Two simple Hungarians,

obliterated, have succeeded in bring-
ing toa deadlock the Police Depart-
ment and the courts of justice of Greater
New York.

broke the bank at Monte Carlo ’left a.
path of rose petals behind him com-

The Newtown Cut-Rate Money Office

is hors du combat because its entire
capital stock, a flash roll of $2,080 of
genuine greenbacks, is locked up in
the vault of Property Clerk Harriott
at Police Headquarters.

Property Clerk Harriott rests at
night upon an uneasy pillow, too, for
the Ungvarys, pere et fils, secured
the legal services of Smith Lorenz be-
fore they went back home, and he set
about in the courts to have the $2,080
released to his rural clients. 9

Lorenz went to Police Magistrate
Connerton in Newtown, who discharged
the Ungvarys on the charge of dis"-
charging a' blunderbuss pistol at the
green-goods men, and got an order on
Harriott for the money.

But “Bartholomew Hayes,”
also discharged upon the charge of be-
ing a green-goods manipulator, also se-
curedthe services of a lawyer, Abra-
ham Levy, who has made a demand
upon Property Clerk Ha‘rf‘l.9.l§tsf.9£sfihe
flash roll.

Between the two fires, Pr oper ty Clerk
Harriott has thrown up. his hands in de
spair, openly committing contempt of

who was

' _ court in disobeying Magistrate Conner-

ton’s order. .,

“I have my bondsmen to think about,”
he says, “andI prefer contempt of court
to losing $2,080..

Yesterday he appealed at the office
of the Corporation Counsel to know
what to do with the $2,080. Until the
matter is thus ofiiciallyvdetermined the
humidity about the property clerk’s of-
fice at Police Headquarters will be sev-
eral degrees more intense than it is in
Chief Devery’s office, pending the ap-
pearance of the McCullagh election

The ngvarys have been caught in
the green-goods game once before and
had their fingers scorched. On the

night of September 15, they appeared ..

at the rendezvous of the Newtown gang,
and when the flash roll of $2,080 was
put on a table they opened fire on the
buncc-steerers, who fled leaving the
money behind. The Ungvarys were
arrested as they were stuffing their
pockets full of the genuine money and

the policeman took the money away
from them.

The New Hospital.

Members. of the State Hospital for
theInsane commission, came. to Nor-
walk, yesterday, and in company with
the Selectmen and prominent citizens,
visited the several proposed sites for a
new asylum to be located in Norwalk.

The commissioners returned home
and will make. the result of their visit
known later.

despite the rain, he put it to test, yes-

Mr. Ward was driving up West ave-
nue with the colt, when a portion of
the harness broke and he turned into
Crescent avenue, and,
proceeded to repair the damage.

At this juncture a railroad train
passed near by and the colt gave a start,
knocking its driver down, and proceed-

jumping out,

ed at a. lively clip into Harbor avenue.
to Chapel street, thenceto West ave-
nue and after a short spurt up the lat-
ter street, collided with, C.‘ F. Mead’s
tea wagon, where his little tilt ended
by his falling down.

He was taken into Dann & ‘Banks’
and, a short time after, Mr.
Ward appeared on the scene with a
somewhat bruise-:1 hand and leg, but
able to lead the runaway back to its
stables. ‘ I

The Ward wagon was wrecked and
that of Mr. Sherwood badly damaged.
