-The Governor expects briefs relative to the complications arising out of MeKane's conviction. Ho was not prepared to-day to say whether the conviction of McKane made a vacancy in the Board 'of Supervisors to be filed by the Governor or at a special election or by the Board of Gravesend. The matter, has not, of course, come before the Governor officially, and may not for some time. When it does he and Protessor Collin, his legal adviser, will look up the laws bearing on the subject. Professor Collin is not in town and neither is Attorney General Hancock.

The CITIZEN correspondent asked the Deputy Attor-' ney General whether McKane'8 conviction made vacancy in the Board of Supervisors. Mr. Davis, without wishing to be understood as an opinion offisially, thought there would be A vacuncy when the conviction had been completed by the sentence of the Court. The public ofticers' act of 1892 declares an office vacated for any one of seven reasons: First, death of incumbent; second, his resignation: third, his removal from office; fourth. his ceasing to be an inhabitant of the State, or it he be a local officer of the political subdivision or municipal corporation of which he is required to be A resident when chosen; fifth, his conviction of a felony or 8 crime involving a violation of his oath of office; sixth, judgment of A coart declaring void his election or appointment, or that his office 18 forleited or Vacant; seventh, his refusal or negleet to file his official oath or undertaking.

Deputy Attorney-General Davis could not SAy without consulting autbority just what effect a notice of appeal would have on McKane's standing 8A a Supervisor. It is possible that some special act bearing on the case may be found on the statute books. MOTHER AND SON SUCCUMB. Mrs. McKane and Her Son Became Umconscious on Receipt of the News.

The verdict which pronounced John Y. MeKane guilty of conspiring to falsify the registration lists of the town of Gravesend and which sent him to Raymond Street Jail last night fell with greater force on those who knew him best as husband and father. It was a cruel blow and struck down the wife and son 118 lightning strikes. George McKane, the blind son of the chief, who was recently married to a daughter of 1 the Rev. Mr.

Saunders, of New York, waited at the telephone for the first news of the result. He had waited far into the night before and was close beside it early yesterday morning. He stayed by it until noon. His mother was close by his side. It was a weary wait and it had told on their faces, Shortly after noon yesterday the bell TANg.

The result was announced to the blind young man as gently as possible, but Guilty wAs the message. He repeated it and the word fell like a violent blow on Mrs. McKane. With moan she sunk upon the floor and became hesterical. George controlled himself until the servants were summoned to attend to his mother, when he, too, fell to the floor unconscious.

His wife WA6 summoned, and when he had been partly restored to consciousness he begged to be taken to his mother. but Mrs. McKane, thought it better to keep them apart. The condition of both mother and son became so serious that Mr. J.

0. F. Hill, the family physician, was called in. It was late last night before he had both his patiente "resting quietly. The aged mother of the chief, who is 78 years old, was not notified of the result.

In fact, the whole affair has been withheld from She in a cottage some distance from that occuDie AS three other sons, and they have pied John Y. McKane's family. take special care to keep her in ignorance. They are afraid the news. no matter how carefully broken, would kill her.

Last night they Could not see her, and sent word that they had come to the city. Words of symyathy were heard on all sides. for the family of John N. McKane is greutly loved and respected in Sheepshead Bay. Many persons called at the residence of both John Y.

and George last night and this morning to convey their expressions of sympathy, but the mesSages were received by one of the domestic 8. EVERY MAN HIS FRIEND. Gravesenders Who Claim that McKane Was, Wrongfully Convicted. The news of John Y. MoKane's conviction, when it was flashed to Gravesend yesterday, fell like a thunderbolt on everybody there.

The chief had few enemies, and they could be numbered on the fingers of one hand. It seemed though pall had fallen over the town, and without exception everyone felt that McKane, whom they knew better than anyone else could know, was unjustly dealt by. No one had expected a conviction. They had been prepared to see a disagreement at the least, and the announcement was the harder to credit. The chief has yot many earnest and faithful friends, who will stand by him to the Inst.

-Justice of the Peace McMahon, of Sheepshend. Bay, when asked last night what he thought of the verdict, said that he had been opposed to McKake politically at times, although ho was the first man to nominate him for Supervisor; but when he heard the verdict he could not prevent a tear fulling. Hans Kronika, who hotel at Sheepsbead Bay, said he was a Republican. and that he voted against MeKane, but he did not think he should have been convicted, and he did not think that there were half a dozen men in Gravesend who thougut otherwise. Frank Griffin, a contractor in Gravesend, warm friend of the chief's.

was particularly hot over the result of the trial. "I don't believe John Y. McKane had a fair trial." he said. There seemed to be position on the part of some persons to bring abont his conviction in any way possible. Now, I have wife and two children in Coney Island, but if the chief is to be forced into prison would consider it a privilege to serve out his term in his place, and there are plenty of men down this way who would do the same.

Johu Y. McKnne has more friends down here to-duy than he had before that jury returned its verdict." John Colwell, one of the trustees of the church of which McKane is a member, and of which he is the superintendent of the Sundav school. said that they were all greatly disappointed at the verdict. It is not what they had expected. As to the trustees taking any action," said Mr.

Colwell. "because of the conviction. I can see no necessity for anything of the kind. He is a Christian man and honest in every way. We do not intend to take action in such a matter as this.

which results from. a political fight." The Rev. J. A. Churchill, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church, of Sheepshead Bay, refused to discuss the master, as he had not discussed it with anybody, and nll he knew about it was what he saw in the news papers.

McKane is sentenced on Monday we will immediately ask for a stay. He wus not convicted upon the evidence and I am sure the higher court will decide in his favor.

Larkins made a brief address, calculated to inspire his pupils with a desire to improve their opportunities to the utmost.

The Ice Bridge which has just formed at Niagara Fails, is the largest and most beautiful one seen in many years. It has apparently to stay, and unless a decided thaw sets in will probably last for several weeks.

Ar imposing ice mountain has aleo formed at the foot of the Falls, The sleighing is splendid. The Niagara Falls trains of the New York Central are carrying a goodly number of the sight-seers, and accommodations have beea engaged for several large parties who intend to go out Saturday and spend Sundar nt the Falls, returning on the night train.

The Report Contradicts, the Common Knowledge of Men-Ong Commissioner Adjudged Guilts of Gross Neglect--New John T.

Barnard, Charles Small and Otto Haber were appointed by the Supreme Court commissioners, on application of the Railroad Company, to condemn the right of way on Myrtle avenue, opposite the following property Sarah Gater, No. 177; Charles H. H. 8. Bulkley and Isxac Horton, No.

196; Isaac O. Horton, No. 197; John Inglis, No. 198 and 199: Thomas, J. Sinnott, Annie E.

Sinnott, Catharine T. Sinnott. John F. Sinnott and Emma A. Sinnol, infante, and Mary C.

Sinnott executor under the will of Thomas Sinnott, No. 165, And William P. Weinsch, No. 124. The commissioners appraised the damages to the property at 6 cents in each case.

Their report was presented to the Supreme Court, Mr. Justice Gaynor presiding, who took the papers. To-das he handed down 8 decision, refusing to confirm the report and appointing new commissioners. His opinion is as follows: cannot confirm the report of the commiesioners. It awards only 6 cents damages to tho owners of the property.

Three of these owners are infants, and the Court appointed a guardian ad litom to look after their interests. There were eighteen sessions of the commissioners. There were fifteen witnesses examined, only two of whom were on behalf of the railroad company, and the testimony covers 431 typewritten pages. One of the commissioners never attended a meeting or heard a word of the testimony, though he joins in the award of six cents. This in itself is to be condemned.

One of the most important sessions was had before only one commissioner (p. The guardian ad litem had it put upon the record that he did not consent to these absences of commissioners and it is if he had the power to consent thereto. The premises so adjudged by these three commia ioners to be damaged only 6 cents by a double track elevated railroad in front of it, over which trains run every few minutes, is a three-story brick building, all of which except the street floor is used for dwelling purposes. I also refuse to confirm the five other reports of these commissioners awarding 6 cents damages in the case of parcels 177, 196. 197, 199 and 199, which are also store and tenement properties.

An examination of the testimony in each of the seven cases shows that the awards of the commissioners are grossly and palpably inadequate and unjust. The case made out for the owners is not seriously impaired by the experts called by the railroad company. The testimony the depreciation in the rents, and the difticulty of getting tenants is ignored. It will not do to thus di- regard the rigats of individuale. No one could view this property, as the commissioners were required to do by law.

without seeing that this railroad makes these tenements uncomfortable and distressing places to live in. The eves of the commissioners cannot be legitimately closed by the paid testimony of so-called experts. The law compels them to personally inspect the premises so th.it they may have the best of all evidence. that of their own senses. The reports of the commissioners contradict the common knowledge of men.

I shall not allow them to stand. The commissioner whose neglect has been noted in the case of the first parcel treated all the others with the same gross neglect. He never attended meeting, except to join in making the uujust reports. can conceive of no object in favor of the rights of the property owners which caused him to go on these commissions or to rem in there. Such things cannot be permitted in this court.

It is not an adequate answer to say that the parties went on in his absence. Every one can appreciate the reluctance of the property owners to do anything to offend any of the commissioners. and they doubtless hoped for the best. were in all 2.995 typewritten pages of testimony taken. The absent commissioner states in his report that his fellow commissioners furnished him with the copy of the testimony and that he has carefully read the same without unnecessary This great mass of tegtimony could hardly be carefully read for the purpose of making a decision upon it without being marked and noted as the reading progressed: vet.

ECHO OF A STRIKE. I A Suit that Shows the Big Business of a Dry Goods House. A suit which has just been filed in the United States Circuit Court is an echo of the big strike at the Newark mills of the Clark Thread Company, four years ago. At that time the employees of the mills rebelled against the under nuted superintendent "Taskmaster of tue works, Walmser, whom they as The company stood by Mr. Walmsey, and the outcome the strike was that the general superintendent of the company.

William Clark, resigned and established the William Clark Thread Company at Westerly, R. I. The Newark compiny complained that the name of the new concern was an infringement on its own. Then the designation of the second corporation was changed to the William Clark Company. This did not satisfy the Newark people, and the case was curried to the courts.

Suits have been instituted against various barge dry goods concerns in the country to restrain them from selling the goods of The William Clark Company. Papers were filed to-day in A suit against. Lyman S. Barnham; Hugh Boyd and John M. Conklin, composing the firm of Journeay Burnham, by the Clark Thread Company, of Newark.

The plaintiffs sueto recover, first, the profits that have accrued from the sale of the thread. estimated at second, all thread in session of defendants, and third, damage to plaintiff's business caused by the sale of the Westerly thread. Thev also ask for an injunetion restraining Journey Burnham from selling the thread in future. The plaintiff's also allege that the Westerly Company's labels and trademarks are infringements on their own. York Street M.

and Mrs. Wratten and their three children and Mr. Wratten's mother. Suspicion became attached to Stone and he was arrested. At first he protested his innocence.

but later, under strong pressure. acknowledged his guilt and named six other men who he declared were implicated in the crime. This was followed 8 week Inter by another confession, in which he stated that he alone committed the murders. He was first at the Wratten homestend the next day and gave the alarm of the murder. He notified the undertaker and helped him prepare the bodies for burial.

He also made himself generally useful around the house the day following the murder, and was loud in his denunciation of the terrible deed. In fact, he went so far as to act in the capacity of pallbearer at the funeral. Ethel, whose skull was crushed in WAS alive on the morning the murder was discovered. although unconscious, and lingered for a week at the house of a neighbor. Among others, Stone called to see the little sufferer and tender assistance.

According to 8 confession made by Stone to his father a short time ago, he took advantage of the absence of the family at dinner one day and deliberately smothered the child, fearing that she would live to tell the story of the murder and of his connection with it.

Mrs. Polley was the widow of Grahams Polley, a distiller who nearly half a century ago owned nearly all that section of the Fourteenth Ward from North Third to North Tenth street, and from Berry street to the East River.

He was a famous old character among Eastern District people, und, at his death, nearly thirty-five years ago, every one regretted it.

She went there in the company of her two sons and did not return. The family lived in the cottage of the late William R. Travis at Saratoga.

In a letter received a few days ago by Mrs. William G. Quinn, Mra. P'olley'8 daughter, Mrs. Polley was reported to be rupilly improving.

The unnouncement of her death in a telegraphic dispatch was a shock to her friends. To IL CITIZEN reporter Mr. Quinn. who lives at No. 60 Morton street, snid to-day that he believed the old ludy's death must have been rather sudden.

Mra. Polley was born in Cherry street. New York. Her maiden name was Wright, and she married Mr. Polley when quite young.
