Finding as Result of Autopsy - Child Ill only One Day

An autopsy on the body of Miss Grace G. BANKS, aged 15, showed that the girl died of cerebro-spinal meningitis, Coroner KLEINDIENST has issued a certificate. The funeral will of necessity be private, as the malady, that brought about the girl's death is most dangerous.

Miss BANKS was a daughter of Mrs. Josephine BANKS, who lives at No. 16 Monroe avenue. She was an unusually bright and vivacious girl, and up to a week ago attended No. 12 School. On Monday last she began to work as a bundle girl in the Sibley store. On Thursday evening she complained of a headache. She remained home all day Friday. That night she died.

The autopsy yesterday morning yielded evidence that meningitis existed.

ARGUMENT MONDAY FOR CERTIFICATE FOR DAKE

Attorney Louis Jack Says He Has Made "Informal Application" to a Supreme Court Justice.

Attorney Louis JACK yesterday afternoon made informal application for a certificate of reasonable doubt in the case of George C. DAKE, under sentence to pay a fine of $250 and serve six months in the Monroe County Penitentiary for keeping a disorderly house. Mr. JACK withholds the name of the Supreme Court justice before whom the matter will be heard. He says argument will take place to-morrow, but not in this city.

Mr. JACK will make a hard fight for his client, as under the law the defendant is limited to a single application for a certificate of reasonable doubt. A stay of judgment was granted when sentence was imposed upon DAKE on Tuesday morning. It is operative until to-morrow morning. In order that the defendant may be released upon bail, a certificate of reasonable doubt will have to be obtained. The mere taking of an appeal will not stay judgment.

While counsel for the defense will base his argument on the same grounds that were covered in the motion for a new trial, he will, of course, argue at greater length.

The new move in the DAKE case brings several other cases in which charges are the same to the notice of the public. The next term of Criminal court will open on May 28th. With the opening of the new term. It is said that the District-Attorney will clear up all pending disorderly house cases.

Charles HOVEY, who ran a saloon next door to DAKE'S, will appear as a defendant. Other cases are those of William WILSON, of St. Paul street, and Lillian BLACK, of Courtland street.

AUTO BURNED SECOND TIME

Spark From Horse's Hoof Responsible for Total Ruin

A spark from a horse's hoof was responsible for the burning of an automobile belonging to a Rochester man in Cleveland, on Friday. The auto was the property of S. V.

WOULD SELL WHITCOMB HOUSE

Attorney for Plaintiffs in Partition Action Takes on Legal Tangle

J. R. FANNING, attorney for the plaintiff in the WHITCOMB partition action yesterday (unreadable) of the property. It is expected that an early adjustment of the troubles may be reached. He said:

"There is no reason why the WHITCOMB House cannot be sold at private sale. The legatees of Alonzo G. WHITCOMB are ready to make a sale at any time and the action of partition would not interfere. So far as the leasing of the property is concerned it can be leased now as well as any time since Mrs. WHITCOMB'S death. There are no legal tangles that cannot be readily straightened out. The partition action was not begun until May 17, 1905. The sale is likely to be consumated at anytime to parties outside of the city."

THINKS BODY IS THAT OF HER SON

Woman Sees Shirt That Drowned Man Wore

Man Missing Full Month

Richard Creighton, a Shoemaker, Sent His Pay Envelope Home, With message That He Was Going to Buffalo, and is Still Absent

The body found floating in the Genesee river at Charlotte on Friday afternoon was identified by the man's mother and sister at the morgue last night. The body is said to be that of Richard CREIGHTON, of No. 175 Spencer street, who had been (unreadable) since April (unreadable). CREIGHTON said the clothing was her son's. Both mother and daughter were overcome.

In yesterday's Democrat and Chronicle was published an account of the finding of the body, with an accurate description of the man and the clothing he wore. Miss Mary CREIGHTON read the story and was satisfied that the body was that of her brother. Last night, accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Anna CREIGHTON, she visited the morgue. Attendant MAHAR showed the clothing to the woman. When Mrs. CREIGHTON saw the shirt she burst into tears. She recognized it. She wanted to see the remains, but the morgue attendants did not think it advisable.

CREIGHTON was a shoemaker employed by Dugan & Hudson, manufacturers, of Lyell avenue. On Saturday night, April 14th, a young man appeared at the CREIGHTON home in Spencer street and gave Miss SPENCER her brother's pay envelope, saying that CREIGHTON was going to Buffalo that night and would return the following Sunday night.

A brother, John CREIGHTON, lives in Buffalo, and Richard often went to that city to visit him. Therefore the sending home of the pay envelope, with practically all of his week's wages, was received without misgivings by the mother and sister. They were not much worried at his continued absence from home, although they thought it rather strange that some tidings did not reach them from either of the brothers.

Coroner KLEINDIENST will begin a rigid examination of the case this morning. He does not suspect foul play, nor does Mrs. or Miss CREIGHTON. However, the coroner would like to find persons who were with CREIGHTON on that Saturday night. He expects to have an interview with the young man who took CREIGHTON'S money to his home. It looks strange that CREIGHTON did not go to Buffalo as he intended. He could not have fallen into the river above the upper falls, the coroner thinks, or his body would have been cut and bruised and some of the limbs fractured. As it is the body is bruised in a few places about the face, but not badly. No bones are broken.

Yesterday afternoon Attendant BENNETT, acting by direction of Coroner KLEINDIENST, visited all the laundries of the city, in the expectation that one of tem would identify the collar worn by the dead man when taken from the water. At the K?L?? laundry one of the markers thought she recognized the numbers. She gave the name of a young man who roomed in Gibbs street. He travels for a local shoe firm, and was last heard from in Pittsburg. He wrote his firm on Tuesday that he wanted $100. This young man is a Protestant. CREIGHTON was a Roman Catholic. His rosary was the only article found in his possession. He was about 36 years of age.

LIFELONG RESIDENT OF PITTSFORD DEAD

A. L. Crump, Who Held Important Offices in the Village Many Years

Pittsford, May 6 - Angelo L. CRUMP died Saturday evening at his home in his native village of Pittsford, Samuel J. CRUMP, of Hadlow, Kent, England, married Sarah CUTTING, of Woodbridge, Suffolk, England, at London, April 24, 1842. They then sailed for New York - a six weeks' voyage - and traveled up the Hudson to the Erie canal. Coming thence west by packet boat, they settled at Pittsford.

Angelo L. CRUMP, their son, was born February 12, 1848. He was married to Mary L. WARING, of Harpersfield, Ohio, September 8, 1869. She died eight years later, and Gilbert F. CRUMP, of Rochester, is their only surviving child. On December 27, 1881, he married Caroline VAN AKEN, of Fairport, and she and their three children, Edna HALL CRUMP, Emily G. CRUMP and Mary C. CRUMP, survive him. He also leaves his step-mother, Mrs. Susan CRUMP, of Pittsford; two sisters and four brothers; Mrs. Eva WILLMARTH, Miss Ida CRUMP, Shelly G. CRUMP and Dr. Irving J. CRUMP, all of Pittsford; William J. CRUMP, of Bay City, Mich., and Dr. Walter G. CRUMP, of New York city.

Mr. CRUMP was for many years a steadfast member and valued supporter of the First Presbyterian Church of Pittsford, and for the last six years had been the treasurer of the church and one of its trustees. Throughout his life he was an active Republican, a sincere believer in his party's principles, and many times he helped carry its local standard to success. Since 1890 he had been treasurer of the Board of Education of this village. For four years past he had been treasurer of the village, and many terms he held the offices of town clerk and justice of the peace. So respected was he and so liked that frequently no one opposed him as a candidate.

At the time of his death he was governor of Pittsford Chapter, No. 1,677, of the American Guild, a position which he had occupied since that order's consolidation with K. S. F. I., December 22, 1902. He was also a charter member of Pittsford Lodge, No. 862, I. O. O. F., of which he had been chaplain several terms. Four months ago, failing health compelled him to reign the position he had held for thirty-eight years in the store of his brother, S. G. CRUMP. Since then he had been most of the time confined to his home.

Mr. CRUMP resided in Pittsford all his life, and the house that had been his home in later years stands upon the same lot and contains the timbers of the house in which he was born. Daily during the fifty-eight years of his life he endeared himself to those who knew him, and served his family, his friends, his government and his church with loyalty, ability and cheerfulness.

SUDDEN DEATH OF AN OLD RESIDENT

John P. Frazer, of Victor, Died of Heart Disease, Successful in Business

Victor, May 6 - John P. FRAZER, one of the oldest residents of this village, died suddenly at noon Saturday. He had been about the streets during the forenoon in apparently his usual health and had gone to his boarding house for dinner. He had nearly finished his meal when , without a word, he fell out of his chair to the floor dead. A physician and coroner were at once summoned, who pronounced the cause of his death to be heart disease.

Mr. FRAZER was one of the pioneer business men of the town, having come to Victor in young manhood and entering at once into business life. For nearly fifty years he carried on the hardware and tinsmith business until about three years ago, when he retired to private life. He lived to see the village grow from a small hamlet to its present proportions and was always active and interested in any movement that tended to promote its growth and prosperity.

In politics he was a strong Republican and in the years past had done much locally for that party. He was a lifelong member of the First Methodist Episcopal Church of this village and was for years one of its strongest supporters and most liberal givers. Mr. FRAZER was a man who was highly respected in the community in which he had lived for so many years, and his presence will be greatly missed on the streets where for so long he had been a familiar figure.

President FORBES added that there was no foundation whatever for the report that Principal Anna V. M. JONES, of NO. 27 School, had tendered her resignation. It is understood that the resignation of Julius TOWNSEND of No. 6; Anna M. GALBRAITH, of No. 31; Sarah SHELTON, of No. 18, and Edmund P.

FURTHER STAY GRANTED IN CASE OF GEORGE DAKE

Pending Decision on Argument for Reasonable Doubt Certificate Made in Canandaigua.

Application was made before Justice DUNWELL of the Supreme Court in Canandaigua late yesterday afternoon for a certificate of reasonable doubt in the case of George C. DAKE, recently convicted of keeping a disorderly house. The application was made by Attorney Louis H. JACK and was opposed by Assistant District-Attorney Willis A. MATSON.

A stay of judgment in the case was granted by Judge STEPHENS for five days, this term having expired yesterday. DAKE had been sentenced to six months in the penitentiary and a fine of $250. At the close of the argument yesterday Justice DUNWELL granted a further stay until the determination of the application for the certificate of reasonable doubt.

The application was made on the ground that the court erred in charging the jury and that illegal evidence was received over the objections of the defense. The portion of the charge objected to was to the effect that if the jury deduced from all the testimony that women of evil character frequented DAKE'S place, it could be assumed that men of like caliber were there.

Justice DUNWELL gave the attorneys until Saturday to submit briefs. If an early decision is returned, an effort will be made to have the appeal at the present term of the Appellate Division.

FELL DOWN ELEVATOR SHAFT

Electrician Tumbled Thirty Feet and is Not Seriously Injured

Homer McDONALD, an electrician, aged 20, fell thirty feet in an elevator shaft yesterday afternoon. The accident occurred so suddenly that he has little recollection of how it happened. He is at the Homeopathic Hospital with a broken nose, a bruised lip and bumps on the body and legs. He will be able to leave the hospital in a few days.

McDONALD was at work about an elevator in the Reed shoe factory at North Goodman street and Anderson avenue. He does not know how he came to walk into the open shaft, as a car had but a moment before passed upward. He stepped into the shaft, however, and the next moment he was lying at the bottom, bruised and bleeding, but not unconscious. He was helped out of the shaft and the ambulance of the Homeopathic Hospital was sent for.

The surgeons marvel at McDONALD'S escape from serious injury. He lives at No. 47 Norton street.

JURY FOUND FOR DEFENDANT IN CASE AGAINST ROCHESTER RAILWAY COMPANY

County Judge BENTON yesterday handed down a decision granting a motion for a new trial in the case of George CAMPBELL against the Rochester Railway Company. CAMPBELL sued for damages for injuries received in being thrown from a car of defendant company. On the trial a verdict was found by the jury for the defendant.

Judge BENTON holds that the verdict was contrary to the evidence. The testimony of disinterested witnesses, he says, "makes it reasonably clear to my mind that the car was started while the plaintiff was in the act of getting on board and that by the negligence of the defendant in so doing, without fault on the plaintiff's part, he was thrown to the ground and injured. This made a case for such damages as would compensate."

The motion to set aside the verdict is granted with $10 costs to the plaintiff, to abide the event of the motion.

DEATH OF A PIONEER OF WAYNE COUNTY

Henry Garlic, One of the Most Respected Residents of North Rose

North Rose, May 7 - The death of Henry GARLIC, one of the oldest and most respected citizens of this place, occurred Saturday evening after a brief illness, aged 83 years. He was an active farmer for one of his years and until three years ago, when his horse ran away and he was injured, he enjoyed the best of health.

Mr. GARLIC was the last of fourteen children of Captain GARLIC, who was a soldier in the Revolutionary days, having served eighteen months in the patriot army. He was a native of Huntington, Conn., and came to Galen in 1810. Captain GARLIC passed away at the age of 80 years. His father lived to be 110 years of age. At the time of the GARLICS' moving to Galen this country was a wilderness. Henry GARLIC said his mother rode her horse by blazed trees from Galen to the old Mudge store in Wolcott to do a little trading. From Galen the family came to Rose, settling on the Messenger farm.

His first wife was Sally, daughter of Eli GARLIC, who died many years ago, and by whom Mr. GARLIC had four children, three of whom survive, Charles H., of this village; Frank, of West Rose, and Mrs. Frank RIGGS, North Huron. Mr. GARLIC'S second wife, who was Miss Lydia ELDRIDGE, also survives him. Henry succeeded his father on the farm but much of his life was passed in the grist mill and blacksmith. For a long time he ran the mill in Glenmark, and later the blacksmith shop in North Rose.

Sudden Death of George B. Richardson

Veteran Among Printers

Mr. Richardson Was one of the Oldest Printers in the Country. A Native of Schuyler County. Worked with Josh Billings

Bath, May 7 - George B. RICHARDSON died very suddenly at his home in William street west, at an early hour this morning, heart disease being the cause of death. He retired in his usual health and awoke at midnight, complaining to his wife of feeling badly. A physician was hastily summoned, and Mr. RICHARDSON was afforded all possible aid, but in the midst of the ministrations suddenly expired.

In his death this community loses one of its oldest and most esteemed residents. Mr. RICHARDSON was 87 years old, and Bath had been his home for the past sixty-five years. He was a native of the town of Jefferson, now Watkins, in Schuyler county, and passed his early life on his father's farm. He was married in 1854 to Eliza WILLOUR, and lived to celebrate his golden wedding anniversary, its celebration being important social function two years ago.

Mr. RICHARDSON was a member of the Bath Presbyterian church. His survivors are his wife, a daughter, Mrs. Mark COBURN, of Buffalo, and two daughters, Misses Lena and Jennie RICHARDSON, who reside at home.

Mr. RICHARDSON enjoyed the distinction of being one of the oldest printers in the United States. His advent in Bath was in 1841, when he entered the office of the Bath Constitutionalist for a seven-years' apprenticeship in the art preservative. The Constitutionalist has since been merged into the Steuben Farmers' Advocate. As the Constitutionalist it was conducted by the late William C. RHODES. Mr. RICHARDSON was for many years in the employ of the Steuben Courier, under its founder, the late Henry H. HULL. He was afterwards connected with the Corning Journal, where he formed a close personal friendship for Brick POMEROY, and worked at the case with Josh BILLINGS, NASBY and Arsemus WARD.

His reminiscences of the early methods of printing were most interesting, and a praphic account of the early methods, the advancement and history of the Southern Tier press was given by him in an address at the Bath centennial in 1893, which is preserved in the archives of the town. Mr. RICHARDSON observed the sixty-fifth anniversary of his starting the trade only last week, by setting a stick of type, in the Bath Plaindealer office, a custom which had been his for a number of years.

Justice CLARK opened the May term of the Supreme Court yesterday and swore in his first Grand Jury. He made his charge briefly, urging secrecy in deliberations. There are few cases to be investigated and unless something unexpected happens, it is believed that the jury will rise at the end of the week.

The first case to be taken up for trial was that of Susan E. MACLYMONT and others against Christina OOTHOUT, the suit to break the will of Samuel N. OOTHOUT, who left the bulk of his property to his widow and only $40,000 of a $700,000 estate to be divided among four grandchildren.

GLEASON, farmer, Rush; Louis P. HAPP, merchant, Gates; Frank A. HARNED, superintendent, Eleventh ward; L. J. HARRINGTON, manager, Twentieth ward; Lewis E. HORSCHER, harnessmaker, Pittsford; Andrew J.
