HAD POLICE ESCORT.
Two Young Men Taken to Their Home for
Fear of Attack.

Officer Long reported to police head
quarters this morning that he had re-
ceived word from Officer Lynch, of
the Staten Island police, that the latter
officer had spoiled a fight on that side
of the sound by escorting two young
men to the ferry boat Warren and
started them to this city. Officer
Lynch told Long to look out for them
and give them protection as the gang
which went over on the Sea Breeze
boat would be waiting for them on
this side. The crowd waited for the
young men who, Officer Long saws,
were perfectly sober and his timely
interference prevented a renewal of
hostilities. Officer Long had to escort
the young men to their homes on

McPHILLIPS WAS GREAT
Allowed the Visitors but Three Hits and
Held them at His Mercy at All Times
-MariOns Will Play Two Games
Next Saturday Both With
EquitabIes.

The Marions had an easy time of it
Saturday winning as they pleased
from the Star A. @ by score of to
1. The visitors fielded badly at times
and this fact coupled with their in
ability to hit, aided the locals in Sc
curing the victory. Gilroy was touch
ed up rather lively, but many of the
hits credited to the Marions were
flukes and with fair support Gilroy
would have kept the score much
closer.
McPhillips pitched his first game
for the Marions and gave genuine sat
isfaction He allowed the Stars only
three hits and had them at his mercy
throughout the game. He fielded his
position magnificently, accepting the
unusual number of nine chances in
perfect fashion. He got a stinging
line drive and a high foul in
clever style McPhilIips also handled
the stick well, rapping two singles
and scoring two runs.
The Marions' new player at third,
Cohalan, had little work to do in the
field, but he handled himself we'll.
The Stars got their only run in the
sixth as the result of two singles and
stolen base.
The Marions two runs in the first
inning on Kiernan's triple, singles by
Cohalan and Calvin and an error by
Hook. Two more runs came in the
fourth on McGuire's error and singles
by McPhillips, Moorehead and Kier-
nan. In the seventh, singles by Gal
vim and Hoffner and bad throw by
Kennedy yielded another run. The
final tallies came in the eighth when
hits by McPhillips and Cohalan and
an error by Harnish netted two runs.
Next Saturday the MariUns will
play two games at home, in the morn
ing and in the afternoon. The Equit-
ables will be the Marions' opponents
in both contests.

WANT THE FERRY AT
WASHINGTON STREET.
Petition heinq Drawn up for Property Owners That Vicinity to
Siqn but will Wait if they get the PaVement--C Clam
WashinqtOn Street IS Centre of the city

AS told in the News last week, a
spirited movement is on foot in regard
to the change in location of the ferry
slip of tha Staten Island Rapid Transit
on this side of the sound. In the de-
sire that it should be changed, but
not to Fayette street, as is favored by
the officials of the road. the property
owners on Washington street are
speaking of the foot of their street as
the new site.
When seen by News reporter this
morning Jacob Goldberger said that
he was starting such a movement, and
had begun to draw up petition in
favor of the selection of Washington
street by the railroad company. No
thing will be done towards circulating
this petition, however, until the pro-
perty owners hear definitely as to
whether or not they are to secure the
brick pavement which is desired. Ii
they are successful in regard to the
pavement, the petition will be immed-
lately presented to the owners for
their signatures. They are desirous
of having the boat land at the foot OF
their street because of the increase in
property valuation that would be occa-
stoned and in addition they argue that
the trip across from Tottenville to
Washington street would be still
shorter than to Fayette. Much inter-
est, therefore, attaches to the outcome
of the movement for q vitrited brick
pavement
1t is also argued in favor of Wash
ington street that by landing there
the ferry will be more nearly in the
center of the city as that thoroughfare
leads out to all sections by direct
route.

PROGRESS ON
NEW CHURCH.
Ready to Start Mason Work as
Soon as Weather Permits To
Raise Money.
STATEMENT YESTERDAY.

AS soon as the weather will permit
the mason work on st. Mary's church
will commence. The pastor, Rev. B.
7. O'Connell. is greatly pleased with
the way things are now progressing.
At all the masses yesterday he spoke
at length on the new building. He
said the time for the payment of the
last installment promised is now
drawing near. This was promised by
the first of July and as there yet re-
mains SO, 900 to be collected the pastor
urged the people of the parish to bear
this in mind and next Sunday Try to
have it all in.
The amount promised in all to start
the church was $4,000. Thus far
$12, 900 has been collected, and if the
other So, 600 comes in by July the
first payment will doubtless be made.
Graham & McKeon. who have the
contract for digging the cellar, have
completed their work as far as they
can go until the masons make little
headway. COLLECTIONS will be taken
up at different intervals until the
$50, 600 is all in. Fairs will most
likely be held also in the very near
future to help the fund along.

almost before the Protection Hook q
Ladder Company reached the house.
Since the fire, however, many per-
sons have taken the trouble to criti-
else the action or rather inaction ON
the part of the Lincoln Hose Com
pany. A News reporter learned from
Fire Chief Comings that the Lincoln
Hose Company have orders to wait
for horses before going to a fire in
every case except box 35. Several
members of the company were at the
house ready to go to the fire, but not
even one horse was in the stable and
Mr.. Pfeiffer could not get one any-
where. When asked why the members
did not pull the truck to the fire
Chief Comings said there was no
attachment by which they could pull
it,
The Lincolns are supposed to answer
every alarm. With this fact in view
Chief Comings requested the Board of
Aldermen to give this company team
OF horses in making up their new
schedule, but they said it was cheaper
to hire the horses from the livery
stable close by. Chief Comings says
he called attention to the fact that
horses might be all out some time but
the board is quoted as saying that
was very improbable. The IAembers
of Lincoln Hose feel sc=sS; bee, the
new company to be organizes:A that
part of the city commonly vafssyf
Dublin is to have a horse and
they are not.
Mayor Seaman was asked for his
opinion of the Lincoln's failure 20
respond and he said he had heard of
it, but was not familiar enough with
the circumstances to make any
comment.
