JUDGE ROOTS HOUR.

The Fire Ordinance Under Which
 Charles Mil CT Was Prosecuted De
 cl.red no Go .d and the Accused Ac-
 quilted.
 In the police court this morning G. $. Northrop and his wife Eliza were charged with intoXication. Both pleaded guilty. Northrop'S father appeared in court and said that the couple had been lving apart for some time, but met yesterday, he did not know where. Here the man paused and Prosecuting Attorney O'Neill finished the sentence by adding "and started in to celebrate the event" The judge sus- pended sentence on the woman, even though she had been before the court be- fore for the same offense. but fined the man S1 and costs adding. the man who has a wife and does not respect himself and his wife any better than to be seen drunk on the public streets Is not possessed of much real manhood.
 Mary Daly, an old offender. was sent to iail for fifteen days for the same old offense, drunkenness.
 Sentence was suspended in the case of Abraham Cabana, charged with breach of thepeace and assault on William Voltage.
 The case of Charles Miller was then called. Judge Root said that he had given the subject the closest attention. It was the duty or me court 10 nlalul-1 II hll lut ordinances of the city; still it was the duty of the court to do justice to the individual as we'll as to the city. He read the differ ent parts of the charter bearing on the matter. and thought that the court of com. mon council had no right to make such sweeping rules. They are an infringe ment on the right of a private citizen The judge ridiculed the idea of the com- mon council passing a law that man must not remove building without per missicn. "Supposing' he said, the e"building should be a good distance from the high way and the owner can sell it and have it removed without coming near public highway or interfering with any one, he cannot do so without permission under these rules The ordinance states tAet man shall not put such and such a roof on any building, so that it does not refer to a frame building no more than to one of some other kind" In conclusion Judge Root said: "The common council had the right to make laws and enforce them, compelling people to conform to certain rules and regulations. but as judge of criminal court will not hold a citizen cul- pablo that might act in opposition to such laws as Mir Miller refused to be governed by. I there declare Mir Miller not guilty

Two Cities Entirely Destroyed and Many
 Lives Probably Lest.
 ATHENS. April 2S. The country had cent earthquakes before another shock has wrought death and destruction in many parts of Greece. Late last night, during the usual Friday procession in the cathe- dral here, a violent shock occurred that seemingly shook the building to its very foundations. The duration of the shock was 15 seconds. The cathedral was crowded Eith devotces. who were on the verge of a panic when the shock began.
 M. Bouphides minister of the interior, who only a few days ago returned from Chalcis and other places damaged by the previous shocks, hurried to the central tel egraph office to get information as to the extent of the earthquake. He learned that it had been felt throughout the country, and that immense damage had been done. The shock was felt with the greatest verity at Thcbes and Atalanta, both of which places were extensively damaged by the last shock. Both the cities were completely destroyed, not a single house being left standing. lncalcu!able damage was also done at Lamia, l.ayisSl, Nolo, ChalCis and PatraS.

Sullivan Tins Corbett.

John l.. Sullivan recently gave the fol- lowing as his opinion of the result of the Corbett-J Jackson battle: Barring accidents, think Corbett ought to win. Here are my reasons for so thinking: First, other things being as nearly equal as may be-height, weight and strength-the Californian has the better of the big black in point of age and naturally possesses more vitality and endurance. He is but 9 and Jackson S2. Five years at this time of life make tre- mendous difference in any kind of ath- letic game. and most especially that of pu- gilism. Then, again, he Is shiftier on his feet and little quicker and cleverer with his hands than the Australian. At dncking "a dangerous practice unless you are an artist in the business-he is away ahead of Jackson.
 "These qualities will, think, more than offset any advantage which the dark skin- ned boxer may have in the way of reach. Then, too, Corbett has been lucky enough to escape without receiving much punish ment in any of his fights, while Jackson has been terribly pommeled twice-once when he met Bill Farnham in Australia and was whipped, and again more recently when he fought Frank P. Slavin in London, and, although the victor, was the more in furaG1 man-n

THoMpsoNvILLE. April 2S.-The local police have not succeeded in obtaining any tangible clue of the men who robbed the Spencer bank Thursday noon. and it begins to look doubtful that they ever will. All trace of the men after they left the team at Gees livery stable in Holyoke is lost. It cannot be learned how they left Holyoke and the detectives at work on the case are utterly baffied. Deputy Sheriff HuIlivan of this place is hopeful that the burglars will be captured and claims to have reason for believing that they took a train for Montreal. The police at Spring field, Holyoke. Worcester and other cities In Massachusetts have learned nothina.

The Police Can Find No Trace of the
 Murderera. s@-
 The police have found no trace of the Italian murderers. They do not believe that the men are hiding in the city. al- though many people believe that they are being harbored by some of their friends.
 It was said this morning, although no one could vouch for the report, that the murdered man was himself a murderer, having killed a man in Philadelphia seven years ago. The reason that a reward was not offered for the arrest of Frank Testa, who stabbed Tomasso Valletto to death over a year ago. is said to have been because of a little coldness existing between the states attorney for New Haven county and Gov ernor Morris.
