A BRILLIANT VICTORY.
PLUCkED FROM THE JAWS OF
DEFEAT.
READING ACT1VEs DEFEATED.
the Last Moment and Won "a Game by
Heavy smuggling in the Nick of Time.

During eight innings of the game at
Quickstep Park, yesterday, between the
home club and the Reading Actives, the
large audience present was disappointed and
almost disgusted at the poor showing
made by the local team. A score of II to 4
in favor OF the visitors was not encouraging,
and as there were no apparant prospects OF
any show for the Quicksteps about a
hundred people left the grounds before the
famous ninth inning opened
The home club went into the contest
shorn of much of their strength. McKenna
was prevented from catching by sore
finger, and Casey, despite severe
illness, persisted in playing behind the bat.
He was not in good condition, however, and
at the end of the fifth inning he retired in
favor of Cusick. Then Pyle who pitched
let himself out to his full strength, and the
Actives were able to add only two runs to
their score after that time.
The ninth inning changed the condition
of affairs materially. The Quicksteps came
to the bat, and by the most terrific slugging
ever seen In this city made seven runs
and tied the score. Hit after hit was
made in safe places, and the
runs came piling across the home plate in
the most lively manner, before the side was
finally put out. Then the Actives came to
the bat and by neat playing were retired
without run, after which the Quicksteps
took another fit of slugging and added the
winning run and two others to their score.
When the home club, by their streak of
heavy batting, tied the score, the enthusi-
asm of the audience was almost unbounded,
and when the winning run crossed the home
plate men almost went crazy with delight
Breshnaham, late of the Baltimore club,
played second base for the Quicksteps, and
came out without an error, besides leading
at the hat, being credited with three runs.
The full score is as follows:

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY.
Was Not a Delegate.

To THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE Will
you please correct statement in to-night's
GAZETTE to the effect that Robert Cotting-
ham was delegate to the Irish American
National Convention. AS delegate deny
that he was delegate to the said con-
yention; and also deny that there were any
powers delegated to him for the purpose OF
calling meeting. Mr.. Condor was Chair
man Of the Committee on Credentials, and
he did not give Mr.. Cottingham any ticket
to enter the convention; SO he came home.
Now, Mr. Editor, / would most respect
fully call the attention of the people OF Will
mington to this assumption on the part of
Mr. Cottingham. AS member of the Exc
cutiVe Committee for the State of Delaware,
and the only one in the State delegated with
power from that convention to call meet
ing, feel that it is my duty to allow no one
to steal anything from me without letting
them know of it. gave notice that meet
ing would be called as soon as practicable,
and ! now appeal to the friends of Ire
land that they do not enter into the new or
ganization in any other wsy except through
the platform adopted by the Philadelphia
convention, and that no faction and no mar
be placed above the cause, but let all be fol
notherland. JAMES A. BoURKE,

FACTS ABOUT THE PAY ROLL.
The Trouble ali Caused by the Obstinacy
of Chief Hawkins.

The awkward position that the patrolmen
are placed in with reference to their pay is
caused solely by the obstinancy and stupidity
of Chic: of Police Hawkins. In his
actions with regard to the pay roll he stands
alone. The facts are strictly as follows:
At the usual time for presenting monthly
bills to Council Sergeant Mcconnell made
out the pay roll for the police department,
according TO the old law, which he handed
to Clerk Fraim, who in turn submitted his
pay roll with that of the police, to City
Auditor Ball. That gentleman politely in
structed Clerk Fraim TO make his pay roll
conform with the provisions In the new
charter, stating that the changes In rates
dated from April 13.
Clerk Fraim saw his error and immedi-
ately rectified 1t and presented the payroll
in time for its passage at the next meeting,
April 20.
When the clerk handed the police pay roll
to Hawkins with instructions to make 1t
conform with the new law he appeared to
be totally ignorant of any law having been
passed, and refused to make out new bill,
stating that Thomas johnson, chairman of
the Police Committee, would see that 1t was
passed.
At the meeting April 20, Mr.. johnson re-
ported that there was a mistake in the police
bill and suggested that it be laid over for
one week. At the expiration OF the week,
nothing whatever was done by Hawkins to
rectify the matter, although Mr.. johnson,
Clerk Fraim, Auditor Ball and Solicitor
Turner, tried to explain to the best of their
ability just how the bill should be made,
but like school boy the Chief refused to
do anything with the bill, but went so far
as to suggest that the Auditor "should
pass this bill and when the next
month comes around you can add the extra
amount, off this month, to that BILL" This
suggestion was not adopted, and this is why
the patrolmen are kept out of their money,
purely through the stubbornness of th,
model chief, who forgets that the Auditors
office is a sworn one and he cannot pass a
bill that does not conform with the charter
without jeopardizing his bondsmen.
In the mean time the policemen are
thoroughly dissatisfied and give vent in well
chosen language to their feelings in the
matter, which could be settled in five
minutes If the model chief, who in the
matter is backed by Mayor Wales, would
condescend to make ouu a new pay roll with.
out waiting for a certified copy OF the bill,
as he says he is doing.

THE DUBLIN TRIALS.
HanIon Sentenced to Penal servitdde fer
LIfe-AnOt"er InforIner.


DUBLIN, May 4.-Lawrence Hdnlon, who
was placed on trial yesterday on the charge
of attempting to muI der Juror Dennis Field
was found guilt this morning and was
sentenced to penal servitude for HE. On
receiving his sentence be muttered: 81
won't be the last. God save Ireland from
such informers. FitZharris, who was in.
dicted yesterday as IN accessory to the MUIR
| der of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr.
Burke after the TACT, was arraigned in court
this morning and pleaded not guilty. The
man Hawkins, who was to have been ar
raigDed to-day with Kingston and others on
the charge of conspiracy to murder Poole,
has been discharged from custody.
Kingston, Healey and Gibney, who are
charged with conspiracy 10 murder Poole,
were arrigned In court again to-day for ex-
animation. An informer named Lamie
gave testimony concerning the existence of
vigilence murder circle to which the priso-
ners belonged. The prisoners we're remanded
for a week. George Smith, one of the men
In custody on a charge of being implicated
in the conspiracy to murder government
officials, has been discharged, he having
agreed to emigrate. 1t is confidently stated
here that Peter lyman is now in London and
is communicating with the police with a
view of turning informer.
THE ExTRADITIoN QUESTION.
The London LdW Journal, after discuss
ing the legal phases of the extradition ques-
tion, draws the conclusion that If the United
States holds that lyman, Walsh and Sheri-
danscannOt be eXtradited under the existing
treaty between Great Britain and the United
States and If those gentlemen do not volun-
tarily surrender themselves, they may, after
various formal writs of arrests have been
made out and returned without having been
satisfied, be adjudged outlaws and their
property may lie declared forfeited to the
Crown.
The Freeman's Journal says the dynamite
plot hatched in America was betrayed to the
British Consul at New York. The name of
every conspirator who came to England
and of the ship on which he sailed were
cabled to England directly after the yes
sci left New York. The police watched the
conspirators the moment they landed in
England. 1t says a member of the Govern
ing Council of the conspirators could alone
have given such information.
NOT ARRESTED YET.
New YORK, May t.-Patrtck j. Sheridan
and John Walsh, whom the Dublin grand
jury have indicted for murder, are still un-
molested. They were seen to-day in the
vicinity of their offices, and said that they
we're 'quietly and calmly" awaiting any
attempt to arrest them. "And," added
Mr.. Sheridan, 1--WE are ready to meet them
at the first step in that direction" They
declare that they will make no effort to
evade the officers and that they have no fear
of being apprehended.
DUBLIN, May A dispatch has been re-
ceived by Earl Spencer, Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland, announcing the arrest in New York
of Walsh aud Sheridan. 1t also gives full
account of the doings of lyman, VINO, it
says, is in America, and of the movements
of his family, and states where they will
meet him.

THE MIsER PRINTER.
He Leaves a Trunk Containing $40, 900
for Which There are no Claimants.


New YORK, May 4.-The trunk of the
miser printer, John Russell, who died on
Wednesday last at Bellevue Hospital, leav-
ing $40, 900 for which no claimants have ap-
peared, was found this morning by the
attaches of the Public Administrators office
in small room in lodging house at No.
249 William street. There is nothing in the
trunk which furnishes any clue to the place
Of residence of Russel's relatives.
The trunk is small one and
contains only a few paper clippings, an
old grammar, an arithmetic and two or
three books of poems. Rsusell left the Carl
ton House, in William street, on April 3,
and went to lodge at No. 26 Rose street,
having Patrick Riley as a roommate. Rus
sell fell very sick there and sought another
lodging. He took room at No. 249 Will
liam street, where he remained about a
week, when he went on Saturday of last
week to Bellevue Hospital. His remains
will lie at the rooms of Undertaken Coote,
at No. 443 First avenue. They will
probably be buried tomorrow morning,
after being photographed, at 10 O'Clock,
| in the Cemetery of the Evergreens. II was
said at the Public Administrators that it
is the policy of Mr.. Algernon s. Sullivan to
wait short time before making a search
for the heirs, relying meanwhile on the pub
| licity of the matter given by the press. If,
however, no heirs appear, Mr.. Sullivan will
put the case in the hands of agents in Eng
land who make it their business to search
for lost heirs. 1t is thought that news can
be gained from the office of the Typographi-
cal Union in Racquet Court, London. The
deceased came here about 1S4l.

IN COUNSEL AT DOVER.
The Peninsula Fruit EvapOrator Assoc

The Peninsula Fruit EvapOrator AssOcia-
ton in session Yesterday.
A special meeting of the Peninsula Fruit
Evaporator's Association was held in Dover
yesterday for the purpose of considering
the protection of the association against the
claim of the Alden Manufacturing Com
pany of New York for the royalty on the
Williams evaporators, manufactured by s..
E.& JIM Sprout and used by members of the
association. Among those present at the
meeting were j. Rosa and W. R. Philips,

A. j. nice stoted ALp,t tl.e Afuvn com pany
had entered suit against members of the
New York association for using evaporators
that were infrlngements on the patents
owned by that company and invited the
Peninsula Association to join the New York
Association in resisting the claims. A let
ter was read from s. E. g. j. NJ. Sprout,
stating that they had agreed to pay a
royalty Of 500 on every Williams machine
sold on the Peninsula, and that the Alden
Company would grant licenses to parties
conditions that they should not give
aid to other infringers of the Alden
| patent. The association Indignantly re-
fused to enter into this compact, and
before adjourning passed resolution unit
ing with the New York association in resist
ing the claims of the Alden Company, and
DR.. j. H. Smith, Caleb Boggs and Joshua
T. German were appointed as a committee
| to act in cooperation with the New York as
sociation to this end.
The members of the association claim that
the Williams Evaporator will not do as good
work as they were assured by s. E. & j. M
| Sprout. and that the manufacturers made
misrepresentation as to their rights tC
patents embodying the evaporators.

A Rare Otter.

Mr.. Albert Wagner of this city has in his
possession young otter only seven days
old, which he brought to this office yester-
day for exhibition to the reportorial staff of
the GAZETTE. 1t is about four inches in
length, of beautiful mouse
color, and resembles a very young
puppy except about the neck which is much
longer and the head which is considerably
smaller than those OF an infant canine. 1t
was bro, ght up from Milford, Del, several
days ago by Mr.. George Fehrenbach and
presented to Mr.. Wagner as a
rare curiosity, being the only very
young otter ever captured in the
State 1t was found in a stable OF
Mr. Grier at Milford by his hired man, and
as ditch runs bear by the theory is
that the dam took it there, out for
what purpose is not conjectured.
Mr.. Wagner is raising IL on the
bottle and hopes by careful nursing to bring
| it up useful and respectable otter; and as
he is an upright and moral man himself we
think he certainly otter succeed.
