MAROON In RICHMOND
Po5cer GiUes out on Island-Pas-
sengers Fight Insects.

Thousands driven out OF Jersey by the new
LIQUOR law crossed by the Port Richmond and
Elizabeth ferries 20 Staten Island yesterday
adding 70 the usual crush across the municipal
ferry. Last night IL estimated that over
125,OOO persons had crossed the three ferries to
the island during the day.
Those who went TO the beaches and the interior
and depended on the trolley cars TO take them
home made the return very slowly. About
o'clock yesterday afternoon something went
wrong with the power of the Richmond Light
and Railway Company and grew worse until the
company had only three instead of six genera
tors In operation
At o'clock the company shut down some OF
the interior lines. leaving few thousand visit
ors marooned in interior resorts. Then the
southfeld Railroad which runs from Midland
TO South Beach, was shut down. 20 save power
for the circuits that had 70 be lighted. Even
this did not begin to solve the situation and it
was not long before the cars on the shore lines
were practically tied up Cars thronged with
passengers at midnight were stalled all along
the lines They were not only full and crowded
along the running board. usual, but had pas
sengers on the front platforms and on the roofs
Meanwhile the passengers fought mosquitoes
best they could. To add 20 the discomfort a
band of pickpockets operated all day at St
George on the cars and at the beaches. Every
little While complaint was made Of their opera
tions Pocketbooks and rolls disappeared so
frequently that squad of plain clothes men
was sent down from Mulberry street, and last
night were watching the crowds about st.
George. John Bond, Of West Brighton, who lost
$3.50 and gold watch at South Beach. was the
heaviest loser.
The conditions at St. George are excellent
from a pickpockets point Of view. There is
practically waiting room and everything Is in
confusion. owing 70 the destruction of the old
terminal to make way for the new one. One Of
the hardships yesterday was the stopping Of the
north shore cars at the Borough Hall. in Jay
street That made those wanting boats to walk
eighth of mile 70 the ferry. Passengers on
the south shore cars desiring TO transfer TO the
north shore cars could not do so when their cars
passed the north shore cars. but had to ride to
the ferry. Then II the inspector giving out
transfers did not see the passenger alight no
transfer was given. II one was given the pas

FURMAN LOSES.
Suit of j. A. BarkeIeW for $43.37
Goes Against Him.

The suit of j. A. Barlelew against
l.. Furman for amount of bill $43.37
for work done in Mr.. Furman's
house in Henry street, was up befc"o
Justice Mason Monday night. IT, u
was quite a crowd of people pre- ~
and even the sidewalk was full of
people, in front of the Justices Of
flee.
Mr.. Furman stated that he had al
lowed Mrs. Scully a months rent to
clean the house, which had been oc-
cupied by Italians.
1t was thought that SO was a very
small sum for cleaning a house in the
condition that house must have been
in. The colored man, who formerly
worked for Mr.. Furman is now in the
employ of Mr.. Furman's mother, Mrs.
Noah Furman. and is considered an
honest and truthful man. He stated
that Mr.. Furman told him on Mrs.
Furman's stoop, to get Mr.. Barkelew
TO do the papering and painting in
the house. Mr.. Furman denied hay
ing told him that. What made it APP
pear lldl lIlt WllllNoN as ltllllES lit
truth was the fact that he had moth
ing to gain by doing so and might
probably run the risk of losing his
position with Mrs. Furman.
Lawyer Coan was for Mr.. Furman
and he had considerable to say in re-
gard to the witnesses color and final
lily said: would you for one instant
believe that coon before you would
Mr.. Furman?"
Lawyer Lovely then took up Mr..
Barkelew's side of the case and OPP
ened out on Lawyer Coan, He be-
gan by saying that the witnesses skin
may be black but-etc., etc. speak
ing of him not being white and of his
character and good standing as a
man.
He referred to his not having
reached the height in his profession
that Lawyer Coan had, as counsellor,
but he'd quit the position if he had
TO use such talk to bolster up his
case. He went over Counsellor Coan
roughshod and there were some pres
nj who gloried in it. He said that
Counsellor Coan had a swelled head, 4
etc. 4
The jury was composed of Samuel
Locker, John O'Brien, Thomas Ril-
comens, Robert Thorpe, John White
and Michael Leary. The jury was
unanimous in favor of BarkeleT and
Mr.. Furman has to pay the bill of
$43.37 and costs. He said he would
appeal to the quarter sessions in
View Brunswick and it is said that he
has afTuarr Appealed. it is also said
that Mrs. Furman's workman, the
colored witness, will retain his posi-
ton. His name is Lewis Pitman.
