asked for warrants for the arrest Of
Doyle and every one else who aided IN
capturing Pralls Island. He left just
before dinner hour without the orders.
Reports that Drake would attempt 20
seize PralPs Island with heavily
armed force some time between mid
night and daybreak to-day caused
Doyle TO send ten more watchmen TO
join the thirty already on duty.
One lone Drake guard, who was in
the cabin that the steam derrick holsted
off Prall's Island, recaptured three
square yards of the lost territory yes
terday, and held il until the tide drove
him away. He reached the island IN a
rowboat early in the morning, and be-
gan to stalk up and down the beach.
The thirty Doyle watchmen did not
modest him, fearing that charge Of
assault would follow. Until the tide
rose high in the afternoon. e bobbed
about over his narrow strip OF recap
tured land. Then he finally leaped in
to his rowboat. and left the waves TO
hold the ground he had been forced TO
abandon.

TRAGEDY OF AN INDISCRETION.

THE TRAGEDY or An INDISCRETION BY J.
W Brodie- lnneSs. l2mO. ~. 54j. The John
Lane Company.
The woman and her lover are off for
a stolen fortnight. The man has Dor
rowed the name of his friend. who is
also his secretary. A sudden catas-
trophe forces him 10 leave her for a
few days. And in his absence she dies
suddenly, stranger in a strange place,
identihable only as the wife of the
man whose name appears upon the
hotel register. And that man gets
into the tangle at that moment. Who
she is he does not know he must
bury her under his name, then trace her
husband. II is an ingeniously inYented
situation. which in the development
grows ever more complicated, ever
more bewildering. There is the hus-
band looking for his missing wife;
there are her friends growing sus-
picious. A charge of murder is
brought against him-the body IS that
of another woman, but the resemblance
sufices for those predisposed to see 1t.
And for many reasons the man who
caused il all is kept in ignorance OF
the tragedy in which the indiscretlon
ended. Plot. plot. and still more plot.
The author has woven 1t IN intricate
patterns and if here and there he has
recourse to coincidence, that is hardly
TO be wondered at.

how Cornelius Drscoll. window
cleaner. who had been his client. re-
ceivcd only $4,000 out OF n total of $751;
272 recovered from the Cadillac Hotel
Company for injuries sustained by a
fall
The justice was hearing argument on
a motion by Driscoll to direct Clausen
to turn over to him 1886, half of the
recovery, the lawyer having 5O-bO
contingent agreement with him. Dris-
coll complained that he had been in
duced TO accept $1,000 for his interest
just before the Court of Appeals
affirmed the judgments Of the Su-
preme Court and Appellate Division,
on the representation that he had a
small chance TO win in the highest
court. He said that William 7. Hope,

with him to Frank O. Burrdge, who
was willing TO advance the window
cleaner the $500 and accept therefor
his assignment of his claim.
Counsel for Clausen explained that
Clausen had received half the judg-
ment recovered as agreed, but knew
nothing about Driscolfs assignment
until after the affirmance Of the Judg-
ment by the Court Of Appeals. He was
then compelled to turn over TO Hope
and Burridge half of the $4,000 re-
covered.
Counsel for Driscoll said that
Clausen should have summoned Dris-
coll, when he learned from his clerk
Hope of the assignment, and made
efforts to have it set aside.
The court reserved decision.

his wife, told her he was twenty-seven,

upon she told him she would not have
married him if she had known he was

On the other hand, Weaverson said
yesterday. his wife gave her age as

was twenty-seven, and afterward

The great disappointment in his life,
said Weaverson, who was a witness for
Mrs. Frame, was his wife's determine

Weaverson earlier in the day denied
any such determination. His wife be
came so addicted to club life, he CON
tinued, that sometimes she used 10
sleep all night at the ST. Omar Club.
At such times he had negro boy cook

her husband had to cook his own meals.

These were about to be converted into

"Mos. of the restaurant managers
apparently seem 20 have little or no
regard for the fundamental sanitary
requirements" said Inspector Kear-
ney at the close of his second days
work "They permit their kitchens to
swarm with flies; they are careless
about garbage, and take no thought
for the necessity of proper ventlla-

"Here is On example of the lack Of
sanitation and disregard of patrons. We
