from Marrying;.
Tbe mere statement that Charles C

ried yesterday by Rev. Rogers Israel in
St. Lake's ehurch does not convey toy
particular signiBeanoe. Interest is
added to the event by tbe total blindness
ot bride and groom and two others who
attended the ceremony, as well as the
blindness in one eye of another mew-
ber of the bridal party. All are well
known people.

vices of Mr. Israel. , Miss Bennett, now

Impressive Episcopal marriage ritual
was soon pronounced and the party
left the church headed by the newly
wedded couple, band-in-hand.
Last night a Tribune reporter found
a number of merry persons at tbe
bride's horns in Hennessy court near
Jackson street. Linn, the blind musi
cian, was there in office and everybody
was happy.
The bride is a dangbter of Charles
Bennstt, the blind peddler, wbo is a
fxmlliar peddler about the oity. Miss

City Yesterday Afternoon Hun
dreds Will Go Today Brief Sketch
of the Commercial Travelers' As.
sociation and Founding of the Home.
Bingbamton has never had so elab
orate and extensive a oelebratiou as
the oorner-stone laying of the Home of
tbe Commercial Travelers' Association
ot the United States wbioh occurs this
afternoon. The invited guests number
no lees personages than President Cleve
land, ex-President Harrison, Governors

governors and tbelr staffs of several
other states of the Union, Levi P. Mor
ton, Cbauncey M. Depew, Senator
David B. Hill, Senator Mnrpby, Con
gressman Reed and all tbe officers,
members of oongress and the legisla
ture ot the state of New York; tbe
mayors of all the cities of New York
and Pennsylvania, and the representa
tives of the press and members of
prominent bueiuees houses throughout
the United States.
The subjtct of bnilding a home for
indigent commercial travelers is one
that bad occupied the minds of tho
fraternity for many years, Int no
definite action was taken until March
12. 1801. On that date tbe following
commercial travelers were stopping at
the Sherman house, Jamestown, N. Y :
A. H. Ellis. Willsboro, N. Y. ; O. C.
Brown, Greanville, Pa. ; William
Trier, New York city; C. P. Olp. Mt.

tor, N. Y.; Aldrtcb. Detroit; W. O.
Thomas, Rochester; J. D. Fuller, Jor
dan, N. Y., and D. M. BodU, Bing
bamton. Tbe subject was thoroughly dis
cussed and upon tbe suggestion of A.
H. CalAum, a preliminary organization
was effected by tbe election ot A. H.
Ellis, president, and 3. D. Aldricb,
secretary. The purpose was to feel tbe
pulse of traveling men and see if the
time was ripe to take definite action.
In September of the same year, Mr,
Aldrioh bad besome thoroughly satis
fied that an association of this kind
oould be formed, and sent ont postal
cards calling a meeting at Elmiraon

The meeting was held at Bunday hall
and waa attended by a nnmber of rep
resentative traveling men. Officers
were elected and a committee appoint
ed to sesure a charter. This sommittee,
after consulting eminent legal author
ity, decided that speoial legislation was
necessary in order to obtain the onjots
desired, and Hon V. E. Peckhain, of
Jamestown, IS. Y., was engaged to
draft a bill for a special ast of incor
poration. The bill was presented to
tne legislators or the state of New
York in Jmuary, 1802; passed both
houses and was signed by Governor
Flower on February 25 Accompany
ing tne mil was a statement from the
executive from which the following
sentences are extracts: "The obj.c: of
tne mil is praiseworthy, Coder tbe
r xot-ptlonal eirenmstauees of this case,
I approve of the 6111."

Cheering news came in the shape of
on order from tbe officials ot tbe Lacka
wanna Iron and Steel company yester
day to tbe employes of tbe North
works that tbe mill wonld start up to

only regrettable feature of tbe resump
tion ot work comes from the insecurity
of the period which tbe mill will be
operated on double turn.

SMITH WAS VERY KIND
. r
Got Mixed Up la I Barglarj While Trying to
ce Accommoaaung.
THAT IS THE STORY HE TELLS
When Court Adjourned a Jury Was
Out Trying to Decide If Smith and
Cotton Did Rob the Connsll Resi
denceJohn M. Burke, of Dickson
City, Tried for Keeping a Tippling
House, Case Heard In No. 2.
Criminal oonrt opened yesterday
morning with Judge Elwsrds on the
bench in the main court room and
Judge Onnster ln No. 8. Before Judge
Edwards the first ease called for trial
was the commonwealth against Osorire
Smith and Fred Cotton, charged with
having burglarized of Frank II Con
nsll of Bank street in this oity on the
night of Aug. SO. It was shown by the
prosecution that Offloer Ooerlils, who
was on duty at the Court House
square, ou the night of Aug. 20, posi
tively Identified Smith as one of two
men he saw going towards Bank
street on that night.
On Aug. S3 Smith and Cotton were
arrested at Binghamton where Smith
bad left a satchel in a hotel which con
tained clothes and silverware that had
bean stolen from tbeConnell residence.
STORIES OF TBE DEFENDANTS.
Smith admitted having been In this
city on Ang. SO and said, be went to
Binghamton where on Aug, 22 he met
three men walking on the railroad.
One of them had a satchel with him
which he offered to sell Smith. He
said it contained clothes and silver
ware which bad been bf queatbed to
him by his mother who died a short
time before, bmith agreed to try and
still the contents of the satchel for the
stranger.
In the meantime he met Cotton,
whom he bad not seen for years, and
thiy took the satchel to a pnwnsnop,
which they fonnd closed. Not desir
ing to carry the satebel aronnd with
them, they left it at an adjoining ho
tel, Cotton declared that be had never
been ln Scranton prior to being
bronght here as a prisoner after his
arrest in Jiinghamton. Both men dis
claimed all knowledge of the burglary.
Attorney P. W. Stokes made a strong
effort to convince the jury that the
men were guiltless, while District At
torney Kelly argued that they were
tbe men who committed tbe burglary.
At 3 o'clock the jury retired to make
np its verdict It did not agree while
court was ln session.
TIPPLIKO HOUSB CASE.
Constable Richard Barrow was tbe
prosecutor in a ease against John M,
Bnrke of Dickson City, wbo wae
charged with keeping a tippline hous.
It was tried before Judge El wards
Burke is an old man and a cripple, wbo
finds It difficult to move abont, even
with crutches. His condition evident
ly excited much pity from tbe jurors.
It is a somewhat remarkable fact
that it Is very rarely that any consta
ble returns a person for violating tbe
liquor laws wbo is not in some way
physically innrme I. Ihose wbo have
the full use of their powers have no
dituculty, apparently, in boodwinktng
tbe argus-eyed constables oi tne
oounty. The cripples who arc re
turned usually escape througn tbe pity
which the jurors feel for their in
firmiiies.
It was shown by the testimony of
a number of witnesses that beer and
whiskey was purcbised at Barke's
place. Attorney Joseph O'Brien, who
represented tbe defendant, offered no
evidence on tbo part of bis client and
tbe case went to tbe jnry without ar
gutnopt on Vie obarga of tbe oonrt.
