Four of (he Inmates wore taken oat dead, and a numbfr of those who escaped death were badly braised, and one of them seriously so. The house was a three-story structure sdjqjnlng a trJJjP J~ ~f( similar construction on the nortbea*. Cc. rt.' of First and Colgate streets. It was built sixteen years ago, and three year# pgo it was purchased from the original owner by James Anderson, who is employed as a baker in the Hudson county penitentiary, and who lived in the house. Its foundation, consisting of only a few beams, was laid on the earth. Half a block frdm that place the trains of the Pennsylvania lwilroadraHle along a high trestlework, and Jar all the buildings. The occupants of Anderson's building felt the noise mora than the others, but they had become so need to it that when Hugh McGuety, Who, with his wife and fire children, occupied half Of the third story, jumpedout as had and found the building rocking, ha paid no attention to it A moment later he heard a cracking sound, and before he could cry out to alarih his wife and children the walls parted, and the next thing he remembered was being dragged out from under a mas* of timbers, plaster and furniture. Hen and women' were climbing over the mass of broken timbers. When he got ont he went to extricate his wife and children, who lay near him in the wreck. At the time the building fell there were in the street men and women hiwrying to work in the neighboring factories. Those wbi'were in the vicinity say the' only indication of a collapse was a sadden quivering of the framework. The clouds of dost which arose prevented these in the street from knowing at owe the cause of the disaster, bat the cries of those pinned beneath the wrack led them to the rescue. An alarm was rung and the firemen, who were soon Joined by the i olice, worked earnestly to' get out the injured. Among the first who reached the place aftec the building fell Was Mrs. Ahder. son, the wife of the owner. She had gone oat to purchase groceries; and had left her flw children behind her. She ran Cask to find her home in ruins. When one after afc-J cluer qf her children was carried out of the debris dead she became erased, and the police Icetnd it impossible to control her.' Word had been telephoned to Mr. Anderson at the penitentiary on Snake Hill, and he reached the plaoe an horn after the house had fallen. He stumbled ratb«r than jumped ont of the Snake Hill supply wagon, which carried htm down, and was making his way like a blind man through the throng, when Us wife fell upon his neck. His first question was, "Where's my baby!" "Ob, they're dead I They're all dead!" his wife cried. Her husband ran hand in hand with her to where, on th£ sidewalk, lay the bodies of their throe youngest children. They had fast been dug out of the ruins.

Sullivan, the champion slugger, for "Cruel and abusive treatment and grow and confirmed habits of intoxication," has commenced in the supreme court. John L. was on hand, and it may be (aid, without reserve that the idealised hero of the ring never looked better in his life. He has allowed his mnstaohe to grow and also tor hair. He wore a silk-faced Prime Albert coat closely buttoned up' and light trousers with a modest check. He had his overcoat on his arm and carried his new, glassy silk Ule in his hand. The libellant'is a tall and stately brunette of males tic proportions, whose weight is probably 180 pounds. She wore a close-fitting tlack dress and long silk gloves of chrome yellow. A small bonnet of black and yellow was perched on top of her head, • pair of diamond drops glistened in her ears, and over fcsr face she wore a half veil of black which barely shaded her handsome eyea. Though a large Women, Mrs. Sulltvan is very attractive, and not without the element* of beauty. The interest in the oase brought a great QrOwd into the court-room, and every seat on the floor and in the gallery was filled with friends of both parties and a curious pubHiv On croHS-exarninatiun. Mrs. BolllTaQ - lated in detail tbe alleged assault made upafe her at Natick. She said he came 8atardaT morning in a carriage; his brother, Mike said that he was drunk and asleep in the car riage, and he dldn't know what to do with him. M "My brother Mid to would not let hin ftey «rned np «fata between 5 am o'clock at nfchfcj had on a wrapper onlj ran to wtore the l)«by wu; ha struck me the left eye; if he had struck me as hard he strikes some he would have killed me; knocked ma back behind the trunk; noboc picied me up, beoause they were a/raid b would strike me again." Here Mr*. Sullivan became ao exhausted that a chair and a glass of water had to b« hrouiht for her, and (he appeared so weak, having JDeen under a rigid and searching cross examination for over an hour, that Judge Allen suspended her farther testimony until to-morrow morning. To thy question, "Do you know or not If tbo prisoner expressed a desire "to have some ode accompany him on bis trip to Richmond f the prosecution objected, tod the jury was sent out while the question of admitting this part of the evidence. The court ruled that the question was an imprepsr one, and the defense exoepted. Several witnesses were called to testify to the prisoner's good character. long enough to folly develop its policy; bat still its action sd far ii sufficient, I think,'to enable us to form a tolerably oprrect Idea of it* general spirit and purpose. I am satisfied that Mr. Cleveland and the heads of the various departments are doing the very beat they can under the circumstances, wo that they are entitled lo the confidence and support of their political friends throughout the oouutry. The president is a sensible, honesty and patriotio man, whose highest ambition is to disoharge his official duties in strict aoocrdance with the constitution and the laws, and tor the promotion of the public welfare. He ia careful and conscientious about everything ha undertakes, and if he commits any mistake in mating appointments or otherwise, they will, in my opinion, be due to the fact that ha is not atile in every instance to procure correct, information concerning the matters upon which & is compelled to act Ha ♦forks hard, listens patiently to the statements and tin suggestions of others, and then he decides according to his own judgment as to what Is right and proper under all the ciroumstaacee. The amount of work ha performs is remarkable. Ha ia in his office from early in the morning until late in the afternoon, and nearly every evening he is engaged for several hours with soma member of the cabinet H'Tg papers and discussing questions connected with the business of the departments, t mention this merely to show the injustice of the complaints which have been m«de in some quarters on the ground that the administration Is moving too slowly. It is physically impossible for the-president and his cabinet to do more than they are dofng. It must be remenhered, too, that during the last quarter of a century the patronage of the government has been enormously increased, and its operations have been so extended as to bring under its control a great number ot very important subjects with which it previously had no connection. The growth of the postal service alone has created a necessity lor the appointment of many thousands of officers and employes, and the same may be said of the pension bureau, though the increase has not been so great. Then the internal revenue and national banking westerns have bean established during the period mentioned, and the whole volume of paper currency ia the country has been brought under the general supervision and control of the government. People who think that the entire body of officers and employes who hare charge of these vast interests, and who are familiar with them, can be suddenly changed without detriment to the public service, are, in my opinion, very much mistaken; and, therefore, I think the administration has so far acted wisely in respect to this sabjeot. But this does not mean that the party which has received the indorsement uf the people shall not control the government It menus simply, as I understand It, that hasty tod inconsiderate action will De avoided as t%t as possible, and that doe care and caution will be exercised in determining the times ind the places in which changes can he propirly made!" lime, 10:06. The third race was the event of the day, and one of the most exciting contests evtr witnessed hero. It was As professional four-oared shell race between TeemOr and Gandaur crews as follows: Teesoer crew— V. A. Ploisted, bow; G. W. Lee, No. &; Henry Peterson, No. 8, and John Teemer, stroke. Gaudm r crew—Geo. Hosmer, bow. Jake Gaudaur, Ha 2; Henry Parker. No. 3, and James McKay, stroke. First one crew and then the other was In the lead up to thf time it turning the stake. Here the Gaudaur orew were oca lmgth ahead, bat they turned the wrong stake and had to make room for their opponents, in consequenca of which the latter gained two lengths, which Gaudapr's orew were pot able to overcome, although the boats lapped several times ooming home. The Teemer crew wan by a length in 18:43. Time of Gandaur's 'Ihe Gaudaur crew was the favorite until just before the start, when the Teemer crew sMd ahead in the pools. This gavs rise to the usual talk in professional circles of a "sel - out," but the closeness of the contest and the .evident desire of each crew to win indicated that the race Was won on the merits of the victors. ' ' Gary Madison, a cousin of Lillian, wa then placed on the stand, and the defense asked him about certain letters in h|»jnmns sion which be had received from Lillian, and ii he would produce them. Witness refused, ' bat when Vie request was Joined in by the prosecution he consented to produce them. * LUTHERAN CHURCH 8YNOD. The defence said that they had letters to introduce found in Lillian's trunk, and written to her by Gary Madison, and that they desired toy the production of the joint correspondence to show that, notwithstanding the evidence of two witnesses tor the prosecution to the contrary, Lillian had had otiior admirers.

Harbisburg, May 28.—The general synod of the Lntheran chnroh met in thirty-second biennial oonventfon in JSiOn Lutheran church. The synod consists of 195 clerical and lay delegates representing twenty-three district synods, including a membership of 128,101 oomswunicants. A huge body of visiting 4ergymen aro present. The oponing sermon Was preached by the president. Rev. J. G. Morris, D. D., LL D., of Baltimore. The text was from Neh. 4-17: "Every one with cme of his hands wrought in the work, and with tb» other hand held a weapon." The speaker sketched the work of the Lutheran church, the difficulties encountered, and drew lessons from the past. The distinctive character of the Lutheran confession and polity was forcibly presented, and the doctrinal differences separating the genera] Lutheran bodies in this country alluded to. Aftos the sermon the eleotlon resulted In the choice of Rev. M. Rhodes, D. D., of St Louis, as president; Rev. J. S. Detweiier, ot Omaha, secretary; Alexander Gebhardt, Esq., of Dayton, O., treasurer. The bar was packed and many lawyers rere unable to obtain seats there. In the indienoe were manf sporting men. The [rcat pugilist took a soal with his counsel, Wbitoomband Thomas E. Barry. In the absence of Oan. Butler., JV L Washburn, counsel tar the libellant, had associated with him Augustas Rus;. Mr. Sulliran at first appeared nervom, but soon Returned a "don't care" expression, and from the time Us wife entered the witness box he stared straight in front of him, only occasionally gtpndng at her. The libollant, under the examination of Mr. Boss, told her story: "I was marriod to John L. Sullivan May 1, 1888, at Roxbury; his habits wore good before marriage and for six months afterward, when he began to drink badly and boos me intoxicated very frequently; he would be brought home drunk and I had to undress and take care of him many a time; this stato of things continued up to Jtha time I left him; the first time he abused ma was while traveling in tho west; we stopped at a Since in Montana a few boars and he cams ito the dining-room and kicked me and then threw things at me for no cause whatever; at Leadville ho drank hard, and drove mo out of the hotel with a pitcher; I was in my wrapper and slippers; I went because 1 was afraid for niy life; there Was no further personal violence during the trip. "After we returned to Boston he never came home until 8 or 4 (/clock in the morntag; be did not carry a latch-key, and required me to sit up waiting and watching for him; he expected me to do this, even if he didn't come home until the next night; I have frequently sat up all night, night after night, waiting for him. "I went to bed one night, tired out with long waiting; he came home and kicked the door in, and abused me for looking him out; I left him in December, 1884; for a year previous to that ha was drunk Marly all the time, and would come and abuse me frequently; last summer I was in Nattok, R. to see me; he was iXunk, and asleep in a carriage; 1 refuse 1 to let him in; John came back Sunday morntug, and came into my room; I was afraid of him, and ran into Mrs. Adams' part of the house whare my baby was; John came after me and struck me with his fist in the face and knocked iw senseless over the back of a trunk I did nothing in the least to make h!m strike mo; he went to Providence and Boston a*A came back to Natiek very drunk; lie said he was never going to drink any"more; Oct.. 96 be came in sober and was very crosa to me, and struck me with the enl of an umbrella; from that time until Deo: 8, 1894, the date I left him, his conduct toward me was very bad. I had one child, who now 13 months old; the child was lying in the bed at Natlck when he knocked ma down. I experienced a great chail go in my health after marriage, and have been under the doctor's care ever since I loft Mr. Sullivan. I knew Mr. Sullivan abqpt six months before we were marrUd; as near as I know I am 98 years old; I l}v«lin New York previous to my marriage, with Mr. Davis; I never roomed with or livfcd in the house with a woman who was known as Uda Piaroe, and don't know any such woman."

In that we the Republicans will do their utaaoet to pass tham over the veta If they should aot succeed an extra session would be the logical result of the Ooveraor's action.

About 19 a.m. they were still up and enjoying the result of their heavy drinking, when the sight of a double-barreled shotgun put an insane idea to the old man's head.

Naturally, though hardly knowing what was right or wrong.

Jfenn, May 28.— Dr. Promt has bean sent by the government to Marseille* to advise upon measure for preventing a repetition of last year's cholera scourge. There arc some indications that the authorities are waking up to the fact that cleanliness beforehand is what U needed .rather than medicine afterward. There have been some attempts to render Marseilles and Toulon leas filthy, but they hare largely failed because of public indifference among the ddaens. The Spanish £Dvernment's prohibition of further inocution by Dr. Ferran 1s ostensibly due to the fact that some persons who had been subjected. to the treatment died. Dr. Ferran, however, points to the fact that out of 6,000 person* inoculated with the cholera germ the deaths, if any, have bean so few as to escape record. He does not see how the government commission of imyiiry now at work can fail to'report favorably on his system in view of soch results as those. The doctor, , however, cares nothing about the result exoept from a humanitarian point of view, apd ■ays that if the Spanish government will not let him save people from cholera in Spain ha will visit Paris and London and expound the system in public there, hoping to secure its adoption by some government In response to other questions Mr. CarUals said he thought it would be the policy of the Democratic party in the next congrses to make reasonable provision for the reconstruction of the navy and the erection a*d ht* Baseball.

Four of (he Inmates wore taken oat dead, and a numbfr of those who escaped death were badly braised, and one of them seriously so. The house was a three-story structure sdjqjnlng a trJJjP J~ ~f( similar construction on the nortbea*. Cc. rt.' of First and Colgate streets. It was built sixteen years ago, and three year# pgo it was purchased from the original owner by James Anderson, who is employed as a baker in the Hudson county penitentiary, and who lived in the house. Its foundation, consisting of only a few beams, was laid on the earth. Half a block frdm that place the trains of the Pennsylvania lwilroadraHle along a high trestlework, and Jar all the buildings. The occupants of Anderson's building felt the noise mora than the others, but they had become so need to it that when Hugh McGuety, Who, with his wife and fire children, occupied half Of the third story, jumpedout as had and found the building rocking, ha paid no attention to it A moment later he heard a cracking sound, and before he could cry out to alarih his wife and children the walls parted, and the next thing he remembered was being dragged out from under a mas* of timbers, plaster and furniture. Hen and women' were climbing over the mass of broken timbers. When he got ont he went to extricate his wife and children, who lay near him in the wreck. At the time the building fell there were in the street men and women hiwrying to work in the neighboring factories. Those wbi'were in the vicinity say the' only indication of a collapse was a sadden quivering of the framework. The clouds of dost which arose prevented these in the street from knowing at owe the cause of the disaster, bat the cries of those pinned beneath the wrack led them to the rescue. An alarm was rung and the firemen, who were soon Joined by the i olice, worked earnestly to' get out the injured. Among the first who reached the place aftec the building fell Was Mrs. Ahder. son, the wife of the owner. She had gone oat to purchase groceries; and had left her flw children behind her. She ran Cask to find her home in ruins. When one after afc-J cluer qf her children was carried out of the debris dead she became erased, and the police Icetnd it impossible to control her.'

Sullivan, the champion slugger, for "Cruel and abusive treatment and grow and confirmed habits of intoxication," has commenced in the supreme court. John L. was on hand, and it may be (aid, without reserve that the idealised hero of the ring never looked better in his life. He has allowed his mnstaohe to grow and also tor hair. He wore a silk-faced Prime Albert coat closely buttoned up' and light trousers with a modest check. He had his overcoat on his arm and carried his new, glassy silk Ule in his hand. The libellant'is a tall and stately brunette of males tic proportions, whose weight is probably 180 pounds. She wore a close-fitting tlack dress and long silk gloves of chrome yellow. A small bonnet of black and yellow was perched on top of her head, • pair of diamond drops glistened in her ears, and over fcsr face she wore a half veil of black which barely shaded her handsome eyea. Though a large Women, Mrs. Sulltvan is very attractive, and not without the element* of beauty. The interest in the oase brought a great QrOwd into the court-room, and every seat on the floor and in the gallery was filled with friends of both parties and a curious pubHiv On croHS-exarninatiun. Mrs. BolllTaQ - lated in detail tbe alleged assault made upafe her at Natick. She said he came 8atardaT morning in a carriage; his brother, Mike said that he was drunk and asleep in the car riage, and he dldn't know what to do with him. M "My brother Mid to would not let hin ftey «rned np «fata between 5 am o'clock at nfchfcj had on a wrapper onlj ran to wtore the l)«by wu; ha struck me the left eye; if he had struck me as hard he strikes some he would have killed me; knocked ma back behind the trunk; noboc picied me up, beoause they were a/raid b would strike me again." Here Mr*. Sullivan became ao exhausted that a chair and a glass of water had to b« hrouiht for her, and (he appeared so weak, having JDeen under a rigid and searching cross examination for over an hour, that Judge Allen suspended her farther testimony until to-morrow morning. To thy question, "Do you know or not If tbo prisoner expressed a desire "to have some ode accompany him on bis trip to Richmond f the prosecution objected, tod the jury was sent out while the question of admitting this part of the evidence. The court ruled that the question was an imprepsr one, and the defense exoepted. Several witnesses were called to testify to the prisoner's good character. long enough to folly develop its policy; bat still its action sd far ii sufficient, I think,'to enable us to form a tolerably oprrect Idea of it* general spirit and purpose. I am satisfied that Mr. Cleveland and the heads of the various departments are doing the very beat they can under the circumstances, wo that they are entitled lo the confidence and support of their political friends throughout the oouutry. The president is a sensible, honesty and patriotio man, whose highest ambition is to disoharge his official duties in strict aoocrdance with the constitution and the laws, and tor the promotion of the public welfare. He ia careful and conscientious about everything ha undertakes, and if he commits any mistake in mating appointments or otherwise, they will, in my opinion, be due to the fact that ha is not atile in every instance to procure correct, information concerning the matters upon which & is compelled to act Ha ♦forks hard, listens patiently to the statements and tin suggestions of others, and then he decides according to his own judgment as to what Is right and proper under all the ciroumstaacee. The amount of work ha performs is remarkable. Ha ia in his office from early in the morning until late in the afternoon, and nearly every evening he is engaged for several hours with soma member of the cabinet H'Tg papers and discussing questions connected with the business of the departments, t mention this merely to show the injustice of the complaints which have been m«de in some quarters on the ground that the administration Is moving too slowly. It is physically impossible for the-president and his cabinet to do more than they are dofng. It must be remenhered, too, that during the last quarter of a century the patronage of the government has been enormously increased, and its operations have been so extended as to bring under its control a great number ot very important subjects with which it previously had no connection. The growth of the postal service alone has created a necessity lor the appointment of many thousands of officers and employes, and the same may be said of the pension bureau, though the increase has not been so great. Then the internal revenue and national banking westerns have bean established during the period mentioned, and the whole volume of paper currency ia the country has been brought under the general supervision and control of the government. People who think that the entire body of officers and employes who hare charge of these vast interests, and who are familiar with them, can be suddenly changed without detriment to the public service, are, in my opinion, very much mistaken; and, therefore, I think the administration has so far acted wisely in respect to this sabjeot. But this does not mean that the party which has received the indorsement uf the people shall not control the government It menus simply, as I understand It, that hasty tod inconsiderate action will De avoided as t%t as possible, and that doe care and caution will be exercised in determining the times ind the places in which changes can he propirly made!" lime, 10:06. The third race was the event of the day, and one of the most exciting contests evtr witnessed hero. It was As professional four-oared shell race between TeemOr and Gandaur crews as follows: Teesoer crew— V. A. Ploisted, bow; G. W. Lee, No. &; Henry Peterson, No. 8, and John Teemer, stroke.

The libollant, under the examination of Mr. Boss, told her story: "I was marriod to John L. Sullivan May 1, 1888, at Roxbury; his habits wore good before marriage and for six months afterward, when he began to drink badly and boos me intoxicated very frequently; he would be brought home drunk and I had to undress and take care of him many a time; this stato of things continued up to Jtha time I left him; the first time he abused ma was while traveling in tho west; we stopped at a Since in Montana a few boars and he cams ito the dining-room and kicked me and then threw things at me for no cause whatever; at Leadville ho drank hard, and drove mo out of the hotel with a pitcher; I was in my wrapper and slippers; I went because 1 was afraid for niy life; there Was no further personal violence during the trip. "After we returned to Boston he never came home until 8 or 4 (/clock in the morntag; be did not carry a latch-key, and required me to sit up waiting and watching for him; he expected me to do this, even if he didn't come home until the next night; I have frequently sat up all night, night after night, waiting for him. "I went to bed one night, tired out with long waiting; he came home and kicked the door in, and abused me for looking him out; I left him in December, 1884; for a year previous to that ha was drunk Marly all the time, and would come and abuse me frequently; last summer I was in Nattok, R. to see me; he was iXunk, and asleep in a carriage; 1 refuse 1 to let him in; John came back Sunday morntug, and came into my room; I was afraid of him, and ran into Mrs. Adams' part of the house whare my baby was; John came after me and struck me with his fist in the face and knocked iw senseless over the back of a trunk I did nothing in the least to make h!m strike mo; he went to Providence and Boston a*A came back to Natiek very drunk; lie said he was never going to drink any"more; Oct.. 96 be came in sober and was very crosa to me, and struck me with the enl of an umbrella; from that time until Deo: 8, 1894, the date I left him, his conduct toward me was very bad. I had one child, who now 13 months old; the child was lying in the bed at Natlck when he knocked ma down. I experienced a great chail go in my health after marriage, and have been under the doctor's care ever since I loft Mr. Sullivan. I knew Mr. Sullivan abqpt six months before we were marrUd; as near as I know I am 98 years old; I l}v«lin New York previous to my marriage, with Mr. Davis; I never roomed with or livfcd in the house with a woman who was known as Uda Piaroe, and don't know any such woman."

Naturally, though hardly knowing what was right or wrong.

Jfenn, May 28.— Dr. Promt has bean sent by the government to Marseille* to advise upon measure for preventing a repetition of last year's cholera scourge. There arc some indications that the authorities are waking up to the fact that cleanliness beforehand is what U needed .rather than medicine afterward. There have been some attempts to render Marseilles and Toulon leas filthy, but they hare largely failed because of public indifference among the ddaens. The Spanish £Dvernment's prohibition of further inocution by Dr. Ferran 1s ostensibly due to the fact that some persons who had been subjected. to the treatment died. Dr. Ferran, however, points to the fact that out of 6,000 person* inoculated with the cholera germ the deaths, if any, have bean so few as to escape record. He does not see how the government commission of imyiiry now at work can fail to'report favorably on his system in view of soch results as those. The doctor, , however, cares nothing about the result exoept from a humanitarian point of view, apd ■ays that if the Spanish government will not let him save people from cholera in Spain ha will visit Paris and London and expound the system in public there, hoping to secure its adoption by some government In response to other questions Mr. CarUals said he thought it would be the policy of the Democratic party in the next congrses to make reasonable provision for the reconstruction of the navy and the erection a*d ht* Baseball.
