worshippers from the Elsey Memorial
Chapel on Fairview avenue.
Mr.. Baylis said that he had just returned

city had made upon him. He produced a

Within the last few days the Rev. Mr..
Baylis has been subjected to q series of
petty annoyances by the Elseys. In one

threatened with arrest for malicious mis-
chief if he tears the sign down again. He
is innocent, he says, of having torn down

The Rev Mr. Baylis has taken counsel

another man, demanding retraction. IL
it be refused, that minister is likely to

CAUGHT IN THE ROLLERS.

A Workman In the Sugar House Barely
Escapes Serious Injury.
A workman employed in Matthiessen
& Wiechers' Sugar Refining Company on
Washington and Essex streets, had mar
row escape from death this morning.
He was employed about one of the vast
sugar crushers when wrench, which he
was holding in his hand, dropped into the
machine. He made a hurried grab for the
wrench, but before he could draw back his
hand. the sleeve of his shirt was caught by
the teeth of the crusher and his arm was
slowly drawn down between the rollers.
Fortunately for him fellow workman
saw the accident and stopped the machin-
cry before the man was severely injured.
Dir. McGill was summoned and found
that although the arm was badly lacerated
no bones were broken. The man was q
Pole, and lived on Morris street with his
wife and children.
Hearing of the accident, / went to the
office of the sugar house and asked for
the mans name and the particulars of the
injury.
a man with the manner off a
Baron in embarrassed circumstances, as
sured me that no accident had taken place
there, and kindly suggested that might
CLEAN some information at the sugar
house on Hudson street.
/ thanked the Baron for his information
and as the accident did not occur on Hud-
son street attempted to learn the injured
mans name among the workmen in Mat
thiessen & Wiecher's buildings. AL
though they would admit that such an
accident had taken place there, they re-
fused to give any information on the sub
iect, intimating that it was all their posi-
tion is worth to talk of such matters with
outsiders
