From the Union-Sun of Aprif 22. 'The Board of Supervisors this morn- Ing resolved upon a strict course of pro- ceedings against ex-Superintendent of the Poor Samuel A. Carson. Mr. Car- gon yesterday asked to have the Board to defer action against him un- til 11 o'clock this morning. Neither Mr. Carson or his attorney appeared before the Board this morning. fight: following resolutions were adop- ted: Whereas, Samuel A. Carson, late Superintendent of the Poor has failed to properly account before this Board for moneys expended and articles fur- nished or alleged to have been furnish. ed to this county for the support of the poor. Tesolved, That the matter be referred to the attorney of this Board, J. H. Leg- gott of Niagara Falls, to enforce the collection of any amount due the coun- ty, and that he lay the matter before the District Attorney for investigation under the statutes made and provided, and that it be laid before the grand jury now in session. Joseph Turner, the janitor of the 'Court House, addressed the Board and asked permission to place cots in the building during the Firemen's con- vention. The Board granted the request and directed Mr. Turner to decorate the building gt a cost not to exceed $25, There is no doubt but that the coun- ty buildings will be handsomely deco rated under the supervision of Mr. Tur- new. 'The Board also appropriated $500 this morning for repairs on the lower floor of the Court House. 'The con- tract will be let to the lowest bidder. Sam Ostrander, in inmate of the County House, will probably be sent to the work house on complaint of Sup- erintendent of the Poor H. S. Tomp- king. County Clerk Pettit appeared before the Board and asked for an appropria- tion which will enable him to raise the salaries of the young ladies employed in the County Clerk's office. The young ladies in the recording room re- under the present County Clerk. When James Compton held the office of County Clerk the em- ployees of the recording room received. $6 a week, for working ten hours a day six days ma week. Under the present celtk they want to have the same pay while working but eight hours, five and one half days in the week. It is thought by many that a raise in the salaries of the employees of the recording room will be a needless expenditure. The po- gitton is not a responsible one and re- quires no requisites, but to be able to write a legible hand. Miss Redhead and her assistant receive but $7 and $6 a week respectively and hold far more responsible positions. Miss Redhead makes all the searches and has a bet- ter knowledge of the affairs of the of- fice~ than any other person employed there. Hor salary should be increased to at least $12 an week,. ferred to the committee on sherviff's and county clerk's accounts, consisting of gressrs. Sheldon, Peterson and Rear- don. The Supervisors adjourned at 3 o'clock subject to the call of the clerk. Before adjournment they voted to al- low the employes in the recording room of the county clerk an advance of $1 per week in their pay from now out. Supervisor W. V. Peterson of the committee of county house accounts, was subpoenaed as a witness before the grand. Jury this afternoon. and it is assumed that Carson's case will be tak- en up by that body at an early date. OLCOTT VERY DRY. FIVE OF THE LOCAL SPORTS RE- sOLVE NEVER FO VISIT THE PLACE AGAIN-A CAMP IN THB Five of the Lockport sports visited the Lake Sunday. The effects of the Raines bill was such that they could not get a drink of anything stronger than railk shake. After trying in vain to influence the hotel men to give them something to quench their thirst, they resolved not to patronize the hotel men and adjourned to the railroad bridge over the creek where they built a fire 'and cooked the fish they had caught. While in camp a rin storm came up and the bold fisherman felt the effects of the Spring Raines on the out side as well as inside, They have taken a solemn onth never to visit Olcott again. It was stated this morning by one who visits Olcott very frequently 'that there would probably be but one hotel open there this season. The Grove House is the only hotel which can get through the summer and pay expenses with out the aid of a bar room. ma ame % cam Love Could Not Conquer. \Love conquers all things,\ they say; but we know better, There are some things it cannot conquer.

FUCHS OF NIAGARA FALLS IS WITH VIO- LATING THH RAINES BILL- SEVERAL NIAGARA PALLS PEO- PLE SUBPOENAED. From the Union-Sun of April 22. Herman C. Fuschs, proprietor of the Hotel Nassau on Falls Street, Niagara Falis, will appear in this city to-day on the charge of violating the Sunday clos- ing law. Complaint was made by the Niagara Falls police auchorities to Dis- trict Attorney Hopkins. It is alleged that Fuschs sold a large quantity of wet goods with sandwiches on Sunday. Many witnesses have been subpoenaed, including several prominent citizens of Niagara Falls, The case will be watched with much interest and other tailTESts may follow in case of convic- on. A Union-Sun reporter had a talk with Mr. Fuchs at the Court House this morning. Mr. Fuchs said: \L.have been arrested for violating the Raines liquor law. I have been doing the same as the Iropuois and Brozell Hotels have been doing in Buffalo. 'There does not seem to be any one who knows how the law applies to my case. I did not sellany person liquor who did not buy a meal. 'The customers in my place were only waited on by myself and my two bar- tenders. I think that I obeyed the law in every respect. Nearly forty wit- nesses were subpoenged to appear be- fore the Grand Jury which is now in session. I \We all came down here on the morn- ing train on the Erie. There was nearly a car load of us. I sold liquor Sunday on the advice of the City Attorney of Niagara Falls and I do not see how a case can be made out against me. I think the reason I was arrested was be- cause the officer who caused my arrest was, afraid he would not do his duty unless he caused my arrest. ' \The grounu I have for selling liquor on last Sunday is based on Section 31 clause 2 of 'the Raines bill. not a single clause of the bill that I have not lived up to. \If the saloon men of Niagara Falls are not to be allowed to sell liquor on Sunday a great many of them will have to. go out of business as Sunday is their best Jay. A great many people visit the Falls on Sunday and it is the best day of the week for the saloon men. I think that the Grand Jury may find a bill of endictment against me, but there is no doubt in my mind but that I can clear myself of the charge. There is not a jury in the counury which will find me guilty. . \When asked if he would continue to sell liquor on Sunday Mr. Fuchs said: \I have not made up my mind as yet. I will act upon the advice of my attor- ney as I did on last Sunday.\ A NEW CHIEF. CHRIST KUMRO AT THE HEAD oF _; TONAWNADAS POLICE FORCE. The Tonawanda Common Council last night appointed Christ Kumro, Chief of Police. Kumro was with Po- liceman Duffy on the lumber piles and witnessed the murder of Capt. Phillips and his son. When the vote was an- nounced Justice Kohler sand that the action of the board was a virtual re- ward for the action of Kumro at the time of the riot, and he refused to con- tenance it. He resigned from the Po- lice Board. 'The audience cheered him. The elected are: Bock, Gagnon, Al- lerie, Keohn, Killewalt, Engel, McDer- mott., Kumro. HYMENEAL. _._. From the Union-Sun of April 22.

Daniels, general passenger agent of the New York Central, has de- cided to insert in all advertisements of the famous Empire State Express a line explaining that only as many pass- engers will be carried on that train as can be sented. This step is rendered necessary by the frequent attempts of travelers to board the train after it is completely filled. Conductors and train men have found it difficult at times to convince such urgent but be- lated persons that orders. were to allow no more passengers on the train than could find seats.

He said in part as follows: \There has been boys clubs formed in all the large cities in New England. My business is to visit the police courts in the morning and have talks with the prisoners. \In many instances I have been able to have their sentences lightened.
