MOUNT VERNON. Acting City Judge Bennett has decided to hold Michael ar.d the two Italian cousins who had an encounter last week, to await the action of the Grand Jury on the counter charges of murderous assault. Both have furnished bonds and are again at liberty. It is understood that the members of a local mission have interested in the case of Michael Patrono, the one accidentally shot himself with a poisoned bullet, and will endeavor to secure his release. A young woman who is working in the mission in to The Tribune says- "Michael Patrono.

who is a talented Italian mechanical engineer and inventor, has been shadowed for almost two years and constantly threatened with assassination by two cousins, who are brothers. He has applied in vain to have them bound over to keep the peace and for permission to carry some weapon to defend himself. This his cousins knew, and suppored him to be unarmed on the night they made the attack. Many can testify that Michael has avoided in every way meeting: these men and that his life has been in continual danger. He says that he fully expected to lie assassinated." Jeremiah R.

THE MOT-NT rBBJfOM POLICE FORBID THE EXHIBITION AS A VIOLATION OF THE SUNDAY LAW. The Mount Vernon police, at the request of clergymen of that city, last night stopped a Spiritualistic seance which had been advertised to take place in the local opera house, on the ground that It would be a violation of the Sunday law. Some of the Spiritualists are Indignant, and they threaten to bring a suit for damages against the city. The meeting was to have been held by Dr. Alexander Hume and his wife, and several assistants and alleged mediums, who had just arrived In this country from England.

A delegation called on Mayor Fiske and said that paraphernalia was to be used to cause the spirits to perform their alleged feats, which made the affair come under the laws regulating theatrical entertainments. The protests were so numerous that at 3 o'clock Mayor Fiske and Chief Foley warned P. J. Ring, manager of the opera house, not to permit the affair to go on. Mr.

Ring and Mr. Hum-, although denying the right of the- police and ministers to stop the seance, postponed II until to-night. The postponement was dec! upon too late to give notice to the public, and persons who had expected to attend the seance knew nothing about it until they reached the opera house.

Kansas City, Feb. A E. Stillwell, builder of the Kansas City, Plttsburg and Gulf Railroad, and Its former president, said in the course of an address at a complimentary dinner given him at the Baltimore Hotel: i have in mind another project that I am about ready to spring, wnich, if successful, will be of far greater benefit to Kansas City than ever was the Pittsburg and Gulf. It Is one which will give to Kansas City the trade of the Orient, one that I believe will be as beneficial even as the building of the Nicaragua Canal. If It was possible to build a short line to the Oulf it is just as easy to build a short line in another direction.

When seen later Mr Stillwell declined to make known any definite plans he may have, it is said he will attempt to promote a railroad from Kansas City to the I'acific Coast. PRESIDENT OF NEW RAILROAD. Warsaw. N. Feb.

Bayonne is almost as much concerned in having: the nuisance abated as is Staten Island, for when the wind is from the south or east the smoke blows into Bayonne. The movement for the abolition of the smoke nuisance started in Staten Island, but it is now expected that not only will many local interests take up the matter, but that the steamship lines will aid in urging the passage of the bill. Sandy Hook pilots, Including the New-York and New- Jersey men, have taken the matter up. and are going to do all they can to secure the passage of the bill.

Some Sandy Hook pilots say they would sooner encounter a tog than the smoke. When a tog comes they can slow down or stop, while, when the smoke comes upon them suddenly, they cannot see through it and are always In danger of running into vessels. They say that a collision in the Bay about a year ago was caused by the smoke. One ship was approaching the smoke and had reached it when the bow of ship loomed up Just ahead, and before the bridge was clear of the smoke the two vessels were in collision. Three lives were lost in this accident.

The pilots are now enlisting the captains and owners of vessels in the support of the bill. The Staten Island ferryboat captains and pilots have also taken sides in favor or the bill, ana say that the smoke is the greatest danger they encounter. They are frequently delayed by it. and have had several narrow escapes from collision because of it. Only recently a boat had a narrowescape from running upon Bobbins Reqf because of the smoke.

The boatowners of Newark and Elizabeth have also given assurance of their support. One of Singer Machine Company's boats ran on the Dumb Beacon two years ago because, the captain Bald, he lost his way into the Kills because of the smoke. Towboat owners and the coal carrying lines running to Port Morris and Perth Am boy are to be asked to aid in securing favorable action upon the bill. The Staten Island Chamber of Commerce will hold a public meeting on February 20 to take action in support of the Muller bill, and a delegation from the Chamber will attend the hearing on the bill at Washington on February 27.
