THE : SCfiAimm TMBUNB TUE8DAY XfOBNIXt. JUNE ' 1 6. 1898. Neu)s 5 WEST SIDE EVENTS. Maa Wko CUlas ! Have Peraiuloa to SolkH Moacy to Assist Hiss - ia Bayiaf a Leg. A middle aged man with both legs cut off below the knee, and perambulat ing on the remaining portions, ambled Into the principal West Side business houses yesterday asking for aid. Ills mode of propulsion was seemingly ar duous, and a bloodless-face with a dis figurement near the right eye made the appeal a pitiful one. But this was not 11 that the alms-asker used for effect. In front of each man whom he- ac costed the cripple presented a regula tion typewritten paper which bore in the left corner the seal of the city of Bcranton and underneath 'several lines of reading matter was the signature of James U. Bailey, mayor, with a blue mark through the name. The Informa tion ou the paper was as follows: "This Is to certify that Louis Bchlanger, a cripple. Is authorised to solicit aid for the purpose of purchasing artificial limbs; the same Sohlanger shall not make solicitation on Lackawanna ave nue." Schlanger came to this country three years ago. While In his native land disease ate Into both feet and amputa tion was necessary. He lives on Rubin ton street. ACCUSED MEN DISCHARGED. A "peculiarity" in the disposition of the charge of highway robbery, pre ferred against Anthony Tlerney and Thomas Wlmlen by Joseph Vandower, has caused seeral spicy remarks by County Detective Leyshon, et.' al. As stated In fiaturday's Tribune, the two men assaulted Vnndower on June 1 In Budle place. The victim reported the case to the authorities and Constable Tim Jones hastened to follow up the Information. .The police officers have for the past six months been on the lookout for a gang of young men who live In Keyser Valley and who have at different times been troublesome. At torney Charles E. Olver was a rhort time ago "held up" and robbed by these embryo bandits. Last week a, passing milkman was stopped by the gang and he, also, was relieved of valuables. For these reasons the case was considered a bonansa and after a continued search Whalen and Telrney were captured. Tlerney was found In a drunken condi tion on Luzerne street and Whalen was captured by Constable Jones last Fri day night. On this same night Alder man John, of the Fourth ward, gave a partial hearing and admitted Whalen to bail In the sums of $500 for highway robbery and $200 for assault and bat tery. Tiernev was suffering from d. llrium tremens and could not be heard. The case was postponed until last night when both men were arraigned before the Fourthr ward magistrate. Van dower was present, and according to the words of his brother John, the of ficial Interpreter, the prosecutor claimed while on the stand that he was not robbed at all. It Is said tehat Van dower at a previous time swore under oath that he had been relieved of $10. That's the peculiar feriture of the case. The alderman discharged the robbery charge and the two prisoners were only asked to pay $4.50 each for the assault. County Detective Leyshone was not at the hearing. He came In afterward, however, and there were some highly sensational sentences slung around. Leyshn as plainly hot in the region of his collar. - , BALL PLATING ON STREETS.

New York, June 11 A more hopeful feeling prevailed In stock, circles today and the market broadened consider ably. There was good buying for both home and foreign account and In the late trading the shorts, who had been fighting the rise all day long, fell into line. London buying cut quite a figure In the dealings and the orders em braced a wider range than of late. Busi ness was also on a larger scale, the sales footing up 226,473 shares. The underlying cause for the Increased ac tivity, and the Improvement In prices right through the list was the Impres sion afterwards confirmed by Senator Lodge that the St. Louis convention would put a gold plank In the platform. The May statement of the bureau of statistics show an excess of exports of produce and merchandise over imports of over 950,000 and the light engagement of gold for shipment to Europe alto had a favorable Influence. The gain In prices was equal to H31 per cent, and was well distributed. A feature of the trading was the absorption of the high- priced stocks and the ease with which these Issues moved. Upon light offer ings, Lackawanna rising to 164, Lake Shore to 153. and Consolidated Oas to 158. Reports of a larger car movement at the west and southwest stimulated purchases of the grain and corn carry ing roads generally. The strength of sugar was the subject of comment in view of the reduction of 1-16 cent per pound in refined and the demoraliza tion of the market for raws abroad. The stock opened at 1204fjl3U& ex divi dend of 3 per cent, and advanced stead ily to 1234. brokers identified with lower Wall street interests being the largest buyers. The report of an extra divi dend on the common was again revived. The internationals, anthracite coalers and the specialties were all taken on tho way up and the feeling at the close was more confident than for a long time. United States Rubber shares were ex ceptionally weak and on liquidations declined 114 to 18 for the common and 1 to 794 for the preferred. The sell ing was said to be for Inside account and there was some talk of new com petition. Reading was traded In, sec ond assessment paid and held firm throughout. Net changes show ad vances of '44 per cent, outside of Rubber, which lost 1 per cent. Furnished by WILLIAM LINN AL LEN & CO., correspondents for A. P.
