Ellen Chrisholm, 32 years old, of 141 Twenty third street, has been in the habit of making a savings bank of her mantelpiece, but Judging from an experience which shows that such a place of deposit is not altogether secure, she will not do so in the future.

Rivers, aged 32 years, a dancing master, who claims a residence at 367 Sixth avenue and is a member of a well known Brooklyn family, was arrested last evening in a Fulton street department store on a technical charge of petty larceny. A strange feature of the case is the claim of the young man's counsel that he committed the alleged offense for the purpose of securing his commitment to some sanitarium.

Early last evening the young man wandered into the department store and making his way to the clothing department asked to Gee some spring overcoats. A number were spread out for the prospective customer's inspection and, after looking them over with a critical eye, he selected a fine black coat, silk lined and of the meet approved fashion. Removing his rain coat, he asked that he might in fitted vita a garment of the particular style selected.

Miss Sprandell declared to Magistrate Kramer that Hilcher had given the ring to her outright in return for a stickpin.

The will was made on April 15, 1901, and the property goes to relatives.

To his daughter, Sarah Jane Delap, the testator gives the usesof his residence on McDonough street, near Sumner avenue, free of rent for a year after his death; also J7.000 in trust for the support, of his granddaughter, Estelle C.

Rivers threw his rain coat across his arm and started for the main entrance. Miss Susie Driscoll. one of the big store's force of detectives, who had been watching the stranger closely, thought she detected the corner of one of the new coats protruding from beneath the rain coat and promptly followed the man departing. Before the man euspected reached the main entrance the detective reminded him that he had a garment he had not paid for. Immediately Mr.

Rivers pulled from one of his pockets a glistening bit of metal which very much resembled the barrel of a revolver and it is alleged, pointed it at the detective and remarked that he would shoot. The young woman was not at all phased by the act ar.d her experienced eves soon told her that the man held onlv 'a match box of artistic pattern in his right hand and that her life was not in the least danger. Word was promptly sent to police headquarters that I he services of officers were required at the store, and Detectives James and Frank Kelly were dispatched to learn what was the occasion of the call. They found Mr. Rivers and escorted him to headquarters, where he told a rambling story and it was plainly evident to the officers who looked the visitor over that he was not in good health.

His family was communicated with and it was finally decided that the young dancing master should be locked up in the Adams street police station for the night for safe keeping. This morning Mr. Rivers accompanied by his wife a pretty woman, and his counsel, Andrew J. Colvin. appeared before Magistrate Dooley in the Adams street court.

No complaint had been drawn against Mr. Rivers and. none was dermed necessary after an explanation had been made to the court. Young Mr. Rivers, it was stated, had for some time been addicted to the use of morphine and he had fought hard to overcome the habit.

A friend, to whom he had told his trouble, it seems had asked him why he did not commit some offense so that he might be placed in some Institution and away from temptation. He might then undergo some effectual treatment and thus be cured. Mr. Rivers, it is said, expressed his approval of the scheme. It was only a brief period after this that ZELLER SCORES THE POLICE.

He improved very much and had finally reached that stage where it was thought to be cured. He was then discharged.

Once out of the institution, the old desire returned and with the usual results. It is supposed that he was so well pleased with the results attained while in the hospital that the young man had planned to be again sent to an institution for treatment by his act of yesterday.

This removed the possibility of attributing malice to the Police Commissioner in making the raids, and for That reason he was discharged.

Waldron, the proprietor of the dance hall, said this morning that he would move to have the penalty of $500 fine imposed and take steps to have him removed from office if the Police Commissioner ordered raids on his place again. Mr.

Farley would not discuss the matter. In the course of his decision the magistrate says: "In my opinion not only were the arrests In complainant's premises entirely illegal, but each and every officer who staid in his premises without complainant's permission a minute longer than to see whether a violation of law was being committed was a trespasser and his refusal to leave when requested constituted disorderly conduct.

HARTFORD MACHINISTS STRIKE. GRAMLICH ELECTED CAPTAIN.

Syracuse, N. May 28 Jacob Edward Superintendent Waitt Says the llacEin ists Have No Grievances. At the office ot A. M. Waitt, superintendent of motive power for the New York Central Railroad, it was said this that no demands from the machinists at Depew or anywhere else on the line of the road had been received.

The officials said they had not heard of an impending strike or of any dissatisfaction on the part of the men with the prevailing conditions. The report that there might be a striko and that the machinists were to send an ultimatum to the road was said to have probably originated in a circular printed in two Buffalo newspapers, which came from th striking machinists on the Lehigh Valley and one other road running Into Buffalo. The circulars called the attention of the New York Central employes to the fact that th strikers were asking for a 10 per cent, advance and a nine hour day. It seemed to be an effort to induce a sympathetic striko on the part of the New York Central men. The railroad officials said to day that If that was the incentive of those issuing th circular it would fail of its effect.

As already explained at some length In the Eagle, the foundation work, it is expected, will be completed by July and then the first consignment of steel will be delivered by the company having the contract for this work. The work on the Brooklyn approach will be pushed ahead rapidly, for the reason that all the ground necessary is in the possession of the Bridge Commissioners and has been razed of the buildings which stood in the path of the bridge.

In the meantime the work on the footbridge structure, which was delayed during the past few days on account of the stormy weather, was resumed this morning, when the workmen again appeared on the structure and under the super vision of the Roebling's Sons Company will endeavor to make up for the delay occasioned by the stormy weather and also the time lost in the settlement of their difficulty when they demanded an advance of wages, which was granted. From now on great activity will be shown on the bridge work, and it Is anticipated that the evidence of this will be shown before the conclusion of the summer. It is expected that before the conclusion of the present week a connection will be made between the footbridge structure over the river and will be followed then by the completion of the land spans. When this is accomplished there will be a continuous footway from one anchorage to the other. This work, it is expected, will be finished some time next week.

Following this four additional wire ropes, the same size as that which makes up the footbridge cables will be stretched in order to support the upper structure, which will also consist of footways, which are necessary for the work of wire stretching for the construction of the bridge cables proper. Before the entire structure is completed it will require another month. It is expected that the first week in July will see it completed.
