GENERAL SP0ET1XG KEWS OP THE DAI
-Af There is not only considerable pleasure to
' "5be derived, but much information to be
gained from a conversation with the veteran
of baseball, Mr. Harry "WriElit. Few men
1 in the country hare had the amount of
practical experience in the national game
that the genial manager of the Phillies has
1 had, and very few, indeed, are so well in-
l -formed regarding it and its historical and
scientific features. Last evening Mr. Wright
', expressed himself at length to the writer
Cr - on many interesting baseball topics: He said:
j"CeiUinly I anticipate some kind of change
in, the classification rule before next 6eason
i commences, but I don't at all expect that it
will be abolished. There are faults connected
'with it, both as regards high salaries and low
ones. What I mean is that some players are
classed higher than they ought to be, and some
are classed lower than they should be. But we
must remember that the rule as a sjstcm is an
experiment, and experience will help us to get
it Into a thorough going and satisfactory order.
The Idea was suggested by Cleveland a long
time ago, and had it been adopted then we
would have a pood system in operation now.
Ve cannot get along without a system founded
on a principle that will fairly limit salaries. A
system of this kind is just as beneficial to
wealthy clubs as to poor ones.
A VERT POTENT TLEA.
"The more evenly an organization of clubs is
balanced the better it is for alL If tbe poor
clubs are weak everything will be onesided,
and people won't patronize the games. I re
member when the Bostons were carrying ev
erything before them for several seasons that
victory became so monotonous that patrons of
tbe game became tired of it and stayed away.
It was simply a question of how many runs will
Boston finish ahead tolay? The general result
was a foregone conclusion. The principle of
classification helps poor clubs to get as good
players as wealthy clubs.
"I am not sure as to what the American As
sociation will do in the matter. It is waitingto
see how the plan works with us, but I don't
think there is stability enough in the Associa
tion to. formulate any new plans. There
t, , arwsys considerable distrust in
at ' organization, as one club is
variably suoecting another making a move
join the League. This proves that the Asso
ciation members themselves look to the League
as a superior organization. However, there is
iilenty ot room in the country for both, and If
Irooklyn were to take Washington's place in
the Leajruq there is no reason why Washington
should not liecome an Association citv. There
are plenty second-class cities that conld be se-
cured whicti would still keep tbe Association
head ofyin the minor leagues."
A league teams sized up.
Miwright expressed his opinion about the
various League teams. He said : "Cleveland
has. a fini club, and no mistake. Tbe players
arc; all so evenly balanced that they put up an
everyday game of a good order. Certainly it is
a new team, but each player has had expe
rience enough to know his position. The in
field is not made un ot kids by any means, and
tbaoutfield is good. The batteries are also
. eiy strong; and, as I have said, the players are
so equal that they play a very steady game.
Kew Yore is a treat team, but has been both
ered with its pitchers. The Giants are a dan
gerous lot, indeed. But Chicago is getting
into shape, and when it is all right, we must
look out."
The manager had heard nothing definite
about the proposed Morrill-Andrews deal, and
did not venture any opinion. It is likely, how
ever, that Pete Wood will not be long w'lth the
Phillies, and Mr. Wright will part with him
very reluctantly, if he is to be relea-ed. Satur
day's came seems to have caused Mr. Wright's
estimation nf Wood to fall a little. The
manager said:
"Wood is just the Kind of young man that
the rlnb wants. He is a gentleman, and his
sobriety and good moral conduct arc noteworthy
But these qualities don't win games. He was
most highly recommended to us. and we were
given to understand that he would equal any
of our old men. I'm sorry that this prediction
has not come true. When e have tried him
i he has fallen short of expectations to a very
great extent."
THE DEACON' DEPARTS.
Us May Soe tbe I'ittxbarg Ball Clnb for
Conspiracy.
"Deacon" White has returned home and his
signing is just, as likely now as it ever was.
He emphatically holds out for half of his pur
chase money. He cannot get it and he, there
fore, refuses to sign with Pittsburg. While
here be put his case in a nutshell by saying
that he either wanted to play or have his re
lease. The fact is, however, as stated previ
ously in thee columns the "Deacon" does not
want to play here. He came here to try and
obtain his release so that he could play in
Buffalo.
It is probable that he will now ask his law
vet's advice as to what he sbould do next. The
Deacon, when in this city, intimated that there
was such a thing as making people pay for
conspiring to deprive another man of his
means of livelihood. He claims that the Pitts
burg club and the League are doing this, and
that the laws of the country are opposed to
such like action.
To-Day's Ilome Grar.
The local team and the Phillies will meet in
the arena again this afternoon at Recreation
Park. Tbe battery of the visitors will be either
Bufflncton or Qlea6on and Clements. Galvin
and Miller will look after the home team.
Garfield may arrive to-day. and Manager
,rr!gbt hopes that he will face the Phillies on
Tuesday.

WILL PLAY EVERT DAY.
Sunday Ball to be Given by the Wheeling
Clnb Hereafter.
tSrECial. TELEGRAM TO THE DISFATCH.l
Wnr.Ei.iso, June 38. Wheeling has at last
decided to play Sunday ball. The lovers ot the
game in this city are mostly, working people,
and they demand of tbe management a change,
to have, a half day's rest and recreation with
out losing their day's work, which is not only a
loss of time but money as well. Tbe team tbus
far has won four and lost four games on tbeir
trip. They play three with Mansfield, com
mencing to-day, where they expect to win two
of tbe three games,
President Powell has received a telegram
from the Cincinnati club, offering Kennedy's
release. He will not part with Kennedy just
yet. Median, tho new pitcher, will likely re
port for duty to-morrow. He Is said to be a
good man. and with Sunday games baseball In
tho Nail Citv will doubtless boom to the de
light of the Boaid of Directors, who have gono
pretty deep in their pockets to keep up the
game in this city.
THEY'RE NOT BLUFFERS.
Tho Scotts' Manager Pats Up tbe Cash to
Piny McKeesport.
The McKeesport Baseball Club will now have
to do something more than talk to get even
with the Scotts. of this city. Last evening Mr.
J. W. Scott, manager of the Scotts, called at
this office and replied' to tbe charges of the Mc
Keesport club against his team. He said:
"I want it distinctly understood that we are
no bluffers, but we mean business everytime.
The reason we did not arrance to go to Mc
Keesport on the Fourth was because they
would uot give us two dates on that day, and
we got two dates atanotherplace. Now, about
tbe blowing. I'll test McKeesport by chal
lenging them to play us at Recreation Park on
J uly 9, 10 and 11 f or $100 a side. I now leave a
check for that amount with The Dispatch,
and if tbe McKeesporters will meet me at The
Dispatch office on Tuesday night at 8 o'clock
we'll get down to business."

BLOOD IN HIS EYE.
Pierre Arrives In tbe City nnd Makes a
Statement.
Antonio Pierre, the Greek athlete, arrived
in the city yesterday and called at this office
last evening. Tbe big Greek bad blood in his
eye, and made the following statement in a
very emphatic manner:
"I seo that Duncan Ross has my name an
nounced among the entries for the wrestling
tournament which takes place at Recreation
Park on the Fourth. Now, I want to say that
I authorized nobody to put my name
on that bill, but I have come here to make a
match to wrestle Ross In any style he likes.
I w ou't wrestle him on Thursday, but I want to
meet him for a stake. I will force him to
wrestle me or be must shut up."
Regarding the great tournament and
mounted broad-sword combat, the following
letter wasreceived at this office from Boston
yesterday:
To the Sporting Editor orThe Dispatch:
I met Duncan C Koss In a mounted sword com
bat tn Montreal, Canada, recently and he only de
feated me by a trick, and. as 1 understand, be Is
In the 6word combat at 1'ltUhurg, Pa.. July 4. I
wish It understood that 1 will be tbere to meet
him, and If he can again defeat me 1 will be satis
fied. PETE LEltOTU,
Chasseur de frlque.
A movement is on foot to havo a tug-of-war
Scotch against Americans at the tournament.
Strong and thoroughbred Scotchmen are
needed to complete a team.
STOPPED THE KNOCK-OUT.
Pnt KMcn Not Allowed to Face SomeBlow
hnrds. DutUTn. Mint., Jnne 30. Pat Killcn gave
an exhibition Inst night to a packed bouse.
Before the r-parring commenced, a message
from the California Athletic Club, of San Fran
cisco, was read, forbidding Killen to engage In
any knock-cut contests. If he did, they will
consider his engagement to flcht McAulilTe as
off. This becoming known, a lot of fighters.
Pat Sbechy, Conley and Paddy McDonald
among them, wanted to stand before Killen.
This, of course, was impossible, and for a time
a general riot seemed inevitable. Manager
Gooding then offered to put up $500 in the
hands of any responsible person that Killen
conld whip any of the gang when his McAuliff e
fight was over.
Another account says Sheeby offered 1500 to
stand up against Killen, but his offer was re
fused, to the disgust of the audience, who
hissed him roundly.
Will Fight tbe Winner.
CrriCAGo, June SO. Peter Jackson, the Aus
tralian pugilist, is here now and is anxious to
make a inatch with tbe winner of the Sullivan
Kilrain fight. He says he can thrash either of
tlicm and would only be too happy to demon
strate his ability to do so. He refrains from
expresing any opinion as to the relative merits
of Sullivan and Kilrain. The colored pugilist
sajs he doesn't think he will be able to cet a
fight out of Sullivan, because of tbe tatter's
expressed determination not to go against a
negro, but hopes to have a go at Kilrain some
time. A Good Race Promised.
The Butchers and Merchants' 2:10 pacing
race, which takes place at Exposition Park on
Thursday afternoon, promises to be an inter
esting event. The entries will close to-morrow
at 12 o'clock r. v. Following are the entries
up to date:
George W. Evans' Harris, William Mclntyre's
Jessie M. J. B. Heldeger's John, William Artz
berger's Prince A, Jos. Tipton's Handy Andy,

Corcoran 'Zriurns.
Billy Corcoran, the local pugilist, arrived
bom last evening from Dayton, O., where he
easily defeated Joe McCarthy, another local
man, in a fight to a finish a few nights ago.
McCarthy m knocked out in the sixth round,
after fighti.ii: gamely. Corcoran was seconded
byBIison Jack, and gives promise of being
quite a handy fellow in tbe ring.
A GAME FIGHT.
Jimmy Lynch Dclcaia Tommy Danforth In
a Desperate Contest.
,-SrXCIAI.TXLXOKAU TO THE DtSrATCH.1
New York. June SO, Tbe fight between the
light weights. Tommy Danforth and, Jimmy
Lynch, which took place on Staten Island early
this morning was the gam est battle that has
taken place in this vicinity between men of
their size since Havelin and Farrel met and
fought 49 rounds. Tbe fight was for a purse of
$250. It was Lynch's first skin glove light, but
he has a good record as an amateur. He is 21
years old, 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighed 121
pounds. Danforth had tbe advantage of ex
perience and age. He is SO yers old, S feet 4
Inches tall and weighed 121 pounds. He is a
veteran in the ring and has met the best at bis
weight. He foucbtlke Weir to a draw. He
fought Tommy Warren, the California Athletic
Club's favorite, twice, each winning a match.
Lynch began the fight a second after time was
called with a right hand swing on Danforth's
cheek. Danforth dodged back and slipped. He
fell on his hands and knees, but was
up in a moment, and planted a hot
one on Lynch's jaw. Lynch smiled and
got in two good ones In return. In the
nineteenth round both showed punishment.
At the close of the round Lynch got In a good
upper cnt on Danforth's damaced eye. Dan
forth returned It with a terrific blow on
Lynch's Jaw bone, knocking it all side
way. When time was called it was
discovered that the blow had broken
Lynch's jaw. Lynch was plucky, and
fought on. The twentieth was hot. Lynch up
per cut Danforth twice, and onco caught him
in the stomach. Danforth was weak, but he
got in several hot ones on Lynch's broken jaw.
When time was called both were blowing
hard. The twenty-first was hotter still. Finally,
in the twenty-second, Danforth got in a right
hand upper-cut on Lynch's jaw, and he went
down on his bands and knees. It was partly
due to the slippery floor and partly to the force
ot the blow. Ashe was getting up, Danforth
deliberately struck him three hard blows.
There were wild howls of "Foul I foull" from
Lynch's friends. Lynch got up in a moment
and went to his corner.
Referee Donohue allowed the claim of foul
and awarded the fight to Lynch. Danforth
staggered across tbe rinz and the fighters
grasped each other's hands as cordially as
though nothing had happened. They still
smiled. Lynch with difficulty, for be couldn't
close his mouth. Ho went around thouch and
took up a collection for the man he had
whipped. Old sporting men present declared
that they had never seen such a plucky fight,
and they predicted that Lynch would be a
world-beater with a little more experience in
the ring.

Conspire to Slake Trouble for the Indian
Commissioners.
Bissiabck, June 30. Mrs. C. "Wilder, a
widow, whose home is at Newark, N. J.,
has been at Standing Hock Agency for
some time, and has been much fascinated
by Sitting Bull. It is contrary to regula
tions for any Indians to leave tbe reserva
tion without leave from the agent, but Mrs.
"Wilder and the old chief arranged for a
trip to Rosebud Agency.
Being unable to leave without permis
sion, Mrs. Wilder undertook to get leave of
Agent McLaughlin, but -was refused.
Straightway Mrs. "Wilder became enraged,
threatened to secure the, agent's removal,
and used the most abusive language in ad
dressing him, continuing her threats and
abuses until ordered by tbe agent to leave
the reservation. His action is said to be
correct, because of Sitting Bull's disturbing
influence in case he visited the lower
agency.

rSnCIAL TELEGRAM TO TIIE DISFATCO.1
New York. Juno 30. The first of the
men Irom this part of the country who are
going down -to Louisiana to see the Sulli-van-Kilrain
fight left, to-night on the 8:15
train on the "West Shore road. They will
reach Bochester early to-morrow morning,
and wait there until Sullivan arrives from
Belfast. That may be to-morrow afternoon
or evening, cr perhaps Tuesday. There
will be a special train then made up at
Bochester to take the party South. The
most important part of the special will be the
baggage car in which Sullivan will be kept
under training by Muldoon until the journey
is over. . .
The men who left New York to-night are all
believers in Sullivan. There were James Far
rell, Joe Coburn, JlmWakely, Charley John
son, Phil Lynch, Leonard Tracey, John Bohan
on.V. V. Molloy, Jack Cusack. Tom Farrel,
Dan Murphy, of Boston; Jim Fowler,
Tom McJIannes, Sid Bent, of Boston; T.
A. Bingham. Frank Moran, of Bridgeport, and
Barney Maguire. When they arrived at the
ferry at the foot of West Forty-second street
they found a horde of small boys from the
tenements of that region who were delighted to
see friends of Sullivan. The small boys looked
at tbe sportinc men in awe for a moment, and
then, as they hurried into the ferry house, the
youngsters .
CHEERED FOE JOHN Ij.
It seemed as it all the other passengers over
at the Weehawken station who were going out
on the 805 train knew that the Sullivan party
was to be aboard, and they took great interest
in the group of sporting gentlemen.
Sullivan stock was high all over town to-day,
for tbere was a general growth of the idea
that Muldoon had got the big tighter into first
rate shape. Some men are prophesying, bow
ever, thatthe change of climate will hurt Sul
livan more than Kilrain. for the difference be
tween the clear air of Belfast and the air of
New Orleans will be greater than the differ
ence between Baltimore and New Orleans.
Aspecial from New Orleans says: New Or
leans Is wildly excited over the coming Kilrain
Snlllvan figbt, and It Is tho only subject of dis
cussion here. Frank Stevenson, who is now
backing Kilrain, and who was until recently an
ardent supporter of Sullivan, explains
why he deserted tbe champion. "I bet
on him," he said, "until after the Mitchell
fiasco. I was certain that Sullivan would win,
as I know that be worked hard for It. and that
he did not drink a drop in England. Snllivan's
special qualifications are for a fight un
der the Marquis of Queensberry rules.
HeJs the greatest Marquis of Queensberry
tighter the world has ever seen. No man
living can beat him in a four-round glove fight.
But in battles to a finish, where generalship
and staying powers are needed, Sullivan is not
near as great as Kilrain. I have watched Kil
rain, and see that be is tbe
GREATEST OP KINO TACTICIANS.
"He does not keep his head still, to be hit at,
like Sullivan does. He has a terrifio right and
a wonderful left, and is as skillful in getting
away from punishment as in diving it. He
fights as carefully as skillful players play
euchre, keeping count of his points and
making each punch count a point. After
his fight with Smith his abilities became
known, and since then his reputation has been
steadily going. What fits him especially for a
ring fighter is his wonderful endurance. In
his figbt with Smith he did not even wet his
lips during the hour he was in the ring."
J. W. Barnett, who left John u Sullivan
Wednesday evening, at bis training quarters in
Belfast, N. Y., in an interview said: 'Sullivan
never looked better, I knew him when he
fought Ryan, and I tell you frankly he is in
better shape at present than ever in his
life. As far as I can see there Is not a bit ot
superfluous flesh on him. and the story that he
is flabby looking about the muscles is all bosh.
His wind Is excellent, and his legs are as solid
and as strong, almost, as bars of steel. Jnst
before I left he skipped tbe rope S00 times with
out a break, and a man must have pretty good
legs and mighty good wind to do that."
A train will leave the city at about midnight
with men aboard to put things in order at tbe
grounds. The Western Union will send out its
linemen at the same time with the ring makers,
and will have fonr lines from the ground to
New Orleans by daylight. It will have its four
fastest operators stationed at them, so that tbe
news can be sent simultaneously over the whole
country. The special ring train will leave the
city by 4 o'clock, and its patrons will be ail
seated first.

TERI LARGE BDARDS.
Some 100 Feet Long and G Feet Wide With
out a Knot.
Detroit News.l
A lumber pile made of boards each 100
feet long and 6 feet in width would be an
unprecedented sight in the ast,butagentle
man recently returned from a visit to the
coast of the North Pacific ocean says that
piles of lumber such as that are common at
the mills on Fuget Sound. ''Boards 100
feet long and 6 feet wide, without a knot
in th em," he said, "are common cuts from
the gigantic fir trees of the Puget Sonnd
forests. These trees grow to the enormous
height -of 250 feet, and the forests are so
vast that, although the saw mills have been
ripping 600,000,000 feet of lumber out ot
them every year for ten years the spaces
made by these tremendous inroads seem no
more than garden patches.
Sir. nioine Enally Suited.
Bockland (Me.) Courier-Gazette.:
A Portland hotel clerk says that Mr.,
Blaine is easy to suit. "He will come in
and register and ask for a room if he is
alone. We know he wants the best room in
the honse, and he usually gets it, invariably
on the first Boor front. He is very easy' to
suit and never grumbles." Strange man,
that Blame. Always insists upon having
the best that there is and never grumbles
when he gets it I
FOR CRONIES MURDER.
The Trial of the Suspected Assassin Will
Not Take Place Until Aacnst A
Mystrrlons Suicide Thought
to be Cooney, tho
Fox.
Chicago, June 30. State's Attorney
Iiongenecker said to-day: '1 doubt if
everything will be in readiness for the
Cronin trial before August, and the court
takes its vacation during that month, but
tbe vacation might be waived in order to
try this case. At present I cannot state
with any greater definiteness when the trial
will be held. All of the indicted men will
be tried together, of, that I am confident,
notwithstanding that a fight will undoubt
edly be made by the accused for a separate
trial."
There was a rumor to-day that Kunze, the
German suspect, was one of the mysterious
witnesses whom the authorities smuggled
into the grand jury rooau without their
identity becoming known. The theory is
that Kunze has long been in custody, and
will be suddenly produced at the trial as a
witness for tbe State. Yery little credence
,1s given the report.
Michael Conley, a rolling mill employe,
who was arrested: last night for being drunk
and disorderly, is being examined by the
police as a pobsible Cronin murderer. " Con
ley cannot account satisfactorily for his
whereabouts at the time of the tragedy,
but otherwise nothing suspicions was learned
by pumping him.
A special to Chicago from "Wichita says:
Thursday evening two men passed through
Wichita on their way to the west, stopping off
here one train. When ber the two men passed
their time inquiring for one J. W. Harwood,
whom they seemed to expect to find at one of
the hotels. Thev boarded an evening train,and
just before arriving in Arkansas City one of
them plunged a knife into his throat and
cut a gash from ear to ear. He was
taken to an uptown hotel, and In the
meantime tbe second man uisappeared
entirely. Tbe man who attempted suicide
first said that his name was Thompsonand that
he as ex-postmaster of West Chicago. This
morning, while in a state of delirium, the man
talked continually ot Cronin's murder and fre
quently mentioned the names of Burke, Wood
ruff and Norton. He seemed to be well
acquainted with the incidents of the Cronin
mystery, and about noon, during a lucid mo
ment, he said thatNorton was the man who was
with him when ho attempted suicide, though
he denied all knowledge of the Cronin affair.
The authorities here and in Arkansas City
believe him to be Cooney, the "Fox." He was
asked this afternoon if he knew Burke and
Sullivan, and he admitted that he had seen
them both. His wounds are deep,, and al
though tbere is a possibility of his recovery, it
is not likely that he will see Monday morning.
He says that before he dies he bas a statement
to make, but all efforts to get him to talk this
afternoon failed.
Another special to Chicago from Arkan
sas City says the man at Wichita is Cooney,
bnt a resident ot that city.

Chicago, Jnlyl.-Atmidnightthe"Wabash
Bailway and all the property belonging to it
were turned over by Receiver McNulta to
the purchasing committee, and the opera
tion of the road by the management of the
"Wabash "Western began at that hour. All

that the formal reorganization will tie effect

will again be changed to conform with the
new corporate name, which will be "The

The ex-receiver, General McNulta, will
probably find enough to keep himself busy
in Chicago for a month or two yet, but his
control aud management of the road ended

Johnstown-, Jnne 30. The weather to
day was in strong contrast with the wet and
foggy days of last week. A number of vis
itors struck the town, but the majority took
advantage of the sunshine and went to the
reservoir. The fakirs were doing an excel
lent business, which seemed strange to
every Fittsburger accustomed to the strict
enforcement of the blue laws. I managed
to secure a glass of soda in Cambria City,
the first for many a day. General Hastings
had invited a number of guests to spend
Sunday with him. In tbe party were State
Senator Gobin, General Lowden S'nowden,
Adjutant General Axline, of Ohio, and
"William Flinn. Captain Jones remained
over and gave a dinner.
IN- HON OE OP THE VISITOB3.
Governor Foraker was expected to be
present, bnt he sent his regrets. Appro
priate speeches were made by General Snow
den, Senator Gobin,' General Wiley, Gen
eral Hastings, William Flinn and Colonel
Cosgrove, of Braddock. All the gentlemen
agreed that some great work, had been done
in Johnstown. During the morning they
rode over the devastated territory with Gen
eral Hastings. Those who had not seen the
awful wreck before, were astonished that
water could wreak such vengeance on help
less humanity.
General Axline, of Ohio, who arrived in
Johnstown on the Snnday morning after the
flood, and Colonel Spangler, related some
ot the things they saw to a croup of listen
ers. It is beginning to be feared that Get
tysburg will be forgotten, and the story
teller will commence his yarn with the re
mark: "Now, when I was at the Johnstown

nAXDTVOEKINO OFFICEBS.
People may say what they please, but
Governor Beaver has a hardworking set of
staff officers. Every man at the head of a
department is trying to beat the other in
conducting his business properly. Accounts
are kept ot the most trifling details with the
same exactness as if they involved millions.
The most rigid honesty it practiced, but
for fear some cranky legislator may question
the books two years heuce, the officers are
taking the greatest pains in the prepara
tions of their reports and the filing of papers
in the accounting department. No money
is paid out without a sworn voucher, and in
addition, every man must be identified.

at the Edgar Thomson works, has discovered
the remains of his sister, Mrs. Kate Young,
who perished in the flood at Johnstown.
They were found last Friday, and were to
have been brought to Braddock to-morrow
for interment, but Mr. Bridges will delay
this part nntil Tuesday, as he thinks he has
disclosed the fact tbat his aged mother's
body has been buried without Demg identi
fied. Mrs. Bridges was one of the oldest and
most respected residents of the Conemaugh
Valley, and lived at Johnstown at tbe time
the old Portage Bailroad was put through.
Mrs. Young, Mr. Bridges' sister,. was the
widow of the late Oliver Young, Esq., who
was engaged for a number of years on the

Colonel Hill deputized Dennis O'Connell

Johnstown, Jnne 30. I met Father
Davin this morning, who handled 850 bodies
in Cambria City. The Father holds to the
belief that fully 8,000 people were lost.
The people of Cambria City ask for the
privilege of buying lumber. They have 200
vacant lots, and 200 houses would protect
1,200 people. They are anxious to build
temporary houses on the rear of their lots
nntil they can put up permanent structures.

The sad expression of the sufferers at these

task to find six men who are not.
Only one of the jury lost property in the
flood, so that they cannot be influenced on

Johnstown, June 30. Governor Beaver
speaks of the distribution of the funds
among the sufferers as a mark of charity,
and the people don't relish tbe expression.
They want the Governor to revise his
phraseology. The people'have been made
destitute by a great calamity, but they claim
they are not pauper.
Everybody is waiting with interest for
the coming of Mr. Hugh Cummin, who
represents the' commission, and will look

JOINED AFTER MANY YEARS.
A Conple of Lovers Parted In Yontb Wedded
When Very Old.
tSrXCIAt. TELZOKAK TO TIIE DISPATCH.!
PoetJeeyis, N. Y., June 30. A mar
riage has just occurred here under romantic
circumstances, of parties long past the
scripturally allotted 70-year limit of human
life. Joseph Conkling, the groom, is in
his 84th year, while the bride, Mrs.
Maria Edwards, is in her 74th year. The
marriage ceremony was performed by the
Eev. S. W. Galloway, ot the Methodist
Church. The groom, a fine-looking and
active senior, with a profusion of iron-gray
hair, has long resided in Binghampton and
is possessed oi an ample fortune. Tbe
bride, who is also well preserved and
sprightly for her years, has for some time
resided here.
Over half a century ago Joseph Conkling
and Maria Tuttle were neighbors and lov
ers, living with their parents near Batavia,
N. Y. The course of true love did not run
smooth with them. It was the old story oi
the penniless suitor cruelly frowned upon
and turned away by 'the maiden's
well-to-do and inexorable parents. The
disappointed lovers went their respective
ways and fonnd other consorts, from whom,
in the course of time, they were parted by
death. Tbus bereaved, and after many
years of separation, the old time lovers met
again by chance, and the happy sequel is
told in the announcement of their nuptials
and departure on the conventional wedding
journey.

from what cause is unknown.
The Academy was built in 1853, and on
its boards all the great actors ot the country
had performed. Clara-Morris, Effie Ellsler,
and a dozen other stars graduated irom its
stock company, while Uncle John Ellsler
was its manager years ago, and pleasant
recollections will be aroused in the minds of
nearly all theatrical people by the news of
this fire. The Academy was under lease to
Captain J. "W. Decker, and was used as a
variety tneater.

COONS QUEERLY AFFECTED.
The Connecticut AnlmaU All Becoming Tax
nlyzed In the Hind Less.
Ansonia, Conn.. June 30. Some weeks ago
an item was published concerning the peculiar
epidemic which has attacked coons in the towns
bordering on the Housatonic river. They
crawled from tbelr nests to the brooks to
drink, were stricken with paralysis in the hind
quarters, and wcro nnable to crawl back. Tney
either died in the fields or were killed by tho
farmers' boys, who were after their pelts. It
has also been ascertained that coons are not
tbe only sufferers.
Woodchucks and even domestic cats are af
flicted in the same way, and for two weeks back
several hnndred of the former have been killed
In tbe town of Brid:ewater. One wildcat was
found by a farmer in Soutbbnry and killed. He
was also paralyzed in tho bind quarters. The
matter is attracting wiaespread attention, and
it is the topic uppermost in tbe conversation ot
the farmers as they meet at the village grocery
on Saturdays while doing their weekly trading
No explanation is given except poisoning, but,
as tbe epidemic is prevalent along the whole
length oi the river on both sides, that is not
satisfactory.
