urdoy, He Points Out.

Grover Cleveland Fuller. at one time
famous Jockey. yesterday called un-
true a news item printed Sunday morn
ing in THE New YORK HERALD saying

tody Saturday when they found him
smoking opium in a Chicago den.
Fuller declared yesterday in the Of
fices of his attorneys. Halligan. Henkel
&c Ludden, 7ss Broadway. that he has
not been in Chicago in three years.
Friends met him on Broadway, he said,
and pointed out the news item to him
Sunday morning. The item. he said. was
based either on misinformation or was a
deliberate act of malice on the part of
some one who misrepresented himself as
Fuller
An equity suit is pending In the Su-
preme Court in which Fuller seeks to re-
cover 100000 damages from the Jockey
Club for injuries received when riding a

Supreme Court Justice A. v. s. Coch-
rane of Hudson is mentioned as success
sor to the late Judge Emory A. Chase

Gov. Miller aue the following COM

he served on the Court Of Appeals:
Judge Chase devoted himself for many
years to the laborious work Of the bench
He served In all Of the court and his
work was characterized by great indus
try and high judicial ideas. He had a
thorough understanding Of the law, and
the bench has lost one of It's most useful
members. I served with him for time
on the Court of Appeals and no one could
serve with him without having a high
regard for him as a man and the highest

MAN WAVING A GUN
MAKES COP RETREAT
Latter Finally Seizes Weapon,
Which Is Found Unlooded.

Mrs. Marie Culbos of $40 West Twen-
ty-frst street went into the West Twen-
teth street police station last night and
told the lieutenant that when she tried
to serve her husband. Jose. with a sum-
mons for beating her. he drew a revol-
yer and chased her from the house,
threatening to kill her If she continued
to annoy him
Patrolman John Finnegan was sent to
arrest Culbos, and came upon the man
sitting on his stoop. Culbos ran into
the hallway as soon as he saw Finne-
gan. and when Finnegan followed he
thrust revolver against the policeman's
stomach. Finnegan backed out of the
house, but as soon as he reached the
street he wrenched the gun from Gull
boss grasp and knocked the man un-
conscious with his club.
A large crowd gathered when Finne-
gan started to the station house with his
prisoner. and many of them shouted
Lynch him !" Finnegan procured the
aid Of several men, however, and took
Culbos to the station house. where he
was charged with attempted felonious

Both Parties Must Meet to
Nominate Successor to Judge
Emory A. Chase.
COST is ABOUT S25O,OOO
Democratic State Committee
Meets Thursday-Republi-
cans Await Call.

The death OF Judge Emory A. Chase
will make It necessary for the political
parties to meet in State conventions this
fall to name candidates to succeed him
as Associate Judge Of the Court of Ap-
peals. 1t is estimated that the convening
OF the Republican and Democratic con-
ventions may cost those who attend the
convention about $25o.000. The expense
tc the State will not be great
The electoral law Of last winter re-
storing the State convention has no pro-
vision for filling vacancies in off years
and State committee officials see no
other course than to call a regular State
convention.
The Republican convention under the
recently fixed basis will have about
1900 delegates. The size Of the Demo-
cratic convention will be determined by
the State committee on Thursday, when
1t will issue the call for the State con-
vention and for all the judiciary con-
ventions.
The Republican State committee will
call a special meeting to name date
to issue the call. Under the law the
conventions must be held between Sep
tember 90 and 81. AS the Republican
judiciary conventions have already been
called for September 20. 1t Is probable
the State convention will be fxed for
September "a.

OFF; SEVERAL
Court Finds Law Applies Only
to Persons Attempting
to Sell Narcotics.

Justice John j. Freschi. in Special
Sessions yesterday discharged half a
dozen men and women prisoners who had
been charged with having In their posses
sion contraband habit forming narcotic
drugs. The Justice explained that at
present. apart from the Federal statute.
there is no law in this State under which
such persons may be prosecuted unless
the drugs found In their possession be
for purposes of sale.
During the last session of the Legfs-
lature." said Justice Freschi. 'the old
law under which these prisoners could
have been prosecuted was repealed and
a new law coinciding with the Federal
statute was framed, but Gov. Miller
vetoed this act. Since then the police
have been making arrests under Section
126 of the Sanitary Code. But there Is
no power to prosecute them under that
section. which applies only to persons
having In their possession habit forming
drugs for the purpose of SALE"

at the time this situation arose, when the
