f, The battle of the legal giants was re-
i. e fore Surrogate Ransom to-day.
fU rhp struggle to obtain the millions of
1 e lite A. '£• Stewart was carried on with
““i^wthe'lngRest legal duel that has been

utter would have felt much more comfort-
•We in bis handsome office in the gay
French capital. Mr. Choate pursued him
Jrith an urbane smile and a honeyed
mneue, hut he made matters very warm
for Mr Hilton just the same, and the top
' [ ,j ie latter’s head, which is much more
],alil than that of his father, glistened and
gleamed from excessive mopping as his
elimination proceeded. ‘
Koscoe Conklmg was silent for a couple
of hours after the trial opened, and seemed
plunged in thought. Whether Tie was
thinking over General Badeau’s letter to
‘•the American people” or some other of
the many great affairs in which he has
been mixed up was not known, and when
he finally aroused from contemplation long
enough to object to the manner in which
y r , Choate was toying with portly young
Mr. Hilton, the Surrogate sat upon Mr.
Conkling with a force and precision that
were somewhat startling.
“But, your Honor,” remarked the great
ex-Senator in a protesting tone, “it is the
rule with counsel ”
“The counsel in this conrt, Mr. Conk
ling, do not rule,” interrupted Surrogate
Kansora. “The ruling here is done by
the court.” _ „
“I submit to your ruling, your Honor,”
and the handsome gray-haired orator re
lapsed again into revery, while a strictly
legal smile Spread over the court.
NOTHING OF IMPORTANCE.
Mr. Boot gently pulled his side-whis
kers, a smile spread over the cherubic fea
tures’of Leslie W. Bussell, Judge Gilbert’s
imperturbable features relaxed, and even
judge Hihon dispersed the eucircling
gloom from his countenance. Mr. Choate
labored earnestly for a considerable length
of time to get into evidence the discharge
of the mortgage on Judge Hilton’s Fifth
avenue property, which amounted to
$196,675, and which was satisfied in April,
1876. .Mr. iliiton displayed, however,
lack of memory and an absence of recollec
tion that were bewildering. Incidentally
Mr. Boot w ould assist him, but most of
the time lie got along very well without
ary help irora any one, and drew out an
admiring remark from Mr, Conkling.
“If :: z.5! right, Senator,” remarked Mr.
Choate, as bland as bland as belore. “I’ve
got this witneM, and’I intend to hold him
for a while.” And lie did. The result,
however, was not importnnt. In the main
Mr, Hilton’s evidence was in reference to
the will that he drew for Mrs. Stewart, and
he denied utterly that any undue influences
had been used to get the old lady’s money
into the Hilton family. He could not rec
ollect the manner in which the mortgages
on his father’s property were discharged.
Then Senator Conkling struck another
snag. He wanted to get Mr. Choate not to
ask Mr. Hilton a question that was pal
pably immaterial.
“The counsel will please address his ob
jection to the cour.t, ordered the Surro
gate.
“Well, I object, your honor,” said Mr.
Conkling.
“I sustain your objection,” returned the
Surrogate with a promptness that surprised
Mr. Conkling, who seemed to have ex
pected that Ins objection wonld he over
ruled.
A moment later Surrogate Ransom
crushed Mr. Choate because that gen
tleman asked some questions concerning
the banks of Sylvester & Hilton that the
warned judfjc though to lie improper.
Then the distinguished legal gentleman
smiled at Mr. Choate’s expense, but he re
mained bland and proceeded to get even hv
shooting sharp arrows, pointed with fully-
developed sarcasm, at poor Mr. Hilton.
Mr. Hilton stood a furious bombardment
well, but he breathed a great sigh of relief
when he was allowed to slip aside and his
Place was taken by ex-Judgc Julien T.
I'avies, his father’s partner.
Mr. Choate then proceeded to make
dungs lively for the ex-jndge. He first
wx, ' or books 0 f the firm of Davies,
Mchamcc & Hilton.
Mr. Davies said that lie would do the
J*st he could to produce the books, and
then lie left the Btand to give place to Ed-
*»rd Hilton again.
“How long before the time when Mrs.
? le *art made her will, in 1884, did you
know that Mrs. Stewart was about to
w ***'» will?” asked Mr. Choate.
About five days, when niv father told
ne had some memoranda which he
‘ WI |«W like to have me copy."
'Had you any communication with
Mis. Stewart?”
“None whatever on that subject. Mrs.
otewirt never tcok legal advice from me

sometimes twice. Mr. Hilton never saw
■he memoranda until the papers were
given him by his father to copy. The
memoranda were on several sheets of pa
per. 1
NO MERCY FOR TIIE WITNESS.
The memoranda were all in Judge Hil
ton s handwriting, and there was nothing
• el « in them.
Mr. Choate was desirous to get these
them 0 *' ^ ena,or Conkling couldn’t give
“I will giVe you until to-morrow to pro-
j jtce them," said Mr. Choate in his most
and condescending manner.

»somewhat chilly manner. Then young
Hilton was gently led into the details

codicil* to the will were prepared, one
°l which was in Judge Hilton’s hand

.“t* Choate raqueated Mr. I foot to p induce

‘As far as I know, the Sunday after this
• “t will was made tilt whole family went
to Saratoga, anil Mrs. Stewart went
tlirm.”
Witness had never seen the will since lie
opened it. Mr. Choate then grew more
and more sarcastic as lie asked questions
concerning the tender attentions that Judge
Hilton and his family paid to the widow
of A. T. Stewart aud the po.-.sessors of the
merchant king’s millions. Mr. Hilton
grew uncomfortable, but Mr. Choate was
merciless and kept his victim on the rack.
Senator Conkling nulled his gray heard,
Mr. Boot tugged ot his side-whiskers and
Mr. Russell took copious notes, hilt Mr.
Choate, with his urbane smile, kept up his
persecution.
Mr. Hilton was-still on the stand this
afternoon. When the question of Mrs.
Stewart’s deafness came up the witness
said:
“If people were importuning her site was
very deaf.”
“Undoubtedly,” sneered Mr. Choate, and
then Senator Conkling laughed for the first
time in the day.
Same Data of Protection.
From the Galveston New*.
What might Senator Brown of Georgia
he expected to repiy-if his assumptions
about the steel rail manufacture and sugar
protection were turned against him? A
passage from the report of Mr. Brown's
recent speech in the Senate reads as fol
lows :
“The effect of a tariff in stimulating
manufactures was shown, he said, in the
case of Bessemer steel. Fourteen years ago
the price of steel rails was $138 per ton; a
tariff of $28 a ton had caused large Ameri
can production and had reduced the price
to $33 a ton. The tariff was now $17 a ton,
and rails had been offered at $31 a ton.
The English manufacturer had to get $39
a ton to save himself in this market, or
else lose $8 a ton at the present price.
During the low tariff, from 1856 to 1860,
refined sugar was worth 16 cents a pound.
It is now under high tariff worth from 5
to 6j.”
In attributing the reduction in prices to
the tariff, the Senator ignores ail differ
ences in appliances for producing refined
sugar, such os have been invented since
1856, and lor producing steel rails since
1874. If that is the persistent policy of
protectionists in their addresses to the
public—and it appears to he—it may be
worth while to make the same assumption,
namely, that the modes of production
have remained stationary as to cost. In
vention has done nothing to cheapen steel
rails in Europe during fourteen years. No
new processes have been imported from
Belgium and England to cheapen the
manufacture, and all that the steel manu
facturers of Europe were charging in 1874
over what they are charging now was
profit, out of which they have been
knocked, according to Senator Brown, by
the cheapening produced by the American
tariff. These are violent assumptions, hut
they can he endured a few moments for the
sake of an inference which immediately
follows. Fourteen years ago steel rails
sold at $138 a ton. Inasmuch as the cost
of prediction *'■ tb» same, the appliances
being the same as now when steel is selling
at $33 a ton, it must he inferred that
fourteen years ago the high tariff barons
were pocketing an extra profit of $105 a
ton over and nbovc all the profit they
make now. If Senator Brown can not ex
plain this serious charge away except by
alleging that it is the progress oi inven
tion which lias cheapened steel, lie can not
explain it without taking hack what he
ha-alleged about the tariff as a cheapen
ing force. The great inventions in cheap
ening steel have originated in Europe.
Prices have always been lower there,
and the protected barons have got the
European processes and dropped their
prices, following the European manufac
turer. The case of sngar is somewhat
varied. Beet root production has been
stimulated with bounties by foreign gov
ernments; glucose is sold ns sugar, and
refining processes have undergone some
economics. All these conditions combined
have cheapened sugar in the country where
there is no duty as well as where there is
one. Were it not so—were the case os
Senator Brown presents it, a case of con
ditions the same os in 1856—the pro
tected Minors or the growers or both to
gether were pocketing an enormous profit
for some years under protection. There
is this variation between NIr. Brown’s
two subjects, tlint steel was highly pro
tected when the price was Ugh. Sugar
was high under a low tariff. Now, ii be
blames the low tariff for the price of sugar,
why doe* lie not say that the high tariff
was to be blamed for the price of steel ? If
it had been a low tariff lie would
of course have rung the change
upon those figures $138. Another
point is this: Do the sugar men ap
preciate the Senator's logic? Under a low
tariff sugar was worth three times its pres
ent price. If the argument is worth any
thing protectionism lias not helped the
sugar men. Even they must recognize
that the logic is spurious. Being so its
employment for any purpose reflects no
credit upon any of the protectionist advo
cates.
Tlio UosupplliMl Common Gender Pronoun.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Mr. Editor:—Two items have within a
few days appeared in the Ledger relative
to that lack of our language, an Epicene
pronoun, or personal pronoun of common
gender. One of these items gave tiie re
marks (as expressed by a correspondent of
the Macon Telegraph) of Professor Do
zier, of Hamilton, Georgia, who proposes
the use of the Latin word “se,” .leaning
lie, her or it, and that it is to be inllcctcd
“se,” “sis," “sim.” Of course “sinisclf”
would follow.
The second article, taken from The
Earth, simply details some of the difficul
ties experienced by writers and speakers in
itli I It has been said by some that there need
| be no difficulty in tiie matter, as the plural
pronoun can, in most cases, he brought in
to service so as to insure grammatical cor
rectness, or, more frequent use can be made
of “whoso” and “such an one.” But there
may he good reason for objecting to either
of these alternatives. Let ns suppose a
newly-lleged, elhntless doctor leaving
word with the domestic: “If any persons
call while I am away, tell them I will
soon be back,” There might he somewhat
of either irony or assumption in that sen
tence. He would prefer to speak ill tiie
singular, and so he could say: “If any one
calls, tell such an one to Wait till f re
turn.” A little touch of formality in that.
He wonld he relieved if the language
would let him say, with directness: “Should
any one call, let him wait.” Part of a
sentence in the cablegram relative to the
Emperor William’s obsequies, in yes
terday’s Ledger, reads: “Each
arrival at once betaking himself or
herself to the ranks of those seeking to pass
through the Cathedral.” This could have
been stated according to the suggested
Dozier form—“betaking siniself to the
ranks.”
“But “there’s no use in talking about
it,” matter-of-fact people will sav, “it
can’t be done; too late in tiie day for any
such philological importation or experi
ment.” These objectors may be reminded
that the use of the English lan
guage is increasing rapidly in
all parts of the globe to which Anglo-
American commerce extends; ttiat
the claim is made by many that it is des
tined to become the universal language,
and, further, that as there are other lan
guages which possess the common gender
pronoun which we,nevertheless, lack, there
is no good reason why we should not pos
sess the same convenience. So. while our
fonetik friends seem not to have made
much progress in their chosen field, we
know, at snv rate, that they have definitely
simplified the spelling of at least the one
word “programme” by dropping off the
redundant “me.” There is now an oppor
tunity to fill the void and permanently
“enrich” the language by adopting into it
that little word of a good deal of possible
usefulness, the heretofore suggested “ze” or
“se,” together with what else properly bc-

CAI'T. HO ETON’S ADVENTURE.
Lout for Fifteen Hours in the Ico of Lalco
Michigan*
Chicago, March 29.—Capt. Paul Boy-
ton, the noted swimmer, had an experience
in Lake Michigan Tuesday that he thinks
lie will not forget for some time. The
Captain has grown heavy during the win
ter, and to reduce his flesh has recently
been taking little pulls out into the lake
in his rubber suit.' Tuesday morning at
7:30 o’clock he left Fullerton avenue for a
swim to South Chicago and return, and
met with the most thriiiing adventure of
his life, in which he battled for honrs
with a great ice floe, was carried many
miles out into the iaku, stripped of his
ns liner instruments, and lost for fifteen
hours in tke cold, bleak waste of drifting
ice, hanging clouds and straggling ducks
and gulls. From 7 o’clock in the morning
until midnight the Captain was without
food, and the chill of the icy waters had
driven him to the desperate resort of hard
work all that time to keep lip a vigorous
circulation, so that iie would uut ilii” .:r.d
perish in the lake. At midnight, when
lie was rescued at the crib, his vitality was
almost gone. Stimulants were applied and
the daring navigator put to bed. A tele
phone message was sent to the police that
the Captain was saved and hv them taken
to his little family—a wife and son—
who were distracted by his long absence
and supposed lie had perished.
Capt. Boylon was in bed when a re
porter called at his home last evening. He
was exhausted, the reaction from his des
perate excitement of the day before hav
ing made him weak and sick.
“When Itcntcrcd the water at 7 o’clock,”
the Captain said, “there was a fresli west
wind. I swam about two miles, intending
to clear the crib for a trip to South Chica

a time and then ran across some Sacs, onto
which I climbed. Meanwhile a heavy sky
had shut out all view of the sun, and the
wind had got the ice together. I struggled
quite awhile In whnt 1 thought was the
western border of the field, and then ran
into what I thought was a ;u>ckct. I pulled
through it and came againr to straggling
Hoes. I must have fought them till 10
o’clock before I missed my compass. When
I looked to get my bearings, having no
ticed that the city had faded from view, I
found that the hand which bound the com
pass to my liodv had either been
severed by a piece ot ice or had become
unbuckled. It was gone. The sun was
hidden, and there was nothing by which
I could get my hearings. The water was
cold, and I had been in it so long 1 began to
get drowsy. Chills ran through my veins
in quick succession, and I saw 1 must
cither pull out for somewhere or perish. I
looked about and saw the field of ice was
at my feet—I swam feet foremost—and
then concluded I had only to pull from
the ice to reach the Chicago. So I started,
and vigorously, too. Tor five hours I
worked ns I never worked before. The
water waslieay and lifeless. I had to fight
for every inch I made. Chicago was still
nowhere to be seen, and 1 nad no notion of
the time of day. Then I changed my
course about half way round and pulled
hard foi awhile. Tiie ice gathered about
me again, and when r'ght came
I was fighting again for my life.
Sometimes I could dodge the drift,
at others I climbed upon the cakes and
crossed them. When the moon rose I got
a (lash of a view at it, and then saw my
esoajiiig tc expr^** tnww—lvvs grmmmatl. mistake. I had crossed the field in the
cully, in spite of the absence of such a per- morning when 1 entered what 1 thought

penned, however, in a rather facetious
vein, as though the writer was either of
the view that the task of supplying the
confessedly needed word was a hopeless
one, or because lie was averse to placing
himself on record as seriously proposing
its adoption.
The writer of tiie present article several
years ago addn—ed two communications
upon the subject to nn cducaliuiia! Journal,
in which, after referring to the grammati
cal errors so commonly occurring, by rea
son of the lock of a pronoun of common
gender, made mention of the fact that the
late Joshua Iloopes, of West Chester, a
rare botanist. mathematician and Latin
scholar, hail frequently touched upon this
subject,and had suggested, ns nn available
form, “ze,” “*is,” “xitu” -n arly the same,
therefore, as tiie form imw proposed by
Professor Daciir.
Some months ng > this matter of the de
sirability of a cogunem gee ler pronoun was
the subject of a disc jision by some of the
women of thf Christian Temperance Union,
and, being referred to a committee, they
reported in favor of the word thon, identi
cal for the three cases. I am not aware
that the recommendation has been acted
upon.
day, with the ico at ray feet, had driven
me toward Michigan. The turn I had
taken had sent me south. I set about and
pushed from the moon. At 10 o’clock I
saw a faint light in the sky, amd nn hour
later perceived it was the furnaces at
South Chicago. Then I got my hearings
and sighed the lights at the crili. I pulled
up there at midnight and blew my tingle.
I must have called a dozen time* before

answered my signal and I shouted ‘crib

•“Aye, who’s there.” the captain an
swered.
“ ‘I most stav here to-night.’
“ ‘Puli round to the port.’
“When 1 giW there they dropped a hit of
a rope into which I fixed my foot, and
then they dre-v up. They gave me re
freshments, put no* to bed and telephoned
my wife that I was safe. Capt. Mao Kay

NOT ALWAYS NECESSARY
By our original system of diagnosis, we can treat many ebronio
diseases just as successfully without os with a personal con

familiarize them with our system of treatment, yet wo have not
6ccn one person in five hundred whom we have cured. The per
fect accuracy with which scientists aro enabled to deduce the
most minute particulars in their sevefal departments, appears
almost miraculous, if wo view it in the light of the early ages.
Take, for example, the electro-magnetic telegraph, tho greatest
invention or tho ago. Is it not a marvelous degree of accuracy
which enables an operate*^ to rrnrtlu locate a fracture in a sub
marine cable nearly three thousand miles long? Ourvencranio

UAUllun. I who is competent to ascertain the exact condition
and stage of advancement which the disease has
nmdo (winch can only bo ascertained by a careful chemical nnd
mlcroscouical examination of tiie urinof, for medicines which are
curative in one stage or condition are known to do positive injury
in others. Wo have never, therefore, attempted to put up anything
for general salo through druggists, recommending to cure these

well from an extensive experieneo that tho only safe nnd success
ful course is to carefully determine the disease and its progress in
cooh case by a chemical and microscopical examination of
urine, nnd then adapt our medicines to the exact stage of the dis
ease and condition of our patient.
To this wise course of action we attribute the
marvelous success attained by our specialists in
that important and extensive Department of our
institutions devoted exclusively to the treatment
ot diseases of the kidneys and bladder. Tbctrcnt-

instituted a leading branch of our practice at the Invalids’ Hotel

inquiries for a complete work on the nature and curability of these
maladies, written in a style to be easily understood, we have pub
lished a large Illustrated Treatise on these diseases, which will be
