Thomas 'Francis Meagher died by the
accident of falling from the deck of
a steamboat in the Missouri River.
He was on his way to Fort Benton
to overlook arms and amriiunitiop, the
country being at the time threatened
by Indian troubles. He was ill aboard
the steamship G. H. Thompson and
when at Sun River complained to the
pilot, an old-time friend, that he
f6ared his enemies meant to murder
him. This statement was taken as
the unreasonable talk of a very sick
man and the pilot remembered that
he assured Meagher no such possibil
ity existed.
The soldier went below to his state,
room. Not long afterward a shout was
heard, followed by a splash and a cry.
General Meagher’s stateroom was

NEW YORK, June 2.—Wall Street,
especially that part of it which has
any connection with navigation on
the Hudson River, is. to-day staring
in open-eyed amazement at the-quick
and successful re-entrance of Charles
W. Mpgge into, that line. 9/ endeavor
and his recapture of the control of
the Hudson Navigation Company.
Just how strong the Morse control

is believed that when the details of
his coup are shortly .given otit’ iJt will
prove, the fnos£ startling rehabilita
tion of a man’s fort fines, .that New
York has ever known.
Not only is Morse in a fair way to
become the dominant figure in Hud
son River navigation, but he has
bought four lake steamers, which will
be brought to this port and put into
the trade between New York and
Southern ports.
Tho only reason they are riot in
commission between' the’ - South* and
the NoTth is"'that MorSeV sori, who
bought them for Morse, did not reckon
on the difficulties of putting them
through the' Welland Canal. Their
noses will have to be out off wid after
the passage of the canal their noses
will be put back, and they will enter
regularly into the traffic with South
ern coast points. •' ^

NEW YORK, June 2.—Justice As-
pinall, a bachelor, broke all records
for freedom of expression from a Su
preme Court bench when he bitterly
denounced “New - York society wom
en” and their “wanton, criminal ex
travagance.” His ire was aroused
fluing a preliminary hearing in a di
vorce suit brought by Mrs. Blanche
A- Heye against George Gustave
Heye, the banker, of Battles & Co.,
at 60 Broadway. Mrs. lleye demand
ed $78 000 alimony and $15,000 counsel
fee. She won’t got It.
The justice, after listening impa
tiently to arguments for more than
am hour, broke up the debate of the
iawyers.
Won’t Allow $78,000.
“You nan be absolutely certain," he
said, "that I won’t allow $78,000 ali
mony to any woman. These New
York society women live too high.
They go to fashionable hotels, drink
highballs and smoke cigarette^ in
stead of staying at home and trying
to make their husbands happy.
“They ride up Fifth Avenue in au
tomobiles with poodle dogs in their
laps, and when they are married to a
poor man, unfortunate.enough to have
a million dollars, they come into
.court and say their ‘social position’
requires.exorbitant alimony.
"This woman had a soft thing and
she lost him. She’ll never get $‘78,000
from me. She has been working this
man like a giinlei and has succeeded
in getting $166,000 out of him for her
private income-
Want His, Money Only.
‘.‘These young women get hold of
rioh meh and live with them as long
US’ they can get the money out of
them, but as soon as the man put*
on the brake, they are done with him.
"Attorney John Willet, who repre
sented Mrs. Heye, reminded Justice
Aspinwall of his client’s ‘station in
life’ and the money necessary to
maintain it.
‘/Stations in life look pretty In nov
els, w said the court, “but there are
many women who never had a sta
tion in life until they married a rich
man. One-half of the society women
of New York don’t deserve what
they’ve got.”
The defendant, who inherited $1,-
000,000 from his father, a Standard
Oil magnate, is charged with neglect
ing his wife for the society of Myrtle
Vincent, a handsome woman, who Is
well known on Broadway. She has
been living for more than *six years
at the Ansonia, Mr*. Heye charges, at
the expense of her IrusbtOid.
Spent $200,000 a Year.
The Heyes until last January lived
at the Hotel Langdon. According to
Attorney Willet, Heye was accus
tomed to spend $206-.0ri<) a year for
family expenses. Tn addition to apart
ments at the hotel, he maintained a
house in Madison Avnue and a coun
try place at Roslyn.
Former Judge Isaac F- Oeland.
counsel for Mrs. Heye, read a list of
expenditures due to what he alleged
was extravagance on the part of
Mrs. Heye., It was this list which
aroused the wrath of Justice Aspin-
Wal!.' Attorney Oeland declared that
of the $1,500,000 estate owned by his
client when he married the plaintiff
only $360,000 remained.
Although Judger Aspinwall an
nounced that he could readily give
his decision from the bench, he took
the papers in the case and reserved
his verdict.
