It has been the custom for
the model frauds about the City Hall to dis
play their ill-breeding and ill-manners at
the Municipal Court. The conduct of sonn
ot the "models" is more befitting that ol
the inhabitants of Patagonia. This morniut*
fids evil custom readied a crisis. Moore,
of the "model«," had two men arrested
for vagrancy. The same
about a week ago and Judge Cummins dis
mi se«l the charge of vagrancy aud fined
them $1 and cost« for disorderly conduct;
and Chief Hawkins made return that they
had served out the sentence. This

that they had been. Moore, ever ready, re

THE TRENTON EASILY DEFEAT
THE QUICKSTEP.
GAMES IN OTHER CITIES.
The Quickstep Defeated for tlie Fifth Suc
cessive T me by the Trenton
eating Column of Base Ball Newa.
An later
The Quickstep, yesterday, for the fifth
time fell a victim to the up Jersey club.
The home team seemed to bave no life about
them and played the game throughout in a
haug-dog fashion. Something is radically
wrong with the club, and until it is set
straight victories will be the exception. '1 he
club contains as good material as there is in
the Inter State, and there is no excuse for
the baby games that are frequently played.
If this thing is kept up it Is safe to say
liiere will he
the end of the seasou. Wilmington
is a base ball town and will support a club
that ßhows any disposition to play good ball
but "monkey work" will not be tolerated.
The game yesterday was dull and uninter
esting with no especial features to mark ft.
The visitors both outbatted and out
tlelded the home «team, they being
credited wttk but one fielding error,
Harkins' three errors being for bases ou
liai Is. Py e was overworked aud his pitch
ing was not as effective as usual, as will be
seen by the score. Kienzel, late of the Mer
ritt«, signed with the club yesterday aud
made his appearance in centre field and
caught three tiice flies. 8mllcy knocked his
Huger out in the sixth lnulug and was com
pelled to retire, Campana of Brooklyn tak
ing his place. The score follows;

A FATAL STEP.
A Young Lad Drowned In the Hrandjwlne
Yesterday Afternoon.
About 4.80 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
James O'Donnell, a young lad aged about
12 years, suddeuly met his death by drown
lng the Brandywine. The deceased had
down to the gate of the Jackson & Sharp
Company's works for the purpose of obtain
ing a drink of water. After obtain!• g it,
he ran down to the railroad bridge, and as
sisted the flagman, William H. Collision, to
pull down a signal.* He was warned by Mr.
Collision to be careful < r bp might fall over
board. Hardly had the warning been
uttered, when the unfortunate lad stepped
backward and
below.
to swim, procured a pole as quickly us pos
sible, and endeavored to reach it to the lad
but It was too short.
In a few moments after he fell he sank to
rise no more alive. The alarm was quickly
spread, and la response to the cry that a boy
had bfeeu drowned at the railroad bridge,
8herman Biddle, who was sitting at Seventh
and Benuett streets, hastened to the
scene, and after partially disioblng,
leaped overboard, and after a short
search succeeded in finding the body
and with assistance got It on the bridge.
The remains were fchcu taken to 708 Curlett
street, where the boy's parents reside. The
boy was the oldest of four children, who
came with their rao her from Ireland about
two months ago. The father works for the
Pusey «te Jones Company.

TUE WATER ASSESSMENT.
Suspicions of Political Work Being Done
at tlie Publie Expense.
When the Water Department pay roll was
presented at the meeting of City Council
last evening, Mr. Taylor called for the read
ing of the names thereon. The «. lerk pro
ceeded to read them, but when the names of
Cornelius Fipps aud Thomas M. Culbert,
who are
assessment,
passed, Mr. Taylor withdrew his request. He
subsequently asked Mr. Steveçson,
chairman of the Water Committee, what the
duties of these extra assessors were.
Mr. Stevenson said they were employed to
make a new aud comp'ete water assess
ment.
Mr. Taylor—Are they not taking a census
of the male inhabitant of the city, and their
political views.
Mr. Farrell—They are discovering leaks,
perhaps.
Mr. Stevenson—They are looking for peo
ple who do not pay for the water they use,
and they are finding a great many.
Subsequently Mr. Farrell called attention
to the great quantity of water wæted in
this city, and ou his motion the assessors
were instructed to report to the "proper
party,'' ail waste and leakage that came to
their attention. Mr. Farrell thought the
"proper person'' would be "the person
called Chief Engineer of the Water Depart
ment."
The reason Mr.Taylor started this inquiry
into the duties of these extra aesi^sors is
that there is a well credited rumor that they
are combining with their work a careful
political canvass for the benefit of the Re
publican paity of the city.

Rapid Company 166 operators
Amt rit
wert* on duty to day, including the 116
that went out on tin* day of the strike; 98
out of-town office* were opened and 400
operators in all l ad returned to the employ
of the company. Tiie 88 branch offices in
this city were ai»o rerpmed and a large
amount of business is reported to have been
handhd.
It was stated this morning at the offices
of the Baltimore and Ohio Company that it
was tne intention of the company to remain
firm.
The Western Union Company still re
mains firm, however, in the position it has
assumed since the beginning of the strike
and shows no indication of weakening. The
large force of operators on duty yesterday
returned to day and the reports of the man
agers of t.he operating room showed that the
business was being bandied promptly. En
couaging reports were received from the
general superintendents at Chicago and
Nashville. Press Agent Somerville said that
the action ot the American Rapid would
Lave no effect upon the policy of the West
ern Union.
The Postal Telegraph Company has put
in two Chicago wires, which have been
quadruplexed, aud this will be equivalent
to eight wires. No operators of the West
Union Company arc at the Cotton Ex
change and the messages have to be sent to
the main office for transmission. At the
Stock Exchange there were nine Western
Union operators. The Mutual Union and
Baltimore A Ohio offices were closed, but
the Merchants' and Bankers' was doing a
large basit ess, apparently.
The usual routine was carried out this
afternoon at the meeting of the striking tele
graphers in Clarendon Hall. Chairman
Mitchell announced that he w mid be absent
for the reinaiuder of the day on business
connected with the Brotherhood and that he
would probably have some important intelli
gence to communicate when he came back.
It was understood that he referred to a pend
ing nevotation with the Baltimore and Ohio
Telegraph Company looking toward a com
promise with the Brotherhood. Dispatches
were read from Boston, Philadelphia, Balti
more, Cleveland, Detroit, Oil City, Pitts
burg, St, Louis and other points, giving en
couraging reports and urging the strikers to
remain firm. Numerous offers of pecuniary
assistance were reported to have been made
by labor organizations and by business
who were in sympathy with the operators.
Many accessions to the ranks of the strikers
were also reported by the various assemblies
in different parts ot the country.

deny that there is any truth lu the charge
that they have mutilated the business pass

tact that they were urged up to the moment
of their dismissal to withdraw from the

wholly groundless.

Forty nine linemen and inspectors of the
