The number of boys that slept witli their beets en and one eye open was very large and tliey did net noed te be called te get up. As early as 4 o'clock boys, and even men, began te gather out about tbe station and tliey continued te arrive thore until tlie circus had been removed te tlie let in McGranu's park. Several thousand of them must have been around the place- for hours and the school books that knew many yester day wero strangers te them te-day. Three trains of cars brought the circus te Lauc&s ter from Reading, and they had all arrived by 7 o'clock. All the sidings in and around the station were tilled with cars of every description. In a short time part of tbe large force of men wereat work with teams of all descriptions unloading the cars and taking the contents te the park. The work has been gotten down te such a system by shows of this size that everythlng works smoothly. Fer several hours the ditferent streets leading te tbe park wcre filled with red w agens, cages, chariots, Ac, and every thing was lovely. Once in a whlle the small boy would be set wild by the appearance of a tall man, fut boy or some ether freak and when Captain Bergardus, with a let of Indians, cowboys and ethers walked out James street an army of boys followed him te the park. It was several hours before tlie big show had all been taken from the cars. AT THK OltOUNP. Fer several hours this morning Walnut street and tlie New Helland turnpike were crowded with poeplo. It was almost im possible for pedestrians te get by, as baby carriages lined tlie sidewulks, and when a woman is out te soe a circus slie won't move a wheel. Ttiese poeplo had an opportunity or seeing tlie greater part of the show taken te the . let. Everybody was busy at the park seen efinr ilm itlimv'M nrrlval.

BANKER 8ISTAKK IX JAIL. The Head or Anether Alleged "Kiting" Syndicate Arrested and Held Un der $T0,OOO Ball. W. IL M. Slttare, tbe bead of the bank ing firm of Geerge K. SUtare'a Bena, was locked up in Ludlow streetjall, New Yerk, en Tuesday, en an order of arrest granted by Judge Lawrence, of the supreme court, In a civil action brought by Richard Heck echcr, of Philadelphia. Mr. Ueckscher's claim ia for 1112,000, which amount he saya was represented by bends and ether securities placed in the band of Geerge K.Slstare'B Sens, and which, It Is alleged, cannot be found new. Mr. Heckscher also asserts that ha has net been able te get any accounting for them. The order of arrest was signed en May 7 by Judge Lawrence, but it was net exe cuted until Monday aftorneou, for the reason that Mr. Heckscher and Deputy Sheriff Fergusen, who had the order te execute, could net find their man. Mr. Hislare did net leave the city, but he ap parently took pains te keep away from his usual haunts. The deputy sheriff located him en Monday at the New Yerk club, and when Mr. Slstare was leaving the building 2 o'clock he was taken Inte cus tody. He was net locked up then, how ever, and was able te keep hi arreat a secret His bail was fixed by Judge Lawrence at 175,000, and, in charge of the deputy sheriff, he started out te leek for bonds men, passing the night In a futile search. Tuesday,after a further unsuccessful search from morning until well en In the after noon, he gave up for the day the task of getting a bondsman, and was taken te Lud low streetjall, a prisoner for the first time in bis life. Slstare's only partner In New erkwas Hareld Clements, who also imploaded as a party defendant In Mr. Heckscher'a suit; but last Saturday he left the city for Con necticut, aud up te Monday had net re turned. Tbe transactions en which Mr. Heck scher bases his claim aud the illegal con version of the bends and securities in which the order of arrest Was granted are alleged te have taken place in the Xew Yerk office, of which Mr. Slstare and Mr. Clements had nole charge, and It is stated that the late Mr. Hllger, In the Philadel phia office, had nothing te de with the matter. II. 8. Bennett, however, the lawyer for Mr. Slstare, says that tile whele matter arises from the complications due te the conditions of all airs In the Philadel phia branch ofllce. The counsel for Mr. Heckscher declined te talk about the case when their attention was called te Mr. llennetl's statements. As the basis for the action grew out of the complications in tlie Philadelphia olllce of the Arm, they said that they would prefer te wait until the case came into court before making any statement. Mr. Heckscher has another suit against the Arm for f 120,000, In which he secured an attachment a few days age against the property of the Arm. The tlnu of O. K. Slstare's Sens failed en April 7, the announcement te the Stock Exchange being made in n letter te the president of the Stock Exchange, attribu ting an tueir iroueies 10 mu law jir. mi ger, their partner in etiarge ei tne runa runa aelphia branch concerns. Douglas Hilger was the Philadelphia nartner. and as he had died very Bhertly preceding the failure, the placing of the blame upon him created much unfavorable criticism. Ever since the failure thore have been all sorts or rumors about the ilrm. It was generally considered in Wail street that the placing or all the blame for the failure upon a dead man was manifestly unjust. Air. Hllger had a daughter by bis flrst wife, and his second wife survived him. The widow and daughter were Innocent parties and the cencensus or opinion was that even were it true that Hllger had wrecked the Arm, It was net a manly thing te blacken his memery and bring additional sorrows te the two persons se closely con nected with him. Many persons, howevor, did net bolieve that the failure was due te Hilger. It Is openly chorged by ene man that Mr. Hllger has been made tlie scapegeat ier mismanagement en the part of the members of the firm in New Yerk, who, in their deslre te keep tbe real condition of affairs from being known, have covered up defalcations by various agents who have been In tneir employ, running uruueu ofllres in New Yerk and ether cltles. They have carried en a system el " kit ing" credits between their New Yerk aud Philadelphia houses, and have gene into and indorsed schemes which ordinary business sagacity ought te have made them keep away from. This man's name Is Jehn M. Conway, who had been many Sears the head bookkeeper of Geerge K. Istare's Sens, and as such claims te have an intimate knowledge of their affairs. He lea the Arm's employ last winter, and is new in New Orleans. " These people," says Mr. Conway, " are trying te hide behind the corpse et peer Hllger, who lies cold and unable te speak for lil nisei fj and, as be was my friend in life, I will net permit his memery te be dishonored te save tlie Arm from the re sponsibility incurred by their mismanage ment." Cannet Socure nail. Nkw Yeiik, May 14. Slstare, the banker who was arrested en Meuday last for fail ing te account for 8112,000 worth or securi ties placed with bis Arm by Richard Heck scher, of Philadelphia, passed last night iu confinement at Ludlow street Jail. Se far he his net been able te obtain bail, which has been Axed at 75,000. ElUubothtewn Ketes. Ei.iAiiirriiTOWN, May 14.

A lady entered a Duke street car this morning leading a bright five-year-old specimen or young America, who climbed upon tbe seat besideher and settled himself with both his little legs stretched out before him and the feet Just projecting ever tiie edge of the scat. Tbe tips of bis tees were sadly worn, and allttla glimpse of stocking showed through each. The lady glanced down at her lively cbnrge and exclaimed. with tlie memnea surprise or a careful mether: "Why, my son, your tees are actually cemiug through your shoes 1 Yeu must tell papa te buy you a new pair right away." "Ohi no, mother." he said, quickly, " 'cause if be buys shoes maybe be won't get circus ticKets." And the whole car smiled at the llttje shoe destroyer. Prosecution Wlthdrawu.

She lay en her broadsl'de a full minute, and Cap tain Ritchie ordered all hands en deck and the crew te stand by the beats. Tbe vessel, however, seen settled back Inte clear water uninjured. Had the vessel been running at anything approximating her usual speed nothing could have saved her from complete wreck and great less of life. m ONE MORE IN THK NECK.
