Inspection by Coal Oompaf1es.
PHILADELPHIA, April 1.-THE Pennsyl-
vania Railroad to-day made its expected
move to prevent accountants from inspect
ing its books and papers in the interests Of
the suit brought by the Mitchell Coal and
Coke Company the International Coal and
Coke Company and the Webster Coal and
Coke Company, who charge the railroad
with illegal rebating to rival companies in
which Pennsylvania Railroad officials are
interested and with unlawful distribution
of cars. Notwithstanding the Pennsyl-
vania's move1 counsel for the other COM
panies believe hat they can at once force
an inspection of the railroads books.
The move of the Pennsylvania was made
to-day by its general solicitor, Francis I.
Gowan, who filed with Clerk Bordbeok Of the
United States Circuit Court an application
for an appeal to the United States Court Of
Appeals from the order of the lower Fedora |
court compelling the railroad company to
open its books and papers TO the inspection
OF auditors OF the complainant companies.
The appeal was granted. The Court OF
Appeals does not sit until October.
Former District Attorney George 8.
Graham and Joseph Gilfllen, who represent
the complainant firms, say that they can
prevent the delay.
we think that we can prove that the

DR.. Fulda, responding to three loud

BIG BALLOON DOES NOT GO UP.
Count de La vaulx Would Not Risk IL in
the Gusty winds.


the Gusty Winds.
Count Henri de la Vaulx did not make
his ascension in the big balloon Centaure at
Pittsfeld yesterday. The balloon was sent
up to Pittsfeld on Friday and the Count
and members OF the Aero Club followed
with the intentionof going as far as Lossible
II the weather was favorable. The Count
wanted to reach Boston or the coast. The
Centaure is the largest OF the Counts three
balloons and it takes $1,000 cubic feet OF
gas to initiate 1t. This is about twice the
capacity of the Orient and three times the
capacity of the Ludion. The Centaure is
the largest balloon ever inflated on his
continent and it takes considerable sdl to
handle it.
The balloon was partly inflated at Pitts
field and then the Count suddenly decided
to debate 1t and not to make an ascension.
This action caused some comment on the
part OF the spectators, who declared that
the conditions were favorable to an asoen-
sion, but the Cou Mt would not risk his bal
loon.
Homer Hedge, the president Of the Aero
Club; Augustus Post, the treasurer, and
Altar r. Hawley were to accompany the
Count. As soon as the balloon was empty
of gas and packed away the Count and
members Of the club returned to the city.
Cortlandt Field Bishop, who had Count
de Ia Vaulx to dinner last night, said, speak
ing for the Count:
THE balloon Centaure is not owned
by the Aero Club, but by Count de la Nsulx,
The Count had intended making an ascen-
sion with his largest balloon, but he de-
cided that the wind was too gusty. 1t
would have made it not only. difficult but
dangerous to try to attach the basket to
so big a bag under the conditions and the
Count did not care to risk losing his balloon.
He has had more experience In ballooning
than any one else who was there. and his
experience should count for something.
In France, whore ascensions are everyday
affairs, the balloons are inflated in sheds
and the baskets attached under cover.
1T was decided to return to New York
because the weather predictions for to-
morrow are wind and rain and the Count
said he would wait until some time next
week when the wind was more steady
before making the ascension in the Cen
taure,p

MURDERED IN HER HONE.
A Knife Placed In Old Mrs. WrIght's Hand
After She was Dead.

NEW BRUNSWICK, April l4.-Mrs. Rachel
Wright, aged S., was found dead on the
floor Of her home on Division street, Old
Bridge, this morning. Her throat was cut
and a bloody knife was found in her lifeless
hand, but there were blood marks all about
the place, which would indicate that she
was not alone when she died. The crime
was committed in the centre of the village.
There are a dozen houses within a stones
throw of the one occupied by Mrs. Wright.
The body was discovered by little Willie
Boice, who lives next door. Mrs. Wright, who
was nearly blind, lived alone, and the Boioes
we're accustomed to send milk over TO her
every morning. When the boy went this
morning he found the doors open and going
in saw Mrs, Wright's body on the floor Of
her sitting room.
Dr. j. c. Crandall says the wound could
not have been inflicted by the woman her
self. He thinks the knife was placed in
her hand by the murderers before her flesh
became rigid.
None. Of Mrs. Wright's near neighbors
heard any kind Of a disturbance during the
night. Mrs. Weights body was fully
dressed.
S,;J, Treat, who keeps the Old Fridge
Hotel, says lie saw ii couple of trsmps prowl-
ing about his place shortly after 10 o'clock
last evening, He ordered them away and
they walked up Division street toward Mrs..
Wright s home. Mr.. Treat heard the dogs
barking vigorously up that way afterward.
but heard no other kind Of a disturbance.
IL is strongly suspected hat the traInps
burst IN upon Mrs. Wright and killed her,
after trying to eXtort money.
Mrs. Wright had no enemies about the

AFFAIR.

Not In the Tong war, but just an itaIIan
AFFAIR.
Chinatown's inhabitants thought for a
few minutes last night that the war Of the
tongs again had broken out. Two shots
were heard at Mott and Bayard streets
and, with one impulse all in the neighbour
hood scurried to cover. Not ten feet from
where the shots were fred stood Roundsman
O'Connell and Policeman McHale Of the
Elizabeth street station.
One of the bullets whistled rast the
roundsman's head and the two policemen
whirled around just as a young Italian, a
smok ing revolver in his hand, made a dash
away from a group on the corner. O'COn-
nell captured him before he had gone a
dozen steps.
Another Italian was standing in the
group moaning with pain and holding his
right wrist, through which the other bullet
had passed. AS soon as il was seen that
the Chinese were not doing the shooting
the crowd became so large that the police
men had to fight their way to the station
ouse with the two men.
The wounded Italian said he was Luigi
Albaneze. 40 years old, a pedler, Of 70 Mott
street. He said ne did not know his as
saiIant and that he was trying to persuade
his brother-in-law to go to his home in
Brooklyn when the prisoner stepped be-
tween them and began to thoot at him
The prisoner said he was Amatto Mum

FOR NON-PARTISAN judges.
EN-COmmIssIOner re dneId Urges the Merits
Of Hurd and .BInCkmar.

~ NnuTu AUu .hluVNUIHN'
Strong personal and financial support, it
is said. has been accorded to the movement
for a non-partisan judiciary in Brooklyn.
Eight Judges are to be elected TO the Su-
preme Court in the Second district, and a
campaign of vigorous character is to be
wa9ed during the next two weeks.
Space has been taken in all the trolley
and elevated cars and on all elevate rail-
road stations in Brooklyn and Staten Island
for posters proclaiming the necessity OF an
Embossed judiciary" and this week large
posters will be placed on 1000 bill boards
throughout Long Island.
William c. Redfeld, former Commits
sioKer Of Public Works and vice-chairman
Of the Citizens Judiciary Nominators
(called Citizens to distinguish them from
the New York movement of the same kind,
announced last night that though the
Republicans had Endorsed six of the eight
nominees Of the Citizens movement most
strenuous efforts would Re made to elect
the " who were left Of and thus vindicate
the full purpose OF the Nominators.
-Ex-Judge William B. Hurd, Dr.. and
Abel Z. Blackmar. candidates on our ticket
for the Supreme Court, were turned down
by the party conventions for no reason that
appeals to fair minded men," said Mr..
Redheld. The refusal Of the Republicans.
who accepted the principle Of our movement.
20 nominate our entire ticket was an ex-
hibition OF the sort OF politics which makes
our movement OF vital importance.
The public should know and cons ider
we'll why these men were turned down.
and who did it. Ex-Judge Hurd is a Demo-
crat. but when he was on the county bench
he did not zee why he should deliver pat
ronage for political reasons. There C an be
I little doubt that the political opposition to
! Judge Hurd ia due to his independence and
| fearleesness while on the bench. II il
another ease Just like that Of Judge DAILY.
MIR. Blackmar's record il likewise of the
highest order, and that he was rejected
was due to his activity in public service
There ia nothing more conspicuous in his
record than his fight for direct primary
nominations. As chairman OF the COM
mittee OF si6ty-three he was principally
instrumental in getting the Republican or
ganization OF Brooklyn committed to that
reform. This was a good reason for in
dorsing him, not for turning him down
for a political favorite.
The issue presented is one vital "a
I Brooklyn's interests, as we'll az those Of the
whole judicial district. Citizens who want
their property protected, and who con.
denim the making Of a political football out
OF our courts. can find plenty to think of in
inquiring why Judge Hurd and Mr.. Black.
mar were refused an Endorsement. The
principle that refused them this nomination
on the tickets Of the old line parties is viciou
in the extreme
