THE CoRNELL'S BIG FIRE.
The Iron Works Loss Estimated at Full,
$4,000

The Iron Works Loss at Fully
$685. 600.
NEW YORK, June 2, 1s93.-The fire in
the iron works of j. B. and ]. N. Cornell
was gotten under control shortly before
two O'Clock this morning.
The main building Of the works. which
was 400 feet long and q block wide, was
almost entirely destroyed.
The principal loss will be from damage
to the machinery.of whichthere is q large
quantity of the latest and most improved
design, and the warping Of structural
iron. considerable quantity of which
Yves also burned and the loss there is
heavy..
Superintendent Reid said this morning
that the loss could not be estimated ac-
curately until the ruins cooled down
enough to permit a thorough examina-
tion. A moderate estimate of the loss Is
S2,50, 900. The firm carried ample insur-
ance. About 500 hands were at work in
the building at the present season, and
all will be thrown out of work for some
time.
Many of the firemen had narrow es-
capes from death. Four pipemen were
henlmed IN by the fire at one time. but
they escaped by drenching themselves
with water, and then rushing through a
wall of flame.
The firm had the contracts for the iron
work c5 numerous buildings now in
course of erection in this city. notably the
Conelius Vanderbilt mansion, Il the
constructed of these buildings will in
consequence be delayed.

The Legislative Differences Still On
s~ettIed-The Courts to Intervene.
NEWPORT. R. l., June 2, 1S93.-BoTh
Houses of the Legislature were in session
this morning. The Senate sent down to
the House their reasons for not meeting
them in Grand Committee, aud the
House returned them, refusing to receive
what they styled an insult. The
special committee from the House
TO which was referred the
concurrent resolution a~djourntng tho
Legislature until January reported back
another concurrent resolution which the
House at once passed. It asks the Gov
ernor to request the Supreme Court to
render a decision upon the question OF
the legality of the House as now consti-
tuted; also upon the legality OF the mo-
tion of the Senate IN not going into grand
committee.
It is doubtful il the Senate will act up
on the resolution, for each house is now
s~endeavoring not to recognize the other.
If the Senate recognizes tue House they
fear they may be forced into grand COM
House is not legally constituted must
be withdrawn. The House will not rec
ogniza the Senate. for II they do. the
Governor NAV then proregua the Legls-
lature. The democrats say that they will
not adjourn, bnt will await the decision
or the Court. II the Senate does not con-
cur with this mornings resolution, the
House will seek other means of securing
Il heating before the Court. Adjourn
ment was taken until this afternoon by
both Houses.

OYER THE OPERA HOUSE SALE

Michael Mullone's lease of the New
Opera House was to be sold at Wolbert's
real estate Office by the Sheriff, yesterday
afternoon, to satisfy a claim of Contrac-
tor Hilipot. The 5lease is a negotiable
Investment. Lawyer John DENIM, rep.
~resenting Henry Denton. who has a

objected because of the fact that the af-
fairs of the Opera House were taken on a
writ of certiorari before the Supreme
Court and now await Judgment. The
sale was postponed one week, but it is not
likely to take place then.
After the adjournment a very hot alters
cation took place between Manager Null
lone and Contractor Hilltop. Theif
quarrel was somewhat personal.
CALLED lard NAMES.
Hillpot told about sinding money Oh
the theatre and called Mr.. Mullane hard
names. Horace and William Farrier
who nave a claim Of $1,000 against
the theatre took a part in the
argument. The crowd adjourned to the
sidewalk and Mr.. KillpoJ became very
belligereuG. He made demonstrations as
II to attack Mr.. MulloLe, but others in
terfered. The adjournment Is said TO
have made a lot OF bad feeling.
The gentlemen directly concerned are
very reticent about the affair.
Mr.. Mullone said The report that he and
Mr.. Hi1lpot nearly came to blows was
absurd.
1--WE had a lot conversation" said he,
''and that was all. WANTED to do some
thing and ne didn't want me to. That
was all there was of it."
The affair has made a good deal Of
talk.

Did This Bride Desert Another-Match

Justice OF the Peace Martinez was call
ed upon yesterday to marry a couple who,
it is said, had met for The first time an
hour previous. The bride was
Miss Lena Knosky Of No.
1913 Essex street. n The
bridegroom, Edward A. Wright. an en-
gineer, OF Nc. T6 Morris street. The bride
was neatly attired and looked as If she
bad made preparations for the wedding.
On the other hand, the bridegroom APP
peared as if he had just left his workshop.
He was atsired in mis- everyday clothes, and
a rent in his trousefs suggested the idea
that he had been jumping over a bar0ed
wire fence. He was very much in need
of a shave. The bride wore evening
gloves-the kind that run up to the
shouIder-and it took her some ten min
utes to remove one. in order to have the
ring placed on her finger.
The fact that the couple had become
acquainted one with the other only an
hour previously caused some curiosity,
aud, considering the appearance of
both, it was limited that the
girl had dressed to wed an
other. but meeting Wright became in
fatuated with him and deserted her first
choice. Both were ~reticeut, and left APP
parently as happy as could be.

BoONToN TO HAVE E SEWERAGE.
Boonton's sewage is the bone OF con-
tention, but the minds of the officials
were set at rest when Engineer Van
Duyne announced that he had q contract
to furnish Boonton with a supply OF
water and also to sewer it. All the Boon
ton sewage is to be carried to a point on
the Rockaway, below the proposed intake
so that question is forever settled.
Some talk was raised concerning dwell
lings on the west bank of the river, which,
because of their location must drain into
The RocKaway, on or near the intake. En-
gineer Van Duyne says that this pollution
can be cared for by running a small
pipe across the river. and connecting it
with the main drain pipes Of Boonton
below the intake.
POLLUTION IMPOSSIBLE.
Every ~polluting obstacle removed, the
inspecting party seemed to be OF one
mind, that no better place or purer
water could possibly be purchased than
that at the disposal of MoffetU, Hodg-
