Delegation of Business Men Think Bend Should be Made in the Proposed Little Orange Street Extension.

Orange Street Extension. \ George Fl. Ford, c. c. Smith repre- senting the New Haven Baking com pany, Abner Hendee, Frank c. Bush nell w. J. AtWater and A. H. Hurlburt were before the committee on streets last evening and were heard in refer ence to the proposed layout of an ex- tension of Orange street, from George street to Water.
 None of the delegation was opposed to cutting the street through, but thought it a mistake to insist on it's taking straight line when it could be put through at much less expense if a slight bend were made in the layout. The petition was tabled.
 The committee voted to instruct the board of compensation to return all papers to the court of common council relating to the layout of Gibb street,
 The petition of Henry O'Neil ct al. for a sidewalk on Lawrence street, south side, between Whitney avenue and St Roman street, will be recom- mended and ordered completed by Co., tober 1.
 Petition of George R. Hardy for the CNAtNS'SA street was withdrawn, as was the peti- tion of J. H. Storey for concrete walk on Middletown avenue.
 The same disposal was made of the petition of J. J. Kennedy to top-dress Rosette street, between Howard ave- hue and Cedar street.
 The remonstrants against the order for a concrete walk on Dewitt street were given leave to withdraw.
 The layout of an extension of Button street, from Rosette, will be recom- mended
 The committee will recommend that Veto street be changed to Audubon street, between Orange and State streets.
 The resolution providing that the board of public works shall use all dil- igence in putting the present paved streets in good repair will be taken un- der consideration; also the advisability of having streets watered at night.
 Alderman Guernsey withdrew his pe- tition for the watering of streets at night.

Hobart. Every seat in the hall was filled. Ed ward Lauterbach, of the county com mittee, acted as chairman of the com mittee. He predicted that at the next election at least 10000 republicans would cast their votes in the city for Mckinley and Hobart.

 He declared that the party could not lose on the issue of protection and hon est money. MT. Platt concluding said: "The republicans of New York are united in behalf of the candidates that were nominated and the platform that was adopted at St. Louis. 1 hope they will be no less united in all matters that affect the welfare of their party and the honor of their state. Let us throw ourselves into the campaign with such intelligence, such enthusiasm and such cordial cooperation as will leave no one when the fight is over outside the breastworks.' And as an earnest ot this purpose let us give three cheers for Mckinley, Hobart and Harmony"

HIHYARD'S NiNE WiNs.
Defeats University of Pennsylvania in 8
 Close Contest.

Boston, June .-Harvard's baseball season came to an end to-day on Holmes Field, when the home nine blanked the University of Pennsylvania team by the score of ? to 0. The game was very dull and there was little en- thusiasm felt or expressed either by spectators or players. The HarVards were exasperatingly weak at the bat, getting only four hits. The visitors had only one less, although it was plain that they were more puzzled by Pain than were the crimson by Ritchie. The best individual work was by Pain, Johnston and Haughton. Chandler, for Harvard, had a decidedly off day, mak- ing all the errors on his side. The score:

GOYERNMENT OVERTHROWN.
Conservatives Defeated in Bitter Elections
 in Canada.

Toronto, June 23.-The general cleo tions for the Dominion parliament took place throughout the Dominion to-day, and the contest was probably the most hotly contested and in some respects the most bitter in the history of Can ada The result is the complete over throw of the conservative government led by Sir Charles Tupper.
 While the tariff question was the most important issue of the campaign, the Manitoba school question aroused a greater degree of enthusiasm and eX- citement, and a leading feature in the election was the double-headed policy of the conservative party on that ques- tion in many conservatives running as supporters of the government on all questions except as regards it's Mani toba remedial legislation. Three cabi net ministers in the Tupper govern ment were defeated, viz, Hon, A. R. Dickey minister of justice; Hon. l.. o. Taillon, postmaster general; Hon. A. Desjardines, minister of public works.
 Hon. Wilfred Laurier, the liberal leader, was elected for two constitu- encies-Quebec east and Saskatchewan. Dalton Mccarthy, leader of the inde- pendents, was also elected for two con- tituencies-North Simcoe and Bran don. Hon. Joseph Martin, a leading liberal and author of the present Mani- toba school law, was defeated in Win nipeg by Hon. J. Macdonald, son of the late Sir John A. Macdonald.

the seventh most auspiciously. Trudeau let out a beauty of a three bagger, the first of the game. Bartlett hit up a splendid fly, which was pulled in by Altman, but before the ball could get to the diamond Trudeau had scored and tied the count-3 to 3.
 The game now was fast until the end of the ninth with the score still tied. In the tenth both teams were shut out with goose eggs, In the eleventh inning things began to go Yale's way. Trudeau led out with another three-bagger, this making his second and only two of the game. The crowd then went wild. Hats parasols, canes and coats were sent into the air and pandemonium reigned among the Yale heelers, while on the Princeton bleacher everything was quiet. Bartlett next fouled out and Keator got first on a nice little bunt. De Saulles then bunted and Trudeau tried to reach home, but was 'trun down." De Saulles was nailed at second and then Yale's last chance was gone, as Princeton in her half of the inning won the game. Gunster began by fouling out to Murphy. Ward got
 
 and it began to look as though there would be a twelfth inning, but Easton was next given first on balls and Kelly hit out fine one to left, which brought Ward, who had in the meantime stolen third home. The Princeton team and heelers at once went wild. But the members of the Yale team were dum- founded at the sudden turn affairs had taken and Greenway, who had done good work in the box for Yale, was so disappointed that the tears flowed down his cheeks. Murphy, who had done all in his power to win the game, was also much broken up. The playing of Keator, Trudeau, Greenway and Murphy for Yale was especially com mendable, while for Princeton Wilson, Altman Gunster and Ward did some fine work.
 The score by innings was as follows: Princeton ........0 o ? 0 0 1 0 0 0 1-4 Yale ..............2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0,-3
