Serious Charges: Against » Steamer’s Cap- taln.and Surgeon. New York, Max 5.—Jacob Zaalor and his cousin, Abrabam Rinzier, deciare that Zaalor’s sister, a girl of seventeen years, was taken il aboard the ship oa April 26. An eruption broke out on her face and she was placed in the hospital. The surgeon isolated her and re- fased to allow either brother or cousin to see her. Several days after the girl's confinement in the Lospital the cousin stole into the place and he says the girl then told him that she had re- ceived no medicine nor food since her lines. A day later the young git! died and her bods | was sewed up ina rough canvas and cast into the sea. ‘The cause of death was given out as pneu- monis. ‘At quarantine, when the vessel arrived, no Feport was made of the symptoms of the disease. According to the statement that Zaalor and Ringler now make Sargeon head of the Edam when asked if the girl was dangerously ill said that she | was uot, andon being asked if she would get well, said: get well we will be detained forty days at quar- antine with all our passengers.” ‘The Edam passed up by quarantine without disinfection and it is «aid that there was no fumigation of the vessel after the death of the girl. aera ic ¥.

The trouble which began in Shea's saloon and was continued in the police patrol wagon | yesterday afternoon, as published in yesterday's ‘Sra, was ventilated in Judge Miller's court to- Emory Cole, the stone cutter, and Police- man King, the princtpal participants in the affair, were each charged with disorderly conduct and assault, and the policeman was also charged with an sssault on Policeman Far- qubar, who was among those called to help quell the disturbance.

Policeman Parham, | who went in Skea’s saloon with King, was not to be found about court when the case was | called, and so King hud to fight his battle in | | court’ without the assistance of his brother | | officer. Before the trial had proceeded very far Oticer Parham put in appearance and went ou the stand as a witness. He said that Ofi- cer hing bad his revolver out and he| (witness) took it from him. Witness | went as far as the box with King| |and Cole. King bad his nippers on Cole and the latter was refusing to go. He saw Cole | | strike King and the iatter_recurned the biows. | | Healso saw Cole kick Officer King. Witness | left them at the patrol box and took King's | pistol to the station. “What was King’s condition?” asked the court “L think he was under the influence of liquor,” was the officer's response. “What had you drank?” asked Mr. Moss, “1 drank a glass of beer.” Witness said he saw no occasion for making the arrest and he advised Usicer King against making it. ‘Ibe scene in the saloon was dc- seribed by witness as it was by other wit- neses. | ‘THE OFFICER'S PISTOL. A witness named Gillam, who had hardly re~ covered from his fright, testified that when he met Vficer King the latter drew his pistol and pointed it at him. Witness became frightened and ran out the back way. He returned and | then Otticer King renewed the trouble. During | the affair King knocked Cole's false teeth out of | his mouth, at the same time causing loss of blood. | ‘One witness said the officers and Jim Rooney were seated atatable. King, he said, took whisky and soda, Parbam took soda, but he did | not know what Kooney took. i King. when put on the stand, described the affair itd dened that he was drunk. He also said he did not take a drink in there. He also said that he gave Ofticer Parham his pistol. He testitied that a‘ter tussling for a long time he | got very weak. ‘Ihe officer charged that Cole Kicked and bit him, and also that he bit his hand. Cole told his story of the affair and said that both the officer and himseif were under the influence of liquor. He identified the false teeth produced by Officer Herbert, They were knocked out of bis mouth in the saloon. Policeman Herbert was also a witness. He answered the call from the box im the patrol wagon. Witness was certain that King was under the influence of liquor and he placed King under arrest. King, he said, aseuulted Cole in the patrol wagon. Mr. Shea's bartender was called and he | denied that there was any profane language used in the saloon as described by Officer King and said that the first of the trouble in the bar proper was when King drew his revolver. Policeman Farquhar, who went to King’s assistance, gave evidence as to profane lan- guage used toward him by King, and said that King struck him as well as he did Cole. King, he said, also threatened to arrest bim (I quhar).” He also described the conflict at the Dox, and said that King would not wait for the wagon, but started to drag his prisoner to the police station, aud on the way he struck Cole at Jeast four or five times. Fol- | lowing this he described the trouble in the patrol wagon. King also kicked witness. THE JUDGE'S QUESTION. Judge Miller raised the question of the offi- cer’s right to carry a pistol, and several officers im authority informed the court that an officer was supposed to be on duty all the time. hee he is off duty is he permitted to drink?” the judge asked Lieut. Boyle. Yes, sir.” answered the lieutenant. “Right there,” remarked the court, “if the officer is permitted to take a drink then he bas | no right to carry o pistol, and if brougat into Syeopars tox corering «= pistol at such a time ‘BS will De sent to jail. i Pehce surgeon Dr. Kleinschmidt testified to am injury received by Officer King, and this closed the testimony. Judge Miller in disposing of tho case spoke of the rights of gn officer in making an arrest and then maintaining it under proper circum- stances. in this case, however, the et found that a different state of affairs existed, The court had no doubt that the officers went in the place for the purpose of taking a drink and not to make an arrest. ‘As citizens the officers evidently had a right to go in there and take a drink, but they were no longer policemen. King brought about the entire trouble. There is nothing in the case, the judge said, to show that there was any cause to make an atrest. An officer can't get into a broil with others and then when he be- comes offended use his authority as « policeman. ‘The testimony shows a brutal as- sault by the officer all the way along. When an officer is a party to a fight and does not get into it by virtue of his office he is on the plane of every citizen and will be treated as such. The judge said he had always upheld the off- cers in ther legitimate duty and he will con- tinue to do so, but in this case there is not scintilla of evidence to show that King went in the saloon in the performance of his duty. THE OFVICER SENT TO JAIL. “The assault on the officer's part was a bratal one,” concluded the judge, “and he can go to, jail for four months, Cole is dis- charged. ‘Sentence was imposed in the case of assault on Cole apd the other charges against him were nolle prossed.

Davis in tho Olmstead will case yesterday afternoon closed his argument for the caveatee, Mr. John F. Olmstead, stating that he was confident that the jury would put all else aside and, deciding the case on its me its, sustain the will. After Tae Stan's report closed yesterday he reviewed the circumstances attending the making of Mrs. Olmstead’s will, saying that the fact that Mr. Olmstead sen: for Dr. Sowers, the confidential physician of the | Hutchinson family, was the best evidence that | he had no inventions, Dr. Sowers was willing to tell all he knew, suid Mr. Davis, be- cause he was favoring the living patient. Had Mr. Olmstead been intent upon forcing hi wife to make # will he would have done so when she was at daggers’ points with her family, when it would have been ua easy matter. It was a late day for a man to be obliged to defend conjugal affection, A wife should prefer her husband to mother or sister or the marriage would be a mockery. ‘There were but four wit- nesses for the caveator, Mr. Davis contended— Mrs. Eutebinson, Mrs. Ball, both of them parties to the case; Dr. Sowers and Miss Hutehiuson. Although it was an un- jeasnnt duty, he would charge that Mrs. Ball [ad'fabricated the whole eave, He accused Mrs. Hutchinson of prevarication und Miss Hutchinson of perjury. ‘Ihe dragging of a family skeleton into court was worse than robbery of estates. How Dr. Sowers came there, Mr. Davis intimated. was a matter for inquiry. ‘There had been cases in which inem- bers of the medical profession had eaten jail fare rather than reveal family secrets. He had told what was not true. Through him also came the information to Mrs. Ball that ker sister had made a will. ‘Ihe nurse, whose tes- timony would have been most important to Mr. Olmstead, bad disappeared, said Mr. Davis, and he claimed ske was last seen in the house of « patient of Dr. Sowers’ at Rockville. COL, TOTTEN'S CLOSING ARGUMENT. Upon the opening of the court this morning Col. Enoch Totten began the closing argument in behalf of the caveator, Mrs, Linda Hutehin- son Ball. Referring to Mrs. Hutchinson's will, he said that Mr. Wm. F, Mattingly, as the counsel of Mrs. Hutchinson, should have placed the will in a sealed packnge und then placed it n his safe. When Mr. Mattingly made a copy cof that will, he did what he should not bave done, for he had no right whatever to do such Club challenged the Baltimore club to a team match. | The challenge has been | accepted and the contest will take place | thing. ‘The estate in controversy. said Col. Totten, was nearer $700,000 than $500,000. and if this Did Mrs. Olmstead fully know the contents of her will? Ir the jury found. that she was men- tally incapabic, then it followed that she could not know the contents of her will. But if they found that she was capable of making a will, then it would be necessary to tind whether she did or did not know its contents. ‘The third issue, said Judge Cole, related to the alleged fraud and undue influence of the caveatec. Undue influence waga relative term, and the important matter to be determined what was the state of Mra.Olmstend’s mind. For what might unduly influence one mind might in- fluence the mind of another and stronger mind. ‘The jury must find that unduc influence was actually exercieed, for it would not do to merely find that oppor- tunities existed for exercising fraud or undue influence. Either of those could be easily proven by circumstantial evidence. It was Prten the most potent. ‘The evidence in the | present case all tended to prove or disprove In. this connection that fraud and undue | influence was exercised. ‘The jury were alone to determine what was or was uot proven, From all the evidence the jury should make up their verdict. What, above ail, was needed was | the truth, and he felt that the jury would have little trouble in getting at it. . ‘Referring to the will of Hayward M. Hutehir- the court said that will was not being tried here. It was evidence, however, to show the extent of the estate in controversy, and under ite provisions Mrs. Olmstead obtained on inter it which #he could devise to whom- soever she pleased. If Mrs. Olmstead made her will in her bus- Dand’s favor through affection for him, orat his reasonable solicitation, then undue influence ‘was not evercised, If, however, sbe was at all | times under his controi or domination, then it | was made under undue influence. | “As to the fourth issue—Was the will made through the frand or misrepresentation of the caveatee or others acting under him? Judge Cole said what he had said in relation to the third issue appiied to the fourth one. \ "Phe case was a most important one and should be calmly and deliberately considered. The property was Mra, Olmstead’s to dispose of 8 she alone saw fit, and if the jury believed that sho was capable of making awill; thet she fully knew its contents; that no fraud or undue influence was exercised over her, and that it was not pro- eured by the fraud or resentation of her husband or any one acting under him, then it should be eustaired. If they found other- wise, it was most important and necessary that they should say 0, and that the estate should go to the dead woman's own blood. ‘THE JURY RETIRES. ‘The jury were then handed the issues and re- tired to their room at 2:05.

"Again, referring to the will of Mrs. Hutchin- son, Col. Totten said the production of the will in open court during the trial by Mr. Olmstead was the most extraordinary act he had ever known. Mrs. Hutchinson last saw her will in her desk at the Sitka, It bad been shown that the following March Mr. Olmstead obtained th keys of that desk and overhauled its contents. To thst will Olmstead had no more right than the speaker or any member of the jury, and in retaining it the caveatee believed that he could not only secure his wife's half of the estate, but also the other halt. THE ONE OBJECT OF THE CAVEATEE, ‘The will prepared by Gen. Jeffries for Hay- ward M. Hutchinson, and which Mr. Hutebin- gon refused to sign because it gave his wife practically nothing, was fathered by Mr. Olm- ead and prepared by man in hisemploy, It was a step to gain possession of the Hutchinson | estate, but it failed, and then the man ondeav- ored to persuade Mrs. Hutchinson to break the will, falsely stating to her that she had nothing under her husband’s will. ‘That effort wns also a fuilure, and then Mr. Oimsterd compélied bis | girl wife to accuse her dearly beloved and lov- | was dismissed.

Of course, the lady enters the room first, as the old custom of coming in arm-in-arm has quite gone out. If the first arrivals are strangers they are intro- duced, and the hostess also introduces the gen- tleman to the lady he is to take in to dinner if they are strangers. Young ladies are not in- vited with their parents to formal dinners, and it is usually arranged to have an equal number of ladies and gentlemen among the guests, though often a man may be included who has no one to take in, Following the usual custom, the host, when dinner is announced, leads the way with the lady guest of honor, the hostess coming down last of all with the gentleman of most importance. If the dinner is large, the hostess may introduce the gentlemen to the ladies they are to take ina short time before the announcement. If the company is small, she says simply: “Mr. H., will you take in Miss B.” and the name cards at the places seat the guests, Dinner a In Russe is served in London at fashiouable houses with everything carved off | the table by ecrvants.

NOW ROYALTY TRAVELS. ‘The Salvons in Which Queen Victoria Makes | Her Trips. r on Qneen. the Lon. here are claim to have traveled mors. mules on the sail- way than her majesty the queen. quite safe to say that during the past twenty- five years the queen has traveled considerably over 40,000 miles on the iron roud. not to speak of the many railway journeys taken before the seventies. During this period the three eys- tems which her majesty has chiefly patronized are the London and Northwestern, the South- western and the Great Western, the lines of the former being used for the greater portion of the journey to Balmoral, the Southwestern lines for the journey from Osborne to London and those of the Great Western for the removal of the queen and court from London to Wind- sor. part of the ‘The royal saloons forming a queen’a train ran by the London and North- western Company are two in number and are generally coupled to ten or cleven ordinary carriages set apart for the use of the suite. The saloons are connected by » gangway and are devoted solely to the use of her majesty. While every effort in the direction of comfort has been ‘made the carriages are in no way noted for their Inxurionsness and rather show the quiet simplicity which itis known the queen prefers. ‘The floors, an authori us, “are 1 deeply carpeted and the sides and roof thickly Ided with quilted silk to deaden the noise and vibration of the train, from which, as is weil known, her majesty suffers. To reduce this to a minimum she, by her own desire, trav- els to and from Scotland ata speed marked y bolow that which the meanest of her subjects can command any evening in the week for the modest payment of a penny per mile. One of the saloons is fitted as a bed room, the other as | a sitting room, and between the two is # lnva- tory whose basin and fittings in metal, chased and gilt. deserve to be mentioned as works of art.” ‘The queen always prefers hair mattresses to beds composed of feathers. Elaborate precautions are taken by the off- cials of the company to insure the safety of her majesty when traveling. ‘The royal train is al- ways preceded by a pilot engine, which clears the live some fifteen minutes in advance. Within that time the rails are kept sacred and no vehicle of any kind is allowed to run until ‘the royal train bas passed. A trustworthy au- thority states that a printed order is issued to every station master, sigualman and platelayer along the route, showing what time the special is expected to pass them in their respective dis- tricts. A circular is issued to all those drivers and firemen whose trains are to be on the route. informing them where to put in and shunt for the royal special. ‘The greatest possible care is taken to insure safety. As the train passes the station master and his staf are out upon the platform some time before she is due, to in- spect all the crossing gates in the district and to appoint some ons to watch them. The siding polnts are spiked, so that any evil-disposed per- son, or thoughtless servant, could not possibly thwart the intention of the directors to run ber majesty’s train under circumstances tending to secure safety. The train baving passed, an- other fifteen minutes is allowed toelapse before ‘the line is reopened for ordinary trafic. Her majesty is always provided with a time table printed oo hand-made paper in violet ink, with it e8. In connection with her majesty’s journeys on the English and Scottish lines, it is a never- tailing practice for the head ofticers of the rail- way companies to accompany the queen's train over the whole length of the respective lines. ‘As the London and Northwestern Company not only supplies the saloons and vehicles compos- ing the train, but also carries out the entire correspondence tor organizing ‘the details of each of the journeys, it han been the custom tor one of its chief officers to sveom! the train throughout its whole course. Mr. G. P. Neele, it is interesting to note, completed in June last bis 100th journey in charge of the train on behalf of his company. Upon this fact becoming known to the queen, she, through Gen. Sit Henry Ponsonby, presented him with an elegant massive chiming clock. ‘The two saloons which her majesty used on her continental journeys are remarkable for their luxury and comfort. They are the private property of the queen. Kept at Brussels at the Gare du Nord, they are placed at the of the Empress Frederick when she visits England. These carriages, which are con- nected by a passage, are fitted with electric Deils and lighted with oil lamps, as the queen does not like the electric light for reading or writing. The day saloon is furnished with sofas, armchairs of various kinds and foot- stools, all covered with blue silk. The walls are hung with blue and silk, brocaded with the rose, shamrock and thistle in yellow. ‘There is a writing table of walnut wood, two small tables and one large one on which meals are served during the journey. The floor is covered with an Indian t of dark piue and the curtains are blue and white. ‘The sleeping saloon, in its way, is as fine as the drawing room car. e dressing room is decorated s la Japanese, and the floor is covered with bamboo. There is a white metal bath and the toilet set and large basins on the washstand—whichare covered with dark morocco—are of the same material. The bed room is decorated in gray and light brown and contains two beds, the largest of which is oc- cupied by the queen and the amaller one by incess Beatrice. ‘There is another compart- ment in which two maids sleep. ‘The royal carriage provided for her majesty by the Great Western Railway Company isquite equal in comfort and appointments to the sa- loon built by ite rivalcompany. The train generally consists of eight carringes, the royal saloon being the largest. The carriage is some- what similar in design tos Puliman car aud basa ne paige at each end, one o: which is occupied by the Indies in waiting and the other by the body servant who may be in attendance upon her majesty.

Necessarily he carries over bodily idiom | after idiom, and as his knowledge of English | was scarcely greater than his knowledge of French, the jumble and confusion that re- sulted may be easily imagined. For example, ‘one of hie familiar phrases is: “It must never to langh of the unhappies.” and another: “He | burns oneself the brains,” which any French scholar will recognize at once as literal irans- lations, or ratber traductions. The author gives his readers the following humorous anec- dote: “One-eyed was laid against a man which had good eyes that he saw better than him. ‘The party was accepted. ‘Ihave gain over.” said the one eyed; ‘why, I see you two eyes, and you not look me who’one?’” All Californians are familiar with Chinese English, and of late have been made ac- quainted with the attempts of the Japanese to master the intricacies of English, some of waich, by the way, are very «musing.
