CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-THE business world
was again startled this afternoon by the
failure OF the great iron house of j. N.
Ayers Sons, whose Office is in the Portland
block this city. The head of the firm
could not be seen, but the failure was ad-
mitted by the clerks in the Office and by
the Union National bank, where the &C
counts were kept. A general estimate of
the liabilities places them at
$2,O0O,0OO, which makes the failure
the heaviest this city has witnessed since
the bank panic in 1877. Owing to the
lateness of the hour, few facts could be OBJ
tanned beyond this. The failure was IN
expected. The fra had been rated high
until lately. The assets are said to be
S1.5OO,OOO.

SULLIVAN AND MITCHELL.
The Latter the FavOrite in TO-NIght's
Boxing Contest,

New YORK, May 13.-Considerable COM
ment was caused in sporting circles in this
city yesterday by despatch received from
Boston to the effect that John L. Sullivan,
the noted pugilist, had sprained his right
shoulder on Wednesday last while throwing
a ball. The report seems to have no foun-
dation, as Mr.. James Wakeley, Sullivan's
hacker, says lie was never in better condi-
tiou. Sullivan has been in training at Salem,
Mass, for his coming contest with Mitchell,
the English boxer, which is arranged to take
place at Madison Square Garden to morrow
evening. Mitchell was the favorite among
many well-informed members of the sport
ing fraternity, and a considerable sum of
money was staked on him at odds OF 500 to
$50 In some quarters it is said that the
rumur in reference to Sullivan's injury was
started so that in case he should come out
second-best with Mitchell his friends will
have something to fall back on for an ex-
cuse.
Mitchell arrived from Saratoga yesterday
afternoon in company with his trainer and
agent, Billy Madden. He strips at $50
pounds, and appeared a fine specimen of
athletic manhood. He was full of vim and
spirit, ard while indulging in no boastful
language, said he was ready to meet Sulli-
van. When told that Il was reported that
the Boston pugilist had sprained his arm he
laughed heartily, and after a thoughtful
pause he said he hoped the news was not
correct. Many sporting men met the Eng
lishman at the 0eDOt

cutters be placed across eleventh street
at Pine street extended, so as to form q

cutters at Pine street, near Eleventh.
Council then proceeded on Eleventh
street above Pine, and viewed the old curl
| complained of, and on motion it was ordered

wider curb for distance of half squar
| from Pine street, to conform with the latel
set curb above.

League and Association COntssts-LOoaI
Notes.

READINe, May 12.-The grounds of the
Active club are the poorest In the League,
American Association or Inter State Associa
tiOL. A club that can beat the Active on
their own ground must be a good one.
Fifteen hundred people witnessed the game
this afternoon between the QuIckstep and
Active clubs. The Wilmington boys were
In excellent trim and spirit having rested
since Wednesday, the rain having prevented
them from playing at Newark and Potts
will In the interval. The Actives too had
recovered from the effect of their crushing
defeat at the hands of the Harrisburg
yesterday and Manager Field was well salts,
fed with their conditions before they stepped
In the diamond. During the day bets were
freely made in favor of the Actives, but as
the only friends the Wilmington boys had
in the city were a trio of poverty stricken re-
porters, there were few takers.
Game was called promptly at is O'Clock,
and the Actives having lost the toss were
sent to the bat. Deasley, the first striker
sent bounding ball to Dorr and retired at
first. Moore was the next striker. He had
one strike and six balls, when
Dorr walked to CAPTAIN Barber
at second base and without saying a word
fell in fit on the turf. A physician was
called and In a few minutes the sick man
was restored to consciousness Shortly
after he was driven to his room at the Key
stone House where he continued to i'm
prove. Play was then renewed with Pyle in
the hole. Moore took first on clean hit
to centre and reached second on passed
ball He went to third on Wild pitch.
Lynch was given his base on balls. larkins
went out on fly to Bresnahau on which
Moore scored. Lynch scored on Hoover's
rattling three bases. Boyle reached first on
Barber's error and Hoover scored. Lands
closed the inning by hitting to Barber and
was retired at first.
For the Quickstep, Albert led off with a
hit to short and was thrown out at first.
Smiley was retired in the same way. Bres
naham closed the inning with fly to Lynch.
The game was hotly contested and when
the Quicksteps went to the bat for
their last inning the score was tied.
Albert hit to Wylie and was thrown out
at first Smiley followed with a safe hit to
left. Bresnaham hit to Deasley, who threw
Smiley out at second. Moore made wild
throw to first and Bresnaham went to third.
Snyder brought him in with safe ait to
left and won the game. The score In detail
is as follows:

Beautiful Piece of Work.

One of the most artistic pieces of work
ever designed or executed in marble, in this
city, is now on exhibition at the Wilmington
Marble and Granite Works, Tenth and Tat
nall streets, where it was completed a few
days ago. The tomb was made for parties
in this city and is what is known as rock
ing cradle tomb. The total height of the
work is about nine feet, and surmounted by
a statue three feet high carved in italian
marble, representing innocence. The figure
is elegantly proportioned, the drapery about
the figure being as natural as 1t
is possible to make it of stone. The
figure rests upon base fashioned to initiate
rock and beautifully carved with fern
leaves distributed around the rock in a
most natural manner. The foot piece OF
gothic posts and cross piece cut out Of one
solid piece of rock is beautifully lettered in
a rustic design. The side pieces are also of
an original pattern to correspond with the
whole affair which certainly reflects with
credit upon the designer and executor. The
whole tomb was as heretofore stated carved
by workmen at this establishment, and tC
say that the figure of the little girl standing
by rustic cross, is perfect, is using only
justihable language. The tomb will bt
placed in position in the Wilmington ant
| Brandywine Cemetery next week.

Nevada, was on his voyage to Delaware

after making fast to the body, headed for

ceeded with Undertaken Palmer and took
the remains to the morgue. The body was
very much decomposed and looked as If it
had been eaten some by fishes. The
drowned man was of medium stature,
stoutly built and dressed in black pants and
vest and small figured calico shirt. There is
no doubt that it is the body of the mate
who was Knocked overheard by Henry Fer
rington, from the ship Adam NJ. Simpson,
in consequence of some misunderstanding
between them. On his arm were the ini-
tials "T. F." A pocket-knife and foot
rule were in his pockets. Coroner Smith
sent telegram to the United States District
Attorney at Philadelphia, but received no
answer. The iniLials ct. F." correspond
with the name of the drowned mate
"Thomas Fisher"
A jury was empanneled by the Coroner
yesterday, at 8 O'Clock, but it Immediately
adjourned until 7.30 this evening, so that
witnesses from Philadelphia might be
gotten to identify the body. The
Coroner receiy yed no word from the United
States District Attorney, of philadelphia, ,who
he had telegraphed to so. To avoid further
trouble, as the Coroner left this morning fol
that city, for the purpose of summoning the
witnesses.
