Newronr, R. 1., June §, 1810. ‘The past five ye have done wonders for New- port. While many watering places have been drift- ing about with an uncertain fate, Newport has been putting down more anchors, until now it bas a Janded and social stability that no adverse mmfa- ences can shake, It 1s of a}! resorts the peouliar re- ort, It is now regarded among Americans that no summer retreat can exist without hotels, Newport 4s an example where this general proposition does not obtain, About six years age there were the Betlevue, Aquidueek, the Fulmore, Attantio and Ocean Houses, and to-day Dut three of these exist; two have vbeea destroyed, aud Newport now seems tolive wit its maximum namber of hotels, The moet inguential landors complain ditterly about this detertoration, and ascnive i wo we deleterious growth of the exclusive amd aristocratic element. ‘They say that fem we pepalsr impression arising frow ibis lamemtadie tecdeacy to found a circum. scrtved social order people Who Would patronize the howls keep away, feartmg that the proper atveotion is palt to those only who par. teipaxe tm this assimilated prestige. A Qivisiom ef sentiment exists upon this subject. Seue maimtain that the visitors reslding in the sumptacus villas have in mind an elegant retire ment, aud that the decay and dissolution of hotel patrouage is only a natural consequence that could not be averted, Certainly cottage iife is opposed to hotel life, and where cottages are the style—where, in fact, they are the ali in all of “tone” and position— ft is not surprising that they should prevail. They could not do otherwise. lt can, therefore, be taken asa fixed fact that Newport 1s the RETREAT OP COTTAGERS, and In this respect if has a featnre not held in com mon with any other watering place. Much of the Prevailing sentimeut abont the impregnable wall said to surround the circle of summer residents at Newport is not we!l founded. Walle there is no @oubt that this place has the finest, the most cuiti- vated and really most elevated society anywhere in the country, lknow that the va ap comprising it are not uncompanignable, gi seclusion 1s not the Office of true refnement. rhaps some affect @ distant dignity and are austere by the rule of three; but these people are always common by nat- ural inference, and fools of their own foily by ratio and proportion. In a place like Newport, where there are over 360 cottages and villas, there must be a certain class who find it necessary to adopt isola- Yon, There, however, isolation stops. With those who are substantial and worthy there are no absurd tricks of this nature. Everywhere they ure too tans- parent and are only indulged throug! ignorance and Coutinued by mistaken policy, That social incongra- ities do noi exist here cannot be truthfully affirmed; Dat in general they do not illustrate those anomalies which an examination of many conditions of society a0 strikingly examplidies. Newport ts Murray Hill transferred to the. seaside with brown stone mansion and heavy furaiture ex- changed for beautiful and airy strictures, embel- Yshed with pleasant tints, becoming ornamentation @od graceful rural arcuitecuure, Fifth avenue ei leaps over — Narraganset Bay and settles for the summer.

Elements discordant in the city ave more Vkely to conere in the country, Newport is now DEPENDENT ON NOFHLING, on nobody. The summer residents do not care for Fisk or any one else. ‘The large amount of capital invested tn mansions and grounds, varying t value from $250,000 to $10,000, axaures its lasting success, It is capital permanently secured that makes any city. It ts experimental investments, ght struc- tures and poor hotels that wreek any watering place enterprise, Newport has the advantage of the former. T was somewhat astonished to find that Admira! Fisk is about as unpopular here as he is popular at Long Branch. Cluzens and capitalists say that he has cut Newport against his owu interests; that he has taken @ #trong dislike to the city, and thet his line of steamers terminating at Fail River should, geographically considered, discharge at Newport. Some gentlemen have been exulting that the Ad- miral did not make the arrangements for fretzht at Fail River as he expected. The sentiment is that THE FALL RIVER LING will have to do better for Newport to secure New port’s patronage. Still there are some very signifl- cant moveruents on the part of the company and its extensive connections. Among them it is reported that the Ninth regiment will visit Newport this sum- mer aud encamp upon the lawn of the splendid villa forweriy occupied by Abr, R.L. Maitland, but now Jeased by Mr. Jay Gould, The place has nineteen acres situated on the promontory facing Goat isiand. ‘The Admiral, it will be remembered, if to run Long Branch, With Mr. Gould at Newport, it rematns to be seen what will be the next movement of the ‘twins. ‘There are two routes of travel for reaching New- port. One is by Fisk's steamers—the Providence and Bristol, These are magnificent vessels of 3,000 tons burden, cost $1,000,000 each, are 473 feet long, forty- eight wide and sixteen feet deep. They are gorgeous pulaces, well equipped and accommodate 800 pas- wengers. They excel the world. ‘The Admiral gives them his personal supervision. It seems as if there were one officer to every two passengers on board, The gold lace business is de ly overdone, On the 5th Inst, the boats were run for the first time ou punday. The Admiral was at his post In Bostonand started the initial vessel by his own orders from Fall River. These boats leave New York at five P. M. touching at Newport. Passengers leave Boston (by train) at haif-past five, making the connection at Fail River, and reach New York at six A. M. ‘This line will meet with A VIGOROUS OPPOSITION from the Newport and Wickford Railroad and Steam boat Company. They announce a train to loave New York from the New Haven depot at quarter past tweive noon via Shore Line Railroad to Wickford, R. 1, thence by the Newport and Wickford Rairoad and Steamboat Line to Newport— all ineigkt hours. ‘his company also owns the viners Narraganset and Stonington, leaving pier seat five o'clock P.M. daily. This company —By this route the unpleasant trip around iut Judith ts avoided and the inconvenience and annoyance of being landed on the whart at Newport { inidnigbt Js dispensed with.’ This is @ thrust at At remains to eon what he will do. rful railroad activity spown everywhere Without excepion at the resorts is to be exhibited To-morrow (Wednesday) there ts to be A RAILROAD CONVENTION iteresied in the development of New- tion With rolling stock im Which the Kbolders, It is proposed to vt Suratoga with Newport by a through raf, ‘avellers can traverse the interval without of cars, T ga, Bre it may not b dreds go to Sarat the season and abou mt remain the s come merely as tran syMaetiitate this travei t inection 18 proposed.

They all form lateral contections with the main artery, Touro street, which after leaving the Park loses its name in Bellevue avenue beyond the Ocean House, and, finally, When It touches the shore, becomes Ocean avenue. For drives Newport is bce gee ‘This main drive is itself over eight and a half miles long, from every point of which there is a fine landscape, often briiging the ocean before the eye, to be lost again behind some ey cottage, a wealth of folt- age or a gently yg of green weadows. ‘The mansions of Mr. ja, the Peruvian Miois- ter; George Bancroft, August Belmont, L.

No malaria infests” Newport; no mosquitoes, or their twin brothers, Geas, are guests; the water 1s not bad, thoagh some say as; the temperature rarely exceeds eighty degrees; the air is delightful; the townspeople are hospitable and kindly disposed; churehes abouud, and I believe there is a jai for those romantically inclined. Such is Newport, with her new colleges now bulld- tug, her expanding drives, her two fine hviels, her incomparabie guests, One fact deserves prominent mention. Mr. George Griswold Gray is baliding @ bachelor’s hall on something of an oriental patiern from a style of archiecture without a name.

The Nineteenth Ward Reading Socicty’s New Home—A Palace on Third Avenne, The “Nineteenth Ward Reading Society” is one of the most flourishing clubs im the city. Starting wiih less than a dozen members on the LOth day of November—tie anniversary of the birth of the great German poet Friedrich Scbiller—in the year 1858, and Hugering between life and death for want of support, and kicked out of house and home by sev- eral indignant Jandiords, it at last began to show signs of growing vigor in the summer and fall of 1867, and at its otath anniversary already over eighty meimbers sat down toa banguet had in its cetchietiow. Since the spring of 1869 when the society was quartered in a double two story and attlo frame house, on Fifty-elghth street, near ‘Third avenue, @ portion of the premises of the Ter- race Garden, It has steadily Increased, and numbers now nearly 400 members, the very créme dela creme of the Gerinan families of the ward, A few days ago the society entered mto an agreement with the Ger- man Up-town Savings Bank by Which they became the sole tenants of the entire new building to be erected by the bank save that portion set apart for the latter. This butiding will be locatea on the southwest cor- ner of Fifty-fiith street and Toird avenue, and will be m every respect a veritable palace and an orna- ment to that part of the city, Its front will be fifty feet on the avenue by a depth of nearly 100 feet on Fiity-fifth street. The style of architecture adopted by the architects, Messrs. Schulze and Schoen, and approved by both the bank and the society, is of the Renaissance order, six stories high, including basement, sub-basement and the Mansard roof, ‘The entire height of the building, from the sidewalk to the top of the pavilion, is to be eighty-four feet, The front on the avenue, the return frontand end, the latter each sixteen feet on Fifty-fiih street, are designed of Ohto free stone, and the curtain will be of Philadelphia pressed brick, with freeston casings and trimmings. The principal entrance leading to the banking room is ln the centre projection on the avenue front, steps to the height of seven feet lead- ing up trom the sidewalk.

Identification of the Deceased=She was a Teacher, Governess and Housekeeper—The So-Called “Dr.” Wolff Committed to the Tombs—A Chance to Make an Example. For @ week or cen days past Coroner Schirmer, his deputy, Dr. Cushman, and deteetive Dunlap, of the Sevemteenth precinct, have been actively engaged tn collecting information in regard to the death of the woman at first known as Mrs. H, Hunt. She died about the 20th of May last at the house of M, A. A, Woltf, 182 Seventh street, who advestised him. self as 4 physician, as heretofore reported in the Heravp. In the course of the investigation it was found that deceased was not Mrs, Hunt, but Miss Matilda Heuningsen, an educated German woman, who had been employed in several weaithy families of this city in the capacity of teacher, governess and housekeeper. On entering the house of Wolff, where Miss Henningsen died, Coroner Schirmer found @ large number of peculiar obstetrical mstru- ments and other unmistakable evidences that Wolf was engaged in an unprofessional and Ulegal busi ness, Yesterday morning Coroner Schirmer called the Jury togetiier and submitted to them the tesumony of ‘several witnesses, which had been previously taken, and also examined one or two other persons who had been acquamted with deceased for several years, Subjotned will be fonnd a synopsis of the most tuportant evidence elicited: TRATIMONY OF MR. R 4 Auguse H. Randus, of No. 402 Sixth avenue, di that ne had been acquainted with decease Jor about tweive years; she lived out in diferent families in the expacity of governess; in October last she kept astore in Broadway, but in January she gave up business; at that time she became sick and six weeks; on getting better othe witness that she had been advised togo to the conutry; she left on the 14th ul. and on going requested that letters addressed to her be sent to the Arlington House, Fourteenth street and Filth avenue; after deceased left witness found a card on which was written the names of Dr. Woltl, Dr. Grindie and several others; the witness entified the clothing of “Mrs, Hunt’ found at No. 182 Seventh street as belonging to Miss Henningsen, with the exception of the bonnet and the travelling bag, which belonged to the wife of the witness, TESTIMONY OF DECEASED'S SISTER, Henrietta Henningsen, of 41 Henry street, where he i empi tas houvekceper, deposed that de- ceused Was her sister; had not seen her for several weekx; about two months ago deceased lived at 402 Sixth avenue, Where she was sick; Dr. Herzog at- tended her: about four weeks ago deceased told her sister that she had received an invitation to go to Witllamsburg; did not see her again. TRATIMONY OF DR. HERZOG. Max Herzog, of 48 West Thirty-fonrth street, te tifled that He had Known decease! for several years; had seen her tn different families whom ne had visited as physician; was called to see her at 402 Sixth avenne on the 12th of March; deceased subse- quently confessed to the doctor that she was enceinte and asked what she should do, and was informed it would be better to go into the couniry tll her trouble was over; two or three days alterwards deceased called on the doctor aud said she bad made up her mind to go to Germany, where she had a sister, and rematn uutil she could safely return and resume her duties. After the introduction of some further testimony of a similar character the case was submitted to the jury, who rendere.t the following VERDICT. ‘That Matilda Henptngeen, the deeeased, came to her death by metroperitonitis, the result of an abor- tion, produced. as we believe from the testimony, at the hands of M. A. A. Wolf.” On the above verdict Coroner Schirmer committed Wolff to the Tombs to await the action of the G Jury. sed was thirty-nine years of age a native of Gerui Wolff is about forty-six years of age, a native of Denmark, and most emphatically denies his guilt, His explanation to the jury, how- ever, Was a lame affair, aud it would have been better for him had he kept quiet, He said he ex- peotod to recive his diploma in the course of a few weeks, POLITICAL NOTE AND COMMENTS. There seems to be no lack of aspirants for the office of Governor of Vermont, vacant by the death of Governor Washburne. Among those already namei are Julins Converse, Dudley ©. Denison, eorge W. Hendee, A. L. Miner, Frederick Billings, Horace Fairbanks and John W. Stewart, The Rut- land Herald thinks that either of these would be a selection satisfactory to the people. Papers in the northern part of fowa are urging the nomination of William B, Allison as Congressman at large. The Burlington (lowa) Harckeye mentions State Senator Blunott, of Washington, as a suitable candi- date for one of the Congressinen at large, and United States Senator Harlan, whose term will expire next March, as a proper person to serve the First district in the lower House of Congress. The Manchester (N. H.) Mirror says & majority of the republican newspapers in the State are in favor of the return of Mr. Cragin vo the United States Senate. George T. Downing, colored philosopher, states- man and caterer is out in the Washington New Era in along review of the “caste” leaning of Governor Alcorn of Mississtppi. Perham (as @ candidate for Governor) delegates to the Maine Republican Convention are being exten- sively chosen all over the State, The Bath (Me.) Times saya that Sagadahoc will give her united vote to Hon. William P. Frye, of Lewiston, a3 the next republican candidate for Con- gress from that aistrict. Itis a matter of congratu- lation that Sagadahoc prefers no other fish to Frye, But how stands Skowhegan? What says the um- pet-tongued Clarion ? The animated contest in the Fifth lowa Congres- sional district for the republican nomination has re- sulted in favor of Mr. Palmer, the present tncum- bent, and against Mr, Kasson. Whereupon the Bur- lington Huwkeye urges that the strife of the can- vass be forgotten and the whole strength of the party given to the election of the successful nominee. The Caitfornia republicans are already beginning to cast about for a suitable nomimee for Governor next fall. Among the names thus far mentioned are the following:—General John F, Milier, of Napa; Romnaldo Pacheco, ex-State Treasurer, and @ native of California; E. W. Roberts, of Grass Valley; New- ton Booth and General John Bidwell, The Cincinnati Chronicle says James Munroe, of Oberlin, late Consul at Rio Janeiro, will probably be the republican candidate for Congress in the Ohio Fourteenth district, in place of Martin Welker, who declines a re-election, All the horrors of the prison pen at Andersonville have not yet been told, if the remarks recently de- livered by Governor Bullock at a political meeting in Georgia are true, The American Repubdlican says:— Bullock mounted a wagon and began a philippic against the Confederacy, the people and against everything he could think of. Referring to the treat- ment of prisoners at Andersonville, he sald that six prisoners were one day taken out of the stockade, tied hand and foot, ate alive by savage dogs, and that there were two soldiers present with Krysa- nowski, who were eye-witnesses to the deed and could testify to it. General Phil Cook, of Oglethorpe, who stood the tirade as long as he could, at this juncture mounted @ wagon of his own and declared the statement faise and challenged the proof. A Georgia paper says— ironically, perhaps—‘‘It was forthcoming, of course.” Colonel John Williams 1s announced as a candidate for tho democratic nomination for Congress from the Knoville (Tenn.) district. The Knoxville Caron- icle (radical) says:— Colonel Williams evidently inteuds running on the straight democratic platform, and does not propose to submit to the action of any ‘middie’ party men, The party in this county, in organizing in the sev- eral districts, goes by the uame of conservative, union conservative, conservative democratic and demoeratic. In some districts it is even organized under the guise of “farmers’ clubs.” Colonel Henry D, McHenry ts announced as a can- didate for Congress in the Second Kentucky district.

On the appeal from Judge Blatchford’s aecision Judge Woodruff goes over the whole ground of controversy and of the legal points involved, dnally aMirming the decree granted by Judge Blatchford. Judge Woodrudy, in his decision epitomized below, Says:—The above named bankrupts composed the firm of Bininger & Company, who for many years carried on business ip tuis city a8 merchants and traders, On the petition of Milton J, Hardy and others, creditors of the firm, they were, on the 22d day of December, 1889, decreed bankrupts, and the re- spondent Clark has brought into this court for re- view the proceedings had in the District Court upon that petition and the decree pronounced thereon. ‘The petition, as originally fled, allegea as acts of that the respondent fraudulently and had not resumed payment of their comuercial paper within a period of fourteen days. ‘That they, on the 19th of November, 1862, did in substance effect a transfer of all their partnershy) property to one Daniel H. Hanrahan, under color 0! the appummtinent of the sald Hanrahan to be & re- ceiver of the property of tne frm procured by the respondent Clark, in # proceeding instituted tn the Superior Court of the city of New York, agaist the respondent Bintngar, and was suffered by the said Bininger, with intent to hinder and delay the credi- tors of the frm, The respondent Clark alone appeared and an- swered to this petition, aud by bis answer he dented that he or his sald firm had “compitted an act of bankrup' > bie forth in the said peltion or other- wise,’ and demanded a trial by jury. He alleged in his answer that neither he nor his said firm are tn- solvent, bat are, on the contrary, fully able to pay all their just debis and liabfMities and have a large sur- plus: and he admits that on the 19th of November, is0v, he commenced an action in the aforesaid court against Mis copartner Bminger, praying for a disso- luvin, an accounting and for the appomtment of a receiver, that such court did appoimt the receiver, und be, on the same 19th of November, took posses rion of the property of the firm in this city, and was in possession when the petition of the creditors was Hiled, Ana he further alleged that such petition was fied by coliuston between his copartner Biniug er aud their creditors. On the trial, and apon the examination of the said Clark ou his own beha'f, the petitionIng creditors obtained leave to add further allegations co their petition, by way cf amendment. To toe granting of such jedve the responient objected and excepted, ‘To the allegations thas added to the petition the respondent Clark answered by a deulal, and the said Kiniuger thereupon appeared tn form by his sulicitor, but made no waswer to the petition. The trial then proceeded, and at the close of tie testi- mony the Judge charged the jury in effect that the pelitioning ereditors were entitied to a verdict, finding that the respondents, being insolvent, did, om the 1yth day of November, 1869, suffer their pro- eed to be taken on legal process, with the nient by such disposition of that properly fo defeat the enone ol the said act of Congress, 1. in my judgment there was no error in per- mitiing an amendment of the petition. It belongs to courts of justice as the general rule to permit amendment of proceedings before them when they haye obtatved jurisdiction of the person and of the subject matter, and tt would be strange if the district conrt in the adinmistration of the bankrupt law shoald be held meompetent to allow such amend mrents. Here the appeilant answered the amended etition and the issue thereby ereated was tried and determined, 2. On the question what constitutes insolvency in a trader, T coucuc In the views expressed by the Dtstriet Judge on the tnal, and they have singular aptness to the present case. ‘The all bankrapts owed a very large sum of money. y i been i strnggting tor imonths in a condition of great em- barrassment to raise mouey for the payment of their objigations as they matured. They used means or- @nary and extraordinary unull even such means fatied to procure them fands, submitting to the saies of their own paper at wn enoraious discount sor that purpose, It Was clear that i they had been able to raise money by eontinuing to enlarge their ifabilities: in the tutare at such a rate in order to meet their inents the Joss would absorb thelr entire esiate, ‘Their real estate in this city Was encninvered. They had real estate in Virginia which they had been long endeavoring in vain to dispose of and convert into some available form, but without saccess, and at length they stopped payment for the want of funds wherewith to pay. This, in my judgment, consit- tuied insolvenc, hin the meaning of that term, as nsed in the Bankrupt law. 3. The remaining question is whether the firm being insolvent, it was an act of Bankruptcy to ap- ply to the State court to procure the appoimtnent of a receiver and au order ior the delivery of the pro- perty of the firm to iim, and thereby prevent the operauion of the Bankrupt law upon the propert and the administration thereof, I concur with Judge Blatchiord tat the term egal process as used in the Bank, upt law, is not to be confined to any par- ticular form of writ, execution, attachment or act. ‘The desigu and purpose of the Baokrupt taw is that the property of insolvents shall be secured to the creditors in the very mode pointed out thereby, with ali the faciities for 1s appropriation, all the sccuriiy for its administration, all the saieguarda against fraud, all ite protection against devices to establish false clalins, detiuous debts and tilegal or ineguitable preferences, which that act pro- vides, aud in the sulamary madner fu which the proceedings may be conducted. It is not, therefore, for the deptors, or for the debtors and some of the creditors, to say we can devise a better, or safer, or more economical mode of reaching the same final resuit. JI it were true, it would pe only saying that we will resort to an expedient to defeat the Bank- rupt iaw, aud our reason therefore is, nat we think our plan is wiser and better than that which Con- gress bas seen fit to prescribe. IL have only to add, that the motive of petitioners in prosecuting the petition, or the co-operation of the copartner Bin- Inger, or his motive therefor, can have no possible elect in deiermtuiug the quality of the acts alleged to be acts of Dankrupicy, or the legal consequence of such acts, The rejection of evidence tending to show collu- sion between Bininger and the petitioning creditors was not erroneous. However fully established the decree must have followed as the right of the cre- ditors. If the design was to show a purpose to administer the bankrupt's estate’so as to defraud Clark, bis copartner, that design appertains to tne future, the means are abundant to protect him against any such fraud, and the court and the law are competent in adequacy aud power to see that in execution of the law full justice and protection are awarded to all who are Interested. ‘The decree must be attired, Decisions in Bankruptcy. Before Judge Blatchford. Robert J. Hubbard and Andrew J.

A WARNING TO WRST STREBT BROKERS. Johu Gilbert, an old man, a ticket and gold broker, whose office is at 200 West street, was charged with stealing from Jason W. Moxley, twenty-five dollars, under the following cireumstances:— Moxley was going to Caltfornia, and ke wished to obtain a ticket and to exchange $110 currency into gold. Gilbert gave him the ticket and £14 10s. in gold for the curreney, or $72 50 In gold, Moxley told Gilbert when he received the gold that It was the wrong amount, and asked for the return of his greenbacks, but Gilbert refused to return the cur- rency. Moxley then went to the Leonard street sta- ton, and oMicer Cole was detatied to go to Gilbert's oitice with complainant. He went there and ob- tained the currency, and retained the gold given in exchange, both of whieh were deposited with the property clerk, The complainant at once preferred a complaint for the larceny of twenty-five dollars. ‘the defendant was placed on the stand, and said that the complainant received from him the four- teen pounds and ten shillings and that he paid ninety for the gold. An expert was called, who said that this fourteen pounds ten shillings represented nearly one hundred doliars and that ninety was the price of the dollar, ‘The Court made a calculation, and said that the price of gold on the day in qnestton was about 115, and the complainant ought to have had about niuety-three dollars in gold, Judge Dowling said that the court found the de- feudant guilt y on this complaint. Wheo emigrants arrived in th Is city they were met by runners and thioves who infest the First ward. The emigrant was brought to places like the defendant's and his currency exchanged for goid, and they are robbed in the shape of an excessive percentage. The cruelty of rovbevies of this kind would be seen to be very great when if was considered that the visits to the city were invariably for the purpose of appropriating their hard carnuigs either to take them back to their own country, wiere they were golug to fetch their friends, or for the purpose of sending to their friends, The court would inflict a very heavy sentence for the parpose of deterring otuers from the commis- sion of the same crime. Sentenced to six mouths’ impris opment and Lo pay fily doilars fine, WATERING THE MILK. Henry Hildebrandt, Harry Knapp, George Maller, Bernard Seiler and James Stanicy were charged with selling adulterated milk. The defendants were discovered by the police in Forty-eighth street, near Lexington avenue, fliling with water. Knapp and Mul- , the other three defendants ler pleaded not gi pleaded guilty. Justice Dowling said that practice, which le had succeeded in stopping to a great extent In the district of the court. Now the same adulteration was breaking out in anotner district, and he considered that the defendants do more dan than even the quack doctors. This adulterated milk was sold to mothers who were unable to supply their chtidren with sustenance from nature's fount, and were com- pelled to buy milk from the defendants, the effect of which was to cause the children to sicken and to die, Men like the defendants were reaily guilty of killing the babies with what was really stale water, waking poor people not only pay the Croton Boat but also the defendauis for the water. A punish- ment must be inflicted that the court hoped would be a warning to others. Knapp and Mujer, who had pleaded not guilty, would be sent for one wonth’s imprixonment in the Penitentiary and pay fifty dollars fine each. The other three defendants would be sent to the City Prison lortwenty days and fined fifty dollars eact. PIOKPOCKETS ON THIRD AVENUE CARS. John Baxter was brought before Justice Dowling yesterday morning, charged with Seranising a man with intent to sieal a watch and chain from the man’s pocket. Captain W.
