Says Rochester and Toronto Have Made a Good Showing. , The Toronto and Rochester enthus iasts should find more than one grain of comfort In the following extract from a letter written by President P. T. Powers, of the Eastern league, to Secretary Elmore, of the Torontos, In which he says: "I am very much pleased with the Eastern league outlook for 1895. It never was as promising of success as at the present time. I am agreeably surprised at the good showing of the Toronto and Rochester clubs on this trip. They being new clubs I was fear ful that they would make poor showing, but under the circumstances anil the fact that the men were strangers to each other I think both teams have done well. The Eastern league certainly Is o be congratulated at having all the eams so evenly matched so early in the season. It has 4?very Indication of a very successful season." DIAMOND DUST.

In local sportlngclrcles It is quite gen erally regretted that James Judge Is even considering a match for a finish with Mike Leonard or Young tlrlffo. It Is felt that the young Scranton light weight has a promising career before him, provided he refuses to be wheedled Into a match with fast company until he has first gained more experience and power in contests with lesser lights of the ring. The friends of Judge are supported In their claim that he had a slight ad vantage over Leonard when the gong was sounded at the end of the sixth round .In the Frothingham Monday night. But there were several specta tors, friends of the Scranton boy, who know a fight when they see one, and who were glad that the bout ended when It did. They contended that Judge, by reason of his comparative Inexperience and only fair condition, would have had his hands full at the end of, say, the eighth round. These friends do not underestimate the Scranton lad's ability. He Is scien tific and he can punch, but to be a ring general he will have to do what all successful fighters have done before him he will have to get experience. Said a well-known sporting man yester day, a gentleman whose advice Is often heeded: "If the lad goes against Leon ard or any other high grade lightweight he will be whipped. Judge, with his experience, is better, I believe, than many others were at comparatively the same time in their careers; but he should keep away from finish fights until he has fought more limited round bouts with good men like Leonard. Then let him sign finish articles and we will all go and play him straight." All of yesterday Judge's splendid showing against Leonard was the main topic of discussion In sporting circles. His only two professional battles were against Timothy Qulgley last summer and Charles Woods during the winter. The Qulgley contest was fought In Phil adelphia, and was stopped In the fourth round by the police. In the Woods fight, which was pulled off In a barn near Camden, the Englishman sprained both hands In the fifteenth round, and was not put out until seven more rounds had been fought. It Is because Judge has only these two fights to his credit that his friends hope he will not make a match with Leonard, who has a long string of victories and a knowl edge of .the ring born of experience.

Under the head of reports of commit tees an answer from the Scranton Traction company was received rela tive to that company's undertaking a part of the expense engendered In the proposed paving of Jackson, Hobinson and Ninth streets. Vice-President E. M. Clark, of the company, said In a let ter which was read, that his company "should not be asked to bear any part of the expense." Mr. Clark, who Is a resident of Phila delphia, will be present in the city to day, and the street and bridge commit tee will wait upon the gentleman and again present the request of the board that the company help pay for the pave.

The macadamizing of South Main avenue was talked of, no definite step being taken. This precipitated a dis cussion on the laying of a sewer in Lu zerne street. Many members talked on the subject, a reference being made to the illegality of certain dispositions of ward appropriations. Councilman Oli ver stated that he had It from good au thority that councllmen had no right to expend ward appropriations on streets; that the ptreet commissioner Is the proper and the only person who should attend to the matter. K!ty Engineer Phillips stated that much damage is done to the streets by repairing places which have not been graded. T. Ells worth Davis also spoke on the matter. Returning to the Luzerne street sewer, Mr. Mason suggested thn. the thor oughfare be sewered between Tenth street and the river, inasmuch as a dllH culty would be experienced in crossing Main avenue. New members were pleated as fol lows: Thomas D. Davis, Joseph Oli ver, and M. E. Worden. In regard to he laying of a sidewalk on South Main avenue. In front of the Fellows cemetery, definite action was taken. As announced In this depart ment a few weeks ago, the resolution which passed councils advertising for bids for the laying of .the walk has been smothered In the council streets and bridges committee. Councilman Oliver gave the board an oMlcial state ment of the fact. A committee was ap pointed to see the owners of the ceme tery and request action in the matter. The committee consists of T. Ellsworth Davis, Joseph Oliver and T. Fellows Mason. Under the head of election of officers the following received tho full vote of those present: President, T. Fellows Mason; William Farrel, vice-president; W. R, Williams, treasurer; C..E. Dan iels, secretary. At the meeting held a month ngo the names of D. Jones and D. D. Evans were proposed for the office of president, but both gen tlemen declined the offer. Secretary Daniels read his annaul report, which showed $104.75 received during the year, from which sum $1.20 was deducted for expenses. The treasurer's report dls-, closed the fact that $113.05 had been re ceived, and $107.25 deducted for ex penses, leaving a balance of $6.30. A vote of thanks was tendered the secre tary.

ROBBED HIS SEVLN WIVES. nigamous Swindler, Ono of Whose Rich Dupes Trapped Him. Detroit, Mich., MaMy 14. There Is now on a train bound for Detroit a matrimonial swindler and bigamist, whose bigamous relations extend to Great Britain and four states of the Union. His name Is C. J. White, and he is described as an oily, smooth tongued individual, who had special powers to fascinate the fair sex. His present trouble Is entirely due to a Brooklyn woman, a MIsb Tomllnson, the only daughter of a respectable Brooklyn man, who was married to White a little less than twelve years ago In Brooklyn. It appears that White met Miss Tomllnson, and she knew nothing of his antecedents or what was his special claim for social favoritism In the circles In which she moved. She was known to have $12,000 n her own right, and to her the penniless White paid devoted attention, and they were wedded. Mlsa Tomllnson, who then believed herself a genuine bride, gave him $1,000 to start business. The business "did not pay," and he Inveigled $2,500 more out of her, and (they came west. Then he Induced her to deposit her money In a safe deposit vault. By a slelght-of-hand trick he deposited a lot of worth less paper In ithe box, and put Miss Tomllnson's money away In his pocket. Shortly afterword ho disappeared. Miss Tomllnson traced him all over this country, and finally to Ireland, where she learned he had a previous wife. The first Mrs. White was Induced to come to America, and since then, with private detectives, the two women have worked together for their revenge, with the result that White was arresed In Buchanan with a woman, who passed herself off as his sister. When the couple were arrested, AVhltney, or Wrhlte, hiadi $1,200 1n cash, and the woman with him a lot of diamonds. The dectectlves have picked up In formation which leads them to believe that White has no less than seven wives, one In Glasgow, another In Lon don, another In Ireland, one In Boston, a woman In Detroit, one In Chicago, and they also believe that the woman with him, who comes from the Interior of Indiana, Is the latest accession to this multi-married man.

Woodward, Laurel Hill, Fayette County, Pa, EXPLOSION ON STEAMBOAT Fatal Catastrophe on Lake St. Clair. ONE MAN IS KILLED OUTRIGHT One Blown Overboard and tho Third Frightfully Injured-Pants Among the Passengers on the Craft. Tbe Flues Crooked. Detroit, Mich., May 14. A terrible ac cident occurred last night on the New River steamer Unique In Lake St. Clair which caused the death of two men and possibly a third. At 4 o'clock the Unique left Detroit bound for Port Huron after a down trip, which was the quickest ever made between Detroit and Port Huron by boat. When about nine miles from Belle IbIo a crash was heard by the passengers to proceed from tho boiler room which was fol lowed by clouds of steam and soot, driven through the hatches with terri ble force. At the same Instant tho ex plosion occurred the deck hands saw George Robinson, of this city, an en gineer of the boat, who was sitting on the port rail, thrown overboard. Life preservers were thrown at once to him, but as the boat was going at full speed, they did not come within his reach. A boat was at once lowered and a thor ough search made for him, but he had disappeared and was given up for dead. As soon as the condition of affairs below would warrant It, the officers of the boat went below and found a crack about an Inch and a half long In one of the boiler flues. This caused the ex plosion. On the floor of the boiler room was Anthony Case, a coal passer, killed outright, and near him was John Plant, a fireman, frightfully burned. There were about forty passengers on the boat, and a rush was made for the life preservers as soon as the accident occurred, but order was quickly re stored.

TO BE PROSECUTED. Government Officials Will Proceed Against Itank Wrecker. Middletown, Pa., May 14. The prom inent wreckers of the Middletown Na tional bank are to be prosecuted. Word comes from Washington that Attorney General Olney, after consultation with United States District Attorney Ing ham, of Philadelphia, has directed the latter to proceed against ex-President Raymond and his brothers. A co-defendant will be ex-Director Campbell, a partner In the Raymond-Campbell Stove Manufacturing company, which, It Is alleged, got considerable money out of the bank. The charges against the alleged wreckers will be embezzlement and other violations of the National bank act and other Btatutes. As the bank failed a year ago this determination on the part of the gov ernment ofllclals is a great surprise to the ex-bank officials. The failure was a very bad one, but Comptroller Eckels has saved a large proportion of the as sets for depositors and other creditors. MAKE SLAVES OF NEGROES.
