DESERTED CHILDREN

Four Youngsters Supported by One of Their Number, A Newsboy.

Four children, the eldest 13 years of age and the youngest not more than 5, were found living together in the house at No. 62 Genesee street yesterday by Agent GROOT of the Humane Society and were taken by him to the shelter. No grown person was living with them. They are the children of George McDERMOTT. The mother is ill at a hospital and the whereabouts of the father is not known. It is thought that the man has left town. The four youngsters had nothing to live upon except what was brought in by one of their number who sells papers. His profits seldom amount to a half dollar a day and it can be readily understood that his brothers and sisters lacked the food necessary to sustain life properly.

The case of PARKER vs. McKEOUN, which grew out of an assault and battery, was tried and the three following cases were practically the same, growing out of the same occurrence.

There was a double wedding at the Methodist Episcopal church in Savannah at 4 o'clock yesterday when Bertram G. CLARK was married to Miss Minnie REAMER, and Raymond H. KELLY to Miss Bertha Helen VAN EPPS. The church was crowded to its fullest capacity nearly 350 persons being present. The wedding march was played by Miss Mable WOOD, the contracting parties being preceded up the aisle by the ushers who were their only attendants. The church was beautifully trimmed with evergreens, and a pyramid of potted plants occupied a place back of the alter. The ceremony was performed by Rev. G. E. CAMPBELL beneath an evergreen arch. The brides wore gray traveling suits and carried bouquets of white roses. The ushers were Charles H. WOOD, and Fred SHERMAN of Savannah; Sydney KELLY, of Syracuse; and Samuel AVERHILL, of Rochester. Guest were present from Syracuse, Rochester, Baldwinsville, Auburn, Wolcott and many other places. The wedding supper was served by H. E. NEWTON in the basement of the church and was a very elaborate one, covers being laid for 150 persons.

The fire Tuesday night, in which the apple house on Elmer street in Lyons belonging to George W. KNOWLES was destroyed, came very near being a conflagration. The wind was blowing thirty miles an hour from the south and a row of wooden buildings just north of the apple house was saved only by the strenuous exertions of the firemen, who were two hours in assuring their safety. Had these buildings caught there is no telling where the flames would have stopped. The inhabitants of these houses suffered considerable loss to property, having ripped up their carpets and taken all their household goods into the street. Those were four to five thousand barrels of apples in the warehouse, and these are worth nearly $4 a barrel. Most of them are a total loss, but teams were busy all day yesterday carting the barreled fruit away from the basement, where much of it escaped destruction by the flames. This fruit is but slightly damaged by smoke and water. It is hard to state exactly the loss. The walls of the building are still standing, but the roof fell through, and all the floors as well. The only theory advanced as to the cause of the fire is that it caught from the stove which was used for keeping the temperature above the freezing point.

At 4 o'clock yesterday morning the flour and lumber mills of R. NEELEY & Co., of Belfast, were discovered on fire. An alarm was quickly given and the department responded promptly, but when it arrived the entire buildings were enveloped in flames and but little could be accomplished, except in saving the adjacent buildings. A large new stock of grain and machinery had recently been added, making the loss much greater than would been at any other time. Incendiarism is supposed to have been the cause of the fire. The loss will amount to about $7,000, with $2,500 insurance. The mills will probably not be rebuilt.

Richard VAN VOORHIS has begun an action in behalf of Sarah A. PARKER against DeVillo W. SELYE. The suit is brought to compel Mr. SELYE to make an accounting of the moneys he has received from the estate of his father, Lewis SELYE. In January, 1883, Lewis SELYE died intestate, the only persons having any interest in the estate were DeVillo W. SELYE and his niece, Sarah A. PARKER, the plaintiff. After a conference it was decided by them to sell the real estate in parcels and to better facilitate this the plaintiff agreed to let the defendant have charge of the sales and gave him full power of attorney. In the complaint which was filed yesterday she states that Mr. SELYE has never rendered any account of the property or of the proceeds of the sales, nor has he paid over any portion of the receipts to her. The plaintiff further alleges that she has asked Mr. SELYE for an accounting several times, but that he refuses to recognize her claims and denies that she has any rights in the premises. The plaintiff will ask to have a receiver of the property appointed during the pendecy of the section. The property in question is estimated to be worth about $250,000. Of this, it is alleged, Mr. SELYE has sold about $100,000 worth.

ONTARIO

Thomas CAFERTZOK, a member of the Hungarian squad which is at present employed upon the Lehigh Valley gravel train at Manchester, last Wednesday afternoon kidnapped and attempted, if not actually succeeded in criminally assaulting a little six-year-old girl named Anna HUDOCK, Italians employed at Manchester. It appears that sometime during the afternoon the mother missed her child, who had been about the place where the family lived all the morning, and was not in the habit of either wandering off or of going to see any of the neighbors, the Italian family not being on intimate terms with anyone thereabouts. As night approached the woman became more and more apprehensive concerning the protracted absence of the little girl and expressed fear that she had wandered away and met with some accident.
Having told the neighbors of her alarm, a search was instituted, but it was left for the mother herself to finally discover her child in company with the man in a terrible situation. The fiend attempted to conceal the little girl when approached by the most frantic mother, but his efforts were of no avail, and dropping the girl he attempted to escape, running rapidly from Mrs. HUDOCK. The incensed woman immediately, gave an alarm and a party gave chase and finally captured the man. He begged for mercy, evidently anticipating that something violent was awaiting him, from the angry expressions of the men and the dark faces of his capturers. In fact for a time it appeared as if the crowd was determined to either lynch or burn him, as cries of "burn him! Hang him up!" etc., came from all sides, but he was speedily hurried to the office of Justice Charles L. BRYANT, at Shortsville, where he was followed by a mob, which had greatly increased. He is about 21 years of age. He cannot understand English easily and it was necessary to employ an interpreter at the examination which was conducted before the justice-of- the-peace. The circumstances were immediately telegraphed to Sheriff INGRAHAM at Canandaigua, and that officer detailed a constable to conduct the prisoner to the county jail. Coroner Orlando J. HALLENBECK visited the scene of the occurrence yesterday and made an examination of the little girl, the result of which will not be made public at present. The prisoner will be held to await the action of the grand jury.

MADDEN DEAD

His Terrible Fall to the Frozen River Caused Fatal Injuries.

Francis J. MADDEN, of No. 60 Phelps avenue, who was found at the bottom of the east bank of the river just south of the Platt street bridge on the afternoon of February 7th, with his hands and feet frozen, his right arm broken in two places, his nose broken, and his head and face cut and bruised, died at St. Mary's Hospital at 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon from the effects of his injuries.
As soon as he was taken to the hospital the surgeons gave it as their opinion that his recovery was hardly possible. At first there was a suspicion that he might have been thrown over the bridge by some person or persons unknown, but after being in the hospital a couple of days he recovered sufficiently to explain that he fell over the river bank from the railroad track that runs along the brink of the river back of the Standard Brewing Company's building. Coroner GRAHAM was notified yesterday afternoon of MADDEN'S death. The coroner said last evening that he would probably grant a certificate of accidental death.
