The Rochester Post-Express of last evening contained the following: A despatch from Tunbridge Wells, England, announced the death of Mrs. Leonard Jerome, formerly of this city, and mother of Lady Randolph Churchill. John H. Rochester, asked by a reporter for reminiscences of Mrs. Jerome, said: "Mrs.

Jerome's maiden name was Clarissa Hall and her family lived at Palmyra. Her sister married Lawrence and ehe Leonard Jerome, both of whom came to Rochester and started in business. They purchased and managed "The Daily American," a Know-Nothing paper which was for a time one of the ablest in the city. They attended St. Luke's church and were prominent iu society here.

Mrs. Leonard Jerome was a pleasant and pretty woman, and waa very popular. In 1S55 the brothers disposed of their paper and removed to New York, where they engaged in the brokerage business, in which they were very successful. Leonard Jerome was a great speculator and soon became one of the kings of Wall street, and the family also became very prominent in social circles. Jerome Park was laid out and named after him.

He speculated successfully for a time but one da was on the wrong side of the market and lost heavily. He had settled pome property upon his wife, and then retired from the street, living quietly and spending a considerable portion of his time in Europe." Samuel Wilder said: "Leonard Jerome died two years ago in England; Lawrence a year previously. The three children of the former were girls, all of whom married in England, one becoming Lady Randolph Churchill. Mrs. Leonard Jerome was popular in this city, and the family resided on North Fitzhugh street.

Mr. Jerome lost a great deal of his money in New York through his operations in Pacific Mail. He was closely associated with the leading financiers of the street and was a particular friend of August Belmont. He erected the building in New York formerly occupied by the Union League and now by the University Club. When his daughter married Lord Churchill he pledged to her an income of $10,000 from the rent received from this building." MALICIOUS PROWLERS They Smashed Waiting-Cars and Tore Down Signs on North Main Street.

Two or three men made a great deal of noise and did considerable damage between 1 and 2 o'clock this morning on North Main street. At Main and Morris streets they kicked in the sides of a street railroad waiting car and smashed nearly all its windows. At Main and Amherst streets the men rolled two barrels of salt onto the street car tracks, broke open ope barrel and scattered the salt along the street. A half dozen hydrant covers were also placed on the car tracks and several "For Sale" signs torn from fences and houses. The gang also smashed a large lawn urn at the.

home of J. McCullogh, 2136 Main street. The police in the 6th precinct are trying to find the boisterous and destructive prowlers. Buffalo's Crowded Pension Agency. An Associated Press despatch from Washington says: "Commissioner Loehren has sent a letter to the Secretary of the Interior detailing the crowded condition of the pension agency at Buffalo.

He says that seven clerks are crowded in the room, while others are in rooms occupied by the United States courts. When the court is in session it is almost impossible for the clerks to work. The commissioner suggests that authority be given to procure additional rooms in which to transact the business of the office." Discussion of the Money Question Tonight.

A marked rise in temperature is reported throughout the winter wheat section extending northward to British America.

This is caused by a low developing in the extreme northwest and it is believed this depression will be felt here Saturday, probably causing rain or snow again by that day. At 8 a. m.

MR. BYRNE IS SANGUINE. After His Trip to Albany Mm Believes tae Grade Crossing Bills Will Pass. Delegates from the Common Council and the various exchanges of the city who attended the grade crossing hearing at Albany yesterday returned this morning. Among them was Councilman.

Byrne. "I believe the grade crossing bills will pass," said Mr. Byrne to a Commercial reporter. "They have not been reported out of committee as yet," ho continued, "but this was on account of the absence of the chairman. As far as I conld see, the general sentiment seemed to be In favor of the bills, and I am sanguine that they will become law." BIGFIRE'S PENSION, He Get It This Heroins; and Pretty Seoa He Was In the Hasdi of tbo Police.

Pension Agent Nichols today began pay ing pensioners. Among those who got to his office early this morning was William Bigfire, a tall Indian from the Cattaraugus reservation. Bigfire got his check for $24 at 9 o'clock. He started out to see the city but did not get three blocks from the post office building. At 9.30 o'clock he was picked up by fatroiman tjrowiey ana landed in station 1.

Bigfire in a half hour had taken on a large and assorted cargo of firewater and was sailing against the wind and laboring hard. Fortunately Big fire had not cashed his check, it was found in his coat pocket. Bigfire is 70 years old. DIDN'T GO TO ALBANY. Bar Association Committee Concluded that the Trip Wonld be Fruitless.

Buffalo is in all probability out of the fight for the location of the appellate division of the general term in this city. The Armstrong bill, which provides for the permanent location of the court in Rochester, is reported as practically sure of passage bv thd Lecislature. The committee appointed by President Stern fat the recent meeting of the Bar Association, consisting of Messrs. Locke, Laughlin, Becker, Kiene and Kenfifick, de cided that it would be useless to go to Albany in the interests of this city as the Armstrong bill had gained too strong a hold to be beaten. The members of the Bar Association manifested little interest in the matter, only about 25 of the 500 members attending the meeting called to take action on the question.

On the other hand, the Rochester lawyers were alert and active in efforts to secure the prize for their city. A Peculiar Case. William W. Weick was arraigned yesterday before United States Commissioner Fairchild on a charge of stealing a postal card addressed, to Albert A. Giesmer.

Mr. Weick furnished $1,000 bail and the case was set down for a hearing Saturday morning. A postal card addressed to Geismer was delivered at his residence, 46. East Mohawk street, and was placed beside bis plate at the dining table. Weick is alleged to have taken the, card with the intent of interfering with Geismer's business.

He is a Bel gian, aged zit, boards at oa Mam street, and is employed by Bapst McNaughton, His left-leg was broken, and the lower part of his abdomen was torn open. His back was also badly injured, and bis internal injuries were serious. "He's in very bad shape," said the Fitch surgeon who attended him, and little hope of his recovery was held out He was at work for the firm making re pairs on the bridge over the Ohio Basin slip at Ohio street.

The turntable was to be moved on roll ers and Collen was warned to step aside vat its way. He failed so to do. The big iron turntable rolled down on him and struck him just below the abdomen. A FOOLISH WIFE. Ifarried Only Four Months and Refused to Live with Her Husband.

Nicholas Meagher, a was arraigned in police court this morning charged with being a disorderly person. His wife, Kate, alleged he had left her and refused to support her. The couple were married four months ago. The young woman declared that she would not live with Meagher, as she did not care for im now. Meagher showed that he had provided a home near his employment, and that Kate had refused; to go to it.

She is living with her mother. "Go 'long," said Justice King. "Don't come up here bothering me any more. I guess it's another case of too much mother-in-law. Go 'long." Meagher departed with a friend, and Kate left with her mother.

Treager, whose will was offered for probate yesterday, appears to have had some trouble in deciding who should be the guardian of the 11-year-old boy to whom she left her $400 estate. In the last will she named William J. Koerber as guardian, and in two former instruments she named Mr. Koerber and Mary Clemens alternately. The relatives of the boy all join in a request that Mary Clemens should be the guardian.

Surrogate Stern has the matter in hand. Miss Marlowe's Kosalfnd. Julia Marlowe-Taber bewitehed her audience at the Academy of Music last evening in her beautiful impersonation of Rosalind in "As Yon Like It." The character is peculiarly suited to her powers, perhaps more so than any In her repertoire. Even the recent acquisition of the hyphenated addition to Miss Marlowe's name falls to rob her Rosalind of th old-time, innate charm. Robert Taber'a Orlando and Thomas Cole-mab's Oliver were highly creditable.

The remaindek of the cast were well 'suited to their parts. "The Love Chase" will be given this evening. PERSONAL. Mrs. George Kennan, who will lecture at the Women's Union tomorrow evening, will be the guest of Mrs.

Mr. Mann flatly contradicted the gentleman and said that they did. Churchyard gave it as his opinion that his bid was lower than any submitted and said something about stupidity on the part of the city in discarding the lowest offer by reason of a trifling informality. It was finally agreed to look over the bids again in executive session. Dwyer MoXaughton's bid is within, $1,800 of the estimated cost of the work.

W. Dwyer, the senior member, is of the firm of Dwyer Huntington, who constructed the city's new reservoir. He lives in East Hartford, Conn. Pliny B. Mc-Kanghton, who is associated with Mr.

Brunn and Attorney Brownell, all representing the Erie, appeared before the commission and submitted certain designs which changed somewhat the plan adopted relative to the abolition of the crossings along the Erie line at Clinton street.

Elk street, Bailey avenue and Abbott road. Mr. Buchholz affirmed that the adoption of his plans would result in mu-tnal benefit to the city and railroad. At the request of the railroad representatives the matter was deliberated in executive aassion. Subsequent to the session Chairman ULdam said: "We took no action on the proposition, bnt we have decided to meet at the Erie depot tomorrow at 2 o'clock and go over the ground with Mr.

Buchholz to enable us to understand exactly what the changes he suggests will involve. Should we decide to entertain his modifications, another public hearing will be in order, so that the people may have their say before any changes in the plans adopted are voted for by the commission." It is understood that the plans favored by the Erie, if adopted, would necessitate certain alterations in the agreement al- ready entered into between the commission and the Central. ON THE TERRACE.

A meeting of the Wharves and Harbor Committee will be held tonight, following up the committee's trip of inspection yesterday.
