A Colored Man, Overcharged by q Restau-
rant Keeper. Sues to Recover.
A hearing was had before Alderman
Cahill last night in case involving an
alleged Infringement of the fifteenth
amendment to the Constitution of the United
States The case was an action brought
fonte street, against Patrick Welsh, pro-
prietor of restaurant on Frankstown ave-
nue., to recover 81 80.
Buffers story is that last Friday he and
colored friend went into w elsh's restaurant
to get meal Welsh told them it would
cost them 81 each, though card on the
W all said s.Meals 25 cents" A dollar
meal was too "high" for them, and they
said they would take cup of coffee. That
would cost 80 cents each they were in
formed. They then started to 60 out, but
on the way saw cut watermelon. Above
it was card bearing the inscription:
"Watermelon, 10 cents q slice" They
each asked for slice, and were modestly
told the price would be 81 per slice. The
proverbial love of the dusky race for the
luscious fruit overtopped even the gilt
edged.price asked and two slices were pur-
chased. Butler paid the 50, and when the
melon had been eaten considered how he
could get his money back.
He consulted Attorney Holmes, also col-
Alderman Cahill to recover 81 80 over
charge. At the hearing last night Mr..
Welsh made no defense, and the Alderman
reserved his decision. He intimated, how
ever, that he would likely give Judgment
for the plaintiff in order to have the case
taken to court and secure decision on the
matter

CURIOSITY OF THE COUNTRY FOLK

ESPECIAL rELxokAN TO THE DISPATCH,
BuzzAKD's BAY, june 29.-Mr. Cleve-
land and Mrs. Cleveland received the citi-
zsns and shore residents of the Buzzard's 3
bay villages tonight. The guests were
largely country people from along the shore,
with sprinkling here and there Of Boston,
New York and Western summer sojourners
at neighboring resorts There were few
present of more than local Importance, and
1t was q simple affair soon over.
Mr.. Cleveland shook each guest by the
hand, and Mra Cleveland had pleasant
word for all and warm pressure of the
hand. Many of the country people made
themselves at home about the place, in
stead Of quietly departing after presenta-
tion. They ambled about the verandas,
peeked into windows to catch glimpse of
the furnishings, and some of the young
people went down on Mr.. Cleveland's boat
landing, helped themselves to his rowboat
and padded about to their hearts content.
Others ran pell-men over the neatly kept
lawns, investigated the stables and even
the chicken house, which is being remodeled
for an Office for Mr. Cleveland's private
secretary.
Mr. Cleveland was jovial and unusually
cordial to his Cape Cod neiehbors, who per-
sisted in obtaining something more than
mere nod and q hand-shake. from the Demo-
cratic nominee. G. 7. Chamberlaine intro
duced the visitors to Mr. and Mrs. Cleve-
land, and made a short speech of welcome
to Cape Cod to the distinguished couple.
Mr.. Cleveland responded as follows:
My friends, I hope you will credit me with
perfect sincerity when I say am glad to
sec you here, and when thank you for cali
ing upon me in such neighDorly way. 1
am one Of those who deem the respect Of my
fellow citizens, the trust OF my friends and
among the dearest thing OF life; and one who
believes that no honors can furnish personal
qualification except such as are based upon
these sentiments.
am thoroughly aware that many Of us
differ and are widely separated in political
thought and action. 1t may be that we would
not be SO widely apart If we understood
each other better. At any rate 1t derracts
nothing from our good citizenship, provided
our political ideas and beliefs are based
upon deliberate, conscientious and pa
triotic reflection. / am happy in the
belief that you suspect me no more than
do you of any desire to fnture the interests
Of the people and of the country. There
fore, while We may differ in polirics, we will
differ good-naturedly and still be good neigh
bors, attached and devoted to our homes
upon this pleasant shore and always con-
gratulating ourselves that we who enjoy the
cool breezes of Buzzard's Bay, are favored
above all others by a kind Providence.
After meeting the ex-President the visi-
tors passed out through the west door and
slowly dispersed through the grounds. For
an hour steady stream OF vehicles drove
up to the door, and when the reception was
over, at about 7:3o P. M, about 800 persons
had called.

STANLEY Is GUYED.

Gladstonian sympathissrs Break DIP .
Meeting Which He Addressed.
LONDON, June 29.-Henry M. Stanley,
who is to stand for one of the London con-
stituencies of the Liberal Unionist interest,
is encountering considerable hostility. To-
day the explorer, accompanied by his vile,
addressed a political meeting at Lambeth,
and he had quite lively experience. The
proceedings throughout were marked BY the
most uproarious conduct on the part Of
many present who were hostile to Mr.. STAN
ley, and who continually interrupted him
during the course Of his address with irrle-
evant remarks and irritating questions.
When the speaker denounced anarchy
and socialism as opposed to law, order and
morality, he was greeted with derisive yells
and loud cries Of, "How about King Cof-
fee?" "How many negroes did you kill?"
The disturbers then set up wild shouts for
Mr.. Gladstone, drowning MI. 6tsnley's
voice and interrupting him so that it was
with much difficulty he was able to proceed.
In spite of the efforts of those in charge,
the disorder continued to increase and the
meeting was at length terminated amid q
scene of the greatest confusion.

A SEA MYSTERY SOLVED.
The Taylor Rum Down BY the Ocean Race,
Trave, but the Crew Saved.

The Taylor Run Down BY the Ocean Racer
Trave, but the Crew Saved
LONDON, June 29.-The steamer Trave,
which left New York June q for
Southampton, has passed the Sicily Islands
She signals that she was slightly damaged
after leaving New York by collision with
vessel The Trave succeeded in saving
the captain and crew, who are on board the
Trave. The vessel which the Trave ran
down is supposed to be the Fred B. Taylor,
of Yarmouth, N. s., which was seen float
ing upside down in the ocean few days
ago, showing signs of having been nearly
cut In two by collision, and concerning
the fate of whose captain and crew great
anxiety Ras been felt
A dispatch from New York says: News
brought by sailing ship has encouraged
the friends and relatives of those on board
the ship Frederick B. Taylor to hope that
at least some of the crew have been saved
The Hippolyte Dumois, which has arrived
at Boston, sighted the forward half of 70
large ship with raft tied TO It. It is be-
lieved that this was part Of the Taylor,
and the fact that raft was tied to the
wreckage encourages the hope that at least
some Of the crew may have escaped tor
they evidently had time enough to make q
raft after the ship was struck.

cHoKED THE POLICEMAN,
Colored Officer Badly Used Up by Three
Street Car Conductors,

A Colored Officer Badly Used Up by Three
Street Car Conductors.
E j. Harris, colored police officer, was
choked and thrown of car on the Citizens
Traction line yesterday by the conductor Of
car No. 230 and the conductors of two other
cars. Harris bad been sent on an errand
from the Twelfth ward police station to
Magistrate McKehna's Office and was re-
turning to the station about o'clock on car
23a He was in uniform at the time an d
standing on the platform. The conductor
asked him for his fare and Har-
ris said the city police, when
in uniform were not required
to pay fare The conductor told him he
would put him off unless he paid, and Hsr-
ris paid
He was then told to 60 inside the car, but
as he had but short distance further to 90
he demurred. The conductor stopped the
car and threatened to put him of, and Har-
ris asked for the return of his fare and he
would get off. The conductor refused 1t.
but held his car until two others came M
behind him, when he called the conductors
and the three made 1t lively for the police
man. Chief Brown will inquire into the
matter to-day.
