IMPORTED GOODS SEIZED.
StcrcOpticOns Said to Have Been
Consigned IN EarthcnWnrr.

Special Treasury Department agents
have seized twelve stereopticons and two
cases of appliances in the premises Of
Pitt e. Scott, at 80 Broadway. The goods,
it is said, were imported as earthenwarc
and consigned to the firm named, and 1t
is believed by the Treasury agents that
there has been a violation OF the Customs
laws in the transaction.
The goods are valued at $500. They
were first stored in a bonded warehouse.
but when Pitt e. Scott had them removed
TO their place yesterday the seizure fol-
owed.
Pitt & Scott, who are Euronean eN-
press agents, refused to give the name
OF the party TO whom the goods were
shipped.
They say that there has probably hcen
n mistake made by the European hio
pers in making the case. They thought
that some case of earthrnware goods
had probaly been marird stereoptiSons
when the latter We're marked earthcn-
ware.

TO GET A LITTLE WARMER
Young America Will Accordingly
lie Cheated Out of Skating.

Forecaster Dunn predicted this morn
ing that 1t would be just a little warmer
tomorrow. lie said the change In tenn
perature would only be slight.
The severest part of the cold wave in
this city was last night, when the tenn
pe%rature fell to 25 degrees above zero. 1t
remained at Z degrees below freezing
point nearly all night, and MIR. Dunn
thought there surely must be skating.
The Park Board officials said this
morning that Van Cortlandt Park Lake
was not frozen thick enough to make
skating. Receiver Andrew Freeman. Of
the Manhattan Club. says the ice on
Manhattan Field is not thick enough to
open up for the public. He will light up
the field tonight and admit IA few
friends, but he thinks the ice Is not
strong enough to hold a crowd.
If by chance 1t should get very cold
this afternoon. so that the ice would
thicken. he will open the field to the
public, but according to Mr.. Dunn there
is nc nance for 1t getting colder to-day.
He thinks the temperature Will remain
about stationary to-day.
There may be a little rain or snow to-
morrow. The mercury registered 2S de-
grees in this city at 8 O'Clock this morn
ing. There was a little snow in north
ern New York this morning.

Attorney David Sternlicht Horse

His Promise to Wed Her.

Lawyer David Ssernlecht left his office.
n 2jS Broadway. shortly after / O'Clock
this afternoon and walked rapidly across
City Hail Park to the new Court-House.
\ stylishly dressed brunette, who had
apparently been waiting for Lawyer
Stornlicht to come out OF his Office,
quickly followed him.
She did not catch up to him until near
the entrance of the Court-House. Then
she stepped up to him and Missed into
his ear
You %scoundrel. Take that -
Suiting the action to the word, she
drew from beneath her velvet cloak a
stout rawhi1e whip, and brought It down
with II cruel swish fun on Sternlicht's
face.
The lawyer was o surprised that he
toOd as II paralyzed and the brunette
rained blow after blow on his face and
shoulders.
Finally Sternlicht recovered his senses,
and turning fed back across Broadway
and into his office. A great crowd fol-
lowed both him and the woman.
1t appears from the sSory OF the brti-
nette. who was Miss Nora Beinglass. OF
40 Forsyth street, that .3ternlich was
her recreant lover. He had been en-
gagged to her for five years, she claims.
At the age of fifteen she married
Isaac Rothberg. in Roumania. She cams
to this country eight years ago with her
Husband. She secured a divorce from
him on grounds of inildcllty.
Sternlicht was her lawyer in that case.
ana the interest he took in her. she
alleges. soon Geepened into love.
They were to have ben married last
Sunday night. 1t is alleged, at her moth
er's house. Everything was ready for
the ceremony. but the bridegroom did
not appear.
Afterwards. Miss Beenglass claims.
she learned that Sternlich had gone to
n ball with another woman.
Miss Beinglass consulted Lawyer Wag-
ner, of l2s Second avenue, and decided
to bring a suit for $4,000 damages for
breach of promise. A was
served on Sternlicht last. night.
She decided this morning, however,
that legal redress would not satisfy her,
and so took measures to chastise him..
Lawyer Sternlicht left his office soon
after the whipping, n did not return
during the afternoon. 1t Is said that his
face il badly cut.
His partner, lawyer kaufman. claims
that Miss Geinglass's story is not true.

REPORT or THE STRIKE COM
MISSION.

The report of the federal strike COM
mission, appointed by President Cleve-
land to investigate the A. f. U. strike
OF last summer, is a-remarkable docu-
ment. 1t virtually throws the responsi-
bility for all bloodshed and destruction
of property on the General Managers
association and the Pullman company,
and announces the American Railway
union ie in every respect as legal body
as the Managers association; and finds
that the strikers union was in no way
responsible for the disasters Of July.
Whatever may be thought of the
commission, it's recommendations ap.
pear to be based ON good sense and
reason. In effect it advises the forma.
ton OF q national board of arbitration,
to which it will be compulsory that all
disputes between labor and employer
shall be submitted. 1t further suggests
the incorporation of ali labor unions, 20
that they may have legal standing. the
members to be held responsible for the
actions OF their boards OF directors to
the same extent as stockholders in q
commercial corporation.
The report is worthy OF and must re-
ceive careful consideration before a de-
termination can be properly arrived at
aa to the desirability or practicsblity OF
it's recommendations.
