In 1910 he asked the; coun- cil for 60 or 70 feet of a walk. The request was granted, he claims, on the condition that he made the ex- cavation and furnished the material. He did so and this year he was charged up with $4.60. He claimed he was not entitled to pay that am- ount in view of the promise made by the council of 1910. The matter was referred to the Board of Works. COWIESONâ€"At the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. S.

Ryan, president of the International Bridge and Struc- tural Ironworkers’ Union. After the testimony of its 549th witness. the Government closed its case. and on its own motion had four of the forty-five defendants dismissed on the ground that the charges against them were not sustained. The men dismissed were: W. K. Benson, East Galloway. N.Y.. former president, of the Detroit Federation of Lahor. Moulton H. Davis, Westchester.

Mr. Ryan testified that neither he 'nor the executive bani members new of any money having been ex- pended by McNamara. for dynamiting urposes. All the letters written by im to business agents in various cities. which the Government charges contain veiled instructions about jobs to be blown up. Ryan said, simply referred to work upon which non- union men were employed and upon which it was desired to put union men. “Did you ever talk to Ortie E. Mc- Manigal about dynamiting, or tell him to change his appearance often'er. so he would not be recognized?” asked Attorney Harding. "I héxéiy knEw McManigal, and certainly never knew he was employ- ed as a dynamiter ior McNamara. or anyone else.” He stated he never had visited a vault in the ironworkers’ headquarters union, take Hockin’s place as head of the “dynamiting crew.” He denied he had urged vigil-ence in the union's strike called seven years ago and which is still on. in Indianapolis where nitrogTycerine ind dynamtie had been kept and he never had prOposed, as charged, that J.

New York, Dec. 2.â€"The story of eleven years of married life during which not a word was exchanged be- tween husband and wife is told in papers on file here in a separation suit in the state supreme court. The pair, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Mintz, were married in 1884. For thirteen years they lived happily together with their four children. Eleven years ago they quarreled. The dispute was over some trivial matter, it is said, but the wife declared that she would never address another word to her husband so long as she lived. He declared that the arrangement was satisfactory to him. Mrs. Mint: asserts that both adhered to the agreement. Seven years ago their daughter Dorothy died,.but even at the funeral services the vow of sil- ence was not broken. Mr. Mintz is now seeking a separation. To Go to Mount Clemens.

MARRIED FORESTERS MADE Last evening Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hepburn were tendered a surprise by the members of Courts Lindsay No. 181 and Star of Prosperity 731 I.O.F. when they visited their residence and made a pleasing presentation. Mrs. Hepburn was the recipient of a beau- tiful rocker and Mr. Hepburn a pair of slippers and a, neck scari. The pre- sentation was totally unexpected and Mr. Hepburn after recovering from his surprise acknowledged the gifts in a few well chosen words.

The conductor of a G.T.R. freight train was arraigned before the Pe- terboro police magistrate Friday morning charged with obstructing the crossing at Lock street on the 21st inst. for eight" minutes.

In a brief, pointed speech in the Reichstag yesterday, the Imperial Chancellor, Dr. Von Bethmann-Holl- weg, made this declaration, which is taken to mean unquestionably a warn. , ing to Russia, although Russia was . not named. All the party leaders, ex. '- cept the Socialist, who followed the chancellor, expressed approval of the Governments position. ‘ Herr von Kiderlen-Waechter, Secre- tary of State for Foreign Affairs, also won applause, when in replying to the references of the Social Demo- cratic leader, Herr Ledebour, to alleg- ed discord with Great Britain, he said: “These remarks offer a welcome oo- casion to state that during the whole late crisis our relations with Great Britain have been especially marked by mutual trust, which has not only brought about a most gratifying inti- macy in our relations, but has also performed good services towards an understanding among all the powers. Iâ€"vcwan express, the ceRain expéctation that they will gorgtinue to~do this.” The effect. of the speeches in the Reichstag yesterday was heightened last evening when it became known in Parliamentary circles that an agree. ment had been reached for a renewal of the Dreibund. Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg declar‘ ed that the belligerents in the present war did not dispute the right of the great powers to have a word to say in the final settlement of the Balkan question, in which their interests were all involved. He said the wishes of the powers would carry greater weight if they were presented collectively. Negotia- tions with that end in View were now proceeding and he hoped they would result successfullv. uermany, me 5310, nxe severai or )the other great powers, was interested in preserving Turkey as a. powerful economic and political factor. He was able, he said, to deny re- ports thai the great powers, or several of them, were planning the acquisition of Turkish territory as a. result of the war. It was assumed the Imperial Chancellor was referring to the report that England was about to proclaim a formal protectorate over Egypt. The vigorous tone adopted by the Imperial Chancellor surprised the House, which was expecting the usual diplomatic assurance that everything was going well. Forty Thousand Starving. London, Dec. 3.â€"The Eefia corre- spondent of The Times says: “There are 40,000 refugees at Saloniki, all in deplorable condition. After the arrival of the troops they were ejected from the mosques and other buildings and driven to the open spaces around the town, where they were without shel- ter, exposed to the cold and drenching rain, starving and wallowing in filth. Numbers died from exposure and hun- ger, while smallpox and other dis- eases had_ already appeared. The Turkish prisoners in the concentra- tion camps were living under similar appalling conditions. Although the Turkish Red Crescent was well equip- ped, the Turkish military hospital was in a terrible condition, without bandages, medicines or comforts. :. Truce Goes Slowly.

FELL INTO TWENTY 'g FOOT EXCAVATION One of the horses at work on the Sussex-st. storm sewer fell into the twenty foot excavation this morning. It was at work with a scraper filling in the ditch from the banks of earth at the side, and in some manner got so far down on the yielding slope that it slid all the way to the bot- tom, where it sat with its back up against the straight side of the ex- cavation, unable to move. Ropes were procured and fastened around its neck and under the tail, and a. team hauled the animal quick- ly out of the hole, none the worse for the experience.
