Mr.. LYONS had presented TO him q

JOHN STRICKER SIGNED.

An Emergency Infielder Secured for the
Local Tenn.
That the Messrs. Wagner are disposed to give
Washington a. good a nine as can be obtained
is indicated by their latest act in signing John
Stricken for an emergency infelder. Manager
O'Rourke went over to Philadelphia yesterday
to confer with the Wagner brothers as to the
advisability Of securing Stricken, and, while
Mr.. O'Rourks was not asking for any more
feeders, he conceded the ACCESSIBILITY OF
strengthening the team as much as possible.
Stricken is engaged not to supplant Joyce.
Wise or Sullivan, but to be ready to take the
place of any infielder who is incapacitated for
playing Yet Mr.. ORourke will play no favor
ties The man who best fills the position
will be put there. Many dollars were lost last
year because in an emergency there was no one
to fill an irfed position. The Wagners do not
intend to be caught mapping this season.
Stricken is reliable player. full of ginger
and fairly strong at the bat. He played with st.
Louis and Baltimore last year and took part in
100 games. He made So runs, % sacrifice hits,
stole 20 bases and his fielding average was .925.
His batting average PSI. He ranked
eleventh among the second bassmen. outrank-
ing such players Ward, Crooks. Dowd and
Canayan. He has been frequently seen here
with the Cleveland and Boston teams, and was
one OF those who by their agility gave to the
former team the sobriquet Of spiders"

Witness explained that Wards walk was nm

he was under the influence of LIQUOR Witness
left him there. Ward had horse and buggy
there at that time
Witness said that Ward seemed to be able TO
take care Of himself barring accidents. and
during the conversation he had with him Ward
asked witness II he (witness) was after him
Witness answered that he did not want him
today. and Ward said: If you want me you
had better take me before SATURDAY. as YOU
won't get me if you don't"
Ward repeated this conversation and witness
gathered from what he said that Ward either
intended to leave this part Of the country or
commit suicide.
MoroRMAN SWEETS STATEMENT.
Motorman Sweet, who has been under arres.
since last night, also made statement of the
affair. The accident occurred ut about $40
o'clock

about three feet Of the pole be saw the form of
something fall right before the car
Witness applied the brake and reversed his
current, but the car was on the man before he
could possibly stop it.

death.

A
Revolution
In Eating

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery of this product, and the
demonstration Of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is well known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstain entire
y from everything of that kind.
To such people, CorToLENE is Of
peculiar value, widening as it
does. the range Of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel. 1t confines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting colo-, a delicate favor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CorToLENE is worthy Of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, Of itself or for
its hygienic properties.

A GOOD APPOINTMENT.
That of MI. ID. 1. Murphy, to Be First Deputy
Pension Comm ssioner.

That of Mr.. ID. 1. Murphy, to Be First Deputy
Pension Commissioner.
In a general way it was rather expected by
men usually well informed ON District affairs
that the President would send in today the
names Of the men who will sit on the bench of
The new Court of Appeals. The usual batch of
appointments. however, which reached the
Senate shortly after IL o'clock was entirely
silent on the question Of the new court. It,
however, contained, as noted elsewhere, the
name of Dominick l. Murphy Of Washington,
d. c., as first deputy commissioner of
pensions. This appointment was well re-
ceived at the Capitol among the large
number Of men who seemed to know Mr..
Murphy, he being one of the family Of that
name who have for many years held such a
prominent part in the stsnography connected
with the Senate. The people at the Capitol
who know Mr.. Murphy say that his equipment
for the position to which he has been appointed
is of the highest possible order. For many
years he occupied positions OF constantly in
creasing importance in the pension office. For
the past four years he has been engaged In the
pension business on street, and therefore, as
his friends point out, his equipment consists OF
the department
The fact that the President did not send in
the names of the appeal judges today will prob
ably throw the appointments over until next
week. The general impression seems to pre-
vail today that the Senate will adjourn about
the middle of next week. although nothing in
anyway definite is known on tie subject and
the adjournment will depend entirely on when
Mr.. Cleveland has nothing further to send to
that body. AS Senator Harris expressed it this
morning. referring to the report that the Sem
ate would adjourn today or tomorrow: "Thc
Senate will stay here as long as the President
has any thing for it to do. and there is nobody
except the President who knows when that
point will be reached. Anybody, however,
who says the Senate will adjourn this week is u
mighty poorly informed man"

Question.

A New Phase of the Sunday Ice Delivery
Question.
The delivery Of ice on Sundays will be sus-
pended this summer, as i. WAS last year As is
well known this action is the result Of the de-
termination Of the drivers Of ice wagons to
have one day of rest in the week. There has
been some opposition expressed on the part Of
the public. but now there is a new phase Of the
case. The medical society have taken
action, and at the last meeting
committee was appointed to consider the mat.
ter and report at the next meeting what action.
IL any, was necessary in the premises. This
committee hns not yet formulated its report,
but member told STAR reporter today that
the situation would be considered purely from
sanitary standpoint Many OF the doctors con-
slider that IT would be unsanitary both in
the preparation and in the preservation of food.
and especially IN the of food intended for
infants, if during the hot weather the delivery
of ice was suspended from Saturday to Mon6av
II is believed by many of the doctors that
there should be a delivery either late on Satur-
day or early on Sunday. Whatever action is
taken, the doctor said, will be based entirely
on sanitary grounds.
