ambuscade, in which he was driven at
Guyana last week, where he lost over
100 killed, Colonel Dorante on Sunday
led his men from their place of refuge
with the evident intention of avoiding
the mountain trails, where the chances
OF another ambush by the insurrectos
were plentiful.

for several reasons. The wives and
families of many of our men are shut

be killed by the soldiers if we made
an attack. We have been able to use
our forces to better advantage in the
field, and had no desire to tie up a

SNOWLESS BLIZZARD
SWEEPS OVER NEWARK,

A very live brand of old-fashioned
downright winter struck Newark last
night and today. 1t had in 1t the sting
of the cold snap and the whip of the
wintry gale, and it lacked only heaps
of snow to make 1t a regular blizzard.
The temperature went as far down as
II degrees at o'clock this morning.
and it was mighty shivery around
20 at o'clock. The sun came
out and the wind stopped swirling dur
ing the later hours of the day. but the
cold snap was still snappy and the
mercury never could climb above 20
degrees. which 1t reached just after IL
o'clock
More of the same kind of weather is
promised for tonight and tomorrow
fair and still cold, with variable winds.

Vice-Chancellor Stevens decided today
against John Morecraft, one of her

James had brought suit.
The grievance of James was that
John had shown more craft" than al
lowed by law, in that he had managed
to secure the conveyance of the prop
erty involved to himself II Ia on
Forty-sixth street. near Avenue A,
Bayonne
James's story at the time was that
John got possession of the property in
order that a judgment for s630.62, Sc
cured by James against the aunt could
not be collected He also claimed that
he had made an agreement with his
aunt to care for her until her death. in
return for which he, James. should get
the house and lot.
Mrs. Allen died December . last at
the age of So.
