Y., July 19.—Suit has been commeuct d 111 ibe supreme court by lUry L. Mowatt, of Fifbki 1, against Theodore 0. Mowatt, Augustus W. Mowatt, John M. Mowatt, Adelia and Nicholas Hopper and Helen B. Saunter, of Fishkill Landing, Wines B. Mowatt, of Elmsford, rear Tarry town; and Hotter C. McFarland, of Brooklyn. It is brought to recover possession ol property valued at |500,000. During the Kjtime of James C. Mowatt, a brother ol the plaintiff, Mary was a favorite sister, and was educated at his expense. She afterwards lived at his home in MC xico, where he had large manufacturing interests, and traveled iu Europe with him. At his death in March, 18S8, he left all his property to Mary, ignor' ; seven brothers and sisters. Previous to the will being admitted to probate it is alleged that Theodore and Augustus Mowatt visited plaintiff at the home ol Hopper, and by threats of contest of tb« will and exposure of illicit relations betweet testator and testatrix obtained her signature to a document agreeing to divide all th» property, of which $110,000 was in cash and cash securities, equally among the defendants. She lived up to her agreement until she placed the matter before some friendi who explained to her the fraud that had been perpetrated, and she began the suit tc regain possession of her righta. Summonses have been Bigned and orden of arrest have been obtained from Judge Barnard against the brothers Theodore and Augustus and the brother-in-law Hoppei for conspiracy. There have attempts made to settle the case by defendants, but the matter will now go to the court* In the Qiiassaick bank there are $15,000 recently received as the semi-anuual dividend on Mexican property which the plaintiff declines to divide in the usual manner. vo!vliifs S300,0C0.

In ladies wear. Beautiful chillies from 5c to lie. Professor Hogan was born in Canada fortysix years ago. He went to live in Michigan when a boy, and his wife at present makes her home in that state. He began the uncanny profession of aerial navigation when only 18 years old, and has followed it steadily ever since. His record comprises over 400 balloon ascensions and thirty-two parachute" jumps, of varying wonder and danger, which makes Mm a worthy brother of Wise and Donaldson. Last year he exhibited for a week with his parachute at Far Rockaway beach and today was to have made a jump at Ottawa, Can. He was a medium sised man, weighing 170 pounds and possessed of remarkable nerve and pluck. He never drunk, and was a man who always kept his word, so his managers say. His friends still cling to the* hope that be may have been saved by seine hook or crook, and that he may be heard from. ButD» the chances for once are vastly against the aeronaut, whose courage had never deserted him in the twenty-eight years of his hazardous calling. Lowell's Horrible Fire.
