The Marriage in New York of Mr. Samuel Ward's Granddaughter— Personal Notes of Interest. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney have in their stables at their mountain home near Lenox at least twenty horses. The mountain which Mr. Whitney bought for his son is charming these autumn days. Their cemp and cottage are furnished in antique fashion, with plenty of old mahog- any furniture, cretonne and muslin cur- tairs, and in the cottage there are dia- mond-paned windows, and a big fireplace made of the rough stones which abound in the vicinity. Mugs and plates of old pewter adorn the walls, with queer oval mirrors, and, of course, there is a settle.

Work upon the new public school on 21st street between K and L streeis northwest, to be known as the Stevens School, has ceased. The workmen refuse to continue unless they are paid, and the contractor, T. E. Cabell, is sald to be away behind in his bills. The District Commissioners are beco:ning very tired of this manner of bulldjng school houses, and as heretofore state in The Star, they will urge a change in the sys- tem _as soon as Congress convenes. To build school buildings by day’s labor appears to them to be about the proper method. There is con- siderable opposition to this day’s lavor proposition on the part of several of the big material men, and it is sald that a great effort will be made on their part to defeat any such legislation as that pro- posed by the Commissioners. Returning to the Stevens School house trouble, tt will be recalled that some time ago @ committee of material men appeared before the Commissioners. The contractor was present at the hearing, and upon the suggestion of the Commissioners, he gave each one of them an order upon the auditor for the full amount of his bill, to be paid them as soon as the money was available. When a voucher went through, the men presented themselves at the auditor's office, but there was not money enough to pay the bills in full, and each man received a pro rata of the whole. This morning a number of material men presented themselves before Commissioner ‘Truesdell. They laid the facts before the Commissioner and asked for relief. They were under the impression that the auditor would pay them upon the voucier given by the contractor. This, however, the auditor refused to do until he could consult the contractor. The Commissioner promised to sive the men a hearing tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. when the mosey due the con- tractor wil be apportioned.

James, fer dissolution of partner- ship and for an accounting, in which the bill charged the defendant, James, with having overdrawn his account as a clerk by the amount of $177 in three months, and with having overdrawn his account as a partner by the sum of $250, Mr. James, through Attorney Edwin Sutherland, today filed his answer. Mr. James admits a verbal agreement of partnership, but denies that he agreed to the terms and conditions of an alleged written article of agreement set out in the bill; denies that a written contract was “mutually dcemed to be unnecessary:”” denies that the articles referred to ‘“‘cor- rectly and truly” represent the contract between him and complainant; denies that the partnership was only to continue for three months; admits that complainant was to put in capital, consisting of cash and stock, and that defendant was to con- tribute his time and services, which, he insists, is just as much capital as the con- tribution of complainant; denies that in- terest in the capital, stock and fixtures was not to pass to defendant; denies that com- plainant had any intention of procuring defendant's services as a clerk, to be com- pensated by the problematical, conjectural and uncertain method as a share in the profits, or that such was the understand- ing of defendant, or that such an arrange- ment was in fact made; denies that com- plainant “discovered circumstances which caused him to desire to sever his relatio: with the defendant as speedily as possible; denies that his account as a clerk was overdrawn by the sum of $177, or his part- nership account $20, and asserts that, on the contrary, an accounting will show to be now due him as a clerk, $2.91, and as a partner an additional amount, at present unknown; denies that the complainant paid out on account of the commission business $191.11 In excess of receipts; asserts that this last item has been wilifully misrepre- sented; alleges that complainant eratitltous- ly, wantonly and without probable cause, assailed the integrity and honesty of de- fendant without giving him an opportunity to vindicate and maintain his reputation, end esserts that an accounting will fully vindicate the defendant in all matters in dispute between himself and defendant.
