somebody to look over the files of the

of the voyage was made in the Post at
the time. Several days later. when
the steamer had returned from
Albany. Robert Fulton, its INVENTOR
sent letter to the Post prlehS
describing the trip and modestly mop
inc that such boats might be made
useful to the country. There was TO
interview, no pictures, and no ext d
editions to celebrate the successful
VOYAGE of a craft that was destined 70

Rut the case of the first steamboat
was no exception to the rule that most

are not at first recognized at their true
Importance. 1t takes the perspective
of many years. often generations, for
them to be seen in the proper light.

STABBED OVER
HEART WHILE
IN A QUARREL
Employees at Cable Works Be-

Led To Blows.
WOUND NOT SERIOUS.

A stabbing affair occurred at the
Standard Underground Cable Works
yesterday afternoon between Domi-
nick Colochie, an Italian, and Andrew
Moreska. a Slav AS near as can be
learned the two men became engag-
ed in an argument, which soon be-
came heated. Hasty words lead to
blows and Moreska, seizing a wrench,
attacked Colochie. The Italian then
is said to have drawn knife and
stabbed Moreska over the heart.
The other employees rushed up and
soon parted the men. 1t was seen that
Moreska was not seriously injured
although the wound bled profusely
He was taken to the Office of DR.. w.
E. Ramsey, where he received medi-
cal attention. Later he was able to
walk to his home.
The police were notified this morn
ing about the affair and unless the
wound should result seriously, it is
thought no arrests win be made. At
the plant this morning the officials
freely discussed the affair and tsat-
ed that neither of the participants
was badly injured.

DELAY IN NEW
BOUNDARIES.
Owing to the Severe weather the
Changes For the Schools
Were Not Made Today.

The new boundary line for schools
Nos. 5 and 6 was to have gone into
effect today, but on account of the
weather and the number of teachers
i'll, Superintendent Shull has decided
to wait until Monday before he makes
the change
According to the present plans.
eighty-five pupils will be transferred
from school No. 6 to school No. S,
and forty pupils from school No. to
school No. 5.
The new boundary line is as fol-
lows: North of the Lehigh Valley rail-
road tracks, out Sutton street to
Compton street, out Compton street
to Pacific avenue, and out Pacific ave.
nue. to the cemetery.
The reason for changing the boun-
dary line is because at the present
time all the rooms in school No. 6
are crowded and at school No. there
is plainly of room.
Superintendent Shull said this
morning that Leon & Roessler had
completed their contract and that the
eight new rooms at school No. 5 were
all fitted with new desks and seats
Six rooms at school No. have also
been refurnished, two by D. Wolf &

ing by both district attorney and de-
fense, six men have been relieved from
serving after taking their places in
the jury box.
Two jurors-No. 4, David S. Walker,
and No. 8, Louis Haas--were excused
after a conference on motion of Dis
trict Attorney Jerome.
Then three more were found, making
total of eleven again.
The first new juror, who took the
twice vacated seat, No. 4, is Oscar A.
Pink, salesman for box factory.
The second, who took seat No. 8, is
Wilbur Il. Steele, a manufacturer.
The court excused juror No. IL, Hea.
ry I. Kleinberger. He has heart trou-
BILE and feared he could not stand the
strain of the trial.
The last juror chosen was Joseph B
Bolton, a clerk. y
1t was announced that another of tl@
jprors already chosen would be object
ed to by Mr.. Jerome before the trial
begins.
The trouble with Haas and Walker
appears TO be that they are young alh6

the women in the case. Haas is | /;
candy salesman He has liberal ide.hs
and is well known to many on tho
Bowery who enjoy the friendship ot
Daniel O'Reilly of counsel for the d'h
fense. Walker is son of John Bril-
ben Walker, the millionaire publisher
and automobile manufacturer, aud has
Broadway acquaintance that is quite
friendly to Mr.. O'Reilly. Mr.. Walkea
at the time of his examination admit
ted that he had known Stanford White
and had met Harry Thaw.
Neither Walker or Haas could Offer
an explana ton for the courts action
in ordering their discharge. and Wal.
xer especially appeared to be taken by
surprise
1t is believed that the twelfth juror
will be secured early this morning, but
the uncertainty as to the term OF srrv
ice of juror now sitting on the trial
panel was so strong that predictions
are all but worthless.
District Attorney Jerome announced
for the first time that he had decided
not to make the opening address to the
jury. He will turn the task over to his
assistant Francis +. Garvan, who has
had immediate charge Of the case evei
since the night Of the roof garden
