 Case Went Over Again.

There was another hearing in the probate court to-day on the will of the late Mrs Catherine Killoughey of James street. Mrs Mary Phelan her alleged sister is contesting the will on the grounds of undue influence and that she was incompetent to make will at the time it was drawn up.
 At the last hearing Attorneys Church and Reid, counsel for Mrs Killoughey requested Father Gleeson one of the benefciaries under the will to bring in all the papers of in- terest to the will since it was drawn up, such as bank books and bills. Father Gleeson to-day said he did not bring these papers upon the ad- vice of his counsel Attorney Lynch. Judge Lowe sad it would make no particular difference anyway if they were brought in and on that ground he though they might as well be in troduced. Yet he was not particular
 MT Lynch had no objection to bring them in only on the ground of principle. He did not think the other side was entitled to them and that was all. After some desultory argument the matter went over again.

HlGHSERVICEnYDRANT
Another Installed at Corner o1
 Baldwin and Washington St.

Superintendent Kennedy or the water department is installing an other hydrant on the high service. This one will be located at the corner of Baldwin and Washington streets. The one installed at Fair mount and Washington streets has been tested and found very satls- factory, throwing water 2S5 feet from an inch and three-quarter noz- gle, which is as good service as can be rendered on the low service by the steamer. It shoots three streams almost as high as the cross on the tower of St Francis Xavier church. This furnishes pretty good idea Of the value of the East Mountain reservoir, which for a time was looked upon as of little or no ac- count. After all, it must be admit ted, that when Nelson J. Welton went out east and discovered that spring which supplied the city for thirty years, and now meets the re- quirements of residents on the high hills he did a good thing for Water bury, and when the next hydrant Is being tested on the service he ought to be invited to be present and see what old East Mountain is capable of doing.

SETTLED FOR $50
Antonio Valerie Violated ihe
 Liquor Ordinance Yesterday.

Crowds of men passing in and out of a suspicious looking door near the Auditorium attracted the attention of Officers Joseph R. Mccarthy and Sam uel c. Walsh yesterday afternoon. One time the officers thought they had a big house on their hands and they approached with the idea of landing all inside, but sentinel gave the alarm and the crowd got away by rear entrances The place the police were watching was Antonio Valerio's saloon at 284 South Main street. A few hours later the officers took up position in the rear of the premises and for half an hour there was noth- ing doing. They were about to give up their vigil as futile when two men came along and, not seeing the officers went up to the rear door of the sa- loon. Some conversation took place between the men inside and those out side and then two glasses of beer were handed out As the men were raising the tempting draught to their lips the officers dashed up and tried to get in. Valerie knocked down Officer Walsh with a blow. In a mo- ment the officer was on his feet and with blow of his stick stretched the fellow who had struck him. A wound half a dozen inches long was laid across his forehead and if the fellow is not branded for life he is lucky. It took a half dozen stitches to close the wound. He was able to get around this morning and settle for $50.
 The so-called Polish club on South Main street was the object of official attention from the police last even- ing. The men who are supposed to run it now are Frank Romaniski and Frank Sckuski. The presence of the police in the place caused a stampede, though no efforts were made to arrest anyone but the alleged proprietors. Their case was called in the city court to-day and it went over for week. Romanski is charged with keeping place where liquor was reputed to be sold and Sckulski, the alleged bar tender, with dispensing it.

THOUGHT IT WAS DEATH CHAIR.
Negro Who Killed Policeman Fought
 Against Being Photographed.

New York, Nov. 1S.-William Morse. the negro, who murdered patrolman Edward J. Cavanagh of the Adams street station at Willoughby and Gold streets, Brooklyn, on Thursday night, was taken to the State street police headquarters Friday. His head was covered with bandages and he was lame-the results of the at tacks on him by the crowd that gathered when he was caught.
 When taken to the police photo graph gallery to have his portrait taken for the rogues gallery he got uneasy, and when seated in the metal chair facing the camera he thought he was about to be put to death by electricity. He gave yell and jumped from the chair and falling upon his knees begged the police to give him time to prepare for death. He said he wanted to see his aged father and mother, who were in Vir- ginia, before he died. He was picked up by the police and forced into the chair. At last his fears were over come and his picture was taken.
