DIR. ATWELL'S NEMESIS.
All Hoboken Puzzled by His Entaug1e-
ment-Sympathy for His Wife.

All Hoboken Puzzled by His Entang1e-
ment-sympathy for His Wife.
The scandal in which young DR.. Atwell
has been involved by his strange matri-
monial entanglement is still the sole topic
of conversation in Hoboken. Few ply
sicians had brighter prospects than he,
and his income was $4,000 year. His
patients were Of the wealthy class aud he
was considered one of the most skilful
and rising young physicians In the
county.
AS light is thrown upon the case per-
sons are wondering what prompted the
doctor in the affair. The general impress
sion is that the Doctor is either an utter
fool or there is something which has not
yet been made public.
Whatever the feeling may be towards
DR.. Atwell, there is everywhere heard
kind words of sympathy for his young
wife. Before she married the doctor Belle
Middleton was one of the prettiest and fas-
cinating girls In Hoboken. When she
was only ID years old DIR. Atwell paid
her marked attention, and at the age of
fifteen her father. S. S. Middleton, the
wealthy grocer, consented to a marriage.
The extreme youth OF Miss Middleton at
that time was commented on. The couple
have one child, a girl

REPUBLICAN, GLOOM.
''Sim'' Smith Sulks in His Tent-Wretch-
ed Fizzle in Orient Hail.

''Sim' Smith Sulks in His Tent-Wretch-
ed Fizzle in Orient Hall.
Simeon Smith, the acknowled hustler
of the Republican party, is taking no part
in the present campaign. He has re-
marked that it is beyond his conception
why Wanser should have placed himself
in the hands of men who will cause his
political death. Mr.. Smith has reference
to Farrier, Blair, Seymour & Co. Several
attempts were made in the early part of
last week to get Mr. Smith into line, but
that gentleman informed the Farrier
workers that he was too much occupied
with his own business to do any election
eering. He said:-
Gentlemen, l am a Republican; and
/ will vote straight party ticket, but |
will be unable to do.any electioneering at
present"
This, from "Sim" Smith, meant disaster
to the worried Republicans, whose dis
comfiture has now assumed highly anus
ing dimensions. Mr.. Smiths refusal to
get out and hustle caused new scheme
to be tried on Saturday last. Farrier
men, with a goodly supply of cash, in
vaded the Abattoir, where about two
hundred of Mr.. Smiths constituents
work, and made good fellowsn of them
selves by circulating money quite freely.
The scheme was exploded late in the
pleasantly warm for the heefers who had
endeavored to undermine Mr.. Smith.
WILL VOTE DEMOCRATIC TICKETS.
The names of twenty-five young Re-
publicans who have pledged themselves
to support Paul Sury for Alderman and
the straight Democratic ticket, were
added to tue membership roll of the Paul
Sury Association yesterday.
A business meeting of The Association
was held in Masonic Hall in the after
noon. The membership roll has increased
to one hundred aud fifty. Arrangements
are to be made for several mass meetings
which will be held in the latter part Of
the week.
OH, WHAT A FIZZLEl
A mass meeting was held by the Re-

there to hear r. Farmer Wanser talk
about himself. The meeting was presided

THE PEOPLES Will.
Brown Place Made a Street
BY the Street and
Water Board.
BIG DAY FOR GREENVILLE
Pushing Woodlawn and Germania
Avenue Sewers-School
No. "a Accepted

Recognizing the evident wishes of the
citizens of Greenville the Board of Street
and Water Commissioners this morning,
by resolution, declared Brown place
public street.
The Street and Water Commissioners
have never been antagonistic to the
plan to make this a public street,
but they were at loss to understand just
why such action should be taken at this
time. The fact was clear, that in a few
years Brown place would become much
used thoroughfare, following the estab-
lishment of piers on the shore front, but
as matters stand at present it was looked
upon as being waste Of money to open
this strip of land as a street.
However, bowling to the wishes Of the
Greenvilleites, whose cause has been
championed by such gentlemen as
Reuben Simpson, Henry Lembeck and J.
J. Detwilier. Brown place was today de-
clared street.
Several Greenville citizens who were
present at the meeting thanked
the Commissioners for their action,
stating that in their opinions
Greenville property would be greatly en-
HANGED in value by the opening of Brown
place. At the present time the abut-
ments of the Lehigh Valley Railroad
Company are constructed on city prop
erty, leaving at one point an opening Of
but twenty feet and clearance way of
thirteen feet. Under the agreement made
between the company and the city these
abutments can be removed at any time.
Accordingly if the GreenviIle citizens de-
sire to have Brown place opened and
paved the, railroad company will be COM
PEELED to remove the abutments, which
would be classed as distractions to the
street.
The WOODLAWN SEWER.
Following upon this concession to the
wishes of the Greenville citizens another
improvement which has been asked for
was granted. The improvement referred
to is the construction of the big sewer
which is to drain the Woodlawn section
of the city. Estimates were
received for the work at the
last meeting of the Board. and this morn
ing the contract was awarded to the low
est bidder, Thomas Kelly. This improve
ment will cost about $4,000.
In addition to this the contract for the
construction of sewer in Germania ave-
nue. was awarded to H. HI. Holmes. This
work will cost about $50, 900, and will add
to the better drainage of Gree nville.
NEW STREETS.
The final assessment maps of North
street and Cambridge avenue were con-
tirmed and filed with the City Collector
for collection. Public School No. "a was
accepted as completed. and turned over
to the Board of Education. A requisi-
tion for flagstones for the improvement
of Hamilton and Van Worst Parks was
passed and A. Morris and Owen Lally
were appointed inspectors of the improve
ments of Ninth and Erie streets. respect

District Court room for a period of one

that 1t was the general opinion that he
had no ground for his action, he replied
energetically:

A Pittsburg Anarchist Charged with Com
plicity in the Shooting of Frick.
PITTsBURG. July 25.-Karl Knold, a
local anarchist, has been arrested in con-
nection with the attempted assassination
of H. c. Frick. Berkman, the would-be
murderer, stopped at Knold's residence
for eight days before the commission of
his crime. Knold admitted this to the
police and said he knew nothing of Berk-
man. The latter wrote him on his ar
rival at Pittsburg and told him Most
had given him his address and thereupon
gave him lodgings. Knold said he knew
nothing of Berkman's purpose. The po-
lice, however, doubt this and think now
the attempted assassination was an an
archistic conspiracy and Berkman was
the tool selected to carry out their pur-
pose. .--@.. .-..-...
The condition of Mr.. Frick continues
to improve: The doctors examined his
wounds during the evening and found
that no symptoms of blood poisoning
had developed. This is the extreme dam
ger. Mr.. Friek suffers considerable
pain, but still insists on conducting the
immense Carnegie business

PITTsBURa, July 25.-The police au-

an anarchistic plot that may be as great
in scope as that from which Spies and
his companions were hanged. They
have the names Of a number of persons
in New York, Long Branch, Hoboken
and other places whom they think were
implicated, and kilograms have been
sent to have them arrested. Until they
are in custody the names will not be
made public, as the police fear the pub
locations would defeat the ends of JUS
tice. Inspector McKelvy says they
might be able to show that Herr Most
was interested in the affair. A number

Many Protests Against the Brutal Punish

HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 2o.-An indi-
rect result of the shooting of MIR. Frick
gave Homestead its one exciting topic
during the day. It was the case of w.
L. Iams, the private of Company K,
Tenth regiment, who shouted "hurrah
for the man who did it," when told of
the act of Berkman, and as punishment
was strung up by his thumbs, had one
side Of his head and half his moustache
shaved, and was drummed out of camp.
In addition to this disgrace the sentence
carries with it dishonorable discharge
from the national guard and denial Of
the right to enlist in the federal army
and the rights of citizenship, The Iams
case threatens to become national
Homestead people talk of moth,
ing else Even the return of
Hugh O'Donnell after his release from
prison was subordinated by it. Letters
and kilograms denouncing it have been
received in Homestead, in Pittsburg and
by the governor of Pennsylvania. One
of the protests to Governor Pattison was
from The Washington correspondents
of Pennsylvania asking for the removal
of Colonel Streator, who ordered the
punishment of Iams.
Young Iams threatens to bring suit
against Colonel Streator and General
Snowden, but this is by no means the
most serious aspect of the case if reports
be true. 1t has caused much feeling in
the national guard, particularly among
the rank and file, and members of the
Tenth regiment are authority for the
statement that Company K, to which
Iams belonged, will have to be disband-
ed because it's members do not intend to
re-enlist after their present term Of en-
listment has expired.
