The Bunnen & Scranton Matter.

Ine Hunneu 6 scranton Matter.
 Another injunction has been brought against Prince & Whitely, the New York bankers and brokers. It is brought by Addison Smith, a retired business man, formerly president of New York bank. He had withdrawn his former injunction against Prince & Whitely in conjunction with others who did likewise. He is now dissatisfied with the arrangement made and demands to be allowed to redeem his stock which amount at the market price to about $45, ,000. His suit this time is brought as cooperative agent with Bun nell. & Scranton, with whom alone the New York firm had their dealings in the case MT. Smiths holding of stock that he sues to recover$is 500 shares. Mir. Nettleton of Bristol, Conn.,, who had 8 marginal holding of about $15,000 worth of stock, has also brought an injunction against Prince & Whitely to restrain them from selling the stock he bought on a margin from the late firm. Thus it is seen that the desire of the trustee to settlement of the estate, is blocked for the present at least.
 Prince & Whitely had already sold large part of the $95, ,000 worth of stocks held by them through Bunnen & Scran- ton. Lawson & Go. are out of it, having through an agreement entered into by them with the bank and the holders sold all the stocks-about $95, 900 worth-which stood to the account of Bunnell & Scranton when that firm went under
 Those who held stocks on a margin which have been sold out are in a quan- diary, not knowing what they will get out of the wreck, nor whether their marginal deposits will come in for share of the as- sets or not.

4. Horner Pitches Good Game,
 which With Heavy Batting by tho
 Home Team Defeats the A1banys-
 Umpire Battin Released-Notes.
 The ball tossers from. Hon. David B. Hills bailiwick arrived in this city yester- day and proceeded at once to the Howard avenue grounds determined to show the local team how.to play ball and at the same time take vengeance for the success sive defeats received by them at the hands of their Elm City brethren couple fof weeks ago. In this, however, they were disappointed, the home team winning by a score of 8 to 5.
 The day was decidedly cool, which fact together with an exceedingly cloudy sky, combined to keep down the attendance 50 that when the game commenced not more than 800 spectators were present.
 Homer was brought out of his some time retirement and put into the box Tor the home team, Wilson occupying the re- ceiving end of the battery. Horner's work was in the main excellent, using his strategic curves upon the visiting bats men with good effect, holding them down to seven singles, striking out four men and making two clean singles. Fricken occupied the box for the visitors but his delivery was ''too easy" and the local batsmen cracked out thirteen hits for Q total of nineteen bases, Wilson leading with single and home run to his credit. A special feature of the game was the decidedly clean and impartial unpiring of "Jack'ssGonnelly, who filled the trying pc sition yesterday afternoon to the complete satisfaction of both spectators and players: He is undoubtedly one of the most correct judges of play that ever stePped upon a ball field, as was evinced by his work in yesterdays game, and Is withal gentle man both on and off the field. The other specially interesting features of yesterdays game were the heavy batting of the home team and Cudworth's, Pettee's, Gerhardt's and Hanrahsn's fine fielding.
 The same clubs will play again to-day, when Clarkson and Decker will be in the points for the home team. The score tells the story of the game:

 Yesterday Selectman Le Grand Berins of Meriden came to this city to make inquiries of young lady of twenty-five or twenty six years of age who had been put off the train in that city the day before: She got on at Berlin, having no money, and said she had an aunt and other friends in New Haven, where she wished to go. The con- ductor put her off at Meriden, She acted strangely and is thought to be out of her mind. She was well dressed and had in her pockets several photographs, two of them being members of Sassacus, one of James Flynn, who is now in Wallingford, and the other of Michael Clark. It was for the purpose of finding some clue to her friends that the Meriden selectman came to this city. ..

THAT CIRCUS PARADE.

Action Of the Faculty With Regard
 to the Students = Dr. stalker Ser-
 mon to be Distributed-College Notes ]
 -Yale Law school.
 At the regular meeting of the Yale faculty held yesterday the sophomores were not summoned as expected. They will, however, probably be called before the next meeting and severely censured for their conduct in the matter. The report which appeared in the Morning News of Wednesday, that the students would be excluded from rooms on the campus next year, was quite unfounded, as the faculty had not taken any action on the matter. They will probably go no farther than g '1ecture " e
 Yesterdays New York Tribune had an editorial denouncing the action of the Yale faculty with regard to the. circus parade This is the first paper we have seen which field Republican thought the students should have been brought before the police court and fined just like ordinary mortals are who shatter the police. The Hartford Courant said: tiff the faculty can find some way to make each young gentleman do five minutes thinking just before the next circus comes along the case will be much better met than by swarms of police men and the rigor of the law"
 Dr. Stalker's sermon of some weeks ago in Battell chapel has been printed and will be distributed to the students by the kind ness of MT. Dwight L. Moody. Wednesdays Yale News contained an editorial protesting against the admission fee to the art school charged the students, on the grounds that all such buildings in the university, not to mention on the cam pus, should be free to the students and giving this as reason for the lack of in- terest in the school.

 MT. Sanford in Direct Charge. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Sir-Your interesting account of the new track contained remark which, no doubt inadvertently, did injustice to the engineer, MT. David c. Sanford. He has been and is now in direct charge of the work, while only assisted him on two or three occasions. My services were insig- ni6cant and were given to help out the association. As the Yale field was spoken of, it should be stated that MT. Sanford was engineer. As he was away most of the time on work of the shell fishery commission, the bulk of the work was done by me. Yours respectfully,

After Many Hours.


 The committee on streets held another of its midnight sessions last night and lis tened to some matters of an important nature. % The petition relating to the extension of Dewitt street to Lamberton, or return of assessments for same, was tabled.
 The petition for the layout of extension of Laurel street to James street met with the same fate.
 Leave was given to Caleb Mix to with draw his petition asking that the Derby railroad company be compelled to refrain from blocking up the Water street cross- ing. He alleged the company was using a triangular plot of ground that belonged to the city.
 The city engineer had looked up the rec ords and found the land was rightfully the property of the railroad, and hence the committee's action.
 They recommended concrete walk on the south side of Grafton street, between Atwater street and the east line of the premises known as S6 Grafton street.

 Buried Yesterday.
 The death of Francis Graham, only child of MT. and Mrs. E. H. Graham of Grown street, has deeply affected his many friends who sympathize with the parents in their sad bereavement. Little Frankie, although only nine years of age, by his bright and winsome ways had en- deared himself in the hearts of all his com pauions and friends. A constant sufferer for the past few months from heart disease and dropsy, not once did he murmur or lose his cheerfulness of temper. Realizing that his short life was drawing to close, he was ready for the summons. Endowed by nature with remarkable intelligence and an active mind, a bright future was predicted for him by his many friends, but wise providence had ruled otherwise.
 His many quaint theories and pertinent questions are indelibly stamped on the minds of those who gained his friendship.
 At the funeral yesterday afternoon Rev. B. s. Lines officiated and Rev. J. E. Brown, in a few well chosen words, gave consola- Hon to, the grief stricken parents and sor- rowing friends. The bearers were B. Barker,L L. Hayes,L L. Widman, T. ". Bohan.
 Pillows, harps with broken strings, baskets and wreaths of flowers in profusion were grouped around the casket. Our it- tie friend has his wish fulfilled, for he is laid away in 8 bed of flowers.
