BUCKLEY MAY YET SAVE HIS LICENSE Clever Move of Hotel Keeper's Attorney dives Him Another Chance. THE PAPEKS DEFECTIVE Neglecied to State That Rev.

Georg, H. Peck is a Citizen of New Ycrk State Argument Before Judge Sutherland on Report. Hotel-keeper ohn A. Buckley made an-other desperate effort yesterday to save his liquor, tax certificate, which Keferee Horace G. Pierce had reported in favor ot revoking, on account of the evidence ob-tc'-ed by the Anti-Saloon League that liquor had been sold on Sunday in Buckley's hotel in violation of the Itaines law-Argument on the confirmation of the referee's report was heard by Judge Sutherland in chambers, Fahy Galligan appearing for the defendant, and Nelson E.

Spencer for the League. Mr. Galligan opened the argument by moving that the entire proceedings be dismissed on fhe ground that the papers in the case were defective inasmuch as they did not state that Rev! George II. Peck, who maae the complaint on behalf of the league, is a citizen of Kew York state. The court took the point under advisement, and then listened to the argument on the merits of the case.

If the actioa were being tried in court the omission in the papers might be waived, but there is some doubt as to 'the jurisdiction of the court where the case is heard in chambers; there is a strong chance that 3dr. Galli-gan's point is well taken, and that Buckley may get off scot-free after causing the Anti-Saloon League cons.uerabie expense and no end of annoyance. Judge Sutherland will hand down a decision on the point raised by the defendant's attorney after he has thoroughly examined the authorities in the matter. If the court decides in favor of Mr. Galligan, a decision will be unnecessary on the merits of the case.

But if he finds the point not sustained by precedent and authorities, he will go on to the question of the merits of the case. On the latter Buckley can expect only defeat in the face of the referees adverse report. BILLS INTRODUCED. Opera jn House lU" Mat 2:15 Eve. 8:15 aiwvt the gin mow Town.

William F. Butler, night operator in the Western Union office in this city, also goes on record with an imposing list of old and rare coins. He has American cents of 1793, 1799, 1809 and 1811 and half cents of 1803, 1804, 1804, 1.50G, 1S07, 1808, 1809, a "Feuchtwaner eagle" of 1837, known as one of the Andrew Jackson set of tokens issued in his controversy with the banks, a flying eagle of 1S50, and a full set of American copper coins from the first issue, 1793, down to the latest.

C27 Clinton avenue north. Major Jacob Spahu presided. Letteis from several kindred o'jtf-lewrt organizations were read, praising work of the local association, and urging its support of several proposed measures. Petitions were prepared at last night's meeting, to be circulated for signatures. They set forth the objections of tbe association to the existing state of affairs, and ask the cooperation of all who nre Interested in the movement.

These petitions can be seen at the county clerk's office, the city treasurer's office and also at the place of business of Frank J. Amsden. All who wish are Invited to sign them.

WILL BE RE-SENTENCED. Important Ruling of Justice Davy in Habeas Corpus Case. The writ of habeas corpus has been quashed by Justice Iavy In the case of Joseph Lockwood, whom Attorney Ira L. Ward endeavored to reletse on the grouid of an excessive sentence. The courr ru.fs that Lockwood must be held ly th sheriT cf Yates bounty, and re sentenced by Jvdge Knox.

Following Is tbe full text she court's decision: "The prisoner's discharge Is asked for on the ground that the court had no power under the statute to sentence him to the penitlary for more than one year. It is evident that the county judge exceeded his authority. I am inclined, however, to the opinion that the conviction Is still valid, and that the prisoner Is not entitled to his discharge. The writ, therefore, should be quashed and the prisoner remanded to the sheriff of the county of Yates in order that the county court may deal with him according to law." ALLEGED SHOWCASE BURGLAR. John Schuman, Supposed Accomplice in Wilson Robbery, Captured.

Chief Hayden yesterday received word from Tort leposlt, a town about forty miles from Baltimore, that John Schuman, said to be one of the trio of burglars who broke Into the showcase of I'awubroker Wilson, on Main street east, last December, had been arrested by the police of that place. Herbert May and George Hannan, the other two members of the trio, were arrested shortly after the crime and held for the grand Jury. Schuman left town before the oiDcers could get him. Chief Hayden traced him as far as Washington, where be again disappeared. The police struck the scent again, however, following him to Port Deposit.

Hayden furnished a description of the man to the police at that place, and yesterday he was taken Into custody. He wll be brought to this city by Detective McDonald, who left for Fort leposlt yesterday afternoon for that purpose. THE RATES PLEASE. Merchants Foresee Considerable Trade From Along the Falls Road. Tie merchants of Kochester feel jubilant because of the reduction In rates on the" New York Central railroad between Kochester and Lockport, brought about by the Chamber of Commerce.

Many of them have expressed themselves as welcoming the change, and feeling certain that much of the trade that has hitherto gone to Buffalo will now come here. One of the merchants said that he believed a week was a fair estimate of the amount of money that the people who came in on the Falls road because of the reduced rates would spend In Kochester. Another asserted that Kochesterlaus should not stop at this one victory, but go further and try to get some of the guests of the I'au-Amerlcan Exhibition. He believed Kochester admirably situated to do this. Just a nice run down here after tbe close of the exhibition at night.

Odd Fellows Meeting. Grand Master Frtesch, of Brooklyn, accompanied by Franklin P. Trourman, grand representative, of New York, visited Kochester last night and were met at the "odge rooms of Humboldt lodge, by representatives from all the lodges of the Odd Fellows in the county. The visiting officials made speeches and exemplified the secret work of the organization. Mothers' Meeting.

This week's mothers meeting at public school No. 20 Is to be held to morrow afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, not at the time previously announced. BILLS BEING PREPARED Some City Think Nesr Manager ill Consent to Reimburss the City A ay Want Many Future Favors. Considerable speculation is heard in municipal circles with reference to what may possibly be done by the Rochester ltaihvay Company in vcnneetion with the assessments which have been made against the company by the city, for the cost of the pavement between ii 'tracks and two feet outside of the These assessments the company has thus far refused to pay, despite the passage by the legislature of a law legalizing such assessments, and the prospective passage of a number of additional bills of similar character. The announcement made by the Demo- crat and Chronicle of the acquiring of a large portion of the railway company stock hf outside capitalists, and the further that the company would expend a large sum of money in improvements, has led some of the city officials to wonder if at least a part of the large sum that rumor says will be expended, will not be applied to paying up the paving assessments.

The old company vigorously contested the right of the city to compel it to pay for paving between its tracks and two feet outside of them. It is assumed, however, that the new stockholders are likely to show a disposition to share the expense of improvements on streets where their lines operate, with the city. It is pointed out that the company as formerly constituted was comprised largely of Kochester capitalists, and that the public was inclined to grant them favors that it would not as readily show strangers. This being true, and the new stockholders realizing the fact, they will recognize the necessity for securing public fa for in any attempts to obtain additional privileges. One significant fact that would seetn sustain such an assumption is that while the company had arranged to build a single track in Portland avenue from Clifford to North street this spring, when the new pavement is laid, since the advent of the outside capitalists there is a faint willingness shown to make the line a double-track one.

City Engineer Fisher, it is known, has continually urged the company to lay two tracks on that thoroughfare, and has also advised what is known as first-class construction. And regarding first-class construction, it is believed that under the new regime the company will provide only the best construction wherever future street improvements are made in streets where the company has its tracks. In the recent larger improvements where new pavements have been laid, the company has generally used this construction and laid seven or nine-inch girder rails on concrete foundation, but in a few instances, in I.yell avenue and on Kim street, the rails were not so heavy. The impression now prevails that only first-class construction will be provided by the company. One logical reason for believing thus is that there is so much suburban traffic to look forward to, through tbe proposed construction of electric roads to distant points.

With the organization of the company which OVsires to construct the electric line from thin city to Niagara Falls, and the incorporation this week of the company which desires to construct a line to tJcneva, the impression gains force that only the heaviest rails and best foundation will be satisfactory on the local company's lines, inasmuch ns the new suburban otupunies are very apt to operate their cars over the local company tracks to reach the center of the city. So far as the city is concerned, it much prefers the first-class construction. 'I he solid roadbed and heavy rails make the cars run smoother, and with the jar eliminated, the pavement is not injured. Fx-perience has demonstrated, espcciiiily where tracks are laid in asphalt, that with light rails, the bumping of the cars disturbs the rails and foundation, end cracks the pavement. Hut the position which the company will assume with regard to the payment of the paving assessments, is the more important as far as the city is concerned just now, and while it may continue to refuse payment, it is thought that a company controlled by foreign capital cannot afford to be arbitrary, when it may desire valuable concessions from the city in the future.

Whether it will recompense the city for the amount already paid to contractors by the city, on assessments which are covered by bills passed by the legislature last year, remains to seen, but in the meantime something like a quarter of a million dollars in additional assessments on improvements completed last year, will become due. Something over in assessments was covered by the bills passed last winter, and those, together with the additional improvement assessments will constitute a large amount due the city. The streets improved during the past year and the amounts assessed against the company, and which will le covered by the proposed bills, are as follows: Clinton avenue north from the railroad to Clifford street. Hudson avenue from Clifford to Norton street. Monroe avenue from Clinton avenue south to (Joodman street, $3 Central avenue from Clinton avenue north to river, Joseph avenue from Clifford street to Avenue 1.

North avenue from Weld street to North street, Elm street, Clinton avenue north from Main street cust to Andrews street, Main street east from University avenue to Circle street, Clinton avenue north from Andrews street to railroad, Caledonia avenue from canal to Plymouth avenue, Jay street from Child to Ames street, Clarissa street from Exchange street to river bridge. Ames street from Jay to Maple street, Emerson street from llack-us street to Deep Hollow, Looking Rochester Over. E. M.

OFFICIALS MAKE ANOTHER TOUR Visit Larjje Buildings to See if They Are Properly Supplied With Means of Escape in Case Fire, Another Inspection of buildings for the purpose of ascertaining their interior construction and to discover whether they are properly supplied with means for escape In case of fire, was mnde by Commissioner Casey, Fire Marshal Walter and Chief Malcolm and Battalion Chief Boone of the tire department, yesterday tftemoon. The officials visited St. Joseph's Orphan Asylum on Andrews street, where they found the conditions much the same as at the Jewish Orphan Asylum. Groat precautions Lad been taken by those in charge to provide adequate means for escape In case of the.

The management is not eutiririy satisfied with what has been done, however, as the officials were asked to express their opinion concerning certain additljnal means of escape, by the making of certain alteration and repairs to the building. The Williams Werner candy factory on CItntou avenue north was next visited. Ihe officials made a thorough Inspection of the building, and recommeuded some additional safeguards which the owners signified their willingness to provide at once. From there the officials Journeyed to the Home of Industry, for elderly women on Mala street east, a Catholic institution. Although the building Is comparatively new, its architectural arrangement presented a problem In the best arrangemeut of Are escapes.

Fire Marshal Walter, upon the return of the inspecting party, applied himself to devise a plan of rearrangement of some of the exits and corridors and the placing of escapes. To-day. he will send another man of experience In building, to look over the structure and suggest any changes that seem desirable. Together, they will devise some means of furnishing the building with letter safeguards, as It Is the opinion of the officials that something must be done at ouce. The tours of Inspection will continued, as the officials can find the spare time, until all of the large buildings of the city have been thoroughly gone over.

The Are chiefs note the Interior arrangements of each building, and In case of fire breaking out in any of them, will have a good Idea of how best to fight the fire and where to place ladders for entering the upper floors and rescue Inmates or fight the flames. STORY OF A RING. Mrs. Agnes Berrigan Caused Edward Tal. lahan'a Arrest for Stealing It.

Edward J. Callahan, of Xo. 13 Franklin square, 40 years old, was arrested yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Agnes Kerrigan, on Central avenue, and turned over to Officer Cahlll. Mrs.

Berrigan charged Callahan with petit larceny. In stealing a gold ring valued at 113 from her yesterday afternoon. Callahan Is a collector for Ir. Benford, and went to Mrs. Kerrigan's house, Xo.

42 Marrletta street, yesterday afternoon to collect a bill. Mrs. Kerrigan was not at home, and another woman asked him luto the house to wait. He waited and when Mrs. Berrigau returned home he made known the object of his call.

He left after bis business was transacted, and It appears that Mrs. Berrigan soon afterewards discovered her gold ring was missing. She started out and found Callahan on Central avenue and caused bis arrest. Callahan denied any knowledge of the theft. He was also Charged by the officer with intoxication.

Dog With Furious Rabies. A dog that was suffering with rabies of the furious form was put to death at the city pound yesterday morning, and the carcass sent to the health ofllco, where bis brain will be dissected. The dog belonged to John B. Hayd, of Xo. East avenue, and became very furious before taken to the pound.

At the pound the animal ran about the inclosure, snapping and biting, and tried to tear the plaster from the walls, with his teeth and claws. The pound attendants also captured a cocker spaniel, on Tuesday, and after killing It, sent the hotly to Health Officer Goler. The spaniel was not furious as was the dachshund owned by Mr. Hayd. Several cases of dogs with rabies have been reported ftt the health office, by veterinary surgeons, during the past few days, but In no instance has it leen learned that anyone has been Wtten by them.

Diamond Robbers May be in City.

ORPHAN ASYLUM FIRE THE VERDICT EMBRACES CRITICISM OF SEVERAL MATTERS. WHERE THE BLAME LIES Coroner Believes a Night Watchman Could Have the Lives of the Children and Others his Recommendations and I indings. Coroner Henry Kleindicnst announced yesterday his verdict in the case of the children and nurses who met death at the Rochester Orphan Asylum tire January 7th, or died ufterwards from its effects.

He finds that their death was accidental. The cause of the fire he was unable to discover.

That llvinau Sapcratone came to his leath at the Hahnenianu Hospital on the day of January lo, liRtl, from the Inhalation of heat and smoke at said tire at the Hochester Orphan Asylum. I tiud that the tin? at the Kochest Orphan Asylum on the morning of January 8, UJl, started In the basement of mi. build-lug, but the origin of said tire Is unknown.

Jt was probably due to the ignition of escaping illuminating gas. 1 find from tue evidence produced that the only two Are on the bull. ling were of no use, as the entrance to said escapes were cnt off by the tire. I find 'hat if the buildings had been equipped with suPicient tire escapes of a proper kind, more especially the building known ns the Potter builc'ing, the lives of twenty-three children might have been saved. 1 find that the building was not properly guarded by a male night watchman.

While the presence of a night watchman might be objectionable to the lady managers while he whs makimr his rounds of the dormitories ut tilRht. It must be distinctly that to protect the lives of the luuiais of such an institution as this, the pres. of a male nisrht watchman, or nU'lif engineer. Is an absolute necessity. If such a watchman had liecn employed, and made frequent roun 1-t of the building, the loss of life would have been averted.

I find that the trustee itnd managers of the Rochester Orphan Asylum wer logMgmt In not employing such nlKht ti utchnau. I find that, from the testimony cf some of the trustees, that they ithe trustees! went su-h In name only and did nothing but look after the funds of the Institution and partake of the nodal functions. On thf other hand the report of the Itochcx'cr Orphan Asylum for I'd! shows that t'le trustees H-ere divided into committees and to vnrl-ous departments. uch as liw. Itnauces.

I.i.lld-Itijrs nnd grounds, p.Io'i. entertainments and audits. It teem 4 to me that the committee on bui'dinzs and would have other duties than that of looking after the endowment fund. From the testimony I ibid that the trustees did not make any Inspection of the buildings. Th testimony the fire marshal shows that he had not made an of the Kochester Orphan Asylum two years, saving that he was unnble lo find tlmr to do so tteeause he was so hampered by th lcck of help, and that he had to make all Inspections personally.

1 find that thV narrow policy of the mayor and board of estimate and apportionment in not providing the fire marshul help to make at least semi annual inspections of this nnd other similar Institutions to the end that the Inmates of such buildings might be adequately protected, should give way to a more liberal provision for aucu Important work. I find that much time was lost by th night nurses In not notifying the matron of the presence of fire ocfore the children In the dormitories were awakened. find from the evidence that the tire department responded to the nbirm promptly, reached the fire quickly, and did efficient work. I find that the deceased above named time to their deaths as described, and said deaths were due to accident. HENRY KLEIXDIEXST.
