started to work yesterday morning on the
new watch. While switching at Sixth
street, the engine had occasion to back up
with box car in order to couple it with
other freight cars. In that particular place
large chunks of coal are piled up beside
the track and in such close proximity as to
barely permit car to pass. Webb was
hanging onto the ladder at the side of the
car, and had just given the engineer sig

The engineer stopped as quickly as pos

They found the unfortunate man sus-

wholly unconscious. Before it was posi-

away. He was taken to the Railroad Hos

to consciousness
Several of ribs were found to be crushed
in and his arm broken. He was also badly
injured internally, and the doctors say the
chances for recovery are against him.
Webb was a good workman and thor

25 years of age and unmarried, but is sup

INTRUSIVE OFFICERS.
They Put Stop to a Festive Fireman's
Time

They Put Stop to Festive Fireman's
Time"
A. Rutherford, locomotive fireman,
purchased large-sized Jag" last night,
but they didn't agree. and as result the
former got in Jail and is nursing an exag-
gerated head.
Police officers Gibson and Campbell
found the festive fireman on Second street
at about II o'clock, where he was endeav-
oring to kick in the door of house of ILL.,
repute. When the officers suggested that
it would be good idea for him to go
home he became indignant and essayed to
chastise the intruders upon his time"
He made dismal failure of this and was
dragged off to a dungeon cell for his
trouble. He fought the officers all the way
down to the Station-house however, and
all three looked pretty well used up when
they arrived there.
Rutherford will have chance to tell
Judge Buckley all about it to-day.

STORY OF A FIRE.

1t Gould Not be Proved that the Gas
Company Was to Blame.
The suit of Frank n. Tilden against the
Capital Gas Company for 81 ,030 damages
and costs was heard by Superior Judge Van
Fleet yesterday.
The plaintiff alleged that he is the owner
of the house No. 1706 h street, occupied
by G. II. Turner; that in July of last year
the gas meter got out OF order, and one OF
the company's employees, while making re-
pairs, allowed the escaping gas to ignite,
thereby setting the house a.fiIe and neces-
stating the calling out of the fire depart
ment.
The plaintiff was unable to prove con-
clusively, however, that the building took
fire in this manner, and judgment was rem
dered against him.

ATTEMPTS TO DECEIVE.
TNHE FOLLOWING Is A LETTER FROM THE
/ Mathushek Piano Manufacturing Company,
New Haven, Conn:

TIME FOLLOWING Is A LETTER FROM THE
i Mathushek Piano Manufacturing Company,
New Haven, Conn.
June %, 1890.
JOHN COOPER, EsQ-Dear Sir: Replying to
your letter of the 4th inst. will say we inclose
copy of report of the Mathushek g. Son Company,
also copy of the Musical Courier" containing
an article relating to these people The above
mentioned is all the information we have in
the matter 1t is very evident from the above
report that the cor Germ is not in shape financi-
ally to do very extensive business but. of
course, rival and INSCRIPTIONS dealers will
make all they can out of it, in the hope of
putting something else forward. 1t is only all
other of those desperate attempts to make CAPT
tai off from the name and reputation the Math-
ushek Piano has gained. As a matter of fact,
it is really gratifying to see how much tine
name is appreciated, and that it is considered
so valuable that previous failures don't seem
to dampen the ardor of the projectors. We are
confident in the belief however. from the f.
nancial standing of the new concern, that no
longer lease OF life will be accorded them than
was granted their predecessors. The Mathu-
shek Piano is pretty well installed, and we
hardly think the public will be beguiled into
buying piano made by Jacobs BROS. for
Mathushek. few may be influenced at first
but it will end like all the other attempts in
first-class advertisement. Yours very respect
fully, The MATHUSHEK
Piano Manufacturing Company.

Der at all, and the Department had great
