About 10 o'clock last night tho Villa Nova football eleven urrlved In this city, coining on the Delaware, Lack nwanna and Western railroad. Thla afternoon they will meet the St. Thomas college eleven. Villa Nova has an excellent record this season, having played an exceed ingly strong game, under the guidance of Captain Richard Nallln and Man nger M. V. Munley, the former ot whom Is a Scranton boy, and the lat ter from Avoca. Early In the season tho team nrt Lafayette and was de feated by a score of 13 to 0.- This score Is surprisingly small when the fact is considered that Lafayette has ulso de feated the elevens representing tho I'nherslty of Pennsylvania and Cor nell, and probably baa the strongest team that ever strode the eastern grld ln.11, wearing the Lafayette colors. In that same game remarkable work was done by Joe Wolf. Villa Nova's quartor-back, and the same aggressive and brainy player that captained the champion St. Thomas team of last year. St. Thomas, however, does not ex poet to bo overwhelmed either by tho record or playing of tho Villa Nova boys. The local team will be made up of an exceedingly fast, strong aggrega tion of men, and while they will prob ably be outpointed In tho scientific part of tho game. It is moie than likely that the St. Thomas weight and brawn will make itself felt before the second half is over. In all events the game will prove an Interesting one from tho spectators' point of view, nnd ought to draw a big crowd to the grounds. A great crowd was present at this Delaware and Hudson depot last night to welcome the Villa Nova football eleven, as it got off the train. All of St. Thomas college team was there, and the din. produced by yells and horn blowing, was Rotr.xjhlpg tremen dous. Th. college bo3 aro a rugged, sturdy looking orowd and will prob ably give St. Thu... '- hardest flrflu that the latter has yet gonr up against. Captain Nallln, when spoken to by a Tribune man, said that his men were not Ir. tho best of condition, as two or threu of the players are inlured, and the tram has been out of nractlcs for ,sorai time. Eighteen men, however, cam" along, and the team which will go into the field this afternoon will be far from a weak one. He spoke In ji very modest manner of the eleven and its expectations) for this afternoon's result. After the St. Thomas boys had howled themselves hoarse, by vocifer ously cheering for both their team nnd tho visiting eleven, they indulged In a torch-light procession t.ncl continued to make things llcly for some time. This afternoon's; line-up will probably be ap. follows: Villa Nova. St. Thomas.

LITIGATION OVER THE CROSSING DELAWARE AND HUDSON nAS APPEALED TO COURTS. Judge , Edwards Yesterday Granted nn Injunction Restraining1 tho City from Interfering with the Com pany in Maintaining Its Fenco on tho Easterly Side of Their Tracks at Poplar Street, and from Tearing Up tho Plnnks Laid by tho City at the Crossing. Possession of the Poplar street cross ing has again chnnged hands. On motion of Jessup & Jcssup, tho Delaware nnd Hudson company's at torneys, Judge Edwards yesterday, granted nn injunction restraining tho city from Interfering with tho com pany in maintaining Us fenco on the easterly side of. the tracks, shutting In thu crossing, and from preventing the company from tearing up the planking which the city has laid over tho tracks nt tho crossing. City Solicitor Vosburg vigorously op posed the motion, but Judge Edwards said that under the statement of tho company, as contained in its nfildavlU, he could not refuse tho preliminary In junction. The company's statement goes on to relate that prior to 183S tho Lackawan na Iron nnd Coal company owned tho land In which Popular street Is now comprised, and that Poplar street was duly plotted on its maps. Tho Lackawanna Iron nnd Coal com pany also owned the Joshua Grlllln tract extending along the Lackawanna river and easterly to the town plot before mentioned, which contained Poplar street. An extension of Poplar street wns plotted on the maps of this latter trnct. In 1SG0 the Howard Coal and Iron company commenced the construction of n railroad from its mines, near Mill Creek, to connect with the Northern Coal nnd Iron company's road in Scranton, and laid out the same over the Joshua Grlflln tract. The Howartl Conl and Iron company was merged Into the Northern Coal and Iron com pany July 28, 1871. COULD NOT BE OPENED. Where the lines of the said railroad are constructed over the Joshua GiitHn trnct, over the point, which In lSti'J was plotted as Poplar street, tho ground was low and swampy, requiring ten to twelve feet of filling. Poplar street was never opened and never could be opened owing- to this embank ment. No deed for Poplar street wns ever given to tho city of Scranton, while, on the other hand, the Lackawannru Iron and Coal compnny, on April 1, 1S70, conveyed, in fee, to the Northern Coal and Iron company, all Its right, tltli? and interest In and to the land where the plotting of Poplnr street crosses the railroad. More than twenty-one years claps-1! between tho time the street was plotted nnd the time the railroad company acquired title, in fee, to the land it occupied on the Grlnln tract, Includ ing the area plotted as n crossing. Tho tenrlnr; down of the fence and laying of n plank crossing, the teat-inn; up of the crossing and reconstruction ot the fence, nre all rehVed In detail and then the plaintiff goes on to say that on tho morning ol November IS, It was ngrced between the city and the company that nothing should bo done In the matter until the following Monday, November 20, but In violation of this agreement, the mayor sent the street commissioner and n gang of men on Saturday afternoon to tear down the fence nnd relay the crossing, nnd the same was clone against forceful op. position of tho company. The city still maintains a force of policemen a,t tho crossing to prevent the company from removing the planking and ic-erectins tho fence. THE OBJECTIONS RAISED. Further, It Is alleged, that tho cross ing wns never opened by ordinance; that the permission of the company was not secured or any steps taken to reimburse It for damages; that there are now eight grade crossings over the company's tracks In Scranton: that Poplar street has no westerly terminus other than the Lackawanna river, and that there is no one beyond the track to make use of the crossing except the Scranton Bolt and Nut company. Allldavlt3 In support of these state ments were presented by John C. Ross, section foreman: C. S. Weston, presi dent of the Northern Coal and Tron company; W. 1L' Jcssup, of counsel for the company, and Charles C. Cow ell, one of the company's construction gang. Tho city's main contention Is that It accepted nnd went Into occupancy of Poplar street for Its whole length when it built n sewer thereon and under tho tracks to tho river, In U93. The rule to make the temporary In junction permanent Is returnable nt 10 o'clock, Monday morning. City Solici tor Vosbuig will file tho defenc'ant'n answer at once nnd nn effort will ba made to havo tho cas." disposed of an early as possible. Either Judgo Wood ward or Judge Halsey. of Luzerne; Judge Searle. of Montrose, or Judare Purely, of Honesdale, will bo likely to hear the case. MILITARY BALL AT ARMORY.
