Y en- tanto que Nicolof parecia des
ligarse por complete del proceso, no
querer ocuparse de el, no hacer nun
ca la menor alusi6n, sus amigos no
cesaban de impulsar los trabajos del
iuzgado aportando cuantos infor-
ms podfan recuger. Por otra parte
mostraron,e tan a6rmativos acusan-

de la opinion pdbli;a, el juez y el CO.
ronel Ragenof decldieron practicar
un nuevo reconocimiento en- la venta
de la Cru:-Roto.
Este reconocimiento tuvo lugar ell
dia 5 de Mayo.
Ell juez Kerstorf, el mayor Verder,

Y esta observation probaba que
el mayor no ponia en- duda la cul lpa-
bilidad del professor y, por ende, la
inocencia del ventero. NADIA habia

familia Johausen empezaba a tener,
como vulgarmente Sc dice, el santo
de espaldas. En- la lucha que contra
el professor venian sostenlendo Sc les
escapaba Ia victoria. Las armas te;-
m!bles que su od!o no habia dudado
en- eSgrimir quebrabarse entire sus

tai vez no fuese pagada su vencl-

para arruinar su enemigo politico:
Lo cierto es que la opinion pdbli-
ca, la gente sensata ajena a las paslo-

dijo ell juez.
Primera mente fue examinada la

Ademas, los agentes alojados en-
Ia venta afrmaron que nadie hab!a
intentado abrirla. Desde que estaban
de servicio no habian dejado un ms
tante la casa.
La habitaci6n estaba sumida en-
una profunda obscuridad.
El cabo Eek abri6 de par en- par la

Empez6 el examen hecho, por los
agentes, bajo la direction del cabo

minucioso cuidado: pudie:a suceder
que Kroff hubiera enterrado al pie
de un arbol ell producto del robo, en-
case de haberlo el cometldo.
Fueron inuti!es las pesquisas.
En- ell armario del posadeco no sc
encontraron mas que unos cuantos
billetes, todos de valor inferior a los
que Pooh llevaba en- su cartera.
Y entonces el mayor Verder, lie
vando al juez aparte, lie d:jo:

The origin OK Insurance surveying
and map making is shrouded in some
uncertainty. Probably the system
started In the city Of London in i1So'
when certain insurance companies
endeavored to devise scheme where
by their risks could be so apportioned
as to prevent the failure OF COM
pany in the case OF a disastrous con
fsagration. About this time MT.
Thomas Leyerton. who was connected
with the Phoenix Fire Insurance Com
pany II London, prepared a plan OF
the centra, part % the city and In
IL colored each district In such way
that he could tell Immediately the
character OF every building In the
territory that had been mapped out
The beginning OF the system IN New
York city was largely due 20 the ener-
e ami foresight OF Mr.. George 4.

weddino Fees In Now York.

Large wedding tees are rare, even
In New York Fees OF $50 and 800
are considered large. The ~ 900 fee.
when L makes its appearance, usually
goes TO the rector of wealthy con-
gregation who enjoys salary OF
$4,000 to $4,000 year. Larger fees
are sometimes given. The man of
wealth. actuated by high regard for
his pastor and friend. occasionally
aives his check for $4,000 or $4,000
under the guise of a wedding fec. He
wishes to help the minister, and
knows the money would not be ac-
cepted under any other circumstances.
Such gifts, It is needless to say, are
extremely rare. New YORK
has few clergymen whose marriage
fees average $1,000 a year. The pas
tor of large Presbyterian church on
Broadway has estimated that his fees
amount annually to $1,000. These are
