George A. Lindoerfcr, mention of whose trouble was made in Saturday's STAK, is still in jail at Norwalk. Attorney Jesse Vickery, of Bellevue, who was retained by Liudoerfer. appeared before Judge Wildman Saturday and Succeeded in having his bail reduced to $500. He was bound over to common pleas court by Mayor Lieber of Bellevue, iu the sum of fSOO.

J. C. Morrow, of Bellevue, in whose store Lindoerfer passed the order, swore out the warrant for the arrest. Sheriff George H. Gates, of Huron county, was in the city yesterday and subpocnted a number of witnesses.

Lindoerfer will appear before the grand jury tomorrow. Mr. Lindoerfer has a number of friends here who are disposed to be lenient with him. They attribute his downfall to playing the "bucket shop," and say that he was urged to desist. They cannot account for his actions, except to say that he was engrossed in the belief that he would some day make his fortune, that he was led to do things which any sane man would have known to be ruinous.

They hope to see him get through all right. Lindoerfer's position in the B. O. division freight office has not yet been filled. CONGRESSMAN NORTON.

the Able Representative Vill Address Meeting- Tomorrow Night. Hon. James A. Norton will speak in this city tomorrow night at Lea's Hall on Market street. This is to be the second Democratic meeting in the county and great enthusiasm has already been manifested.

Dr. Norton is so well known as a brilliant and able speaker and as a congressman who has looked after the affairs of this district, that citizens, regardless of party, will want to hear him. The meeting will be a rons- iiig one. Mr. Norton arrived in the city this morning, coming from his home in Tiffin, and tonight will address a big meeting in Vermillion.

On Wednesday evening he will speak in Huron. Stolen Wheel Recovered. A Kensington wheel which was stolen from Miss Ethel Schweinfnrth last April was found in the marsh east of the city Saturday by William Lundy of West Huron, who was hunting. Th wheel was badly rusted, but can be pu in good shape. It will be rememberec that about a month after the wheel was stolen the toolbag was found and Fred Hartwig, who was employed on the Hiude farm, was arrested on the charge of stealing the wheel.

He was dis charged by the mayor for lack of evi deuce against him. Prominent Young- People to Marry. Judge Goodwin issued a marriage license this morning to Dr. Chas. A.

jJeWitt and Miss Kathryu A. Ben- schoteu. The parties are well known and popular young people residing at Ogoutz in the eastern part of the county. Miss Benschoten is the daughter of Dr. Beuschoten one of Erie county's best known citizens.

us mm Died Suddenly At 10 Last Nlfbt, O'clock Stricken with Heart Disease la the Horn. Inr-Kespected Citizen art Oflkiai- Fvneral conducted by F. and A. M. Again has death entered onr midst and called one of onr oldest and respected citizens.

Without warning and with a suddenness that has filled the hearts of his friends with sadness and sorrow, Julius Erckeuer passed away. A man whom all knew and honored, who was a good citizen and an efficient public official, was lost, toSaudusky when this good man passed away. Mr. Erckener was one of the best known German citizens in Saudnsky. He was a native of Germany but very early in life he left his mother country and came to Sandnsky.

For nearly half a century, with but few absences for any extended time, he has made his resP deuce here and during this time has lived a life so upright and above reproach, that he has attracted to himself a wide circle of friends who respected and Although he bad reached the advanced age of 71-years he was active far beyond what might be expected of a man of his age, and was, up to the time of his death, energetic in the affairs of life. When he first came to this city in 1849 he was engaged in the dry goods business. After a few years he returned to Germany for a short time, and on bis return to city, he opened a book store and agency for ocean steamship companies. He was engaged in this business up to the time of his election as justice of the peace. He had filled this position for a number of years and was a candidate for reelection on the Eepublican ticket.

The deceased leaves a wife, one son residing in Texas, and three daughters, two of whom live in Cleveland, the other, Miss Augusta, being a teacher in our High school. For some years Mr Erckner has lived apart from his family' WALL STREET DREAM. Talk About the L. E. W.

Said to Be Unfounded. The man who wrote tho recent story that is alleged to have emanated from Wall street, announcing in connection with the fact that L. E. W- stock had slumped, that the road was in poor physical condition, certainly knew as much about the physical condition of the L. as do the heathen Chinese.

The road never was in better condition than it is now, notwithstanding the joke abont the railroad men who employed on it being "rough riders." Almost the entire main Hue from Sandusky, to Peoria, has been well ballasted during tho past two or three years, and on the western divisions and I most of the Saudnsky division, the wooden trestles and bridges have been replaced by either stone arches or steel structures. The rolling stock is also in excellent condition, and the road is doing a good Times. Another Divorce Granted. At the noon hour today Judge Hull granted a divorce to Ada F. Reeley from Frederick Reeley.

Mrs. Reeley was also given the custody of two minor children. The parties were married in December, 188T, bnt their married life has been a failure. The ground of divorce was habitual drunkenness. No defense was interposed.

FOR SALE BY PERSONS IRVINE. Try mr Cannel coal. DAW KirifZ, Mgr. At the Nielsen This Week. "A Celebrated Case," by tho Parkinson-Roth company at the opora house last night, is prononnrcd by all who witnessed it to be by far the best work yet given by that strong company.

Miss Roth, Mr. Parkinion and Mr. Hoey added new lanrelt ti their capable and ttrong dramatic --Hartford Oltj News. Not So Many Cigar Factories. It is a fact noted by revenue officers that there are not so many cigar factories in Sandnsky in the winter as the summer.

This is largely due to the summer resort feature; as the crowds of excursionists induce manufacturers to locate temporarily during the summer. The number has been considerably duced since the Point closed. living in his apartments in connection with his office, at 114 Columbus avenue. It was here that his death occurred at 10 o'clock last night. He was well on Saturday evening and was out on the street, chatting cheerfully with his friends.

On Sunday morning he was stricken with heart disease, to which he has been subject for some years, and at 10 o'clock last night passed away. Mr. Erckener's long connection with the business and public affairs of this city, had given him an acquaintance as large perhaps, as any man in the city. Always honorable, upright and strictly ho nest in his dealings, he won tne re-, spect of his'fellow men, and although he has now passed to the great unknown and is beyond the cares and responsibilities of earthly affairs, his memory will long remain in the minds of all who knew him. The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:80 o'clack at the Masonic Temple.

The services will be conducted jointly by Science and Perseverance lodges, F. A. M. The remains will lie in state from. 10 to 12 o'clock in the temple, when his friends will be' given a last opportunity to view the remains of an honored citizen.

ALONG THE WHARVES. The sarulsucker Mary H. was raised late Saturday afternoon, and now lies at the B. O. in good condition.

Shook! either wan win, he will have; plenty to do all winter, as many have been issued to meet the winner.

Kennedy and Curley Supples will meet in a preliminary bont. "Curry" Foley Is Dead. Charles J. Foley, sometimes called "Curry" Foley, a well known ball player about 20 years ago, was buried at Boston yesterday. He first played with the old Star club of Boston which had iu its ranks such men as John Morrill, "Chub" Sullivan, Al MeKiunon and Lew Brown.

In 1875 Foley joined the Lowell club, which won the championship after a sharp contest. "Curry" also played with Lowell in '76, '77 and '78, leading the club in batting in '76 and '78. After winning the New England championship they played a series of 12 games with the champion Bostons and each won six. They then beat the St. Louis club 8 to 0 and 3 to 1.

Chicago and Louisville also went down before them. They played a 14-iuning game with Indianapolis that season, the latter winning by 1 to 0. Foley always pitched for Lewell. sometimes five and six times a week. So it can be seen that the pitchers in those days had no such thing as a snap.

"Curry" joined the Bostons in 1879, and he and Bond did the pitching. He led Boston in batting in issO, playing first base and pitching. Foley has not played since 1883. Tommy Ryan Threw up the Sponge. Mattie Matthews of Brooklyn defeated Tommy Ryan of Philadelphia Friday night in the thirteenth round of what was to be a 25-ronnd affair at catch weights.

While Ryan did some clever work and landed several hard blows in the seventh round, bringing Mattie to his knees, in the tenth round Matthews hooked his left heavily on the jaw and smashed it to the stomach O. with pig iron. Whaleback barge 127 went out light from the B. O. yesterday.

Wm. W. Howard returned Saturday evening from Chclsie, where he has enjoyed an outing of hunting and Ishing. Ryan was very tired when the thirteenth round began and was punished severely. In Toledo Yachting Circles.

Yachtsmen of this city should not forget that the yacht Alice Enright holds a championship flag that was won from the famous yacht Fauchon. It will be remembered that there were three sweepstake races. In the first the Fanchon and Enright of Toledo and Sylvia of Detroit contested. The Fanchon won the race in remarkably fast time. In the next race the Fanchon, Enright and Scud of Toledo and the Sylvia, a new boat, entered.

The third race, in which the Fanchon and Enright sailed, the Enright won. She holds the championship flag won at that time.and it would bo abont the right thing for yachtsmen who have speedy yachts to try to wrest this flag from the Enright. The Josephine, Scud, Oberton, Viking and other yachts might enter, which would make a very exciting race. With the time allowance, the Viking would make the rest of the yachts hustle. It would revive yachting to a greater extent than anything else that could be done.

Fitz Is the Father of a Baby Girl. Bob Fitzsimmons is more exnltingly confident now that he whip any other man in the world than he was ever before. Fitz "has his wish" and is the father of a girl baby. In spite of the baby's sex Fitzsimmons would be willing to match her against any other baby in the world. The champion was in Philadelphia when he received a dispatch from the Bartholdi hotel in New York that he was a father and that it was a 12-pound girl.

The Sandusky football team, accotn- panied by a number of faithful ones, went to Norwalk Saturday, and won their first game of the season. It was a pretty contest, and the Sandusky boys won by pluck and quick work, as they averaged considerable lighter than the Norwalk boys. Sandnsky was not a success at bucking the line, and made all her gains, as well as her score by good runs and end plays. The first touch-down was made by Schultz by a pretty end run, and later Krupp repeated the play. This time, Bogart kicked goal, thus netting 1 1 points for Saudusky.

Norwalk made one touchdown and kicked goal, giving her 6 points, It is claimed that the umpire, either purposely or carelessly failed to see that the ball was pushed forward by the Norwalk players after it was "down." The line-up was as Seventh Onto District Convention W. R. C. In Sandusky NOT. 2.
