ROCKLAND COUNTY VOL. XL, NO. 20. H A VERSTRAW, N. Y., FEBRUARY 3, 1900. PRICE FIVE CENTS. RAINE'S RUM LAW. Commissioner Lyman's Annual Report Received. OVER $12,000 PAID IN The Machine by Booze Dispensers.? Denounces Nickel-in-the- Slot Hachines. The Times Is in receipt of the fourth nnniial report of Commissioner H. H. Lyman, of the Excise Department. In the figures for Rockland County as shown on pago 80 of the report. The total amount paid for certificates of all kinds was ; of thisnmonntthe State received $11,009.52. The different towns received $22,019.03. liebatos $1,071.50 and the County Treasurer re- ceived $1,071.50 in fees. The commissioner publishes many suggestions and recommendations as to the enforcement of the law. Commis- sioner Lyman is particularly opposed to the use of slot machines, and says In part: The so-called \slot machine nuisance\ is a matter which has required and re- ceived much attention from this depart- ment within the last two years. This form of cheap and extremely demoraliz- ing gambling seemed to spread itself throughout the whole State with mush- room like growth. While it was not con- fined exclusively to saloons and places where liquors were dispensed, these were the places where the nuisance flourished most. The various kinds of machlne g upon which numerous games could be played for very small stakes, viz., from one to five cents, made it particularly at. tractive to boys and poor men. It was early apparent that these gam- bling devices largely maintained by liquor dealers were doing great injury ; that in many instances school children were encouraged to enter saloons and al- lowed to gamble. Many very poor men and women, often with needy families? without capital enough to get into the regular games of professional gamblers- were feeding their money to these cun- ning devices for robbing the poor. Rob- bers and swindlers usually look for victims among those who have something worth while, but this soulless thief plunders the child of his only penny and the vagrant of his last nickel. As the operation of these devises came ' within the prohibition of the liquor tax law, this department began a systematic movement for their removal from all places where liquors are sdld and has succeeded in substantially ariviug them from the saloons of the State, Recognizing the evil they did and their rapid increase, the legislature last Winter passed a rigorous law for their suppression, which gave tho right of seizure without process to constables and other peace officers, but policemen were slow to enforce the same, usually giving as a reason for non-enforcement that they were not allowed to enter sa- loons except in case of a disturbance. These machines were very profitable, requiring no extra expense for rent or attendants and in some places paying as much as fifty to two hundred dollars per month to the party running them. The inventors and owners thereof (for they aio usually rented to thosa who run them) uiade u strenuous iigu* in the courts, but the machines were decided to be gambling devices, and hence came within the liquor tax law. Attempts to evade the law were then made by mak ing a machine so as to give music or something of little or no value for the niokel and still retain the gambling fea- ture by giving from two to forty nickels according to the color hit upon by the luck of the player. Tbo advent and operation of slot machines showing ob- scene piotnres is one of the latest and most vlcions phases of the nefarions business and one whioh undoubtedly will be promptly surpressed by the criminal authorities. For the year endiug September 30, 1899, the department has brought 23 salts against peopic operating these ma- ' chines, and so far has colleoted $9,010 In fines and bonds for forfeited on ac- count of their operation and has yet seven oases pending. It also has three judgments of over $3,000 in cases on ap- peal and many cases brought and pend- ing since the end of the fiscal year npon which judgments undoubtedly will be recovered. Some of the strongest surety companies have deolined to go, or longer remain, on bonds where the slot machine is kept; and the brewers and backers of retail dealers have also taboood them. FOR MAGAZINE SITE. Captain Swift Denies the Purchase of lona Island For This Purpose. Some few weeks since, the Times told of the employment of Mr. Chas. M. Hil- ton, the civil engineer, by L. H. Mnce & Co., the big wooden goods manfacturer and owners of tho lona Island property. The map was to show iti detail every rock, tree, road and path on the Island and was to be an exact pictnre of the topographical condition of tho propertv. The order of the owner to Mr. Hilton was to complete the work ns rapidly and as accurately as possible. This gave rise to the report that tho Island was to be sold to a manufacturing concern, which intended to build a big factory. Another, report was that the probable purchaser was the Unlted.Statos Government for the erection of a navaj magazine station. It has been known for some tiiue that tho Federal author- ities were iu search of a suitable site and were very anxious to acquire ono on the shoreß of some bay or river within a few hours sail of Now York City. Color was given to this report by the action of the owners in insisting on hav\ ing the map In detail, as it is u well? known fact, that tUe government is one of the most difficult of buyers to sell to as every detail of /iny transaction must be full and complete. Captain Swift who is In charge of the ordinance department of the Brooklyn navy yard and would in all probability have the purchasing power, was asked on Tuesday if the Government had pur- chased the island, and be replied that it had not done so. He further said the Government wanted to purchase a site and bad under consideration fifty differ- ent Uocations. The Government wants a site suffi- ciently large to permit the erection of storehouses with a capacity of 200,000 tons of explosives. The island would make an ideal place for a magazine. There are no buildings within a half mile of the island except the few shanties on Round Island at the Donovan trap rock works. The present hotel and pavilion would probably be used for employes. Mr. Hilton with his staff of assistants will in a few days have completed their labors, when the facte as to the pur- chase will become known. BLUE RIBBONS AWARDED Two Ciarnerville Gentlemen at the Poultry Show. The Messrs. Alex. Young and Andrew Hall of Garnervllle attended the eleventh annual show of the New York Poultry Pigeon and Pet Stock Association at the Madison Square Garden on Wednesday evening. Mr. Young had a fine pair of Muscovy duoks on exhibition and was awarded two blue ribbons, the female capturing first prize and the male fifth. Mr. Hall, who is a great pigeon fancier, had a fine oollectiou of tbo birds there, such as jacoblnes, pouters and carriers, making fifty-eight iu all. and was award- ed six first prizes. These two gentle- men have tho finest collection of fowls and pigeons in the county. The Dominie Frightened. A team of horses owned by liveryman David Mackey and driven by Robert Dowd became unmanageable while re- turning from the funeral of Dr. House, on Tuesday afternoon. The team dashed down Broadway with the heavy coach swaying and the driver tugging at the reins, until they reached nearly In front of Judge Hartt's office, when Constable John Call, who saw the team was beyond control, ran out and just managed to catch a firm grip ou the brlddle rein of one of the horses, bringing them to a standstill. The coach had no sooner stopped than out jumped the Rev. Mr. Bonsall, looking a trifle pale. While the constable held the horse Mr. Dowd changed the reins on the curb bit, and inducing the dominie to re-enter the coach, whirled him off to the Presbyter- ian rectory before the crowd that had gathered could ask any onestlons. TRUST HAS GONE UP. Report of Collapse in Cir- culation Yesterday. There was a persistant report in circu- lation, yesterday, that the brick trust had practically colapsed. they having i failed to tnko advantage of several op- tions hold on dilferent brick properties and thai many of tho yards alleged to have been acquired l>y the trnst wonld revert back to the original owners. Tho failure of the rapid transit tunnel commission to have the tunnel construct, od with brick, is said to have causxl tho trust to abandon its plans. OBITUARY. MICHAEL P. SLINEY. Mr. Michael P. Sliuey, died at the home of his father ou Third St., this vil- lage, at 10 o'clock on Sunday morning from consumption,aged twenty-six years Mr. Sliney was born in this village and was the youngest of the Sliney children. As he grew to manhood he was a bright and popular young man of exemplary habits, and after graduating from the pnblic school, took a course of business instruction in a Poughkoepsie business college. He remained continuously with hlg father in business, until Mr. Sliney retired from business and removed to Yonkers, where he was employed in a clerical capacity by one of the large mills in that city, until be was attacked by that fatal malady, which to the SUney family has indeed been fatal, Mrs, Roaer (Miss Nora Sliney) and Mr. William Sliney having died from the same dis. ease a few years since. The deceased was of a particularly humorous and bouyant nature and when a few weeks since he learned of the nature ol his malady he went to the city to conbult with one of the best known of the lung specialists, and being told of the doctor's fee for a course of treatment, humorously asked what guar- antee would be given that a cure would beaffected. The medicine man and he parted the best of friends, although he would not take the treatment, which his iudulgent father wanted him to ; Faying he already owed more than he could re- pay and did not want to cause a greater out lay, when there was no hope for him. HU bnoyancy and light heartedness never deserted him and he was about the streets until Thursday of last week, talk ing with his friends and acquaintances To his intimate lriends be would talk of the end with a calm and happy demeanor. The inclemency of the weather on Fri- day and Saturday ppevented his going out. He was apparently no worse. Ou Suuday morning he ute breakfast with the family and shortly thereafter was taken with a violent hemorrhage, that rapidly consumed his remaining vitality. After the passing of a particularly vio- lent hemorrhage, he turned to his aged father who was weeping bitterly by the bedbide and asked him nut to crj, say. ing, he was happy and prepared and he hud neither pain or ache, and in a few minutes died peaoeful aud happy. His funeral was held from his late home on Wednesday in truing to St. Putur's Church, of which he was a devot- ed commuuicant ; where a solemn high mass of requiem was offared up for the repose of his soul. The luterement was in the family plot in St, Peter's cemetery, under the direct- ion of Undertakers Shankey & Burke. Besides his father, Mr. Sliney is sur- vived by one sister, Mrs, Frank Mug u I re; one brother, Mr. Thomas Sliuey and a ousiu ; a foster sister, Miss Mary A. Horton, who have the entire sympathy of the community. WILLIAM S. HOUSE. Dr. Wlfliam S. House, the veteran physician aud surgeou, died at his home on West Broad Street, Saturday morn- ing, after an lllnesß lasting more than two years. Dr. House was born in Clarkstowu on May 18th, 1887, and was the son of Cap- tain Garret 0. Hout-e, formerly a promi- nent business man of this village. Upon gradnating, Dr. House entered the inedl- bal department of the University of the City of New York and by close and dili- gent studying graduated as an M. D., |m 1856; when but little more than twenty one years of age. Dr. House first practiced hie profession in Spring Valley, where he remained for I eleven years, coming to Haverstr.iw in 1809, and has since continued tho prac- tice of his profession uninterruptedly, nntil a few months »-lnce, when his in- firmities became such as to prevent him. *? His first illness dates back about two years, when he was stiiken with a slight attack of paralysis. From this he never recovered and gradually failed in health and spirit and became so feble as to bo A unable to attend to any business or prac- tice. He was keenly Hlive to tne state of his health, nnd when a few months j ago he was supcrseeded by a younger and more enerjelic man as Railway Physician to this division of the West Shore?a position he has held from the construction of the ro td?he told his friends the change was for the best, but he would like to have stayed to the end ; which was not far away. v Dr. House in his professional capacity lias attended almost every residentin this ' villace of thirty years ago. Iu his younger days he was almost everybody's doctor. The secrets of family jars and trouble he '' has smoothed, no one eVt r knew ; the. distressed relieved.it would bo imposst- bio to estimate ; the service rendered P with no hope of fee or reward, will nevor be told. He had a pleasing personality, 1 friendly with all, and to know him so- 0 cially was to know a delightful enter- ? tainer and one it was a pleasure to visit. 11 Memory carries the writterbackahalf \j score of years when he was in an official capacity obliged to visit the doctor and * there was no hours spent so pleasantly as those in the cozy little office. In bis c business life he was all that could be de- sired, while for his family, no father could be more Indulgent; in bis sons who were then attaining their majority his hopes were centered; but its al' over, and the good citizen, geniat friend, a has gone to that bourne we all must a some day. p His funeral was held on Tuesday after- 1 noon, the religious and masonic services being held in the Central Presbyterian * Church. The church being thronged n with people from every walk In life, who 8 bad known him. Nearly all the physi- 1 clans in the vicinity leing present. '1 he fuueral was under the direction of Stony Point Lodge, F. &A. M., of which the deceasen had been for many years a devoted member, In politics Dr. House was a sterling Democrat and a warm admirer of former Senator Hill. He never would accept public office. '' Ho is survived by a widow, onedaugh- ter, Miss Bessie, and two sons, Garre t \ 0., a civil engineer and DeWitt, of thig village. Although for years he was in receipt of a large income from his profession, Dr. d House left but little worldly wealth, j, other than the residence on West Broad St., but he has left memories more price- less than gold, MBS.

Outcome of the Rockland Lake Trap Rock Litigation. ASK FOR§SO,OOO INDEMNITY One of the Largest Amounts Ever Sued for In a Rockland County Court. Papers were served in another action growing out of the Weiant-Conklin & Foss litigation ever the trap rock qnar- ries at Kockland Lake. Mrs. Laura A, Weiant is the plaintiff and the Rockland Lake Trap Rock Works, Jacob E. Conk- lin and Wilson P. Foss, the defendants. The amount sued for is sjSO.OOO, nnd is for damages for trespassing upon the property of the plaintiff and taking from her land rook which they crushed in their crushers an>l sold. The suit will come up for trial at the May term of the Supreme Court over which Judge Dickey is to preside. The amount of damages asked for is the largest ever asked for at the hands of a Rockland County jury and will bo certain to be w&tched with interest not only by owners of trap rock crushers but by lawyers and citizens, owing to the notoriety already attained by the parties to the suit in the previous litigation. The damages will have to be proven, the valae and amount of stone taken, and all other necessary matters to make a case will have to be shown by the plaintiff. This of course will take much time, and as the defendants are certain to make the bitterest kind of a fight and will likely have the aid of other quarry men who may possibly incur similar suits by reason of not closely regarding the division line of properties. The successful efforts of Mrs. Weiant to get possession and establish the boun. dar£ lines of her property at Rockland Lake has been before the courts in one form or another almost continuously for the past two years. The first suit was over the disputed boundary line. The Trap Rock Cora, pany claiming their land extended sever- al feet farther West to the pitch of the mountain. This was disputed by Mrs Weiant who was represented by her son' Fred, the result being that after an exl tended trial before Judge Garretson the Weiant contention was sustained and a decision given in Mrs. Weiant's favor last July. The decision in favor of Mrs. Weiant was a sweeping one, and was a severe blow to the trap rock people, as by lt ( they were obliged to remove all their iron pipes used tor conveying the com- pressed air to the drills on the mountain side; the machinery and other toolß found to be on Mrs. Weiant's land. Then followed motion after motion to stay and prevent the execution of the court's verdict, so that it is now one of the historical law suits. A motion was made before Judge Barnard by the Trap Rock Company to stay all proceedings pending an appeal. This was denied, there was contempt proceedings. Judge Garretson then made au order direction Sheriff Blauvelt to remove the iron compressed air pipes, and other personal property from the land. This was temporarily held up, but finally, in accordance with the order, tho Sheriff j obtained posossiou of tho land. Then au attempt was made before Judge Garretsou to allow the Rock Com- pany to i e-connect the pipe and replace the personal property removed by the Sheriff, this was also denied. William McCuuley is attorney for Mrs. Weiant in this action, as he has been In all the preceedlng litlgatloL, The Trap Ruck Company will probably be defended by Irving Browu. Editor Drake Recovering. Editor Frank Drake, who has been ill with typhoid fever (or a number of weeks, during which bis life was at times de- spaired of. is improving at least and will soon occupy his accustomed chair in the sanctum of the Goshen Independent Republican. Uood men are too few to permit of their taking away in the prime of manhood, and Brother Drake is one of the best of mortals.? Newburgh Register. SLOT MACHINE RAID. Raines Law Inspectors Get Evi- dence Against One Place. Two Raines law Inspectors dropped Into town on Tuesday and before they departed Wednesday afternoon had strnck terror into the heartß of several of the saloon keepers. They gave the names of Donnelly and Sllcer and ac- cording to later developments said they came in response to a complaint made by a local clergyman to the department about the nickel-in the-slot machines in the various bar-rooms around town. The only places where any evidence could bo found was in the saloon kept by Springstead & McVeigh, on New Main St. The inspectors played the machine and then asked the bartender for his name, and gave their mission. They then started out to play the machines, in the other places, where thoy wore sup- posed to be kept. No other machines were found. The Inspectors then wen} before Judge Christie, obtained a war- rant charging the firm with maintaining a gambling device and thereby violating the Raines Rum Law. When Captain Call went to serve the warrant the machine had disappeared.so that the Captain could not destroy the machine as is directed by the law. The firm appeared before judge Christie on Thursday morning, waived examination and gave ball for their ap- pearance before the grand jury, when they will be wanted. The clergyman whose name was signed to the letter sent to the excise department,denies he made the complaint, but says be is opposed to tbe nickel in the slot machine. The clergyman letter 6tory may be like the letter claimed to have boen sign- ed by William Nolan last summer, when the \rum spies\ were around \spotting'' certificates. The excise department have been chasing the slot machines In the villages and cities of Orange County for the last few weeks and made captures in Newbnrgh.Middletown and other places. A saloon keeper named Crouse was caught in Mlddletcwn last Friday. The story of how he came to be landed is told by the Mercury, as follows: \A policeman served a notice on a saloon keeper to clean the snow off his sidewalk, when tbe saloon keeper retorted had'nt you better look after Crouses machines before yon bother about my walk.\ So the clergyman story is probablv like the Nolan and Sidewalk story. It 1* almost Impossible to get a con victlon under the Raines law, and if the grand jnry should fail to indict, and if ihdlcted, a petit jury fails to convict, the usual course is to have tbe license revok- ed and then sne tbe saloon keepers for the penalty. Getting Political Snaps. The Republican managers are trying to heal the \differences\ that exists among the faithful in this county. The Tompkins-Lexow feud that fouud vent at New City last Fall at the Repnbllcan County Convention when Tompkins \jammed\ through his resolution giving him the Cjunty Committee, and the subsequent action of the Tompkins Committee in deposing Henry E Smith, a pronounced Lexow man, as chairman, was resented so bitterly at the polls that something it was foaud necessary to be done toward healing the heart-uchos and revengeful tires that have since continued to burn in the bosoms of tho \turned down.\ The vengeance has been partly appeased by several of the henchmen being quited down by landlug them in soft political snaps in Albany, Henry E. Smith, the former chairman of the County Committee and Clerk to the Capitol Commission, has been ap- pointed clerk to one of the legislative committees. Supervisor Alex Rose, of Stony Point, was In Albany several days last week, he also was appointed to it $5.00 per day clerkship, but when the member of the County legislature from Stony Point reached the State Capitol and learned the position was only temporary and could not last longer thau the adjourn- ment of the legislature and that in ad. ditlon to this he would have to be in Albany at least live days in each woek to earn his salary he concluded he did not wout the job, and promptly told the party managers ho would see them later, packed bW traveling grip and returned to tho comforts and pleasures of his home at the light house. Frederick Glassing, of this village, Is back in bis old position as one of the Capitol order bys or guides. Thomas M. Jones, of Nyaok, Is another of the favored ones. He is an assistant to the Superintendent of the Capitol Building, i i FOR JUROR'S PAY. A Fnll Text of Assemblyman Demarest's bill. THE RAMAPO WATER GRAB. metropolitan Water Brigands flaking A Big Fight.?Our Assemblyman is Very Busy at the Capitol. The work of the logislatnro goes along quite smoothly now, that Governor Roosevelt has won his fight and succeed- ed in getting \Loa\ Payn out of the State Insurance Department. The des- perate and determined light against j'rayn, waged by the Governor, can only be ascertained by a close reading be- tween the lines. The singular attack on tiie 3tato Trust Company and the conse- quent esposnre of the Superintendent's transactions are pointed to significantly and shows to what depths a politician of the Governor's calibre will reach, when a purpose is to be accomplished. Now, that Payn's successor is to be confined by the machine, the State Trust Com- pany and Payn \Incidents\ are closed. The Republican's, not satisfied with squandering the nine million' dollar canal appropriation, woald like the pleasure of handling sixty-two more million of the peoples money, and then just think of it Mr. Taxpayer, fifty eight million dollars is wantsd to pay the ex- pense of ruining the State. Is it, then, any wonder that an Indirect scheme of taxation, such as the tax on mortgages to aid the liaine's rum law, is being devised. The Republican's have full sway, not even a hurdle in their path, and they alone, must be held re- sponsible for the reckless squandering of the people's money. Assemblyman Frank P. Demarest is one of the best informed members of the Assembly and Is also one of the busiest. He is one of the leading members of the committee on the revision of the laws. His very brief, yet very powerful bill, to relieve the city of New York from an- other attack of the water brigands and the release of the people of the Counties embraced in the Ramapo grab, has caus- ed him much notoriety and the rich and powerful corporation will leave no stone unturned to fight the little giant for his intrepidity in daring to play dentist with the set of Ivories it was hoped would one day bo fustened doep .In the New York city taxpayers. Mr. Demarest is also hard at work try- ing to push his Juror's Pay Law to a suo} cessfull termination. The bill amends section 3814 of the Code of Civil proced nre. and is as follows. Supervisors may make allowance to grand and trial jurors.?\ln the conn- ties within the city of Now York the municipal assembly,\ and in any other county the board of supervisors, may direct that a sum, not exceeding two dollars in addition to the foes prescrib- ed in the last section, or in any other statutory provision, be allowed to each grand juror, and ouch trial jnror for each day's attendance at a term of a court of record of civil or criminal juris- diction, held within their connty, except that in the connty of Westuhester \and the county of Rockland,\ grand and trial jnrors may be allowed a sum by the bmrd of supervisors not exceeding three dollars for a day in addition to the other fees prescribed by the last section, If a different rate is not otherwise estab- lished as herein provided, each juror is eutitled to live cents for oaoh mile neces. sarlly traveloj by him in goiug to and returning from the term, but such muni- oipal assembly or board of supervisors may establish a lower late. A juror i« entitled to a mileage for actual travel once iu each calendar week during the tarin,. except that in the counties of Queens \ai>d Rockland,\ grand and trial jnrors may be paid four oents a mile for , each mile necessarily traveled in goiug to and returning for each day oi\ actual travel during the term in lieu of any other mileage. The snm so established or allowed must be paid by the county treasurer upon the certificate of the clerk of the court, stating tha number ol days that the juror actnally attended, and the number of miles traveled by him in order to attend.
