VERY CONSOLING TO
MATTHEW DEGAN
Gets a New Trial But the Judge Pre-
diets He viii Be Convicted Again.
SOME RATHER SPICY COMMENTS
Judge Archibald Gives a Defendant
Another Chance and Thinks the
Verdict Ought Reasonably to BE
Acquittai But Doubts That ANY
Jury win Look at the Question in
the Right Light--Other Findings in
Cases Court Has Considered.

Among several opinions handed down
in court yesterday was one by Judge
Archibald awarding a new trial in the
case of Anna Moyles against Matthew
Degan, in which the judge takes oc-
casion to make some rather exceptional
statements.
Degan was convicted of deceiving the
girl, with whom he had been keeping
company, and then refusing to marry
her. At the trial of the case the time
of the commission of the crime was
fixed by the girl as June %, 1895, and in
the proceedings for new trial 1t was
proven almost conclusively that Degan
spent the day with his father chopping
lumber on his farm on the east noun
tain The alibi and some "preposter-
Gus" features of the girls story prompt
ed the Judge to grant a new trial
He starts his opinion by saying: THE
defendant will be convicted again, but
he desires another chance and it Is ac-
corded him" Then he goes on to say
that juries invariably believe the girls
story in cases Of this kind, and after
discussing the merits of the case and
particularly the alibi, concludes: ut
ought reasonably to produce differ
ent verdict, though / doubt if it will
40 So
REFEREES REPORT CONSIDERED
In another opinion Judge Archibald
sustainS certain of the exceptions to
the report of the referee in the case OF
A. c. Wall and others against Della f..
Stone and others, and orders that the
case be again submitted to the same
Iaferee to frame another report in ac-
cordance with the views contained in
the opinion.
In the case of J. J. Mangan against
TGtrick Lynn, Judge Archibald directs
that Judgment be opened and the de-
PENDANTS let into a defense. The de-
fendant contends that he did not sign
the note in question.
Judge Gunster discharged the rule
to open Judgment i'm the case Of Will
liam Bell d Son against Sarah c. Rob-
inson. The defendant alleged that she
did not sign the note upon which the
Judgment was entered. Judge Cum
ster concludes from the fair weight
of the evidence and a comparison of
hand writing. that she did sign it.
In the case of G. c. Sapp against the
New YORK Dental parlOrs, Judge Cum
ster overrulei the demurrer to the bill
of complaint and directs the defend
ant to make answer within fifteen
days. The complaint in question is
that the defendants are guilty of an
infringement of DR.. Sapp's rights in
using the trade name, New York Den
tai Parlors."
JUDGMENT STRICKEN OFF.
In the case of ]. W. Guernsey against
A. l.. Holshine Judgment was stricken
off by Judge Gunstar
The rule to open judgment was made
absolute by Judge Archibald in th2
case of John w. Raub against w. A.

THEATRICAL ATTRACTIONS.
BicyCie Club Benefit,

"Shorc Acres" is a drama the public
does not easily tire of because it is true
to nature, 1t is just story of the lives
of plain, homely New England people
told without any apparent effort to secure
stage effects a story Of sunshine and
tears that appc9ls straight to the heart.
1t was produced at the Lyccum last night
as a benefit for the Scranton BicScla
club and it is needless to say the house
was crowded. With such a combination
the result could not be otherwise.
Archie Boyd, who has so many friends
in Scranton that he is almost considered
a native, was the Nathaniel Berry, of the
cast. The latter's kindly, philosoDhc
nature is one that appeals strongly to
Mr.. Boyd and he gives a delightfully."-
clean cut presentation of it. Atkins Law
renee was sufficietly brutal as Martin
Berry to win the warm applause of the
pit and the unstinted condemnation of
the gallery. The company, as whole.
was excellent, the work of Jeanne otis
as Helen Berry being especially clever
and true. The stage settings and Access
sores of the drama left little to be de-
sired.

RUNAWAY WIVES AND HUSBANDS.
Seven Divorce Cases in Which De-
sertion is the Complaint,

Before Attorney NJ. ]. McAndrew,
acting as commissioner, in the stead
of Judge Edwards, testimony in seven
divorce cases was heard yesterday af-
ternoon in the judges chamber.
Jessie c. BengOugh, represented by
Attorney John G. MCAskie, showed
that her husband, John L. Bengough,
to whom she was married May 20,
1890, at Vandlng, deserted her four
years later, February u, 1894, and
since persists in desertion.
George S. Atkins, of Green Ridge,
who seeks divorce from his wife, Anna
Atkins, also alleges desertion. They
We're married in Plainsville, Conn, in
1880, and five years later came to this
city. Mrs. Atkins was very abusive
to him because he would not return to
live in Connecticut and for many years
made his life a burden. Finally he told
her that kind OF thing had to stop and
at this she flared up ard went home.
More than two years have elapsed and
she has not returned. r. A. Zimmer-
man is Mr.. Atkins attorney.
Emma Lance, of Clark's Summit,
also makes desertion the ground for
her petition for divorce. Her husband,
Anthony Lance, after having lived
with her for twenty-five years, left
her in October, 1895, and has never re-
turned. Attorney Frank Okell is her
counsel
Attorney John J. Murphy presented
the case of Marv Ferris whose COM
plant, like the others, is desertion, her
husband, Howard Ferris, having left
her in 1892, after living happily to-
gether for seven years.
Theodore l.. Bennett, of Carbondale,
married his wife, Emma l.. Bennett,
in Philadelphia, April 8, 1894, and
started housekeeping in the Quaker
City. He came home one night in the
September following, and found his
wife and all the portable household
goods missing. He has never since
been able to get track of his wife or
the furniture. Vosburg & Dawson are
assisting him in getting a divorce.
After one brief year of married life
Esther Jones was deserted by her
husband, Isaac w. Jones, to whom she
was married in Binghamton in 1891.
The desertion took place in this city
where they came to live Immediately
after the marriage. Attorney George
ID. Taylor represents the libellant,

Kaiser wilhelm der Crosse Crosses
the Pond in Less Than Six Days.

New York, Nov. pa cablegram
has been received announcing that the
steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse
had arrived at Southampton and that
she passed the Needles at 3 o'clock this
afternoon. She made the passage from
Sandy Hook lightship to the Needles
in five days, sixteen hours and
thirty minutes, not alone lowering
her own record but beating the best
time ever made to SOUTHAMPTON by
any other vessel by three quarters Of
a day.
She made the actual passage in five
days, sixteen hours, forty-three min
utes, though she is only allowed "a
record of five days, seventeen hours,
eight minutes by maritime experts.
The previous Southampton record
was held by the American line steam
er St. Louis, being six days, ten hours
and fourteen minutes.
