FOR RINK ON
GREACEN LAND

This city bids fair to have three
roller skating rinks in the near fu-
ture, for negotiations are now pend
ing for the leasing of S. b. Greaceh S
property at the west of the garage on
Smith street, between Madison ave-
nue. and Mcclellan street, by a New
York syndicate.
If the deal is consummated as ex-
pected, the New York concern will
start within two or three days to plan
the erection of the rink.
Captain Greacen did not divulge
the name of the New York firm to-
day, as the deal is not yet an assured
fact
The sport of roller skating is des-
tined to attain great popularity here
this winter. A rink has been opened
at Columbia hall on State street, and
talk is heard of the planning of a
rink on the Pratt property at New
Brunswick avenue and Jefferson
street.

THREW MEDICINE AWAY.
In the Toms River Murder Trial
Miss LippinCOtt Declares that
She Emplied Bottles Rather
Than Give Contents 10
the Patient.

TOMS RIVER, N. j., Oct. 1.-THE
direct testimony OF two of the states
witnesses at the trial of DR.. Frank
Brouwer for the murder of his wife
was attacked in the cross examination
OF counsel for the defense.
Miss Una Dudley, one of the nurses
WHO attended Mrs. Brouwer testified
that the sick woman had complained
of the bitter taste of the peptomized
milk prepared for her by the defend
ant. Attorney Wilson of counsel for
the defense drew from the witness the
statement that she was aware when
she testified that the peptomized pow
ders often had bitter taste when they
We're allowed to stand for considera-
BILE time.
Under scathing cross examination
conducted by Wilson, Miss Dudley tes-
titled that she believed Brouwer had
deliberately prolonged his wife's illness
in order that she might more readily
succumb to the effects OF minute dose
of poisoning.
Miss Dudley is a demure, soft voiced
little woman, and much of her testi-
mony was inaudible to many in the
courtroom.
Miss May Lippincott, who also cared
for Mrs. Brouwer in the capacity of
nurse, testified that she had seen DR..
Brouwer take two powders from sec
tion of his medicine case in which he
was accustomed to keep strychnine
powders and prepare a hypodermic
which he asked her to administer to
his wife. This, the witness said, she
had declined to do. On cross eXamina
tion Miss Lippincott said she could not
swear that the tablets were taken from
the strychnine section of DIR. Brouwer's
medicine case.
Miss Lippincott declared she threw
away medicine prepared by the doctor
rather than administer it to the pa
tient. Miss Dudley had a disagreeable
experience at the hands of Mr.. Wilson,
but she told straightforward story.
Her attempt to rehearse the scene in
the Brouwer household when the doc
tor and~hs wife, We're discussing an
other woman, quarreling over his
friendship for her. it has been alleged,
was cut short by the court, who re-
fused to admit testimony along this
line.
DR.. H. II. Cate. who signed the death
certificate ascribing Mrs. Brouwers
death to acute Brights disease, denied
emphatically that he and DR.. Brouwer
had acted in collusion in connection
with the certificate and said that the
defendant did not even know that the
witness had made out a certificate un-
til 1t was handed to him.

Mrs. Mary ludWigs, of Barnegat,
Wants Lawyer to Explain
Where $4,000 Went.
HER HUSBANDS ESTATE
Mrs. Ludwigs Was Appointed Admin
istratriX i'm 1900 and Employed the
Former New Brunswick Lawyer to
Settle Up the Estate-Says She
Turned Over $1,000 to BE Invest
ed, and Wants Him to Give Account
Special to the EVENING NEWS !:

Special to the EVENING NEWS:
TRENTON, Oct. 11.-Howard Mac
Sherry, a member of the New Jersey
yer of New Brunswick, has been
made the defendant in a suit in the
court of chancery brought by Mrs.
Mary Ludwigs, nearly seventy years
old who lives in Barnegat. Mrs
Ludwigs has brought the proceed
ings to compel MacSherry to account
for moneys he is alleged to have re-
ceived from the complainant. The
moneys were from the estate of the
husband of the complainant, of which
she is the Administrative. According
to the bill filed in the court of chan
Ludwigs has also brought a second
suit against MacSherry charging him
with failing to account for about $5,-
600 left to her by her husband, and
which the complainant says he induc-
ed her to turn over to him to invest
for her. Mrs. Ludwigs was appoint
ed administrative in 1900 by the sur
rogate of Richmond county, New
York. At that time she says she
retained Mr.. MacSherry, who advised
her that for the proper administra-
tion of the estate it would be best to
turn all the property over to him and
to give him power of attorney. This
Mrs. Ludwigs sets forth she did.
The estate turned over according
to the bill, included SALE in cash, two
mortgages for $500 and $500, re-
spectively, and a third interest in
the bark Tillie Baker, of the value
of about 1900. She charges that in
his capacity as attorney MacSherry
collected $4,000 on the mortgages
and further sum of 81 900 for the
share in the Tillie Baker. She al
leges upon information that he also
collected other sums of money belong
ing to the estate, but charges that
he has refused to furnish her with
any statement and accounting or to
turn over the moneys, investments,
securities, income and interests now
in his possession.
The bill recites that under the law
of New York 1t is incumbent upon
the complainant to account for the
moneys coming into her possession
and that on account of the action OF
MacSherry, it is impossible for her to
do so and discharge her duty as ad-
ministratriX. She, therefore, asks the
court to direct an accounting.
Mr.. MacSherry is now practicing
in Jersey City.
