ONE MAN STOOD BETWEEN BE' EK AND THE ROPE. It is Said That After the Jury Had Re tired the First Ballot Showed Eleven for Murder in the First De gree and One Against Judge Ed wards Hearing a Robbery Case. Contrary to expectations, the jury in the Bezek murder trial had not agreed when Judge Edwards reached the court house at 8:30 clock yesterday morning, neither did they agree during the day. Thev could be seen at the windows of the jury room in the afternoon, many of then with their coats oil, ana tuey suoweu no sitfns of an agreement. The fact that they did not arrive at a verdict before noon yesterday is said Dy people who are looked upon a3 authorises in such cases to mean tnat uezeK win escape the rope.

Some rumors reached the public yesterday with regard to tue standing of the jury. It is said that on the first ballot eleven were for first dceree and one for second A night of reflection convinced three that thev were not sufficiently merciful and their morning vote was eight for first degree and four That is the wav thev were supposed to stand yesterday afternoon. Counsel for Bezek were very much elated yesterday afternoon over the fact that the jury was stiil out, indicating tliat their defense had saved his life. BEFORE JTJDQE CUXSTER. Court did not meet yesterday morning owing to the funeral of Hon.

D. W. Connolly. Yesterday afternoon the sessions were resumed in both rooms. Be' fore Judge Gunster the case called on the previous day, that of Mrs.

Jane Ly man, who charged Abraham Jones with aggravated assault aud battery, was continued. The testimony was of an amusing though unimportant nature. Judge Gunster, after a brief charge, gave the case to the jury at 4:45 o'clock. A CASE OF ROBBERY. Judge Edwards is hearing the charge of robbery brought by Michael Susko against A.

Petatonis. Air. Fitzsimmons is assisting the district attorney and Messrs. "Ward and Soper appear for the defendant. Susko when upon the witness stand said that on July 26, last, he was a resident of Lloyd street, North End.

A beer wagon came along and he rushed out to purchase a box of his favorite beverage. After he had paid for the same along came Petalonis and another who helped themselves to his beer. When he protested trouble was occasioned and a hot quarrel resulted. Susko says that he was knocked down aud when he was down the defendant stole $5 from his pocket while the man with him stole a revolver which Susko had drawn for the purpose of defending himself. Susko was corroborated by Joe Rozoski.

Now came some very conflicting testi mony. In his own defense Peiatalonis admitted all the facts up to the robbery.but denied any act of that kind. He said that he was led to strike Susko in bis auger and his companion took the re volver from him, but there was no thought of robbery and he was astonished at the allegation. Petatalonis was corroborated by Frank Kariski, who said he saw a part of the affair aud there was no robbery. Susko, when he came into the house, said he was determined to have Petatalouig arrested, but did not dare arrest him for stealing the revolver, so would prefer adother charge.

Case on. BRIEFLY TOLD. T. G. Rarrick was sentenced to pay costs, which had been imposed upon him in a certain case, Charles Williams was a defendant in two cases of forgery, one brought by Simon Schultz aud the other by Andrew Yeager.

By some sort of understanding the defendant was found not guilty and the costs imposed upon him. Joseph fallon was charged with larceny by bailee. A. D. Barnes being the prosecutor.

A verdict of not guilty was found becausa the prosecutor did not appear. i'homas Totter was charged with defrauding a boarding house keeper. P.C. Smith, the prosecutor, did not appear, so will have to pay the costs, Potter having been adjudged not guilty. Michael Mott, having pleaded guilty of assault, C.

P. Powell, was sentenced to pay ths costs of the case and a fine of $10. THE SCHUMANN QUARTETTE. They Gave a Delightful Conoert at V. M.

C. A. Mall Lust livening. A more enthusiastic audience never assembled within the Y. M.

C. A. hall than the one that listened to the entertainment given by the Schuman Lady Quartette of Chicago last evening. From the first number to the last, there was a continual demand for encores, which was generally responded to. The first selection was a quartette, "Legends," by morning, which at once captured the audience, and in response to the contiuous applause sang "E9tudiantina" by La come.

Miss Jessie Patten, the reader gave two numbers, "Lullaby'' and "Mamy's Li'le Boy," which so captivated the audience that she was compelled to respond with another selection. "We Parted by the Riverside" by the quartette aroused so great and hearty applause tliat they responded with "Hear Dem Into which was introduced a fine piece of humming that brought out the most enthusiastic applause. Miss Catherine Jones sang a "Cradle Song" by Noiiis and in response to the warm appluuse she received she sang "Tho Sweetest Story Ever Told. "Mr. Will W.

Milker, a teacher of elocution, who is with the company as a visitor for a few days, gave two humorous selections which greatly pleased the audience. The Quartette, "I Don't Want to Tlay in Your Yard," took like the rest and they responded with a jubilee song. Miss lleuchling, the "basso" of the quartette, sang in German "We Meet Again" and beiug recalled sang "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep in the key of finishing on the low D. Mr. Millner gave two more selections, which were well received.

Miss Waller sang "Idol of My Heart," and In response sang a quaint song entitled "Jennie." For a closing selection, the quartette sang "Voices of the Night," and while it was generally understood that this was tho last thing on the programme, the audience still persisted in their applause, and would not leave their seats until the quartette sang again. The ladies responded with "My Old Kentucky Home." The entertainment throughout was one of the most pleasing ever given in this city, and it is certain that tho next time tuey come they will be greeted with a much larger audience than was present last evening. The ladies were some what handicapped last evening from the fact that the piano of the' association was badly out of tune.

"THE JOURNEY OF PIERRE Each succeeding number of Edgar L. uaiiemans 'Tales of Ten Travelers furnishes a surprise and delight to the appreciative lover of fiction. His latest story, "The Journoy of Pierre Floauet." which appears in the Sunday Republican is an ethnologic revelation of permanent and great value.exquisitely woven among the threads ot a most tender and thrilling romance. IT CAUSED A SENSATION. And all the Enemies of the Postmaster Were Seeking Cover Yesterday Mr, Vandling Oat of Town.

The appearance in The Republican yes terday morning of an item stating that there is a movement looking to tho re moval of F. M. Vandling as postmaster caused a profound sensation. It is said that the item proved a death blow to the scheme to deprive Mr. Vandling of his office.

Those who were interested in the scheme to oust him at once took to their holes and pulled the hole in after him. Reporters who made the rounds of the local prominent 'Democratic politicians were surprised thut everyone seemed to be a close and particulars friend of Mr. Vandling. Meu who are known to have been criticising him scathingly for months past yesterday were desperately singing his praises in their frantic" efforts to get in out of the wet, ia other words, to avoid suspicion of beiug leagued against Mr. Vandling.

the friends of Mr. Vandling were thoroughly aroused. Though the post master lumseir is supposed to bo in JNew York, friends to defend him were not lacking. It was stated by men in a posi tion to Know j.nat the relatives of Mr. Vandling and party boss, Robinson, are not strained, the men are thoroughly reconciled tuougn there was colduess for a tune.

JU. Vandling was determined to make an appointment that Mr. Robinson objected to and this evidence of indepehdanco on the part of the postmaster angered the boss but his anger soon cooled. Mr Vandling will probably serve out his full term and be relieved by a Republican president. The post office employes were up in arms yesterday over rumors of Mr.Vandliug's treatment ot his men.

i. hey seem great ly attached to him and deny with a show of anger the mean stories that have been used against Mr. Vandling during the past few months. A STORMY PASSAGE. A Scrantonian on Board the Indiana Which Was Eleven Days l'ast Due.

William Andrews, of this city, formerly a L. W. foreman, returned to this country one week ago after a visit in England.comiug over the briuy deep on one of the stormiest passages recorded this year. The vessel Indiana, a single screw propeller of the American line, left Liverpool Nov. 7, with 186 passengers on board destined to arrive in Philadelphia Nov.

17. The vessel encountered severe headwiuds, gales and hurricanes which for a period of two days swept over her, and caused the most sanguine sailor to predict the loss of the ship. At one time the life belts wore handed around, and the women aud children locked in their berths to prevent them from being injured. The first vessel was sighted when within 300 miles of port, but Captain Townseud would not signal it, aud eventually put into port Nov. 28, eleven days past due.

On the voyage the engines broke twice, and also the vessel's stearing gear. Mr. Andrews, who has crossed tliu Atlantic several times, said it was the most thrilling experience of his life. BATHED WITH HOT WATER. A North End Woman Scalds Her Husband and is Committed to Jail.

Ellen Munloy Noon of the North End, whose name has graced tbe police docket many a time, is once moro in durance vile, Mrs. Munley, as sue was formerly known, cajoled George Noon into marrying her lust June, and he alleges the ceremony was performed by Alderman Delacy while he was drunk. They did not go on a wedding tour, but settled in the North End. After six weeks of married life Ellen became jealous of her husband, and spoke very harshly to him at the supper Later whilo he was combing his hair before a looking glass, his spouse threw a picture of hot water on him. flh head, neck aud face were scalded badly, and be has since beeu unable to work.

She sued him for desertion, and appeared before Alderman Fitzsiinmons last evening where the abvo facts were recited. The alderman dismissed the case, and she was immediately arrested at the instance of Noon fr assault and battery.

Say the Reporters Got Things Mixed. Monthly Report of Health Officer Allen and Other Officials Presented at Yesterday's Meeting Powers of the Board Defined. The members of the board of health expressed considerable indignation during yesterday's meeting at what they termed "unwarranted newspaner attacks," with respect to the Fanning family. Considerable notoriety has been given the family of late, which the men bers claim was due to a misunderstanding of the status of the board. Dr.

Allen is his report stated the num of typhoid lever cases reported, recorded a nnticable increase, but that the preva lauce was not as extensive as in other cities. Referring to tho Fanning family of Breaker street, he said "No notice was given of the unsanitary surroundings of the premises, by the attending physician. Examination of the premises showed a water closet forty or fifty feet from the house in a bad condition, but no worse than hundreds of others, we find, where there is no sickness. There were no cess pools near the city water used by the family. From the statement of tho attending physician, and the people in the neighborhood, the inconceivable filth of that house, and the absolute want of proper nourishment would be sufficient cause to create any disease that might have existed there.

There have some cases that might be fairly attributed to the want of sewer connection in which we have been powerless. No connection can be made until sewer assessments are paid. 1 would suggest that the board ask the city solicitor to prepare an ordinance, making it possible for the board to compel connection with sewers. By some mistake tho reporters credited me with reporting only one case of typhoid fever in the city last month. As the secretary reported all cases and as I never said anything of the sort, the board of health nas Deen soinewunt misrepreseubeu before the community.

Very respectfully, W. E. Allen, health officer. POWERS 0 THE BO ARE DEFINED. The following statement was ordered issued "To correct erroneous impression, ex pedite business and prevont misnnder staudmg the board or health would respectfully call the attention of the public to the following: The members of the board of health receive no pay tor their services.

bestley's invective. President Bentley said that the phy sician attending the family made no report respecting the unsanitary surround ings which formed the chief point of attack on the board. "I condemn this abuse of the he said, "to be without warrant or precedent. The rules of the board," he continued, "are rigid with respect to having all contagious diseases reported, and also the sanitary surroundings, which important phase wag neglected in this case." The members heartily endorsed the sentiment expressed and commended the action of the health officials in tbe matter. REPLY OP SECRETARY LEE.

Health OiScer Allen read a letter re ceived from Secretary Lee of the state board of hecitli, relative to the precautions taken by him in the recent Elra hurst typhoid scare. The letter is as follows: "Mr. W. E. Allen, Health Officer, Dear Sir Accopt my thanks for Tour notifica tion in refiara to tne existence or typhoid fever at Elmhnrst and the fact that tbe houses are so situated as to endanger the water supply or the city.

I cannot too heartily commend your vigilance, and energy in protecting the health or your people. 1 do not usee that I can add anything'to the excellent precaution you have taken. 1 think that there can be no doubt that you have traced these last cases to their true source. Yours very truly, Benj.

Lee, Secretary. THE SECRETARY'S REPORT. Secretary Briggs reported the number of deaths occurring during the month of November to be 123. Of this number 16 were due to accidents. Some discussion ensued relative to the presence of tys phoid fever irom which nvo deaths oc curred during the month.
