John Wild, the actor, ran up to Policemau Kelly on East Fourteenth street, New York, a few minutes after midnight last night and told him that man had fallen into the area of a Btoro in the German Savings Bank Building and had hurt himself badly.

The policeman hurried around and found the man, a well drc ised stranger with a gold watch and diamond stud, sitting on the lowest of tho six steps loading down from tbe street, supported by an actor from Koster Bial's named Rudolph. A little knot of men had gathered in tho street. Rudolph told the policeman that he had seen the stranger leaning against the rail on the sidewalk suddenly lurch and fall headlong down the steps. There was a cut ovor his left eye and he was nnconscious. From appearances he had been drinking.

The policeman sent him to Bollevno hospital in an ambulance. At daybreak he was still senseless and the surgeons were unable to say whether or not his skull wan fractured. Sixty eight dollars were found in his pockets and somo cards variously inscribed W. Norton, tenor soloist, 020 Saratoga street, East Bos tou," and "Alexander Norton, representing Bryan, Taylor A. publishers, 757 Broadway, Now York." A contract with theabove firm for tho sale of cortain books at a high salary was also found.

His gold watch bore the inscription "from Bryan, Taylor first prize winner, April 1889. In the directory the police found the stranger's name and address: Alexander W. Norton, 103 East Eighty fourth street. It was learned at Bryan, Taylor office Mr. George Kerr, of 400 South Fourth street, not being one of those who aro touched by concord of sweet sounds, has, it appears, an insuperable aversion to the linked sweetnois long drawn out of tho accordion.

Therefore, a i in returning home on Saturday ovening ho reached tho house on South Fifth streot, near Hewes, where Mr. George Schneider resides, ho was much annoyed on finding the latter seated on tho stoop and laboriously dragging out of tho instrument an old German melody. "Vot for you maig so much noise sat 1 Kerr; "I could blay posior as dot lueinself." Schneider took no notico of the remark, but continued pulling the accordion this way and that, worrying it into expression. "Didn't I told yon to sehtop dot noise said the irate Kerr. "Vot for you maig so much noiso That instant the music cc.iso.l.

A thu 1 was heard, followed by the exclamation, "Oh. mcin Ki aoious and Korr was seen departing rapidly while a torrent of blood from his nose deluged his shirt bosom. Noxt day an officer was in search of Sehnoider with a warrant. This morning tho search was successful, and Schneider was produced before Justice Engle in Justice Goetting's Court on Iho charge of assault and battery. Kerr not appearing the musician was discharged.

The price or silver in London is reported at 1 1 penco per ounce making tho New York equivalent for tine bars about 07 cents. Alehisou first mortgages are selling in Boston within fl per cent, of tho highest price of the year.

Deposits of the various classes of bonds under tho plan of reorganization are increasing daily. It is not probable that rates on corn will be advanced, as the Grand Trunk and tho Haltimoro and Ohio refuses to put up the tariff. Tho movement of the staple will be light, as corn is too low in the West to admit of liberal shipments into tho distributing centers. Ktociis wero active and strong early this afternoon, when there whs a recovery in the coal shares, and, later, a very decided advance in Sugar Trust, which stimulated an improvement in the other trust properties. Another featnro was a well sustained rise in 1'ipe Line Certificates, in Itiohmond Terminal and in Hocking Yalley.

Miss Mary Toole's Startlinsr Experience With a Pair of Runaway Horses on Seventh Avenue.

Yesterday afternoon the attention of tha passengers upon a Seventh avenue car which was passing Berkeley phico was attracted by the peculiar expression upon the face of a stylishly dressed and lino looking young lady who was driving a spirited team of horses attached to an open four seated carriage. The young lady was Miss Mary Poole, eldest daughter of S. G. Poole, a wealthy lumber merchant oT South Brooklyn, who lives at the corner of Seventh avenue and Third street, and the expression upon her features indicated that she had lost confidence in her ability to manage her nervous, high strung horses. Just as the car had passed the foot of Berkeley place Miss Poole turned her horses from the smooth asphalt on to the track behind tho car and followed it two blocks to the livery stable of B.

C. Holltngsworth. at the corner of Union street. Whether she nulled the wrong rein or whether tho horses took sudden fright is not known, but instead of entering the stable they sheered up upon the sidewalk and started upon a run. At the corner of President street the curb is lined with posts, supporting the awning in front of a grocery store.

The forward right wheel of the carriage struck one of the posts and was badly smashed, and (lie shock threw Jfiss Poole, who still clung to the reins, forward over tlr.i dashboard on to tho frame supporting the polo. The horses, by this time thoroughly frightened, rushed madly up Seventh avenue. At the corner of President street somo workmen who were repairing the avenue at that point Btarted out to stop the runaways and then drew back. Tho horses kept on their wild run, Miss Poole still pluckily clinging to Hie reins, and at Third street turned down toward Sixth avenue. It seemed to the crowd thai had by this time gathered that tho young lady would certainly meet with a most horrible death, for her head wai apparently dragging upon the rough cobble stoni.

s. Tho fact that she never let go her hold upon the reins undoubtedly saved her life, as by so doing she was prevented from falling under the wheels. As the team reached Sixth avenuo tho horses slipped upon the stones and fell, throwing Miss Poole out. Shu was picked up in an insensible condition and carried into a neighboring house whore she was soon aftorattendedbs Dr. Thomas Wilde, of 121 Seventh avenue, who prononnced her injuries serious but not fatal.

A coupe was sent for and the young lady was taken home. "My daughter," said Mr. Poolo this morning, "is a skillful horsewoman and I cannot account for her losing control of the horses yesterday, except by tho fact that they had not been out of the stable for four or five days and wero thii.i naturally a little frisky. She had taken some young lady friends for a drive in the park yesterday morning and, having loft them at their houses, was driving the horsos back to the stable. Her injuries aro not very serious.

Her right hip and elbow wero badly bruised and the shock to her system was, of course, very great. Hor clinging on to tho lines undoubtedly saved her from a most horrible death." At tho livery stable tho foreman said that tho horses were not fit for a lady to drive. This is the second time they havo run away," said he, "and in my opinion they would do. so every chanco they got." WILL P.E EXTEIt THE PRIZE RING. John S(iiar), o.v Haiitnm WeiR ht Climn Itioti, Will Try it Acain.

John Stnart, of 249 Central avenuo, this city. in a letter to tho Eaoi.e, says that ho proposes to venture into the prize ring once more. He is the ex bantam weight champion of tho world and is regarded as a little pugilistic wonder. For some time past his health has been quito indifferent, but he is now recuperating rapidly and will bo in a condition to faco an antagonist beforo Spring is far advanced. Ho is tho hero of sixteen lights, conquering among other exeel ent bantams, Eugene Hornbacker, Hugh 1arkins, Frank Moore, Jack Prazer, Hike Williams and John Banks, tho colored middle weight champion.

His record is not yet clouded by a single defeat. When he shies his castor into the ring again it will bo as an opponent of Ike Weir, tho Belfast spider. They will fight fifteen rounds with four ounce gloves at 118 pounds. Whether he wins or loses it will be Stuart's last contest. He is a sturdily built young gentleman, whose measurement, taken by Dr.

Buffet, is as follows: Chest, inches; oxpauded. 40 inches: bicep 12 inches; drawn, 13J4 inches; forearm, 12 inches; neck, fifteen inches. Like most suc cessful pugilists, Stuart is most inoffensive in disposition, genial, modest and good natured. He is instructing a large class of pupils.

Brooks Gate tho Edifice to His Wife, Who Deserted Him, and He is Arrested for Arson. William A. Stamm, principal of the Beikley Place Primary School, was on his way to school just before 0 o'clock this morning when he saw a man coming out of the basement of tho house at 100 llcrkeley place. Ho knew that the house had not been occupied for soino time and stopped to look at the man. As ho did so he saw smoke ris ing from the basement windows.

Ho went in and found a pile of wood on fire in the mid dle of the kitchen floor. He threw some water on it and quickly extinguished the blaze. Then ho went into his school, which is next door to tho unoccupied building. Hj had not been there very long when someone told him thai the house next door was on fire. He ran into the basement again and found that a second fire had been started a few feet from tho former one.

He put it out and then said that tho wood had been Maturated with kerosene oil. An empty kerosene oil can was close at hand. As Mr. Stamm came out of the house he saw tho man whom he had first seen coming out of the basementstandiiig across tho street. Ho informed Oflieer Johnston, of the Tenth Precinct, that two attempts had been made to set lire to the house.

Ho pointed to the man on the sidewalk and said that he had every reason to suppose that he had started the tires. Johnston took the man to the station, where he gave his name as John S. Brooks, 50 years old. Firo Marshal Lewis was notified and once began an investigation. Brooks, when interrogated, said that ho had formerly owned the house and lived there with his wife.

IIo made the property over to her, and then she deserted hi He was forced to leave it, and wont to board at 1 ",0 Adelphi street. He said he was an inventor. I got tireM of looking at the house whoro I had spent so many happy days," ho explained, and made no my mind that I would bum it down. This morning I bought some wood, and built a nice little lire in the middle of the kitchen floor. Then I stood across the street to watch the blaze, bnt tho principal stopped the fun.

Then I got somo more wood and bought 4 cents' worth of kerosene oil. I poured the oil over the wood and put a match to it. Then you ought to havo seen it blaze," he shouted glee fully, jumping up and rubbing his hands togeth er. "1 thought sure it would go that time, lor it burned to the queen's taste, but the principal again stopped my fan. I was making up my mind to try it tho third time when tho officer arrested me.

It is too bad. The house ought to be burnod down. I hate to see it standing thero." Brookswas arraigned before Justice Pettersen, in the Adams streot Police Court, later on and was remanded for examination. Firo Marshal Lewis and the police aro in doubt 'whether tho man is drunk or insane. The house in Berkeley place is now owned by Henry H.

Bogart, who has an office at 97 Nassau street, New York. THE PARK C0JI.UI.SSI0XERS Listening; to Jccr Morion and Appoint ing I'olM omuii.

The buck came from tho Adiron dacks, and was provided with a special wire cago at the park. He beat and butted his way through the wire work and ran about the park, pursued by a number of policemen and other employes.

Ho was finally caught near the lower entrance, at tho Boulevard, by Special Oflieer Hilyer, but not until ho had horned Hilycr's coat into ribbons. It was thou found that one of the buck's legs was broken. Ho was placed in tho cage again and his leg was set and put in a plaster cast. Captain McNamara said that about two years ago, a deer escaped from tho park and made its way to neai' Fort Hamilton. There it plunged into the water and was caught by somo fishermen half way over to Staten Island.

Tho Commissioners having duly considered these deer stories proceeded to the business before them. They had little to do. The most important was the appointment of those policemen: G. B. Hilyer, T.

Ihs Sng nr CombinR Not Dismayed by tlie Saprcmo Court Decision Casting About lo Avoid thn Law. Notwithstanding the adverse decision handed 3owii yesterday by the General Term of the Supreme Court against the sugar combine, the tie offices of Did concern, at 1 10 Walljstrect. New fork, this mormim wero crowded1 husy men nd the small army of clerks employed there wore rushing about just as they did when the Jrust was at the heiuht of its prosperity Hid controlins the sugar market of the world. Mr. Theodore Havemeyer, the president of Iho triiflt, was not in his luxurious private office uhen representative of the BaXii.K called tliero, but one of lits who wan a)wil whether the members of the trust were surpriscl at tha decision of Judges Van JJrunt, Daniels and Brady, mid whether the combine intended to appeal to a higher court from the decision, said: "Ve arc not much worried over the decision of the General Term and you can nafely nay that it will not effoct tho business of the trust or its eventual success.

We expect to continue to run our refineries over in Brooklyn Just the same and give employment to our men." General Pryor, who has been conducting tho case against the sugar trust, said: "The decision applies to every refinery in the State belonging to the trust, and wo will fiirlit tin's triiHt and all the other trusts to the bitter end. The Standard Oil trust is just as much concerned in yesterday's derision us the smrar trust."

At a late hour this afternoon another rumor wag current on Wall tt et to the effect that the trust intended to move its refiners over to New Jersey and establish company in that Stato, and that its ostensible object would be thu manufacture and sale of machinery. The general opinion on 'Change to day is that tfie decision is a crushing blow to all the trusts. VALDES' SIDE OF THE STORY.

Now York. 8s Wick Bay, Moiliterraceaii ports, Now York, Hb Med itcrrauean port. New York. Bj City of Waahing'ou, Vera Cruz and Hmvana, New That Was Contributed for Campaign Purposes. Mysterious About the Disposi tion of Rcnblican Funds bj Volunteer Agents Upon Whom They Were He.towed.

Democratic politicians are greatly amused by tho plaint of Republicans who claim that a big boodle was used for the purposo of beating Col onil Baird. Tho amusemont grows out of the fact that tho Republicans were supplied with a large corruption fund sent over from New York, and hilarity is hoightoned by the additional fact that the agouta entrusted with the greater portion of this boodle clung to it. It is comm report that tho Republican Campai gn Committee was buncoed by men who were expected to purehaso tho colored and lodging house voto. In the last presidential campaign these very same political contideiico operators were given something like by tho Republican Campaign Committee. With this money votes were to bo purchased for the Republican oandidato for President.

Localities were indicated in which votes were to be captured. When tho returns were all in tho figures demonstrated plainly that thc JJ.8,000, if used, had not accomplished the results promised. Subsequent investigations by members of the Republican Campaign Commit tee satisfied them that the milk of the $18,000 had been retained by the men to whom tho money had been paid for distribution. Tho handlers of theso thousands of dollars were asked for an accounting; they declined to stato how the monej' had boon use they did not furnish any trustworthy evi dence showing that the fund had been used at all. Yet this year they came to the front, again with unique audacity, and surprising as it may appear, were cordially received by tho Republican managers.

They professed to able to do great things in behalf of the Republican candidates, if supplied with fun Is, and finally did secure a large slice of tha Piatt bo idle. Democrats point gleefully to the fact that in tho wards where tho Republican boodlers promised to largely increase their party vote, tho Democratic candidates made substantial gains. Democrats say that the Republican politicians who are charging that the colored and cheap l.idofiug house vote was purchased for Demo candidite i at the ra.to of $10 per head make this charge simply for the purpose of covering the fact that the men who were given the Piatt boodle hold it still. Of course, it is conceded that even if tho Republican boodlers had distributed every dollar banded Hum, the result would not have been changed. Mayor Chapin's handsome majority, the support which he received from thousands of high toned Republicans, is proof positive that nh boodle, could have defeated him.

The people, Republicans as well as Democrats, wero for him, and corrnptionists could not act his Honor aside. A few days before election the Republican Campaign Committee congratulated itself on the fact that Albert Daggett aud ex Senator Jacob Worth professed to bj very desirous of seeing Colonel Baird elected. It will be remembered that Mr. Worth, when defeated for ronomination, ma le several vigorous remarks, which were regarded as a declaration of war against the Republican candidate for Senator. A few days before election Mr, Daggett did some missionary work with Worth, and then tho ex Senator was said to bo desirous of assisting the Republican candidates.

The work which Worth did for Schlenten, the Republican nominee for Senator, has Ijeeu lost sight cf in the election of McCarren. Tho latter carried the Sixteenth Ward. Tho Nineteenth Ward was once one of Daggett's strongholds, as lri. as being Colonel Baird home. Tho colonel's co paratively small vote in the Nineteenth Ward grieves Mr.

Daggett, and causes some comment among Republicans who overestimated the ex Sheriffs influence. Tho Democracy is not only victorious, but unito'd, while all signs point to bitter factional troubles in the Republican camp. FOR THE DIET A Fair Opened in the Johnston Huildins' This Afternoon. The bazar in aid of tho Brooklyn Diet Dispensary was opened this afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Johnston Building, Junction of Flatbush avenue and Fulton street. The whole floor was occupied by the various departments.

The Com niittee of Arrangements is composed of Mrs. C. H. Ferry, Mrs. R.

Fithian, Miss Brandeis, Mrs. James L. Farley and Mrs. George It. Fowler.

The extent of their work may be imagined by tho fact that at 0 o'clock this morning the rooms were entirely bare. In the main room is the novelty or 101 booth, presided over by Miss Brandeis; fancy table, by Gcorgo Allin; an apron table, decorated with snowballs, in charge of Mrs. Nutt; another fancy booth, in tho hands of Miss Hewitt; doll table, decorated with eunids, in charge of Sirs. Pratt: a children's table, by tho King's Daughters; cake booth, twined with clus ters of grapes, under the direction of Mrs. Thomson.

The intervening spaces between the different booths are stacked with palms and ferns. Tho material used in trimming is pink, and makes a very pleasant contrast with tho dark green of the plants. In the balcony above is Miss Otis, an adept in the Bcience of palmistry. In the room beyond the refreshments are served, Mrs. Peter Bogart being in charge.

Lemonade will be dispensed from a large silver punch bowl. A novel fcaturo is tho country grocery room, in which one may buy all sorts of groceries. Still another room, trimmed in pink and gold, is devoted to the serving of beef tea. chocolate and tea. Miss C.

SIRS. JIEA.VEY'S ADVENTURE. Two niirlam Pay IDer a Viuil During; Bcr laiisbaml's Absence. There was an incident which happened in the life of Mrs. Annie Moanoy, of 2 7 Smith street, yesterday afternoon which it will take some time for her to forget.

The house where Mrs. Mcancy lives is situated between Sackett and Degraw streets. Sho lives on the first floor with her husband and small family. Yesterday afternoon as she was pursuing the customary routine of housework she heard a loud rapping at tho entrance. She opened tho door.

Two men stood on the stoop. They were unknown to her. "What do you wish asked Mrs. Meany. "We want money," they both replied, gruffly.

"I have no money," said tho lady, "but I will give you something to eat. I have bread, and you can have all of that that you desire." "We want money, not bread," said one of them. Tho lady slammed tho door, but boforo she could lock it it was forced open. One of tho men Beized her and Bmothorod her cries. Sho struggled a nd succeeded in releasing herself from her captor.

The other intruder was meanwhile rifling tho house. Tho lady ran through the hall, but was pursued and captured by the burglar, who held her and, drawing a knife from his pocket, threatened to cut her throat if she did not keep quiet and show where she kept her money. Again she broke from his grasp and getting to the window, screamed for help. The would be burglars, alarmed by her cries, mado their escape. BKIRE POSTAL COLLECTION'S.

Hubert came from Albany, whore he was one of tho lieutenants of tho colored Democratic leader, Matthews.

A cream colored top coat, set oil' with a red bout onniero; shepherd plaid trousers, a glossy silk tile and a diamond studded scarlet neekerchiel was his favorite combination in dress.

IT IS INVALID. The Charter of the BlackwelJ's Island Bridge. An Opinion From the General Term Afrlniiinfr Jndgre Yau Brnnt's Decision. Dr. Baiuer Will Appeal.

Dr. Thomas Rainoy, who for the past nnartor of a century has given up tho greater portion of his time to projecting plans for bridging the East River at Astoria, across Blackwell's Island, to New York, has received another set back in the courts. The Long Island Bridge Company, of which ho is tho head, made an application several monfhsago for a commission to appraise the value of lands on Blackwell's Island to bo taken for the bridge. Argument was had before Judge Van Brunt in tho New York Supreme Court last March and tho application was denied. 'I he company appealed to tho General Term and Judge Van Brunt's position has been sustained by tbat body.

The points of the decision are as follows: First. That tho laws of the State of New York under which the company was organized did not provide for a railroad bridge. Second. That the original charter was forfeited by failure on the part of the company to begin the work of construction within the time speciiied by the cliarter. Third.

Tbat the Law of 1885, Chanter 392, under which the new cliarter was granted, is unconstitutional. Fourth. That tho new charter was forfeited by failure to begin work by May 30, 1888, as required by the charter. Vanderpoel, Green Cuming, counsel for tho company, claim that tho real point upon which tho adverse decision was given by Judge Van Brnnl and sustained by the General Term is that the law under which the now charter was granted is unconstitutional, inasmuch as it gave the company tho right to build a railroad over tho proposed structure in direct violation of the General Railroad act of Tlie counsel of tho company contend that this is an error and that the act does not givo the company the right to build a railroad over the bridge: that the railroad and bridgo structures were entirely different matters, and that tho former was an after consideration upon the completion of the latter. It was the intention of the act to havo tho structure built sufficiently strong for the nlaeing of tracks upon and operation of a railroad over, but so far as the actual building of the railroad in connection with and upon tho strength of the bridge charter was not the intent of the act.

Mr. Cuming Baid that the case would be carried up to the Court of Appeals, and expressed the belief that the decision by the General Term would bo reversed there. The land which the company made application to secure through tho commission belongs to the State and under the charter of tho City of New York it can only bo acquired from tho State upon application by the city authorities. This tho city has neglected to do, aud theeompany has thus far boon unable to force tho authorities into that position. The company has acquired property in both New York and Long Island City, but without the Blaekwell Island rocks, upon which to place two of the center piers, the proposed plan of the bridge cannot be carried ont.

This is only a very small percentage of the difficulties and barriers that havo been placed in Dr. Rainey's path during all these years of struggling for tho consummation of hi great plan. He has frequently expressed the opinion that had ho consented to take in certain politicians, which he refused to do, the bridgo would by this time bo, in all probability, on a fair way toward completion. A HEAVY SENTEXCE. A Voitng Tonsil WHO Assaulted Officer ITJ lane y.

Thomas Ryan 24 years old, of 50 High street, was arraigned before Jtntico Petterson, in the Adams streot Police Court, this morning, on a charge of assault preferred by Oflieer Mullaney, of tho Fourth Precinct. Tha assault occurred last Sunday at the corner of Fulton and Front streets. Mullaney, who was returning to his station after supper, saw a number of men fighting. Ho caught bold of Ryan, and in the scullb Ryan was knocked down. When he was lying on his back ho kicked Mullaney in tho right eye.

Ryan got on his feet again, and ho and the oflieer fought for several minutes. Ryan was finally overpowered with tho assistance of Second Precinct officers aud locked up. Mullaney received a very black eye from the kick. Mullaney told the story as above this morning and was corroborated by several officers from the Second Precinct, who witnessed the fight. Ryan, in his own behalf, said that ho was in Boatty's liquor store with Officer Mullaney when the proprietor put him out.

He said that MuUiuiey followed him out and knocked him down. "Never mind that part of it," interrupted Justice Petterson. "The oflieer had as much right in the saloon as you had." Ryan had nothing more to say, and Justico Petterson sentenced him to the Ponitoutirry for oue year and to pay a fine of $500. Ryan has served two terms in the Penitentiary for bnrglary. Six years ago he was caught robbing the safe in the Brooklyn Railroad Company's office and got two years for that act.

THEY ARE ALL KNOCKED OCT. Gives Practical IJvitlcncc of 80 i in Uucen. A careful computation of tho voto in Queens County shows that tho County Democracy's county ticket was beaten throughout becauso it did not receive Gleason's support. Baylis and Corey, tho Democratic candidates for coroners, are defeated by Goodrich and Cooley, Republicans. They were not supported by Mayor Gleason, who had two candidates of his own party in tlio field, aud gave them 2,500 Democratic votes.

The Republican candidate for superintendent of poor is elected for tho same reason that the coroners were. It is clearly demonstrated that without Gleason's support no Democratic vi ctory can be won in Queens County or in the First Senatorial District. HAS SHE TWO IiU.SHA.V05?
