HARRIS TO BE RESENTENCED.
Alleged New York Murderer Arraigned
Before Recorder SmYth.

Alleged New York Murderer Arraigned
Before Recorder Smyth.
NEW YORK, March 20.-Rarely, II
ever, has there been SO much excite
ment around the dark, grim, building Of
the Court of General Sessions as there
was this morning. Carlyle w. Harris,
after having exhausted every possible
means to escape the penalty for
the murder of his wife, was to
be finally resentenced by Re-
corder Smyth. No one was allowed to
enter except newspaper men who were
authenticated and persons bearing
tickets of admission signed by the Dis
trict Attorney. The courtroom was
crowded by 10 o'clock. A dense throng
of men, boys and women, too, sur
rounded the building.
Harris was brought into court hand
cuffed to an officer. His skin was sal
low, his eyes large and sunk
en- and under them deep blue
rings. And no wonder. The fe-
rocious strain of anxiety the
young man has been undergoing
would reduce the vital forces of the
strongest When Harris was asked by
the court if he had anything to say
why sentence should not be passed
upon him he leaned both hands on the
rail, bent forward and began to speak
in tones SO low that the deputy who
stood close beside him on each side
could not hear what he said and leaned
their heads to catch the words. There
was buzz of whispering among the
spectators, which was stopped by the
court.
Later
When Harris reached the tombS on his
return there was big crowd waiting
Three cheers and a tiger for Harris, y
cried some one. They were given and
Harris walked inside with smile on
his face.
Once inside Of the prison he said:
"Well, its all over now, but am ready
to die, although I declare solemnly
am an innocent man. I feel like a
man who has done a good days work
and is tired. I am surprised at the way
/ hold out"
Lawyer Howe said that in accordance
with the special request Of Harris nc
mass meeting would be held In his be-
half. His lawyers are confident an ap-

A CITIZENS TICKET.
Movement on Foot to Place One in the
Field.
An Earnest Meeting of Business Men
Field Last Night-LiberaI Bosses
in Peck of Trouble.

The Liberal politicians are all at sea
and know not which way to tnrn.
The decent men of that party are dis
gusted with the record made during the
past two years, and are just now in a
frame of mind to take any step that will
release this fair city from the curse of
Liberal misrule. For some days past a
plan to put a citizens ticket in the field
has been under consideration by
Liberals with Republican leanings, and
1t is understood that meeting will be
held early this week to take some action
on the matter.
Another body of citizens held an en-
thusiastic meeting last night, at which
the subject of tax payers or popular
ticket was discussed.
Nothing definite was decided upon
however, further than it was unani-
mously agreed that there would be Cit
would not be engineered by the
Tribune or its henchmen either.
Expressions bristling with condemna-
ton OF the disgraceful and ruinous
course of the two last administrations
were made in most emphatic and sig
ni6cant manner. and a calm and careful
plan Of redemption outlined.
e At the meeting were number of the
most representative business men in the
community who, without exception, de-
clared that for once they would throw the
question of politics to the wind so far as
the municipal election was concerned
ana install in the numerous positions of
trust that the city government affords,
men OF business capacity, character aud
well established regulations for honesty.
Said one of them who has heretofore al
ways voted with and worked for the Lib
eral party: "The time has come to turn
the rascals out. feel that it is not an
occasion for many words but rather for
good work. Once out of power the
party OF plumber and spoliation
will die. No party ever died in Office and
the only way to sound the death knen OF
this greatest enemy of the territory's pro-
gress is to turn its manlpulators out to
pick for themselves.
Another meeting OF these gentlemen
will also he held shortly, and it may now
be considered as certain that there will be
ticket in the field this fall.

SOCIETY ALL AGOG.
The Masquerade Ball the Talk OF the
Town.
The Managers Have Decided to Make no
Advance in the Rates-A special Train
of Closed Coaches for AIasqueraders.

The men VINO know something of the
great French and German masquerade
balls and who have been gouged g. co
for checking their hats and this
after they have paid S. for an
admission ticket, may marvel at
the cheapness of the prices exaeted for
the Saltair carnival, which occurs Tues
day, the 18th instant.
The managers have decided TO make no
extra charge, the fifty cent railroad ticket
admitting the holder to the pavilion. The
expense attached to getting up the ball is
so great that the free list must be entirely
suspended on this occasion and every per-
son buy ticket.
There are number of ladies who have
gone to the expense of prepar-
ing elaborate costumes. The managers
will place closed coaches on the train
leaving the city at 1880 p. m, which will
be reserved exclusively for those in cos
tune.
The ball proper will begin at 9 O'Clock
sharp with q grand march and the floor
will be reserved exclusively for masquer-
aders until II O'Clock. At this hour the
masks may be removed and those without
masks or costumes can participate in the
ball. the last train will leave the beach
at O'Clock a. m.
No attempt was ever before made in thu
far west to iDaugurate masquerade ball
on the same gorgeous scale and magniti-
cent proportions as the midsummer car
nival, for the reason that such thing
was impossible prior to the completion OF
the great pavilion.
The spectacle of 2, ZOO moving forms in
the costumes Of all nations circling about
under the great arched roof with its 1 COO
incandescent lights will be one of the
most gorgeous and magnificent ever seen
in the west.
