An Eleventh ward>Episode.

John B. Rambo, who keeps little candy
store at The corner of Bird and Nancy
streets in the Eleventh ward, was the plain
tiff before they Mayor last evening, in the
charge of fdisorderly conduct and the use of
threatening language, preferred against
Patrick Cunningham and Thomas Kane,
two young fellows about 20 years of age.
Rambo's story, which proved that he was
undoubtedly the butt of all the boys In the
neighborhood, was to the effect that he had
had the store two weeks and the young men
were In the habit of congregating there in
the evenings. One night last week there
were as many as 25 in the room at
one time, although 1t only measures 16x12
feet. He did not want them all there, but
they wouldn't go out. He made arrange
ments with ~ of the gang to pay him 10
cents month for the privilege of loaiing In
the store, but having misunderstanding
annulled his agreement. On Sunday night
four boys, among whom were Kane and
Cunningham, kicked his front door and
threatened to tear the place out. No serious
damage was shown to have been done, but
his Honor fined each of them so cents and
costs for belonging to bad gang and hav-
ing tcountenances like plug uglies." Harry
Sharpley, ESQ.,, counsel for prisoners, in
formed the Mayor that the young men were
not to blame for their features as it was
Gods fault.

FINE WORKMANSHIP.
A Magnificent Set of Chilled Cast Iron
Rolls.

Rolls.
The Lobdell Car Wheel Company are to-
day boxing for shipment to Massachusetts a
set of nine chilled cast iron rolls, which for
beauty of workmanship and fine finish are
unequal. The rolls are to be used in the
manufacture OF paper and are what are
known as calendering rolls. They are
placed one above the other and fit SO closely
and accurately on the surfaces that not even
particle of light can be seen between
them. The work ior which they are de-
signed neeessitates the most careful calcu-
lations and only the most skilled workmen
are enabled to put ON the mirror-like sur
face and insure complete adjustment.
The rolls are each so inches in length,
while the diameters vary, the first being Is
inches, the next IL inches, the five below 10
inches each, the next 12 inches, and the
bottom one 18 inches. With the exception
of the bottom roll, which is made with a
slight crown on the surface, they are all
weight of the set is e4,500 pounds and the
value is several thousand dollars.
The rolls wers cast at the new south side
works OF the company, but finished at the
old establishment along the railroad at the
foot of Poplar street. Calendering rolls are
a special branch of work with the Lobdell
Company, who supply the Pusey & Jones
Company with the unfinished chilled cast
ings, the latter firm, who manufacture
paper-making machinery, doing the grind
ing and finishing.
The set of rolls spoken of here were fur
nished and placed in position without being
tested, but were found to be perfectly true
ready for use, The rolls are constructed to
be worked cold, paper manufacturers flnd-
ing that surfaces thus made are more dura-
BILE than when made with hot rolls. The
second roll from the bottom, however, of the
applied ii necessary or desired.

Ship Canal Survey.
1Smyrna Times.


United States Civil Engineers, NJ. 2.
Paret, William Houston and William L.
Dorsey, in an experimental survey In the
interest OF the proposed Maryland and Della
ware ship canal to determine the level of
the country above the tide water line,
reached this town on Saturday and registered
at the Smyrna House. They came over
from Baltimore on the 9th, commencing
their survey at Millington the next day,
the intervening time being occupied
on this line until Monday whenf
they reached Smyrna Landing, thk
head of tide water. The highest po.ls 6c
land between the two points Is just this side
OF Blackiston's Cross Roads about so feet
above tide water. In our town the highest
point is about so and the lowest 80 feet, the
average being about 40 feet. This is only
one of several surveys made across the
Peninsula, and determines nothing. This
route from the head waters of Chester river
to the head waters of Smyrna or Duck
Creek is one advocated by Captain Friel OF
the Eastern Shore with a great deal of rea-
son and force as being the best and cheap
est route that can be selected for the ship
canal. The surveyors are now running
back on the same line.

Beaten, Bound, Gagged and Left SWING
ing From the Rigging In q Storm.
Captain Robert Wiltbank of the brig
Daphne now lying here, with lumber for
the Harlan 81 Hollingsworth Co i, was ar
rested in Philadelphia yesterday and put
under bonds for hearing on Saturday
before United States Commissioner Bell on
the charge of atrocious cruelty to Frederick
Lealto, a colored seaman. The prosecutor
says he shipped as steward of the brig
Senorita, of which Wiltbank was captain
and his brother Bartholomew first mate, in
January last While on trip from Aspin-
wall to the island OF st. Andrews tho Wilt
banks took every opportunity of tormenting
Lealto. He was struck and knock down
and beaten by the captain and his brother
and pounded with belaying-pins several
times during the month of April.
One day he was put In irons, gagged with
a Delaying pin and bound SO that he could
not struggle, and was then left dangling In
the rigging during high sea. He prayed
for mercy, but was not released until the
storm abated. He was then covered with
blood from his wounds. His prosecutors
continued their abuse daily until st..
Andrews was reached, on May, 8, when he
was left ashore and the brigantine left.
He could get no redress through
the American Consul and had to
remain on the is1uI.d four months.
Lealto declares that during that time the
Senorita arrived, and he heard that Wilt
bank, having made money out of wreck,
had taken new vessel and appointed Bar
tholomew master of the spnorita. Lealto
went to Philadelphia in September, but not
finding Wiltbank sailed again for Cuba. On
his return he learned that the Daphne was
at Wilmington and swore out warrant for
.I,y 1zAS -

MRS. LABoUoHEREs DIvoR1
The True Story OF the Proceedings rs 4 i
From Richmond To-day = ForeA
News.

RICHMOND, VA, Dec. 21.-As some n4L
sence and gossip may be fabricated on p
strength of a suit entered In the Circit
Court of this city In behalf of Mrs. n
bouchere, who was formerly Mrs. Pigea,
1t may be worth while TO send you the exsn
truth.
Long before her arrival in this country 1
was arranged, In view of some questiots
affecting the property, that Mrs. Labouchae
should come to Richmond and institute
proceedings, looking to judicial sepafa-
tion in this country from MIR. Pigeon, from
whom she was separated In England more
than twelve years ago, as the proceedings
taken here would obviate the necessity OF
producing any foreign record.
To this end accordingly Mrs. Labouchere,
when she made up her mind to return to
England in December, came on to this city
with her legal adviser, Mr. Fowler of the
firm of Dunning, Edsall, Park 81 Fowler,
and in accordance with the laws of Virginia,
instituted proceedings, as being a married
woman, through ttnext friend" Mr.. j.
Darlington, now Mayor of Richmond, and
lawyer of high standing, for separation in
Virginia from Richard Pigeon, to whom she
was married July 2, 1854, In St. Georges
Church, Hanover Square, London. The
America, is that shortly after the
marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Pigeon
they came to the United States and
lived in various portions of this country
until more than II years ago when her hus-
band abandoned her and their child, son,
Mrs. Labouchere arrived In Richmond on
the night of December 4, accompanied by
her maid, by Mr.. Fowler of New York
and by young MIR. Dunning
son of Mr.. Fowler's partner. Sne remained
in the city till the 9th, when proceedings
having been perfected she left ior Washing
ton. The maiden name OF Mrs. Labouchere
was Miss Hodson. 1t will be seen that there
is nothing mysterious about the matter, ex-
cept In the imagination of the Quidnuncs,
and 1t has no more to do with Mrs. Langtry
on her tour in this country than with Cete.
wayo or Aribi Bey.
WHAT IS SAID IN NEW YORK.
New YORK, Dec. 21.-Members OF the
firm or Dunning, Edsall, Hart 81 Fowler
last night declined to throw any light upon
the report from Richmond. They were non
committal when asked whether they knew
of such an action, and added that If 1t had
been begun their firm was not interested
in 1t. One of them suggested that
the firm name might have been used in con
nection with the matter, because one of the
partners was acquainted with Mr..
Labouchere and the firm had transacted
some business for that gentleman. He also
suggested that, in his opinion, 1t would be
advisable to wait awhile for further develop.
ments before giving publicity to the report.
The mention of the name of the firm In con-
nection with the matter was deprecated

A BRILLIANT sCHEMH Z.
Tho Electric Light to be introduced Oh
Market Street This Evening.


For some time scheme has been on foot
to introduce the electric light on Market
street, this city, and from indications the
plan will be matured this evening, Private
parties first agitated the matter which fell
through and was revived by company of
capitalists who have pushed 1t forward.
Wires were erected few days ago and 1t
was expected the whole thing would have
been completed and in operation on Monday
evening last.
The following firms have arranged to use
the new light
J. P. Doughten q Co., three lamps; c. r.
Thomas 81 Co., two lampsi Granville
Werrell, one lamp; H. r. Watson, one
lamp; John Moore, ,one lamp; c. F. Rudolph,
two lamps; j. w. Diefendorf, four lamps,
and the Mutual Union Telegraph Company,
one light.
An Arnoux- -Hockhausen dynamo machine
has been placed in a building in the rear of
Remington 81 Co.'s establishment at Front
and Lombard streets, the power to run it
being 81 horsepower engine.
The subscribers to the new arrangement
are very solicitous that the lighting be ac-
complished as soon as possible, SO as to give
their holiday trade the benefit of the novelty.
All the materials and fixtures for the new
lamps have arrived and it is thought that
without fail Market street this evening will
present an attractive appearance.

A Satisfactory Result Reached by til
SMYRNA GantIemen,s Visit 70 BostOn.

Smyrna Gentlemen's Visit to Boston.
The Smyrna Times of to-day says: : The
Welt of Messrs. d. j.. and r. H. Cummins
to Boston, last week, was entirely satisfae-
tory. They previously had free talk with
John A. Wilson, General Freight Agent of
the Pennsylvania road and were well pre-
pared to present their claims conciscly. In
an interview with George II. Williams the
General Freight agent Of the New York and
New England road In connection with their
commission men, all that was asked was
readily conceded except one car. This car
because Of its disabled condition when re-
ceived from the Pennsylvania company was
not forwarded until repaired, causing delay
Tor which that company will have to stand
good. The contract was that the fruit should
be delivered In Boston between 2 and
a. m, but 1t did not get In market often
until late In the morning and sometimes
not until the afternoon, thus losing the
days market. Though the loss on these
late arrivals was stated by the commission
men to average 20 cents per basket, no
claim was made for pay except for those
that had to be held ovsr TIL next day. The
amount demanded was perhaps only about
one-third of the loss occ lsioned by the delay
OF the trains. The New England Company
claims that much of the delay was occa-
stoned by the Pennsylvania road delivering
the cars to them at Jersey City behind the
schedule time agreed upon. Both compa-
nies, 1t is expected, will liquidate the claims
this or the coming week. The amount
claimed by parties here will aggregate about
$1,000.
The New England company regard the
traffic as profitable to them and desire a con-
tinuance of 1t and feel assured they can do
the business entirely satisfactory another
season. They have been singularly uE-
fortunate the past season owing to increased
traffic and accidents which has caused them
to sustain heavy losses and their position is
such rather to elicit sympathy than censure.

Tearing up Decorations.

Yesterday morning a German entred a
little shop ON Fifth street above King and
priced some evergreen and Christmas deco
rations there offered for sale. The prices
did not suit him and he vented his disgust
by kicking over trees and tearing wreaths
apart. The owner of the goods, black
man, demonstrated and put the fellow. who
also was swearing considerably out of the
place. He returned three or four times and
repeated his annoyance. Finally he was
arrested and taken to the Hall. When ar
raigled last evening he denied all knowl-
edge of the disorderly conduct and was cut
short by the Mayor in the midst of lengthy
harangue in hall German. His case was
postponed at his own instance to secure wit
nesses, but was subsequently released on
the payment of fine, and this morning was
again noisily drunk on the streets.
