Newark yesterday from counsel I'm the
case OF Nathaniel II. Tooker and others
against the estate Of Henry o. Heve-
meyer and the National Sugar Refining
Company of New Jersey form OF de-
cree which counsel believed would meet
the decision recently made by the Vice
chancellor In the case.
The suit was to recover Sl0,OOO,OO0 OF
common stock OF the corporation. which
Il was asserted had been Issued to Mr..
Havemeyer without consideration at the
time OF the formation of the company.
The decision was I'm favor Of the COM
plainants, who are holders OF preferred
stock. The decree as presented called
for the cancellation of the stock In
question. This did not meet the view OF
the court. who said that the Court Of
Errors had decided In a similar case that
the stock should be retired, not can
celled.
The vice-chancellor said he would ac-
cept the paper. but would not promise to
sign IT. He Is about to start on his va
cation and will hold the matter under
advisement until September.

BRIDGES TOO FAR AWAY
Aldermanic Committee Has
Long Session Without TAX
ing Any Action.

The martyrdom that some men-and
one woman-will endure for duty's sweet
sake was demonstrated yesterday when
the hearing called by the pushcart COM

o'clock in the morning prolonged Itself,
despite the hungry backward gazes or
some of the city fathers, beyond 1 o'clock,
beyond Q o'clock, even unto the hour OF
2i7.
The woman In the case was Mrs. Julian
Heath. president Of the Housewives
League, who spoke for the housewives OF
Harlem, and as Mrs Heath made the
shortest speech, by stop watch count no
blame for the aldermens suffering diges'
ton can be laid a. her door.
And there wasn't any row TO cheer the
anxious onlookers until about $40, when
small man, announced as an editor OF
an East side newspspe with voice tha'
reverberated from the rafters OF the au'
dionce chamber denounced Alderman Lee

Tho said orator had been booming along

The Federated Citizen pedlers, accord
ing to their various spokesman, want
permanent market buildings. where they
will be protected from the rain and the
hail and tho snow. and until such are
furnished they want to keep on plying
their trade in the streets.
Morris d. Waldman. manager OF the
United Hebrew Charities. then asked
them where they could get better pro-
lection from the elements than under the
bridges, which the aldermen had said
they were considering as sites for the
markets.
The main objection that the pedlers ad.

Alderman Brush, chairman OF the com.

threw off his coat, swept the cover
from the stand, found a pack of cards,
and played solitaire till the first pallor
of dawn announced the new day.

miles he had come, across three bleak,
cold, binding deserts, on camels, in
trains, on camels again, night and day,
day and night, across the %soundless,
yellow plains. Allah was good to the
true believer. The night was chill,
but certain fires warmed his blood. All
day long he had followed the accursed,
lying giaour, but never ono had he
wandered into the native quarters of

nothing in particular to get up for. In
fact, after having drunk his breakfast

So much depended upon his getting
