FUN WITH AN AGENT.
He Calls to Collect and is Gagged in the
House and Beaten.

Noise much like a horse kicking out the
side Of barn attracted the residents Of
West Raspberry alley to No 224. The
racket continued for some moments until
a man was shot out the front door, into
the yard. He was hatless speechless,
bruised and bleeding from cuts in the
neck, and was torn up generally. He
surveyed himself, pulled his garments to-
gether, took good look at the door
| through which ne had just made a hasty
exit and started off for Justice Cardin's
office
He introduced himself to the genial
Squire as William Ryan, installment
agent and a resident of Brownsville He
had been beaten by Lewis Grabloskis and
his stout wife Agnes, and wanted war
rant for their arrest. While Constable
| Bolan served the summons, MIR. Ryan
told the story of his adventure
He had called at the Grabloskis' domi-
cile to collect an account about a month
ago, when the woman kept him at bay at
the end of a broom until she could slam
the door in his face When the door was
opened for him yesterday Ryan stepped
gracefully inside The woman promptly
fastened the door and called for her hus-
band, They denied owing him, claimed
but two weeks residence in odorous Rasp-
berry, and when the agent insisted

and backed his big antagonist up in a
corner whereupon Mrs. Grabloskis lay
hold broom and did her prettiest TO break
it over the solicitors head. He was kept
lodging pretty lively and instead re.
ceived them on the neck. The Grabloskis
closed in upon him, but the wiry Ryan
slipped away from and toward the door,
through which his flight was aided by the
boots and broom of the angry Poles.
The defendants were placed under bail
for their appearance at court

THE RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
Mrs. Grant the Worst Injured-All Ex'
cept Miss Stein in Bed.


All the victims of the runaway acci-
dent on Fowler's public road are making
good pfogress towards recovery, although
it will be some time before some Of them
will be able to go about without some
inconvenience, especially in the case of
Mrs Jane Grant, who suffers from trac-
ture of the right thigh. This was de-
termined after Mrs. Grant recovered from
the shock last evening. The fracture is
not a severe one, but the injury is made
serious by the fact that Mrs. Grant is
close upon sixty years of age. Mr.. and
Mrs. Stein are confined to their
beds, but are making good progress
towards recovery. MIR. Stein was
bruised worse than was at first
supposed and spent a very restless
night, but rested easy to day. Mrs. Stein
has recovered from the shock and rests
easy. Miss Annie Stein is able to leave
her bed and walk about the house. Mrs
Grant is very much worried over pair OF
gold spectacles, which she lost in the acci
dent. She praised them highly as gift
from the late William Grant, her hus
band.

JUSTICE NJ tREhANa FIRST.
Gladstone snys He Hasn't Changed
His Mind.


London special: Gladstone recently
received an address from his constit-
uents in Midlothian, in which he was
requested to represent that borough
IN Commons. Replying to the address,
Gladstone has written a letter declar-
ing that his chief desire will be to fol-
low the wishes of the conitituents he
represents. He adds:
'There will naturally be a change in
my attendance at Parliament. I can
not yet judge how far my sight and
hearing will disable me from perform
Ing Parliamentary duties"
Proceeding to review his public life
OF sixty years, Gladstone says his ca
9 has been a history of political,
economical, social, moral and intellect
ual emancipation. "For myself. he
says. II carry out Of Office the same
political opinions l protested while in
It, l lament that the discrepancy of
sentiment between the two houses of
Parliament is in such a form as to ne
cessitate a conclusive Judgment from
the country. am deeply convinced
that until the just demands of Ireland
are satisfied, as the Commons has tried
to satisfy them. Neither the legislative
wants of any portion of the United
Kingdom be adequately met, nor
will the empire attain its maximum
union of power, nor will its dishonor
be effectively cleared of the deepest
historic strain ever attached to it."

Bands of Students in Budapest Com,
pei People to Mourn.

tyGA SOLpAS ~ ANAOuAIbhs
Budapest special: The Government
has SO far yielded to the popular de-
mand regarding the respect to be
shown by it to the mernoryof Kossuth
that it caused to be raised upon the
state buildings the national flag draped
with craze. Crowds of students went
about the city smashing the windows
and gas lamps in front of the houses
on which no mourning was displayed,
and driving actors and audiences from
theaters and music halls in which per-
formances were being given. The po-
lice made attempts to arrest the dis
turbers, but the students resisted them
and a number of sanguinary street con-
licts took place. When strong bands
of students entered the Royal Opera
House and the National Theater, the
attaches and police stations ut these
places attempted to prevent them.
The students fought their way to the
boxes of tho houses and stopped the
performance. They demanded that
banners be displayed, and upon their
being met with refusals they them
selves hoisted mourning banners they
had brought with them over the boxes.

Away in Turin, Italy.
Turin special: Louis Kossuth died
at 1855 O'clock the morning of the Goth.
kossuth's end was extremely painful.
He showed signs of consciousness until
the last, and expired in the arms of
his son, pressing the hand of the Hum
garian deputy, karalyi. The members
ofhis family and a few intimate friends
stood around his bedside. Nothing is
yet settled in regard to the details of
the funeral. The municipal author
tiles offered to allow the remains to he
buried in the Pantheon here.
Lajos, NJ Louis Kossuth, the Hun
garian patriot whose name has long
been a household word throughout all
civilization, vas born April 81. 1892, at
Menok, in the county of Zemplin,
Hungary.
That he was a patriot there Gun he
no doubt. Perhaps he was rather too
much inclined to consider himself and
the "cause" as one, but that is q COM
mon failing of patriots when they be-
come popular idols. The principal
fact is that he devoted himself with
all his heart to establishing the inde-
pendenco of the Hungarian nation.
His hold upon his countrymen was
marvellous. They followed implicitly
wherever he led.

of Mrs. Simmons, charged with fail
ure to enforce the prohibitory law. on
trial in Justice Grants court has re-
suited in q verdict in favor of the
ladies. Crippcn gave bonds for his APP

The case attracted wide attention and
the ladies are jubilant over their VIC
tory. 1t is said that if the mayor will
agree to enforce the law the crusade
will stop, otherwise it will be pushed
with renewed vigor, and other city of
ficials are likely to get into trouble.
The evidence produced at the trial of
Crippen will be used should other ar
rests follow. When asked If the cru
SADIE would continue one of the leaders
said: "That depends entirely upon
the action OF the mayor and other city
officials. The ladies have undertaken
TO see that the laws are enforced and
the places Of vice closed, and will fight
until their object is accomplished II it
takes all summer. The victory al
ready achieved will have a salutary
effect, and public sentiment is strone-
ly in favorof continuing the warfare
unless the laws are enforced"
