PERRY WANTS TO COLLECT THE BET. WANT NEW LEADERS. SPECIAL ADVEIiTISE.TIENTtJ. JAHES A. DEWLETT DEAD.

NO FAITH IN IT. HAVE NO HOPES. BADLY SOARED. 40'CIMEDira 6DGAB TRUST TROUBLES. Judge Collen Crams an Order on the Application far a Star This aftornoon Judge Cullen, of tho supreme court, granted an order to show cause why a stay should not bo iuaued in the suit of tho sugar trustees against tho corporations forming the trust.

The ordor is made returnable on Saturday next, when tho court will hoar argument to mako the stay a permanent one. Tho application was made by Attorneys Elihu Root aud Edward Shepard, and the order was asked for upon the ground that the iuterlooutory Judgment had boen entered before the motion to entor had been made and also upon the ground that the timo for some of the dofendants to interpose an answer had not expired a the time of tho filing. Broker Parks Was Rude, and Notv He Keeps Ont of the Way. Custom House Clerk Jamsa Ferry iB still looking for Robert H. Parks, tho big six footman who on Monday night last Insulted him in a Greene and Gates avenne car in this city, but up to 2 P.

M. to day Parks had managed to keep out of the way. Tho story of hia encounter with Parks wag told to day to an Eagle reporter by Perry, who roaidoB at 460 Quincy atreot, Brooklyn. "I was going home on Monday night," he said, "in a Greene and Gates avenue car, when somewhere noar the City Ha'U two ladies got aboard. A big man, weighing about 200 pounds, sitting next to me, arose and gave one of them his seat.

I could not do the same, because my right log was shot off during the war six inches below the hip joint, and I find it difficult to stand on my wooden leg. however, moved along so as to givo the ladies room to sit down. Tho man who had givon up his seat did not, however, like this, and greatly to my surprise he turned to me, and said that I was an infernal hog not to get up and give the lady a eoat Whon I told him I only had one log he said that I was a liar and offored to hot me $100 that my leg was not shot off during tho war. I took this bet and then he offered to bet me another $100 that I would not come to see him and take up tho first bet. I accepted both bets and considered them as made, and took his card as a guarantee.

Yesterday morning, accompanied by a number of my custom house friends, I visited the produoe exchange, where ParkB has his offlco, with the documents to show that I had told the truth about my leg, and eevoral hundred dollars to bet. Parks was, howovor, not thero. He had skipped, saying ho would be gone for five days. The brokevs at tho produoe exchange are, however, after him. and 'aa they have given me a visitor's tickot good for two weeks I expeot to get my money from him.

When I do I will givo it to tome charitable object." Mr. Perry is not a member of any grand army post, but he belongs to tho Ono Loggod veteran association that meets monthly in the city hall. He has received letters to day from a large number of peoplo congratulating him upon his conduct and offering him auy amount of money that he desired to bet against Parks. He has also received a number of callers. Perry has bean employed at th custom house for soventeon years and has ths good will of everybody there.

No one knows whero Parks is. USED HIS PLACE To Promote Hostility to Congressman Wallace. Tke Charge Brou ht Against Foretaaa Ronrke the Croiser Maina Ho Denies It Some Fowariul AffldaTiti oa Bth Sids the Cats. It is reported on very fair authority that there is no lovo lost between Congresunmi William 0. Wallace and Foreman Thomas Rourke, of the navy yard.

In fact it is asserted' that the former, though defeated for congress, being still a member of oongress and on the naval oommittee, is on a still hunt for the master shipftttor'a scalp. Having been defeated by so small a number of votes, and it being conceded that with, out the primary faction fight Mr. Wallace would have won, the young oongrossmau iB credited with something of animosity in his disposition toward those who fomented tho primary oontost. That Mr. Rourke in his position of foreman in charge of tho big cruiser Maine at the navy yard, with 500 men under him, actually used hia offioial position to lnfluonco votes against Wallace, being himself a known Benedict sympathizer, has not been proved.

But Mr. Wallace has in his possession several affidavits on the basis of which, it la said, he may make it very warm for foreman Rourke. One of these affidavits, made on October 8 by a shipfitter named Albert L. Davidson, is to the effect that on October 2, tho day of tho primary, Rourke requested him to vote at the primary election in tho Twentieth ward for R. D.

Benediot for congroas. On tbe same day Foreman Rourko made affidavit that ho did not so request Davidson. Rourko's side of the question is supported by Timekeeper James Henderson, who sworo that he asked Davidson if Rourko had requested him to vote for Benodict, and Davidson replied in the nogativo. An affidavit as to tho truth of tho lattor statement is made by ono John T. Williams, who was present when the conversation took place.

It appears that Rourke, hearing that Davidson said he tRoivrke had asked him to vote for Benedict, had the question put to him in tho presence of the witnesses aud then the whole party went and made their affidavits. A question which arises is whother a workman, with the knowledge that an offonso to the foreman might cost him his plaoe, would not naturally deollne to make an incriminating statement about him. An official at the yard told an Eagle repofter this morning that a workman who oould not read or write had come to him about election time and asked him if ho was obliged to voto as tho boss said. Ha was emphatically told that ho oould voto exactly as he ohose. Section 5,520 of the miscellaneous provisions governing the navy says: Every officor or other person in tho military or naval service who, by fores, threat, intimidation, order, advice, or otiierwise, prevents or attempts to prevent any qualified voter of auy stato from freely exercising the right of suffrage at any general or special election in such state, shall bo ned not more than $5,000 and imprisoned at hard labor not moro than flvo years.

Mr. Wallace need not, it is said, rely solely on tho oharges in tho affidavits above referred to for grounds against Rourke, for it is known that much friction has existed between tho foreman and officers of tho construction department for reasons that wore hinted in a Washington dispatch to the Eagle some months ago to the effect that thero was not nearly enough accomplished on the Maine for the amount of monoy spent for labor, and suggesting that numerous heelers wero buried from day to day in tho bowels of tho steel leviathan who conld not render much of an aocount for their day's pay. More recently it was reported that Mr. Ronike was in receipt of a sharp letter, taking him to task for allowing hia large force to knock off fifteen minutes before the bell rang to quit work at noon, a loss to tho government that would amount to considerable in tho aggregate. FRANK VREELAND DISCHARGED.

Itot Identiiied an One of the Twenty sixth Ward Bank Robbers. Frank Vreeland, the ex conviot arrested on suspicion of having had a hand in the Twenty sixth ward bank robbery, was discharged by Justico Keuna to day. The examination of the accused was held iu the Gates avenuo police court. President Jewell told the Btory of the robbery sub Btantially as has been published. Clerk Bookman, who left the bank to talk with the man in the buggy, who is supposed to have been ono of tho thieves, wheu asked to identify tha aocused as that mysterious individual, said: 'The defendant's face iB familiar to mo; I havo Been him before, but although ho 'looks like tho man for whom tho police aro looking, I cannot idontify him." A SCHOOL BOY INTOXICATED.

Iiivcaligratioa SbeinThat Ele Elad Been a Bartender's fttcsscnircr. Donald Sutherland, aged 13, a pupil in public school No. 0, at Sterling placo and Vandorbilt avenue, was token sick yesterday morning about 11:30 o'clock. Ambulance Surgeon Schuppau declared that ho was intoxicated and carried the boy to hia homo, 210 Fourth avenue. Upon investigation it was found that Donald had done an errand for George Sharp, bartender for James Quinn, at 205 Fourth avenue, and as a reward had boon given a drink of whisky.

Tho boy's parents refused to make a complaint against Sharp and tho matter was turned over to the children's society. Donald was arraigned in the Adams street court this morning on a chargo of intoxication. Tha oase was adjourned. LATE THANKSGime KVESTS. The Rov.

The mother and her employer wore busy in the kitchen, while little Clara wandered about the house until she at last found her way to the parlor and sat at tho piano. It is said that without over having seen such an instrument sho played "Home, Sweet Home." There aro those who may be incrodulous as to tho truth of the story, but they aro invltod to go Thanksgiving night to tho colored aged homo, on Dean Btreot, and they will hear Clara perform.

A meeting of tho regular Democratic club of the Twenty sixth ward was held last night in tho Howard houBe lodge rooms, and a committee appointed to go down town and seo tho leaders of the party. This club was organized some weeks ago for tho oxpress purpose of deposing tbe present ward leaders, and at eaoh successive meeting Borne accession to their ranks is announced from among the prominent Democrats.

Judge Waltor Smith, an old time DemooraKwas present last night aud said he was heartily In favor of tho movement. He added that if the present loaaers remained iu power much longer the ward would return a Republican majority instead of a Demooratio one, as heretofore. Already the supervisorship has been lost for two eucoessive terms on account of the stupidity and pigheadedness of the leaden, and it was time that somebody else was given a chanco to manage things. At a previous meeting a oommittee had been appointed to go down town to Wiiloughby Btreot, but as there was a division among the members of the committoo they had not gone. Ou motion this committee was discharged and a new one appointed.

It was ooniposod of Patriok Dobbius, George W. Alexander, Judge Walter Smith, George Green and Nicholas H. Malone. This committee will meet Friday and organize. At the meeting last week a resolution was introduced requesting the chairman to appoint a committoe to wait upon Secretary Emil Schiollein, of the ward association, and request a copy of the roll book.

That oommittee, consisting of John Berry, Patriok DobbinB, William Hart, W. H. Mlono and B. K. Morrie.made snch a demand on Judge Schiellein last night.

They imented to him apetition signed by twenty meuibars of the ward association, according to instructions ro ceived from Secretary W. A. Furey, of the Democratic general committeo. After waiting somo time Secretary Schiellein Baid that he would take until Saturday to consider bis answer. On Saturday morning tho committee will again make the demand, and if thoy are refused the roll book Secretary Furey will furnish thom with a copy.

ARREARS KAliR POSTPONED. Register McGuire has again postponed tho arrears sale, this time until Decombor 24. The delinquents aro paying up so rapidly that Mr. McGuiro considered a postponement advisable. SELLING A SITE.

Hugh McLaughlin's Offer the City Authorities. to The Jay Street Property Owned by Him to ba Furehasftd far the Use the Firo Dftpartoeut CeBMiesietter Esmis and the Experts. Mayor Chapin, City Works Commissioner Adams and Police Commissioner Hayden decided to day to purchase tho property 365 Jay Btreot, owned by ex Rogiater Hugh McLaughlin, and include it in a site for a new fire department headquarters. It immediately adjoins the building ocoupiod by ongino company No. 17, of the old volunteer fire department, and has beon need in connection with tho latter as a headquarters of the existing department for many years.

The mayor and the two commissioners conutituto what Mr. Chapin calls the "commission on medium and small sized Bites," and aro authorized by an aot of the legislature of 18S0 to pnrohase Bites and erect buildings for other than school purposes, the expenditure being limited to $500,000. Thero remains of this fund the sum of $100,000, the rest having beon expended for land and buildings for police purposes. Tho necessity of a nw hoadquartera th fire department is generally admitted Dy those who are acquainted with the affairs of tho depart" mont. On several occasions the board of estimate was asked to make provision for a suitable building, aa the present quarters are too limited and are otherwise unfit for the purposes of the department, but the board refused to allow the item, bo the law nf 1889 was passed to meet just such cases.

Fire Commissioner Ennis appeared before the mayor and his associates this morning and explained that the McLaughlin property was 25x107.6 feat. It contained a two story frame building, for whioh the city paid an annual rent of $750. If tho city should purchaso this property It would, with the adjoining property, have a site with a frontage of 50 feet and a depth of over 100 feet on which a suitable headquarters could be erected. Commissioner Ennis said he had asked a number of real estate dealers to appraise the value of 305 Jay street and bad received the following estimates i Daniel Ferry, Mortimer C. Earl, William H.

Graco, Charles A. Seymour $12, 500; D. AM. Chauncey, $12,000. Commissioner Ennia announced that he had roceived the subjoined letter from Mr.

McLaughlin John Fire CommUsioner Dear Sin The price of my property, S65 Jay Btreot, is $15,000 for flro department purposes. I have made inquiry and find that according to the different sales of property in that locality lately and the prices asked for tho adjoining property. I consider the price fair. Respectfully, Huoh McLaughlin. Mayor Chapin said that tho department ought to have a new headquarters, a building which would stand for at least a hundred years.

There was enough monoy. loft in the fund to purchaso a site and begin the erection of a building. Commissioner Ennis thought that a suitable structure oonld be put up for about $75,000. The present hoadquartors was totally unfit for the purpose. Mayor Chapin, in considering tho probable cost of a building, aBked Commissioner Adams how much tho Thomas Jefferson cost.

CommiBsionor Adams repliod $202,000, including $48,000 for the site. Mayor Chapin said he thought tho new flro headquarters need not be more than threo stories in height. If nocessary, it could afterward be made higher. Commissioner Ennis again referred to the appraisal of tho McLaughlin property, saying that he had made special offorts to get expert opinions. Dr.

Bernard, who lived directly opposite, the commiBsionor Baid, valuod his property, which was somewhat similar to 365 Jay street, at $10,000. On motion of Mr. Adams tho commisaion decided to purchaso 305 Jay street for $15,000, and after taking measures for the acquirement of the property, the meeting adjourned. IT ESCAPED THE POLICE. A Letter by Which the Union Victim Was Identified.

Itoad AroonK those who read in yesterday's Eagle of the man killed at tho Flatbush avenue station of the Union elevated railroad wero tho brother and sister of Eugene T. Brennan, aged 21, of 847 Seventeenth street. They thought the published description of the clothing fitted that worn by their brother. They went to the morgue at 10 o'clock last night and asked to see the clothing. The brother put hia hand in a pocket of the garment and drew out a letter addressed to Eugene F.

Brennan, H47 Seventeenth street. They wero satisfied that the deceased was the one they sought. Ho had beon absent from home since Sunday. They oould think of no reason why he should wiHh to commit suicide. The young man was engaged in the milk business.

MICHAEL BLARE'S QUEER CATCH. While Fivbintr He IlaulM Vp (he Body of a Drowned Man. Michael Blake, of 13 Hamilton avenue, went fishing yesterday afternoon off the North pier at the Atlantic dock. About 5 o'olook he started to pull in his line preparatory to going home, when ho found that he had a bite. He tried to pull up his fish, but was unablo to do bo.

Ho oallod upon a man who Btood noar aud between them they raised tha supposed fish to tho sur face. They were astonishod to find that they had pulled up the body of a drowned man. Tho corpse was removed to the morguo, where it was identified this morning as that of Martin Co' tello, a boilermaker, who had no home. DOES NOT LIKE HIS SOX IN LAW. August Kooht, a young grocery clerk, was mar ried secretly on November 0 to Mary, the young daughter of ex Policeman Thomas R.

Wilson. He was at that timo a boarder in the Wilson family at 100 Somera street. Mary's father subsequently got an intimation of the true state of affairs and Eochtwas ordered out of the houao and his wifo'i wedding ring was taken from her. In the absence of his father in law on November 13 Kocht btole into the house to see his wife. While he was there Mr.

Birkott belongs to the In vincibles. Tho Iuvincibles oonilder the action as unrepublican and calculated to oause more discord iu the organization.

A Strmy Scene nt the KntienalUt Canons This Jlornins Why Mr. Gladstone's Lelter Wan Not Bead at Yaiterdny'i Gathering by Justin McCarthy. Loudon, November 20. Aalormysceno occurred at the meeting of tho Parnellite members of the honse of commons held last eveniug, after the letter from Mr. Gladstone to Mr.

Morley had been made public. The aolionof Mr. McCarthy in not making known the contents of Mr. Gladstone's letter at the meeting of tho Parnellites yesterday morning was 6evorely criticised. A majority of the nationalist morabors present at the meeting laBt night said they had believed previous to the mooting in the morning that Mr.

Parnell, after his re olection, would not take an active part in politios for a few months. They now believe that if Mr. Gladstone's letter had been read at the morning meeting the result on the motion to retain Mr. Parnell in the leadership would have boon different. It was learned after the adjournment of the meeting that a Btrong feeling in favor of Mr.

Parnell's resigning tho leadership was manifested, bnt the minority vehemently opposed it. Tho fair (home rule) says that Mr. Gladstone's letter was designed to be read at the Parnellite meeting hold yeatorday, at which it was voted to retain Mr. Parnell in the leadership of the party. Somohow the letter waB not road.

Mr. JuBtia McCarthy had bean Instructed to inform Mr. Parnell of Mr. Gladstone's opinion that a change in the leadership of the Irish party was essential, but in tho haata of Mr. Parnell's arrival Mr.

Gladstone's opinion was not fully impressod upon him. Mr. Parnell's sudden presence, his past services, the outBide cruel talk against him and tho iustiuotive Irish loyalty prevailed over tho duties of tho Parnellites as to the necessity of the situation. The eyes of the party are now opened to the significance of the affair In England, which is nothing leas than whether home rule will be passed upon at tho next general election, or be Indefinitely ohelved. Had the Parnellites known this they could have oomo to but one conclusion.

We bolievo they will como to it to day. In conclusion the Star says it is confident that as patriots the home rulers have no alternative but to paaa a resolution that will enable Mr. Ghd utono to give the remainder of his life to their cause. Tho feeling that Mr. Parnell deceived tho members of the IriBh party at their meeting yesterday is so strong that a motion will probably be mado at the meeting, which will be held to day, to expel him from the leadership of the party, if he refuses to resign the leadership.

Mr. Gladstone has had frequent conferences with hiB colleagues to day. Afternoon Though last night Mr. Parnell refused to call a meeting of the Irish members of the house of commons a meeting was held in a room of the house to day. The room was oare fully guarded from Intrusion, a member of parliament standing guard at the door.

Mr. Parnell was present and presided. Silenoe was observed by overy member as ho entered the room. After calling the meeting to ordor Mr. Parnell explained that he had reconsidered his dotermlnation, and bad called the meeting at the written request of thirty eight members of the party.

Tho meeting lasted for half an hour. Thero was a great divergence of opinion manifestod throughont the disouBsion. No definite aotion was agreed upon, and tho meeting adjourned to rcassemblo at 6 o'clock this evening. Mr. McCarthy explained that ho did not communicate tho contents of Mr.

Gladstone's letter to the Parnellite meeting yesterday because Mr. Gladstone had requested him to consider it as confidential If he found that Mr. Parnoli contemplated spontaneous aotion. At the beginning of the meeting, Mr. McCarthy saya, he and his ool leagues were ignorant of the course Mr.

Parnell would pursue, the prevailing impression being that after receiving practically a vot of confidence he would retire from the head of the party, at any rate temporarily. After Mr. Parnell's unanimous re election Mr. UoCarthy found himself in a difficult position and concluded that nothing would be gained by reopening the question. The illness of Timothy Hoaly and the absence of MesarB.

Dillon and O'Brien embarrass the rank and file of the nationalist party. Cable dispatches were sent last night to the party's delegates in the United States giving the details of the crisis and asking for an expression of their views concerning Mr. Gladstone's ultimatum. Upon their reply largely depends the result of this afternoon's meeting. When Mr.

Gladstone entered the house of commons to day ho was loudly cheered by his liberal colleaeucs. Mr. Parnell also was present and occupiod his usual seat. Messrs. Gladstone and Morley held a conference thiB forenoon to consider the Eitnation arising from the re election of Mr.

Parnell. Ti'uITi, Mr. Uonry Labonchere's paper, to day abandons Mr. Parnell. HER HUSBAND KILLED PETER D9RAX.

A r.ctter Alleged to Havo Been Written to an Accused Man A movning paper of yesterday published what purported to bo a lotter from Mm. Polefskl to her hnsbaud, now an inmate of the jail at Jamaica on the charge of killing Jacob Wenucr at Queons. Tho letter advised him to tell the truth and raako a confe Bion.

Floyd Aguilar, colored, aged 21, and John I'leiffor, a GermaD resident of 1,070 Atlantio avenue, got in a quarrel iu John Hanlsy's saloon, at Atlantic aud Utica avonnea, this morning.

The DItplay of Troeps Hai Filled Then With Terror They Aro Ready to step Their Antics and Uire Up Their Nem From the Agencies. Omaha, November 28.

One result of the conference held yesterday was that an order has been Issued that there must bo less communication between tho whites and tho Indians. A. G. Assay, who was a post trader at Pine Ridge, and whoBe brother is similarly engaged now, was ordered off tho reservation yesterday. Just what his offense was is not givon out by the commandant, but it is likely he talked too much.

All day long yeBterday Indians have been coming in, and very quietly, too. Not a single word of trouble is seen or heard. Four more companies of the Becond infantry fronJ Fort Omaha have gone into camp at tho agenoy. The oavalry has moved back a mile from the post to bo nearor water. At army quarters bore last night it was given out that the Siith oavalry was to be removed at onoe from Texas and Mexico and quartorod at Fort Meade.

Reports from various towns along the reservation border' are to the effeot that the scare is dying out and excitement rapidly subsiding. All reports that tho Bantce Sioux of the Panca Indians are uneasy or inclined to become disciples of tho now Messiah are utterly false. The danoes that wero recently held there are what are known as grass dances, which arc not in any way similar to the ghost dance. The Winnebago Indians have been there on a. visit and tho grass dances were indulged iu as an entertainment to the visitors.

A Sec Bpecial from Pine Ridge, S. says that word was received through the government courior laot evening that 200 lodges of Rosebud Indiana were raiding the homes of settleM in the vicinity of Porcupine crook. The settlors themselves had flown in terror a weok ago. They left all their household goods togother with the stock. There are six persons usually iu an Indian lodge and the marauders, therefore, are supposed to number about one thousand two hundred persons.

General Wheaton and his command, oon slBting of four oompauies from Fort Omaha, has arrived in camp and consultation with officers on the situation at once held, the result of whioh cannot be ascertained. St. Paul, November 26. A Pioneer Press special from Pino Ridge, S. says that scouts arrived last evonlng who report that tha ghost dancers have concentrated their forces on the Porcupine and that to morrow Little Wound will ride in for a conference with the agent and General Brooke.

Until yesterday a large percentage of the Cheyenne Indians wore oamped with Red Cloud, but they have moved away from his camp and established oile of their' own. This aotion and tho willingness of the Cheyennos to join tho company of scouts has engendered a bitter feeling between tho two tribes and the alliance of the Oheyennes with the mili tcry, whioh is taking place, is likely to make the Sioux evon more bitter toward the soldiers than thoy have beou. Tho numbor of old men, women and children who are in camp around the agency increases steadily. It look as if tho dancers were senilug their famillos in so that they will be safe in caso it comcB to a conflict. Fout Sully, S.

November 26. It is evident from the developments of the last twenty four hours that hostile Indians from the Grand river, Cheyenne, Rosebud and Pine Ridge agenoicB aro massing at some point for a stand against the troops under General Brooks. From squaw men just in from Ziebach county it is learned that bandB of redmen In war paint have been panning through that country for several days moving southward. They were well armed with Winchester rifles, had plenty of ammunition and were well equipped with ponies. They wore uniformly insoleut and reticent.

The plaoe of meeting agreed upon Is reported to be a heavily wooded point on tho White river, ten miles above the mouth of the South Fork of the White river. This point is a day's haid ride from Fine Ridge agency and nearly as far from Rosebud. The squaw men havo been threatened with death by the hostilea and are running away from the Indian camps and giving up the secrets of the Sioux. They havo been excluded from all ghost dances and are subjects of special hatred. CniCAQo, 111., November 26.

A speeial dispatoh from Pine Ridge agency, S. says the Indians there are in a state of norvom terror, and that yesterday afternoon, when the soldiers wont out to drill, it waB with tbo utmost difficulty that a stampede was prevented. Torrible stories as to what the soldiers intend to do with them are in circulation among the Indians, aud thoy are constantly on tho alert keeping their ponies near at hand, roady to mount them at the first sign of an attaok. They Bay they do not want the soldiers to kill them, nor do they want to givo up their arms, bnt will do 10 If the soldiors insist upon it. THE COUNTY CANVASS.

Something Qneer and Aboxit the Way it Goes On. Friends of William J. Ooombs aro becoming somewhat anxious about the way in which the county canvass Is being conducted. It is not generally known that tho corrections in each ward are praotioally under tho oontrol of the individual supervisor from that ward. As far as the Third congressional district is concorned tho supervisors reprosouling tho wards comprising it are Thomas Fitchie, Sovonth; 8.

B. Jacobs, Thirteenth; W. 0. Oarrick, Nineteenth; M. 0.

Anderson, Twentieth, and Olin B. Lockwood, Twenty third, Republicans, aud W. P. Riggs, Twenty first, Democrat. Tho canvassers in every case are held responsible to these men for all errors, and tho significant fact that developed itself to day was that there are quite a number of uncorrected returns In the Republican dis triots.

However, no final action can be taken unless by a vote of the majority of the board. "I don't know when wo oan announce the vote in the Third congressional and Eleventh assembly dislriots," said Canvassers' Clerk Frank P. Barnard to day, "but on the face of the returns Coombs has a majority of 18 and Aspinall of 123." The supervisors acting as canvassers only sat for an hour and a half to day. They get $3 a day and mileage for their sorvicoB. THE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD.

Brazilian Visitors Receive a Warm Welcome. The War Shlp3 of Uo South American Kcpublie Escorted Up tho Bny by Uncle Sam' Vessels Amid tho I.oorains of CaoHsns and Flatter of Tho Brazilian war Bliip3 Aquidaban and Gu nnabara, which arrived and anchored off tho outbwcst spit, lower bay, late ycnterday afternoon, weiuhod anchor shortly after 8 o'clock thlu morning and steamed uluwiy up to a point oppo aite Twcuty fourth street. North rlrer, and caine to anchor. Tho nhipn wore escorted by tho Amoricxn gunboat Vorktown and tho dinpatch boat Dolphin in the following order: First tho Dolphin, followed, half a mile asteru, by tho Yorktowu; then came tho Brazilllan cruiser Aqmdauau, followed by tho corvette Guanabara, about the same distance intervening between them. Just as tho Dolphin passed quarantine tho guns at Fort Waduworth boomed forth a salute.

Slowly, in sinirlu tile, the fleet passod Inward. The waters of the bay were dotted with tnga and small Bailing craft, their decks tilled with interested spectators. At 0:45 the navy yard dispatch boat steamed out past the battery and fell into the line, three fourths of a mile ahead of the Dolphin. As ths latter passed the statue of Liberty tho colors were run np, and at tho same moment a whito smoko cloud belched forth from old Uastla William and cannon rotrcd out a welcome nine consecutive times. The Brazilian cruiser Aquidaban responded with fifteen tuns, After tho admiral salute was given from Governor's Island and responded to by the Brazilian fleet the two foreign vojseli, escorted by the Dolphin and Yorktown, steamed on up North river.

The combined fleet moved on in a stately, majestic way. The revenue cutter Chandler acted as a police boat to keep the other vessels out of the way on their conrso to Governor's Island and thou tho navy yard dispatch boat noted in a similar capacity on the steam up tho river. It was about 11 o'olock when the floet finally dropped anohor In their berths at the foot of Twonty fourth street. This will ba the permanent anohorago whiio tho floet remaius in the harbor. Tho United States ship Philadelphia, Admiral Gherardi's flanship of tho North Atlantio squadron, lay up the river about four hundred foet abovo tho Brazilian fleet.

Tho Philadelphia hat been there slnoe Sunday, waiting under orders from the navy department to welcome Admiral Baltazar da Sllviera. As tho ships manned the anchor ropes and let go, a salute was flred from the Philadelphia and the Brazilian flag ruu up the flagllne. The Aquidaban responded with a like saints and ran up tho and Stripes. Half an hour after Admiral Ghorardi, dressed in the uniform of rear admiral of the United States navy, attended by Captain Yatoa Stirling and tho rest of bis staff, came from the stepj of he Philadelphia and the admiral's boat was pulled to the Aquidaban. The party wont on board at 11:25.

Tho aides of the Aquidaban wore manned, the marine guard paraded and tho trumpeters and drummers playod tho admiral's tunc. The call lasted nearly half an hour, and then the United States officers wero pullod back to their vessel. The courtesy over Admiral De Bil viera, accompanied by his staff, went to the Fifth avenue hotel under the guidance of Admiral Walker's messenger. Admiral Walker, as tho representative of the President, and Lieutenant T. li.

31. Mason, as representative of the secretary of tho navy, wero in room 25 waiting for them.

A salute of thirteen guns in his honor was flred rrom the ordnauee dock and tho guests were escorted to the naval lycoum, where a marine guard saluted him and tho entire force of officers of the yard, iu full dress uniform, waited with Admiral Braino to welcome him.

The navy yard commandant with hiB staff will return the call this afternoon. INTER COLLEGIATE FOOf BALL. I'niversiKy of Pennr canin Wcu loyau at Wanliinctou Park. No one who went to Washington park this a ternoou to witness the game between the University of Pennsylvania and Wosloyan univorsity teams would question for a moment tho popularity of football. Although the tussle was indulgod in by elovens which are fighting for the tail end place in the inter collegiate series, there was an attendanoe that outnumbered any seen at Washington park to witness a similar gauio.

University of Pennsylvania, Weeloyau collogo, Princeton nd Yulo are all well represented. Tho oollege boys seem to bo intent on making an interesting litrugglo. This was tho first and laBt meeting of the teams this season, but both havo contested with Princeton and Yale. Tho Pennsylvania boys have made the better showing againBt these olnbs, but It has been alleged they did so by unfair means. Wes loyan defeated them last year, but from a comparison of the teams to day, tho odds appear to lie in favor of the Philadolphians.

Woilayau's rnah lino haB an average weight of 174 pounds, while that of Pennsylvania was given out by the manager at 1G5 pounds. Tha latter estimate look! small as tho Now Englandors show less avoirdupois in appearanco than their opponents. IIull, who was not expected to play for Wesleyau on account of disabilities, appeared on tho field, and the team was materially strengthened by his presence, as he is an admirable full back. Pennsylvania put forward her strongast eleven. Especially noteworthy was the procurement of Walter Camp, tho well known authority and writer on foot ball, as referee, and Duncan Edwards, of the Orescent team, as umpire.

Both are intimately acquainted with the game, and any attempts at Bluggins or other unscientific play will be promptly checked. Tho disposition on tho part of thoteamB is to abido by the league rules and to furnish the spectators witli a good exhibition of the autumn sport. The weather was perfect and there was no high wind to disturb the course of the ball, Tho grounds were In good condition, thero boing an entiro abaeuco of mud or any other disagreeable elements. Before the game Captain Slayback, of the Wes leyans, expressed very little hope of winning the Ho seemed to foci that tho Pennsylvania men were tho heavier and by sheer force could break through hi8 lino.

Th Ball Fired From Koberts' Pistel Tfet Tet FooHd Hsspifal Anlhoritios Say That the Caie is Yerj Critioal The Prisoners Still Haid. William Roberts, the young saloonkeeper who shot Mrs. Nettie Oliver, wife of Harry P. Oliver, in the hallway of hor home, 89 Havemeyer street, noar Hope, at 6 :50 yesterday morning, was again in Juitioe Goetting's court to day with his threo associates John J. O'Brien, Honry Babbington and Frank Mace, the latter being oharged with being aocessories before the act.

1 he John J. O'Brien association was largely represented among ths gathering in court. The four accusod aro members of the organization of whioh Harry Oliver is president. It now appears that Oliver's father's namo is Allabach, but ho never assumed it and called himsolf and wrote his name Oliver, and so gave it, as well as that of his wife, to tho police and a reporter. It so appears in the Brooklyn directory.

He does not seem to blame the aocused for their pait in the shooting, which he holds was unintentional. Mrs. Oliver passed last night in St. Catharine's hospital in a critical condition and under tbe influence of opiates. Sovoral offorts were made to trace the bullet to its resting plaoe without success and she is very muoh weakened br the probing.

Tho Eagle's statement yesterday that chances in the afternoon were against her recovery is true to day to a creator extent. While tho physicians in attendance would not state iu a public way that she was past recovery, yet to Boveral p.irtios, including her hUBband, they held out scarcely any hope. Coroner Lindsay was notified and ho called at tho institution in tho forenoon and took the woman's ante mortem statement, which is substantially the same as contained in her interview with an Eaole reporter aftor the shooting. She told how she had boen at a ball in New York with her husband and saw the four accused men there. Wheu she had beeu in her honso nearly an hour the men called, rang the door bell violently and Doundod on tha door.

VV'hon Bhe opened the door and told Roberts and O'Brion to go away, as her husband was asleep, and they had rofused, she slammed tho door in their faces and was going upstairs when the shot was flred, and the bullet entered her right side below the sixth rib. The four accused mou looked dejected to day even though unrrounded by friends in the cor naors leading to the cells. Roberts, as stated yesterday, had confessoato Detectivo Corcoran to discharging the weapon in order to awaken Mr. Oliver and without any murderous intent. He was nervouB, bnt his companions wero in a more cheerful mood, as they wll knew that they would finally bo only held as witnesses.

Counselor John Roesch appoared for Roberts and Mace, but really represented tho four. Tho lawyer had oalleU in the morning at the hospital and Dr. Parriah stated that Mrs. Oliver's oondition was very critical. Counsel was prepared to ask that all be admitted to bail, but after consulting with the judge the prisonors wero sent back to jail, without application being mado for bail in open court, until next Saturday.

Within a year it dropped to 0 and went into tho hands of a roooivor.

Eloven stocks have now advanced over ten points within a week, aad, therefore, the boar traders aro confident of a reaction.

Tho kiduapping years ago of Charlie Ross, the son of Christian K. Ross, of Gormantown, has again been brought to public attention by the publinatiou in New York, this morning, of a story iu whioh it is made to appear that tho long lost boy has probably been fouud at last. What has become of Charlio Ross remains as much a mystery as ever.

It is truo that tho police have been following up a clow, but from present appear auces it promises to be no more fruitful than many others which havo beeu Investigated in past years. When Chief Inspector Byrnes arrived at police hoadquartnrs, in New York, this morning, he found a number of reporters waiting to find out what he knew relative to the probable olearing up of the Philadelphia mystery. Tho inspeotor hadn't yet read tho newspapers and he was greatly astonished when told that Charlio Rosa had probably beon found, as stated in the report. Ho refused to say anything until he had read tho report When he had finished it was apparent that he waB greatly disturbed. he would neither deny nor affirm the story.

Finally he admitted that ho did know something about tha matter. Tho premature publication of the facts which ho had under investigation aroused his wrath and angor. Ho gave free vent to his opinion of the man who had evidently supplied tho information for publication and imparted to outsiders secrets which belonged to the detective ofBoe. Tho inspector denounced the person who gave tho information for tho purpoBe, he Btated, of advertising himself. Mr.

Byrnes finally said that three months ago his attention was called to a story which had been told by certain persons relative to the finding of Charlie Ross. The representation mado was that a young man supposed to bo tho long loat kidnapped boy was living uptown in New York. Although many such storieB have been told and followed to the end without result, tho inspector decided to find out what there was in this new one. He says men came i him and told him Charlie Rosb was living in Harlem aa Charles McChristy. One of these men belonged to tho police department of New York.

He (the Inspector) put nearly all his force of deteetives on tho oase, but everybody who said he knew about the case was auspiciously mysterious about it. Torty eieht hours after the man who said he kne'iv all about it had seen the Inspector that mysterious individual advertises himself by having his story published. "In twelve hours more," added Inspector Byrnes, "we would havo known whother that man was telling the truth." The inspector, when asked whether or not it was true that Detective Sergeant Tom Adams, of his command, had gone to Boston to see the young man supposed to be Charlie Ross, and who is in prison there charged with grand larceny, at first would neither deny nor affirm the story. He finally admitted, however, that Adams was at Boston and that his visit there was to establish, If possible, the identity of the young man supposed to be the long tot Charlie Ross. He said that he didn't oxpeot to have any result of Adam's work for three or four days.

The inspector said he had never seen the milkman McChriBty with whom it is said tho supposed Charlio Rosb lived in Harlem. said the inspoctor, "I do no be lieve that the young man who Is at present in prison in Boston is the long loat Charlie Ross. However, I oannot say anything positively uutU I hear from Adams." The suspiciously mysterious man referred to by Mr. Byrnes is C. AT Orant, Police Commissioner MoClavo's secretary.

Byrnes talked as if he was prepared to make life a burden for Mr. Grant. The latter arrived at police headquarters at about ll A.M. He had very little to say. He told the reporter he had already said too muoh.

He believos Charles MoChristy is Charlie Boss. Charlie Ross was stolen from nearly in front of his home, in Gormantown, about seven miles from Philadelphia, July 1, 1874. On December 14, 1874, two men known as Mosher and Douglas were caught in a burglary at tho house of Judge Van Brunt, in Bay Bidge. A brother of the judge and his son Albert killed the burglars, Mosher instantly. Douglas lived a short while, and said Mosher and he had abducted Charlie Ross.

Mrs. MoChristy, as whose son the supposed Charlie Ross has been living in Harlem and by whose name ho is known, denioB that tho youth is any but her son. Sho is said to be a sister of Bill Westervelt, who was onoe spotted as one of Mother's aofomplloos in tho abduction. MRS. LEFEVRE'S STORY.

VufortHDate Bevultof a Marriage at SI. niarbsi Rectory Officer Dunn has been on the lookout for Odil lon Lofevre, a young Frenoh Canadian, a member of the Thirty seoond regiment, for the past flvo months, with a warrant in whioh Lefevre is charged with abandoning his wife, Catharine, in April last. The accused, howovor, in the mean time had been giving Brooklyn a wido berth till yesterday afternoon, when Dunn having heard that he had just oome from Newark, N. and was at work in Paul's file factory, on Heap street, went to the plaoe, found him and arrested him. This morning when he waB arraigned before Justice Goetting he pleaded not guilty and said "This woman's peoplo got me drunk one night and I did not know that I was married till I awoke next morning." Mrs.

Lefevre. a rather prepossessing young woman, indignantly denied the statement of her husband and Baid "On tho afternoon of April 10 we went to the pastoral reBidenoe attaohed to St. Mark's Episcopal ohuroh on South Fourth street, and as Dr. Haskins was absent the marriage was solemnized by another clergyman who happened to be at the house, the witnesses being complainant's mother and a Miss Parsons, a relative of Dr. Sho exhibited here her marriage oertifloate, signed by the clergyman Rev.

Sylvester Clark, rector emeritus of Trinity church, Bridgeport. 'T was living at the time with my parents, at 00 Hope street," abo added. "Thoy livo now in Mas peth. A week later my husband said: 'My trunks are over at 350 Twenty fifth street, New York, and I owe $8.50 on Then I went to my father and cot $10 and went with him to the placo, but when we got there he took tho $10 from me and went upstaivs. After I had waited for him about two hours he camo down with bloodshot eyes, and when I asked him what was the matter he said that his landlady, Mrs.

Lizzie Aarons, had been scolding him because ho had got marrieel That day he left me, saying he was drunk when we got married." The justice adjourned the caso until Monday and committed the aocused, telling him that meantime he must find bail. THE PROSPECT GUN OLUB. Doinps by a Celebrated Ilody of flroolt lyn Sportsmen. The rrosneot gun club, which includes in its membership somo of tho rarest sportsmen and best fellows in Brooklyn, held its annual meeting last evening at the club rooms, corner of Bedford avouue and Halsey street. The following officers ensuing year wero elected: President, C.

T. Dotter; vice president, M. F. MoDermott; aecretary, John Leo; treasurer, John J. Moras.

The club owns forty or fiftyacres of land on the meadows opposite Freeport, L. and near Jones' inlet, and thero is located its commodious, comfortabla'and convenient quarters. In the immediate neighborhood some of tbe best shooting and fishing within fifty milos of New York are to be had in season and the boys know how to thoroughly enjoy themselves.

They are a most hospitable company and they do not hesitate to invito thoir friends down there to enjoy the sport with them. Measures were taken last night for the purchase of a steam launch for tho uso of tho club. HOHELBSS ONES FEASTED. Many Xhankajrivina: Dinners Supplied by the Children' Aid Society. Noarly four hundred robust littlo appetites were thoroughly satisfied between 12 and 1 o'clock to day by the Children's aidsooiety at the homes, 01 Poplar and 130 Tan Bruut Btreot, and groat mountains of turkey and chioken, mashed potatoes and turnips, celery, cranberry sauce and pies, were swept away by the waifs who in tho homos find a refuge.

But few lOBBons were learned in any of the olasses during the morning, for tho appetizing odors from the kitohens wore too muoh for the little ones and one enterprising and impatient youngster was caught turning the clock an hour fast. At the Poplar street home Miss MoGratb and Miss Kershaw had to keep their hundred and odd charges singing to keep them quiet, for singing in this case was qulotness, and at the Van Brunt street home it required all the efforts of Miss M. H. Robinson, Mrs. Newell, Miss Cruikshauk, Miss Fanning and Mies M.

E. Spenoo to keep anything like order among the 250 children in their care. To night, at 7 o'olook, the nowsboys will bo feasted at the Poplar street homo and many of them will be Thanksgiving repeaters to morrow at the newsboys feeds in New York, for the Brooklyn boys never got left.

Advices from St. Petersburg state that the czar has ordered an investigation of tho stories re gjvrdiujr the kamerati, or apartments where men and women are temporarily imprisoned at Tomsk, Siboria, It in said tliat the condition of affairs in tlia kameraB is horrible: tht tho women prisoners, many of them of roKpectable training, aro at tbe mercy of the guards, and alno of any other prisoners who bribe tho guards for admission to the female kamorts. Tho press is Baid to havo prompted tho investigation. A dispatch from Suakim says that tho deserters of Senoussi are marching asuinst the uiahdi with a large aud well armed Torco and that the malidi, owing to numerous desertions and is in no condition to meet the enemy. In Khartoum and vicinity all the food has beeu seized for the support of the mahdi's followors and tho inhabitants are perishing by hundreds.

An Arab living iu Khartoum is 8id to have killed one of Mb Blaves, the family being without food, and lived, with his household, for several on tho ro maina. There is abundant food in Suakim, but none of it is permitted to pass into the interior, it being tho purpose of the British to rednce tho enemy as much as possible by starvation. It is learned from Rome that the pope has not yet recoguizo.l the Brazilian republic, but has under consideration the propositions regarding church and stato put forward by tho Brazilian government. These propositions provide for the gradual separation of chnrch and state, the state to pay salaries to tho clergy for a timo and ultimately their relations to be on the same basis as in the United 8tatea of America. Official organs in St.

Petersburg and Moscow already express apprehension of tho possible de igns of Germany on the independence of Hol land, and ono liussian newspaper quotes tho remark, onco ascribed to Bismarck, that tho Nether laud ports were natural outlets of tho commerce of Germany. Resistance on the part of the other great powers to any movement against Holland's autonomy is predicted. The result of tho Italian election has caused deop disappointment in the Vatican, and all bnt the strongest clericals now regard the restoration of tho temporal power as hopeless. Tho authori ties havo givon strict orders for tho suppression of any papal or irrodentitist demonstrations. St.

Tho Tory morning papers aro jubilant over tho dilemma in which tho Irish party iB placed by Mr. GladBtoue's throwing over of llr. Parnell. They publish column after column of comment upon the situation, which they declare will certainly involve a hopeless rupture of the liboral and nationalist allianoe. Many liberals are beginning to suspoct that tho true iuwarduoss ot the stubborn attitude that may be maintained by tho Parnellites is that thoy desire to delay tho advent of home rule for a selfish purpose.

It is hinted that their salarios are more of an object to them than tho speedy success of the oanse which they profess to have at heart. This boing ths oase, it is charged, thoy played upon Mr. Parnell's very natural dislike of "retreating under fire and induced him to rota in the leadership, knowing that such action would Indefinitely prolong tho parliamentary struggle. The Irish societies of Liverpool and tho North of England have held moetings at whioh tho Parnellite problem was discussed, but the results have been indecisive, opinion being about evenly divided as to whether Mr. Parnell should bo advisod to retire or not.

The Chronicle officially states this morning that the government does not meditate a dissolution of parliament. Slavin, the pugilist, begins suit for libel to day againBt one of the Sunday papers whioh contained a statement reflecting upon hia oonduct In the recent fight with Joo MoAullft'o. Mr. Parnell last night declined to convene a meeting of the members of tho Irish party for to day. This action was taken notwithstanding the fact that tho request to call a meeting bore the signature of 88 members, or 18 more than tho rules of the party require.

This morning several Parnellite members of the house of commons loudly complained that, whon they voted to re olect Mr. Parnell to the chairmanship of the Irish parliamentary party, they were uninformod of all the faots bearing on the situation. In explaining to a friend his reasons for not attending the funeral of the lato Lady Rosebery, at Willisden, Middlesex, yesterday, Mr. Gladstone remarked that many an old man takes his death through attending a funeral.
