This instance, only one of many, is very significant and it speaks volumes for the reputation hich the firm is establishing all over the country.

Their carriages are superior to any and all makes in the market, end of Inte they have betn making some very great improvements canopy joints, springs, cut of bodies, etc Competition in the baby carriage trade has so corrupted manufacturers that but few hold themselves to quality all they aim at is to take tbe eye; but as yet the first complaint is i be made against any of the goods turned by Jacobs Hughes.

Fourth Ths plaintiff, for a further and separate cause of action, says that ths said ndant ia indebted to him in the sum of thousand dollars ($50,000) for ths balance doe to htm, tbe said plaintiff, for work labor done by him, the said plaintiff, at instance and request of said defendant, In fall and winter of 1874, in digging trench laying pips in ths city of Rochester, for water works constructed according to tue Holly system, so-called, which sum the defendant, although often requested, baa neglected and refused to pay. Fifth And for a further and separate cause of action, the plaintiff eays that ths defendant is indebted to the plaintiff ir work labor done and materials furni-hed by plaintiff for said defendant and at its request, and for money laid out and advanced by said plaintiff for said defendant its request, ami for goods, wares aad m-r-rbandu-e sold and delivered to said de'nd'it raid plaintiff, the particulars whereof are stated in tbe schedule hereto attached and i made a part of this complaint, amounting in whole to the sum of $,150 000, which ths defendant, although often requested, has neg- lected and refused to pay. Sixth For a further cause of action the plaintiff repeats the averments in the first caut-e of action in this complaint stated, so far the same relate to the execution of said contract, and the assignment thereof, and fur- tber sa that after the making of said con- tract, and in tbe summer of 1873, he was di- rected and required by the said defendant to purchase all of the iron pips necessary to com- plete uch water works, at the market pries hereof at that ti me th at he id purchase, in accordance with such require- ment, sixteen thousand (16 IHM) tons of pipe, which thirteen thousand (13,000) tous was excess of the pipe then necessary to prosecute such work; that at the time of the purchase of such pipe tbe plaintiff anticipated a fall in tbe market price of iron and of iron pipe, and to induce ths plaintiff to purchase tbe same the defendant undertook and promised pay and make good to the plaintiff ths loss, if any, which be might sustain by purchasing such pipe, in excess ot what he then needed to complete his contract; that before became necestary to use any part of said 13,000 tons of pipe, the market price thereof bad fallen twenty dollars ($20) per ton, whereby tbe defendant became liable to pay the said plaintiff the sum of two hundred and sixty thousand dollars ($260,000) The said plaintiff further says that William Seward, as trustee, and Thomas Leigh ton individually have an interest in the claims agaimt the paid defendant, tbe city of Rochester, by virtus of assignment ot some part thereof as security for debts owing from ths plaintiff, and that tbe said plaintiff has ap plieM te said Seward and Leigh ton to became parties plaintiff in this action and that they and each of them have declined so to do. Wherefore the plaintiff prays judgment egaint-t tbe said defendant, the city of Rochester, for tbe sum of six hundred thousand, three hundred eighty -eight dollars and ninety-seven cents $000 388 97).

Ordinarily tbe trial of a case in which the defendants are charged with arson in the first degree would cause sufficient public interest to ctova the court room with spectators. Precedt-d as it has been by a murder trial, the arson cae now in court, although an important one, attracts but few auditors to tbe court room.

James and Maria Crumley, the de-lcxdants in tbe case, were recently indicted by the grand jury for an attempt to firs and destroy the hotel kept bv Patrick Burns on Mill street, and are now being tried for having commuted arson in the first degree. It is aid tt at the alleged offense was committed on the night of August 18th last, and should tbe prihoners be convicted tbe penalty of their crime will be the same as that recently imposed upon Fairbanks, viz. imprisonment for Life. Yesterday forenoon Mrs Burns, wife of ths hotel proprietor, was called as a witness and testified that previous to the tire she had heard Crumley affirm that he would get even aith burns for an al'eged iinult to bis (On (lilt 3 wife if it took bim a hfe-time to do so; tl at he would lt-ave liuras the blackest house he ever saw, aint nothing should prevent him from tbe accrmplibbnieat of his design Vfrs. burns teot fl at length, but tbe foregoing is tie gist of her teetimouy.

Tbe counsel for the defense, Mr. Armstrong, here moved for the discharge ot the male prisoner, us he thought there was no evidence by which the court could Justly bold him. Judge Kawson denied tha motion.

thought there was some evidence against Crumley in tbe ceae which should be submit ted to the jury. Mr. Armstrong then moved that tbe feniele prisoner be discharged, as ths roercton of tbe wife by the husband was erred, and therefore shs wss not responsible ror any joint attempt at crime by the two parties.

Last season's exploits did not add materially the fame of Rochester's base ball playing. before the summer was over oar repre- srntative nine had sustained so many defe tbe confidence and interest of the FoPt waned together, and it aa almost impossible induce a large enough namber of people to witness ft contest game to pay tbe current expenses.

mortifying truth was only mtd v-rt apparent at every aemot.thatour boys not have the skill to cope with the clans from the neighboring cities In the state, and an occasional victory seemed more a matter of so prise than congratulation, Rochester had formerly born a fair reputation base ball circles, and it was not very pleasant to think that she was being crowded into heck seat by cities ot far bws pretensions; bat iron present indications It would appear that she to come forward again, in better -nape than evr before Toe first prime tsntial is a judicious, experienced manager, aid this we have in the person of W. Bracket a gentleman who thoroughly understands the requirement of his position and who baa sticce fully managvd more ttaaa one club through a season of Hard engagement. He has now perfected nearly all his engage-im-nt for tbe future, and from tbe records the men engaged, it would certainly seem tbat Rochester might safely indulge in brigat hopes of carrying tbe base ball broom. l'ea men have been fully engaged and there is little doubt tnat the eleventh will sign the articles of agreement. Only one Rochester man has been secured, aoc, as Manager Brackett explains, that tbe Rochester players may not be as good, but be has never seen them play, and be makes it a point to engage none wnom he has not Been fairly earn thvir reputations on many a fiercely contested field for pitchers we are to have Purroy, of last sea-eon's Kyracoee Stars and A burns, and Butler, of Fall River.

Purroy is well known as cool, experienced, long beaded, effective pitcher, and Butler is said to have the best record of any pitcher in tbe New England states. Simmons, of the Buckeyes, and Ed Pond, the ottly Rochester man in the nine, will look to it Chat the first base does not dts grace iitelf, and two stronger men could hardly be found. Pond is a terribly hard batter and a sure catcher, and we have no doubt our city will bave every reason to feel proud ot its individual representative. as- kin, formerly of the Live Oaks and Auburn, one of tbe best catchers in the country, will play behind tha bat, and Brady, of tbe Rhode Islands, of Providence, will take care of the second bae. Madden, of tbe Syracuse Stars, will play third base, and Fulmer, of the Louis-villea, tbe only one whose engagement is not sure, will probably play short stop Tipper, of the Live Oaks and Stars, is justly considered the best left-fielder in the country, in or out of the league, and in that position macti is expected ot him during the seasfm.

Luff, of the Memphis club, will play center-field, and Shatiuck, of the Live Oaks and Auburn, will cover right field, both good men and fctrong. If with the above talent Rochester does not make a creditable appearance on tbe base ball diamond next summer it wilt be strange ir deed, but we are very confident that tbe nine will answer all and more than the expectations of its most sanguine backers. sehtencbo.

About half past 10 o'clock District-attorney Raines moved tbe court that the sentence of the law upon Alden C.

When the clerk was about to swear the prisoner respecting his age, education, Fairbanks hesitated and then turning to tbe judge with the Bible in his hand, said: If your honor please, I have made this book a study nines my incarceration, and I find that it tells me it is not right to swear.

Fairbanks; that he was born ia Wayne county, N. was brought up on a farm; was now thirty-seven years of age; could read and write; had received reliious instruction was married and had been previously convicted of a misdemeanor rAlKBAJlKS ASLCtf KOROrV 1XESS. Tbe prisoner was then assed by the court if be had anything to say why the sentence of tbe law should not be pronounced upon hftn. With a voice trembling and broken with emotion Fairbanks spoke as follows: "I have only a few remarks to make. I thank your honor for tbe fair and impartial charge; the jury for the doubt which they rendered to my benefit, and my counsel for their a Me defence.

I also wish to ask tbe forgiveness of Mrs. Gotnmenginger and her family, whom I have so injured in this unfortunate affair." Having said this much, hi voice became choked and his speech was wholly prevented by his emotion. The tears coursed rapidly down his cheeks, and as soon as he could command his utterance he simply said, "i await your pleasure As can easily be imagined. tbe seen was a vary effecting ona, and the majority oi we avectaturs wen morea so impartial trial; you have been ably defended jury have found a verdict of guilty of murder in the second degree; with the result to which tbe jury baa come, the court finds no reason to complain, I would not, by anything I can say to you in this hour, add anything to the weight of sorrow that is now ret-ttng upon you. Tbe law has fixed the pamauroect for this crime, which has been deemed just and adequate, and that is suffi cient.

I only ask yon that, in the long confinement that awaits you, you will let memory do its work; that you will remember a brother's admonitions; that you will remember a mother's love, and a mother's kindness; and that you will let these work a reformation la your own heart; because there may be reform, there may be redemption for you. I hope, therefore, that the time may be spent by you in preparing to meet tbe responsibilities teat await you in the future. The sentence of this court is that you be confined at bard labor in the state prison at Auburn for the period of your natural life." At the conclusion of the judge's remarks a slight but unbecoming and reprehensible attempt at applause was made in tue rear of the court, which was, of course, promptly suppressed by tbe officers. Tn nrimer was then remanded to jaiL General Marticidale made application for a writ of error. We understand, however, that no stay of proceedings will be asked for.

burns allowed to take a room: went to bed in the new room and not aries until I heard tbe alarm ot fire Mrs. Phillips came into the room after I was bed and asked me if my wife wasn't going down to sop per; Mrs. Philli ps said would give a five-dollar bill she could have a drink of Hquw that minute; she asked my wife what Burns done to her. and she replied that he but insulted her and sbe would have a warrant him if sbe lived until morning; there was quarrel between my wi'e and sirs. Phillios, I told my wife to snut up and behave herself; I find it necessary to carry matches light my charcoal fire, which I frequently have to one in the plumbing business; my wife turned dowa the lamp in our room, and atked ms for a match to relight and told her to get oue from my cost pocket, which she did; we were both in bed at the time of tbe fire; we jumped and dreseed as fast as we could when I as helping extinguish tba firs Mr.

Burns told me tbe room in which ths flames origi-ted was unoccupied; don't know what w.ike me up at ths time: mv wife said, "James, somebody cried fire;" I have never stated that my wife was out of I red at the time. Maria Crumley was sworn anil testified: I did not make threats to Mr. or Mrs. Burns ou tbe night of tbe fire, other than to say I would have him arrested before morning; I changed tbe chambers from our room to an other one on tbe night of tbe fire, but do not know what room I entered, as it was dark; did not tell Mrs Phillips that I would get even with Burns by firing his house; was not out in the ball at any time on tbtt night with a lighted candle; never used the profanity repeated by Mrs Phillips; it was not dark when I changed the vessels; it was a strange house and I do not know just which room I entered when mads tbe change; do not think I was drunk; had no light or candle when I made the change, as it was daylight and none was necessary. Mr.

Burns was recalled and said that hs told Mrs. Crumley the chamber had been chant td from her room, and be did not think would take bim long to diocover the origia of the fire; sfas ssid it was a lie that no charge bad been made Tbe court then adjourned until 9 o'clock this morning srifiug if BaiuHron. i an Id Maa, ffeventy Years ot Age, I Haass Hi ante) 1st arary abrratloai Cans of this Act. Yesterday noon an old maa named John Dack, residing in the town of Brighton, coat-mitttd suicide by hanging, while suffering from temporary insanity. Coroner Morrison 1 was summoned and an inquest wss held.

It appeared that about two years ago a dangh- ter of the old man died, and since thst time, as a neighbor expressed it, be had not been although there were no eepectal demonstrations to show that his mind was really unsettled. About three weeks ago, while driving into ths city upon a load of hay, his load was upset near Mount Hope and be was thrown off upon his head, receiving severe injuries. Yesterday he stated, on arising from his bed, that he never felt better in his life, and went about bis work with unuxual cheerfulness. About 11 o'clock be declared his intention of coming into the city and desired bis wife to give him the bank book so that he could draw some money. This shs refused to do, snd the old man went grumblingly out to the barn.

Be remained away so long that search was instituted for him, jod his lifeless body was found hanging by a rope tied to a rafter In a low ffbed attached to the bam. Tne roof was so low that a man could not stand upright in it, and hence, in order to accomplish his design, Dack had To bend his knees so that they barely escaped the ground. The body was found by Mrs. Dack, who called a neighbor, Mr. Scbaffer, who came to her as sistance.

A razor was fijund in one of ths pockets of the deceased. Coroner Morrison held sn inquest, as above stated, ths verdict being that of suicide. Deceased has a son and a daughter in Jackson county, and another son in Fleasantviile, I'a. Tns I lighted ntreet Camps. 7b tke Rdiior of the Democrat and Chronicle: Sib: Noticing an article in this morning issue of the Democrat and Chronicle, headed Nearly 1.000 Lamps Uncared for ou Saturday Night," tbe writer is of the opinion that the lamp committee, the common council and tbe contractor are in It unjustly censured.

hen it is taken into consideration that during the present month we have had an unprecedented series of storms, such as has not been witnessed in Rochester for many years, if ever, tbe only wonder is that tbe contractor has been able to keep ss many of tbe lamps lighted as hs has. Last Saturday evening, with the wind blowing at a velocity of thirty-five miles per hour, and the weather so cold that tbe wicks were many of them congealed in tbe lamps, it is not strange that many of ths lamps should have been blown out; in fact, it seems strange that as many should continue to burn as did. Ws have no doubt but that ths present on tractor has lalored as bard and as efficiently as any man could do, under the circumstances, to keep the lamps in order, and at a loss of several hundred dollars to himself during ths present month. As to tbe statement that tbe contract was awarded to the highest bidder, we are willing to con- ceue tnat sne writer oi tne article in question must have been laboring under a misappre hension in regard to ths facts, as we would net wish to accuse any gentleman of making a statement so utterly false knowingly. The fa is, aa the writer knows positively, the contract was awarded to tbe lowest regular bidder.

There were several higher bids that wers regular, ranging from ill.bo to $15.00. Now why the writer of tbi article in the Democrat should publicly state that the con-, tract was awarded to ths highest bidder we are unable to understand, except on ths ground that the matter has been grossly misrepresented to him by disaffected parties. Yours truly. a tax raTBR, who desires to look at all matters in a reawa-able manner, and not be influenced by ths clamor of ring politicians or duappjinted sham contractors.

He bas been in jail at Auburn since hi arrest in this city. His case was brought before the grand jury recently sitting there and he was arraigned to plead to three indictments for bigamy. When brought to trial he will doubtless bava all tbe opportunity to prove bis innocence to the people of Hoc ties ter, as hs claims he is able to do.

Never before in the history ot Rochester bave our taxpayers been called upon to meet an itoue of this character, or one mora teriouly comes home to every property owner. The construction of our water work Lave been enormouly expensive, and until the courts now eettie this, the latest feature, our people cauiot be expected to breathe very freeJy.

We trust tbey will prove equal to the eaiSTgency. Tbe action of the council to-night relating to this suit, will be eagerly looked for. A DeaA lataMt Sophia Street.
