GovERNED LIKE NEW YORK.
Lord Salisbury Asks Londoners If They
Wish to Be.


London, Nov. 16-A great mass meet
ing was held this evening in Albert
hall under the presidency of Earl Cado-
gan, the lord lieutenant Of Ireland, at
which the principal speaker was the
premier, the Marquis Of Salisbury. No
fewer than eight thousand persons were
present and the entire assemly rose at
the entrance of Lord Salisbury cheered
him to the echo and sang Here's to a
Jolly Good Fellow"
Speaking of foreign affairs, Lord
Salisbury denied that the government
had yielded to France in the matter of
Siam, Tunis or Madagascar. Turning
to home affairs, he said the govern
ment of London was question which
must be solved and could only be solv-
ed by giving the other and smaller mu-
nicipal bodies a large part of the duties
performed by the London city council.
He promised that the government
would introduce legislation on the sub
ject at the next session of parliament
The present system, he said, was due
to the modern passion for bigness Of
things and was too unwieldy. He
asked his hearers to look at what had
been done across the ocean. "Do you
want to be governed like New York?
Yet the result there which was watched
with so much interest and which so
many deplored was adopted after an
effort to mend admitted defects in the
municipality by enormously increasing
its area and bringing a. much vaster
population under it's range. The under
taking has failed lamentably because it
could not obtain the assistance and CO.
operation of the only class Of men by
whom municipal institutions can be
thoroughly and satisfactorily govern
ed"

TIGERS sHOIV UP POORLY.
Several Players Sent to Side Lines for Poo
Playing.


Playing.
Princeton, N. j., Nov. 16.-Football
practice this afternoon was watched by
the largest number of spectators that
has turned out this season to see the
Tigers play. Undergraduates and
townspeople alike are becoming fanat-
les on the subject of football and the
coming championship contest with Yale
is the absorbing topic Of conversation.
Even Mr.. Cleveland takes an occasional
afternoon off and endures the discom-
forts of damp weather to observe the
Tigers practice.
The work to-day, however, as much
Of it as the public was allowed to see
was a disappointment. Two twenty
minutes halves were played and the
final one was secret. In the first the
regulars scored only twice and this by
the hardest kind of work. Somehow
the men could not get together and
work in unison and as a result the
playing was ineffective and uninterest-
ing. Captain Cochran sent several of
the men to the side lines for poor work,
but changes in the personnel of the
team only made matters worse and in
the second half the old men We're
brought back and given another
chance. Three touchdowns were made
in the last half and the playing was
about the best that the Tigers are capa-

BUTCHER sHoPS MUST CLOSE.
On Sunday Mornings None VIII be AL
lowed to Keep Open,

Those butchers who during the sum-
mer and fall have kept their places of
business open portion of the day on
Sunday will be notified by the police
officers on their beats or by letter from
the city attorney to close their places
Of business next Sunday and to keep
them closed. During the hot weather
of the summer, as is usually the GUS
tom, the butchers keep their shops open
on Sunday morning for a while as Gus
toners preferred to get meat then
rather than to get it Saturday night,
many having no ice chests in which
to keep the meat over night Others
purchased their meat Saturday night
and kept it in the butchers ice boxes
until Sunday morning, when it was de-
livered. The new order will stop this
delivering, as well as keeping open shop
Sunday morning. All those butchers
who do not comply with the instruc-
tons will be prosecuted. 1t is thought
by City Attorney Brown that now since
colder weather has arrived there is no
excuse for people not buying meat over
night.

UNITARIAN URCH BURNED.
The Fire Thought to Have Been of Incen.
diary Origin.

Winchester, Mass, Nov. 16.-The
First Unitarian church on Main street
was totally burned this evening with
a heavy loss. The fire is thought to
have been of incendiary origin. The
flames worked rapidly through the edi-
flee and in a short time were shooting
up the ninety foot steeple illuminating
the entire town. Within an hour after
the fire was discovered the steeple had
fallen through the burning rafters and
the walls fell in a few minutes after
ward. The church was built about
thirty years ago at cost of $4,000.
The interior furnishings and the organ
cost $4,000. On the church there is
$4,000 insurance, and on the organ $2,-
900. Rev. Arthur w. Littltefeld is the
pastor of the church.

Spill At THE HORSE SHOW.
Kennett Falls With Her Rider at the Six.
Foot Bar,


: New York, Nov. 16.-Notwithstanding
the fact that the sky looked threatening
this morning, the weather to-day was
all that could be desired by the mana
gers Of the horse show and the crowds
That f1ocked to Madison Square Garden.
To-night's heavy rainfall caused many
of the fashionable patrons to remain at
home. and the crowd was smaller than
that of last night One of the earliest
classes to be judged were the pigmy
Shetland ponies, and they were put
through their PAGES before their crowd
of admirers arrived. Some of the tiny
brood mares were accompanied by foals
and for the moment the ring looked like
a playground for horses. The ribbon
was secured by Mr.. T. L. Watts KEEL
pie.
The first serious spill of the week oc-
CURED when young Eugene Reynal on
his fathers (E. S. ReynaD chestnut
mare Kennett came to grief at the high
lump. The boy rider made several at
tempts to put his horse over the six
foot bar, meeting with refusal every
time. When the mare did take the
lump it took it clumsily and fell heav-
;,v on his right side. Young Reynal
was stunned for a time, but after a rest
of ten minutes he pluckily remounted
and after several more attempts sue
ceeded in putting the ill-tempered ami
NAL over the high obstacle. At each
effort. however, it failed to entirely
clear it.

sion was a full one for the beginning

French Parties for Whom He Acted ms
Trustee and Attorney In This Country
Belonged to the Most Exclusive Society
Circles in Boston.
Boston, Nov. 16.-Joseph A. Iasigi.
former Turkish consul in this city, was
sentenced by Judge Sheldon in the SUI
erior criminal court this afternoon, to
state prison for period not exceed
ing eighteen nor less than fourteen
years. Iasigi, who belonged to the most
exclusive society circles in the city, and
a member Of the best clubs, was con-
victed ten days ago Of the embezzle-
ment of large sums from French par
ties, for whom he acted as trustee and
attorney in this country. His arrest in
February last while in New York and
the earnest but fruitless attempts to
his counsel to obtain his release, are
matters of history and caused a great
sensation.
Exceptions were taken Immediately
after the trial and an appeal. Pending
the decision Of the superior court his
bail was fixed at $4,000 and he was
locked up in Charles street Jail until
this afternoon. About o'clock he was
brought before Judge Sheldon, who,
with a jury, heard the trial, and the
district attorney moved for sentence.
To this motion Iasigi's counsel, H w.
Chaplin, states to the court that the
exceptions taken at the trial had been
waved and that no evidence as is usu-
ally the case, as to the personal char
acter previous record and social stand
ing would be offered
Judge Sheldon said that he had
thought the matter over carefully and
could not see any circumstances which
would palliate the offence, but on the
contrary, the defendants station in life,
his position and manner of living
seemed to aggravate it. In view of the
number of offences for which the de-
fendant had been convicted, it seemed
to the court necessary that a substan-
tial sentence should be inflicted
Clerk Manning then read the SEN
tence of the court which was that Iasigi
should 'be confined in state prison at
Charlestown for a period not less than
fourteen nor more than eighteen years,
and that the first day should be spent
in solitary confinement. Immediately
after the sentence the prisoner was al
lowed few moments conversation
with his wife and sister-in-law. and
was then taken to Charlestown.
