George c. Hazleton, ST.. father Of
New York awyer-playwright. who is a
lawyer with Offices in the Munsey build
ing. said today that he was entirely
confident that his son would be vindi-
Gated as soon as the charges were sifted.
He added that the charges were large
" inspired by the jealousy of a firm
employed by Mrs. Mabel Ludlam to
prosecute a former suit against Chan
non, in which she received a valuable
house in consideration OF dropping the
case. This firm became offended when
not employed in the present suit, says

HORSES REASONING POWER.

You make the statement that horse
has only instinct to guide him, and
cannot reason. | do not agree with
you. Coming down First avenue one
morning | noticed a team of three
horses belonging to a truekman named
Fitzpatrick, whose stable is on Thirty
first street, near First avenue, and
whose business is to supply the Second
avenue powerhouse with coal drawn
from the pen at Twenty-eighth street,
East river. 1t was the custom to leave
the track on the wharf at night; the
horses going to the stable on Thirty
second street, says the New York
Press. This morning these three horses
were on their way to the pen to get
their truek-two boys and large buck
skin-the buckskin leading with his
trace chain hooked to the bride of the
first bay and the trace chain of the
first bay to the bride of the second
bay; the driver on the walk on the east
side. the horses near the west curb.
On reaching the point where the TWEEN
0eth street car line tracks Join the
FIRST avenue, tracks. the buckskin
started to cross in the rear of First
avenue car, when around the corner
came Twenty-eighth street car. The
buckskin hesitated, then turned and led
his companions around the rear of the
Twenty eighth street car. Now. if in
stinct alone governed him, he knew he
hims If. could cross safely, hit he rea-
soned that those that he was leading
!. could not, and he led them safely.
