VITRIOL BLOCKS TROLLEY.

A vitriol tank belonging to Charles
Cooper & Co. of no. 1874 Worth street,
New York City. this noon blocked the
trolley cars on Grand street for over half
an hour. The tank was being drawn
dawn Grand street by three horses. At
Jersey avenue the wheels got caught in
the switch. In an endeayor to turn out
the driver swerved the wagon and the
rear axle broke on both sides.
The wagon fell right on the switch,
where it blocked all cars going to the
ferry The horses could not pun it aside.
A Newark car was the first one that came
along. The motorman wanted to push
the wagon off with his car. but the
driver wouldn't listen to it, saying that
the tank would surely break, and the
vitrol be spilled. 1t was nearly twenty
minutes before the wrecking wagon of
the Traction Company arrived.
1t was ten minutes more before they
decided what to do, and then it took
them about ten minutes to move the
obstruction. They got a, couple of jacks
from nearby wlheelwright, lacked the
tank up and fastened a beam under it.
1t was then an easy matter. for the
horses to pull it aside. In the forty
minutes that the block lasted over ff-
teen cars, with passengers, were de-

The coast is ice-bound, and communica-
ton either by sea or land is impossible.
In consequence of this condition of

field hospitals until spring. In the mean
time the sick and wounded of the first
army will be sent to Japan, there being
ample means of communication and
transportation.
A despatch to the Central News from
Shanghai says that Monkden is in a state

Within a short time 12,08O additional
soldiers have arrived there, and with
each fresh arrival matters become worse.

SKATED INTO THE CANAL.
Captain McKaSa's Son Severely In
Iured and Nearly Drowned.

Edward McKaig, son of Archibald Nc
Kaig, Captain of the Fourth precinct
police, last night barely escaped drown
ing. He was skating on the Morris
Canal, near Claremont. at nine o'clock.
He was going along at good rate of
speed when suddenly he felt the ice Civ
ing away under him. He made des-
perate effort to get over the weak spot,
but was unsuccessful The canal in
that place is deep, and young IcKaig
soon found himself foundering about in
water up to his eyes. In falling he hit
his chin on the ice and tore the flesh
The only persons near were two young
ladies and man. The ladies were skat-
ing behind McKaig, and all but went
in after him. The man didn't notice the
accident and McKaig was left to eff
feet his own rescue. He kept his head
about him, and by dint of much exer-
ton managed to work his way ashore,
breaking the ice before him. When he
had a chance to think of anything he
found that his chin was hanging and
that 1t was bleeding profusely.
It was with difficulty that he walked
home, as his wet clothes ffroze to his
limbs, and he was chilled through. He
had to have his chin sewed up. He
will always carry an ugly scar to re-
mind him of his adventure.

A PALAUE BURNED.
The Mast Residence I'm Springfield a
C7parre6 Huiu.

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, Jan. 8, 1884,
AT $3.50 this morning the palatial home of
Mr.. P. P. Masct on West High street
erected as a monument to himself, and
coasting 100000 was discovered on fire
by Mrs. Mast, who was i'll. She notified
Mr.. Mast, who found that the first floor
was in a blaze and the flames were COM
ing up the elevator. The Fire Depart
ment was called and chemicals applied
but the fire had gained such headway
that nothing could be done with it and
the water was turned on.
The hose filed up with gravel and a
heavy pressure could not be obtained.
The blaze got to the roof and burned
under cover for an hour. The firemen
were badly handicapped in fighting it..
The interior of the residence was almost
entirely destroyed. The fire caught from
the furnace and went up the elevator.
Miss Elizabeth Mast barely escaped with
her life and only half clothed. Miss
Florence Mast bravely gathered all the
family jewels and assisted her sister out.
Mrs. Mast was carried across the
street to the residence of Charles Stroud
and is very i'll. Mr.. Mast is also pros
trated from exposure. The magnificent
furniture, coasting $4,000 is ruined by
fire and water. The building was insured
for $4,000, and contents for $4,000. The
entire loss is estimated at S225, ,000

A MODERN PATRIARCH.

James Watkins, of Western West
Virginia, passed through Cincinnati
the other day on his way to Clark
County, Kas. He has been married
four times and has had forty children.
OF those at the depot with him
there were three sets of twins and one
of triplets. Another remarkable fact
is that all of the children are still hv-
ing, and twenty-five of them are mar
ried and have families of their own. Al
though not of a very advanced age, he
has 12O grandchildren, eighty great
grandchildren and five great-great-
grandchildren, or 245 direct descendants.
Some ten years ago a number of these
went to Clark County, Kas., and formed
colony. Since then they have endeav-
ored to induce the father to sell his
mountain farm in West Virginia and join
them. He succeeded in disposing of his
place few weeks ago. and is now on
his way to Kansas, where he has al
ready purchased land.-Exchange

CRUEL TO MAN AND BEAST ALIKE
Brutal. Otto KarIinger Gets Into
Trouble with the 8. p. G. A.

IrOUDao WIN tine y. e. &c a.
John McAleer, newly appointed Agent
of the S. P. c. A. of Hudson County
had an experience this morning which
he is not likely to forget very soon.
Yesterday afternoon McAleer stopped
Otto Karlinger and proceeded to ex-
anime the horse he was driving. McAleer
discovered a sore on the horses chest
under the collar, and told Karlinger
that if he drove the horse again without
having a pad upon the sore he would ar
rest him. Karlinger, who is a foot tai
ler and about fifty pounds heavier than
Agent McAleer, only laughed at the
youthful officer, and whipped up his
horse, at the same time hitting McAleer
in the face with the whip.
This morning McAleer saw Karlinger
near Monroe street, Hoboken, driving
the same horse, in the same condition.
Stopping the horse he ordered Karlinger
down off the wagon, although it was
hardly necessary to do so, as Karlinger
was on the ground almost as soon as
McA1eer had taken hold of the horse.
Without any words the big, burly driver
when he got tired of using those he used
the butt end OF the whip smashing Nc
Aleer's hat and head.
Officer Hayes of Police Headquarters
happened to be near at the time and he
ran to McAleer's assistance, and kar-
linger was arrested

But Scares Away Her AssaSlatat.
Miss NIilla Zette. a pretty brunette,
who lives at No. 70 Hudson street, mar
rowly escaped, last night. being the vic
tim of an assault which brings to mind
the Barrowcliff mystery of a year ago.
Miss Zette is a mflliner, and lives with
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Davenport. She was
at work on Jersey City Heights yester-
day. and about nine O'Clock last even
ing reached Hobolen on her way home.
AS she was walking down Ferry street
she passed a rough-looking man at the
corner of Washington street, but did
not think anything of it, and kept hurry
ing on. AS she reached Court alley,
dark, lonesome lane, the man she
had just passed grabbed her around the
neck with one arm and with the other
around the waist, dragged her into
the alley.
Miss Zette struggled, and tried to call
for help, but the man clutched her throat
in such a manner that she couldsnot cry
out. He dragged her about twenty feet,
when he slipped on the ice, and in trying
to recover foothold loosened his arm
about the Woman's neck so that she
could cry for help. This frightened the
man, and with curse he slipped away in
the darkness. AS soon as Miss zette
found herself free from the villains
hands she ran as fast as she could to
her home, two blocks away.
When she entered the house it was
some minutes before she was able to
speak, so thoroughly frightened was she.
Her hair was disheveled and her face
was badly bruised in several places.
She was given some stinulants, and
after few moments related her ex-
Derience.
AS soon as Mr.. Davenport heard Miss
Zette's, story he reported the matter to
the police. officer Detters was iInmedi-
ately sent out to look for the girls as
sailant, but he could not find him. When
the twelve O'Clock squad went on duty
they were given a description of Miss
Zette's assailant, and told to keep a
strict lookout for him.

that this was another one of the de-

claimed that the defendant had not yet

to answer expires on January S, and the
