CLAUSE OF POLICY
TAMPERED WITH
JURY BELIEVES THE INSUR
ANCE COMPANY DID IT.
Voidlct of $0,015 In Favor of tho
Plaintiff in the Case of James
O'Neill, of Plttston, Against Lite
Insurance Clearing Company of
St. Paul Arguments tor a Re
hearing lu the Case of Oakford
Against Hnckloy Cases in Circuit
Court Sentences Imposed.
In the ense of James O'N'ell, of Pitts
ton, against the Life Insurance Clear
ing compnny of St. Paul, tried befori
Judge Uufflngton in the United States
citcult court, a verdict was yesterday
rendered In favor of the plaintiff In
tho sum of $0,015, subject to a reserved
law point,
The point reserved Is on the question
of the admissibility of certain evi
dence. Tho plaintiff sued for nn ln
suiance policy on his father, claim
ing that tho company contracted to
pay $1,000 If death resulted from nat
ural causes and $3,000 if death was due
to accident. The Insured was killed
in the mines. The company claimed
that It did not take the accident risk
and that It was only called upon to
pay $1,000.
When the accident risk Is inc uded
hi this company's policies a silo Is
pasted on the policy so stipulating.
The policy in this Instance bears ev
dence of having had such a slip at
tached to It at one time, but it Is not
there now. The plaintiff alleges that
tho company removed the slip when
the policy was forwarded to It. The
company aveis that tho plalntl'f
pasted on a slip and then tore It olt
for the put pose of making evidence.
The Jury bc-lieveel the plaintiff.
IJEFKNSI3 TOOK EXCRPTION.
In tho declaration filed by the plain
tiff was a statement that he had in
his possession a contract which would
coriolwiiatu the statement that the
policy contained the accident risk.
When the case came to trial the plain
tiff could not produce the contract,
but was peimitted to prove It by
parole- .testimony. To this Attorney
31. VV. Lovvry, of counsel for defense,
took exception and on this tho tc
served law point hinges
On motion of Mi. Lowry, Judge liuf
filngton granted a rule to show cause
why judgment should not be recorded
for the defendant, notwithstanding the
e-rdlct.
Aiguments w-re heard by Judge
Piulllngton on a motion lor a rehear
ing in the case of Oakford ugainst
Hackley, Hon. H. W. Palmer, of
Wilkes-llaiie, appearing foi the mo
tion and S. B. Price opposing. Tim
plaintiff sued to compel the defendant
to execute a lease for a large tract of
coal lands near Winton. The defen
dant claimed that u contract was en
tered into "undei u great misunder
standing of the facts, alleging that
her attorney had made mlsiepresenta
tlons to her and that there was col
lusion and fiaud used In iecmlng her
lonsent to the contract.
Recently In Pittsburg Judge IJufling
tnn, who tried the case, found lor th-j
plaintiff and diiected a specille per
formance, of the contract. The d
fe-nse now stiives to have the case re
lieaiel, on the ground that the contiuet
will not penult of spcelllc perform
ance, beiausc it was not complet -,
there being ce'italn negotiations still
pending, particularly as to the mini
mum output.

BABE BURNED TO DEATH
Sad Accident to a Two-Yeax-Old
Child of William Gahe, of Green
Lano Yesterday Afternoon.
At 3.30 yesterday aft emoon Mrs. Wil
liam Gabe, of Green's lane, ran over
to her neighbor's house to bring home
one of her chlldten, leaving her two-year-old
son alone in the house after
her.
She was gone less than a minute
when she heard screams coming from
her home and hastening back in terror,
found her little one enveloped in
llames.
Sue wrapped her apron about the
child and succeeded in extinguishing
the flames, receiving seilous burns
about the hands and arms in so doing.
Her brave efforts, however, were In
vain. The child's body and head were
frightfully but ned and it died In two
hours. Dr. Thomson was colled to
attend the child and the mother.
The supposition is that the child was
lighting pieces of paper in the grate
when his dresses became ignited.

did not go Into the meetings.
As the councils now stand, tho sclest
branch has twelve Republicans, nine
Democrats, and tho common, eleven
Republicans, nine Democrats. A va
cancy exists in the Tvventy-ilrst ward,
owing to tho death of Thomas Norton,
Democrat. It is to be filled next Sat
urday. Ten of the twelvo Republican se
lectmen nnd all of tho eleven Repub
lican commoners attended the meet
ing. Tho Democrats hung about the
corridors or loafed In City Solicitor
McGlnley's olllce. Ex-Sheriff John J.
Fnhoy, c-x-Chalimau D. J. Campbell
and a number of other prominent
Democrats were with them. Mr. Mc
Glnley had a newly opened box of ci
gais on tap.
After much running about and no
end of low-voiced consultations In
which the word "Schroeder" was fre
quently used, the Republicans assem
bled and had Assistant City Cleik
Morris call the meeting .to oi der. When
Cletk Morris and Common Council
Clerk Jones announced the result ot
tha roll call, Mr. Kellar was elected
e-haliniiin nnd adjournment was made
until Tm-sday, Apiil 18, a week fiom
tonight.
There was'some discussion as to the
proper mode of proce-cdure, Mr. Chit
tenden claiming that as there was no
quorum, no organization could be ef
fected nnd without effecting an or
ganization adjournment could not be
made to a llxeel time.
Clerk Morris looked up the rules and
failed to tlnd anything governing the
question. Finally it was decided to
elect a chairman even without a quor
um and then adjourn to a Uxed time.

Lakewood, the Piney Woods Resort.
Within llfty-nine miles of Greater
New Yoik, on the southern division
ot tho Central itailroad ot New Jer
sey, Is the great pine hill of Ocean
county. New Jeisey, a vast sand plain,
entirely devoid of moisture. The air,
always heavily laden with the health
giving and invigorating odor of balsam
pine, is dry and pure. Reputable phy
sicians call it the most healthful re
gion in the north. That is why Lake
wood has grown from a mere hamlet
Into a thilving town, containing a
sumptuous hotel and boaidlng houses,
miles upon miles of haid made loads,
all beautifully suuounded by a largo
dilve-vvuy, cottages owned by wealthy
city people and all that tends to de
lightful conditions in the way of social
functions and sports, both indoor and
out. Lakewood is alike a resoit of
fashion and tor the seeker after
health. It pleases everybody and Is
growing so rapidly as to be a sur
prise to exen those that long ago pre
dicted Its brilliant futute. Reached
only by the Central Itailroad of New
Jersey, from stations foot ot Liberty
street and South Ferry, foot of White
hall sttcet, Parlor cars on all tialns.
