a PROBABLY FATAL KICK.

An Interloper Thrashed-An Attempt Also
Made TO Kick, But the Kicker Misses His
Mark, and Falling, Breaks His Skull.
Monday night very Serious and probably
fatal accident happened at York's brewery in
the Sixth ward. It came about in this way:
At supper time, some of the employees heard
noise up stairs in the room occupied by
them, as if some one was moving stealthily.
Several of them rushed up,
and on making a search
found man concealed under one of the
beds. He was hauled out, and on him were
found several articles of clothing, etc., be-
longing to the occupants of the room. The
intruder was taken down stairs, and an adj
ninistration of the law, and the punishment
for his offence was taken in hand by the
crowd. They treated the man to sound
thrashing and told him to go.
10 accelerate his movements, one of the
yard men reached out to give the thief a
parting kick. He either miscalculated the
distance, or the man had obeyed orders to
go, for the kicker fell backwards, striking
MS head against the door
sill. He gave a groan, and was
picked up senseless, and on
examination it was found his skull had been
fractured. Yesterday morning he was con-
veyed to the city hospital, where he lies in g
very precario9S condition.

BANK CASHIER EEFAUTTs.
PROVIDENCE, Oct. Further examination in
the affairs of the Grocers' and Producers bank
indicates the defalcation of Cashier Calder
reaches $50 900, probably 100000. Fully half
OF the capital of the bank IA gone, but it Is
expected that a considerable amount can be re:
covered. The directors have requested Gov.
YanZandt to appoint a special commissioner
with view of winding up the institution.
Probably the depositors and other creditors are
secure, and the Stockholders will get something
ultimately. The cashier declares he took the
funds to accommodate his friends, or

promised to repay but did not

The general impression is that the cashier him

been going on two years or more; and the de-
tclency has been concealed from not a very
rigid scrutiny by an extensive system of Dor
rowing. Cashier Calder was arrested this morn

Independence Reflection Upon the United
States-Flattering Reception of Senior
Zamacona Creating Good Impression.
Cry OF MEXICO, Sept. 24-During the cele-
bration of Independence Day. Sept. 18th, in
the Teatro Nacional, at..which Minister Foster
was present, an orator made discourteous re-
marks about the United States, which were
applaGded by part of the audience. In conse-
quence of this incident sensational report
was circulated that Foster would demand his
passports. The report is preposterous. No inn
portance can be given to the occurrence. The
leading organs of public opinion condemn the
speech as foolish.
Senior Mata, secretary of foreign affairs, has
resigned on account of i'll health. 1t is be-
lieved Senior Zamacona will be his successor.
The reception Of Senior Zamacona in the
western cities of the United States, has made
most favorable impression, Mexican merchants
being enthusiastically in favor of entering into
close commercial relations with the United
States. The kind reception given to Senior
Zamacona has revived confidence everywhere.
The American residents of Mexico have con-
tributed upwards of $4,000 through their lega-
ton for yellow fever sufferers in the South.

MRS. sToDDARD's SENSATION.

New YORK, Oct. LIN the Vanderbilt viii
case to-day the so-called Mrs. Stoddard, who
gave the sensational testimony Friday last was
cross-examined. She refused to answer num-
Der of questions touching her character or rela-
tionship to men for whom she had kept house.
A woman stood up in court and the witness adj
mltted that the woman was Mrs. Stoddard the
wife of DIR. Stoddard. Before recess counsel
for W. ID. Vanderbilt asked the surrogate to
place the witness in the custody of an officer
during the recess to secure her presence. After
all the explanations she copld give were in,
counsel said he would ask the court to commit
the witness to await the action of the grand
jury on a charge of perjury
MIR. Lord said it was the most monstrous at
tempt to intimidate witness that he ever
heard OF. Judge Black dared the other side, if
they belIeved her perjured, to swear out an
affidavit and take out their warrant This
would place her in a position to strike back
and make them as responsible as they say she
is. Mr. Lord then said he would be responsible
for her appearance after recess, which was
satisfactory.
Witness in the course of her examination
testified she was married to DR.. Stoddard by a
magistrate at Kingston. At this time she was
not aware that the doctor had a wife living
The papers that would prove her marriage were
burned fifteen years ago. She went to the doc
TOYS house at his request and told Mrs. Stod-
dard she was widow. This was three years
after the marriage ceremony. The doctor gave
her a wedding ring.
