- rectors. Their action. was protested by the Hanlon-Abell faction on the ground of ineligibility, and the latter faction voted for Hanlon, Abell and Howard c. Grifiths as directors. There will be contest in the courts of New Jersey to determine which of these boards is lawfully elected.
 Hanlon and Abell, holders of 1,209 out of 2,500 shares of the capital stock of the Brooklyn club, have be- gun suit in the court of chancery of New Jersey to compel Ebbets and Medicus to refund several thousand dollars alleged to have been drawn by them from the treasury of. the club as salaries, and in excess of the amount allowed by the certificate of organization of the company, during the years 1905 and 1906. The presi- dents salary is fixed by the charter at $4.000 and that of the treasurer at $2,000.
 : The bill alleges that Ebbets has drawn at the rate of $10,0O0 a year and Medicus at the rate of $4,000 a year. and the complainants seek the decree of the court that all moneys in excess of the charter salaries be refunded by the defendants, amount ing to about $16.000. The Hanlon- Abell faction is represented by James P. Northrop and Howard c. Grifiths, attorneys of Jersey ,City.

DELMAS TO SAVE HIM.
Noted Western Lawyer Will
 Defend Harry R. Thaw.
WEES STORY SURE TO SWAY JURY
Trial That Holds Fate of Young PittsburgeF Who shot and Killed Stanford White Fixed by
 .YArmun~ U,N~ n~r


 Stanford White Fixed by
 Jerome For Dec. 3.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Evelyn Nes bit Thaw holds the life of her husband at her command, or at least this Il said to be the belief of Dolphin M Delmas of California, the eminent law yer who has been retained for $1OO, GOO to conduct the defense of Harry Thaw in his trial for killing Stanford White.
 Thaw and his counsel. according tc information in the hands of the dis trict attorney, believe that she holds the key of the situation and that by going on the stand and giving testi. mony to prove that her husband was justified in shooting White she will be able to sway the jury to acquit him.
 MT. Delmas, who has won fame as the Napoleon of the Pacific coast bar," said he was sure Thaw would be saved by pleading the higher or ''unwritten" law.
 District Attorney Jerome has fixed Dec. 3 as the date for the trial before Recorder Goff or Judge Greenbaum in the supreme court.
 Judge Delmas called on his client in the Tombs and for the first time heard from the lips of Harry Thaw the story of the killing of Stanford White as Thaw looks st the tragedy and as he desires the jury to look at 1t.
 It is reported in circles in which Har- " Thaw moved before the tragedy that outside of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw got more than half dozen witnesses Will be called for the defense. They will testify that Thaw was driven to the verge of insanity by revelations concerning the relations existing be- tween Stanford White and Evelyn Thaw.
 In cases similar to Thaw's, in which he has been engaged by Mrs. William Thaw, Judge Delmas has successfully invoked the "unwritten law" That will be the Thaw defense. The killing of Stanford White, according to the in formation of the prosecution, will be justified by Judge Delmas upon the sworn confession, 1t is said, of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw.
 Under the skilled stage management of lawyer of the experience of Judge nalmas fhe dramatic nossihilities of such defense may be imagined.

FRACTIONAL FIGHT.

NEW YORK. Oct. 1s.-The speech
Of Senator McCarren, Of Brooklyn, de.
nouncing W. R. Hearst, the Democratic
candidate for governor, as bolter and
traitor, was one Of the sensations Of
the campaign. 1t is estimated that
what McCarren said will cost Hearst
no less than 10000 votes and assure
Hughes a plurality Of at least $4,000
in Kings county. This will be sad
blow to the Democratic ticket, as Mr..
Hearst had been very popular 10
Brooklyn, and had depended very
largely on that borough to roll up a
big plurality in Greater New York. He
won there last fall when running for
mayor on the Municipal Ownership
ticket by about $4,000.
Apparently, McCarren has thrown
up all hope Of saving his local ticket,
against which the Hearst League has
put up Independent nominations. While
still preserving the technical, regular
ity of the organization, he had boldly
advised his followers to get out and
work against Hearst.
There was some talk to-day of pun.
ishing McCarren for his action. 1t
was intimated that the State commit
tee might take some action, but at
this leaders of Kings county laugh.

Hearst Defends His Trust.

While Senator McCarren was max
ing his speech last night Tammany
Hall was rattfying the Buffalo nomina
tons. 1t also ratified the Murphy
Hearst judiciary ticket, but it was
noticed that no attention was paid to
the latest demands Of the Independ.
ence League, that two more candi,
dates be put on the ticket and two
Tammany men taken off.
There is still a great deal Of apathy
about the headquarters Of the Republi,
can State Committee, and many of the
rank and file OF the party are grum,
bling because Chairman Woodruff does
not hustle more. They say that the
defeat of Hearst is by no means a
sure thing, and that what is wanted Is
more ginger in the campaign. Mr..
Hughes invaded Manhattan, and spoke
at noon to an audience of business men.
Tonight he made other speeches in
Manhattan and the Bronx. Mr.. Hearst
is still UP the State doing splendid
work for his side. He will be back
in the city next week, and lively times
are then looked for.

lars for Repairs.

According to the statements OF men IA
miliar with the subject, the city hall steam
heating plant is In poor condition and will
require the expenditure of from $500 to
$1,000 to make the repairs demanded. The
plant has been permitted gradually to run
down ard deteriorate until all of the three
boilers require all kinds OF attention. The
elevator machinery also is badly out of
whack, and two cylinders, costing about
5000, are needed to make the lifts as
good as the average In the city In the
boiler room sewers and drains do not work
properly and the boilers are settling to the
extent of further damage. Efforts made
by Engineer Belknapp to bave the boilers
and machinery given the proper care have
not produced results up to the present.
Committees from the council have looked at
the boilers. asked for the advice of the
boiler inspector. and done nothing.
Since the floors were repaired little or
nothing has been heard about the general

JUDGE EASTMAN PLAYS FIFE
Omaha Veteran Arouses Great Inter-
est rs Unique Figure al. G. A. n.
Encampment.

Justice of the Peace Eastman of Omaha
was quite a conspicuous figure Tuesday
evening at the West hotel, Minneapolis
where he played with the famous Bucktail
band of Grand Rapids. Mich, In connec-
ton with the Grand Army of the Republic
encampment being held in Minneapolis
Judge Eastman appeared as an impromptu
fifer, and with his striking patriarchal
figure and stirring music added much to
the occasion. Over 1000 veterans gathered
In and around the West hotel and cheered
the Bucktaii band and It's Omaha member
to the echo. William H. Single, one Of
the members of the band. carried a drum
made In 1776 and used in the revolutionary
war by a Pennsylvania drummer boy.
Many Grand Army veterans have re-
turned from the Minneapolis encampment
They say the crowds are largely in excess
of the expectations. No complaint is made
OF treatment. but many of the old veterans
now passing homeward through omaha
preferred to start home before the crowds
started. The great mass of the veterans
began pouring out of Minneapolis We'd
nesday evening after having seen the
grand parade.
