SUNDAY CLUB
RaIded on North Nah Street
 Yesterday By Police.

A prominent citizen of North square yesterday was taking stock Of the interior of the new Sunday club which Morris Blsnovitch started at ETA North Main street when Sergeant Bergin with Detectives Keegan and Officer Claffey dropped in also. It is said there was quiet game" going on in one corner of the room but oth- erwise there was very litle doing. What the cops meant by "a game was poker or some other form of en- tertainment forbidden by law.
 The sergeant-at-arms was on duty for the time being and one of the prominent citizens of the square was acting in his place and there has been more fun with this man since than he actually appreciates. For some hours last evening he thought that every policeman he saw had writ in his pocket for him.
 The police arrested Bisnovitch and seized two kegs of beer. a few cases of beer and a quantity of liquors, Bisnovitch was detained at the police station only few minutes when he was released on ball of $200. In court to-day the case was adjourned to Thursday at the request of the liquor prosecuting agent, who stated he was not ready to proceed. It is supposed that by Thursday Bisno- witch will have settled the case. He claims to have obtained club char ter from the secretary of state.

THROWN FROM CARRIAGE.
Dr Ryder and Wife's Vehicle Collided
 With Another Team.

While out driving Saturday eyen- ing Dr F. L. Ryder and wife were thrown from their carriage near the corner of Mill and East Main streets. Their carriage collided with vehi- cle that was standing near the Spen- cer x Pierpont store. Although the doctor and his wife were thrown for- cibly to the ground neither of them was injured to any extent, although they were considerably bruised. The Ryders were driving up Mill street, Mrs Ryder handling the ribbons. A horse and wagon was stretched across the street near the side door to the store. The horse evidently backed out just as the Ryder turnout was passing and the accident occurred.
 The rear part of the doctors car- riage was smashed from the front end. Mrs Ryder gave remarkable exhibi- tion of pluck by hanging on to the reins until some bystanders were able to grab the horse. She landed on her side when she was hurled from the carriage but she did not let go the ribbons
 Mrs Ryder was taken into the home of James ,Lahey nearby but af- ter short time was able to go home.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Michael Brennan, clerk in Smiths drug store, will return this week to resume his studies at the Albany School of Pharmacy.
 The Cadets fulfilled their boast yesterday by defeating the Stanley Parks at Reidville. They have claimed for some time they could take the measure of the winners of the Junior league championship and they did the trick neatly. The Parks have been winning steadily from all who opposed them and the defeat yesterday is the first they have suf- fered for some time.
 Hans Rasmussen, candidate for representative on the republican ticket, backed by the Good Roads association and the Milkmen's com bine, is causing little comment on Town Plot. If Hans should receive the nomination he would undoubted- ly make easy picking for the demo- crats. Since Hans played prom inent part In the drama furnished by the milkmen in Watertown last week, 1t Is likely that all the milk consumers in the city would like to take a hand in piling up big ma- jorlty for Hans's opponent. The women will persuade their husbands to knife the man who was instru- mental in forming an association, the object of which Is to boost the price of milk. Moreover there seems to be some doubt as to wheth- CT Rasmussen is republican. Dur ing the past two municipal cam paigns he advocated the election of Mayor Thoms.

BROOKLYN A. 0. TEAM.

About 13 candidates of the Brook lyn Athletic club football team were out for practice yesterday. The men only caught punts and did a little running as the weather was much too warm 10 do anything else. Some of the men who have already appeared for practice and who will be on the eleven are Matt Byrnes, the old high school tackle, who later played in the backfield on the All- Waterbury team; Bill Ghent, who was the quarterback of the Merri- macs; John Shields, considered by many as the best halfback in the city, who in following interference and breaking up plays is a star man; Tommie Kenny, another former member of the Merrimacs; Higgins, who played for a time on the All- Waterbury team at end; Dan Ma haney, brother of Bill Mahaney, who was on the high school team for a time; Madden, who for several years was with the Cadets; Brandt, who has played the past two seasons with All-Waterbury (Brooklyn claims emphatically that he will be. in their >line-up); Captain John Hayes and Dan Coss, ex-full back on the Cadet Juniors. Manager Dunphy says that if Tom Dodds does any playing this season 1t will be with the Brook lyns. There is little doubt, the packers claim, that the B. A. c. team will be a good one and will make all other elevens hustle for the championship of the state.

MRS SMITH APPOINTED.
Will Be Conservator Over Mrs Sibella
 Hitchcock of Bunker Hill.

Four lawyers, Lynch, Guilfoile, Cole and Wood, arrived at the pro- bate court this forenoon expecting to meet in battle array They were all primed some to fight for and others against the appointment of con- servator over Mrs Sibella Hitchcock of Bunker Hill road. A petition filed by relatives of Mrs Hitchcock said she was in danger of squandering her property which amounts to about s15,000 mostly realty, on account of her habits. A few days ago she en- gagged one attorney. Then she chang ed to another and still another and the relatives of course who wished to have the conservator appointed were represented also. It transpired, however. that opposition to the ap- pointment was withdrawn at the last minute and Mrs Hitchcock agreed to have Mrs Susan Smith appointed un- der a bond of s3,000
 Mrs Smith said she has in cash in bank about s1,200, and it was after ward stated that few days ago she had about $1.500. She also has a number of diamonds. She seemed to be very pleasant about the matter The first thing the conservator will do will be to clear off a few mort gages.

"sPooN SHOP" SPRING.
Patronized by People Yesterday Who
 Wanted Drinking Water.

The wells and springs in all parts of the city were rather popular spots yesterday because of the condition of the local reservoirs. The city water seems to be bad at present al- though in some parts of the town 1t was not very distasteful yester- day. In the northwestern section of the city the water, so the residents claim, was much the same as it has been for the past month.
 The spring on Silver street known as the spoon shop spring, was pat ronized from early morning until late at night. The water from this spring is as good as can be found in the city consequently there has been big rush for the liquid the past couple of days. All yesterday afternoon there was line of auto mobiles near the spring, the owners having large jugs and bottles which they filled. There was number of people who drove out in carriages and took in goodly supply while the pitcher and pail brigade com- posed of nearby residents was going for hours.
 The cool spring which is up the lots near Oak street in that section known as the ball alley" was also visited by hundreds of people dur ing the day.

FELL INTO POND.
Fisherman's Catch Was Too Heavy
 to Land Yesterday.

Timothy Lynch Of Pemberton street while fishing iii Hitchcock's pond yesterday took an accidental dive in the water. He explains this by saying that he was just fishing, not laying the foundation for any fish stories, but just fishing. Sud- denly the calmness of the water was disturbed in the neighborhood of the float on his line and what fol- lowed Lynch is not exactly clear about for the next he knew he was laundering about in tile water. He believes he had caught the biggest fish that was ever in Hitchcock s pond and he would nave landed 1t had not the ns., puNed him out of the boat. He was only a short time in the water and he not only re- grets the loss of the fish but the line also.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE
Future Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO, Oct 12-wheat prices were ad-
vanced early in the session despite lower Liver
pool cables and more optimistic news regarding
the Balkan affair. Leading bulls were active
buyers and had things their own way for time
as offerings in the pit after the first few min
utes were light as TO interpose little resist
ance to the advancing tendency. Continued dry
weather in the southwest, the result of which
the new crop is said to be making a poor
will be much reduced because of delayed seed
ing. was the factor upon which the bulls re-
higher prices. Buying was chiefly in the July
delivery, the price of which advanced precisely
&c from the low point Of the day. During the
last part Of the day there a great deal
of realizing in evidence, as a result of which
prices slumPed P sharply & December declining from
chiefly by increase of 1871 900 bushels in the
available stocks of wheat in the United States
and Canada, which caused the attention Of
traders to revert to the big northwestern move
ment of the crop.
Rumors of rain in the southwest also caused
that the milling demand for wheat continued
good, with -four sales large, but that export
demand was Indifferent, The export demand in
general was slack. although II boatloads were
reported worked" at New York, which report
however, was not confirmed. The market closed
low point.
Corn developed moderate frmness in the day
result of the advance in wheat, but sub
sequently weakened selling by small holders
The close easy at declines of 5s@&c
Oats were steady the early part of the day
but eaSeu on ldte ID lne session owing to the
weakness of other grains. At the close prices
were unchanged to 5s@Ac lower.
Selling of provisions was general and prices
slumped sharply. October pork, which had a
sensational rise at the close on Saturday was
offered down to $14, or decline Of 81 15o per
barrel The extreme fluctuations in this deiiy
cry caused talk to the effect that the board
of directors would be asked to make an in
vestigation. A 10615c decline in the price Of
live hogs was largely responsible for the weak
ness in general At the close prices were un-
changed to s1.25 lower.
