Snoring Notes.

AID. GUMBERT will leave the city on Sunday
to Join the Boston Players team.
MANAGER HECKER expects almost all of
his players here tomorrow or Sunday.
SECRETARY SCANDRETT forwarded Jake
Beckley $50 on Monday. Jake needed it.
IT is still exceedingly difficult to find Presi-
dent Nimmick, of the local League club.
MANAGER HANLoN thinks that there Is
some big scheming going on among the League
magnates.
TOWNSEND. formerly catcher of the Phila-
delphla Athletics, has signed with the Balti-
mores.
THE final deposit in the Nikirk-Siebert FIVE
mile race is due at this office tomorrow even
ing at o'clock.
1T is rumored that ]. P. Andrews and S. s.
D. Thompson will shoot at Is live birds each to-
day for a big stake.
THE story of Pittsburg and Cleveland going
to consolidate is still going round, and Secre-
Iary Scandrett still denies it
ANOTHER rumor was current on the streets
last night to the effect that Burns had signed
with the local Players club. Manager Hanlon
knew nothing of it; so he said.
NEGOTIATIONS for a match between Jimmy
Carroll, of Brooklyn, and Reddy Gallagher, of
Cleveland, are being conducted by one of the
San Francisco clubs with good prospects that
the men will be brought together.

men in this case, as it is fight between seven
ministers ana DR.. Mansell. 1t appears to me
that the ministers were too cowaTdly to attack
him. and therefore reach through the laymen
who have no cause for bringing charges. Such
a case is unprecedented in the history of the
Methodist Church."
He admitted Mr.. Mansell had made mis-
statements through misunderstanding. and
therefore he did not lie. He said man would
base an assertion on shadow, if he believed
that shadow true, and yet not tell lie. The
meeting at the bookroom he regarded as an in
QUESTION. He said it was seven ministers fight
ing one man. He then described how each man
came in, and said: "Even DR. Smith left off the
arduous task of clipping editorials out of other
papers to fill up the columns of his own that he
might be present"
He declared the charge against Coursin was
true, and while he was giving his proof. Mr..
Cousin called to him to show up that letter
he had been blowing about" He then called
on the jury to acquit DR.. Mansel, and SAID as
the defendant was an eccentric man his
eccentricities must be taken into consideration.
At the close of DR.. Wheeler's remarks the
session was adjourned, and tomorrow morning
DR.. Wright will make his final plea for the
prosecution. and the trial will likely conclude
tomorrow evening.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH
NEW YORK, March 13.-The failure of
HARRISON & Loder, wholesale dealers in dry
goods at 379 Broadway. caused surprise in
the drygoods trade to-day. The members of
the firm, Edward HARRISON and Noah Loder,
made general assignment, without prefer
ence, to Frederick J. Lancaster. They
turned over everything to their creditors,
including the, residences of each of
the partners. Mr.. HARRISON lives at
Westfeld, N. j., and his homestead
which he has had for 80 years, and valued
at S25. 900, was conveyed TO the assignee.
Mr.. Loder's residence at 129 Pacific street,
which was also conveyed to the assignee, is
valued at s., 900. The firm did conserva-
tive business, claiming q capital OF $500, 900,
and always had the confidence and respect of
the trade. Their paper sold until recently
at a very low rate. The failure is ascrIbed
to bad collections, carrying over heavy
stock of wooden goods, inability to obtain
any more accommodations on account of
tight money and dull trade.
The store was closed to-day, only creditors
being admitted. Ex-Congressman John j.
Adams, the attorney for the firm, said that
the liabilities were about $3.50. 900. and the
normal assets more than S4OO, 900, Of which
about s125, 900 to $780, 900 is stock on hand
and the rest bills receivable. Besides the
above assets there was the private property
of the two partners. He thought the firm
would want an extension. Heavy creditors
had expressed their willingness to help the
firm. and all were friendly, because the
failure was an honest one, everything being
turned over to the creditors. From other
sources it was learned that the firm had
S6O, 900 single name paper out.

any ball men while away?"
"Yes. 1t is pretty hard to travel without
meeting ball men. You run across them on the
trains and almost anywhere you 60"

during your absence?'

"Yes we are still in. The condition of affairs

Have you seen the published rumor that the
Cleveland and Pittsburg teams may be con-
solidated, and Washington dropped?"
II have seen something to that effect in the
papers But there cannot be anything in it,
The League cannot afford to drop club in any
Brotherhood city. 1t would be virtually throw
ing up the sponge at the beginning of the
battle. If there had been any compromises to
be made with the Brotherhood the work would
have been begun by arranging dates that would
not conflict. There are but three cities that
the League can afford to drop. They are Wash
incton, Cleveland and Cincinnati, the cities
minus a Brotherhood team"
While Mr.. Brush refuses to state where he
has been. there are reasons to believe that he
has been consulting with the presidents of the
Washington and Cincinnati clubs upon the
eight-club circuit question. The ball fever is
terminating ranidly to-day under the influence
of a warm sun and the arrival of Captain Jack
Glasscock and other members of the Indian
apolIs club. Glasscock arrived to-day from
Cleveland. He is here to stay, and will devote
his time between now and the opening of the
season to getting the club in good playing con-
dition. He is highly pleased with the clubs

Mormon Missionaries swindie and Despoil
Their West Virginia Converts.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
RITCHIE c. H., w. VA, March 13.-The
Mormon missionaries who have been working
in this neghborhood for the past two years an
nounced about ten days ago that they had been
recalled to Salt Lake City to prepare a location
for the West Virginia converts. who were to be
given farms, stock, implements, etc., by the
church. that they might reside permanently
among the people whose religious cause they
had espoused. As means of testing the earn
estnesS of the converts, however, the church
had required of them one-tenth of all their
worldly possessions; in the way of tithes, and
this sum was to be paid over at once.
All the converts were poor people, although
in most cases possessing tracts of land of
greater or less extent. Those owning property
mortgaged it, money was borrowed, stock sold,
etc., and few days ago the elders left sud-
denly, taking with them considerable amount
of cash, .rung from the people of Calhoun,
and adjoining parts of Braxton, Clay and Roane
counties.
No one expects that the promises made will
be carried out, and believe that the people who
were gulled with their religion, were in addi-
tion swindled out of money and other valua-
bles which they can ill afford to lose.

GIVEN UP THE LAST HOPE.
Some of the Gripmen Now Gripping Clubs
Instead of Levers.


Instead of Levers.
President Evans, of the Central Trades
Council, called on Chief Brown, of the
Department of Public Safety, yesterday and
asked him if he had heard anything from
the Pittsburg Traction Company in regard
to settlement of the late strike. A num-
Der of the men are still out yet and an effort
is being made by the officials of D. A. 8 to
get them back again.
Mr. Brown stated that he had heard moth
ing from the officials of the company, and as
they had held meeting of the directors in
Philadelphia a few days ago, 1t was not
likely that they would do anything or even
grant the strikers committee an interview.
In regard to the matter Mr.. Evans said:
"The Executive Board OF D. A. No. will
meet tomorrow evening to take action on
the matter. There is no concealing the fact
that the meeting of the directors was trans
ferred from this city to Philadelphia in
order to get away from US. All we wanted
was chance to intercede for the men who
were discharged because they belonged to a
labor union. We will prosecute the boy
colt against the company with vigor. The
Penn avenue, Wylie avenue and Second
avenue lines all come into competition with
the company. and think we can prevail
upon the workingmen to patronize these
lines when it is convenient to do SO. As
soon as the Duquesne Company gets their
line in operation we will have a parallel
competitor. We will then show the Pitts
burg Company where they made a mistake
in refusing to allow a union man to work
for them. 1t is not Pittsburg Company by
any means. G. L. Magee, the Vice Presi-
dent of the company, was so disgusted with
the other officials that he resigned his posi-
tion."
About one-half of the strikers have found
employment elsewhere. 1t is said that five
of them are now on the police force and six
or seven are working on the Wylie avenue
line

President Smith Il ad Difficult Question to
Settle at Bowling Green.
President Smith. of the American Flint
Glass Workers Association, returned yes
terday from Bowling Green, O., where he
went to settle some trouble between the
workers at that place.
Several weeks ago, when the natural gas
unaccountably played out, a great many of
the men working in the flint house there,
thinking the shutdown would be permanent,
left the town. Within week or two the
company secured another supply of gas and
started their works. Some of the men re-
turned to the place, bnt in the meantime the
company, wanting other men, hired them to
fill the places Of those who had left the town.
The men who lett and returned claimed
the others had their jobs. They stated that
inasmuch as they had not taken out clear
ance cards, they were still employees of the
company. President Smith arranged the
matter satisfactorily to the men and the
company.

NOT MEANT FOR HIM,
A Juror Who Didn't Get Much Coveted
Gold Eagle.


Gold Eagle.
Notwithstanding all that has been said
and published regarding the jury system,
some queer citizens still occasionally get
their names on the list. Not long since a
lawyer, while coming down stairs in the
Court House, met his partner and handed
him some money. part of which was $40
gold piece. While making the transfer a
juror, with whom the lawyer was acquainted,
came up and reached out his hand to shake
hands. Ut should be stated that the lawyer
had d case expected to come up that after
noon.)
The juror saw the $40 gold piece, and
knowing look passed over his face and he
made spasmodic effort to get it without
attracting attention. When he discovered
that the money was not intended for him,
he sneaked out onto Grant street, and he
wears a subdued look whenever he meets the
LAWYER.
