LION CAUSES A PAMC.
Romeo Escape's from Ilia Tags In New
York and There Is a Wild Rush-German
Band Drops Instruments and Runs,
New York, Aug. 8. Romeo, one of the
performing lions at Bentley's old-fashioned
circus, exhibiting at Ninety-ninth
street and First avenue, escaped Mon
day and created a panic among the
Z.OUO persons witnessing the perform
ance. The escape toook place shortly
before 5 o'clock. Colonel Daniel Boono
with hK four Hons were the last on
the programme. The lions had entered
the stesl circular cage from the side by
means of a small boarded door, leading
to the wagons In which the lions live.
Colonel Boone had put the Hons
through the Irregular performance and
was about to bring one act to a close,
whan he noticed that the younger Hons,
Commodore and Pompeii, began to an
noy Romeo, th a older Hon. by biting his
limbs. Romeo objected to this sort of
treatment and Jumping down from hla
tool made for the wagon through the
narrow door and the boarded entrance.
The door had in some way been closed.
Romeo, however, did not notice that
until he ran pell mell Into the door.
Becoming enraged, he growled and be
gan to atrlke the wooden panels of the
wagon. He did no further damage,
however,' than to dig hla claws half an
Inch Into the woodwork. Finding that
lie could not get Into the wagon he
turned around quickly to re-enter the
ateel cage, when his tall whisked, the
steal gate closed, and he stood In the
narrow three-foot boarded entrance
howling with rage.
In the meanwhile the people took In
at a glance the situation, and of one ac
cord rushed across the ring Into the
atreet, shouting and yelling. Children
fell down on the ground under the seats
and: no one stopped to pick them up.
The wondir Is that there was not a
hundred or more killed outright. By
this time the cry "Hon escaped" had
reached the street and everybody
rushed away from the scene. '
The Hon, In the meantime, finding
himself In close quarters, began pawing
the board on either side of him and
Anally managed to climb to the top of
-f the circus wagon, and there he stood
I surveying the fleeing people. Directly
I underneath him sat the band of Oer-
man musicians, who had been playing
for dear life up to this point. When
I they looked UP and saw Mr. Lion ready
I to spring on them they dropped their
I Instruments and rushed from the tent.
VAs soon as the Hon reached the top of
the cage Colonel Boone called the circus

'everything, they could pick up. They

Michael Kelley. of Mud Kow, had been
like unto a small cyclone In his par

accomplished everything he could in

Alderman C. C. Donovan and swore out
a warrant; it was placed In Patrolman
Boland's hands, but he decided to se

an ax.
A message was sent to Chief of Police

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
(Under this heading short letters of In
terest will be published when accompa
nied, for publication, by the writer's
name. The Tribune will not bo held re
sponsible for opinions here expressed.)
IS DF.FKNSEOF THE CHINESE.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: I did not expect so soon to write
you again, but I cannot resist It on ac
count of a statement In an editorial this
morning, headed "Missionary Work in
China." With regard to the first part of
the article I only say you are looking at
the ma'tter from a worldly point of view,
while those who feel called of God, and
who are endeavoring to carry out our
Savior's last command, as contained In
Matifhew, xxvlll, 19, 20, are looking at the
matter from the Bible point of view.
a the second paragraph of your article
you say, "It Is well known that not one
out of a hundred of professed Chinese
convents !n this country or In the Flow
ery Kingdom are really in earnest In their
profession of .Christianity. As a general
thing they are simply In the business for
earthly rewards, and at home are ready
si any time to emphaclze their return to
Joss by cutting the missionary's throat."
This I emphatically deny. It may be true
that here and there In this country a
Chinaman has mude a profession of Chris
tianity for earthly rewards. Are there no
white men who have done so? But In an
swer to your statement I affirm that
where Chinamen become Christians either
In this lamd or In their own, the great ma
jority of them live good Christian lives,
as missionaries of all denominations as
sure us, and as some Influential travelers
also affirm, and they tell what they have
seen and known. As for the "rewards"
you speak of, It means here persecution
or ostracism, or both, by their own coun
trymen, and In China It means. In very
many cases, persecution of the Individual
convert by his own family and acquaint
ances, sometimes even to the death, es
pecially In the case of minors, or complete
separation of all family ties from older
people. I have heard and read of native
Christians protecting missionaries at the
risk of their own lives and sometimes
with the loss of life, but never do I re
member hearing of native converts turn
ing against the missionary.
What shall be done for the protection of
missionaries Is a matter for the govern
ments of the civilized world to arrange
and enforce If need be, for they ought to
be protected as well as those who go for
earthly gain. Richard Hiorns.

CLYPfflWirSCEAR LIGHT
Fraud Is Alleged U the Letting Out
of Contracts.
AX INJUNCTION IS GRANTED
Clalau That Contrasts Wars Not Awarded
to Lowest Biddor-Borough Cnaneil
Enjoined from Pay lag Any
Money on the Contrasts.
There will be a hearing In open court
next Monday at 9 a. m. In the equity
suit where a preliminary Injunction
waa yesterday granted restraining and
enjoining the borough council of Oly
phant from making any further pay
ments on the contracts iwlth the Scran
ton Supply and Machinery company
and the General Electric Light com
pany for an electric light plant for the
borough.
The suit was yesterday (brought by J.
M. Schenck, Domlnlck Howard, and
Richard J. Gallagher, accompanied by
an affidavit from Joseph A. Dolphin in
which he says the contracts for the
new plant were made through fraud.
The petition for an Injunction com
plains that the iborough council did not
by any resolution or ordinance accept
the bid of the Electric Light com
pany or that of the Supply and Machin
ery company. Yet the contracts have
been let to these two companies, whose
bids are $3,000 higher than the other
bidders, and who In addition to the
price of the contract are to receive the
dynamo, engines, piping, etc., of the
present plant of the borough.
The property so given away, It Is
claimed. Is worth $3,000. The bids are
given In the bill of complaint as fol
lows: For dynamos General Electric
company, $3,175; Onondago Dynamo
company, $2,030. For engines, boilers,
etc. Scranton Supply and Machinery
company, $7,880; B. W. faine & Son,
$6,850.
What the Petition Recites.
The petition further recites that pre
vious to the advertisement for bids
the borough was In possession of a val
uable electric light plant, and the bill
contends that this has been disposed
of by giving it to the Scranton Supply
and Machinery company and the Gen
eral Electric company. The plaintiffs
claim that no ordinance has been passed
authorizing the contracts, nor for the
Issue and sale of bonds, nor has any
such action been aproved of by the bur
gess. The, council caused specifications for
the engines, boilers and piping adver
tised for to be prepared by Ellis Simp
son, an agent and employe of the Scran
ton Supply and 'Machinery company,
one of the bidders, says the petition,
and that such specifications were so
prepared as to call for such material
as could only be furnished by said com
pany, thus preventing actual competi
tion, and constituting a fraud upon the
citizens and taxpayers of the borough.
In pursuance of such fraudulent speci
fications the bid of the Scranton Sup
ply and Machinery company was large
ly In excess of the real value of the ma
terial proposed to be furnished, and If
the borough authorities are allowed to
execute and carry out contracts for said
material It will result In great loss and
damage and expensive litigation.
Hearing on Monday.
I. H. Burns and T. J. Duggan are at
torneys for the plaintiff. The defend
ants must be served with a copy of
the complaint and appear to make an
swer next 'Monday morning at 9 o'clock.
