A woman was overheard talking in the grand stand yesterday afternoon at the ball park during one of the few Interims when any one person could bo heard at all. Sho was murmuring against the deception practiced by the association. "George!" sho complained; ns she pulled at his coat whon ho was about to climb on the seat and root. "George Jlnnlwinks! I thought you said Fltz Eimmons was going to play ball. lie isn't a doing anything of the kind. He's over thero In a. camn playing bean bags or something1 with a man In a bathing suit. George Jlnnlwinks, I'd like to know what you mean by fooling me up here to see Fltzsimmons throw a ball." "I never ald anything of the kind," answered George. "Now, Sarah Kllen, do be still. Everybody Is looking at us. Why don't you read the papers?" 'Head the papers!" tnlffed Mrs. Jlnnlwinks. I'd like to know what one Is to make out from reading the papers. 'Spar four rounds,' 'cow puncher,' 'put Cor bett to sleep, now that tells a lot, doesn't It? I wanted to see him play ball." "H'm!" she went on when the boxing exhibition began. "Is that our Chief Hlckey with the other pair of mittens? Should think he'd be ashamed of him self. Do you s'pose Fltz will knock him out? Who'l run to fires then as if the Old Boy was after him, I'd like to know?" "Whee e! Gracious! See him land that left hander!" She yelled just then and her husband forgot to watch tho ling performance as he turned and re garded his wife with silent horror be fore ejaculating. "Great Scott, Sarah Ellen! "What arc you saying? Where did a wife of mine learn to talk like that!" Then he cast a sad, lingering look at tho two figures nobbing around In front and remarked empath'etlcally. "I guess we'll go home. 1 don't think this Is the place for wo man anyway." and as they disappeared out of the door Mrs. Jlnlwlnks remon trated In an earnest tone: "And he never played Dags, nor umpired nor anything what a swindle, and he doesn't begin to look as wealthy ns John L. Sullivan!" The only possible acquisition, unless it might bo a Bengal tiger or a mess of escaped rattlesnakes, which Is needed to make the dally life of the Scranton pedestrian utterly wretched, Is the horseless carriage and now we are to have that, being already In possession of the most reckless bicycle riders, drivers of speedy horses, erratic trolley cars and grade crossings, not to men tion a United States mall wagon and Chief Hlckey.

It Was Loaded with Iron Billets and Did Some Damage at Scranton Street Crossing. The break-down of a box car heavily loaded with iron billets nt the Scran ton street crossing on the Delaware, Lackawanna and AVestern Bloomsburg division yesterday afternoon resulted in a tearing up of the. tracks for a dis tance of about seventy-five yards. The accident happened at 1.30 o'clock and the track was blocked for a number of hours afterward. No one was hurt. Engine No. CO was pulling a freight train bound for Mlnooka and when a few yards north of the crossing the front truck of one of the box cars In the middle of the train became de tached. The swerve of the curve at that point forced the truck off the track. The train at the time was go ing at about fifteen miles nn hour and the broken truck cut across the board crossing and pounded nlong on the ties, the wheels cutting deep ridges In the wood and earth. Only a few yards had been traversed when the disabled truck pulled the rear truck of the car ahead fiom the track. The contour of the curve brought both trucks toward tho next track and the west wheels were grazing along the east rail. The body if both box cars, fortunately, did not fall. After the train was brought to a standstill the wreck car was quickly on tho scene and the disabled cars switched for the day. The damage done by tho heavy wheels consisted only of ruts In the earth be tween the tracks. When the train stopped the car wheels were Imbedded In the earth up to the axles. NEITHER COUNCIL MET. Dob ritzsimmous Ilrenks Up tho Ses sions oftlic City Fathers. There were Just enough councllmen nt Laurel Hill park last night to leave both branches without a quorum.

EIQHT HOURS FOR A DAY'S WORK Thnt Will lie thu Concession the l'nintcrs nnd Docorntors' Union nnd Oilier Organizations Alllllntcd with tho llulldlnu Trade's Council Mill Ask for in tho Sprlng'-An Ap peal Wiu iMndc Tor Money Tor tlio Striking .Miners. The mass meeting of tho painters, paper hangers nnd decorators In Mul ler's hall last night brought out ns Its feature the fact that tho Building Trades union of this city are already preparing to make a stand for tho eight hour day in thl3 city next spring, and from tho remarks of the speuker of the evening, J. H. Sullivan, of Mass achusets, It may bo inferred that the combined unions will use every Influ ence to bring about the fewer hours for working. Mr. Sullivan Is general president of the Painters' union, and he came hero to address and assist particularly unions 118 and 218, of this city. His home Is in Springfield, Mass., but his business headquarters arc In Balti more. Another Interesting number on the programme last nlsht was th'o efforts of two representatives of the striking miners nt Pittsburg to collect funds to continue the struggle. These men are Adam Fox and W. W. Plaster er. The latter made a striking appeal for help. Mil. THOMAS WAS CHAIRMAN. The meeting was not largely attend ed, Philip II. Thomas, the first speak er, ntttibuted tho paucity to the "dog fight In Laurel Hill park." Mr. Thom as was Introduced by the chairman of the evening. Beforo conclud ing lils Bpeech, Mr. Thomas gave his labor ticket a boom. He paid ho wasn't going to introduce party poli tics, "but you all know," he said, "that the government of this city Is rotten." There were murmurs of assent In tho audience. "And," he concluded, "now Is an elegant opportunity to put men on our school board who will not dis criminate against the working man, and men in councils who will look after our Interests." Peter Holton also spoke. He advo cated union and bewailed the fact that the non-union men reap Just as fully the benefits of a successful strike as do the union men. General President Sullivan was greeted with applause. Ho began at first to show that every legislation of benefit to the worklngman originated In tho assembly rooms of unions. In commenting on Mr. Thomas' political Ideas, President Sullivan told a story of a labor man who ran for office and received 2S out of 2.S00 labor votes. This dampening illustration ended the subject for the night. EIGHT-HOUR MOVEMENT. President Sullivan then made his first reference to the promised fight for eight hours In this city. Ho said: "The carpenters are already making prepar ation for It. I learn that the carpen ters have 400 men enrolled. This is two thirds of their number In this city. But two-thirds can't win," argued Presi dent Sullivan: "you must be united and every man must be at the front." Con tinuing: "The time has come for you to make the demand. If you don't stand now the result will bo that In the spring they will either make a reduc tion in your wages or shove another hour onto you. Tho time Is ripe for the demand." In another part of his speech Presi dent Sullivan further encouraged tho painters to stand out when the time comes for the eight-hour day, "and," re said, "if It becomes necessary the funds of the national organization will be placed at your disposal." This re mark was met with deafening cheers and clapping of hands. President Sullivan's speech' was In teresting throughout, lie talked prin cipally ot matters concerning the paint ers' trade. His visit to Scranton was the beginning of a tour through the western states In the Interest of the organization. APPEAL FOR MINERS. After President Sullivan had con cluded Mr. Plasterer.the miners' rep resentative, was introduced. He is a grey-hatred, Infirm old man, and in speaking has a style of his own. Ills opening remarks wero in the line of a tribute, to union. He then told how he had worked in the mines since he was live years old. at which age ho was taken In on his brother's back. The aged champions' direct remarks on the Pittsburg strike were Interest ing. He eald: "We are on strike out there It Is a complicated strike: when wo first came out we struck for bread butter was out of the question. Now we are fighting not even for bread, but for liberty." He referred to the sheriff as "that Insignificant tool," and de preciated the fact that the working men had to pay taxes for his salary. He though that "American citizen" did not mean much to the working men. He was not collecting for the miners only, ho said. The women and children who do not live In the camp need the money most. Ho started out for tho women, but It seems now thitt some of tho money must bo given to the men. Tho speaker told several Incidents of the strike. The miners were enjoined from entering the camp and the women suld, "Well, thero Is no injunction against us: wo will go." The audl enco cheered. "But." he said, "what cn wo do when there are a, gang of men hanging around the court houso waiting to bo appointed deputies. Such men ns these we could not truBt with mir camp. Wo must protect our wo men." In concluding he made an ap peal for money. The few piesent contributed the sum of $1.30, which was handed over. Mr. Plasterer said that this made $9D which has been sent to Pittsburg slnoo ho Is In tho city. He will stay hero until after the pays at th'e mines. FREE SEATS FOR LADIES.

LABOR DAY DEMONSTRATION. Committee of Ccntrnl Labor Union l'rcpnrlng for It. Labor Day In this city will be fitting ly celebrated on Monday, Sept. C, by a grand pnrade nnd demonstrntlon.whlch will be folio ed by a picnic and games nt Laurel Hill park. The affair will bo under the auspices of tho Central Labor union, which has had a committee out for several weeks, and has completed all arrnngements for the event. Every labor organization In the Jurisdiction of the Ccntrnl Labor union has con sented to turn out on that day. Prizes have been offered as follows: First prize Organization with largest number of members In line. Second prize Organization making best nppennnce. Third prize Oldest organization In lino. Fourth prize Youngest organization In line. The arrangements committee wish It understood by the merchants that they have not authorized any person to solicit anything for this organization who have not duly accredited creden tials bearing the seal of tho union and the signatures of the proper olllcers. This is mentioned that merchants nnd others In this vicinity, who might feel Inclined to contribute toward defray ing a portion of tho expense of the demonstration, may know that any thing given to unauthorized persons will be of no benefit to the Central Labor union. It has come to the notice of the organization that some person Is soliciting advertisements from the merchants for an official programme for that day nnd to those the Central Labor union desire to say that It has no knowledge of any such programme. The committee having the demonstra tion In charge Is composed of: J. H. MeNulty, J. P. Everett, Fred. Haas, Johi. Kelly, John It. Farr, Thomas Mouaghan, William O'Connell, Nelson G. Teets, Joseph Tlerney and M. D. Flaherty. A REAL CLAM BAKE. It Was Enjoyed by a Number of Railroad Alcti and Their Friends at Lake Poyntcllc. Seldom have the picnic grounds at Lake Poyntelle contnlned a larger and never a better satisfied throng of merry-makers than attended yesterday the annunl outing and clambake of the George W. West division, No. 468, Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. There were fifteen cOachcs-ful of ex cursionists who came by rail and as many more who drove In from the sur rounding country, making In all 1,000 participants In the appetizing event. It was a clam-bake such as Scran tonlans wot little of. Prepared under the direction of a past master in the art, Ward Edwards, of Middletown, N. Y,, an orielnal down Easterner who had learned the knack on the shores of old Rhode Island, It was a revelation to those who had never made the ac quaintance of the real New England article. In addition to clams of prime flavor steamed on a three-foot bed of heated stones there were steamed blue fish, succulent toasting ears, sweet potatoes done to the limit, and chicken fit to set before a king. These constit uents aro not novel, but the perfection of their preparation gave a zest to this bake such as has not previously been known In these parts. In addition to the bake, tho Mozart band, of Carbon dale, furnished music for the dancers in the pavilion and there was the usual variety of refreshment booths and amusement purveyors. The morning specla'i left Scranton on the Ontailo and Western at 7.30 o'clock, with Conductor Galland and Frank Collins in charge. The return was made at 7.30 p. m. Among the prominent railroad men present at the bake were G. W. West, ot Middletown, N. Y., superintendent of motive power; George O'Nell, general foreman, and C. H. Hopkins, superintendent, of Middle town; T. Flltcroft, division passenger and freight agent, of Scranton; Frank Smith, general coal agent; Jack Cole, trainmaster, and Frank Stottcnger, foreman, of Mayfleld, all officials of the Ontario and Western, and Superintend ent G. W. Dowe and Master Mechanic Stoddard, of tho Erie. The excursion was by far the most successful yet run by tho George W. West division and for much of this success credit is due to the committee on arrangements, consisting of Moses Meyers, chairman; W. II. Kenney, J. M. Peck, Oscar Hudson and W. Wol cott. Next year, with the memory of this bake as a standing advertisement, the attendance is likely to be doubled. THE NEXT QREAT EVENT. Strong Prospect Tlint n Tcrrlblo War Will Soon lingo in India. All Indications point to a religious war in India; therefore tho comprehen sive article on this subject which will be a feature of next Sunday's Philadel phia "Press" (August 20), will Interest everybody. Not less attractive, though In an entirely different line, will be the story of the antics nnd ambitions of young Garrett A. Hobart, tho bright son of tho vice-president of tho United States. Next Sunday's "Press" will also tell exclusively how some North Carolinians have grown rich by de frauding the government; a wonderful floating palace will be described, and the first Information given of a marine discovery of the highest Importance. Other features will be numerous. It Is well to bear In mind that "Tho Sunday Press" Is not l,y one of the largest and best illustl cd papers In the country, but that, alio there Is entertainment and Instru lion In every page, nothing which can offend, or Is objectionable In any sense, Is admitted to Its columns. "The Sunday Press" is always the greatest home Sunday pa per. Order tho next Issue today, PRICE OF ELECTRIC LIGHT REDUCED. Knbiirban Klcctrlc Light Company Lowers tho Itntn Per Lamp Hour.

WIDOW WANTS SHARE OF JORDAN ESTATE Alleges Tbat There Was a Conveyance. Fraudulent SUIT INVOLVING MANY THOUSANDS Mrs. Julia Jordnn, Tor llorsolf nnd Infant Dnnghtcr, Begins tut Action Agnlnst Ilov. .Inmes P. Jordnn, Son by n 1'ormor Wllo, ofllcr I)cccne'd Huftbnml to Recover tho JCstnto Which Sho Avers Was Transferred to Deprive Her ol Her Just Kxpec tntlons. A fight for tho estate of tho lato Patrick Jordan was yesterday begun in equity court. The plaintiffs are Julia Jot dan and Anna Jordan, widow nnd child respectively of the deceased, and tho defendant is Rev. James P. Jordan, of Rendham, one of tho four sons of Patrick Jordnn by a former wife. In tho paper book filed by the plain tiffs' attorneys, James J. O'Malley and M. J. Martin, it is stated that Julia Jordan was married to Patrick Jor dan April 2!), 189(5, at St. Peter's cath edral, and Immediately after marrlago they commenced living together as man and wife, continuing In this relation until the time of the husband's death, August C, 1897. In the year 195 and at divers other times, tho declaration reads, Patrick Jordan made frequent and often re peated overtures of marriage to Julia Jordan, all of which she declined on account of his advanced years and in firm condition of body and health. Ho became lnslstant In his repeated pro posals, and after representing nnd pro ing to her that he was worth between fifty and sixty thousand dollars, and promising her that If she should marry hel he would provide well for her In his will and also for any children that might come of the union, she consented to the marriage. OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES. She also avers that other circum stances moved her to accept him, one that ho wanted to make a home for himself; another that he protested the greatest love and affection for her. After narrating that her husband had frequently told her he would make a much more liberal provision for her than was allowed by the laws of the state, sho goes on to say that Patrick Jordan was Induced by his sons, who were displeased at his proposed mar riage, to secretly make a conveyance of all his property to his son James, for the evident purpose of defrauding his Intended wife out of her just ex-. pectations. Then tho bill goes on to recite tho particulars of the transfer, which, ac cording to tne records, was made on April 2, 1896, twenty-seven days before the marriage. The property conveyed wob four lots in the borough of Oly phant and the St. Cloud hotel property, corner of Wyoming avenue and Lin den street, which, it Is alleged, was all the real estate he owned. Mrs. Jordan alleges she did not learn of the conveyance until a week beforo her husband's death, when ho was in his last Illness. She alleges that the consideration recited In the deed, "the sum of Jl lawful money of the United States," never passed between the par ties. She also says that up to the time of his last Illness her husband con trolled the properties In question, col lected the rents from the tenants and using the same for the maintenance of his family. WHAT HE LEFT HER. Thero was $3,000 insurance on her husband's life, she says, but this is made payable to some one besides her. The only thing he left her was about $200 worth of furniture and a certain Indenture of mortgage assigned to her to secure the payment of $1,300. Court Is petitioned to restrain the defendant from transferring or encum bering the real estate which he holds, nnd Issue a decree declaring null and void the deed and conveyance.
