MANORVILLE, L. Jan. after the first of tbe year a quail whistled Bob White within the bearing of Gilbert W. Raynor, who winged the bird as his dog raised it from the field. At least ao tbe story goes.

This tale waa brought to State Came Protector "3. E. Overton, of Port Jefferson, who promptly caused Mr. Raynor'a arrest and, haled him before Justice of tbe Peace W. Lane, of this place, where a fine of (25 was Tbe chief witness in the case was George V.

Hutton, Rieqal Wells also had something to aay against the defend-a'frt, who was himself, at one time, a justice of the peace. Mr. Overton Is now mad all through. He lays he started the proceedings in the plain performance of a duty to the State. Now he means to g4 a bit further tban he is ordinarily required to do.

It appears that Hutton claims Raynor threatened him, saying hed be sorry for it if be testified against him. The testimony was given and Raynor paid the fine: NOw, said Mr. Overton, I learn that had my witness, Hutton, arrested on a warrant issued by Justice Riley P. Howe, Of East Moriches. Why should Le go there to charge Hutton with perjury? Instead of trying the case, Justice Howe paroled Hutton, leaving a stain or cloud upon him and his testimony, of course.

His friends demanded a trial and a copy of the docket, but both were denied. It is not of consequence that Justice Howe has since then discharged Hutton. He should not have paroled him If there wai sufficient evidence against him to warrant him in Issuing an order for his arrest. I mean to institute a suit, in the name of the State, a civil Jction, against Raynor for his action. Hutton also has cause of action for false arrest.

Either he did or he did not perjure himself. A parolement without trial is no Settlement- Of a charge, and a tardy dismissal of the charge Is about ns empty a vindication. Mr. Overton went on to Say that his action against Mr. Raynor and' ethers whose arrest he had caused has no personal spite whatever tn it.

He desires to protect the game according to the will of the people as expressed by' tbe la we, and be does not propose to have hla witnesses persecuted after he hts 'acted. The outcome of the trouble will be awaited with interest, for all- the parties concerned are prominent men In Eaktern Suffolk. BILL TO SEPARATE -QUEENS. Assemblyman Keenan Takes a Bill to Albany for That Purpose. l6nG ISLAND CITY, L.

Jan; 22 Assemblyman Luke A. Keenan, of the Long Island City district, left for Albany yesterday with a bill in his pocket which, should he succeed in getting through the Legislature, Will, bring ebout some interesting changes In Queens County. The proposed measure is an act providing for the submission of the question of separating the' county and borough of Queen, from tha city of New York, andjnaking a separate city of It. Under tbe proposed bill only the electors in the county and. borough of Queens will be allowed to vote On tbe question, and the act ia to take effect immediately upon its passage by the Legislature and its approval by the.

Governor. Hr. Keenan says there ia.no doubt that a large majority of the electors would vote for separation, or that they are. willing to support a bill making a separate city out of Brooklyn and Queens. What they Mr.

Keenan sayl, is to get rid of Manhattan. NOW IN THE HOSPITAL. Followed the Jsdgs la tbe Street aad Eves Galled at His Home aad Abased Hias Whea He Dlstarbed the Proeeediags of the Coart He Wae Looked Up Said to Be Infat-aated With Mist Emma Toajes, Graadaieee of Sugar Reflaer Dick. Justice William J. Gaynor secured the arrest yesterday afternoon of Lawyer Walter Anderson, of No.

174 Rutledgn street. This morning he was taken to the Kings County Hospital to have his sanity inquired into at tho request of his brother. Anderson io considered by the Justice to be a dangerous man to be at large, and it is quite likely that he sill be committed to tbe Insane Asylum after the doctor have bad a talk with him. He waa in a sanitarium in tbe West for some time, but escaped tnd came back to this city. It is further claimed that be was engaged to be married to Mis Emma Tonjea, of No.

101 South NiDth street, a grand niece Of William Dick, the sugar refiner. This engagement was broken, and Mr. Anderson blamed tbe sugar trust, claiming that tho mon in it were opposed to him because he advocated Bryans election. Anderson has been annoying the clerks Of tbe varibus pollce courts for some time past. A week ago ho was a visitor to tho Adams Street Coart, and became confidential with the clerk.

He would not speak to him while any one was in the room, but as soon as they were left alone he1 poured a volley of abuse on the heads of those connected with the sugar trust. He said thst. hi object in visiting the court was for the purpose Of securing a warrant for the arrest of twO persons on the charge of murder. "I want to tell you, he said to the clerk, that I have suffered much at the hands of a woman and her daughter, and I insist thgt you give me a warrant for their arrest, as my life is in danger." Who haa been murdered?" asked the clerk of him. "Why, Im the person." he answered.

This woman and her daughter that I want apprehended sre connected with the eufr trust, and they must be prosecuted. I was engaged to the girl in 1896, snd on the evening that 1 was introduced to her Mr. Dick, of sugar fame, as among the fueatk. I hardly think thst you can get warrant here, said the clerk, who by tUs time bad com to the conclusion that the man Was not In his right mind. This teemed to irritate Anderson very much, for ho jumped from bis ehair.

got paper holder, and, banging it down on the table, Mid that be wonld get justice if he had to appeal to higher courts. Then stepping to the center of the JJqor, he declared that ha, had worked hard for the success of Bryan at the last election. The papers, he shouted, put me down as a So cialist, but I am nothing of the kind." The clerk tried to humor him by asking whether he etill kept company with tbe woman ho wanted the, warrant for. He Mid that every effort had been made to break the engagement, but that did not prevent him from visiting the honae. After tbe campaign waa over," he Mid, I becaihe very blue and did not feel myself for some time.

It had been tbe custom of the family to admit me to the parlor whenever I called, hut latterly they showed Tiirintirsbedroom.They did not take much notice of me and one evening I waa given whisky to drink. I fell esep and when, I awoko there was no one in ths room but the servant girt. She told me that I had better go home, and something that struck me very singular was when 1 got to the door sbe aaid good-by. You see, it had always been the custom to My good evening. After that I was laid up tor four or five days.

I went back to tbe girls honse again and they gave me Cake to eat and once more I felt bad. Tbe giria mother told me tbit the trouble with me was that I took too much medicine, but that is something! never did. Then they began to make fan of me in the honse. Let tell you, now yoang man. that although that the Sugar Trust is after me 1 though I know that the Sugar Trust is after me I dont can a rap for it.

fre then leaned over tbe clerk and asked: "Ws Mr. Havemeyer here to see yon today? No sir. answered tho clerk. Welt, they want to send me tway, but they will never do It, he Mid. If you come around hero to-morrow morning," Mid the clerk.

Magistrate Brenner will undoubtedly give your csm seme attention. The seemed tu satisfy him, but it is quite evident that he did not adopt the suggestion judging from the letter which was received by the magistrate this morning from Judge Gaynor. The judgo appealed to him.to see that the lawyer was committed to somo In-Miration, a he was a dangerous person to be at targe. Thia man," he wrote, ha route to the Court House and annoyed mo. He haa followed me tn the street, called at niy house and raised a scene.

The proper piece for hit iq an asylum. At 4:30 yesterdsy afternoon Anderson entered Fart II of xhe Supreme Court and handed np a bundle of paper to Justin Gaynor, who directed him to sit down. I wont sit down," he said. Fa citisen of the United States and havo a right to come here. Wont some officer mske him sit down?" th judge Mid.

Td like to see any officer pnt nit hand on me. Mid Anderson. Thi man is a dangerous lunatic, Mid the judge, snd he should be arrested." Patrolman Tierney; of the Adams atreet police statioa. wai jinnmoned and Anderson was arrested and locked up. Hit brother appeared at the sfation house this morning tnd took him to the Kings County Hospital in a carriage- To-morrow morning he will be regularly committed to have hit sanity Inquired into.

They hart never been known to bare any differences. Indeed, neighbor aay tbeir relation coold not have been pleasanter. Mr. Clarke wet 30 yeare 6f age and had a bicycle businca on Fulton street, Jamaica, another In Brooklyn, In which latter business he and a brother were in partnership. They were manufacturers, it is understood, of arti ficial palms, also.

There was said to be another bicycle business In which Mr. Clarke had an interest, but location could not be ascertained! The selling, renting and repairing of bicycles la not what it was, according to the. testimony of dealers and it may have been that business troubles led to the suicide, but the opinion among Mr. Clarkee neighbors is very general that hs was doing a nice business and was In comfortable, if not 6pu lent, circumstances. Hie habits were good, his mind clear, hie health, up to yesterday nftemoonr; excellent.

There was. there- fore, no nppargnljxeMea.InX-thlhifltinfi. About 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, Mr. Clarke entered the auction house of T. F.

Archer. He had been drinking; but not to excess. Mr. Archer was inclined to attribute tfiat to the illness of which Mr. Clarke oomplnined in his stomach.

If yon are sick, the" best place lot you Is said Mr. Archer. Mr. Clarke then went borne. In the evening he and.

his wife- visited Manhattan, where they enjoyed a play at one of the Returning, the husband again complained of Illness in his stomach. Finally, about 2:30 oclock, he laid to Mrs. Clarke: I feel very sick, at the stomach. Wont yon go for a because I dont think I shall be alive when he comes. Alarpned beyond measurer his wits ran hastily to tfae home of Dr.

Philip M. Wood, pith whom ah returned to the house with all speed. When they arrived the body of Mr, Clarke waa found eh the floor, a bullet hole in the right temple, and a revolver grasped in the hand. Dr. Wood notified tho.

police, who informed the Coroners office. CerOuer Leonard Rouff will kold tn inquest Ar- rangementi will be made for tha funeral to day or tomorrow. Mr. Clarke it pros-1 trated from shock and grief, and can see no one ht present Deceased waa an Odd Fellow, a member of the Tamaqua Wheelmen and other social organisations, and was well faked by a large circle of friends.

Gnnnison President Boody Will Call a Meeting of tbe Trustees.

Brooklyn, N. Jan. 21, 1901. Mr. Arthur E.

Boatnirk, (or the past two years librarian of the Brooklyn Tub- lie Library, baa accepted tbe position of anperintendent of circulation in th New York Public Library, a place ereated in view of the recent consolidation of the city rireulatin; libraries with tha larger institution. Tbe above circular fell into the band of a number of utftens to-day, and wher ever it went it did not fail to atir inters est. Mra. Oraieie wins. I thought that would, tbe said a librarian who has watched the doings in ths Publie Library with much attention.

1 It was a complete surprise to me, 6 aaid Mr. Henry Sanger Snow, chairman of tho Administration of the Library. I had no other thought than that Mr. Bosjwick would be reapopinteg ia February. I intended to propose his reappointment and Tofe for it.

He haa done excellent work ovet here and wc will be very sorry; to lose him. What is there in the situation that makes' him retire from the head of our library to take a subordinate place in New York? The agitation and discussion in tha papers has been unpleasant. Has 'he found that Mrs.Cra!gis friends in the Board of Trustees are too numerous and active 'to contend against? Has he been forced out? "No, absolutely. Nothing of tbe He baa done fine work which iy much appreciated by the trustee. We want him to stay.

Mr. Bostwick had this tn say in answer to the questions of a Cifixen" reporters I prefer New York to Brooklyn aa a place of residence. Yen have seen what has been printed in the newspapers. Everything has not been pleasant jtere (ud I was glad to accept this Offer to return to New York. Are you returning to the place you resigned from when yon came over hero? No.

this ia a new place, made by the consolidation of the circulating libraries with the New York public libraries." How can a subordinate make matters so uncomfortable for the person in authority as to lead him to retire from tho field? That is not the case, bnt I dont card to discuss that phase of the matter. This offer to you cornea from Dr. Bill-ies. the chief librarian of tho New York Public Cibrary?" No. It come from a committee Of the trustees, bnt undoubtedly with the approval of Dr.

Silling. Wont yonr action be a great surprise to the Controller? No. I dont think that it will be. A member of tbe Board of Trustees commented thns: Tbe retirement of Mr. BoetwicF clears the situation.

Mrs. Craigie really did get the best of the battle at tb last meeting of the Board of Trustees, beerfse it wss resolved to re- -tain her in apite of the desire of Mr. Boat- -wick." i Since th papers ceased their puhlb-a- tiona about the public library, has thers been any increase of friction, any Warms, excursions or assanlts-at-arms between tha librarian and hie assistant? No. Nothing of that aort" What flifl the friction consist of? There wasn't any friction. I think Bostwick took the wrong Instead of calling Me Craigie to him and instructing her.

be kept away, from her, ami at her field of work was not well defined he found her orders conflicting with his own In many instances. The sitnation pro-dneed was distinctly unpleasant, but Mr. Boatwick was as much to blame tor it as aoy one." Trustee Herbert F. Gnnnison, of tha Brooklyn Public Library said: Jt waa a great surprise to me whetf I got the circular thia morning, bnt wo will only have to go ahead and fill the place. want big man and will probably get him from another city.

We had two or three applications from good men under consideration when Mr. Bostwiik came on the some. He' his done good work for Brooklyn and the trustees ill part with him with regret. If there wa any disposition on th? part of th Brooklyn Library to consod-date with the Publie Library, thst would be a way ont of Ml difficulties, because Mr. Willia W.

Bardwell'of the Biocklm Library could become librarian, but I understood from statement made by Mr. Whit a month ago that there is no chance of auch coming together. Hon. David A. Boody, president of tb? Brooklyn Public Library, said: Mr.

Bostwick action was a surprie to me. will hold a meeting of the (ptstees in a few day aad sel-rt a successor. I have nobody in mind, end bar he- no on- nmd. "Mr. Bostwick did excellent work eh 1 he wee with us.

There wss no situation in the Board of Trustee that forced hi out." Commliiioner Fairchild Says He Went to New York for the Par. pose ef Making Explanations, knt Fanad the Mayor tn Na Mood to Liaten to Him Declined to En. gago in an Undignified Controversy. The Mayor's criticism of tbe East River Bridge Commissioners will be brought up before a meeting of tbe Commission to be held on Thursday next. In the meantime the Commissioners decline to discuss the question any further.

They are very much exercised orer the Mayor's attitude inasmuch as they believe, and evidently have reason for so believing, that tbe cause of delay In bridge matters ties with the' Mayor himself and tbe Corporation Counsel, instead of with the (Commissioners. It is a fact that tb Commissioners thought it necessary at their last meeting, held on Thursday of last week, to take some official'action in order to hasten the action of the Corporation Counsel. A resolution was adopted at that' meeting di- io prepare a letter and the president to sign-it to be sent to Corporation Counsel Whalen asking him to make an effort to hasten matters that lay in his hands, and which the Commissioners felt were being nnnecesMrily delayed. Tbe trouble lies on the other side of the East River, not on this. Before tbe letter was presented to tbe president of the Bridge Commission Mayor Tan WyCk flew out at the Commissioner.

That did not present Commissioner James D. Bell from carrying ont the resolution. He signed the letter and It has been sent to the Corporation Counsel. There is ao much of the ridiculous about the attack made on the Commissioners that despite the annoyance felt they are amused to some extent. They fail to see what an' thority the Board of Estimate has to step into the matter.

That body haa no legal right to interfere in the premise at all. The Commissioners are accountable solely to tbe Mayor and their only adviser aside from the Mayor i the Corporation Council. They did take official action in a courteous way, as tbe circumstances demanded, to call their only superior's attention to the delay that was being experienced because of inaction on Jhe part of those Superior. That the boot should forcibly pnt on the other foot is not without a ludicrous aspect when all the faet are known. Commissioner Julian D.

Fairchild when, seen this morning declined to discos his interview with tbe Mayor further than to My: I called en the Mayor to explain matters to him. He was not ih a mood to hear explanations. He expressed Some opinions in sack a manner that I did not think it dignified to enter into an argument with him. The Commissioner will meet on Thursday when we will draw np a formal reply to tbe Mayor. Until that time I will not aay anything more on the subject, would prefer to have the press and the public wait for nor official reply.

Commissioner Bell was-eeen at his office. He refused to talk on the subject at all. A -gentleman who was present and who is a well-kiowii lawyer on both aides of the river. Mid: If wonld be well for the Maydf tq bear in mind that he that raleth his own temper ia a greater man than he who taketb a city. Mr.

Bell was aaked if he had anything to My in reply to President of the Council Randolph statement, in which that official Mid that Mr. Bell waa aa ass. Commissioner Beil laughed heartily, as he replied: Not a word. I prefer to let the public judge between ns The lawyer already referred to broke in by saying: That reminds me ef a comparison heard of one time of the relativ merits of two men. The man making tha comparison Mid of the first man: He is a grand figure of a man.

hla presence is striking and he is 'always in the forefront and apparently doing. His physical bearing is snob aa to impress strike me ia being a remarkable man, bnt tha ether fellow from the chin np fat away ahead of him. It la expected that the commissioner wilt turn the Mayor's attack into' a boomerang by atHBi of the official records and documents of their office: Commissioner Jams D.
