MONDaMT JEVEMXG, JANUARY Mx HE HIT A SENTRY And Will Probably Pay Dearly for the Blow. Fists Cannot be Used Willi Iinnunity in tho Navy Yard Throe Years' Imprisonment May be the Penalty. Private William H. Faintes of the marines in in serious trouble and as the remit of what would be a trivial offense on land may spend the next three years of his existence in the Penitentiary. On the eveninc; of the ith Faintes returned to his ship, the Vermont, very much elated from, the numerous potations in which he had indulged, and became demonstrative.

Some of his frieud tried to quiet him, but he persisted in making a noise. Private Burke, the nearest sentry, endured the commotion as long as ho thought consistent with the dignity of the Navy, and ordered Faintes to subside, threatening him wiih arrest if he did not obey at once. Burke got within reach during the parley and before the astonished sentry could step back and bring bin bayonet to bear, the drunken marine gave him a solid blow with his left. Faint was then au rested and taken to the guard Saturday afternoon a court martial was held, Captain Howell, of the Atlanta, being president: Lieutenant Denny, of the Murines, judge advocate, and Lieutenants Stevens, Niks. Bowman, Kellogg, Diehl and Peters, members.

An adjournment was taken to this morning at It)' o'clock to give tho accused a chance to proeurtl counsel, Lieutenant Monahau declining to aoi further for him. This morning Faintes had one elseengaged and the lieutenant consented to take his case again. Corporal Fox was examined for tho prosecution and the court adjourned till to morrow at 10 o'clock. Said Lieutenant Denny: "Faintes' offense is a serious inn and wc may scud him to the penitentiary, if we wish, for any period not more than three years. The charges made against him are, first, drunkenness, and, second, assaulting another person in tho navy.

Striking a sentry is always a very serious offense." JIDN'BY 31A11KRT 'JLOSJN'ii ISSiVKtT. Kailroail learnings The Passenjrc 'rroublcH i tlie IVcsS Settled Pro Yioxert foreclosure, ok' Ue aafi Atlantic Sloclta 7''yr earlier rth pige. Wai.i, Strkkt. Jauntry i 3 P. M.

Ii is reported at Chicago that an adjourned meeting of presidents will be le id lite in tho mouth to adopt measures for carrying the new agreement into effect. It is thought that Mr. Midgeley will be made chairman of the Kxeoutivo Board. It is announced thai there will be no dividend on Eric preferred, as the directors have taken tho money which eon I'd be applied to a dividend and spent it on improvements. There is a report that the St.

The decision of the Ohio Supreme Court tha stocks of railroads iu thai State are taxable, has created a flurry among holders ir these properties A foreclosure of the Chicago and Atlantic will place this road in the hands uf Ihe Krioand enable it to control the rates.

I havo had occasion many times to be before him in his official position, and I can testify to the' fidelity with which he discharged his important duties and to his kindness of spirit. He was painstaking and conscientious, yet always affable in the discharge of the very important duties which devolved upon him. I was shocked to hear of his decease. I had not supposed that ho was even in ill health, and it was a great surprise to me to learn that he died suddenly yesterday. His loss will bo felt.

He had been active in business in Brooklyn for many years. He had very many acquaintances who had come to know him well, to respect him and to love him because of his uniform kindness. I never in my life saw li'nu out of temper, never saw him manifest any feeling or ill will or resentment. I second the motion that has been made by Judge Dailey. I think it is due to his memory, due to his worth that this marl; of respect should bo shown him.

Judge Van Wy. The Court thinks that it is most appropriate that it should adjourn outof respect for a dead brother whom we all admired and loved, who was a conscientious and able judge, whose death is a great loss, not only to the bench but to the community, socially and proles uonally. Therefore, this court, out of respect to his memory, will stand adjourned until 10 mcrrow morning at 1 0 o'clock. Under the law, in the absence or death of the Surrogate, the County Judge is empowered to act as Surrogate. Judge Moore adjourned the Court of Sessions for a brief period to transact such matters in the Surrogate's court as required immediate attention.

After the death of Surrogate Jacob I. Bergen, some years ago, Judge Moore acted as Surrogate until the Governor filled the vacancy, but he confined himself to signing ex parte documents and attending to non litigated motions, but he thought it better to leave contented cases for the incoming Snrrogafo to decide. It is probable that Judge Moore will follow the same course in this instance, as it would manifestly be impossible for him to undertake to pass upon litigated matters in the Surrogate's Court in addition to the business of his own court. The Court of Sessions did not adjourn, because of the criminal eases set down for trial to day and which should be i Lpnsed of in justice to the accused persons who are in jail awaiting trial. The funeral of the late Surrogate Abraham Lott will take place next Wednesday afternoon the private services at the late residence in Flatbush nt o'clock and the public ceremony in tho old Ill formed Church of Flatbush at o'clock.

Uev. Dr. Cornelius Wells, the pastor, is a brother in law of the late Surrogate. Despite the fact that the funeral of the late Surrogate is yet to take place, the politicians havo already named candidates for the office which Mr. Lott tilled for halt' a term.

The Governor will appoint a successor to the deceased, to fill the oftice until next Fall; then there will be a Surrogate elected by the people. Counselor Thomas A. Pearsall is regarded as a strong candidate for the oliice. Mr. Pearsall is an experienced lawyer, is an active Democrat, and is president of the Constitution Club.

He has rendered his party effective service on the stump in many campaigns, and has numerous friends in the organizations. Mr. Pearsall was a candidate for City Judge, when the nomination was given to Hon. William J. Osborne.

Mr. Pearsall worked zealously for Mr. Osborne's election, aud this is one of the reasons why the politicians think Mr. Pearsall will be given the Surrogateship. He was also a candidate for the nomination which Judge Augustus Van Wyck received.

He has invariably taken defeat with good grace, did not sulk iii his tent when bis party needed his services, and so it has come to be accepted as a fact by some politicians that Mr. Pearsall would be rewarded with a county office as soon there should be an opening. He resides in the Twenty second ward and the Democrats of that ward are backing him. Mr. George B.

Abbott, of the First Ward, is also considered a prominent candidate for the succession to the late Surrogate. Mr. Abbott is public administrator and is said to be eminently qualified to perforin the duties of Surrogate. lie is a genial gentleman who has a large circle of friends, is an active Democrat and stands well with the leaders and rank aud file of hi.s party. It is said that had Mr.

Lott lived to serve out his term of office Mr. Abbott would have been a strong candidate for tho nomination for Surrogate. As a matter of fact, it is stated that Mr. Abbott was slated for the nomination some time ago. KlIOIlTKIt I.OSK NO TIM Special to the Eagle.) Ai.uany, N.

January 14. Colonel John U. Shorter, Assistant District Attorney of Kings County, appeared before Governor Hill this morning to ask the appointment of Mr. William B. Davenport to Jill the office of Surrogate made vacant by the death of the lion.

Abraham Lott. Mr. Shorter dwelt on the merits of Mr. I a enport as a man and a Democrat, and the Governor said he would give the application personal attention. THE IlOAltl) OF ALDERMEN'.

A Proposition to Spend for Sewer liuiirmcnwats. The Board of Aldermen met this afternoon nt o'clock, President MeCarty not being then present Alderman Pickering was called to the chair. The roll call showed that there was not a quorum of members on baud, so a recess for five minutes was ordered. At the expiration of that time all of the members were present and President MeCarty took the chair. Alderman Wafer, the successor of Mr.

Kane, occupied his seat for tho first time. The Board directed the Controller to pay to the treasurerof the G. A. It. Committee the appropriation of i regularly made in the tax vv for that organization.

This was done on recommendation of the Fins nee Commit tec, hieh was the only committee reporting to day. Commissioner Adams wrote, calling attention to the iii. ufneiont capacity of the Bond street sew. and inclosing a resolution au tliorivin" the issue of bonds in an amount not exceeding Jlt.000. for the purpose of oonstnicting a.

rcli sewer in Baltic street, from Bond to Court street, and thciic through either Harrison or Bailie street, a tie commissioner might determine. Coinmissto Adams said that damage, to property resulted from tin ovi llouin of the sewer, and it was to relieve th city from obligation that the work should be done. The new sewer should extend from Be: 1 tr et to the East liiver, through Baltic or on sh eet. The chief engineer had not yet de it which of lie. sc two streets was the more Aid.

Coli'ev said that as no i had been reached bv tic engineer, tie solution should go to the Wat ei and Drainage Commiiiee. it was so referred. U'l. Ulaek offered a resolution ordering e.e tric lights for Grove street and Greene aveioe oppo What Assembly man McCarreii Has to Say About ISis Bill. Assomblyman Patrick Henry McCarron was at the City Hall to day and talked a little about tho bill he had introduced for the erection of a bridge between the Eastern District of Brooklyn and New York City.

Mr. McCarren said that the people of the Eastern District were unanimously in favor of the bill. Such a bridge would largely increase that section of the city and have, a tendency to build up the interior of Long Island. Thero was no polities in the measure. It was a bill simply to meet an urgent and immediate necessity.

Tho compiny would bo capitalized at $5,000,000, and tho men in tho movement were confident that a bridge similar to the one now in existence could be built now for considerably less than that one. The. cost of steel had been materially lessened since the erection of the present bridge and the experience of engineers had increased. Mr. McCarren said that the construction of tho Black well's Island Bridgo appeared to bo assured and the tendency of that structure would be to put the Eastern District in a pocket and draw largely from the population of tho district.

Ho did not anticipate any opposition to his bill from the New York City legislators, for ho thought they believed that the more bridges thero wore th better it would be for the two cities. The New York press might oppose it on the plea that tho bridge would draw people from that city to the Eastern District. EUM IN DANGER The South Brooklyn Priests Mean Business. Whal of Tlicm Declares that an Order from the Hishop Would Accomplish. Assuming? the Proportions oia Cru t.itle.

The big League of tho Cross mass meeting held in the academy of St. Peter's Boniau Catholic Church, last evening, filled the building to the doors. The branch of the league organized with Father Fra.usiuli as spiritual director. Joseph O'Brien as president, William Hennessy as vice president, and Charles A. Webber as secretary.

Speeches were made by Tatbev Barry, Lawyer Webber and Father Duliigg, and over "00 men took the pledge. Over soo men are therefore enrolled in this first branch of the League among Brooklyn's Boman Catholic churches, and as each of these men assumes the duty of spreading tem perance sentiments among his fellows, the number will rapidly increase. An Eaui.k reporter went among the saloons of St. Peter's parish this morning. Some of those who ep them are strong men iu the Sixth Ward Democratic Association.

Congressman Peter Paul Mahoney has a saloon on President street, near Hicks. P. II. Butler has a saloon corner of Bergen and Hicks streets, and John and James Dunne keep a place on Hicks street, near Warren, while Kinnot and Shannon have three or four saloons iu the parish. Most of these gentlemen were away from their saloons, aud those of them who were found preserved a silence complete and pronounced as it was unanimous.

Tho truth of the matter is just this; The liquor dealers are confronted by an enemy to peculiarly dreaded. If the priests of the Boman Catholic Church attack them they arc powerless. Almost all the saloon keepers in the western portion of the city are nominal Boman 'Catholics themselves, nd (hey are restrained from raising their hand. Tagaiiist the priests by two considerations iir. tiy, their own reverence aud respect; secondly, t'tu irowu shreivdness and consideration for their personal interests and safety.

If they raise a hand against the parish priest they know that their own p.itro their staunohost henchmen, would be the first to turn on them. Why," said a priest (not of St. Peter's parish) to an Eaole reporter this morning: If I had the orders of my bishop I would hoist the shutters in every saloon of my pari. in twenty four hours. There is no rpiestion of the power of the Church to restrain or put a slop to the liquor traffic among iheir own people.

Let the bishop give orders and sec how quickly it will be done." Falher Ward, of St. Charles Borromco's Church, in Sidney place, hail a big temperance mass meeting in his church last evening, and a number of men signed the total abstinence pledge. He said to day: The solution of the whole intemperance problem, it to me. lies Iirst, in the reduction of the number of saloons to a minimum, and the imposition of the maximum' license fee, and second, in absolutely forbidding saloon keepers to sell liquor to minors under any consideration or for any purpose. Keep the young folks out of the saloons altogether.

That is the point. A child goes to a saloon to get beer or alo or whisky for tin old Adks. an 1 he or she reasons that if the liquor is good for the old it ought to be good also for the young. On the stairs or in the dark hallway the child Iries the liquor and gradually acquires a taste for it. It thus becomes accustomed to barrooms and addicted to liquor.

Therefore let the old folks with the liquor habit on them go their way. Nothing but a miracle can restore them, but save the young folks by punishing liquor dealers who supply or serve them with such severe penalties that it will be stopped." But although the saloon keepers will not say anything against tins League of tho Cross and will not dare to fight it secretly or openly, the brewers will not succumb. They will probably threateu to defeat any legislation the church may want if it persist;) in attacking the liquor business, and they are not by any means to be despised. As an intelligent liquor dealer said today: "The brewers own seven tenths of the saloons in Brooklyn. They are the men who are forcing the business beyond all legitimate bounds.

They are the lin.u who are putting saloons on every corner. They have a big output of beer and ale and to sill it (icy start new saloons and give very big measure to their Tln keep forcing the demand and the orders they give to their servants, the nominal owners of the place is to have no opinions, say nothing, mix with no movement, but reach right out for last cent. Some of them take all kinds of risks, keeping their places open after hours and will open on Sundays, and selling to any child that comes along." Till Jl'DiJK T(KK OF iWcCnrlhy Etoes Imp rows t'otirt Favorably. Bridget McCarthy, of 10S Thirty ninth street, appeared in the Butler street police court this morning to prosecute her husband, Sylvester, for beating her. She said that her better half was a heavy drinker, was continually abusing her and gave little or nothing toward the supp irl of herself or their children.

Sylvester made counter charges against his wife. "How many drinks have you had this morning?" asked Justice Massey when the defendant took the stand. "Nothing at all, your Honor, except a glass of beer." Your breath is strong enough to kill a horse. You needn't testify any Your Honor, I hope you will punish him," said his wife. Yes, and if I should send him away you would be here in less than a week to beg him oft'." "No, I wouldn't judge.

I can get along very well without him." "All right, I'll take charge of him until the and on that date I will see whether you have changed your mind." MRS. GOULD'S DEATH. tleusajfcs of Sympathy Kecoivcd From all Paris of tlie Country. Jay Gould received a largo number of messages of sympathy this morning from friends all over the country. The ushers were kept busy attending to the messenger boys who called nt the Fifth avenue mansion, in New York, where Mrs.

Gould died last night. Mr. Gould and his family, who have been so constant in their attendance on the sick wife and mother, were completely prostrated and worn out from fatigue. Dr. Baldwin, who attended Mrs.

Gould, looked weary this morning. He lias been constantly at the bed.dde of Mrs. Gould during the past few weeks. The funeral, the arrangements for which have not yet been made, will, at the distinct wish of Mis. Gould, be of the simplest character.

ISl'X DOWN BY A TltAIN. Charles Christ, a tailor at Hyde Park, was driving to Garden City yesterday morning to attend service at the cathedral and meeting Mrs. Iler konoron the highway invited her to ride. When they reached the railroad crossing Her koner said she thought a train was approaching and Christ reined the horse in and listened. Concluding there was no danger he drove on and was struck by the Patchogite express train.

Christ fell on the track and was horribly mangled. Mrs. llerhoncr was thrown a considerable distance, sustaining a broken collar bone and a ,,) rn Kli. remnine'd unconscious until late last night. A high embankment made it impossible to sec along the track to the westward.

WHILE AT I'llAYKK MEETING. Morris W. Corr. of Baltic street, reported to the police that, while he was absent from his residence yesterday afternoon, between 4 and (i o'clock, attending a prayer meeting at the Cuylor Mission, Atlantic avenue, a sneak thief entered his domicile and stole a beaver overcoat valued at 20 from the hat rack. The thief gained entrance by means of false keys.

WANDEItED AWAY Fit 031 HOME. George Lynch, aged 70 years, left his home in tho Fourteenth Ward, last Saturday afternoon, for the purpose of taking a walk. Ho is in his dotage and wandered away ho knew not whither. His relatives were worried over his absence and prosecuted a vigorous search for him. Ho was found yesterday in the Eighteenth Precinct Station, Now York, and taken homo.

WOKK ON THE I'EDEKAL BUILDING. The schooner Bodwell, overduo two weeks and believed to be lost, has at last arrived, and work on tho Federal Building has been resumed. The basement of the addition is nearly completed and on Wednesday work on the Post Office tloor will begin. 1 DIKECTOItS OK THE 31. Tho Board of Trustees of the Brooklyn Athe noum met to day and re elected the fifteen directors.

J. W. Do Graw, J. A. Lowo and Ira II.

Moore were elected inspectors of election, Tho officers for the ensuing year will be elected Mrs. Titus Now Claims That It Was Sent to Her by Her Son. A respectable looking woman, who gave her name as Mrs. Titus and her residence us tho northeast corner of Second street and Wythe avenue, called at the Lee avenue Station this afternoon to inquire what she had better do about a box containing silverware intended for her, which is now in the possession of Mr. Henry L.

Ash, 187Penn street. The story of the box has already appeared in the Eaole. Mrs. Titus and her daughter, who accompanied her, said that they called nt Mr. Ash's house to claim the box, but they got no satisfaction there from the parties they saw.

Thoy then visited the Lee avenue station. "I received a letter from my son in Boston a few days Mrs. Titus said to Captain Gorman, "iu which ho asked mo how I liked the box which he had sent me before Christmas as a present. I am certain the box Mr. Ash has waa mino and I must have it at any cost." Mrs.

Titus was directed to the Flashing avenue station and she departed. Mr. Ash, who is in business at 55 John street, New York, will, no doubt, surrouder the box and its contents if he is satisfied that it was not intended for him. Mrs. Titus cannot prove at present that the box was intended for her, so an investigation will have to bo made before tho question of ownership can bo determined.

Mr. Ash's modest friends had better come to tho front and state if they sent the box to him as a present, otherwise Mrs. Titus and her daughter will make a hot fight for it. FATHER HAMILTON QUITE DOCILE. A largo number of people went to St.

Monica's Church, in Jamaica, yesterday morning, expecting to hear Father Hamilton arraign tho Woman's Christian Temperance Union and assail the newspapers. The priest was very docile and, after referring to tho fact that tho ladies had invited him to co operate with thorn in temperance work, he said: "To close all publicity on this matter, I may say that I am not at liberty, by reason of the circumstances, to co operate with other churches on moral or religious subjects. Consequently, the invitation of tho ladies cannot be complied He repeated his command that the boys of the parish keep away from the union's headquarters. WALSH LEADS The Race for an Associate Superintendency. A Public School Priucipal Who is Likely to he Promoted by the Board of Education To morrow.

It is not often that there is a chance offered to become Assistant Superintendent of Public Instruction. Though tho term is ostensibly for three years an appointee holds his place for life if ho takes care of himself. It is only the recent death of Assistant Superintendent Cunningham which has made tho chance for appointment tomorrow. From the ranks of tho principals thero come enough candidates to make the race for the position an interesting one. A principalship is a life place, but there is enough difference between $3,000 and $4,000 to make it worth acquiring.

Priucipal John Gallagher, of the Training School, was at first talked of as Cunningham's successor, but ho has been in competition before without success, and has recently been fortunate enough to get a principalship which is worth a year, so that the bird in the hand satisfied him to day. John Mickleborough, of Public School No. 0, is suggested by Mr. Itoive, but is making no canvass for himself. It may be that his previous experience as Normal School principal in Cincinnati will aid him some.

Tho most promising candidate, so far as votes are concerned, is Mr. John H. Walsh, of No. Mr. Walsh is short and stout, but he gets around in a very lively way and roaches up pretty high.

Mr. Walsh held a political position in tho Custom House, until three years ago, when ho became a school principal. His ability is conceded, but he lacks tho educational experience of somo others. His campaign has been an aggressive one. His friends have secured, as they claim, enough pledges fo make him a winner.

His election is a possibility. Mr. Walsh's rotundity graces the Board meetings with commendable regularity, and he knows as many members as does any other principal. Dr. Griffin is Principal Walsh's loading supporter, and the doctor is just the man to conduct a quiet canvass for pledges.

Principal Frank of ,1 is, next to Walsh, the most prominent and promising candidate. Some number of members are pledged to him, and Mr. Scott is making an earnest canvass for him. Some will vote for him who would have preferred Walsh if he had had the experience. Principal L.

F. Lewis would make an excellent assistant iperiutendciit, and Civil Service Be form would give it him in consideration of his years of service. He has a friend in Mr. Dresser and would like the appointment, but is not aggressive enough Seth T. Stewart, of No.

lti, and George N. Carman, of No. 15, are in the field, and their names will be mentioned. They could fill the place if they got it. Walter B.

Gunnison was spoken of for the appointment, but has refused to be a candidate. He could win if he went iu for the place. THE URAXD in (lie Cozirt of SessionM for tile 'Jt'uriu.

ISAAC HALL. Tlie Curator ok' line TOclropolilaii 3Iu Mcum nt tlie EEnmilton Club. Dr. Isaac Hall, curator of tho Metropolitan Museum, was entertained at dinner at tho Hamilton Club, on Saturday night, by Mr. Caskie Harrison, of this city.

Charles II. Hall, D. the rector of Holy Trinity; Mr. St. Clair MeKelway, Mr.

Kellogg aud Mr. W. V. Tuppcr. Dr.

Isaac Hall subsequently addressed the members of the club on John, the Idolbreaker," a Christian bishop of the Sixth Century. The address was a very scholarly review of the memoirs of the bishop written in tho Syriac'and reprinted on the Clarendon press. Oxford. After a delightful speech by the Bev. Dr.

Hall, a vote of thanks was unanimously tendered to the speaker of the evening for his instructive and thoughtful paper. SUMJ1AK1LY DISPOSED OF. A Figfliter, a Stone Thvowcr and Several Corner fjouitirera. Several men and boys were arraigned before Justice Kenna this morning charged with violating certain city ordinances. Francis King, 10 years old, was lined $1 for lounging.

David Creamer paid the same amount for throwing stones. Frederick Sands, another corner lounger, was' fined fl. John Wilson, Denis MeCarty and James MoGrath lounged on Clifton place and insulted women as they passed by.

They went to jail for ten days. TIIE (iBADE OF NINTH STUUET. City Works Commissioner Adams was asked by a committee of South Brooklyn property owners to day to have the grade of Ninth street near the canal bridge raised. They said the bridge was so low that it had to be kept open nearly all the time, and that the bridgo foundations should be elevated five or six feet and tho street grade also raised. This change would enable small vessels to pass under the bridge without opening it.

Commissioner Adams promised the visitors that he should carefully consider the matter. They had a talk with Chief Engineer Van Buren on the blibject and then left. SATURDAY NIGHT BUKGLABIKS. Or. Saturday night a quantity of jewelry and clothing, valued at $ti50, was stolen from 1 ,000 Bergen street, the residence of Edward Aboel.

The thief got into the house by tho rear basement during the absence of the family. On tho same night W. W. Talley's jewelry store, at OIU DeKalb avenue, was entered by means of false keys. Plated ware valued at $100 was carried off.

BENDEK WAIVKS KX.UIIXATI ON. Henry G. Bender, the man who was arrested on Saturday on a charge of having passed bogus cheeks on several piano dealers, waived examination before Judge Walsh to day and was held to await tho action of tho Grand Jury.

Faseenger train No. 8,011 the New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad, was wrecked two and one half miles east of Tallmadeo this morning. The accident was caused by the breaking in two of freight train No.

81. It was a head on collision and took place while the broken section was being picked up. The killed are Robert Huntington, engini er; W.rT. Thomas, baggage master; W. H.

Lundy, express messenger: Wallers, fireman; a little girl and two Chinamen, names unknown. The engineer and fireman of the freight train escaped with slight injuries, Cleveland, 0., January 1 4. A few minutes after the accident occurred flames had begun to shoot out of the baggage car and smoker. The passengers and train people immediately began the work of rescuing tho injured and dead from the wreck. The coach in the rear of the Bnioker was badly damaged, and the end of the baggage car had crushed far into tho smoker.

The telegraph operator at Tallmadge places the number of injured at twelve, but the company's officials think he exaggerates. As soon as tlie injured and dead were removed from tho second coach, which caught fire, the two sleepers were detached and pushed back by hand out of reach of the names. None of the passengers in tho slcepe. wore injured and all persons who escaped death were placed in the sleepers and an extra engine, conveyed them to a side track, where the next east bound train coupled to them and proceeded to Loavittsburg. These people arrived in Cleveland ninety minutes later.

The officials at the general office refused to give the names of the injured. A LONG TIME FOIl HIM.

COLE'S SLIGHT. Why He Gave Aspinall the Cold Shoulder. Thomas C. Piatt Takes a Hand in the Discussion Senatorial Asp'rations Influenced Hie Speaker. Senator Thomas C.

Piatt was not at all plcaRed to learn that Mr. Joseph Aspinall, the young Be publioan Assemblyman from Kings County, had been left out in the cold by Speaker Cole, and that instead of placing him upon geod committees Cole had almost entirely ignored him. To an Eagle reporter to day Mr. Piatt said: "No one in New York was more surprised than I was at the slight put upon Mr. Aspiuwall.

I was given to understand by friends of the speaker that the Assemblymen from Kings would not be overlooked in the makeup of the committees. I was especially interested in Aspiuwall. I called Mr. Colo's special attention to him, and I cannot understand why he was left out. I wish my friends in Kings County to understand that it was not done with my consent or approval.

I have written to Mr. Colo about the matter, and I have no doubt that Mr. Aspinall will get the first thing that comes along and is within the gift of the speaker." Mr. Aspinall himself is very outspoken about his own case. "I received," he said, a personal pledge from Mr.

Cole. It was on the railroad train and wo were both coming to New York, after tho organi tion of the Legislature. I informed the speaker that I hoped he would not punish mo for my support of Mr. Hnsted, and that I was sure that if he gave my claims consideration he vould give satisfaction to the Republican)) of Kings County and particularly to the friends of Mr. Piatt.

'Don't you worry about he said after I had finished; 'I Bhall take good euro of One of Speaker Colo's intimate friends said to an E.uile reporter in Now York to day: "Cole was forced to do exactly as he has. He expects to bo a candidate for the Senate next year, and ho has received promises of support from nearly all the principal Bepublieans in his district. He had to take hese men or go by the Board. He is just as friendly as ever he was to Mr. Piatt and his friends, but felt that it was to his best interests to look after those other people first.

This is the reason Mr. Granville Harman, of Kings County, was not reappointed librarian and also why Mr. Fulton, of the. Twentieth Ward, lost his position as doorkeeper. Personally, I think Mr.

Cole lias made a mistake in pursuing the course that he has. Tho Bepublieans of Kings County will never forgive him, and they will take advantage of tho iirst opportunity to get Hquara with him. The Bepublieans in Brooklyn did to much for their party at the last election and they now hold too important a position in the politics of tho State to be overlooked and slighted. The time, in my opinion, has gone by when Kings County can bo with safety ignored, either at conventions, or by party managers." PKEACHED TO KXIGHTS OF HO.NOlt. A Sermon by the IScv.

W. BI. Lawrence, oi' Enterprise oEnlerprise and Senate Lodges, Knights of Honor, listened to a sermon last, night at the Powers street Methodist Episcopal Church, by the Bov. W. It.

Lawrence, a member of Enterprise Lodge, on "True Knighthood." The congregation tilled every scat, including a line of chairs down the ai. les. Thi; text was I. Kings ii: The speaker said David in leaving his kingdom to hi.s wise son Solomon could give him no better advice for the duties of bis oiliee than to show himself a.m in. The chvalry of the Middle Ages cultivated what was then the conventional idea of manhood.

A knight was a soldier and a gentleman, true to himself hi.s neighbor and his Cod. The virtue. of chivalry tended to soften the barbarism of the middle ages. Magnanimity, generosity, respect for woman, tho cultivation of the intellect, and the development of the moral cliane tor were supposed to distinguish a true knigh. speaker then showed how necessary these traits of manhood were for this generation.

In our busy life there is a disposition to forget the courtesies and kindness which add so much to the pleasant side of life. The virtues of chivalry were also, the speaker said, christian graces as a perfect christian must bo a gentleman. "Jesus," said Emerson, "was the prince of gentlemen." The benevolent features of the order of Knights Honor were then dwelt upon and the sermon closed with an earnest exhortation to the knights to add to then profession the practical duties of Christianity.

Tlie Wrong Alarm Was Rung and an Amcriean District Officer Responded With Biibeock Fire Extinguisher on His Back What Happened to Him. Early yesterday morning Miss Ella Sutphin, of 1 .10 Amity street, was awakened by a suspicious noise in an adjoining room. She occupied tho back parlor on the second tloor. In the rear is an extension. Tho door between tho rooms was open and after Miss Ella had rubbed tho sleep out of her eyes she discerned the outline of a man moving about tho room.

Presently ho lighted a match and she saw that the unueleome visitor was a negro. She was much frightened by the discovery. After collecting her senses she slipped noiselessly, as she supposed, from the bed, hastened upstairs and alarmed tho other inmates of the house. Tho first stop taken was to ring an American District Telegraph alarm, whieli was in ono of tho rooms on tho second floor. Then tho undivided forces in the house, male aud female, descended to the arlor tloor; but before doing so they made certain that the intruder would bo found there by making noise enough to give him warning of their approach.

When they reached the extension they found ono of the windows open and a couplo of half burned matches on the tloor as evidence that tho young woman's sight had not been deceptive. Upon examination it was discovered that the window catch had been broken. Officer Walsh, of the Third Precinct, who was on duty iu tho vicinity, was notified and before repairing to the scene, he went to tho alarm box aud telephoned to the station house for a corps of officers to surround the block. After they arrived the search for the burglar was commenced. The windows of the houses on Clinton, Pacific and Amity streets in tho vicinity of Amity were raised, heads were poked out and the utmost excitement prevailed.

Mr. Henry Fay, who resides at Clinton street, was the Iirst to discover the man for whom; the officers wcrei searching. He observed him crawling along on the extension of He called out ami asked the man what he was doing. For the Lord, Massa, don't nothing, I am trying to get away from the police, the man replied. "All right" said Mr.

Fay, "You stay there a minute and I'll come down and let you iu." Instead of doing so, however, Mr Henry grabbed up a big earthen jar and threw it at the crouching figure below. He didn't hit hi 'mark but went so close to it that the proceeded to climb down off the porch with all possible speed and ran right into tho arms of an officer. He was in his stocking feet. A short time afterward officer Murphy found A p.iir of shoes in an ice box in an extension in the year of Clinton street. When shown to the prisoner he admitted that thoy belonged to him.

At the station house hn gave, his name as Fay Smith, aged li). He declined to give his address and would have very little to say. On searching him three pawn tickets representing clothing were found on him. Special Officer Lloyd, of the American District Telegraph Company, who answered the call sent out from the house, appeared in due time with a Babcock iiro extinguisher on his back. In tho excitement of the moment the wrong alarm had been sent out.

While he was groping about tho house in search for the tire he walked through the window that the colored man Smith had left open and fell into the yard, a distance of about thirteen or fourteen feet. He was quite seriously injured and is confined to his bed. When arraigned before Justice Massey this morning pleaded not guilty to a charge of attempted burglary. He said that he had gone into the yard to sleep. He was remanded until the lKth iust.

The English rtijriliHt in a Very liad ISiiiiiov To day. The two pugilists, Mitchell and Kilrain paid a visit to the Puirc fazi ue oilice in New York at noon to day. Mitchell was very wrath over what he declared the unfair reports given by a few of the newspapers.

He denounced Jack Dempsey as a "rat" who has been trying to gain notoriety on the strength of his (Mitchell's) name. The story that Dempsey struck him in Chicago Mitchell asserted was absolutely false. On the contrary, he said, that when he announced his intention of punching Dempsey just for fun, tho latter ran to a drawer to get a revolver. There was scarcely a humiliating name in the, vocabulary of the ring that Mitchell did not apply to Dempsey, to show his contempt for him. Mitchell also gave John L.

a terrible lacerating with the tongue. He said the "big bluffer from Boston would have one of his convenient fits of drunk and sickness on him when the time came for the fight. He called him a "loafer" and a "first class good for nothing" and said that the famous John L. couldn't get a drink in Bonton to day unless he had the money to pay for it. According to Charlie, Jack Dempsey crawled out of every proposition that he ever made leading toward the making of an engagement.

The meadow owned by the Messrs.

It was reported this morning that Mr. William A. Furey, secretary of the Kings t'otiuty Democratic General Committee, was tired of the office, and had decided to decline to be a candidate for re election. He has been ill since the last election, and certainly does not feel like wrestling with the thankless duties of an oiliee which he has filled for several years with marked ability. His friends, however, desire to re elect him, because of the covert attacks made upon him by men who are displeased ivith his management of the Campaign Committee.

Mr. Furey docs not desire to create any discord in the General Committee, and the possibilities are that to night's meeting of that body will be peaceful. Even if re elected he might feel obliged to resign on account of illness. Mr. Furey was found at his office in the Court House this afternoon, and on being asked if he had decided to retire from the secretaryship, replied: "I have not.

I am a candidate for re election and have not heard of any one else who is a candidate. Of course, if the party deems it advisable to select another man for the place I shall gracefully retire. It is a position to which thero is a great deal of work attached and the man who holds it has no easy time." "Then you expect to bo re "I seo nothing to show that there will be any change.

Mr. George Hannah, librarian of tho Long Island Historical Society, has been missing since Saturday. At on afternoon of that day, at the library, Mr. Hannah put on his hat and overcoat and went out for a walk, telling his assistant that he expected his brother to call and requesting, if he did so, that he be askeJ to wait. Mr.

Hannah haa not since been heard of. He had been suffering for tho last three or four weeks from insomnia and his wife believes that during his walk he was seized with an incontrol lable desire for sleep and is now lying at some hotel uuconscious and unkuown. Mr. Henry Hannah, of 100 Wall street, with whom the missing gentleman had an appointment to dine on the day of his disappearance, thinks that his brother, a man of full habit, was the victim of an attack of apoplexy and is now the inmate of a hospital, or at the house of ouo of his numeroUB friends in this city. In deforenee to this theory all tho hospitals here and in New York have been searched, but without success.

Private detectives have been employed. Mr. Hannah had between $40 and $f)0 iu his pocket book which he had drawn for the purpose of settling some household accounts. He was about 5 feet 0 inches iu height, weighed 17o pounds and in appearanco very much resembled the late General U. S.

Grant. Mr. Hannah was in quite comfortable circumstances, had a pleasant homo and as far as is known had no debts or business troubles. Ho was 57 years of age, of quiet, studious habits and has been librarian to the Historical Society for nearly twenty five years. Owing to his position his face was familiar to a large number of people.

There havo been reports of his having been seen since his disappearance. None of them, however, have led to any result. A meeting of the directors of tho Lone Island Historical Society was convened thia morning to take action in the matter. It was determined to wait until to morrow before doing anything. Should Mr.

Hannah not bo found before tho morning the followiug note will be given to the press with a request that it bo published: Great anxiety is felt at the strange and most unusual absence from his home of Mr. George Hannah, librarian of tho Historical Society. He has for somo weeks been in a very precarious condition of health, and apprehensions are felt lest he should have fallen unconscious while walking in the street, and lest those who have sheltered him have not found upon his person any means of identification. Mr. Hannah left the library at .1 o'clock on Saturday, intimating to his assistants that he would return immediately.

Vigorous efforts on the part of Ins friends are being made to discover his whereabouts and any information with regard to it would be gladly received at the Historical Society's building on Pierrepout street. NOT QUITE SURE That She is Little Dora Chandler's Mother. New Testimony in the Content Rctvrecn a Brooklyn Woman and a New Haven Clergyman for the Custody of a Child. Special to the Eagle.l New Haven, Conn January 14. Mrs.

Catharine A. Goldey, of Brooklyn, and the Bev. Albert A. Lathbury and wife, of this city, fought another round for tho possession of tho 7 year old child Dora Chandler in tho Probate Court this morning. Judge Roberts greeted a sea of strange faces when the proceedings began.

Among those in the. court room were stylishly dressed ladies from Brooklyn, New York and Newark, all friends and relatives of the parties interested, who had come through curiosity or in response to the summons of the sheriff to testify in the case. Mrs. Goldey was very chipper on this Spring like morning and laid aside that shrewish look which she had worn at the previous hearings. She paid the strictest attentiou to everything and assumed an air which impressed one with the belief that she found groat consolation in thinking that she would eventually bo vindicated by thoso who had questioned her motives iu fighting for the child, aud that the judgment of the court would be favorable to her suit.

Robert P. Bell, a Newark lawyer, was the first witness at to day's hearing. He testified that he had acted as Miss Etta Chandler's counsel in habeas corpus proceedings brought to recover the child Dora. The father of Miss Chandler was Major Mark B. Chandler, of Newark.

The major had brought his daughter to Mr. Bell's oliice and asked him to do what ho could to lighten her troubles. The major sdid he had been disgraced and the disgrace had almost driven him to suicide. Mrs. Lathbury, the wife of the minister in whose possession the child now is, testified that Mrs.

Goldey had hounded her and Miss Chandler for three years. Chandler hud told me, "continued the itness, "that she couldn't swear that the child Dora was hers. Her child was born iu July, 1. SHI, but after its birth it had been taken away and she had not seen it for months afterward." Mrs. Lathbury first saw tlie child at Mrs.

Goldey' home. 1 :17 Rodney utrcot, Brooklyn, in November. lSKO. Mrs. Lathbury was always willing to give up the child to its true mother if the judge thought it best and considered the mother tiie proper person to care foi it.

A KNOWLEDGE OF COLORS. Jtlis Eisnurt J. Corr B.colure.s on IScr lUfcflt Jil I TTcsuiSsSHfr. At the lust UK cling of the Polytechnic Association of the American Institute, Miss Emma J. Corr lectured on the importance of acquiring a orrect knowledge of colors and on hot own method of teaching.

She prefaced her remarks by saying that she believed that much of what is called color blindness was merely ignorance and might be prevented by suitable instruction. In her class lessons Miss Corr has each pupil supplied with a blank chart and envelopes" containing assorted colors, little disks of colored paper gummed on the back like postage stamps. A sample chart is exhibited upon the walhupon which are gummed larger disks exhibiting all tho primary colors and all the combinations that it is necessary to teach. Conducting the exercises the teacher calls for a certain combination, the class selecting the colors from their envelopes. These colors are then affixed to the charts, under the direction of tho teachers.

There is also a little box colored tablets, furnished from which the scholars select the colon called for. The colore are then shown by the teacher, who mixes a drop of paint of eaeli primary color involved upon a palette with a brush, thus giving ocular and practical demonstration of the truth sought to be impressed. Various methods will suggest themselves to teachers for extending these lessons. The only paints required to produce the different combinations arc red, blue and yellow, with black and white for shading. For a palette, a common dinner plate will answer.

The lecturer spoke extemporaneously, and with a modest, self possession quite fascinating. Great interest was excited, and the subject was debated nearly the entire evening by Messrs. Grimshaw, Van Der Wcyde, Stetson, Bedford, Roarkc and others. DEAD AT HIS OWX DOOR.

In November of the same year he received Ihe Democratic, nomination for the full term of six years and was elected over Horace Groves by a large majority. His administration of the oftice was signally aide and judicial.

The term to which he was elected expires December, jaai. Governor Hill will appoint a temporary successor and the election for a full term will occur next November. The salary of the oilice is $1 0.000 per year. Abraham Lott was one of live children and leaves a widow and. three children.

The latter arc John A. Lott, a lawyer: Mrs. Freeman Clarkson and Miss Kate Lott. Personally Mr. Lott was genial and had the faculty id making and keeping friends.

He lived well and was it delightful entertainer. He Usually spent his Summers in the White Mountains. Hi' was a member of tin: Brooklyn and of the Holland Society of New York, and was a director in the Brooklyn Safe Depisit Company, the Mechanics' Insurance Company and other financial institutions, lie was possessed of means. On Thursday lad he was in court and gcard evidence in a case pending. He did not complain of feeling ill and was in apparent fair health on Friday.

He was attache I by pains on Saturday, and at midnight his condition became Bo serious that Dr. .1. L. Zahriskic, his physician, was summoned. From that time lie gradually grew worse, passing away 1 0 o'clock on Sunday morning surrounded by his family.

At Untune that Mr. Lott was appointed fo succeed Bergen the Board of Supervisors elaimcd the power to fill the vacancy and held a caucus, at which it was aeived to put General I. S. Tallin in the place. When it came voting, several of General O'sitliu's friend Lisc to vote, and the matter was si tiled by the Governor making the appointment.

Pending the npnoinim 1 1 of Mr. Lott's successor, Judge IL nry A. Moore, of lb County Court, will exercise jurisdiction over the atc's Court, by virtue of a statute prov.ding fur the present emergency. Tin: Tin: conns. In the Surrogate's Court 'ln 'leri; .1 11 lah Voorhies, at 10 o'clock to day, ma le a formal announcement from th bench of the death of Surrogate Abraham Lott yesterday, and adjourned all pending matters uithoiit day.

The Circuit Court. Calvin Pratt sitting 311 Tart with Judge iiartlctt also muni the bench, took formal and olhYial notice of Surrogate Lott's decease. When tie court convened at 10 o'clock the only business transacted was to call the panel of jurors an. I dispose of such excuses as were presented. Meanwhile the court room tilled up will: a hu ge number of lawyers, who were in attendance to show respect to the memory of the late Surrogate.

When the routine business had been disposed uf Hon. William C. Be Witt arose and said: May it please the Court, the death of the presiding officer of so important a department of the judiciary of' this county as tie Surrogate's office seems to render it appropriate and incumbent that this Court should temporarily adjourn. Judge Lott died yesterday. For more than thirty five years he has been a leading and active member of our bar, well and familiarly known to all of us 1)3" Lis hearty and social ijualities.

his strong attachment his i.id nature, his upright and Ktraightforward life. Fur several years past he lias been Surrogate of the county. lb was by heritage a judge. His grandfather, if not the first, was among the first 'probate judges of Kings County, and the long, laborious and eminent services of his father upon the bench live in the memory of all the older members of the Kings County bar. so that for three generations the family to which he belongs lias been administering justice in our midst.

At last these services are ended. The all pervading viol nee of ih ath smote him unexpectedly on the golden morn of the beautiful Salbath, and let us hope transmuted him into its own exceeding tranquility and brightness. I move that this Court adjourn out of respect to Ids memory. General Benjamin F. Tracy If the Court please, it is with deep regret that I rise to second the motion that has been made by Brother De Witt that this Court adjourn as a mark of respect to the memory of Surrogate Lott.

of the County of Kings. Se have all known him for many years. We know the uprightness with Tvhieh he administered every duty which fell to him to perform. It is meet and fitting that this Court take notice of the death of so eminent a roan by adjourning. I second the motion to adjourn.

Judge Pratt Judge Lott wassuch a well known character in Brooklyn that it would lie idle for the Court to say anything except to express iu cordial concurrence in the remarks that have been made by the gentlemen who made the motion. The usual terms that are used to describe eminent members of the bar upon such iv casious (that ho was a laborious, painstaking and learned lawyer, a model citizen, an upright, fearless public officer) would express to his friends but a tithe of his merits. That his course while he has been Surrogate lias been marked with great devotion to duty; that his decisions have been exceptionally learned and accurate, are facts that the Appellate Courts cannot help recognizing. But to his friends I feel justified in saying that his soeial qualities were so pre eminent that they will always be remembered with great affection and delight. The Court will enter this motion upon the minutes and take an adjournment until to morrow morning.

In the City Court, Part Judge Van sitting, aud Chief Judge Clement beside him 011 the bench, similar action was taken. When the court had convened and the opening business had been disposed of ex Surrogate Abram H. Dailey arose and said: "May it please the Court, I move that this court adjourn out of respect to the memory of the Hon. Abraham Lott. the late Surrogate of this county, whose death, which occurred yesterday, it is my sad duty to announce.

His father was a distinguished jurist, and the son was following wot thily in his father's footsteps when death overtook him. I had known Judge Lott for many years and have always held his abilities and character in high esteem. Ho performed the duties of his position with rare fidelity and ability and his death is a serious loss to the bench and bar of this count I can conceive of no more fitting way in which to honor his memory at this time than by adjourning the court." Ex Judge Samuel.D. Morris I. have known the deceased over thirty fire years in a business way awl socially.

I have always found him a genial, kind, just, conscientious and upright lawyer, yet Mr. Sfran.ihan, Who Will Carry Iho Thirty six Harrison and Morton Votes to Washington, Considers the Appointment a Tribute to His Youth. Special to the Eagle. Alb as N. January 1 4.

Tho thirtv sb: gentlemen forming the Electoral College of the Mate of New York met in the Senate Chamber at noon to day, and did their share toward making Benjamin Harrison rrosidcutand Levi r. Morton Vice President of the United States. There were no vacancies in the number. James W. Birkett, of the Kings County members, braved his illness and came up on the night train, under escort of Theodore B.

Willis, chairman of the Republican Campaign Committee; B. T. Lynch, Hugo Hirsch, Michael Daily, Major George II. Kenneth aud Granville W. Harnian.

Tho Hon. James S. T. Stranahan, elector at large; Gustav A. Jahn, Chester D.

Burrows, and Nelson J. Gates, the other Kings County men, came up on the Sunday special. Mr. Gates was indignant over a published report of his ineligibility because he belonged to the Board of Education and would not resign. "It is an unwarranted slur upon ho said.

The thing had never been mentioned to me, and is entirely errorneous. Members of the Bro iklyn Board of Education arc not State officials." Tho electors held a caucus at the Delevan at 1 0 o'clock, and on motion of Mr. Stranahan Mr. William II. Seward was made the nominee for chairman.

Mr. Stranahan was then made nominee for messenger to convey the return to Washington, "As a tribute," lie said afterward "to my youth." Lispenard Stewart and Frank R. Withcrbee were picked out to be secretaries. Then the delegates climbed the hill to the Capitol. Mr.

Birkett went up in a hack with two Kings Comity liepub licans to steady him. Albany ladies who were lucky enough to know Edward A. Durant, the Albany elector, had scats on the floor of the Senate Chamber, and made tho scene pleasant. Assemblyman Prank Sperry and Mrs. Sperry, and Senator Hawkins, of.

Suffolk, were among the privileged persons oil the tloor. The Democratic Secretary of State and his assistant, Diedrieh Willers, had the melancholy task of setting the electoral machine in motion on their hands. Mr. Cook called tho electors to order, and the Bov. Max C.

Holmes offered a prayer that Mr. Harrison and his colleagues might have luck on their side the next four years. Then the roll was called. These were the thirty six wdio responded: William H. Seward, James S.

T. Stranahan, Bead Benedict, Gustav A. Jahn, Nelson J. Gates, James W. Birkett, Chester D.

Burrows, Andrew B. Rogers, Lispenard Stewart, William II. Townley, Edwin A. Me. Ylpin, Brayton Ives, Robert A.

Greaceu, William Braakfield, David P. Porter, John Thomas Stearns. William P. Richardson, John T. Winslow, Thomas Cornell, James A.

Borden, Edward A. Durant, Jr. Edward Ellis, Frank S. Withcrbee, William L. Braetor, John S.

Kosler, Edward A. Bremen, George N. Crouse, William E. Johnson, Clinton D. MaeDougall, Albert M.

Patterson, Everett Brown, Henry Holing, Augustus Frank, Philip Becker, Benjamin Flagler, Asher W. Miner. When this was over Assistant Secretary Willers went down on the tloor and held a Bible, upon which the electors, in blocks of six, placed their thumbs and swore they had not bought their elections. Each elector wore a beautiful bow built of small star spangled banners, with the star spangles plump in tho middle of the knot, just to show that they were Republicans who had whipped the red bandana. When all the gentlemen had attested to their virtue Mr.

Stranahan, who sat beside Mr. Seward in the onyx chamber, arose and nominated him for chairman. Read Benedict seconded tho motion and Mr. Seward was duly chosen. He made a small speech, saying: I beg to thank you most sincerely for the great honor which you confer in calling me to presido over the deliberations of this Electoral College of 1 HUH.

We have assembled to day to carry out in due form the decision of the majority of voters of the great State of New York as expressed by them at the last general election. When we shall have performed that great duty, as required by law, tne Electoral College of 1SHH will have finished its work and will then pass into history. Its act, however, will long outlive the organization, placing at the head of the government of our great nation two eminent American citizens, who for the next four years shall lawfully till the olliees of President and Vice President of the United States. Then Mr. Stranahan and Brayton Ives escorted Mr.

Seward to the chair. The caucus nominees for secretaries were selected. Mr. Flagler moved tho appointment of a committee of three to choose messengers. It carried and Nelson J.

Gates, Benjamin Flagler aud John Thomas Stearns were appointed 011 the committee. Balloting for President was next in order. Senate Page Boyce gave each elector a ticket upon which was the engraved inscription: "For President of the United States, Benjamin Harrison, of tho State of Indiana." A wicker basket on the stenographers table acted as a ballot box. Mr. Stewart put his ticket in first, rind Mr.

Stranahan followed. After the electors at large, the rest voted in Congressional district order. The engraved cards were pretty aud relleete 1 credit on the Democratic taste of Secretary of State Cook, who got them up. Mr. Birkett was almost to ill to move, but he went with a tardy tread unaided across Ihe twenty feet between his seat and the wicker basket.

He sat in Jacob Worth's chair, Mr. Gates in Senator O'Connor's, Mr. Jahn in Senator l'tetve's and Mr. Burrow's overlowed into the New York chair of Senator Murphy. Read Benedict had Senator Hawkins' pew.

When Benjamin Harrison had been duly proclaimed the choice of the thirty six for President of the United States there was a brisk round of applause. Before this occurred the Secretary of State and Mr. Willers went down stairs to mitigate their sufferings and left soni clerks to bear the pain. The tellers wauied to give the tickets hack to tlie elect. irs as relics, but (he chair sai they must go to the Secretary of State for evidence.

Some hid already been captured and Teller rouse asked their possessors to please send them back. One el. etor liad gone o.T with his. When he came back Morion wr.i elected in the same Mr from tie Messengers' Committee rentes S. T.

Stran and John S. Koster ngers. the one to Washington and the port ,1 in i other to Xorthcrn District Court. Of Mr. Stranahan he said: 1 beg leave to submit, and do it with pleasure, tho distinguished and honored name of James S.

T. Stniiiahan, the elector at large of the State and a resident of Kings County and the City of Brooklyn. He is known as a veteran lionublican, honored and distinguished iu the City of Brooklyn a r.o other man is. I am sure iu (his matter tin's College will honor itself more in th selection of Mr. Stranahan as its messenger bearer to Washington than it wilt honor him.

The choice was made and a recc.s was taken to sign the returns. Then the College reassembled for a moment to adjourn in due form. DIED 01 HEART DISEASE, The Superior of tlie Convent of the Sisters of St. ftominic. About I o'clock thi morning at the Convent of the Sisters of St.

A Labor rtitii Protesting' Visror oiisly Asrninst it. The Advance Association, a local labor organization affiliated with the Knights of Labor, has adopted the following: In the frequent disputes between employers and employes, and. particularly, where no injury to person in properly is intended, it has become a matter of public comment that the police authorities use every means within their power to defeat the just demand. of honest and unprotected toilers. Uniformed policemen have been publicly noticed on beer wagons, acting in the capacity of guides to strange drivers, representing a powerful aud foreign combination in the beer and liquor traffic, therein giving unnecessary aid in the di ti ibut'ou of that which breeds misery and crime.

We, the r.r of the Advance Association, solemnly plot against the action of the police authorities of ihe City of Brooklyn in allowing the member of the force to be changed into portable ornaments for the adornment of beer brewers' wagons for the exclusive benefit of foreign corporations, combinations and trusts.
