Albert Pulitzer Appeared in tourt, Albert Pulitzer, publisher, of the Morning Journal, appeared in the Tombs Police Court, New York, yesterday, to answer a charge of criminal libel preferred by Mrs.

Fanny Kellogg Bachert, an operatio singer, who is prof essionally known as Fanny Kellogg. In her affidavit she states that sue was. married at the Hotel Brunswiok, on April 30, to Max Bachert, and is 32 years old. The alleged libolous.article is tt lengthy ono and appeared In the Journal of May 24. It is to the effect that the plaintiff had lost jfcor mind, charges impropriety in her marital relations, and ridicules her conduct in general.

8he avers that the article has injured her reputation as an artist and exposed her to ridicule. The complainant was in court with ex Judge Fuller ton and Hamilton R. Squier as counsel, while the defendant was represented by Ernest R. Dos Pasaos. Justice Whito went into a briof examination and Counselor Squior was placed on the stand.

He testified to having requested a retraction of the statements complained of and Bald that on the following day an article appeared which, rather than being what was asked, aggravated the On another occasion he called on Mr. Pulitzer, who told him was not responsible for the publication of tho article and had no knowledgo of it. The publisher offered to print anything which witness or his client desired. A motion to dismiss the complaint was made by defendant's lawyer on the ground that the accused's responsibility for the damaging article was not shown, and that under Seotion 246 of the Penal Code, an editor is not accountable for any articles which appear in his paper of which he is in ignorance. He requested an adjournment until June 22 to presont more elaborate arguments on the subject, and no opposition bolng made the examination was adjourned to that dato.

In the meantime Mr. Pulitzer was paroled in his lawyer's custody. SPORTS AT PROSPECT PARK. Base Ball Matchem Which Afforded Amusement to Many Spectators. The three matches of tho Long Island Amateur Association's championship series, played at tho park yesterday, did not result exactly as anticipated, inasmuch as tho Dauutlosa nine, who wore expected to take tho Bedford boys into camp as prisoners, found tho youths in question to be as much opposed to cap turo as the Turk was who was taken prisoner by Pat.

The atory goes that Patrick called out to his brother soldiers that he had captured a prisoner. "Bring him in," they cried. "Bedad, but ho won't come," replied Pat. "Then come along yourself," thoy retorted. "Be jabers, but he won't let me," was the answer.

It was the same yesterday in the caso of the Dauntless and Bedford nines, as the appended score shows He Refuses to Sign the monthly Fay Rolls and the Commissionere Declino To Remore Secretary Sanborn. Boston, June 2. Governor Butler has refused to sign the warrants for the paymont of the monthly payrolls of various State Institutions under the charge of the State Board of Health. Ex Governor Talbot of tho Board has address, ed a long letter to the Governor, reinforced by the opln ion of ex Governor Gaston, to tho effect that officers appointed by the Board are not required to tako the oath of office as claimed by the Governor. Ex Governor Talbot's letter is a very strong ono and calls tho Governor's attention to tho fact that a large number of dependent employes, somo of them women, have their pay withheld, and aro needy creditors of the Commonwealth, whose claims the Stato by law it bound to respect.

Tho Board is unable to say whether the Governor's action is based on the advice of his council, or ii the result of his own judgment, and also wishes to ascertain whether his action is based on tho form or substance of tho claims in question. Tho Board holds that the Governor has no right to withhold hiB approval of olaims duo an appointee of tho Board, and tho letter hints that legal prosecution may bo requisito to enforce theso claims. The letter sayB that the authority and discretion of the Executive is a proper and wholesome Bubject for every citizen to discuBs, and the allusion to it in tho letter must not bo taken as discourteous. The lettor adds that tha legality of Mr. Sanborn's appointment aa inspector not dependent upon Governor Butlor's sanction, and tho Board must treat such officers as duly appointed and qualified and entitled to compensation.

A communication was sent by the State Board of Health to Qorcrnor Butler to day, In which they ny that after carefully examining tho Govornor'a various communications they do not find that evidence of intentional disrespect to tho Governor which would make it necessary to remove Mr. Sanborn from hia place aa secretary of tho Board. An order was adopted declaring tho office of assistant superintendent of the almshouse, which has hitherto boen held by by Thomas J. Marsh, vacant. SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENTS.

Preparations for Opening the Sea son at Long Branch. Some of the People who will Occupy Cottages During the Summer Aotors and Actresses by the Seaside The Police and the Gamblers, Hotel Keepers and the Bonanzas They Anticipate. Special Correspondence of the Eagle. Long BnAScn, Juno 2. Although one President of the United States has lived and another has died here, although tho resident population of tho place all the year around has doubled within two years and trebled within ten, although in the course of a single season a hundred thousand people make It their temporary home, Long Branch remains a village.

And of all villages it is the moBt villagy. The last train for New York loaves at six tho last mail loaves at quarter past four. Thero is no money order office money cannot be transmitted by telegraph. These matters will bo remedied of course when the season opens, but until then and during the enttro Winter tho residential population of Long Branch aro subject to a good many disabilities. The villago is Democratic by a majority of three to one, the governing body being composed of seven commissioners, four of whom aro elected while the other three are appointed by the judge of tho Supreme Court of the county, A PARTIAL OPENING.

Decoration day witnessed a partial attempt to put tho Branch iu condition to receive Summer visitors. Lelaud camo down, unlocked the front door of the Ocean Houso, took a bath and a drive on tho beach and went homo by the evening train. Howlaud, who seema to have as many hotels as ho has fingers and toos, opened tho Old Continental, in which years ago Jim Fisk used to sport his rotund flguro and John Doyle, who ran the Continental Hotel in Philadelphia for Bixteen yoars and catered to the million on tho Centennial grounds, put the Central in working order and announced his purposo of keeping it open all the year round. tho gloomy looking West End Hotel, tho Elberon, the United States, tho ManBlon and a number of other of tho giant caravansaries on tho beach aro still waiting patiently for tho Fourth of July. A walk along the boach in the evening is sombor and lonesome, and weird as a stroll through Necropolis.

A month, however, will make all the difference in the world to tho appearanco of tho hotels at the Branch, and although nothing is doing at present in their line evory hotel keopcr I havo met is cheerful as to the prospect. "This will be as good a year as last," said one of them to mo "and during last season tho West End alone cleared ninety one thousand dollars." THE COTTAOES. On tho registor of the Central Hotel, one day thlB week, was observed tho bold autograph of no less a personage than George W. Childs, of Philadelphia. Ho had come down to look after his cottage, which is one of the finest on the beach aud is always kept in good order.

He and his family will occupy it from tho 17th of this month. Gonoral and Mrs. Grant come early in he season and tho Goneral has already been down to look after the building of a stable in the Queen Anno tyle, which is being built among the fir trees that surround his cottage. Daniel Dougherty, the Philadelphia orator, has a cottage hard by. The splendid cottage in which General Garfield died, and which was owned by Mr.

C. C. Francklyu, of the Cunard Line of steamers is rented by Dr. Smith, of Philadelphia. The Wallack cottage is already tenanted, tho younger mombers of the family enjoying themselves in aud around it as though this were tho height of the season.

Tho old billiard room attached to the Wallack cottage has been turnod into a real estate office in the day time and a practicing place for tho Long Branch baud iu the oven ing. Horace White, of the Evening Poet, has engaged a pretty little placo on Ocean avenue aud will occupy it toward the ond of the mouth. The Hooy cottage, which is in reality a mansion, is in magnificent order and, as usual, one of the first sightB to which tho attention of visitors is directed. William Hondorson, of tho Standard Theater, has a fino bouse on Cedar avenue, as also has Frank Chanfrau, who is one of the traditions of tho Branch. I saw him driving an exceedingly unprotentious steed yesterday along the avenuo and could not holp remarking how much ho has aged within the past year or two.

The death of his brother a month or so ago was a great shock to him they had been very close friends, and it is said that from hiB brother's experiences in the old Fire Department Frank got his idea of tha character of Mose. Maggie Mitcholl, whose house was for years the finest at Long Branch, ia hero, BpriBhtly as ever. Her husband, Mr. Henry Paddock, drives her and other members of tho family along tho avenue on lino afternoons behind two of tho best horses to be found even in this center of thoroughbreds. It is gratifying to be able to say, at a time when the morality of actors and actresses is being freely canvassed, that there are two ladies of tho profession resident in Long Branch of whom all porsona speak with tho highest reBpect.

They aro Maggie Mitchell aud Mary Anderson. The latter lady, as you are aware, sailed for Europo on Tuesday, but mado her homo hero for several weeks provioUBly. Mrs. Edwin Adams, the widow of one of (he brightest and manliest of actors, has made great improvements in and around her cottage on Park avenue, and. Oliver Dowd Byron has also refitted his country house, inside and out, CLUB HOUSES.

A sure sign of the near approach of tho season might have been observed yesterday. In front of the great Iron Pier stood a knot of New York gamblers, who had been prospecting all day for an available site on which to plant their littlo gamo." Tho supervision of tho polico in this matter is not vory stringent, and in fact the police themselves are about as numerous as four leaved shamrocks. One of those gentlomen, who is said to have had no fowor than thirteen gambling houses in the city of New York, told me that gambling was unquestionably a lost art in tho metropolis. The police are in downright earnest this time," ho said, "and have gone tho proper way to break it up. If we manage to do anything here, it will bo for only a short timo.

Thero is no money for gambling in tho people of Long Branch themselves. Did you ever hear how the Jerseyman managed to beat the game of kouo a thing that nobody else ever succeeded in doing?" I answered that I had uot. Well," ho said, the cards wero sold for 25 cents, and five Jerseymen subscribed 5 sents apieco and sont a up to play it. Of course, that sort of thing wouldn't do; and the keno men retired iu disgust." RAILROADS AND STEAMBOATS. The fast trains of the Pennsylvania and Jersey Central companies are the favorites with the business men here, but, strango to say, there is a difference of only ten minutes between the all rail route and the line which takes you from New York to Sandy Hook by water, and thence to Long Branch by the carB.

Tho all water route does not open until the 17th of tnis month, but when it docs open it will unquestionably be tho most popular mode of travel. I walked down tho big pier yesterday the first ocean pier, by the way, ever built in this country and saw Mr. Frank Taylor, the Superintendent of tho company, overlooking a gang of men at work. How much damage has beon done to the pior during the Winter," I asked. Not a penny's worth," was the answer.

We are simply painting and furbishing up generally, to make the pier look handsome, and I think we shall succeed." I thought so too, for the pier in all its appointments is a model of neatness and beauty. LONft BRANCH JOURNALISM. Ono does uot expect metropolitan journalism In a village, but in point of personality the Long Branch papers occasionally outdo New York. Ono of them pleasantly remarks that the Mr. Joe Pulitzer who has recently bought the World is the same gentleman who, while bathiug at Long Branch, was mistaken for a shark, while another, in that part of its columns which is devoted to Asbury Park, contains this Bomewhat pointed paragraph Some time ago complaints were made to the commissioners by parents of young men that their sons stayed out nights somewhere in the park entirely too late.

Tho police were instructed to keep a sharp eye on places ill our town that were open until late hours. Ttiey have done so but, alas 1 they have discovered that some of our older citizens meet iu a building not far from the post office and gamble until four or five o'clock Sunday mornings. The boss mason was there the barber was there but that was no surprise to the police, as the barber was set down in that category, aud a well known citizen who would liko to have the voters think well of him was there. When accosted on tho street at four o'clock in the morning the mason said ho had lieen sitting up with a sick friend. Perhaps they wero not gambling, but tho clinking of money on the table gave the game a bad look.

Right glad am I that I am neither the boss mason nor the barber hereinbefore mentioned, and that littlo matters of this sort do not form the staple of the Eagle's news. P. SALE OF IiASD OX THE SOUND. Hon. J.

Lawrence Smith, ex Judge of Suffolk County, has purchased fifteen acres of land, part of the Carman estate, on the Sound, at Smithtown, and it is said that several handsome reaidencw will bo erected.

It is estimated that fully one million persons were at the fete. One hundred and forty wagons loaded with barrels of beer arrived on the ground during the morning and by noon all of this supply of beer had beon exhausted.

Tho Czar and Czarina on th eir arrival in the park during the afternoon were received with deafening cheers by the multitude. Large numbers of peasants had walked from the distant provinces to attend the foto. One of the features of this immense gathering was tho lack of disturbances, tho peoplo throughout the day behaving in a most orderly manner. Proposed Monument to Garibaldi. Rome, Juno 2.

FINE MUSIC LISTENED TO BY THOUSANDS. The First of the Saturday Afternoon Concerts in Prospect Park. The twelfth season of Saturdny afternoon concerts began at Prospect Park yesterday, Eden's Twenty third Regiment Baud performing tho music specified in tbe programme. Tho day was a delightful one in every respect, and the throng which gathered to hear the musio found the air and the scenery as highly enjoyable as "the conoord of sweet sounds" that floated to their ears from tho music stand. The trees were in full leaf, the flowers in bloom and tbevordure of the coiiiinons as fresh to the eye as it was soft to tho tread.

All the benches in the grove near the stand were occupied before the concert began, aud hundreds stood or reclined upon the yielding turf, while hundreds of others promenaded up and down the" footways. A great many also caiue in carriages, which they occupied while the concert was in progress. There was a fair proportion of gentlemen present, but the greater number were ladies and children, and all were in holiday attire. But notwitstandiug the showiness of many costumes aud the attention to the prevailing fashions, there was a homelike feeling manifest in the throng that testified to the genuine enjoyment of the season. Tho music began at four o'clock with tho performance of Faust's Russian March," that served to notify stragglers of the time and the place where tbe feast of reason was being terved up, which was in the grove of the Xethermead, a name most appropriate to this enticing locality of the park.
