Boston, Jan. 3. A dispatch from Col
umbus says that Mr. Thurman was recently
interviewed, and that he (Thurman) stated
most positively that Biston would have a
club in the American Association next year
with Charlie Prince as a leader. John Mor
rill wjs in to see mc the other day, and, as
he is a stockholder in the Boston P. L. club,
I asLed him what the chances were for an
association team in this city.
"I don't see any reason why we should
cot have a clnb here next year," said the
old Boston player, who played 13 years with
the Triuuivi'S. "We have a big following
in this city, and the people are dead in love
with the location of our grounds and sur
rounding. I know that Soden, Billings
audConantare making a vigorous protest,
bat tbc American Association has a little to
fay in tins matter and they au going to Gzbt
hard to seenre Boston for the Association cir
cuit." Mr. White, who is in tho employ of A. G.
Scalding, was along tilth Morrill, and he would
like to see an Association club locate- here.
I think," said White, "that Boston would sup
port its club better than any other city in the
Auicricau Association. Anyhow, the matter
. ill be fixed up soon, and then baseball will
brin to boom in jtreat shapes The pi a) ers are
vailing anxiously tn have matters settled up,
and you will see eme fun when the League
makes the announcement: 'We1 are now ready
to nien men and go ahead. The nest meeting
In New York between the magnates will result
in harmony, and everything will "be fixed np to
the satisfaction of all."
The Boston League club would like to secure
Nash, Richardson and Stovey of last vear's
Brotherhood team. Quinn Is another man
they would likctosecuie as Charlie Smith is
rather weak at the bat for a team looking for
xliampionslilp honors. atovey is the man above
kall others that tbeTriumvirs want to secure, and
irnow leaks out that he was offered $15,000 to
sign a three years' contract with the League
club. This fffer. however, was made when the
Brotbcthood was tlll alive, and it is not at all
likely that the Tnumvirswonld offer. Stovey as
much money now. .Mm ey will certainly play
in nnc of the liosion club', as the "Id Athletic
"club forfeited its franchise, and that was the
team that would be entitled to Stovet'sserv
Tices for next season had they plaed "the sea
son out bloiey lives in New Bedford, and as
he always likes to be near his family, there is
every reason frr believing that he will play
with Boston for manysea'onito come.
I heard from Johnnie Ward, just before New
i Year's, and from the tone of ins letter, there is
not much doubt about his bemgon thediatnond
next year, -i never told anvune that I was
co.ag to retire." savs v ard: "It is a fake out
of the whole cloth." Ward says he is waiting
to fee matters settled up. and after that, he
can tell more about bis future prospects. I
hope Pittsburg will be successful In seenrinc
I ard. and with a good nine in the field under
I Ward's command, there is no doubt but what
baseball Mould boom in Pittsburg as it never
boomed before. Pittsburg ha never had a
J firt-class leader, although E I Itanlon has done
9 some excellent work with Jim Crow timber.
I Ward nor no other man can mate men
play ball if they are not built that
waj; for that reason. the gentle
men running tho Pittburg clnb
should secure as strong a team asnionevcan
procure. The Pittsburgs away from hnmehavn
never been am Liuil of a drawing card, except
In Chicago, and next j ear will baihe tluieio
mike file n oney in cities like Boston, New
York. Brooklyn. Philadelphia and Cincinnati
The visiting teams now receiv-s 40 per cent of
the gate receipt, which is 15 per cent more
th.in was paid In 1SS9. But beware of vour big
brothers. Pittsburg and Cleveland. Ir the
League manatpfc ever get jou on their hips
they will squeeze jou through the wringing
machine aud make you take 2j per cent ol re

squeezed in this manner and had to retire alter
putting out a small fortune to get a wininn"

running and trottingturf, the kite-shaped track
of the former and the straight-an ay course f
the latter, aiding no little to the inroads toward
the annihilation of old father time. When in

horses beat the time scored by Fadladeen
and Ssalina, but although 1-10 was once beaten
a -mall margin saved the daj for Ten Broeck's
figures. It remained. boevcr. for the past
neason to take precedent over other jears a
not only was a new record for this popuUr
distance made, but no less than three hordes
beat the time scored by the horse whose fame
was sufficient to warrant bis anpreciative owner
to erect a handsome and costly monument o er
the spot where bis ashes now mingle with the
mother du-t. No lo-s than 113 times was 1:13
beaten during the past racing season, while 40
moro times its equal was hung up from tho

The change- in the distance or the bine ribbon
of the Kentucky turf, the Louisville Derby,
from a mile and a half to a mile and a quarter,
has caused considerable tronble in sporting cir
cles here, and not a few or thelcvcl headed fol

Jng of the knell which marks the beginning of
the ditulutiou of this time-honored race. For

Chicago, Jan. 4. George R. Clark, of this

spoken letter from D. C. 0'3I alley, of New Or
leans, anent the feeling inthe coming contest
between Jack Dempsey and Bob Fitzsimmons.
The letter came in response to a communica
tion to Manager McCann of the Audubon Club,
in which Clark asked for an idea of the feeling
at New Orleans. The letter says:
"Relative to your request as to the merits of
Fitzsimmons and Dempsey. allow me to say
that I am an ardent admirer of Dempsey, but,
as sentiment plavs no part in the contest ana
desiring to answer you candidlv, 1 do not be
lieve be will be in it. I am betting a little
monev that way. The majority of the peoplo
here differ from me in this opinion. My advice
to my friends would he to .hot early and often
on Fitzsimmons, and take any odds tbat may
be given that he will win insltle of 10 rounds. I
now endeavor to call the turn bv saying that
Fitz will win inside of 10 rounds.
"Leaving this matter to your kind consider
ation and offering mv services for any favors

am, j ours sincerely, D. C. O'Mii ixet.

Local Baseball Officials Think That Ward
Witt Land In This City.
Officials of theHocal ball club are not at all
discouraged abont the reports, to the effect
that John M. Ward may be retained on the
New York team next season. The general
opinion is that President' Day will not in any
waytrvand deprive Pittsburg-of Ward's ser
vices ir the latter desires to come here.
One local official said last evening: "Or
course, this is not the time to talk definitely
abont the matter, but I may point out that It
would scarcely be fair to Waid to force him to
play on a team where one prlwo players are
strongly objectionable to htm. Matter have
been compromised and it will be no compro
mise if a Tew clubs ot the National Leacue try
to run everything to suit themselves. After
the League ineetmc, which will be held on the
31th inst. we will be able to talk more definitely
on this matter."

POLISH CHURCH TROUBLES.
A BITTER FETJD BETWEEN TWO C0KGEE
GAT10HS AT 'CHICAGO.
Several Sacred Vessels Stolon From the
Church of the Holy Trinity The Theft
Charged to the Rival Church and a Tight
Is Feared.
Chicago, Jan. 4. There is war again
between the St. Stanislaus Polish Church
and its neighbor of the same denomination,
the Holy Trinity Church. On Saturday
night be 'ore Christmas the Holy Trinity
Church was entered from the rear and two
costly golden chalices, from which the
Holy Sacrament is administered, and one of
the sacred vessels of solid gold were stolen
from the altar. The two chilices are
worth about $1,000, bat significant feat
ure of the thelt is the fact that the bases
of the urns, whioh are the most
valuable part of them, weretlnscrewed from
the bowls and left behind only the bowls
being taken. As the bowls of the chalices
are held especially sacred, it is evident that
the thieves did uot steal them on account of
their value, but for the purpose of depriving
the Holy Trinity altar oi its most sacred
jurniturc The theft bas been kept very
quiet in the hope that, iniormation might
leak out which would give a clew to the
sarriligious robbery. The members of the
Holy Trinity Church, however, believe that
the deed was committed by someone of the
opposition church.
St. Stanislaus Church stands on the corner
of Noble and Ingraham streets, aud the
Holy Trinity Church is ouNoble street.only
three blocks away. The animosity between
the two churches began with the building of
the Holy Trinity edifice in 1874, and the
hatred between the two .flocks has fre
quently developed into open riots. Tenuis
sion was given the Holy Trinity people to
build their church by Bishop Foley with the
understanding that it should be a "filial"
church and not a parish church. The Holy
Trinity people, however, insisted upon mak
ing it a parish church and demanded a
priest of their own. The Itev. father Vin
cent Barzynski, pastor ot St. Stanislaus
Church, s-iid mass in the. Holy Trinity edi
fice for about two years, but this arrange
ment was extremely galling to tbc Holy
Trinity yeople. , f '
They opculy chareed- Father Barzvnski
with indifference to their spiritual and" tem
poral welfare. He belongs to tha order of
insurrectionists and it is claimed by the
Trinity flock that he was trying to bring
their church into the order to 'which they
were bitterly opposed.. They again de
manded a priest ot their own. The Bishop
re used to give them one except on con
dition that they give the Bishop a quit
claim deed of the church property. In 1877
the Bey. father Simon Mielcnszny took the
pastorate ot the church without the permis
sion of the Bishop, and, in consequence, the
pastor was excommunica ed..
The Eev. Mr. Mielcu-zny died very sud
denly and mysteriously in bis -own "house,
and the Holy Trinity people Openly asserted
their suspicious that he was murdered by
parties of the opposition church. The death
of the priest precipitated, a fierce riot be
tween the two Polish factions,- in which
several persons Were injured. About two
years ago it was arranged to give the Bishop
a clear title to the chnrch property, and he
was to iend them" a pastor. Jiev. father
Simon Kobrzynski was assigned to the Holy
Trinity Church, and after carintr for his
flock for about six month's, locked up .b.t
cnurcn ana quit, talcing tee keys with mm.
This was abont six months ago." -
The thief or thieves who stole "the chalices
had kexstothechnrcb.andthe HolyTrinlty
people believe that the church was unlocked
by the keys carried away bv their lormer
priest, and attribute the theft to the St.
Stanislaus faction. The bitter enmity which
has been dormaut lor a, lime has broken
loose afresh, and a religiouv.fight more in
tense than ever i imminent.
HB1S NOT ORTHODOX.
The Com injj Trial of tbelicY. Howard
MacQneary for Heresy
Afl EYENT IS f . E. CHDECH CIRCLES
Charged With Iiolding; Views Contrary to
the Standard.
WHAT HE SAXS ABOUT HIS BELIEFS
Canton, Jan. 4. No trial of late years
has approached in interest that which is to
begin in Cleveland, O., ou January 7.
The defendant wilt be the Ber. Howard
MacQueary, formerly rector of St. Paul's
Protestant Episcopal Church, Canton, O.,
the court a committee of clergymen of the
Diocese of Ohio, appointel by Bishon Leon
ard, and the charge the holding and preach
ing of views that are heretical and contrary
to the standards of the Church. Mr. Mac
Qneary will detend himself, assisted, how
ever, by some eminent clerical friends.
Mr. MncQneary is a native of Albemarle
county, Va. His mother was a Garland,
and his relatives are numerous in the f . F.
V.'s, Originally a planter, and self-educated
as a youth, adversity drove Mr. Mac
Queary from the plantation to Washington,
where for ten years he was engaged in busi
ness. He then returned to a Virginia col-J
lege, and graduated aud entered the Episco
pal seminary at Alexandria, "Va. In course
of time he was stationed at St. Paul
Church, Canton, and immediately became
popular and attained high rank as a
preacher and ppmotcr of intellectual life.
He organized a philosophical .society and a
literary club. His evolution of belief is thus
described by himself:
How Die Beached Ills Conclusions.
"I was educated in the strictest school of
evangelical orthodoxy. In the seminary
apologetics and divinity always interested
me more than any other branch ot study. I
left the seminary thoroughly orthodox. In
ISSol attended the Church' Congress in New
Haven, ahd stopped in New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore to study church life. My eyes
were opened, and I returned to Falrmount, W.
Va., determined to reconsider my whole theo
logical position. I first broke with tbc tradi
tional faith on the question of endless punish
ment, and this atter a careful study of Canon
Farrar'sand Canon Row's works. The atone
ment next claiined my attention, and 1 soon
saw the unscripturaluess and unrationallty of
the Calvlnistic theology. Of course, it was
only a step to the question or man's rail and
tbc question ot his origin and development.
After a study or Dawson, McCosb, Geikeand
the Duke or Arcyle.wbo are neither anti-evolutionists
or Christian evolutionists, I turned to
Le Conte, Wincbell. and then to the fuller con
sideration or the works or Darwin. Spencer
and Huxley, and the result was acceptance of
the views of the latter.
"Tyndall's discussion of prayer! for material
blesines brought up the subject of miracles,
and I turned Urst to orthodox apologists such
as Mozley, Christlieb, Westcott, and then to
therationalists, Bauer, Strauss, Reuan, David
son, etc. I flun: them aside, took up the early
fathers themselves, and studied the literature
of primitive Christianity, and was forced to the
conclusion stated in my book, which is an out
lino of theology from the evolution standpoint,
in which I have collected the opinions urged by
many eminent Christians, many of them lead
ing theologians in my own chnrch, the differ
ence between me and them being tbat I have
collected all their 'heresies' into a complete
system, whereas they have divided it up among
themselves.'
Some Other Views Explained.
The book above referred to is the Immediate
cause ot Mr. MacQneary's trial. Published
abont a year ago with the title or "The Evolu
tion or Man and of Cbns'iauity," it mado
known to the religions press and the clergy at
large thesame views which Mr. MacQucaiy had
been preaching for some time. So great was
the storm of adverse opinion which fell upon
Mr. MacQuearv's head and tho shoulders of
Bishop Leonard that the latter requeued Mr.
MacQueary to retire from the cbnrih in which
he was preaching and appear before the Dio
cesan Committee for trial.
Mr. MacQneary's views on th incarnation
and resurrection have been those most serious
ly objected to, but on tbeso points he asserts he
has been grievously misrepresented He ays:
"I believe Christ was 'Godmanifest in the
flesh' tbat is. He was as much ot tho Divine
Spirit as could be forced, so to speak, into Un
ite human form.
"As to the resurrection, I believe that Jesus
appeared after His death In the spiritual body
spoken ot by St. Paul in I. Corinthian', xv.,
and not His fleshly body that He bad before IIi
died, and that all the details about the guarded
tomb, the eating of Ssli in the Gospel' aro later
additions to the primitive account. In short, I
accept both tho miraculous birtb and the resur
rection of onrXord, merely rejecting the phys
ical element in these miracles because, in my
judgment, insufficiently attested."
His Farewell Sermon.
Bev. Mr. MacQneary's sermon this morn
ing created something of a sensation. He
virtually admitted that he did not expect to
preach again in the Episcopal Church. He
evidently expects the decision of the eccles
iastical court, to convene thi&.week, will be
against him. His sermon was very brief
and he prefaced it as follows:
Inasmuch as I do not know what my
ecclesiastical status ma be one week from to
day, I cannot aunouuee services for next Sun
day. It !, or course, possible tint 1 may hold
services in this church then. You will learn
more definitely about the matter through tho
newspapers during the week. 1 shall certainly
deliver one more sermon in Canton, but
whether in this building or some other remains
to be seen.
I am sorry to say that tho result ol my labors
in this church has not been what I had hoped
for and expected. Both sides have doubtless
heen more or less to blame, and 1 am willing to
bear my sha-e of the blame, and I dare say the
congregation is more than willing I should bear
it all. lam not sure that I have helped a single
soul to a higher and holier life, and the thought
is mote painfnl than I daro tell yon. for no
Breaching, however profound or eloquent, is
truly successful unless it improves the moral
and spiritual character of man.

THE SOCIETY A FRAUD.
Residents of NIlcs Who Gave Their Good
Money to a Sharper.
rSrZCJAI. TELEGHAMTO TUB DISrATCH.1
YonKGSTOtVN. Jan. 4 During the past
month a smooth talker named E. C. Linn
visited Nlles and organized a branch of the St.
Paul Savings and International Society, which
he claimed was a gilt-edged organization with
a paid-up capital or J2,X),00a He sneceeded
in cetting 512,500 ot stock taken on which the
members paid $250. Soon after his departure
the members became suspicious and upon
making an investigation discovered that tbey
had been victimized, and that the .52,000.000
capital consisted of 400 acres ot unimproved
land lying nine miles from Sc Paul.
To-day information was received from St.
Paul that the society is a fraud, and that the
scheme is being worked successfully in many
cities and towns. The victims of Linn in Niles
are trying to. obtain a clue to him, and will
cause his arrest for obtaining money under
false pretenses. .

Oil, City, Jan. 4. This place Is well pleased
over the prospects of having the long talked-ot

The contract expired and a survey was made,
and a new road was soon announced as a sure
thing, bnt nothing was ever done. The West

A SCHEME OF BELIEF-
Suggested for the Irisk by tho
Viceroy and Secretary Balfour.
READY TO TAKE IT IN CHARGE.
Failure of the Potato Crop ,Kut the Bole
Cause of SntTerinrr,
HOW TBE WOIIK SHOULD BE CARRIED ON
Dublin, Jan. 4. The Earl of Zetland,
Viceroy of Ireland, and, Chief Secretary
Balfour sign a document which has been
issued on the condition of the poor in the
western Dart of Ireland. The declaration
.says:
Poverty Is chronic In somo districts'and will.
if the people are not aided, reach a stage of
acute distress during the winter and spring.
There is neither a resident gentry nor a sub
stantial middle class tn give employment, nor
are there charitable organizations to aid those
nho are unable to aid themselves. Outdoor
relief, except in cases of emergency, cannot
legally bo administered except to persons hold
ing over a quarter ol an acre ot land.
Although none acquainted with tho history
ot the Irish poor law would regard tbe relaxing
of this rule as other than a pnblic calamity, its
maintenance undoubtedly limits tbe capacity
to deal with periods of exceptional distress.
The position thus created leaves a part o( the
socitl organism sick at all times stricken with
a disease from which, without extraneous help.
It has no power to rally.
Clear Judgment Is If ceded.
The question Is not whether it ought to be
given, or bow it oucht to bo given to a class
and for what special purposes. Charity ,111-ad-minfstered
injures tbe recipients everywhere,
but is especially injurious lu those parts with
which we are concerned. Elsewhere tbe Injury
may be confined to a class relatively small, but
in tho worse portions of the congested districts
the whole community may be affected.
All are poor, all can plausibly appeal for aid,
and help recklessly given in response may In
fect whole tounshlps with tbe vices and weak
nesses or professional mendicancy. We have
spoken of this, matter to many priests aha
others acquainted with the condition of tbe
people. There was not' one of them, however
keenly they may have felt tbe sufferings of
those among whom tbey lived, who did not ad
mit that permanent ill-effects followed from
much charitable expenditure within their ex
perience. Accuracy or Appeals for Help.
Regarding tbe appeals for help. It Is needless
to say that tales of distress need not be taken
as authentic because they are couched in
strong language and seem to come from well
informed quarters. The desire to stimulate
flagging charity has been a fruitful sonrce of
exaggeration. We do not know tha; there is
any reason to suppose that In Ireland this
tendency is likely to be controlled by long es
tablished babits of severe and disciplined ac
curacy. It is not easy adequately to check
such statements, even by perional observation
aided by statistics, however accurate.
In regard to the failure of .the potato crop,
small occupiers in the West seem at first sight
all to live much in the same way. They are
lodged in tho same cabins, cultivate tbe same
kind of holdings, and are clothed with tbe same
kind of dress. It would be natural to couclnde
that in all places where the failure of the crop
Is tbe same the distress Is tbe same. But such
is not the case. In no district does the bulk of
the community live wholly on tbe potato.
Every district has means of livelihood inde
pendent of the cultivation of the potato, such
as fishing, labor in Uncland, cottaee in
dustries, kelp making and the sales of farm
stock, ,
The Degree of Distress.
Tbe degree of the fiiluro of the potato crop
is therefore by itself a misleading guide to the
degree or distress existing among tbe people.
Other elements in the finding of tbe position of
tho people are the amount of their savings
and their debt and credit with local tradesmen.
Furthermore in the nrganlzttion or any nlan
or gratuitous assistance caution is necessary
in order that it shall not interfere with the
system or railway relier works. Several
thousands or pounds weekly are already dis
tributed In the form of wages lnN tbe districts
most in need. Those getting wages through
work ought not to get charity without it.
The eonclnsions we come to are that charity
ought to be confined; first, to families which
aro in want which, having no able-bodied per
son among tbem, cannot derive benefit from
the public relief works; second, to providing
ineats-in the scheols for children attending
them, and third, to supplying clothes for chil
dren nnahle tn procure them elsewhere. These
forms or assistance are less liable to abuse
than others.
There Should Be Only One Head.
The declaration proceeds to discuss th'e
requisites tor a good distribution of aid
among tbe poor. The authority for such
distribution, it says, should be single, for
the vesting of this authority in more than
one person would cause confusion as to
areas and inequality of resources, and
would lead to no rational adjustment be
tween needs and means. The single dis
tributing authority ought to command all
available means of information as to the
condition of the people throughout the
country.
The declaration concludes:
To those who think that we, who can obtain
the services or pour law inspectors, school in
spectors, relieving officers, resident magis
trates, the police and others resident In local
ities affected, and ho already are officially re
sponsible for relief works far exceeding any
thing tbat charity is likely tu effect to those
who think we are better equipped ror carrying
nut this work than persons not having these
advantages, .we offer to undertake the manage
mentor the distribution of any funds intrusted
to us. We believe thit money so spent will be
well spent.
All assistance in the shape of food or cloth
ing through this channel, or any other, which
reaches children and helpless persons will
lighten or remove much immediate suffering
without exaggerating chronic evils requiring
different and continuous treatment for a per
manent cuic. Subscriptions and clothing will
be received by the Counters of Zetland, at the
Vice Regil Lodge; Miss Bajfour, at tbe Ch'er
Secretary's Dodge, or by the viceroy of Mr.
Balfour.

TBT DClttAV'S CABLE COltrAST.t
Behlin, Jan. i. The Puritans, in their
zeal for the reformation of morals, have

scrupled to reprove the Kaiser for what
they call his g.-oss violation ofithe'Sunday

able to check presumptous conduct on the

Stocker so far forgot himself as to invoke
tbc patronage of the Empress in his dispute

.'special tziigham to xnx dupatctm
Trenton, Jan. 4. At midnight last
night a requisition arrived on Adjutant
General Stryker for troops to gotoBarnsgat
Park and quell a riot The Adjutant Gen
eral communicated with Governor Abbett,
and the latter ordered out tbe companies o
the National Guard located at Camden.
Barnegat Park is a new resort in Ocean
county, on the .New Jersey Southern Bail
road, and five miles from Tom's river.
About 100 Italians employed there in the
work of grading streets and similar im
provements, and who have not been paid in
full for their labor, threatened to burn
down the village, and so menacing was
their attitude and conduct tbat the citizens
decided on calling on tbe military lor pro
tection. Barnegat Park is the summer resort of a
number of active and retired army officers.
They formed a company several years ago,
and began tbe sale of lot": Since then the
place has grown into a village, with many
beautiful cottages, several stores, a fine ho
tel, known as "Tbe Pines," and a boulevard
stretching several miles to Barnegat Bay.
Two months ago the Italian laborers began
to grumble because they were not paid reg
ularly or in full for their labor. Lieuten
ant E. A. Farrow, of the Twenty-first In
fantry, who is the resident representative of
the stockholders of the company, and at the
head ot tbe local government, it is said,
promised the Italians that tbey should be
paid promptly, "but they received little or no
money after that.
The Italians Threaten Bloodshed.
Three weeks ago they threw down their
picks and shovels and declared that unless
a settlement was made with them at once
they would loot the place. They showed
revolvers and stijletos and evinced such
ugliness that Lieutenant Farrow called ou
Sheriff Hagtman, of Ocean county, for-pro-tection.
The Sheriff organized (v strong
posse and remained in Barnegat Park two
days. It required both nerve and diplo
macy on his part then to prevent bloodshed.
The Italians declared that Ihey hao! been
robbed and that advantage had heen taken
of their inability to speak English.
Through an interpreter, ttiey were promised
their pay iniull on the first of January,
and thus the difficulty was temporarily
patched up. The Italians resumed work
and comparative quiet reigned until New
Year's day, when their money not being
forthcoming tbey once more grew ugly.
To-day Sheriff Hageman was summoned
in haste to the Park to protect lives and
property. He responded to the call with a
dozen heavily armed deputies and his
prompt arrival undoubtedly saved the place
from destruction. The Italians were fairly
wild with rage. With piccs, shovelr, re
volvers and knives they paraded the streets,
threatening to kill every man, woman and
child in the place and then lay the buildings
in ashes.
Inhabitants Fly in Terror.
Most of the inhabitants fled to Tbe Pines
and many hysterical women and frightened
children were taken to the near-by woods.
Prosecutor of the Pleas Middleton arrived,
and by his advice Sheriff Hageman swore
in SO more men to serve as deputies. This
show of strength and determination to sup
press them had a subduing effect upon the
Italians- Woid waa received- here to-night
that the moh could be held by the Sheriff's
posse until to-morrow, when final settle
ment will be made with the men.
Notwithstanding tbc manv Improvements
made there, Barnegat Park has not been
boomineas it should, and in consequence
the assessments made on stockholders and
lot owners have not been regularly paid,
which accounts for the non-payment of the
laborers. The company requires all the em
ployes to livein tbe place and deal at certain
stores. These regulations and others of a
red-tape character have had more or less to
do with incensing the men. Lieutenant
Farrow is confident that he will be able to
meet all the obligations iu a few days. A
meeting ot the company will be called at
once. The ordering out of the troops was
countermanded at a late hour, owing to
word being received Irom Sheriff Hageman
that his own iorce was sufficient to overcome
the mob.
