The Baltimore and Ohio Syndicate Prepared to Pay Over tbe Money. Baltimore, June 13. Mr. E. R.

Bacon, the representative of the syndicate which has secured the holdings of the city and State and 12,000 shares of those of the Johns Hopkins University in the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, was at th Baltimore and Ohio building to-day almost as soon as business opened, and alter a brief visit to Vice President Orland Smith called to see Vice President King. A few minutes later President Mayer arrived and almost immediately Messrs. Bacon and Mayer held a conference. The object of tbe visit to Baltimore at this time is to receive from tbe Board of Publio Works the State's holdings in the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. I am in Baltimore to pay for it," says Mr.

Bacon. "I have no doubt that the transfer will be made to-day. I will also to-day or to-morrow get from the Johns Hopkins University trustees 12,000 of the 13,000 shares ot the Baltimore and Ohio stock held by them." Mr. Bacon declined to say what figures the syndicate is to nay for the State and University stock. The quotations for the former are, however.

132V6 bid, 140 asked. and the impression prevails that the State is to get 130 and tbe university 104. Mr. Bacon was asked when the payment for the city's stock will be made. "I cannot answer definitely at this time," was the reply, but I will be ready before the option has expired on July As the Johns Hopkins trustees are to re ceive the entire block ol the preferred stock, purchased by Mr.

Bacon and the interest on this amounts to (58,116. which has to be paid regularly, the University will have a handsome increase to its present income. A reasonable demand. Insist upon getting an "Excelsior" or "Star" Ham Irons your grocer, iioas genuine unless branded. $3.00.

The bill alleges, among other things, that the defendant has, since 1881, collected large sums of money and accounted for only a portion thereof and that demands for a statement have been refused. Kichard C. Dale, master in the bill in equity between William F.

Simes, plaintiff, and Washington I Simes, defendant, yesterday filed bis report in the office of the Common Pleas Courts and recommended that a decree be entered directing the defendant to pay the plaintiff 10,233.18. with interest from November 1, 1889. Exceptions to this were filed, but the master after examination overruled them without further argument Court of Common Pleas No. 2 yesterday overruled the demurrer of the Board of Re vision of. Taxes in the case against it brought by six different trust companies, and continued the injunction restraining the board from levying any tax upon these companies for the year 188W.

Court of Common Pleas No. 4 yesterday confirmed the report of the master in the bill in equity bled by the Bergner JMigei Brewing Company against Weisbrod Hess, asking that the defendants be re strained perpetually from using tbe word "lannhauser. Dr. C. S.

Bates, an eclectic physician, was ordered by Judge Pennypacker to pay 3 per week for the support of his wife. George Benedict, over 60 years old, was charged before tbe same judge wltn tailing to contribute to the support of his father, 84 years old. Ueorge surrendered tour dollars which he had with him and was discharged, with the understanding that he would in future comply with an order made some time ago. Judge Reed heard petty prison cases in the new court bouse. Pennrnnr-ber vpsfprilnv heard tpsti- mony on the rule taken by the Law and Order Society on James Delaney, a wholesale licensed dealer at Ridge avenue and Bolton street, to show cause why his license should not be revoked for selling beer in a kettle to a minor.

A PARK BALLOON ASCENSION Ait Old-fashioned Jollification Fa-ored by the Working People) The Sham Battle Idea Discussed by the Military An All-day Picnic Judging from the manner in which it baa ftsoght en to public favor.THE Inquirer's article on an old fashioned celebration of the rourth of July has proven a most happy one. The views and sentiments expressed by the persons interviewed were heartily Indorsed and everyone spoke in the most enthusiastic manner over the features of the proposed observance of the day. This was particularly noticeable as to the all day picnic in the Park, the sham battle and fireworks ideas. The proposed celebration meets with the greatest favor from the laboring classes, and it formed the topic of discussion in the mills, factories and shops, as well as eo the street cars. MADE HIM FEEti YOUSO AOAIX.

"Wheal picked up my Inquirer and read about the proposed old-fashioned celebration of the Fourth of July it made me feel young again and took me back to boyhood days," said Squire McMnllen yesterday. "Say what you please, the Fourth has never been as appropriately celebrated as it was when I was young. It was the greatest day of the year to us, and we began to count the days to its approach for at least two months. It will do us all good to have an Old-time celebration." It is a capital idea and I fully indorse all that was said about it in The Inquirer by the gentlemen who were interviewed," aid Edwin Wells. We should do everything that is possible to keep the anniversary of such a great event in our country's history ever in remembrance.

If an old-fasbioned affair is proposed it is certain to be patriotic." CAN'T MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE. Great idea and I indose it cordially," Said Dr. O. Milton Brad field enthusiastically. Set all the bells ringing and cannons booming.

We cannot make too much noise In overloading our surplus patriotism on such a day. Let it be a bans: up old-time jollification." The day should never be forgotten and it should most certainly be marked with special observance," said District Attorney Graham. "The plan suggested is a good one." I am in favor of whooping it up to the fullest extent," said Magistrate Pole. When I was a boy 1 could make as much noise as the next one oa the Fourth of uly. Our so-called celebrations have of late been lifeless.

We want more life i them, and I think an old-fashioned blow out would be Just the thing." The celebration should be arranged so as to afford the poor ople every, opportunity to enjoy it," said Mr. Heinenian. My idea would be to provide plenty of ice water in the Park, and even sandwiches in case there were people there too poor to buy them. Make it a great, jolly day for the poor, and give them something to think over lor weeks after. The idea of the celebration is so good that I cannot imagine that any one can be found to object to it." Several military men who were seen said 1 1 1 1 in 1 1 linn ii i ii in 1 1 ii io uxm THREE CHARMING RESORTS.

Sea Isle City, Wiidwood-by-the-Sea and Avaloo. The one place probably on the entire coast that has made the most progressive 6trides in the past nine years is Sea Isle City. Being about the same distance from Philadelphia as Atlantic City, and enjoying first-class railroad accommodations, it has won the distinction of being a famous rival to many of the older resorts. This city by the sea has many advantages. Its beach is unobstructed.

No booths or shanties are allowed to be built upon it. All garbage is carted off the Island to tbe mainland, and thus is tbe healthfulness of the place preserved. The streets have been newly graded and graveled, and the beach and thoroughfare drives are the loveliest upon the coast. A grand board walk, three miles long, has just been completed, forming a delightful promenade. J.

he city is iigntea Dy tbe Jdt son incandescent system of electrio lights; There are two churches there, Methodist and Catholic a banking institution and publio school, and a population of nearly 1,000. Thirty or forty hotels and cottage boarding houses are now open, affording ample accommodations. There is to be an inaugural celebration of the opening of the tenth season this evening. The handsome Continental, which is one of the finest hotels along the entire coast. opens for the season Frank H.

Hildreth, late ot Columbia Hotel, Cape May, as manager. Bicker's famous Tivoli Hotel and House, Petersen's Hotel, Keenan's New Park Hotel, are all open and catering to the public WILDWOOD-BY-THE-SBA. This pretty 2-year old resort and forest Island beach has enjoyed a prosperous opening. The improvements that have been made within the past six months are most noticeable. The new Hotel Dayton, which was recently erected at a cost of (30,000, is a handsome structure and, under the management of W.

B. Livezey, of Philadelphia, is on the road to success. Wild wood is a picturesque resort, Wildwood Park, Magnolia Lake, Holly Grove all have their attractive features. All kinds of wild flowers abound in the woods in the rear of the place, and the beach is one of the finest upon tne coast, it is truly a royal place to rest and recuperate. The founders are ex-Senator Philip P.

Baker and I R. Baker, of Vineland, N. and J. Thompson Baker, of Lewisburg, Pa. AVALON BEACH.

Avalon Beach is a new candidate for publio favor and boasts, too, of a grand beach, two large hotels and many magnificent cottages, all of which have been erected within the past two years. The new Hotel Avalon, under the genial proprietorship of Robert M. Snyder, is delightfully situated on the point within seventy yards ot the surf and opens for the season on Saturday next, June 21. The place is accessible from Philadelphia over the West Jersey Railroad via Sea Isle City and is liberally patronized by PhUadelphians. It also bas a bright future.

MISS ROOSEVELT A.KD BER SISTER AGAIN SUCCESSFUL. Miss Cahtll and Mr. Beach Win the Bllxed Doubles, Beating Miss Townsend and Mr. Lee After a Hard Struggle.

The most successful tennis tournament ever held in Philadelphia was brought to a conclusion yesterday. During the four days' play nearly five thousand spectators have visited the grounds and, owing to fine weather, have witnessed some of the finest tennis playing that has ever been exhibited. MISS CAHILL IK TBHKIS. The main events were the Ladies' Singles aud Doubles for the championship of the United States, while several other open events were contested for. Some of the most prominent tennis players in the country took part in the tournament and the result has been eminently satisfactory to the promoters.

The only drawback was the injury of Miss M. C. Ca-hill, the famous Irish lady champion, who showed such magnificent form in the first set with Miss IS. C. Roosevelt Much sympathy is felt for the" unfortunate lady, who undoubtedly would have won tne championship had she not been disabled during her first round.

She, however, partly retrieved her lost laurels by her round yesterday when in partnership with Mr. R. V. Beach, they defeated the former champion, Miss Bertha L. Townsend, and her partner, Mr.

T. Lee, for the mixed doubles. The Misses Roosevelt maintained the form shown by them during the tournament by carrying off the ladies' doubles. There was but little appreciable decrease in the number of spectators when the first CHAMFIOlf SHIP LADIES' SIKOLES OTP. was called yesterday.

Miss Voorhees was declared the winner or the ladies singles second prize, Miss'Cabill and "Miss Butter worth having defaulted. The consolation for the gentlemen's singles was then decided, Longacre beating Howell in the preliminary round Burhorn and Longacre then defaulted to Cowperthwait and Harri that there was no doubt that a mock battle could be arranged with the different regiments. "My plan," he said, would be to have the military JTO into camp on the night of the 3d and begin the battle for the possession of a given point about 8 o'clock in the evening, by which time everyone desiring to witness the maneuvers would have had an opportunity to reacli the scene of battle. I witnessed the sham battle just outside of New York the other day, and I must confess it was exciting. There is no reason why we cannot duplicate it in the Park.

I haven't the least doubt but that all the regiments will be interested in such a celebration as is proposed, lor I hear it talked of among the military." As a result of the Fourth of July agitation Professor King has taken out a permit for a balloon ascension in the Park. He hopes to receive private contributions to de fray tne expeuses. KMBEZZbEMEKT NOT SHOWS. A Bank of America Official Discharged and Two Oitaers Indicted. Judge Pennypacker yesterday discharged from custody Chas.

L. Brown connected with the branch of the Bank of America at tier- mantown and Lehigh avenues. He was ar rested on a charge of embezzlement preferred by Isaac Guggenheimcr, whose wife and son carry on business under the name of J. Guggenheimer Son. They charged that Brown had received a deposit on April 30, knowing the bank to be insolvent.

Gug genheimer sent his daughter to make the deposit about 10 o'clock. An hour later he read the announcement that the bank was tottering. When he called at 1 P. M. the doors were closed, but his deposit was on the inside.

Brown defended himself by claiming that he knew nothing ot tne bank condition when he received the deposit. It was also said that the prosecutor had overdrawn his account, but this was denied. Another point was the claim that Brown was cashier ut the branch, while he said he was ouly a clerk. Judge Fell discharged an employe ot the West Philadelphia branch under similar circumstances, and District Attorney ura-hani said the case had never been argued, but admitted that there could be no conviction unless it was conclusively shown that Brown had a knowledge of the bank's condition. George S.

Patchel yesterday filed an affidavit of defense in the case ot' the Ileal Estate Title Insurance Company, Keceiver tor the American Life, against him. The action was to recover the value of promissory notes drawn to his order after February 14, between which time and April .30 the contested notes were drawn. The grand jury yesterday found true bills of indictment against President Louis K. Pfeiffer and Cashier James S. Dungan, chargwir them with receiving on deposit the property of liodger Maynes, of tit JNorth Twenty-hrst street, knowing the bank to be insolvent.

All the other bills heretofore presented charge embezzlement, but in this case there is an additional bill charging the defendants with conspiracy to injure the credit of Mr. Maynes by false representations. Mrs. Clear Is on Band. Last November an advertisement inquiring for the whereabouts of one Margaret Cleary was inserted in the Boston Glob by someone in Pennsylvania.

No answer was received, and in due course the "copy" was destroyed. Shortly alter the destruction of the "copy," and consequent loss of the advertiser's address, Margaret Cleary made her appearance at the Globe office and left ber address, which is 57 Union Square, Somerville, Mass. She is very anxious to know who the advertiser was. BCII.NQ OCT A RAILROAD. Tbe Norfolk and Western Purchases the Scioto Valley Bond In Ohio.

President Kimball, of the Norfolk and Western Railroad, announced yesterday the purchase ot the Scioto Valley Road in Ohio, which will be a feeder to the extension now being built by tbe Norfolk and Western to Ironton. The road has been in the bands of a receiver tor five years, during which time the net earnings were all spent upon the property, until now it is in first-class condition. The company has been reorganized finan-ciallv and now has a debt of 5,000, 000 bearing five per cent, interest and a capital stock of fo, 000,000. All the capital stock has been purchased by the Norfolk and Western. It is calculated that the road is now able to earn about $300,000 net, while it will do very much better when the Ohio extension is completed.

The following circular was addressed to the stockholders yesterday by President Kimball Arrangements have been completed by which your company acquires tbe Scioto Valley and New England Railroad, extending from Ironton, tbe projected terminus of your Ohio Extension now under construction to Co-lam baa, Ohio, a distance of about 132 miles. The physical condition of the railroad is remarkably good, and it bas low grades and light curvature. It owns very valuable terminal facilities in the city of Ironton, in-eluding tracks Into all the furnaces and manufacturing establishments in that city, and it crosses and connects with the systems of tbe Pennsylvania Railroad, the Baltimore and Ohio, Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton and Ohio and Northwestern Railroads, as well as making numerous other important connections: Its acquisition will therefore not only save to your company a considerable expendi ture ror construction ana terminals at xronton, but also secures connections with not less than fifteen railroads for Interchange ol traffic. Work upon your Ohio extension. Including tbe bridge over the Ohio river, is rapidly progressing; It is expected that over 60 miles of the line will be completed during the present year, and tbe remainder during lswl, when a Junction with tbe Scioto Valley road will be effected.

Your directors have for several years appreciated the Importance to your company ot the acquisition of this property, in anticipation of which It has been carefully studied by your general manager, chief engineer, and by myself. An examination by your treasurer and comptroller Into its financial condition has just been concluded. Tbe information tnus obtained justifies tbe opinion that the property, which when entirely absorbed will cost your company, as near as may be, 8,000,000 of your preferred shares, will from the start earn beyond Its fixed Interest charges of $200,000 per annum, which your company will assuiun, In excess of the present rate of dividends on your company's preferred shares issued in payment. The railroad acquired serves a territory containing many local industries and capable of development. Its present annnal earnings of about $5,000 per mile aro entirely from local sources.

Your present system Is earning at the rate of about $10,000 per mile and it is believed tbat the earnings of the Scioto Valley Road will within a very short time after the completion of tbe Ohio extension be equally large and tbe profits thus accraing to your company through its possession of the Scioto Valley Railroad be very substantial. Antrim's Popular Excursions. The newest thing under tbe sun Is tbe Reading Switcbbaok, Mount Peno and its wonderful cravity railroad at Reading, Pa. There Is nothing just like It in the world. A glorious summer mountain trip, combining the thrilling ascent of Mount Washington, in the White Mountains, with the exhilarating descent of the famous gravity railroad at Maucli Chunk.

Clarence ii. Antrim, with bis characteristic enterprise, was the first to announce a popular excursion to this new resort for Thursday, June W. via the popular Reading Kail road.

11 South Ninth surest. nnal round. A movement was now made toward tbe first court, where the ladies' doubles championship was to be decided, the champion and her sister being opposed by the ex-champion. Miss Townsend, and Miss Ballard. The sisters -von commenced their scoring, and took the first five games inthebrst set I heir opponents secured one, but this was all they could manage in this set The first two games in the second set also tell to tne Misses Koosevelt but Miss Town- send and Miss Ballard equalized matters in the next two, and at the end of the fourth game tbe score was called two all." This seemed to waken np the Ponghkeepsie pair, who then took the next four straight, taking the second set and winning the "double championship.

Tbe winners were heartily applauded by the spectators for their beau- ulul playing. Miss Cahill and Mr. Beach then took pos session ot the court, being opposed by Miss aownsend and nr. JLce. This round proved to be one of the best witnessed in the whole tournament Each fought hard to tire the other and repeated rallying, volleying and exchanging was indulged in, each pair bringing all their skill and cunning to their assistance.

In the first set Miss Cahill and Mr. Beach won the first four games in succession, but the fifth fell to their opponents the sixth remained with the visitors, while the Belmont pair placed the seventh to their credit xne eighth and last game was a hard fought one, but with the aid of some good volleying Miss Cahill and Mr. Beach captured it, thus winning the first set by tne score ot o-z. The next set was a complete reversal of the first as the West Philadelphia couple after losing the first game took the next five without muck apparent trouble. They lost It A A.

A deciding set was now to be played and everybody watched the outcome with increased interest Miss Cahill and Mr. Beach again led off with three straight games, but allowed the opposing couple to take the two next in is made matters intensely interesting, the scoring being 3-2, in favor of Miss Cahill and her sturdy partner.
