The youth of this city greatly amused
themselves yesterday at the expense
of the passer-by. One very bright trick
by which at least 200 people were duped
was an ordinary G-cent piece soldered to
a nail driven In the sidewalk. Last
evening they resorted to sport of a
more serious nature. A large plank
was propped between the rails of the
street car track, arrayed in such a man
ner as to represent a man. In an at
tempt to run it down the headlight on
one of the electric cars was completely
destroyed.

Considerable Interest centers in the
trial of Fred-Wall and Bert Pratt for
thei murder of G. W. Waterman, which
will take place at April session of court,
sitting next week. The coroner's jury
that Investigated the case at the time
of the murder have been subpoenaed,
but their secretary, J. Wood Piatt, still
refuses to deliver to the district at
torney the notes taken In long hand at
the Inquest, the only record of the pro
ceedings that was preserved. The. only
explanation for such a course Is that he
has been retained on the defense, and to
turn the papers over to the prosecution
might expose some points of evidence
that would otherwise fall to be brought
out against the prisoners. His claim Is
that he was merely reporting for the
Scranton Republican, and that the
court had no right to the notes. His
claim Is an unjustifiable one., He was
In the employ of the county, paid by
the county, and, accepting the respon
sibility of acting as clerk for the In
vestigating body, the county had a
claim upon his services that no news
paper could supersede. Some of the
witnesses examined at the inquest are
now dead, and in the interest of public
safety every available avenue should
bo opened that might load to the detec
tion of those who committed the mur
der. The second view of the proposed
change of road on the highway leading

taken this season, however. The sur
vey and plans have already cost $275,
and as a new Iron bridge Is to be con
structed over Swale Brook, and the

able repair, the public exchequer will

house. The court ruled that the condi
tions in Collins' case had been fully
met, and, under the law, he had no

had been selling liquor for some time
under license of former proprietor of

and was In several ways unqualified to
fill the bill.

New York, April 2. Business at the
Stock exchange was less active, the sales
footing up only 104,000 shares. The course
of prices was Irregular, but the undertone
continued firm, the reaction being as
cribed to liquidations. American sugar
was the most active stock on the list. It
opened at 103V4. This was followed by a
decline to 102, a subsequent recovery to
102. The decline In the stock was due
to the shutting down of the Havemeyer
and Elder refinery and a belief that other
refineries will also be closed until the
heavy stocks of refined are worked off.
The other Industrials were firm through
out and made slight gains for the day.
