Messrs. John V- Hurrnl and Ueorsns rbrtskle argued that Mr. Kichardson. asaired- Itor of the iron oompany, was entitled to pre-vant It from suing on the contract. Insjmucn as ail Its rights umter tbe contract bad been assigned by it to Trustees ror the benefit or its creditors, acJ had been wrongfully ruasAlgnvd to It by the Trustees, for whose removal from their iMMtaa sult is now pending In Boston, it twins; chjrrtred that tbey bad betrayed their trust.

In that suit tbe right of the iron company to sua on tba contract would be In tbe meantime. Messrs. Hurrtll and Zabrlakte argued, it should be restrained from ajiing oa it. George W. Cotterill and Aaron J.

Vanderpoel. who appeared for the iron company, insisted that Km: hard son, being supported ouly by one of the 6T other creditors of the company, was not entitled to recognition, and furthermore should be discountenanced because be was discharged from tbe service ot tbe company for drunken-nnes. and bad thereafter assisted tbo Metropolitan Elevtod Kallroad Company to defend its suit. It was In tbe interest of -tbe railroad company, and not for tbe benefit of the creditors of tha fa-oa company, that be sued, tbey said. Tba trial of tba Iron cominy' suit had been put off from time to time.

Finally a stipulation was made la open court that it should be tried last December, but when tba trial day arrived tbe to Junction was Interposed. lien T.

Tba ttearoihio Advance, of tha United State and Brazil Mall Una, whloh arrived yesterday from Rio Janeiro, brought six men belonging to tha whaling schooner Mary E. Simmon. Tbey were rescued on Deo.

1 In aa ex hausted condition, after having passed two day In aa open boat without food or water. Tba Mary E. Bimmons a New-Bedford whaler which 1st io Novemoer was cruising along tha South American coast. On tha morning of Nov. SB, when tba vessel was off tba east and of Pernambueo, a school of whales was sighted.

Capt. Manly soon brought hi vessel cloee to tba wbalea and rave tbe order to lower away tba boats. Tba first aod second mate got into tbelr boats, and soon each bsd killed a whale apiece and had fastened onto another. As tbe first mate boat bad been smashed a few days before, that offioer bad taken the boat usually bandied by the third mate. Capt.

Manly ordered John Praro. tba third mate, to take a pare boat and join the first and second ms tea. Praro took with blm five men, and was soon among the whales, reelecting a large one, he burid hi harpoon In tbe back of tbe monster, which Immediately dived under water and started off at a frightful rate of speed, pulling tbe boat after him. Praro Kept the harpoon line fast, and tbe wbala sped on until It was elu-ht or tn miles from tbe schooner. It tben suddenly Lcame up under the boat, whloh It nearly oap- slsed.

Tbe boat filled, but Dy numeoiy nailing ar out tbe men kept ber from swamping. Tbe barpoon line was let go, and the oars were lashed to the ixiat in order to prevent there from being wasbod away. Tha men looked around ror tbe schooner. Shews mile away and evidently not following tbem. The sailors watobed anxiously, and shortly before dark tbey ssw tbe schooner beading toward them.

She was, bowever. proceeding slowly. When' darkness settled down over tbe distant schooner It revealed one of her light, which scorned to come nearer for a while and then appeared to stop. Tben It slowly grew (mailer and at midnight disappeared. There was neither food nor provisions In tha host, and tbe next day tbe men began to suffer from tnlrst.

In their lonolnes for water tbev scarcely felt tbe want of food. During tbe afternoon a sailor named Tonv. who appeared to suffering terribly from thirst, sprang up and began to shout in a delirious manner. He fnno ed that he saw vessels approaching from all directions. He cried to tbe people on these phantom crafts to save blm.

Finally he made a spring as If be would plunire overboard. He was seized br two of his comrades, who threw him down in the bottom of the boat and labed btm there. The poor fellow raved wildly. Put he was too weak to free himself from his confinement. No vessel hove in sight that day.

Thirst kept tbe weary men from sleeping, and they lay on the sent listening to the sound of the wives and the cries of tbeir raving shipmate. When at length day broke over the ocean two sails were in sight, although many miles away. One of the vessels proved to be tha County of Clare, Caot. McNeil, whloh picked up the suffering ailors about noon. The noat crew comprised inira Mate rraro, Manuel Homraem.

Antonio-Perrira. Lawrenoe IxKlnevlner, Antonio Manuel Lima, and Alexander G. Wood. Tbe latter is a Connecticut negro, but the others are Portuguese. Tbe Consul at Pernnmbuco secured passage for tbe men on tbe steamship Advance.

John Ericsson was as busy at work yesterday as he ever was in bis life. Capt. Erica-ion is happy in the thought and knowledge that be ha passed tbe good ripe old age cf fourscore years and two. and will, tf his good health continues, celebrate his ehrhry-thlrd birthday July 31 next. Tuesday afternoon the great Inventor received two things that made him happy.

The first wm a kindly letter from tbe Spanbtb Government and tbe second was a substantial and most beautiful evidence of the sincerity of this expression la tbe shape of a very handsomo present. Tbe present from Spain was uggcsted, and Its desttrn approved, bv tbe late Kiau Alfonso, who always manifested a decided interest in Mr. F.ricsrton's efforts In behalf of nsval science. Lews than one year ago the naval representative of Spain In American waters, Capt. Arbal.

who came to this country as the special mesbena-er of the Klnir. sent to bis Roy Majesty Inventor Ericsson's drawings in detail of the so-called destroyer system of submarine artillery, which is frequently referred to, erroneously, bowever, as tbe torpedo system." Tbe Ericsson contnv-auca Is a war vessel that carrka a submarine gun. and 60 pleased was King Alfonso with tbe drawings and stated Jicl submitted to him, tbat he personally gave orders for the manufacture of a recognition alike- creditable to trpaln and tbe genius of tbe inventor. Tbe drawings for this testimonial were seen snd commended by Alfonso before bis death. The present consists of two reparole ornaments.

The first is a handsome medal of unique style and exquisite workmanship. Tbe central figure Is a beautiful solid gold star so constructed that when it is beld in electric or gas light innumerable diamonds seem to sparkle wit radiant Hashes from every observable point. Boposing In tbe centre of this star is a lovely cross of white enamel set la gold, lrom the interior of whloh is reflected an anchor molded in blue of rare finish and striking beauty, the base of which i gold. Attached to this is a buckle of solid gold Intended as a safeguard, on which the whole ornament may depend wnen pinned to the coat. Tbe medal Is surmounted by tbe royal crown of Spain, in which rubies and other precious stcne are conspicuous ornament.

The second ornament awarded to Inventor Erioson is intended to be worn with that already described, and Is also conferred by royal decree. This i a collar and sasb made of tbe finest materials. Tbat part of tbe sash which when worn rests on tbe hip contains a cross of gold that Is studded with sparkling, priceless Jewels, Intended to suggest tbe figures of the medal, but not so large or costly. Those ornaments are said to be the finest ever received by Mr. Ericsson, who stopped in his work yesterday to' admire them.

"Tbey are the most beautiful 1 ever saw." was b.s pleased expression. Referring to tbe health of Mr. Ericsson, who works els-bt hours every day at bis home at No. ad Beach-street, a friend said: He is in splendid condition; nothing seems to affect bim, although he is C3 years old. He eat well, talks well, sleeps well, and works well.

It Is my deliberate Judgment that Mr. Ericsson I now capable of performing heavier brain labor than be wa a quarter of a century ago."

THI WILL Or LOCI3 BAMXRSLXT AD MITTED TO PROBATE. St rrogaU Rolling decided yesterday to adm to probate tbe will of Loui Ramers-ley, iver which there ha been two year of lltv. gatl' in. Tba decedent died on the 3d of May. 1883, in tbe forty-third year of bis age, leaving a wdi w.

Tbe estate was a iar re one, being roughly valued at nearly So. MO.000.

with Jame C. Cartel a counsel for proponents. It was a pro-tn ctcd and tedious fight. One of the principal features manifested itself when Mis Beco Jobe, an old servant In the Hamersley family, was called to testify. She answered a tew minor questions, but obstinately refused to speak wken askedjibout tbe private life of the Ham-er lie, with which she was presumed to be fuulllar.

Her ret usal to testify resulted In hor Dc Ing taken to Ludlow-Street Jail, where she sp a year, all of tbe time remaining obdurate in ber refusal to testify. She was -finally role used by an order of tbe General Term Supreme urt. Tbe contestant tried to show that Mc Ranter iley bad been under tbe lnfluonce of his wife, ai tbat tbe paper embodied ber wishes. Surrogate Rollins gave a long opinion In fgvor of the probate of the will. In regard to the competency or the testator to make a will be said: "Any man is competent to make a will wtio is capable of sufficient thought, reflection, aad judgment to know what property ha has, to call to mind the persons who, because of tbe cklm of kinship or other causes, might nst-utali jcxpect to be included among toe object of bis bounty, and to form an Intelligent purpose as to whom he will make and whom be will refuse to make bis testamentary beneficiaries.

Now, whatever may have been the intellectual power and attainments of this decedent as compared with those of other people in gjeneraL 1 am satisfied that they were far above the minimum standard of the statute as that standard bas been interpreted by the courts. Indeed, tbe testimony offered by the contestants themselves would not satisly me to tbe con- Iary." The second point tbe Surrogate dismissed with few words, claiming that thore was no ques-on tbat the paper waa duly executed. In ngard to tbe third point, that undue In fluence was usea, burrogate ttnllins said that she mere lnfluonce of affection and regard could iot sumce to invalidate a testamentary puper. was manifestly one of tbe paramount objects the statute of wills to afford full and ree opportunity for tho influences of affeo-i Ion and regard to display themselves. If he very existence of these motive to he bestowal of testamentary bounty must le held to make such bestowal lliegnl and invalid, tbe statute was self-contradictory and ireposterous." A review of the facts brouirht tut in the case Is then made and applied to these irinclples.

Preii-Ident Bergh reminded the society that through pt example and assistance more than three-ffamh of tbe States and Territories of this loiuntry bave adopted the laws and practices uthat govern the organization, and that many iioreign countries were beginning to take active 'ieteps to prevent cruelty to animals. superintendent cnarias H. Hanklnson reported tbat besides carefully inspecting tbe city slaughter bouses ana the live stock trains on their arrival bere tbe officers of the society had kept a close watch on all river boats bringing milch cows, calves, and sheep to market during the Summer months, and much cruelty had been prevented.

Considerable trouble, be said, still existed with regard to tbe manner In which live poultry is shipped to this city, owing to shippers who reside outside of tbe Ptate being ignorant of the laws. This evil, however. Is being gradually remedied by the society's rigid mode of procedure. Mr. Hanklnson reluctantly admitted that tbe so-called sports of dog and cock fighting are still furtively carried on In remote localities outside this city, where It is almost imposal- Ole Tor the officers to approach without disco very."

Aa Pell leaned over to do the cutting, the trauger, who bad lollowed blm to the back of the ature, struck him three times on the side of tbe bead with some blunt instrument and felled him to tho floor.

Then he rilled tbe money drawer, but secured only 41 cents. He evidently Intended to turn-next to the open safe, but a lad named Leach entered Just then. Tbe thief pocketed what little he bad secured and ran away. Tbe police were notified aod a close description of the thief was given to tbem, but at but accounts they had not succeeded in capturing him. The boy said that as soon as the man bad fled from the store Mr.

Pell staggered from tbe rear, blood streaming from wounds In bis bead, and exclaimed tbat he was going to die. He was taken to his home and medical attendance was summoned. He is .0 years of age, and bis physician fears tbat the concussion will probably result fatally. The thief evidently knew of Mr. Pell' habit and when ha could be most is rely attacked, and be ts presumed to have used a piece of leaden pipe upon bis victim.
