1t was most perfect evening for
the postponed New Years eve dance
at Independence park last night. The
rains had cooled the air, which togeth-
er with a breeze made it just right
for dancing.
The hall was most tastefully dec
Grated. There was a promiscuous use
of flags at the ends and along the
sides. Palm leaves and cocoanut
branches were used to conceal from
view the pillars in the big pavilion.
There were potted plants placed here
and there and ferns were everywhere
conspicuous. The ladies having the
decorating in charge were Mrs. l.. de
L. Ward, Miss Clara Low, Miss Helen
Parker, Miss Mary Low and Miss Kula-
manu- Ward.
There were over 200 people at the
hop. The Quintette Club of the Royal
Hawaiian Band was in fine spirits and
the dancers were favored at divers
times during the evening with extras.
The club also rendered some songs
and choruses. Mr.. l.. de L. Ward Of
ficiated as floor manager and everyone
voted him a good one.
The merry throng was still at it at
o'clock this morning. just before
midnight refreshments were passed
around the hall. Two prodigious
bowls of lemonade and punch We're
also accessible during the dance.
Mrs. E. d. Tenney, Mrs. H. G. Moo

evening. The other committees were:

from 1.-THE Cycling

"The popularity of the Cleveland bicycle
is ever on the increase and every day
sees some crack racing man dispose of
his old mount in order to become mount
ed upon the speedy Cleveland. More
races have been won upon Clevelands in
recent meets than upon all the other
makes put together. Among the Cleve-
land riders who have ridden their
popular mount to victory are the follow
ing: Champion Terrill, Chas Wells,
Harry Terrill, Whitman, Mott, Crafts,

DNLUCKY TUGBOAT.
Sinks For the Second Time in
a Month-The Crew Have /
a Narrow Escape.

The tugboat Daylight, owned by W. B.
Kerkham & Co.. of New York, sank at
four o'clock this morning, while moored
at the Bremen Line Steamship dock, foot
of Third street, Hoboken. Three of this
crew, including John Andrews, the cook.
and two deckhands, whose names could
not be ascertained, were sleeping on
board at the time, and narrowly escaped
a watery grave. The Daylight tied up at
the dock on Monday night. Captain Wins
low and all except three of the crew
went ashore. About four o'clock the men,
who were sleeping in the deckhouse, were
awakened by the lurching of the boat and
discovered that water was rushing into
the hold over the deck. Andrews jumped
out of his berth in his night shirt and ran
Between the boat and the dock was the
tugboat Miller. Andrews jumped on the
Miller and then shouted to the other men
in the cabin. They awoke and had bare
ly time to scramble off the sinking tug
before it went down.
Andrews and the two deckhands re-.
ported the accident to the police, but
could give no reason for the nishap. They
said that all hands had escaped in safe
ty. This morning, however, a rumor was
circulated on the dock to the effect that
one man had been drowned but no ona
could be found to substantiate the rumor.
A captain of a. canalboat lying near the
pier said that he was awakened about
four o'clock by hearing some men Shout
but he did not go out on deck to inyes-
tigate.
The men who were on the tug left tho
dock this morning and could not be
found.
The Chapman Wrecking Company has
sank about month ago while lying at
a pier in New York.

ME-. ROOS SERENADHD.
The Mayor-Eleet Kidnapped by
His Friends and Forced
to Make a Speech.

The lower section of the city was in a
blaze of glory last night Residents were
startled by the frequent explosions of
heavy bombs, but their fright was turned
to joy when it became known that vot-
ers, irrespective of party, had joined with
the Third Ward Democratic Association
in rendering Mayor-elect Edward Hoos
a reception. At half past seven O'Clock
all the members of the club and about
five hundred men not connected with any
political association, headed by brass
band, marched to the home of the May
or-elect at Jersey avenue and Third
streets.
Mr.. Hoos was at home dining when the
serenaders arrived. He at first imagined
Republican o1ficeholders, who have feast
ed at the public crib for years, were
there to lombard him. He quickly learn
ed, however, that it was a friendly dem
onstration.
His appearance on the front stoop
was greeted with cheers, which were
heard half mile away.
The band played Hail to the Chief
Mr. Hoes bowed and at the request of a
committee, donned his hat and coat, and
at the head of the jolly masqueraders
marched to the clubrooms of the Third
Ward Club.
There he was greeted by Street and
Water Commissioners-el Anthony
Hauck and James NolarE Assistant Pros
ecutor Joseph M. Noonan, ex-Assembly-
man John Wahl Queen, John Marion, AL
derman- elect Howeth, and many. other
politicians who were swept into office q
few days ago. Congratulations were
extended all round, and then Alderman
Archibald Henry, who had charge of the
arrangements, introduced the Mayor
elect.
Mr. Hoos made a brief speech, but what
he said delighted his hearers. He sai6
gets it, in the interest Of taxpayers. He
added
There will be no extravagance
no wilIful waste of money if
can prevent It, This is
not victory of Democrats alone
but victory of the whole people, who
have shown their confidence in the Dem
ocratic party and its candidates. Demo-
Gratis have not been In office for five
years and of course to the victors belong
the sDoils. I will endeavor to keep that
motto before me and see to it that our
faithful workers are rewarded. Party,
however, will be secondary considera-

interests of taxpayers

VERSION VIA ATHENS.
[By Gable to The Associated Press


ATHENS, April 20, 1S97.-There was re-
newed fighting between the Turks and
Greeks in the Milouna Pass yesterday
but full details are not obtainable here.
The firing ceased at five O'Clock yes
terday evening The total Greek loss in
the various engagements in the Milouna
Pass is estimated at 1000 killed and
wounded.
Over 200 wounded soldiers and officers
of the Greek army have arrived at La
rissa, Tyrnavo and Volo.
The losses of the Turks are declared to
be much greater than those of the
Greeks.
Prince Constantine has returned to
Larissa from Gritzoval, where he wit
messed some severe fighting. The Greek
reverse at that place was due to the fact
that General Mastropas, who is in COM
mand of the Greek artillery, misunder-
stood Prince Constantine's orders and
ordered a retreat of the Greek troops.
The Turks thereupon advanced and soon
occupied Gritzovali, pursuing the retreat
ing Greeks, killing few and wounding
200 of them.
General Mastropas brigade, later, rail-
lied and made a stand. In the meantime
Prince Constantine hurried reinforce
ments forward to the assistance of Gem
eral Mastropas and General Smolenitz,
formerly Greek Minister for War, sue
ceeded in forcing the enemy back.
Prince Constantine has severely CEN
sured General MastroDas for his blunder
Fighting between the Greeks and Turks
was resumed this morning at Reveni, not
far from Tyrnavo, northwest of Larissa.
A big battle is in progress. The Turks
are attacking in still greater force than
yesterday, but the Greeks are making a
stubborn resistance.
The bombardment of Prevesa, the
Turkish position at the entrance of the
Gulf of Arta, was resumed at nine
O. clock this morning by the Greek forces
on land and sea. 1t is believed the town
will be reduced during the course of the
day.
A Greek squadron left the Piraeus at
midnight under sealed orders.
Several merchantmen have been hastily
armed and detachments of Greek troops
have been hurried on board of them.
1t is reported here this morning that a
Greek force which was trying to bridge
the river Arachphos, on the frontier Of
Epirus has been driven off by the Turks.
1t is further stated that the Turks have
advanced upon Arta and have been bonn
harding that place since five o'clock yes
terday evening. &

The MAYOR WILL. SIGN

The resolution of the Board of Finance
concurring in the new water contract
reached Mayor Wanser's office this after
noon at two o'clock. Before he would
sign it the Mayor insisted upon going
over the proposition and terms cf the
agreement with Corporation Counsel
Blair, in order to make sure that in every
particular the city is as well protected
as can be expected under existing cir
cumstances.
The contract will be signed this after
noon beyond all question, as His Honor
took an active part in the preparation
of the proposition, and the new contract
will be operative tomorrow The con-
sumers will doubtless be able, to detect
it when Passaic water is injected into the
mains.
The only regret Mayor Wanser is said
to have about entering into the new
agreement is that it may result in the
city forever being shut out from obtain
ing the unquestionably pure and whole
some waters of the Rockaway shed.

years to induce the city to take Passaic

EXCHANGES EXCITED.

By Gable to The Associated Press
LONDON, April 20, 1S97.-The Stock Ex-
change, this morning, opened with great
excitement. The members of the Ex-
change arrived an hour earlier than
usual. Though all the securities were
marked down heavily there was no actu-
al panic Foreign securities were less af-
fccted than expected, and though ali
opened with a substantial reduction, buy
ers soon appeared and the declines were
mostly confined to narrow limits Greek
and Turkish securities were the chief
sufferers.
Greek securities fell from to 31a points
and Turkish securities were down from
u to IA points.
American securities were very fat, in
syrGaathy with the New York market,
though their quotations were still con-
siderably above parity

A member of the firm of J. S. Morgan
& Company the American bankers here,
informed representative of The Asso-
ciated Press today that there was no dis
position on the London Stock Exchange
to sell undue quantities of any securities,
and that there were no signs OF a panic.
The foreign bourses closed steady and
with a good undertone. The pressure to
sell was speedily checked. The latest
prices show a recovery, especially in
Americans. It was remarked there was
scarcely any sales being effected by hold
ers of American securities here, the de-
preston in values emanating entirely
from New York. A leading firm of brok-
ers was ordered from New York to pick
up quietly any lines of stocks offered be-

point is as pure and free from contamin-
alton as is the Pequannoek
The city officials declare that their
only reason for making a contract at
saddllng difficult water problem ON men
not familiar with the situation.
IL the incoming officials desire at any
time to break the new contract, which
is slated to run until 1900, they may do
so by serving three months notice on the
company, the notice, however, to bear
date from the beginning of a quarter.
The next quarter begins July |. There
is not the smallest obstacle, the officials
say, in the way of the incoming officials
setting aside the contract if they think
people prefer to return to the Passaic as
pumped from Belleville, in June next, to
having two-thirds Pequannock and one
third Passaic gathered at point where
there is no pollution.
After 1900 the company will not be
able to give this city drop Of Pequan-
mock, which means, some of the officials
say, return to the filthy Passaic at that
late day unless a permanent supply has
been contracted for or procured in some
way.
The new contract is in every particular
much more advantageous to the city than
was the original temporary supply COM
pact.
The claim of Commissioners Boltwood
and Heintze that the making of tenn
porary contract is Illegal is secuted by
the officials, who cite the fact that when
and an effort was made to set it aside,
justices Lippincott and Garrison decided
that occasion existed for the acquisition
of 2 new supply of pure and wholesome
water, and that inasmuch as the East
Jersey Company was the only one quail
fed to give the relief required the Off
cials were quite right and acted within
the letter of the law in making a con-
tract The officials contend that that de-
cision holds perfectly good now, as SINH
lar circumstances exist The new con-
tract will result, it is said, in the saving
of considerable money to the city.
