DANGER IN FAST DRIVING OF AUTOMOBILES. SANT OTHER CATASTROPHES SINCE JULY DISREGARD OF PRIVATE AND PUBLIC SAFETY. (Special 10 The New York Tribune by French Cable (Special to The New York Tribune by French Cable.) (Coprright; 1802: By The Tribune Association.) Paris, Aag. 15 —The automobile accident near Pacy-sur-Fure, which caused the death of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fair on Thursday; tne serious accident on Wednesday, when Mme. Paul Dol fuss Was thrown from her son's motor car and proke her leg, while on the road from Aix to Paris; the recent accident near Meulan, when 31. Deutsch de la Meuse barely escaped death py the overturning of his car; the death of Baron Biecichre ver. who was crushed by his motor car, and nineteen other automobile catas grophes recorded since July 1, are all due to the primary cause of high speed. Mme. Houret, wife of the gatekeeper of the Chateau du Yulsson de Mai, and Brotey, the young mechanicien of Mr. Fair, who, so far as can be ascertained, were the only evewitnesses of the fatal accident en Thursday, say that the sutomobile was going at a speed of from 100 to 120 kilometres, or from 62 to 741; miles an hour. The quick turn to the right to avoid the hay cart brcught the front wheel oan to the roughly paved gutter, which caused the explo sion of the tire, which, in turn, rendered the steering gear uscless, sc that the automobile, gfter gyrating zbout like forked lightning, hit an elm tree, instantly killing Mr. and Mrs. Fair. This was merely the uncontrollable sequence of the high speed. hath The causes of this and of the other inotor car gecidents siready mentioned were discussed to day at the Automobile Club, and the unani mous opinion is that the members of recognized gutomobile clubs and owners of automobiles ghould be impressed with the terrible risk they sun in indulging in outbursts of high sjeed, even on the long, broad and perfect roads of Normandy. There is the deepest sympathy felt for Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fair, and it is admit ted that almost every auto car on the favorite road between Mantes and Evreux, which is as gmooth as a billiard table, lets out at full speed. It ie also noted that in the last fortnight at Trouville and Dieppe and Aix-les-Bains, there has been 2 great deal too much auto-scorching, gsually by new and young owners of n.otor ears. One of the offenders in this respect is Tod Sloan. the American, who i= reported as going at a maximum speed through the Nor men villages near Trouville, Pont Leveque and Cabourg. bringing discredit on the automobilist and causing the violent indignation of the coun try folk. _ It sc happens that only last Tuesday I had @riven over the road from Evreux to Pacysur Eure. The road is beautifully macadamized and is in perfect condition. The spot where the gecident occurred, exactly in front of the gates of the Chateau de Mai, is on a moderate de scending grade. Four miles to the west of Pacv the road is slightly winding to make the descent to the River Eure more gradual. There are double rows of fine elm trees beside the route, and on each side of the road there are gutters about a yard wide, paved w'th large, rough stones, known a= the Pave uu Fel It was doubtless one of these rough tones that pierced the front tire, which was the immediate gzuse of the accident. Yesterday the uodies of Mr. and Mrs. Falr, covered with linen sheets, reposed in the keeper's lodge. The heads rad been completely crushed in and the features were entirely beyond recognition. Mrs. Fair's eveglass had penetrated into the right eye to the brain. Dr. Perriquet states that death in both cases must have been instantaneous ard without suffering. To-day beth bedies e to be embalmed. c.3 B. DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT. Paris, Aug. 15.—Mr. Ellis, manager of the Hotel Ritz, who has been at the Chateau Buisson du Mal to-day, in accordance with in structions sent by cable from Mrs. Hermann Qelrichs, Mr. Fair's sister, to arrange for the removal of the bodies and Mr. and Mrs. Fair's belongings to New-York, says he saw Dr. Perrl quet, who was summoned after the accident from the neighboring town of Pacy-sur-Eure. Dr. Perriquet told Mr. Ellis that when he reached the scene of the disaster both Mr. and Mrs. Fair were dead. They had apparently been killed outright. The gatekeeper and other per gons connected with the Chateau Buisson du Mai also thought that both the Fairs were dead When picked up. Mr. Ellis found the bodies covered with beau tiful flowers which M. Borson, the owner of the chateau, had gathered from his garden. Mr. Ellis had the bodies embalmed and placed in two oaken coffins lined with lead. They were enveloped in silk shrouds. A special car was engaged to bring the remains by rail to Paris. They will be dispatched to New-York by the first steamer. W. K. Vanderbilt, sr., telegraphed from Trou ¥ille this afternoon asking if he could be of ser vice, but all the arrangements had been then comnleted ALLEGED CAUSE OF ACCIDENT. Paris, Aug. 15—The fatal accident to Mr. and Mrs. Fair is the sensation of the city. and the leading tonic of conversation among American Tesidents and in automcbile circles. The manager of the firm which sold to Mr. Fair the automobile in which he met his death Seclared in an interview to-day that he had More than once warned Mr. Fair that he was 00 imprudent. He said Mr. Fair had the Speed madness,” and had met with an acci Gent the last part of June, when he ran into 80other 2utomobile on the Chanps Elysées, but no one was Killed. “I attribute the accident,” said the manager ©f the firm. “to the condition of the road where the disaster happened. At this point there is a Bleep and treacherous incline, down which Mr. must have gone at full speed, and his automobile, which was capable of running about t miles on the level, would then have a speed of from eighty-seven to ninety three miles an hour. “Mr. Fair was not a skilful driver, like W. K. Vanderbilt, jr. In fact, he had not driven an

He told Mr. Fair, who tried to stop, and the ac cident followed. Peasants who saw the auto mobile say it was going at such a terrific puce at some points that it was impossible to dis tinguish its color. The firm that sold to Mr. Fair the automobile last June, says that he paid £12,000 for it, and ordered another at the same price to be of sixty horsepower. The sec ond machine was almost ready for delivery. Mr. Fair was fond of driving an automobile and never missed a day on the road. Several times he attempted to beat the one hour record. SURE WILL PROVIDES FOR ALL XEPHEW OF MRS. FAIR SAYS HER MOTHER KNEW NATURE OF DAUGH TER'S BEQUESTS, Some light was thrown vesterday on the dis position of the property of Charles I. Fair and his wife, who were killed in an automobile acci dent at Evreaux, France, on Thursday, while returning to Paris from Trouville. Edward S. Lefler, a nephew of Mrs. Fair, who is a real estate broker at No. 36 Wall-st., is the son of a sister of Mrs. Fair. They were the daughters of William Smith, of Newmarket, N. J. After Mr. Smith's death his widow married Lloyd Nelson. By this marriage she had a son, Abra ham Nelson. The children of her first mar riage were four—the late Mrs. Fair. the mother of Mr. Lefler. another daughter. and a son. Mr. Lefler himself has several brothers and sisters He said yesterday that he was sure that the will of Mrs. Fair would be found to provide for all these various relatives. After the Fair prop erty was divided. last March, Charles L. Fair, according to Mr. Lefler, drew a will leaving all his property to his wife. Mrs. Fair had told Mrs. Nelson. her mother, of this will in the course of her correspondence. The question, then, hinges greatly on one point, whether Mrs. Fair's will is so drawn that in their apparently simultaneous death the property can be con sidered as having passed from him to Mrs, Fair. If it did so, Mrs. Fair's own will provides for a distribution of benefits to her family. This will was known to Mrs. Neilson also, and Mr. Lefler heard about it from her. Indeed, he said that he understood that Mrs. Fair had left a copy of the will with her mother the last time she was in this country. Mr. Lefler last saw Mrs. Fair three years ago at the Hotel Netherland. She discussed with him the education of his sisters and the pros pects and success of the whole family. He said that she always kept in touch with their doings through her correspondence with her mother. She built a home for her mother, which cost $5.4%) and was always considerate and kindly. She also built homes for her brother and for her sister. In her own right Mrs. Fair is said to have had about $400.x¥). If the will she left covers all property which is hers at the time of her death, and the will of Mr. Fair op erates in devising all his wealth to her, Mr. Lefler and the various members of the family may come into a large inheritance. Mrs. Fair owned a house in Riverside Drive at Seventy-fifth-st. It is a limestone front and of five stories, and was transferred to her in 1809. Tt is understood that she and her husband had intended to occupy this house—No. 31 Riv erside Drive—in the near future. WILL GO TO CALIFORNIA. MRS. FAIR TOLD RELATIVES THEY WOULL BE CARED FOR. Plainfield, N. J., Aug. 15 (Special).—There is little to be learned from the relatives of Mrs. Charles L. Fair who live at Newmarket re garding her wealth. Mrs. Fair's mother, Mrs. Hannah Nelson, and the half brother, Abram G. Nelson, who live in Newmarket, know nothing as to the outcome of the tragedy except that Mrs. Fair when she visited her former home two vears ago told them that if she should die they would be weil cared for. When the news of Mrs. Fair's death was received yesterday her mother was visiting her daughter at Union, N. J., and she returned to her home this morn ing. She received another telegram from her daughter's counsel in California, and in re gponse to that is preparing to go on Sunday to the Pacific Coast. 8he will be accompanied by her son, Abram G. Nelson. There is little to be learned of the early life of Mrs. Fair, for she did not spend much of her time at home. Her father, William Smith, was for years in the employ of Henry Dunham, a tailor of Newmarket, and he was accustomed to make frequent trips about New-Jersey. One day he started on one of these trips and never returned. Some time later his wife married a second time. Mrs. Fair was always good to her near relatives. She started her half brother, Abram G. Nelson, in the grocery business, while Miss Mabel Lefler, a niece, was being educated at a girls’ school near Caldwell, XN. J. Mrs. Fair's immediate relatives include her mother, Mrs. Hannah Nelson; William B. Smith, a brother, and Abram G. Nelson, a half brother, of Newmarket: Mrs. Joshua Leonard, a sister, of Caldwell, N. J.; Mrs. George Bunnell, a sister, of Union, N. J., and two brothers, Charles Smith, of Colorado, and Frank Smith, of Ten nessee, LIVELY CONTEST PROMISED OVER THE COMMON ESTATE. San Francisco, Aug. 15.—The first step in what promises to be a long and bitter contest over the $10,000,000 estate of Charles L. Fair was taken this morning when Public Administrator John Farnham filed application for letters of administration on the estates of Mr. and Mrs. Fair. He alleged that the property was in need of attention. Judge Cook set the hearing for 10 o'clock to-morrow, when repre sentatives of the heirs will appear in court to op pose the application. It is known that Mr. Fair and his wife left wills. They were made more than a year ago and, in general terms. the contents are known. Mr. Fair gave all his property, estimated to be worth $10,000,000, to his wife, and made her sole executrix. This will was witnessed by his at torney, Charles J. Heggerty, and Joseph Harvey, a sporting man and close personal friend of Mr. Fair. Heggerty. armed with a court order, began a search of safe deposits used by the Fairs to-day. If it is true that Mrs. Fair survived her husband, then she became Lis heir, and the entire estate, under the wills, will pass to her relatives. If she died first, the sisters of Mr. Fair, Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs and Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt, will inherit the property. According to California law, meet death at the same time, the man is presumed to have survived the longer by reason of his greater vitality. So, if it be found that death was instan taneous in both cases, Mr. Fair's sisters will take al the property. The way is open for many law suits. iy There being some division of opinion among the friends and relatives of Charles Fair as to whether his will, now in the hands of Knight Haggerty, his attorneys, was the last made by him, Judge Carroll Cook to-day issued an order grapung the attorneys permission to search the several safe de posit boxes used by Fair, so that if there is a will of more recent date it will be brought to light. Hermann Oeclrichs, brother-in-law of the dead man, is emphatic in hie assertion that Charles Fair made a will shortly before leaving this city for Europe. Mr. Heggerty announced late this evenin that he had found several wills of both Mr. Fair and his wife. These wills are all sealed, and will not be opened until Mrs. Oelrichs, who is now on her way from New-York, arrives here. When she comes the wills will be opened and photographed. It is said that Mr. Fair made a will since the set tiement of the estate of James G. Fair. Mr. Heggerty says that so far as wills are con cerned everything is in good shape. He abso lutely refused to say a word of the contents of the documents. It is learned from other sources, however, that Mrs. Fair's will places her estate at $250,000. Her will gives half of this to her rela tives and half to her husband. Nothing is known of the contents of Mr. Fair's will e wills of both dated April, 1900, are the latest.

CUBAN LEADERS WILL NOT VIOLATE PLATT MEASURE IN GETTING PRO POSED LOAN. (Copyright; 1802: By The Tribune Association.) (COPYrighnt| 1a. DY 1he 11T777UNE ASSULIaLIU.) Havana, Aug. 15.—The comments which have heen made within the last week by American papers in regard to the proposed Cuban loan have greatly disturbed the Cuban press. The first announcement of the stand taken by the majority of the papers in the United States was received here with astonishment, and all of the Cuban papers have been devoting columns of space to telling why the United States can not interfere. The Platt amendment, they say, will not be violated in the least, as they have kept Article, 2 of this document in mind all of the time. Inquiry among the different leaders of the government at first failed to reveal the plans by which they intend to get around the provisions of the Platt law, but The Tribune correspondent has received information from one of the members of the Cuban Senate, who has been the father of the loan project, that ample provision will be made for the estab lishment of a sinking fund for the payment of the $35,000,000 loan. The method to be used, ac cording to the plans of the leaders, is the adop tion of an internal tax, similar to the war tax which was collected by the United States dur ing the Spanish-American War. Such a meas ure is under consideration, and a bill is being di. fted. The bill provides for a tax on every bale of tobacco, every package of cigarettes, every ledger of business houses, every tele gram or check. The tax on each of these arti cles is intended to be very light, and the in come from this method is figured at $3,000,000 annually. This amount, it is thought, will be amply sufficient to not only pay the interest on the debt, but to establish a large sinking fund which will pay off the indebtedness in a comparatively few years. It is believed by nearly all of the Cuban legislators that President Roosevelt and Secre tary Root have full cognizance of the loan question, and have recognized the necessity of it. This belief has caused some to favor the ‘oan who would have otherwise been opposed to it. Some who formerly were opposed to the logn are now in favor of it, not because it will do the country any lasting good, but because times are so very hard that $35,000,000 put into circulation would make things boom at least for a while. It is assumed by this class that the soldiers who are paid this money wiil spend their money quickly. Those who would profit thereby are largely a class which always lives up to and, when possible, beyond its income, and. therefore, it is reasoned that the greater part of the money will be put into circulation almost at once. This pleases the merchants, for they expect to get their share of the prize. One prominent merchant told your correspond ent that although he had been in business for twenty-five vears he had never seen such dull times. He is in Obispo-st., the best business street of the city, and on yesterday at 3 o'clock In the afternoon he had not sold goods worth 5. He said that he was afraid that there was a boycott against him, but he visited other stores of the ein and found all just as badly off as he was, apd some ever worse. This merchant said he wmild be forced to quit business unless there was hope for a change soon. This same senti ment has been expressed by many others. Some are sincere and others not. One thing is certain, and that is that there are houses which are suspending every day. In one month there have heen more failures than the record of any previous year, according to “The Commercial Gazette

QUESA DA ON CUBAN LOAN. HIS GOVERNMENT NOT INTENDING TO CREATE A DEBT IT CANNOT CARRY, HE SAYR. Bo Washington, Aug. 13.—Seflor Quesada, the Cuban Minister, discussed to-day with diplo matic reserve the proposition of his gov ernment to borrow £35,000000 by issuing bonds for that amount, drawing 0 per cent interest, and to be paid in accordance with the terms of the Platt amendment, which provides that Cuba “shall not as sume or cotnract any public debt to pay the interest upon which, and to make reasonable sinking fund provision for the ultimate dis charge of which, the ordinary revenues of the island, after defraying the current expenses of government, shall be inadequate.”

Sefior Quesada intimated strongly that in this loan proposition, his government has been pro ceeding as If it were a subfect with which the United States had nothing to do. He did not state his opinion in so direct a manner or in such bald terms as are here employed, but the effect of his language was the same. “My government,” he sald, “is moving very cautiously in the matter, and we are not going to do anything that would burden us with a load of debt we could not carry. It seems to have been overlooked in this country that the loan proposition has not yet hecome a law, that it has only reached the Senate, and has not vet been finally acted upon by the House of our Congress, and that, even if it passes the House, it will have to go to the President for approval. In other words, the procedure cf our Congress is just like that of yours, with a Presidential veto on all acts, just as there is in this coun try. If the act is passed, and is then approved by President Palma, our next concern vill be to place the bonds. Of course, we cannot place them unless we are able to show to investors two esgential facts—first, that they are legal, and, second, our ability to pay interest promptly and redeem the bonds when the principal becomes due. Hence, unless it is evident in advance of issue that we can estab lish the value of these bonds to the compiete satisfaction of the financial world, we would not authorize the President to negotiate a loan of such proportion, nor would President Palma give the act his necessary approval. We are forbidden by our constitution from contracting debts in excess of our ability to pay without overstraining our revenues. That clause was put into our constitution before we knew that the Platt amendment was, 80 you see we had in mind just what animated the framers of the Platt amendment on this point. I was a mem ber of the Constitutional Convention, and re member distinctly the discussion of this impor tant clause at the time.” Minister Quesada then handed to The Trib une correspondent the following itemized report on Cuban revenues for the month of July: CTILTOM HOUSE DIUITIES Havana .........83874,875 61 Nuevitas $12,739 24 Cienfuegos 108,023 74iSagua ........5... 10,682 31 Santiago de Cuba. 86,700 Guantanamo 6,653 12 Matanzas 81,484 58!

(Special to The New-York Tribune by French Cable.) (Copyright; 1802: By The Tribune Association.) London, Aug. 16, 1 a. m.—A perfect storm has been raised in Germany by the publication of the Emperor's telegram to the Prince Regent of Bavaria criticising the conduct of the Reichs rath, and offering to make a gift of the money which the Reichsrath refused to vote for art purposes. There is a disposition to regard the incident as an unwarrantable interference in the domestic affairs of the federated State. The Radical press disclaims for the most part the idea that the Emperor acted solely in the in terests of art. Westminster Abbey is the most popular peep show in London to-day. The Duke of Norfolk, when he conceived the idea of opening to the public the venerable pile, girt with the pomp and circumstance of {ts coronation robings, had a Anger on the people's pulse. On Wednesday and Thursday altogether nearly seventeen thou sand persons paid for admission, but yesterday was “sixpenny day,” and Londoners flocked in extraordinary numbers toward Westminster. By midday the greatest crowd, marshalled in the most orderly queue that London has ever wit nessed, stretched from the Abbey for a dis tance of nearly two miles, to Vauxhall Bridge. The people stood six deep, and the extraordi nary thing was that the newcomers did not ap pear in any way taken aback by the prodigious length of the line, but fell into their places at the end, quietly and contentedly. The male members of this extraordinary multitude formed no more than a sprinkling. The vast majority was of women, some dressed most fashionably, but the greater proportion representing the lower and middie classes, to whom had been denied the privilege of witnessing the historic pageant on August 9.

The turnstiles passed people into the Abbey at the rate of three thousand an hour, and at the close of the day twenty thousand persons had paid sixpences, but fully forty thousand had to go home disappointed.

The King has presented to the Abbey a most beautiful gold ornament, composed of a crucifix, from the buse of which issue two branches, one on each side, supporting the figures, respective ly, of the Blessed Virgin and St. John. This magnificent ornament is understood to be the King's special coronation gift ta the Abbey. Captain Watkins, who has cast anchor in Falmouth Harbor after his adventurous Atlantic voyage, intends to enjoy a long rest at Fal mouth, and will probably then navigate his boat to London and thence to Germany, where he was born.

The report that Dr. Gunsaulus, of Chicago, will succeed Dr. Parker at the City Temple is premature, but consuitations have been held during the week, and he can evidently stay in London if he wishes to give up his important work in America.

T CN IR MANY VISITORS AT COWES. GUESTS AND AN INVESTITURE ON THE ROYAL YACHT I.ondcn, Aug. 10. -—Portsmouth is now filled up with visitors who have gone to witness the naval review to-morrow. To-night the fleet was illuminated for a little while by way of re hearsal, and fireworks sent up from Southsea Commons added to the scene.

Several more members of the roval families joined the royal party off Cowes this evening. The Colonial Secretary, Joseph Chamberlain, and Mrs. Chamberlain, Earl Roberts, Com mar.der in Chief of the Forces, and Lord Kitch ener, reached Southampton to-day and boarded the steamer Nigeria, upon which the Boer Gen erals De Wet, Delarey and Botha will be wel comed upon their arrival from South Africa to morrow, and entertained during the review, NO FORTRESS TO BE LEASEL CUBAN HOUSE VOTES TO PREVENT LEASES OF STATIONS.

(Copyright; 1302: By The Tribune Association) Havana, Aug. 15.—The stevedores and lighter men’s unions of Havana Harbor have decided to declare a general strike to-morrow if their demands are not granted. The strike will be in sympathy with the stevedores of the Norwegian steamship Parran. The men demand 30 cents a ton instead of $250 a day, which they now receive. There is little chance of adjustment. The strikers say that General Wood forced the present scale on them in English, and they did not understand the terms.

SAYS IT'S FALSE AND ABSURD FORAKER DENIES THAT HE WILL BE VICE-PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. {RY TFLEGRAPH TO THF TRIBUNE.)

{BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. Toledo, Ohio, Aug. 15.—Senator Foraker was a guest of his Toledo friends for five hours to night. He came in at 6:38 and left at 11:35 over the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton for Cincinnati. While here he staved, as is his usual custom, at the Boody Housé, where he met many of his admirers, who kept him busy answering queries about the story that he would be a candidate for the Vice-Presidency, with President Roosevelt as the head of tQe ticket. Senator Foraker was rather sensitive on this point. When the newspaper men dques tioned him about it he testily replied:

The story is false and absurd. 1 cannot imagine how it started. have no friends there in Washington now who are in anyway author ized to speak for me. There is nothing in it. Asked as to whom he believed would be the next Republican nominee for the Presidency, he said that he did not think there was any ques tion that President Roosevelt would be the can didate of the party; that he was worthy of it and deserved It. But he was unusually cross grained when any one asked him about that

Littauer’s renomina tion in the FultonHamiltonMontgomerySara toga-Warren district will be taken up informally by the committee, and it is thought that the way will be made smooth for Mr. Littauer. The temporary chairmanship of the State Con vention will not come before the committee. The storm of criticism accompanying the sug gestion that L. E. Quigg had been selected for the chairmanship has convinced the leaders that this is not the year to bestow honors on Mr. Quigg. The temporary chairmanship matter will be shoved to one side until Senator Platt comes back from Raquette Lake, the latter part of next week, and then a report will be made to him about the adverse comment that the suggestion of Mr. Quigg's name caused. When Colonel Dunn was asked about the temporary chairmanship last night, after consultation with various members of the State Committee, he said:

“The matter is not settled. I do not think that Senator Platt at any time has been insist ent upon the selection of Mr. Quigg. Doubtless he was disposed to confer a compliment on Mr. Quigg, not anticipating that there would be the criticism that has been provoked. The question of the temporary chairmanship will not come before the committee at 11 o'clock to-morrow. About all we shall do will be to issue the call for the convention, and then adjourn. It will be a short meeting.” It is possible that a successor to the late Will fam J. Glenn, of Allegany County, will be chosen to-day. If representatives of all the counties in the new Congress district are pres ent, and it is agreeable to all, his temporary successor may be named to-morrow.

Republicans of prominence from various parts of the State began arriving at the Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday afterncon, nearly a day ahead of time. This is a habit with some of the mem bers, without regard to the weather or distance that they have to travel. Jacob Snell and his son, from Amsterdam, were two of the earliest arrivals. Louis F. Payn, of Chatham, and Thomas Wheeler, of Utica, two of the veteran political war horses of the State, were early on hand, and had long talks with Colonel Dunn. Henry B. Coman, Deputy Attorney General, and Judge Frank H. Robinson, of Steuben, can didates for Attorney General, spent part of the evening at the hotel. Mr. Coman, who is re garded as the probable nominee, was introduced to many local Republicans by his old school mate, John Stewart. Some of the others present last night were James M. Gilbert, of Onondaga County, con nected with the Insurance Department: L. F. Fish, county chairman of Mentgomery County: W. M. Smyth, publisher of “The Owego Times,” Senator Platt's home paper: Assemblyman Gherardi Davis and James W. Perry, of the XXVIith Assembly District; A. O. Bunnell, of “The Dansville Advertiser,” who has just fin ished fifty years’ continuous service as a pub lisher; Borough President George Cromwell of Richmond, Deputy Appraiser George W. Wan maker, S. Fred Nixon, Speaker of the Assem biy; W. W. Worden, of Saratoga; Isaac V. Baker, jr., of Washington County, and L. B. Gleason, of Delhi.

Jacob Snell, of Amsterdam, in referring to the deadlock in his Congress district that at one time threatened to leave Mr. Littauer at home, said: “The fight in the district primarily is over rep resentation of the various counties making up the new district. This is the first time that the counties have been thrown together in a Con gress district, and it is not surprising that there should be friction over the question of repre sentation. Fulton and Hamilton have nine dele gates in the State convention; Montgomery, eight: Saratoga, eleven, and Warren, six. A glance at these figures shows that when Fulton and Hamilton and Saratoga wish to combine under the present representation, they can dom inate the situation. That is what Montgomery and Warren ohject to. They want equal repre gentation for all the Assembly districts making up the Congress district. There have been seven or eight conferences, and there will be another at Saratoga on Monday at 8 o'clock.” Mr. Snell admitted that one ox the main rea sons for the opposition to Mr. Littauer was that Mr. Littauer had considerable to do with defeating him (Snell) for the Senate nomina tion to succeed Hobart Krum. Mr. Snell in voked the aid of Senator Platt, and, much to the chagrin of Mr. Littauer, he soon found that Congressman Stewart, of Amsterdam, and Con gressman Emerson, of Warrensburg, were can didates for a nomination that he supposed would be conceded to him. It is expected that the State Committee will lend Mr. Littauer a help ing hand and that he ultimately will receive a renomination. Mr. Littauer and his friends ob ject to the submission of the matter to the State committee. The Montgomery and War ren County men say that if it is not so sub mitted the deadlock will continue, HORSES TRY TO BOARD CAR. A DOZEN PERSONS HURT IN RUNAWAY ONE WOMAN MAY DIE. A dozen persons were injured, three so badly as to need medical attendance, in a panic on a crowded First-ave. car yesterday, when the horses drawing a Twenty-eighth-st. car were frightened by a band, and, running away, tried to get aboard the Belt Line car. Some Italian musicians on the way to Mulberry-st. to take part in the celebration tor St. Recco, reached Second-ave. and Twenty-eighth-st. just as a car came along the street. The horses jumped, breaking the traces, and dashed down the street with the harness lashing their flanks. They reached First-ave. as a southbound open car came along. The driver could not stop, ner could he cross the street ahead of the runaways. The Belt Line car was well filled. and thers was an instant panic. Men. women and chil dren rushed to get out. They had hardly leaped from their seats when the horses struck the car. Both tried to get into the aisles be tween the seats. The first one made a jump which landed him well on board. His mate struck a stanehion and only got his fore feet into the car.

MR. MORRIS LIKELY TO WIN NO FIGHT LOOKED FOR ON THE QUES TION OF REPRESENTATION. by the Assembly district plan. The friends of Robert C. Morris, president of the Republican County Committee, last night announced that at least twenty-five of the thirty-five members of the executive committee would stand by Mr. Morris to-day in his deter mination to establish the system of having the election district stand as the unit of representa= tion in nominating conventions. The question will come up to-day, when the executive com= mittee meets to issue the primary statement. If there is any objection to the plan, it is ex= pected that it will come from L. E. Quigg, who holds the proxy of George R. Bidwell, of the XIXth District. Several months ago, when Mr. Morris proposed that the executive committee adopt the election district plan, he was opposed by Mr. Quigg, and the vote on the question was a tie. Secretary Manchester has prepared two calls for the primaries. One of them is the old style call, stating that the delegates shall be chosen The other is in accordance with the views of President Morris. The committee will take its choice. There may te a fight, but the Quigg men say there will not. Ex-Senator Gibbs appeared upon the scene last night as the bearer of an olive branch. He counselled moderation, saving that the question of representation was not worth fighting about, and that it would make the executive committee look childish to squabble about the question. The rules of the county committee provide as follows: The units of representation for electign of mem bers of the Republican County Committee and of delegates te alli conventions representing peirtical divisions larger than an assembly district shall be the several Assembly districts embraced in the county of New-York in said political division, as the case may be. The unit of representation for the election of delegates to Assembly district conventions and As sembly district committees shall be the several election districts of the Assembly district. Where a portion of an Assembly district is within the po litical division for which the committee or conven= tion is elected, such pertion shall be deemed to be an Assembiy district for the purpose of representa tion. and the rules and regulations applying to an Assembly district shall in all things apply to such portion of an Assembly district. The argument in faver of the Assembly dis~ trict plan is that the convention is likely to be small, and more easily handled. For this reason, it is said, the district leader likes the old plan, as he can practically dictate the makeup of the delegations. The election district plan, on the other hand, is designed to let in any one who can get in on his merits from the various elections districts. Such delegates are prone, at times, to “break loose” and cause the district leader trouble. The friends of the old style say that the election district system would make a Congress district convention so large that it would take an hour and a half to call the roll. President Morris has looked up the new law, and is satisfied that the spirit of it demands the adoption of the election district as the unit of representation. Secretary Manchester said last night at the Fifth Avenue Hotel thar a motion whuld BE offered. and probably would prevail. to have the meeting of the executive committee an open

one. The meeting of the county executive commit tee will be preceded by a perfunctory meeting of the executive committee of the city com mittee at 11 o'clock. The city committee's ex ecutive committee is also required to issue a primary statement for the electicn of members of the city committee for 19M. This committee represents all the boroughs. THE FIGHT AGAINST WANMAKER. meetin The Progressive Republican Club ot the XVth Assembly District. which is conducting the fight against George W. Wanmaker as leader, met last night at the clubrooms, No. 341 West Fortysev enth-st. The general temper of the meeting seemed to be that Mr. Wanmaker had missed his vocation. Wiliam 3. Reynolds addressed the au dience of about fifty. saying that their present leader was “in with Plunkirt” and disregardful of their interests. Mr. Reynolds is the president of the club. S. W. Kohn alse spoke, as did H. Ober tubbesing. chairman of the Citizens Union for the district and oresident of the New West Athletie Club. Mr. Kohn drew lessons from his defeat in the Alderman contest. “When Wanmaker saw I was winning,” said he, “he offered to help me. We divided the district into an east and a west half. He took the west half was defeated in the west half only. And even so, 1 was beaten by under #9 votes in a district that is supposed to go 2 w¥) Democratic.’ 2 HARD ROW FOR GRIGGS Tey HOE. Chairman Griggs of the Democratic Congress Campaign Committee, who has made several at tempts to arouse enthusiasm on the part of local Democrats to warrant the starting of a campaign headquarters at the Hoffman House, went away disgusted yesterday, and the clerks at the Heoff man House said last night that he had abandoned the idea of having a headquarters. Mr. Griggs has had “hard sledding” in his project of establishing a headquarters similar to that presided over by Congressman Babcock in the St. James Building. Somehow or other, he failed to strike a sympathetic chord in the hearts of such men as William C. Whitney, and it was said last night that Lewis Nixon himself had allowed his enthusiasm for a Congress campaign headwguarters to cool. Mr. Nixon is at Saratoga. hobnobbing with Tammany men. Mr. Griggs thinks that Edward M. Shepard, who was de feate.l by Mayor Low a vear ago, would make a good candidate for President in 124. He did net venture an opinion on the probability that Mr, Shepard, if nominated, would have to answer the charge of the Bryan men that he is a trust lawyer and that he repudiated the Chicago platform, so far as it related to free silver.

“Do you know,” said Mr. Griggs, “that that man Devery is being watched and talked about the country over? Why, the last time I went to Georgia from here, evervbody 1 met said: ‘Been to New-York. have you? Say. how is Devery get Po ting on? fought to get out.

She fell, and one of the horse's hoofs struck her in the head. cutting the sealp and possibly fracturing “the skull Dr. Frederick A. Carpenter, of No. 341 West Twenty-sixth-st. rescued her and carried her to the sidewalk. A hasty examina tion showed him that she was seriously injured, and, without waiting for the arrival of the ambulance, he carried the unconscious woman to Bellevue Hospital. There it was feared that she was in such a serious condition that the coroner's office was asked to take her ante mortem statement.

Next to Miss Costello was Peter Cusick, thirty one years old, of No. 20 Mangin-st. He joined the rush for the street, but could not escape the horse. The horse struck him in the back ana he was knocked down. He was cut about the body and received a severe contusion of the head. He was taken to Bellevue in the ambu lance.

CONFESSED TO MURDER. NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD VERMOXT YOUTH IMPLICATES HIMSELF AND WIFE OF DEAD MAN. Bennington, Vt. Aug. 15.—A startling story was brought out to-day at the inquest held before Jus tice Shurtleff into the Jeath cf Marcus Rogers, whose body was found in the Walloomsac River hers yesterday, when Levi Perham, aged nineteen, confessed that the man had been murdered, and implicated himself and the wife of the dead man as the participants in the crime. Levi Perham, his brother, Boyd, twenty-four years old; Mrs. Rogers and Miss Stella Bates were all placed under arrest as the result of the confession, the Bates woman, it is alleged, having obtained the chloroform with which the victim was first ren dered unconscious.

Rogers separated from his wife several months ago and went to work for his brother at Hoosic Corners, his wife, it is alleged, having since been living here with another man. Rogers had his life insured for $0 for his wife's benefit, and this fact had a most important bearing upon the hus band's death. Rogers left Hoosic Falls last Tuesday morning for Bennington, was seen up to p. m., and not again until his body was found in the river Thurs day morning. The bedy was brought to the bank of the river and the face was found to be covered with scratches, while there was a severe bruise over the right eyebrow. The left ear was badly torn. Rogers was known 10 have had $3 or $24 in money with him when he left Hoosic Falls, but when his pockets were examined after being taken from the river, they contained a little over 32, be sides his insurance papers and a silver watch. The fact that the lungs were full of air led to the general belief that the man had been foully dealt with, and because of the unfriendly relations said to have existed between the dead man and his wife, Mrs. Rogers was placed under surveil Jance and an inquest was ordered. A hat was founé near the river, pinned to which was a note purporting te have been written by Rogers, in which the writer said that he had ended his own life, as there was nothing further to live for. The inguest was held this afterncon before Jus tice Shurtleff, at which eight or nine witnesses gave testimony as to the relations between Rogers and his wife, their frequent quarrels, the move ments of Rogers, ete., but the climax was reached when the Perham brothers, Levi and Boyd, were placed on the stand. Boya, the elder, was first examined, and to the amazement of those in at tendance, directly charged his brother and Mrs. Rogers with the crime of murder. In his story Bord Perham sald that the deed had been under consideration for several weeks. He said Mrs. Rogers approached him a few days ago and offered to give him the amount of the insurance on her husband ($58) if he would go to Hoosic Corners and do away with him. He refused point blank to have anything to de with such an undertaking. He did, however, know all that had since occurred.

i

Failing te enlist him in her service, Boyd said that Mrs. Rogers approached his vounger brother, Levi, and exerted such an influence over him that the latter consented to lure Rogers to Bennington, where 2 trap had been set tor him. Rogers, he said. was enticed to Morgan's Grove, where on the evening of Tuesday he met his wife and l.evi Per ham. The meeting was apparently a friendly one, ard. under the impression tnat his companions were showing him a trick with ropes, Rogers al lowed them to bind him, hand and foot. When in this helpless condition they chloreformed him and threw him into the river. To create the im pression that the man had committed suicide they wrote 8 note to that effect, signed Rogers's name to it, and pinned it to his ha. which was hung

upon 2 tree near the place where it was found by the parties who discovered the body on Tuesday Perham’s story created a tremendous sensation, and the excitement was in no wise modified when Levi Perham took the stand at the conclusion of his brother's recital and confessed that all that had been revealed against himself was true. There was no need for further witnesses, and the inquest was closed and the arrests followed imme fartelny CLAFFY TELLS NOTHING. THOMPSON, TOO, DENIES ANY KNOWL FDGE OF BARTHOLIN MURDER. Chicago, Aug. 15.—Little progress was made by the police to-fiay in the Bartholin murder. In gpector Hunt was convinced that he would obtain jmpertant information from John Claffy, who was positively identified by Mrs. Tellerday as one of the men she saw with the laundry wagon on the morning following the night ot the disappearance of Minnie Mitchell. Claffy has been accustomed to a supply of liquor, and the inspector was of the opinion that he would weaken after he had been deprived of his allowance for a few days. Late this afternoon he concluded that Claffy should be about ready to tell what he knew, and had him called into the office. The resuit was a faflure. Claffy not only refused to admit that he was one of the men seen by Mrs. Tellerday, but declared with great positiveness that he was not there at all When asked how he explained Mrs. Tellerday's identification of him, he replied that it was not for him to explain it. She had simply made a mistake, and that was her affair and not his. He insisted that he was at home in bed at the time, and denied any connection with the case. The police could make nothing out of him, and he was locked up again Inspector Hunt said after the interview: 1 thought that we would t the story from Claffy, but we did not get a single thing. He de nied everything, and stuck to his denials. 1 asked him where he was that night, and he said he was at home in bed. 1 asked him if he had not gone to bed intoxicated, and if while in that condition he might not have done some things he cannot now recall, and he said he was sober that night. The witness Edwards, who arrived during the day from Denver, was able to do no more than strengthen the suspicion of the police regarding the guilt of Thompson. He recited no facts that bore directly upon the killing of either Mrs. Bar tholin or of Minnie Mitchell. Oscar Thompson still declines to tell the police anything, and insists that he has told all he knows ard ‘hat he cannot remember where he was or what he did on the night of the murder of the Mitchell girl. GATES ASKS INJUNCTION. FEARFUL THAT OSGOOD PEOPLE WILL NOT ALLOW PROXY VOTES. Denver, Aug. 15. —Application was filed in the United States Circuit Court to-day by John W. Gates, James Blair, John J. Miichell and Arthur J. Singer against the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com pany, John C. Osgood, Jchn A. Kebler, Alfred C. Cass, Dennis Suliivan and David C. Beaman, for injunction 10 restrain the defendants from pre venting the plaintiffs from casting, counting and having considered the votes which, they allege, they are entitled to cast at the annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and of ficers of the corporation.

The complaint recites that eof 258178 shares of stock outstanding, the plaintiffs own and control by proxies 151,603 shares, giving them a clear ma jority, but it is expected that unless the court grants them protection they will not be allowed to cast their votes, because of conspiracy and cecl lusion on the part of the officers and other share holders. Numerous written demands, the com plaint says, have been made upon the secretary of the company, David C. Beaman, to furnish the bocks of the company in which a list of the stock holders and the number of shares held by them are kept, but none of the demands has been complied with. Relying upon that fact, the plaintiffs allege that the defendants have failed and neglected to keep in the State of Colorado any such hook, as required by the statute, and that the only stock books kept by the defendant corporation, showing the names and addresses and holdings of share holders, are the regular transfer book, the stock ledger and the registry book, kept, respectively, by the Knickerbocker Trust Company and the Atlantic Trust Company in New-York, and at the annual meetings 1i8ts of the stockholders were taken from such books and these furnished the basis and data to determine names and holdings of all stockhold ers who should have the rizht to vote at the elec tion of officers.

The complaint alleges that the officers of the company have transferred 10 eighteen persons, mostly employes of the company, five shares of stock each, with the evident object of packing the meeting and fraudulently controlling the election officers. It is alleged that ihe defendants deny right of Arthur J. Singer and Willlam HH. Vaile to vote. on the grounds that their names do ‘mot appear on the stock books, and that the de.

LOAN ASSOCIATION MAY GO INTO RECEIV: ER'S HANDS—CULPRIT, CITY TREASURER, PENNILESS FROM RESTITUTION. el a Nr ut rr I ral I TT man oy EL CT Je MAB, C0 PENNILESS FROM RESTITUTION. Passalc, Aug. 15 (Special).—William Malcolm, City Treasurer, and for twenty years secretary of the Passaic Mutual Loan and Building Asso ciation, the largest and oldest association in the city, last night admitted to the board of direc tors that there was a shortage in his accounts of that association of over £100,000. The Mutual association is composed of over six hundred of the poorer people of the city. It did a tre mendous business, and last year its asseis were over $500,000, Mr. Malcolm was reputed to be worth over $100,000, and had the respect of every citizen. A few months ago there came rumors that the association was in difficulties, but few would believe it. Anything that had Malcolm's name attached to it was considered gilt edged. Now was told last night that he would be arrested. He turned over to the trustees named by the association three months ago every dollar he had in the world, including his big stationery store and his own home, and all property be longing to his wife. These footed up to SRO,L00, and his shortage at that time was said to be about an equal amount. It had been discov ered by State Examiner J. D. Conkiin, of Paterson, who made an investigation of the books. The announcement at that time by Mr. Conklin was not believed by the board of di rectors of the association. Mr. Maicolm, when asked regarding his shortage, said:

“I have never reaped one cents worth of benefit from the money apparently missing. 1 made errors in bookkeeping that resulted in the association reaping the profit through increased dividenas and larger receipts. That's where the money went. I have made good as far as 1 can, and am to-day penniless, for the benefit of the association.” Then the association re-elected him secretary, though many stockholders howled. Mr. Mal colm was forced cut after a few weeks more, and F. B. Conant elected in his place. Last night at a private meeting of the directors Mr. Con ant reported that since the examiners had turned over the books to Mr. Malcolm he had found more shortages amounting to somewhere near $20,000. The shortages were said to be in accounts marked closed which were really still in force. Startling statemenis were made about erasures and accounts cut out of PROGKS. Mr. Malcolm was sent for. He broke down when a demand was made for an explanation, He said he had none to make, but finally cried: “Do what vou wish with me! 1 have given you every dollar I have in the world. 1 admit that 1 have been at fault. Arrest me if you will. It will kill me; that's all!” Then he broke down and cried. He was led to his home and kept under surveillance ail night. To-day no one had the heart to cause his arrest.

When asked what had become of the money, Mr. Malcolm said he did not know. While ad mitting that some of the money had been used, he still clings to the statement that he made errors in bookkeeping. He says he does not know where the money went. The stockholders deny that they ever reaped any benefits. The State examiners are in charge of the association, and the stockholders are in a state of excite ment, as the association is not solvent, and will be probably placed in receivership this week. Examiners are now going over the books of the city, which have been found to be badly mud dled. So far no shortage has been found.

TWO OTHERS MAKE UNSUCCESSFUL E¥ FORT TO SAVE HIM FROM EAST RIVER EDDIES. In spite of the efforts of two boys who tried to save him, Charles Kracka, eleven years old, of No. 1,366 Avenue A, was drowned last even ing in the Fast River, off Seventy-seventh-st. While playing with a number of other children at the end of the pier at East Seventy-third-st, he tripped over the stringpiece and fell into the water. The strong current carried the boy a block away before he rose to the surface. At Seventy-sixth-st. several boys were swimming. Willlam Kratz, fifteen years old, of No. 419 East Seventy-sixth-st.,, and Peter Flynn, the same age, of No. 438 East Eightieth-st., had just climbed on to the pier there when Kracka was carried by.

These boys knew that at Seventy-seventh-st. conflicting currents form a series of danzerous whirlpools, but they dove in at once and swam after Kracka, rapidly gaining on him till they reached the eddies. They were within six feet of him when he was caught in a whirlpool, which swept him to the centre and carried him down. Kratz and Flynn dove in a last des perate effort to save him, but were unsuccess ful. They were thrown out by the eddy in stead of being drawn down. They were com pelled to swim to Seventy-ninth-st. before they could work their way to land.

E. WESLEY HALL WOULD BE HERO. REPORTS THAT HE STOPPED RUNAWAY TEAM WHICH DRIVER TURNED INTO ELEVATED PILLAR. While Mrs. A. J. Champlain, Miss G. Tindall and Miss S. R. Tindall, of CornwallontheHud son, who arrived from Europe on the steamship Filrst Bismarck, yesterday, were being driven to the Grand Central Station, the team drawing their carriage ran away. The driver, Michael Sheehan, of No. 26 Hudson Place, Hoboken, saved the women and himself by driving the team into an elevated railroad pillar, so that one horse was ¢n each side of it, and, though all were shaken up, no one was seriously hurt. Captain Chapman's wardman, E. Wesley Hall, reported to his station that he had stopped the team after being dragged half a block.

Sheehan does not know what frightened the team, but at Sixth-ave. and Twelfth-st. the horses tried to run away. They dashed through the avenue at terrific speed, while Sheehan tried to pull them in and at the same time hold three trunks on the box beside him. He saw that the team was getting the better of him, and, as the street was crowded and there was every chance for a dangerous accident, turned the horses into an elevated road pillar. They stopped with such suddenness as to knock the pole apart and send Sheehan flying over their heads. The women screamed from fright and excite ment. but were not injured. Sheehan was bad ly bruised. The women tock another carriage to the station. A man who saw the accident, and knows Hall well, says that the wardman was not on the scene at all. He was much surprised to find that Hall in his report at the Mercer-st. station made himself a hero. MAN WHO BSCAPED FROM JAIL CAUGHT WHEN APPROACHING HER HOME.

CONSENT OF CONGRESS NECESSARY. These reports of revenue collections and the remarkably good health showing are, of course, gratifying to the authorities in Washington, but they do not settle the question of the power of the Cuban Government to make a bond issue of such proportions as that proposed without first securing the consent of the United States Congress. The Tribune's contention that Con gress was the only power in this country to supervise Cuban debt making is now conceded by everybody here except Minister Quesada. Although refusing to discuss the subject pub licly, Secretary Shaw of the Treasury «nd the officials of the State Department, who at one time thought it would be their joint duty to look into the loan proposition, now acknowledge by their course in refusing to interf:re that they have no authority undzr the Platt amend ment to touch the Cuban loan question. Un doubtedly however, the Platt amendment, which is a statute in this country as well as a part of the constitution of Cuba, imposas ¢n the Congress of the United States the duty to supervise Cuba's debt making power carefully. This is known to be the view of Senator Platt, of Connecticut, the author of the amendment and the recognized authority in Congress on all Cuban subjects. In a recent magazine article Mr. Platt dis tinctly stated this view of the case, and there {s no doubt that he will adhere to it with his usual firmness when Congress meets in Decem ber. That the Cuban lawmakers are dubicus of their power to issue bonds without first get ting the consent of the United States Congress is shown by the fact that in the bond act now pending it Is provided that President Palma shall have six months in which to place the loan. In other words, the Cuban Congress fore sees that in all probability the United States Congress, under- the reserved authority of the Platt amendment, will assert its right to ex amine the ability of Cuba to carry such a large loan at this time, and, therefore, the six months clause was put into the act. What the Congress of the United States will do is a matter of speculation. At its recent ses sion it vielded to the demands of powerful in terests that are plotting to pluck Cuba, and as there are excellent reasons to believe that these interests are promoting the loan scheme as a part of thir general plan of loot and spoliation, it is conceivable that they will be strong enough in both houses again next winter to force ap proval of the bond issue.

LEWIS, OF UTICA AN AC TIVE ASPIRANT FOR NOMINATION Albany, Aug. 15 (Speclal).—Republican politicians in the State capital have heard with interest that William Lewis, of Utica, has become a candi date for the Republican nomination for State Seno ator in the XXXIVth Senate District, whosa boundaries are those of Oneida County. At pres ent the Senate District is represented by Garry A. Willard. Republican, of Boonville, the Editor and proprictor of “The Boonville Herald.”

Mr. Willard has had only one term, and natur ally desires a renomination. He is openly a can didate for the Republican nemination tor Senator. For six weeks past his friends have tnouxht that he would have an opponent for the nomina tion in the person of ex-Senator Henry J. Cogge shall, of Waterville, but Mr. Coggeshall has made no effort to obtain the nomination that can be dis cerned. Now Mr. Lewis has announced his gandi dacy, and therefore Senator Willard wil! have an opponent.

Mr. Lewis has ltved in Oneida County all his life, and has a large number of friends in every part of it. He is a lawyer of large practice. He was edu cated at Whfitestona Seminary and Hamilton Col jeze, and for twenty-five years past has been en gaged in business as a lawyer in Utica. He has thus far held only one political office, that of As sistant District Attorney, under District Attorney Matteson. Mr. Lewis, in an interview announcing his candidacy for the nomination for Senator, sald: “I have definitely determined to become a candi date for this nomipation. I shall do all in my power to secure a majority of the delegates at the county convention, and hope to succeed as the party's nominee. 1 understand that the matter has been talked about more or less around the country for some time, and, in fact, a good many people have talked to me alout it, and I cannot be otherwise than gratinied at the hearty assurances of support voluntarily extended. It has been rep resented to me, and 1 believe that as Senator 1 could be of service to the cities and towns com prising this district, and if ciected it will be my ~ole and only ambition to be as good a Senator as 1 know how in the two years of my teroe'’ 1 it is said thai the contest for the Republican nomination for Senator will not get tangled up with that over the Republican nomination for Supreme Court Judge in the judictal district of which Oneida County forms a part, Oneida County already has four candidates for the judicial nomi nation, namely, Attorney General Davies, County Judge Watson T. Dunmore, Surrogate Frederick AL Calder and P. C. J. De Angelis. The statement was made here to-day that Herkimer County Re publicans will support ex-Senator A. M. Mills for the nomination for judge.

HAVANA CANAL COMPANY'S SIDE. The Havana Canal Company has issued the fol lowing statement regarding the suit recently brought against it: The action of the Gomez and Pelaez against the Havana Canal Company has been for some time threatened. An increased payment of $50.0600 above that contained in the contract was demanded by the concessionists after the company had suc ceeded In establishing the validity of the concession. To this demand the company refused to accede. The agreement on the part of the Havana Canal Company with the concessionists was made In order to float the enterprise, and immediately there after the company was incorporated at $1,000,000 capitalization, which was according to the under standing with the concessionists. Capital was pro cured, and at that time the agreed payment was about to be made to the concessionists, when it was declared by the United States Government that the concession was void. The concessionists were informed to this effect, and requested to clear the title to the concession, but they in turn stated that they were financially un able to carry on the litigation and nr ested the attorney for the company to aid them in securing its legalization. The matter was then taken to Washington, and after a controversy lasting over two years the concession was at last pronounced valid. All the expense of this controversy has been borne by the company through its attorney, as well as the making of the necessary deposits to secure the concession, and payments from time to time to the concessionists themselves. No doubt as to the valldity of the concession ter minated all the then Siar ng agreements to fur nish the necessary capital, and the company was unable to negotiate for the sale of its bonds until after the date of the order declaring the conces sion valid and extending the time for two years. The agreement with the trust company calls for the payment to the concessionists of the amount due them, out of the first moneys realized from tha sale af the bonds,

Philadelphia. Aug. 15—Owing to the crowded business of American stecl mills shipbuilding firms of this country have been compelled to order steel abroad rather than suffer the delay necessary to secure the home product. Eastern shipyards have been seriously hampered in getting angle irons, beams and plating. The New-York Shipbullding Company, of Cam den, has contracted with the Lancashire Iron Com pany, of Scotland, for 80,00 tons of manufactured material for the two Atlantic Transport liners and two bulk oil carriers recently ordered from the company. This is belleved to be the largest con tract for the manufactured material ever given to a foreign concern from an American =hlpyard.

Washington, Aug. 15.—The State Department has received two interesting Chinese proclamations, one an imperial edict issued from the throne, concern ing the raising of the war indemnity, and the other by Governor Yuan, Viceroy of Chi-Li, ordering the people to stop carrying weapons and to guard against a repetition of the Boxer trouble. The documents are not only curious, but they are im portant as showing some of the results of the war. The imperial edict shows that China is seeking to devise a plan for meeting the war indemnity, and is fearful that the heavy tax on the people will in cite them to further disorder. The edict also ac cuses the Chinese officials of “filling their own pockets” with the sums taken from the people. The edict is as follows: Concerning the various new plans for raising the new indemnity there is not a single good one among them. Edicts have repeatedly been issued on the subject, instructing the viceroys and gov ernors to deliberate on -he state of affairs and to devise satisfactory plans of action. There must be no oppression nor Irritation of the people. The throne has pity for the people and does not forget them, awake or asleep; and as a special reminder we command the viceroys and governors to do away with whatever may cause too much friction in their plans for raising the indemnity. There should not be the least needless severity which might lead to trouble. The people should be made to understand (the circumstances), so that they may be willing to do their duty gladly. Concerning the officials. In their distriets, con nected with the likin, who collect taxes, it is the more necessary that a stop be put to filling their own pockets. and that they be strictly prohibited from practising extortion. If any be found at their old tricks, only seeking to make profit for themselves, we command that they be justly impeached. so that they may be severely dealt with. There will be no leniency shown. The viceroys and governors have received great favors from the throne, and they shouid, from time to time, make investigations, with the special object of affording relief, in these hard times, and so ease the burdens of the people. Obey these instructions. Respect this. Governor Yuan, who {issues the proclamation against carrying weapons, is remembered as the efficient military governor who sought to cope with the Boxer uprising. His present proclamation against carrying firearms sounds much like these he issued warning the Boxers to remain quiet. The present purpose of disarming the people, in cluding the train bands and other organizations, is significant of the purpose to prevent the natives from having the means for carrying on an effective uprising. The proclamation is as follows: Yuan, junior guardian of the Heir Apparent, Pres ident of the Board of War, President of the Cen sorate and Viceroy of Chi-Li, issues this proclama tion for the information of the people: The private possession of weapons has hitherto been forbidden by law. In 190, during the time of the trouble, a good many weapons were left among the people, to the injury of various localities. Some time ago I laid down clear rules for giving up such arms. In case any train bands are still in posses sion of weapons, and have not complied with the law, they must at once do so and give them up, to prevent trouble. As te native Christians, in peos session of munitions of war, they must also deliver them up. No private individuai will be rmitted to carry weapons about his person, in order to dis arm suspicion and avoid trouble. Year before last the Boxers caused disturbances, killing, plundering; but these are now old scores, which should not be raked up. Aside from instructing all under my jurisdiction te comply with the above orders, I put out this proclamation, hoping that the gentry and people will take note of this and comply. Hereafter the people and the Christians must not seek to retaliate against each other or accuse each other and bring on further trouble, but be forever at peace with each other. remble and obey.

Paris, Aug. 15.—The semi-official announcement, rade after yesterday's Cabinet meeting, that the Rovalists are directing the agitation against the closing of religious schools in Brittany, has evoked considerable comment. Roman Catholic leaders and the Catholic press deny that the movement is ant{-Republican. Count Albert de Mun, who, with the Abbé Gavrand, is the guiding spirit of the re sistance in Finistdre, declares that the movement is entirely spontaneous on the part of the people themselves, and that not an act or a shout has occurred in Brittany to justify the allegation that a Royalist conspiracy exists. Count Albert de “lun says the Marseillalse has been sung everywhere, and that it is evident that the government is em barrassed by the situation, and has invented the Royalist scare in order to create a diversion. Francois Coppée in an interview expressed a simi lar opinion in more violent language. The “Patrie” says it is rumorcd that the government intended to arrest the Royalist Senator from Finistére, M. de Chamalllard. Ministerial organs assert that the government possesses curious information as to the manner in which the Breton peasants were deluded into a bellef that they could successfully resist the republic. The situation at St. Mé&en and Folgoet remains unchanged. An important pilgrimage to Folgoet tock place to lay, on the occasion of the Eeast of the Assumption, fifteen thousand people gathering from the surrounding country. Processions from St. Méen, Ploudaniel and other villages arrived there in the morning, headed by priests bearing crosses and banners and chanting. Admiral de Cuverville, the Abb& Gayraud, who is a member of the Chamber of Deputies, and Coun cillor Soubigon have addressed a protest to the Premier, M. Combes, on account of the allegations of Royalism, saying: We protest nst the ical Chg the a aan ia ra se nant public conscience.

MANY OF THEM OF LITTLE STRENGTH MAXY OF THEM OF LITTLE STRENGTH— TWENTY-THREE SPLENDID FIGHTING CRAFT. [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBTNE.]

{BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.) Washington, Aug. 15.—Very instructive is the monthly progress report on the degree of com pletion on August 1 of the fifty-two United States war vesels now under ‘contract, issued to day by Rear Admiral Bowles, chief constructor of the navy. Notably, it emphasizes the exas perating slowness with which naval increase is being accomplished, and presents figures which will appeal with great force to the law makers at the next session of Congress. In August, 190), there were seventy naval vessels under construction. In August, 1801, the number had fallen to sixty, and now it is only fifty-two. More than half of these were included in the seventy of two years ago, and most of them are also vessels of practically no material strength to the fleet, consisting as they do of torpedo boats, a type that was of little use in the Span ish war and is rapidly falling inte disfavor among sll the maritime powers.

Of the fifty-two vessels now building, fourteen sre first class battleships and armored cruisers, unsurpassed by any ships thus far designed abroad, and nine are fine, fast protected cruisers of the class named for cities, which have proved so valuable in war and in peace, protecting American interests in all parts of the globe. All nine are better ships than the best of those with which Dewey went te Manila Bay. These, with the armored ships, will some day add twenty-three splendid fighting units to the navy. Of the remaining twenty-nine vessels on the building list, the least said the better for the sensitive national pride. Four are single tur ret monitors, exactly like those built at the ciose of the war between the States, that are enly heard of occasionally as they are sold to junkmen. This quartet was forced on the Navy Department by Congress in the summer of 1897 bv a powerful lobby as mounts for so-called Gathmann guns, with the idea that one each could defend Boston, New-York, Philadelphia and San Francisco. On the army's exposure of the gun's worthiessness at Sandy Hook, it was decided to put the regulation naval rifles in the turrets, but the only use to which naval officers now contemplate putting the monitors is for floating clubhouses for naval militia organiza tions. Of the twenty-five torpedo boats eleven are destroyers, which, between periods of ex tended repairs—for they are as delicate as ~hronometers—may be more useful as dispatch noats than their smaller precursors were in 1848, and seven are submarines, also children of the lobby, thoroughly discountenanced by experi snced and progressive officers—vessels that must rely more for their moral influence on an enemy than for any actual performance their inventors nave sanely claimed for them. Up to the pres ant time their promoters have carefully re trained from delivering them to the government, which has paid out the people's money for them, and no opportunity has been afforded to test their mysterious qualities.

Contractors are apparently unconcerned over the heavy penalties which were imposed, but remitted with singular uni formity by Secretary Long. The delays are variously attributed to the rise in steel due to general prosperity, to strikes, to excessive scru tiny on the part of government inspectors of material, and finally. to changes in plans during onstruction. The chief sinners in this instance are the submarines, which were all contracted for twenty-four months ago, on August 2J, 1908. to be delivered in eight months. Their huils could be built in any of the hundreds of oiler works in this country, nine-tenths of their fittings are purchasable out of thousands of hardware stores, their machinery ig all of the ordinary mercantile design kept in stock by dozens of selling agents, and there is nothing about the boats to render it difficult to build them in large quantities or singly in six months. The Moran Brothers at Seattle signed the contract for their battleships seventeen months ago, but they have done no work yet, so far as the Navy Department can ascertain, as appears from the report. As they were four years building the torpedo boat Rowan, their only previous naval experience, the author itieg do noi expect to get the Nebraska in com mission in much less than ten years. The reia tive delinquency and promptness of the ship vards are best exhibited by the progress cn pro tected cruisers, of which the first six were rontracted for on December 14 1889, all to be delivered in eighteen months. At the present rate they will take doubic the time, for prog ress, as completion is approached, is much glower than in the earlier stages, the average battleship requiring over a year to make up the iast 10 per cent after 90 is reached.

The fact that there i8 not a vessel now under »ontract that is not over a vear behindhand not only discourages Congress in authorizing new ships, but notably increases their cost to the government. A serious item in this increased cost is due to the necessity for rigid inspection of all work, which keeps officers away from is in responsible for the exceedingly dangerous ex NEW-YORE DAILY TRIBUNE.

i FEATURE OF FOREIGN COMMERCE.

GROWTH IN IMPORTATION OF MANUFACT URERS' MATERIALS ABOVE OTHER PRODITCTS.

PRODUCTS. Washington, Aug. 16 (Speciai).—The most remark able feature of the foreign commerce of the United States for the fiscal year just ended is the growth in the importation ef manufacturers’ materials and the increasing share which such materials form in the total imports. Twenty vears ago they barely made up one-third of our imports, but they have steadily advanced until they now constitute very nearly one-half of the total. At the same ume other imports show practically no increase. A table, showing the importations by great classes in each year from 1880 to 192, is printed in the annual report of the chief of the Treasury Bureau of Statistics and affords an opportunity 10 study the growth in imports of manufacturers’ materials and the growing share the; form in the tota! im ports. In this table the imports are distributed in to five great groups, namely, articles of food and animals; articles in a crude condition which enter inte the various processes of domestic industry; articies wholly or partly manufactured for use as materials in the manufactures and mechanic arts; arucies manufactured ready for consumpuon and articles of voluntary use, luxuries, etc.

Combining the two classes of articles for use iu manufacturing—those in a crude condiuon and those wholly or partly manufactured for use as materials in the manufactures and mechanic arts— it is found that the total value of importations for use in manufacturing, which amounted in 181 to $217.57T1,561, were, in 1802, S3I8.776,681, or practically double those of i881. They formed, in 188], 35.4 per cent of the total imports, and in 132 46.36 per cent of the total imports. This phenomenal growth be comes even more striking when it is compared with the growth in importation of all other articles than those for use in manufacturing. The table in the report of the chief of the Bureau of Statis tics, which sets forth the imports by years of the great groups above referred to, shows that the total value of imports other than manufacturers’ materials amounted in 1851 to $433,047,448, and in 1902 to $484.550.290, and formed in 1831 $6.56 per cent of the total imports, and in 12 but 33.64 per cent of the total imports. Thus, while importations of manufacturers’ materials have practically doubled from 1881 to 1%, importations of articles other than manufacturers’ materials have increased but about 12 per cent.

i

i

I

i

Comparing conditions in 1902 with thosé of 1852, there is an increase of about 3 per cent in manu factureres’ materials and an actual decrease of about 10 per cent in other imports. In 1882 the importations oO1 manufacturers’ materials were $78,319,966, against $418,776.6881 in 1902, and the im ports of articles other than manufacturers’ ma terials were, In 1892, $535.281,379, and in 1307 $484.0500.

i

i

i 3%). These figures seem especially interesting, in view of the fact that the total imports of 1902 were larger than any year in the history of our for eign commerce. i i

i

Even these figures, however, do not indicate in all cases, at least, the actual growth In manufact

grers’ materials, because of the fact that they are i figures of value only, and in many cases prices have so much failen that the value figures of 1%, wher compared with those of earlier periods, 40 not fully indicate the growth in quantity imported. The re port of the Chief of the Bureau of Statistics gives in conjunction with the tauvle nitherto referred to, another table showing the quantity of principal articles imported. It shows, for example, that, while the value of raw silk imported in 1902 {8 only three and one-half times as much as in 1880, the quantity is more than five times as much. The to tal importations of unmanufactured silk in 18& amounted to 2.362.246 pounds, valued at $12,024,699 while that of 192 was 14,234,826 pounds, valued al $42.635.351. In India rubber the quantity importec has increased from less than 17.000.000 pounds ir 1880 to over X.900,000 in 1902; fibres from 118,024 tons i in 1880 to 305,72. tons in 1%2: un. from 32,0650, OA pounds to 78.000,600 pounds; cotton (Including waste) from 3.500.000 pounds to 113,000,000 pounds.

Washington, Aug. 15.—An anomalous situation exists in Guam in reference to the administration of justice, and Commander Schroeder, the Gov ernor of the island, has been forced to appeal to the Navy Department for instructions as to the mit of his powers. Congress has not legislated tor the island, and the will of the Naval Governor has been practically supreme. When the island

was turned oyer to the Navy Department and Captain Leary was appointed Governor, he decided to continue the old Spanish laws in operation, ex cept such as should be modified by his direction or that of the Navy Department. Under the old sys tem of laws thus put in force there existed prac tically a single court on the isiand, the Ccurt of First Instance, which corresponds to the lowest udicial tribunal in this country. Under the Spanish aw an appeal was allowed from the decisions of this court to the Court of Cassation in the Philip pines, with provision for a final appeal in certain class of cases to the government at Madrid. But with the advent of American control in the Philip ines this power of appeal was cut off, and the Secisions of the Court of First Instance practically stand as the decisions of the court of last resort. Some time ago a native was convicted in this court of murder, and was sentenced to be executed. The evidence seemed to leave some question of his guilt, and Governor Schroeder was appealed to. Being at a loss as to what action he could take, he advised the Secretary of the Navy of the situation and asked for instructions. There are said to be other cases which involve the rights of American citizens who have been tried in Guam unger the Spanish law. which, among other things, does not provide for trial by jury. to which Americans are entitled under the constitution. The whole subject ts being carefully considered by the Navy Depart ment. The judge advocate general, it is under stood, will shortly render an opinion on which

The French architect who performed a like service for his government, and vho was engaged to plan and construct the building for the United States, has gone to France, and will not return. As his plans were not altogether satisfactory, Minister onger has asked that a competent architect be sent feom the United States. The selection of a man will be made soon.

Ryan, the suspended chief of the Bureau of Construction and Repairs of the Fire Depart n.ent, began yesterday before Fire Commis sioner Sturgis. Ryan entered a plea of not guilty to each of the ten specifications, which include charges of accepting inferior material, allowing repairs to private vehicles of Chief Croker and Commissioner Scannell, and making faise entries in department books. Chief Croker was an interested observer of the proceedings for a short time. He broke into his vacation at Good Ground. Long Island, on the chance of answering questions at the trial l

H The most important testimony of the day was that of John M. Allen, the Chief Exam iner of accounts, who said that some of the records of the department were mutilated. In Volume 21 of the harness shop record, pages 447 to 3% were torn out, This was Commis sioner Scanneil’s account. The last entry on the preceding page was dated September 7 1868S. As to overtime work, the witness said that he found numerous instances of work being done after regular hours, for which the men received double pay. In one instance sixty-four men in the harness department were Kept at work on Saturday afternoon for six hours, but the rec erds did not show what work was done on that day. He offered a typswritten statement, <on sisting of four pages of items, detailing work done for Commissioner Scannell, and one page detailing work done for Fire Chief Croker, 1 Commissioner Sturgis asked him: “Is {it not a fact that work was done on vehicles the character of which showed that the work could not possibiy have been done for Messrs. Scan neil and Croker as officials?”

i “It was,” was the answer, James Dixon, of No. 71 Barrow-st., an em ploye of the Brewster Carriage Company, and an expert on woods used in carriage construc tion, examined numerous samples of wood bought by Ryan. As piece after plece was handed to him, he made such remarks as, “It's the poorest I ever saw.” “Very poor.” Nearly all the samples were condemned. The next witness called was Willtam H. Me sick, of No. 31 Bedford-st., Brooklyn. He, un der the Strong administration, was foreman in the repair department, but is now employed there as a wheelwright. He said that the requi sition for materials called for first class timber, but that within the last two years that furnished had been of inferior guality. Within the last three months, since the suspension of Chief Ryan, the department had purchased two lots of first class ash at less than had been paid be fore for poor stuff. The hearing will be continued this morning. QUIET RESTORED IN SIAM. UPRISING ENDED AND AMERICAN INTER ESTS SAFE.

VASSAR. NN. J. DIPLOMATIC CHANGES: DR. DAVID J. HILL MAY BE MADE AM BASSADOR TO GERMANY, AND BEL LAMY STORER ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF STATE. ers i a Bay hen he td Mi te ATTY wy TIE TRInTrys [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.] NT ir I I TN a a TE ae TT Washington, Aug. 15.—It is persistently re ported at the State Department that the post of Ambassador to Germany to succeed Andrew D. White, whose resignation takes effect in No vember, has been tendered to and accepted by Dr. David Jayne Hill, Assistant Secretary of State. In fact, subordinate officials at the State Department are freely discussing this topic as settled, and assert that Dr. Hill, who is now at Nantasket Beach, will not actually resume his former duties here, but that he will wind up a few important affairs that were referred to him by Secretary Hay before he returns to Washington in the fall, and will then turn over his office to his successor. The same reports connect the name of Beilamy Storer, Minister to Spain, with the vacancy that will be created in the State Department by the appoirtment of Dr. Hill to the Diplomatic Corps. These reports are being circulated at the department with such detail as to other changes contemplated in the diplomatic service for the near future that they are finding some credence here in spite of the understanding some time ago that on the retirement of Mr. White from the em bassy at Berlin Mr. Storer was to be promoted to that post from Madrid. It is known that Mr. Storer is anxious to be relieved from duty at Madrid, and a few weeks ago it was generally believed that he would be sent to Berlin; but it appears that, for reasons satisfactory to him self, Mr. Storer has signified his willingness to succeed Dr. Hill as Assistant Secretary of State and thus create a vacancy in the mission to Spain, which the Pregident can fill either by transferring some one now in the service to that desirable post or giving the billet to a person not now connected with the Diplomatic Corps. rr The resignation of George von L. Meyer as Ambassador to Italy will soon take effect, and this will make an opening for Charlemagne Tower, who desires to be transferred from St. Petersburg to another post of equal importance. Ambassador Tower, it is known, would greatly prefer the post at Berlin to that at Rome, but it is supposed that he would accept the latter place as the best compromise in sight if the President sends Dr. Hill to Berlin. In the chang »s which this shift will cause it is be lieved that Henry White, first secretary of the United States Embassy at London, will realize his long cherished ambition to occupy the chief place in one of this country’s European mis sions, and that he will be promoted either to Madrid as minister or to St. Petersburg as ambassador. Who will be chosen for the va cancy that would thus be made is not known.

REPORTS MAY BE INCORRECT. It is possible, of course, that there is no solid foundation for the rumor as to Dr. Hill's as signment to Berlin, although it is regarded here as significant that the subject is so freely discussed by minor officials at the State Depart ment who are supposed to enjoy his confidence. Dr. Hill was appointed to his present place by President McKinley when Judge William R. Day was transferred from the State Department to the federal bench in Ohio. At the time of his appointment he was connected in an im portant capacity with the university at Roches ter. N. Y., and he from the first displayed an aptitude which has given him high rank among the President’s advisers on foreign He has an ample fortune, and will thus be abl to maintain himself at a Eurepean court in manner befitting the station and in harmony with the customs of the Old World.

It is said here that when Ambassador White is relieved at Berlin in November he not immediately return to the Tnited States, but that it is his expressed intention to spend the winter in the Seuth of France for the benefi§ of hic health.

This regiment and the three proposed §nfantry regiments will compose the National ‘Gua 1 of the State of Connecticut in the future. The First Company was recruited solely from Young men who have never scen military service. The Second Company was formerly Company D, of the Third Infantry, transferred to the artillery branch by order of the Adjutant General after formal application of the company.

MN i i a a Sl i YACHT CLUB EXPELS COMMODORE Because he complained publicly on many oc casions that he had not received a prize won by his yacht Gladys, and because he failed to take advantage of three opportunities that were given to him to explain, Commodore Edward F. Glover of the Knickerbocker Yacht Club was on Thursday night expelled from membership in the Brooklyn Yacht Club. The resolution ex pelling Mr. Glover, which Commodore Cook of the Brooklyn Yacht Club said was passed unanimously, was as follows: Whereas, Charges have been duly preferred against Mr. E. F. Glover, a member of this yacht club, and he having admitted in writing that he made the statement attributed to him, be it Resolved. That the check for dues and resig nation of Mr. Glover be returned to him, and the said E. F. Glover be and hereby is expelled from membership in the Brooklyn Yacht Club. The question was discussed by the Brooklyn Yacht Club for several months, and the action on Thursday night was taken with regret. Early in May Commodore Glover is said to have had MOUNT H This afternnor CONNECTICUT COAST ARTILLERY.

Ie said that the British wouid retaliate. The message was received just as Vice-President Leeds of the American company was about to address the lodge. Two weeks ago the men voted down a propo sition to accept a wage cut of 25 per cent, in order to permit the company to take a big contract from Wales. The concern at once shut down dozens of works. This week several lodges reconsidered the action, and the firm at once ordered the plants in operation. Tomor row night Vice-President Leeds of the tinplate company will address the men of Martin's Ferry Lodge, and ]Jater Newcastle, Penn., and explain their mistake in rejecting the plan. El wood (Ind.)

CAVANAUGH, OF EASTON, TOLD CLERK HE WOULD SAIL.

A letter received here to-day by George Hohl from his son Frank, an employe in Wanamaker's New-York store, who formerly lived in Easton, and who knows Mr. Cav anaugh well, says that Cavanaugh was in the store Thursday morning of last week, the day he disappeared, and purchased wearing apparel valued at $50.

He told Frank he was about to sail that day on the Hamburg-American Line. A boy was sent from the store to carry Mr. Cavanaugh’'s bundle to the pier in Hoboken, but when a short distance from the store the boy was dismissed and Mr. Cavanaugh took the bundle himself. CONFERENCE OF GLASS WORKERS AGREEMENT MUST BE REACHED OR THERE WILL BE A STRIKE. Pittsburg, Aug. 15.—President Charles E. Voitle of the American Flint Glass Workers’ Union has arranged for another conference with the manu facturers of pressed ware. It will be held some day next week. The vote of the members in this branch on the proposition made by the manu facturers at the Atlantic City conference has been received at headquariers and counted. It was overwhelming against accepting the terms pro

posed by the manufacturers, and another and final conference is necessary. If an eement be not reached at the meeting next week a strike will be ordered. In the thin blown tumbler branch the men have asked for an advance of 10 per cent, and none of the factories in that line are in operation. Most of the plants of the National Glass Company are running, and it is believed that a strike will be averted.

HE REPLIES THAT COMPANY, WHICH IS IN THE HANDS OF A RECEIVER, OWED HIM MONEY, Herbert T. Beatty, twenty-nine years old, a broker, living at -the Clarendon Hotel, Eigh teenth-st. and Fourth-ave., was taken before Magistrate Hogan, in the Tombs police court, yesterday, charged by Charles ‘W. White, secre tary and treasurer of the Balvanera Mining Company, with not accounting for funds and stock of the company amounting to $17,500. The charge was made in four counts. said a man this morning who has heard nearly all that have been delivered. The Rev. Dr. John Bal com Shaw, of the West End Presbyterian Church, of New-York, was the preacher, whose address on Beatty was paroled in the custody of his coun sel, Mr. Unger, of Levy Unger, for examina tion on August 19. Mr. White said that the Balvanera Mining Company, which was incorporated in West Vir ginia, had large mining holdings in Mexico. The office is at No. 11 Broadway. It was charged first that, about October 8, 1901, Beatty, while in the employ of the com pany, sold certificates of stock worth 32,500 to A. G. Kroetzer, jr., of No. 142 Peari-st., without the consent -of the hoard of directors, and did not account for the funds. In the second count it was alleged that Beatty sold $5,000 worth of the company’s mining certificates to Jay 8S. Jones in May, 191, receiving notes, which he had discounted at the Seventh National Bank. This money, he also failed to account for. The third count alleges that in May, 1901, he sold 85,000 worth of stock to H. O. Packard, again not accounting for the money. The last count charges the same failure in the sale of $5.00 worth of stock to D. J. Nedhorg, of No. 470 Broome-st. Beatty's counsel! refused to discuss the case, Fut it was learned that the broker's defence is that the company, which is now in the hands of Flint Eddy as receiver, is indebted to him for more than the amount of {ts claim, and that the remedy, if there is one, is in a civil] action. WOMEN CHASE BURGLAR. oe ARGUSES. THE OTHERS ‘AND THEY PURSUE FUGITIVE THROUGH WOODS. A burglar who visited the home of Mrs. Dorsch, In Sherwood Park, a settlement between Yonkers and Mount Vernon, was routed by the women of the neighborhood on Thursday night, The burglar was discovered by Miss Ida Wester land, one of the members of the settlement, who in passing the house noticed a man with a slouch hat and a lark lantern in his hand, peer ing out of the front door. Knowing that Mrs. Dorsch was ill and her husband away, Miss Westerland spread the alarm through the neighborhood. She ran first to the home of Mrs. Green. Mrs. Green ran to other women until they had sdon organized a female posse, The women then started to investigate. As they were entering the house the burglar suddenly brushed by them and, jumping through the back window with a bag on his back, ran for the woods. The plucky women pursued him. After an unsuccessful chase through the woods and under brush, they returned and found that everything in the house, even to the carpets, had been disarranged. The burglar had obtained silverware worth nearly STUN) BRAVE BOY DIVES IN VAIN. HIS PLAYMATE DIES FROM KXHAUSTION AFTER BEING CARRIED TO SHORE. One of the bravest attempts at rescue that has been made on Staten Island in some time occurred yesterday, when Archie Fulton, jr. son of Archie Fulton, clerk to the Coroner of Richmond, got seven-year-old John Doody, son of Peter Doody, of Elm Park, te the surface, after he had gone down for the third time.

Doody and Fulton were playing at the pier at Morning Star Road, Elm Park, when Doody lost his balance and fell into the water. Fulton is one of the best swimmers fer his age on Staten Island. Without waiting to remove any of his clothing, he dove in after Doody.

The first time he failed to get him. He dove a second time, with the same result, but the third time, and just as Doody had sunk be neath the surface, he succeeded in getting hold of him. Fulton was almost completely exhaust ed, but clung to his playmate and succeeded in getting him safely to the wharf. A doctor was immediately called, but when he arrived Doody was dead from exhaustion. Fulton was cheered tremendously when he reached the dock with Doody by a crowd which had collected on the pier. acetone ee SUICIDE IN CENTRAL PARK RESERVOIR.

OME WEIN WORK OF SOUL WINNING. DR. SHAW, OF NEW-YORK, AT NORTH FIELD—COMMENCEMENT DAY AT MOUNT HERMON. {BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.] East Northfield, -Mass., Aug. 15.—"“This is the greatest address delivered during this conference,” “Come 10 boston and dellver tllal balllc ol ais in my church.” said Dr. A. C. Dixon to Dr. Shaw as he greeted him at the close of the morning ser vice. i “Soul Winning” was under discussion. “I shall try to get Dr. Shaw,” said a leading layman, “to come to Boston and deliver that ad dress before the Congregational Club. We need that message badly in our New-England churches.” Dr. Shaw came here from Kenne Valley, in the Adi rondacks, to deliver this single sermon, but the re sult was worth the effort. For nearly an hour he held the great audience wellnigh spelibound. Be ginning with the remark that winners of souls should co-operate with the Holy Spirit, he showed wherein that co-operation was possible: First, when one yields himself to the Holy Spirit; sec ond, when one shares the purpose of the Spirit, and, third, when one joins Him entirely in his work. The address was replete with incident and experi ence. A cannibal chief, who hecame converted and started out to do mission work, bought a boat in which he could sail among the islands to carry the gospel to other tribes. He had abandoned his dugout for the sailing boat, but he soon brought back the better one, declaring that he could not. do effective work while using it. His ministry was not blessed, and he himself was in danger of going back to cannibalism. “Some of us,” said Dr. Shaw, “wiil have to give up our hoats before we can be some soul winners. Give up your boat, my brother, if it is weakening your efficiency as a winner of souls.” The preacher closed with a personal experience which moved many a person to tears. Dr. Shaw had an Adirondack driver, named Harvey, with whom he had ridden hundreds of miles. While they had talked on many subjects, they had never had a fair religious conversation, until one day when they were riding together the preacher talked with him about the claims of religion upon man kind, and at last invited him to attend the village chureh where he was to preach the next Sunday evening. Harvey promised to do so, but he was unable to keep his promise. The next morning he was taken ill, and died two days later. Dr. Shaw never saw him alive again. He was asked to take some part in the funeral service. “Very well,” he said; “but 1 cannot speak, and I am not worthy to pray; 1 will read a passage from the Scriptures.” This he did, and when he walked with the friends to take a farewell look at the face of old Harvey, he said that the Inscription on the coffin plate seemed to him to be missing, and instead of the usual wording. announcing the name and age of the deceased man, he saw in letters of light, these words, “A lost opportunity.” “More lost, I bellave,” added Dr. 8haw solemnly, “more lost to me than to old Harvey.” MOUNT HERMON COMMENCEMENT. This afternoon the closirg exercises of the Mount Hermor School were held, and hundreds of people went across the river to the beautiful school cam pus, which was dear to Mr. Moody's heart. He loved the seminary for girls, for it was first love; but he was accustomed to say that he understood boys better than he did girls. Mrs. Moody was in the audience and Willlam R. Moody sat on the platform and introduced the speakers. Colonel Janeway, the president of the Beard of Trustees, presided, and brief addresses were made to the young men and thelr friends, who filled the beau tiful Moody chapel, by the Rev. F. B. Meyer, Dr. H. B. Silliman, of Cohoes, N. Y.; Professor Hitch cack, of Amherst College; J. Willis Baer, of Bos ton, a trustee of the school; H. M. Moore, of Bos ton, the president of the seminary, and the Rev, Dr. Henry E. Weston, of Crozer Theological Semli nary; Dr. A. C. Dixon, of the Ruggles Street Bap tist Church, of Boston, and Dr. John Bancroft Devins, of the Broome Street Tabernacle, of New York. One of the speakers told of meeting a delega tion of students from the seminary and the school on their way to the students’ volunteer convention at Toronto last winter. After leaving Buffalo sev eral college delegations entered the car, and soon one of them began a song, in which unpleasant references are made to members of a race largely represented in New-York. The moment that this song ceased, the Hermon boys started the hymn:

Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim Salvation through Immanuel’s name. To distant climes the tidings bear, And plant the Rose of Sharcn there. There is not another hymn in the books, the speaker added, so appropriate as this to rebuke the spirit of the song thoughtlessly started by Christian voung people on their way to a mission ary convention. But no rebuke was intended by tha Hermon bovs and the seminary girls; it was simply the Northfield spirit manifesting itself, sup planting the bad with the good-—not pumping the air out of the glass, but pouring the water in. It was displacing it by simply what one might expect from those who had imbibed the spirit of D. IL. Moody. The effect was startling. Scarcely had the last words of the missionary chant been sung before the singers of the song responded with the familiar hymn, in which every person in the car joined: Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love: The fellowship of kindred minds {s ltke to that above. After Dr. Silliman had spoken Mr. Moody in formed the young men that he had given the science hall that bears his name and equipped fit. Now that the school has outgrown the building pro vided, Dr. Silliman has given $10,000 with which to erect an addition, 40 by 50 feet, which will contain a large lecture hall and numerous classrooms, Northfield has never had a better friend than Dr. Silliman. At the suggestion of Principal Cutler, the effiecient head of Mount Hermon, the members of the school arose to express their thanks to their generous hearted benefactor. Many another school and soclety here and abroad could properly follow their example, and to the same man also, Nearly four thousand boys have been at Mount Hermon since it was opened, twenty years ago. When Mr. Moodv died many members of the Alumni Association felt that the association should receive into membership all those who had been students at Mount Hermon, who were loyal to Mount Hermon and the memory of Mr. Moody. This step was taken, and under the progressive leadership of Jeremiah Holmes, a graduate of the school, and the cordial co-operation of the Moody family. Principal Cutler and others, the association is beginning to be of real value to the school. This work among the old students has led te the necessity of having a secretary devote a part of his time to the work. Lorimer Drury, Mount Hermon, '98, and Brown University, '02, has been appointed to this position. His duties will include the management of an alumni publication which will help in keeping former students in touch with one another and with the school; Keeping track of the students who have gone out from the scheol; assisting in the administrative work of the association, and the raising of the student endowment fund, which has grown very rapidly under the direction of Professor Dickerson. In a word, the secretary will be the representative of the old students at the school, and will alsa be a member of the faculty and will assist ‘n the de partment of history.

This morning at the auditorium, before Mr. Mor gan began his study of the prophecy of Micah, Mr. Moore referred again to the debt on the auditorium. Since he spoke of it last week, $8700 of the $10,000 needed has been subscribed. Several checks of $0 and $100 have been received from readers of The Tribune who are unable to be here. Only $1,300 remains unpaid, and on Sunday evening an opportunity will be afforded those who have not had one already to have a share in paying for the building, which cost $0,000, and which is to be entirely free from debt before this con ference adjourns.

A SERMON BY MR. MEYER. On Sunday both Mr. Meyer and Mr. Morgan will preach. The following is Mr. Meyer's sermon on “Grieving the Spirit’: 4 Last night in the small watches I could awake and pray. It seemed as if the Stirit of God, brooding over this sleeping masses of peopl= woke one to enter into fellowship with Him Hi t the issue of this conference. At first it seemed though an awful conflict was on foot, and as if the powers of darkness were mightily withstanding the light and love of God, but the assurance came into my heart that God would get for Himself the vic tory in the case of every man woman who had come up to attend this conven I believe that, however much at this moment you may, be steeling

lies the holy of holies of thy nature; in thy sub consciousness and in that most holy shrine, the Shekinah of His fire is burning to-night. Thou mayest not he conscious when it was lit; thou mayest not have any date by which to mark its inauguration, but as certain as thou art a Chris tian, so certain it is that within thy spirit is the Holy Spirit of God. Think not it necessary to enter into a temple; thou art thyself a temple, and if in the crowded city thou desirest to pray, it is not needful for thee to enter the sacred fane which has been trodden bv the feet of myriads; enter into thine own heart, for in its depths thou shalt find Him whose presence makes heaven heaven. “Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, which ve have of God, which is within, and ye are not your ewn?’ Thou temple of God, thou shrine of the eternal, thou wonderful mystic being who canst hide within the depths of thyself the eternal spirit of the infinite God, I tell thee, as God's messenger, grieve Him not. SEALED BY HOLY GHOST. Grieve Him not, because He seals thee. “By whom ye were sealed.” When Jesus Christ stood under the open skv in the waters of baptism, the voice of God proclaimed Him to be the beloved Son, and that was the moment when God authenti cated Christ. When the Father placed His seal upon the Son, He authenticated or sealed Him. and the Apostle says every child of God stands under that open sky, or should; every child hears that voice, “My beloved Son.” or should, and in addi tion to faith, after that ve helieved, ve are sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, Who gives the inner witness, Who witnesses that we are born from above, Who is, as Bunyan tells, our roll, the roll of our assurance.

iI suppose the Spirit of God does this first, by teaching us to distinguish between our position and our condition, between our standing and our walk, between what we are obisctively in Christ and what we are subjectively in ourselves. This is al wavs changing constantly, altering with the tem perature of the weather and with the state of our nervous system; but our position in Christ, our position in the risen lord before the throne of God, is as unalterable as the verv throne of God itself. And in addition to that, the Spirit of God deep down in the believing spirit is always crying “Abba Father!” and the cry of “Abba is the Spirit's assurance that we are born from above. Hast thou it? If thou grievest the Spirit thou losest it; thou losest thy roli; thou art no longer certain of thine acceptance; thou beginnest to think that after all thou art no child. Take heed; grieve not the Holy Spirit of God or thou losest thy scaling. Grieve Him not, because He is a person; grieve Him not, because He is near, He is within; grieve Him not, because He seals thee; grieve Him not, because He brings a clear heaven between thyself and Christ, a clear heaven. Mr. Spurgeon said once that for thirty years every quarter of an hour he had been conscious of the presence of Christ—a great thing for such a humorous, busy man to say. And you will all remember the story of that French cook in a Catholic monastery, in the sixteenth century, who said that he was more conscious, or as much conscious, of the presence of Christ as he wrought in the monastery kitchen as he was when he knelt to receive the eucharist. I never shall forget, after the moment in my life when 1 saw that 1 could receive the Holy Spirit's intliling by faith without emotion, climbing up to the bedroom occupied by Pastor Stockmeyer, in the home of my friend, Dr. Eider Cumming, and saving to him: “Pastor, I want to ask you one question. Do vou think it is possible for a man to receive the filling of the Holy Spirit apart from emotion and by faith?’ And he said: “Certainly. Without emotion it is possible to receive the infilling of the Holy Ghost by an act of faith.” [I said, “Thank vou,” and turned to leave his bedroom, when he called me back and sald: **Stop. What I have said is true; it is possible for a man to receive the

filling of the Holy Ghost without emotion, but when a man has received it he will be very deeply con scious of God.” 1 believe that is just true of everybody. If vou and 1 know what the Holy Spirit is at all, He makes Jesus Christ a living, bright reality; not emotionally, but there is a quiet Knowiedge that there is a clear avenue be tween the soul and its beloved. If you grieve the Spirit, if you grieve Him, soul, thou losest that consciousness of Christ. Grieve Him not, grieve Him not, grieve Him not, lest thou losest Jesus, as one has often lost the Alps by the descending mists which have come between us and them, veiling for days together their glorious form. And if to-night, as speak, vou take back something by which vou have grieved the Spirit, I believe that the face of Jesus, which has been veiled for many a day, will look out again in all the radiant majesty of other and happier bygone times.

LOST LOVE FOR BIBLE. Grieve Him not, because He gives an appetite for Seripture. 1 have met people in this convention who have complained that they have lost all love for their Bibles, and they have asked for methods of study by which to get it back. No method of study will give you back your love for the Bible. If you have grieved the Spirit of God you lose your appetite for it. It is only when vou are right with Him that there is the perpetual longing to get to the Word that He inspired. T dread people who talk to me about the Holy Spirit apart from the Word. I have met people who have been led into no end of vagaries because thev said they had been impelled by the Spirit, It will be well to re member that the Holy Spirit leads to the Word of God naturally. Grieve Him and you shut your Bible, and a closed Bible indicates a grieved Spirit. Once more I say, grieve Him not because the Spirit of God antagonizes the self life. I spoke about the self life last night. You and T saw its hideous workings, and there is the danger always that people, when they see this, will begin to an tagonize it by themselves. It is a great mistake. When the influenza epidemic prevailed in London many people were in terror that it should attack them, and one gentleman, a member of my con gregation, who was unusually fearful, hearing that euealyptus was the one sufficient remedy for it, soaked his handkerchi¢f and linen so deeply in eucalyptus that one was conscious of the pres ence of the antiseptic at quite a distance from him. He lived for a time in the eucalyptus aroma, and the result of being constantly in the environing of eucalyptus saved him from all fear of the microbe of influenza. for the eucalyptus antago nized the microbe. My friend had no need to an tagonize the influenza microbe himself; let him live in the eucalyptus atmosphere, and that en veloping him was enough. I have heard of little insects that dive deep into ponds of muddy water. first surrounding themselves with an atmosphere of air, and so dropping themselves down into the muddy depths and being so covered by the trans parent film of air that the impurity "around has not been able to contaminate them. I say to vou and to myself, Do not worry about the self life; lo not antagonize the self principle; do not fix vour mind on it, lest you become self-centred in vour endeavor to get away from self; but abide in the Holy Spirit, walk in the Spirit, live in he Spirit, see that the Spirit is not grieved, and the Spirit Himself will deal with the self life. Your one business is to keep in with the Holy host, and He will see to everything beside. 3rieve not the Spirit, for if thou dost. the old ust will rise. Mark. young man, young girl, if you are conscious of the constant arising of vour Id self nature, which bears its fruit and se sure of iis: that you are trying to

When the influenza epidemic prevailed in London many people were in terror that it should attack them, and one gentleman, a member of my con gregation, who was unusually fearful, hearing that eucalyptus was the one sufficient remedy for it, soaked his handkerchi¢f and linen so deeply in eucalyptus that one was conscious of the pres ence of the antiseptic at quite a distance from him. He lived for a time in the eucalyptus aroma, and the result of being constantly in the environing of eucalyptus saved him from all fear of the microbe of influenza. for the eucalyptus antago nized the microbe. My friend had no need to an tagonize the influenza microbe himself; let him live in the eucalyptus atmosphere, and that en veloping him was enough. I have heard of little insects that dive deep into ponds of muddy water first surrounding themselves with an atmosphere of air, and so dropping themselves down into the muddy depths and being so covered by the trans parent film of air that the impurity "around has not been able to contaminate them. I say to you and to myself, Do not worry about the self life; do not antagonize the self principle: do not fix your mind on it, lest you become self-centred in your endeavor 10 get away from self; but abide in the Holy Spirit, walk in the Spirit, live in the Spirit, see that the Spirit is not grieved, and the Spirit Himself will deal with the self life Your one business is to keep in with the Holy Ghost. and He will see to everything beside Grieve not the Spirit, for if thou dost. the old lust will rise. Mark, young man, young girl, if you are conscious of the constant arising of your old self nature, which bears {ts fruit and be sure of iuis: that you are trying to yourself against the truth, the angel of God's love s not going to let you go until you have received the blessing of your whole life. If But I realized at that moment that I must de liver yet once more my soul to you, and, though I will confess that all day I have been eager to shirk the task of to-night, I have simply no alternative. 1 can get no other message, hg Ts: needs tell vou just what I think God wants you to learn in this moment; and if ever I had the love of godiy men and women, I would ask them, for the love of God, that they would bear me up waile I speak. O! may the wind, the south wind, blow, and may my brothers and sisters who know God lay hold on God on my behalf! I want to speak very simply. too, that, as Mr. Baer prayed so aptly, there may be very little of myself and very much of the pres ence and power of God. 1 am speaking from a text that you know so well it is hardly necessary to tell you where to find it. Ephesians iv, 30: “Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, in whom” or “by whom ye were sealed unto the day of redemption.” Grieve Him not. He is a person. You could not grieve the wind, or an influence, or a breath. He must be a person with tender sensibility whom we can grieve, And, indeed, this 1s one of those unde signed, as it were, coincident revelations of the personality of the Holy Spirit with which the New Testament abounds, and which comes out more clearly in the first chapter. where with a neuter noun the Apostle uses a masculine pronoun, as though he would rather break the rules of gram mar than leave the personality of the Holy Spirit in doubt. The Holy Spirit is as much a person as the Father or the Son. Grieve Him not, for He is very near; not outsiie, but within; for if thou art, as I take it thou art, a regenerate child of God, if thou hast fled for refuge to the Cross and art now looking to Christ as thine only Saviour, it is absolutely certain that the Holy Spirit has stolen noiselessly, insensibly, gen tly, into thy spirit.

Mvea in (_2 self CHARACTER UPBUILDING. Remember not to grieve Him, because He f= is. Character is that which a man is in the dark, And how is character made? Sow a thought, reap an act; sow an act, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap character; sow chaiacter, reap destiny, It is in the influence of thought upon the life that the Spirit of God is perpetually building up step by step character. by your intentions. by your ideals. -By the thought and mind being set on Christ. He is forming Christ within you. You know that when the egg is laid there is a lot of viscus matter, in which there floats a tiny germ which is to be the chick; and the mother hen turns the egg carefully every twenty-four hours, and after three weeks of patient care this has happened: day by day a little less visecus matter and a little more of the little bird, always less of the viscus fluid and mere of the chick, until at last there is none of the viscus matter and an chick, and then the egg is breken and the little thing steps forth. That is the work of the blessed Spirit, as it seems, by which Christ is being formed here and there. You cannot form Christ in yourself; you ca..not build up the character vou want to be; but if vou have an ungrieved Spirit, night after night wher. you sleep, day after day as you are busy In your tasks, in the summer when it is light, in the winter when it is gloomy, when you have emotional jey and when vou are depressed, always the Spirit of God will go on building up within you the perfect character in the likeness of Christ. Hands off! Let the Spirit of God do His chosen work, and some day the scaffolding will be pulled down, and the perfect building will stand forth which you have longed for and He. Do not grieve Him; because, if you do hinder Him, you put Him back, you make gaps in His work. And, mind, do not grieve the Spirit, because If He is not grieved a stream of power passes through the soul to others. The Spirit of God, as I understand it, brings the power of the eternal, and it passes, electric spark fashion, through the soul as its conducter. Oh, have you learned, not to work for God, but to let God work through you? Have you not yet been emptied of self?” Have you not vet stood as a man astonished, paralyzed, helpless, and then thrown your life at the feet of the Son of God and said, Pour through me the redeeming force; make me a magnet, the bar of fron magnetized, let the living stream pass by me and through me, Spirit of God"? If He is ungrieved, the current grows, fathers, rushes and does its beneficent work: but if He is grieved, it becomes a trickling stream which gives a drop or two at a time. Oh, soul, do not grieve Him! He is a person; He is within; He reals; He brings Christ; He opens an appetite for truth: He an tagonizes the self life; He builds up character; He empowers. Grieve Him not. Some people add the word “away.” I don’t hold that. Josephus says that the night before Jerusa lern fell, under the arms of Titus, the watchers in the temple, beneath the starlight, heard the rustling of wings. and volces that said, “Let us d as though God were vacating His temple. t is not my theology of the inner life. Some hold it: I don't. I believe that when the Spirit of God enters into the inner shrine, e may be wounded, suffer, but He does not leave. In how many hearts He is lingering to-day, grieved, wounded. SOULS PUT IN BODIES. How shall I bring this home to you? He may be wounded and grieved by your treatment of His body— His body. We sometimes speak as though we were bodies that had souls. It isn't so; we are souls that for a moment are put inte bodies. Whence we have come, whither we go, what we are, who can tell, except that for seventy years or so, or less, we are in this body, which is God's temple, and we, the soul, is its custodian, and God expects the soul to keep the temple clean; and if the temple is made polluted, the tenant is grieved. What would you have thought if the High Priest of old had written some whimsical! ditty upon the walls of the holy place, or had scratched some impure legend there, or had allowed that holy place to hear the marks of impurity and corruption? Wouldn't you have felt that he was guilty of sacrilege? But what will the Holy Ghost say to thee, thou priestless soul, if within the inner shrine, clothed in the filthy gar ments which thou hast chesen, you allow this fair body to be overrun by greed, the greed of over eating, the greed of self-indulgence, the greed of inordinate passion—for not cone of you can indulge desire, even in legitimate channels, without leav ing the taint of impurity behind? It is not enough to say that this is covered by custom or law: it is possible even within the limits of custom and habit and natural gratification te overindulge and to grieve the Divine Tenant. One look of impurity grieves Him: one thought of impurity cherished by the soul, brooded over, thought of again and again, dwelt on, grieves Him. The corrupt speech, the cor rupt thought, the corrupt novel, the tittle-tattle of society which soils—all that grieves the Holy Spirit of God. To withdraw from Him hand or Jip or eye or brain or body, to say to Him, “This time I use my hand for myself; this time I use my lips as I will; this time I use my ears as I choose; this time I will have this temple for riot; be content to stay in an attic whilst I throw open all for riot’'— He lingers still, grieved. C

He is not only grieved by our treatment of His temple, but grieved by our treatment of others. He is the Spirit of truth, and any want of trans jarercy rieves Him. I think there is a story told

v Dr. Plerson how that, in his early manhood. in his first pastorate, he posed a number of people by a question as to where a certain quotation might be discovered, and in a week a young lady sent it to him. When he was fifty, thirty years after. he had a letter from this lady, now become the wife of a prominent minister, saying: “1 made you be lieve that 1 discovered that quotation by my own cleverness, but, as a matter of fact. I obtained it bv the help of the librarian of Yale College. I have not had an hour's peace since then. I want to confess it to you, and I pray you forgive me.” If any eof you are conscious of a lie, acted or spoken, which vou could unravel, and vou won't, that long thirty vears of mendacity, of want eof transparency, grieves Him.

So is it also that He is the Spirit of truth. of transparency and of righteousness. Have you taken undue use of family money? You were left as the sole executor: you have taken unfair advantage of your sisters or your brothers. You have been trust ed with public money, which you have used for pri vate purposes. You have been unrighteous as a lawyer in dealing with that estate. You have been unrighteous as a man of public function in your public office. There has been peculation for your self. Away back, when vou were a girl, you took half a dollar, or away back in vour life as a com mercial traveller, you took some dollars, and you have all the time been fencing it. But that must be put right. All this injustice, all this unrighteous dealing with money, all this unfairness to your public office must be put right. You must do it to night. You have said again and again vou woul do it, but you put it off. You must before you sleep steal up to vour room, and take your pen and ink, and write the letter and inclose the check. You must do it, by the love of God that broods over you. JUDGE WILL CHARGE THE JURY THIS MORN oq.

OXLY FAIR SPORT AT SARATOGA. ONE FAVORITE WON SHOWER CAUSES HEAVY TRACW OXLY FAIR SPORT AT SARATOGA. [RY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.) Saratoga, N. Y., Aug. 13 —Only one favorite won ®t the Saratoga track to-day, and the sport was only fair in quality. No fixture graced the card, but the feature was the all age handicap, at a mile and furlong, which was won by “Alex” Shielés’s old horse Zoroaster, after a rattling good race with Caughnawaga and Himself. Odom was up on Mr. Sanford’s horse, which was a strong favorite, while little Redfern rode Zoroaster. Caughnawaga made the running from the fall of the yellow flag, with Himself racing at his shoulder. Redfern got his mount into third place going up the backstretch, and was content to keep him there, a length back of the leaders, until the mear turn was reached. Then he let out a wrap, and in a few jumps Zoroaster was neck and neck with Caughnawaga, who had begun to leave Him self. Odom swung his whip vigorously, but Zoroas ter continued to gain, and under a vigorous hand ride was half a length in front under the wire. Himself was third. Ethics was anchored in the Leavy going with 123 pounds on his back.

Little Redfern is getting more good mounts just mow than any other boy, and is riding with the greatest confidence and judgment. When it is re membered that this midget can ride at 78 pounds he seems little short of a phenomenon. “Alex” Shields backed his ho.se heavily, and profited largely by his victory. Irritable broke down while running second in the sixth race. He was the favorite, and would prob ably have won if he had stood up. Clonmell beat «Conundrum a head in a driving finish. It begins 20 look as if John W. Schorr had the best of the bargain when he swapped Potente with Senator MeCarren for Clonmell. The Goughacre stable won the first two races. Short Hose was much the best in the first race. He got away last and ran over the whole field. Olefiant was at odds on, but third was the best g&he could do. Moor, at 12 to 1, ied nearly all the mile in the second race, and was In no trouble at the end. Parisienne, a fine looking daughter of “Watercress, led for four furlongs in the race for snaiden fillies two vears old, and then stopped. Intervention beat her easily by two lengths.

The usual Saratoga shower came up about the middle of the afternoon, ana the last three races were run on a heavy track. John E. Madden and Thowas Hitche jr., have bought River Pirate, the two-year-old rate of Penzance colt, of Captain “Sam” Prown, for $8.0. E. K. Wheeler claimed the Keenes' Kingston gelding Orloff yesterday, for $1,060. Erbsmehl, the boy who was hurt by the fall of Dr. Hughes vesterday, is still unconscious at the Saratoza Hospital, but the doctors think he will recover. Summaries:

Vt., Aug. 15.—Golf of championship order marked the second day's play in the tourna ment for the first President Isham cup, now in progress on the Ekwanok Country Club links. The second round and semi-final rounds were com~ pleted. The weather again proved favorable for golf. and this together with the promise of ex ceedingly fast golf, brought out a large attend ance both morning and afternoon. A heavy storm tmmediately threatendd to drench the piayers and spectators this afternoon, but this blew over to the east, only letting a few drops fall upon the links.

i Spe tea an oops vorancum The day was full of surprises. The first cama this morning when Frank O. Reinhart put Find lay S. Douglas out of the competition by 1 up in a magnificent match. The winner was in doubt cntil the last stroke was played, and throughout the contest the spectators were busily engaged applauding the great work of the men. Douglas started out very poorly. topping his first two tee shots. This gave Reinhart a jead of two holes. The former then struck his gait and soon passed the Princeton crack. He was 3 up at the turn, going out in 41 to his opponent's Reinhart dis played great nerve and hezan to win back the holes. He set a terrific pace and was 1 up at the thirteen:h hefore Douglas could recover. Then the fight grew keen and both men played with great care. Despite the efforts of Douglas to get a hole, Reinhart haived every one and tock the match. He got 35 for the last nine holes. which is very fast going. Reinhart Lad a shade the best of the match on the greens. while Douglas got in his good work through the fair green. Their cards follow: 5 E 3

[he Bostonian gave them all another think. for he forced the former champion to play his best game to win by a scant hole The con test was only second to that between De and Reinhart this morning. Travis started out rather easily, and found himself 2 down at the" fourth. He then made a stand and got the fifth, only to lose again on the sixth. He got the ei hth in a 3, and was 1 down at the turn. Travis hers. began to increase his pace and took the lead, be-. ing 2 up at the twelfth. The thirteenth went to Chick. who displayed wonderful nerve in his 5 for supremacy. Travis got the fifteenth in a beau tiful 3, but his opponent did equally weil on the next. This left the former champion 1 up, as the last two holes were halved.

The second round and semi-final rounds were com~ pleted. The weather again proved favorable for golf. and this together with the promise of ex ceedingly fast golf, brought out a large attend ance both morning and afternoon. A heavy storm tmmediately threatendd to drench the piayers and spectators this afternoon, but this blew over to the east, only letting a few drops fall upon the links. The day was full of surprises. The first cama this morning when Frask O. Reinhart put Find lay S. Douglas out of the competition by 1 up in a magnificent match. The winner was in doubt cntil the last stroke was played, and throughout the contest the spectators were busily engaged applauding the great work of the men. Douglas started out very poorly. topping his first two tee shots. This gave Reinhart a jead of two holes. The former then struck his gait and soon passed the Princeton crack. He was 3 up at the turn, going out in 41 to his opponent's 45. Reinhart dis played great nerve and hezan to win back the holes. He set a terrific pace and was 1 up at the thirteen:h before Douglas could recover. Then the fight grew keen and both men played with great care. Despite the efforts of Douglas to get a hole, Reinhart halved every one and tock the match. He got 35 for the last nine holes. which is very fast going.

FIREWORKS FROM DEVERY. [hat t REAL AND FIGURATIVE VARIETIES BLAZE IX THE IXTH. FE «THE CHIEF” HOLDS THAT ONLY DEAD ONES VOTE FOR SHEEHAN AND GOOD WIN, THUS ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS GF VOTES. WIN, THUS ACCOUNTING ron TRANSFERS GF VOTES. All the election fanfare of showering Roman candles, and the red glare of Bengal lights and choking smoke, and drums and cymbals, pos sessed the IXth Assembly District last night. But under the surface Devery and the “powers that has been,” as he calls them, were running race for outside votes. It was the last day but one for transferring volers. Both camps were busy. Devery did not deny the report that four hundred transfers had been made in the course of the day. This is a large number for a “walk over” campaign.

«Transfers?’ said the big chief; “1 suppose there's been transfers during the day. Most always is about primary time, to the best of my recollection. Now, when you ask for exact numbers, you're all right. 1 want the same. But I ain't goin’ to get ‘em. Not till tomor row night. Should I think four hundred was a good guess? Well, if IT was running a guess factory 1 dare say I would turn out a good four hundred. But youse want to hang on to the fact that people died, and people move. 1 should say that ail of four hundred Democratic a votes have either died or moved since last Election Day. But the Goodwin crowd, they're making those people who have moved out or gone to that last Assembly district as people people never move out of —they're making these poor dead men vote. Goodwin and Sheehan don’t respect graves. If they did who'd vote for them? A man has got to be more dead than alive to go with those sports. And if you want to see some transfers, what do you think of the forty men Sheehan's got in a house in West Twenty-sixth-st.? The house ic full of bound ers. They're forty of them cooped up there, I've got two affidavits to it Sheehan’s just shoving in transfers like the iceman jams ice into the icebox.” a ar Han AR aa The music in the air i was forced out of unwill band of the French Democratic Club. marched up one street and down the next, in and out, from Sixth-ave. to Tenth, and from the Pump to the association rooms. The un ixnowing ones on the sidewalks as the procession drew near remarked that it sounded like So cialist Democratic music. But when the trans parencies answered the three oracular questions, “Goodwin?” “Sheehan?” “Devery?” “No.” “Nit,” “Yes!” the hypnotic spell of the big chief fell over them, and they cheered till the band itself was outdone. i A a

Asin

In the association rcoms, in Eighth-ave., near Twenty-third-st., the air was red with fire and

thick with sulphur, and fifteen zealots shook Roman candles long after they had burned out. Again at the Pump the process was repeated. If the idea was to smoke the chief out, it was successful. The Devery barouche deposited him at the door of the French Club, “Aux Bons Amis,” presently, and he made his way through the press of outsiders, interspersed with a few club members, to the back room. Appeals in English, French and Devery were of no avail to i

i

n the district last night ing horns by the French The club thin the crowd. They were all members of the club that night. So Devery opened his mouth and spoke. I

“The Frenchman is a man of his word,” said he, appealing at once to the pet glory of the French, honor and the code with a capital; “when he gives his word he considers it a prom ise. Now, you members of a society who com prises all the Frenchmen in the district want tc live up to your word to save the people (cheers) until Election Day, September 16. «Long cheers.) I want to say a Frenchman keeps his word. (More cheering.) You know the leaders you've had in this dis #rict. You know what you think of them. I want you to remember what vou think of them on Election Day. Do wouse suppose that La fayette would have refused to do people of this district favors if they had elected him? La favette was a gentleman. Sheehan and Good win ain't no Lafayettes. Pin that on your coat.”

Later Devery was driven to the Jelly Pipers, #n Twenty-eighth-st. and Tenth-ave., where he shook hands with his adherents and spoke a few ~rords of wisdom. When told that Goodwin expected to begin the fight in earnest next week, Devery said: “They can’t begin too soon, them sports. I hope they'll spend some money on the people. The people will be glad to see their meney. I in ~ited the guys to get into the fight long ago. Looks as though they were sort of timid, like 2

H in the surf, vou know.”

To-day is to be a red letter day for Devery end all who bzlieve in his mission as defender of the people.

NT lA TE Ta dt ea W\ 1 arf Philadelphia, Aug. 15.—With a full comple ment of five hundred men, and a few guests, the new battleship Maine started majestically down the river from the Cramps’ shipyard this afternoon, on the cruise which will terminate in the official trial of her speed over the govern ment course off the New-England coast. The vessel is in command of Captain Percival But man, marine superintendent at Cramps’. The new Maine will proceed to the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where she is expected to arrive to morrow night. On Monday, if the weather is favorable, she will take aboard the detail of naval officers and engineers who are to super vise the test, and some additional guests, and proceed to Boston Harbor. There she will be joined by more guests, and on Wednesday, if weather and sea are favorable, she will go to the government speeding course from Cape Ann to Cape Porpoise, off the Massachusetts coast, and undergo the ordeal of her official test. Edwin 8. Cramp, who will direct the move ments of the battleship as the representative of the builders, started for New-York to-day by train, and will join the vessel in Brooklyn. NEW DESTROYER IS FAST. THE CHAUNCEY MADE 29:51 KNOTS IN HER TRIAL, Philadelphia, Aug. 15.—The new torpedo boat de stroyer Chauncey returned to-day after a success ful trial trip. The figures “20.51” painted on the smokestack represented ihe maximum speed in knots attained on her trial President Seddinger. of the Neefie Levy Ship building Company, says that the Chauncey made an average speed of 2864 knots in her four trial runs. and during the endurance trial of one hour she averaged 26.80 knots, or nearly one knot above the speed requirement, BIG REAL ESTATE COMPANY. TO BE ORGANIZED ‘WITH A CAPITAL OF MILLIONS TO TAKE OVER BROOKLYN HEIGHTS HOTELS AND RESTAURANTS. A project is on foot to organize a corporation with a capital of from $K,000.000 to 10,000,000 to take over the hotels and restaurants op Brooklyn Heights and control the real estate market of that part of Brooklyn. The first move in this plan was made yesterday, when Louis J. Horowitz, representing the Brooklyn Heights Improvement Company, took title to the Argyle, a hotel at Fulton and Pierrepont sts. The Ar gvle, formerly owned by Hugh Stewart, was ex changed by him for the Westminster apartment building, at St. Nicholas-ave. and Onehundred and-forty-fifth-st., Manhattan. The new owner of the Argyle immediately transferred it to Louis J. Horowitz, representing the Brooklyn Heights Improvement Company, taking in part payment forty-three parcels of Brooklyn prop erty. These parcels were the holdings of peo ple who expect to have an interest in this new company when incorporated. They had been transferred to Mr. Horowitz for this purpose. The Argyle is a four story brick and iron building, having a frontage in Pierrepont-st. of fifty-three feet and in Fulton-st. of twenty-six feet. It will be one of the holdings of the new corporation to be organized. Another of the holdings of the company will be the new hotel which the Brooklyn Heights Improvement Com pany is erecting on the Heights at an expense of £250,000. The organizer of the corporation is Mr. Horo witz. who has several pieces of property on the Heights. In speaking of the project last night he said that the plans had not been fully ma tured as yet, and would not be until he came back from Europe. He expected to sai! next week, and to return in September. Then, he sa.d, a name would be selected and plans made for financing the project. He said that he could not give all the details of the scheme or the names of those who it was expected would be in it. W. C. Bolton would probably be in terested, he said. Another whom he mentioned was V. F. Pelletreau. Some of the hotels which he expected would be taken in were the Hotel Margaret, on Columbia Heights; the Hotel St. George, in Clark-st., and the Pierrepont, in Montague-st. There are several other apart ment houses and hotels which are included in the plan. Mr. Horowitz added that the object of the project was to control the situation on Brooklyn Heights and provide for economies in the operation of the hotels and restaurants which it was intended to absorb. A saving, he said, could be effected in purchasing supplies in large quantities. LAYS ARREST TO ANIMOSITY. A NAVY YARD ASSISTANT DISCHARGED BY MAGISTRATE DOOLEY. There was a strong intimation that political ani mosity had something to do with the arrest of George Olsen, of No. 178 Twentyv-sixth-st., Brook lyn, who was arraigned in the Butler-st. court yes terday on a charge of having been intoxicated on the night of August 10. Olsen, who served on the cruiser New-York in the Spanish war, and is now an assistant superin tendent of one of the departments at the navy yard, is a follower of I.uke D. Stapleton in the latter's fight against William A. Doyle for the Democratic leadership of the VIIIth Assembly Dis trict. Some time ago, he gays, a position was offered him if he would desert to the Doyle forces. He refused, and since that time, he declares, he has been a marked man. Last Sunday night Olsen was arrested by Patrol man Daniel Marks, who, according to Olsen, beat him so badly with his club that he was not able to be about for several days. To prove this he pro duced in court vesterday a shirt and two pocket handkerchiefs covered with blood stains. Marks denied the assault, and declared he had made the arrest because Olsen was intoxicated. The latter had severa! witnesses to testify that ae was not in toxicated, and Mr. Stapleton, who defended him, eaid that in a fifteen years’ acquaintance he had never known Olsen to be under the influence of liquor. Mrs. Martha Arnold. of No. 172 Twenty-sixth-st.. testified that on the night of the arrest she heard Marks say to some one that he was waiting for Olsen. and that if the latter was intoxicated he would lock him up. Magistrate Dooley discharged Olsen. COMMITTEE TO REPORT ON LETTERS. RUMOR OF A SPLIT IN HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH OVER BILLS OF HANDWRITING EXPERTS. The congregation of the Hope Baptist Church, Broadway and One-hundred-and-fourth-st.,, dis cussed last night the letters said to have been written by a young woman member of the church. The question was placed in the hands of the ad visory committee, consisting of the seven deacons and six trustees of the church. The committee held a two hours’ session in the study of the pastor, the Rev. Richard Hartley. Afterward Mr. Hartley said that the committee had decided on a report, which would be submitted to the congrega tion next Friday night. Whatever action the con gregation then takes will, he said, be final. He refused to give an inkling of the nature of the re port, but said that it was adopted unanimously. Concerning the report that Miss Grace Merritt had resigned from the church, a deacon said that under the regulations of the Baptist Church a mem ber could leave a congregation only in one of three ways—being expelled by a vote of the congrega tion, taking «it a letter of membership in another congregation, or being dropped from the rolls for non-attendance. Neither Miss Merritt nor her father was at the meeting of the congregation last evening. At Miss Merritt's home it was denied that she was suffering from nervous prostration. There was a rumor last evening that a split in the congregation had occurred over the payment of the bills of the handwriting experts who have on the writing of the letters. Some con tend, it was reported, that Mr. Hartley exceeded his authority when he engaged the experts, while others argue thaf he had a iy ht to do so, and that the bills should be paid. Mr. GS ariey declared that this question was not discussed last evening. RUMOR OF A SPLIT IN HOPE BAPTIST CHURCE OVER BILLS OF HANDWRITING EXPERTS.

CORN AND WHEAT CROPS IN KANSAS SUFFERING. wichita, Kan., Aug. 15.—Hot weather pre vailed here again to-day, and had a bad effect on growing corn, according to crop experts. They say the late corn has not been fully ma tured. Word came to-day from Western Kansag to the effect that cattle are going mad because of the dry and hot weather. All grass is dying except the loco weed, eating which makes cat tle drunk and crazy. They are eating it and running wild.

The temperature here to-day was 100 degrees in the shade. In the flelds it was over 100, the hottest this year. Work of thrashing has been suspended all over Kansas, owing to the ex treme heat. The ground is in excellent shape for ploughing, but the horses cannot do the heavy work. Little or no business is being transacted. The corn crop for Kansas is now estimated at 235,000,000 bushels, and the wheat at JO(XKI(XK) bushels. em DARKNESS BEFORE STORM. NEARLY AN INCH OF RAIN FELL IN LOUIS. VILLE IN FIFTEEN MINUTES. Louisville, Aug. 15.—For thirty minutes this af ternoon Louisville was in darkness, caused by clouds, which occasioned much alarm. These con ditions preceded one of the worst storms of the year, and it broke over the city about 2 o'clock. The wind blew at the rate of fifty-eight miles an hour. nearly an inch of rain fell in fifteen min

utes, and the temperature dropped 20 degrees in the same time. Many telephones were burned out by lightning. and shade trees were blown down in all parts of the city. Streetcar traffic was interrupted in several places for more than an hour. Several residences in the suburbs were badly damaged, but no fatalities have heen renorted i bit Le BEEAVY DOWNPOUR OF RAIN. Another downpour added to the general precipita tion of the month and incidentally soaked the crowds who were on their way home last evening. A shower that started mildly at 6 o'clock and was only light rain at 6:28 suddenly developed into the “cat and dog” variety at 6:35, and continued in a soaking pour for eleven minutes. The entire storm brought a fall of just half an inch. almost all of which came in the eleven minutes. This is a heavy rain, but not a record in this month of floods.

i The cheerful prospect for to-day, as forecasted tv the Weather Bureau. is showers. PFITAGTOLE ON A PIER STRUCK. During the heavy thunderstorm of last evening lightning struck the thirty-five foot flagpole on the American Line Steamship Company's Pier, No. 15, North River. The flagpole was shattered into frag ments, which fell upon the pler building and into West-st., below, but fortunately no one was hurt

by the falling pieces. The building did not take fire, as it was covered with iron.

When the lightning struck the building, John Lynch, a watchman emploved on the ground floor, who was standing in the doorway, was shocked and staggered by the flash. Another watchman, on the second and top story of the building was un

hurt although badly shocked. SNOW FALLS IN GERMANY. Berlin. Aug. 15.—The weather continues cold and rainy. The temperature yesterday in Southern Saxony stood at 33 degrees Fahrenheit, and snow fell in the Frzgebirge and in the Vosges Moun tains, in Alsace, The North Sea summer resorts are practically deserted, and persons on vacations are returning to their homes. Army officers are wearing their winter overcoats, ELEVATOR FALLS WITH FOUR MEN CABLE BREAKS ON CAR IN THE H. B. CLAF LIN COMPANY'S WAREHOUSE. Carrying four emploves, the freight elevator in the warehouse of the H. B. Claflin Company, at No. 20 Worth-st., plunged from the third floor to the basement last evening. Four men who were quitting work got on the elevator at the fourh floor. Before the third floor was reached the hoisting cable, without any warn ing, broke, and the car shot to the basement. The men were piled in a heap among the broken pleces of wood at the bottom. Reveral other employes rushed to the rescue, but the men extricated themselves from the debris.

George Anderson, of No. 36 Bright-st., Jer sey City, was the most severely injured. He sustained several severe bruises about the arms, legs and body. James Carroll, of No. 87 Car mine-st.,, received a contusion of the left hip. John Burke, of No. 207 Fourteenth-st., Jersey City, had his right foot cut by splinters and his ankle wrenched. John Hastings, of No. 202 Fourteenth-st., Jersey City, suffered a contu sion of the abdomen. Patrolman Michael Cavanaugh, of the Leon ard-st. station, called an ambulance from the Hudson Street Hospital. Anderson and Carroll were taken there. No arrests were made. Why the cable broke could net be determined last mioht MAY BE TOLD TO ARREST SELF SHERIFF OF NASSAU COUNTY TO ANSWER CONTEMPT PROCEEDINGS. i Application will be made before Justice Dickey in the Brooklyn Supreme Court to-day to have Sheriff Jerome B. Johnson, of Nassau County, declared in contempt of court. The application will be made by Franklin Taylor, acting for George A. Mott. Mott was sued some time ago by Molineaux Brothers, lumber dealers, at Hempstead. Judgment, with costs, for the defendant, was rendered. The costs were assigned for collection to Sheriff Johnson. It was alleged that he, being a friend of Molin eaux Brothers, neglected to execute the judgment. Should Sheriff Johnson be declared in contempt he will be obliged to arrest himself, as, according to the laws of the State, a coroner or a sheriff is the only person qualified to arrest a sheriff. By an oversight in making out the administrative detalls of Nassau County, which have been in existence only a few years, no coroner was provided for the county. Johnson is therefore safe from any order of the court, unless he consents to take himself and the law into his own hands. READS TO CHANGE HIS NAME. BROOKLYNITE 18 JEFFERSON; WANTS TO BE HENRY GEORGE. Morris Jacobson, of No. 55 Park Place, Brooklyn, believes that one’s name should show forth one's literary preferences. He is a native of Prussia, who came to this country a few years ago, and has served as clerk in a humble way. In his leisure moments he began to specialize in American his tory, and was particularly impressed with the char acter of Thomas Jefferson. As a tribute to the statesman he recently applied for and obtained the name of Morris Jefferson. But his ventures in literary research @id not stop there. He began to read Henry George, and became a thorough convert to the single tax theories of that writer. Once again it came to Jacobson (or Jefferson) that he could pay a compliment to a fragrant memory, so yesterday he applied to Judge Crane for a renaming. If successful he will emerge as George Freeland Jefferson, the middie name being a subtle reference to the single tax theory.

t If Mr. Jefferson decides to join a library and, reading a book a week, pays his customary compli ment of rebaptizing himself, the Brooklyn judiciary will have to work overtime. Or. again, it has been suggested that it would be well to keep him from the Russian novelists, as any attempt to appro priate the consonantal vagaries of that language would be resented by the clerk of the court.

STATEMENT FROM A. B. CORNELL. SPIRITED DENIAL BY THE EX-GOVERNOR OF THE STORIES SENT ouT FROM ITHACA. Ex-Governor Alonzo B. Cornell came 10 OWH last evening and took rooms at the Astor House, where he was seen by a Tribune reporter. He was asked about the reports sent out from Ithaca re garding his condition, which appeared in The Trib une and other papers two days ago. He said: “As to its being known, as is alleged, to mem bers of my family and my intimate friends that they have been alarmed at my mental decay it is an absolute and unqualified falsehood. The report, instead of causing sincere SOITOW for my condl tion in Ithaca, has caused both amusement at the stupidity of the declaration and contempt for the author of the declaration. The statement that I have ‘shown every evidence of softening of the brain, and it is feared that the ailment is incurable’ is probably a repetition of the old slander malevo lently uttered for political purposes a dozen or more years ago, and which has been repeated from time to time since. “Another statement is: ‘One of the features of Mr. Corneil's affliction is that he is still in control of great wealth.” It cannot be true, because I have never been possessed of great wealth. I have worked for my living since 1 was fifteen years of age, and have never accumulated sufficient wealth to he one-half of a millionaire. True, many Oop portunities have come to me for advantageous in vestments of my surplus earnings in various en terprises with which 1 have been connected as a corporation official or stockholder. Having been employed much of the time for more than forty years as a telegraph operator, manager and higher official of the Western Union Tele graph Company and its yredecessor com panies, my preference has cen to advance and develop the use of electricity in various direc tions. Closely allled with the telegraph has been the railway system of our great country. Other enterprises, local and distant, have been favorite fields of endeavor and aevelopment. Mining for precious metals as well as tor some of the baser metals has been attractive to me always. Some time profitable, sometimes otherwise, on the whole, my ventures have been quite satisfactory. No seri ous losses have occurred in my business career, except those caused by unfaithful associates or fraudulent representations of those who have been trusted as experts or confidential agents. I have suffered mere, perhaps, from too liberal indorse ments of other persons’ liabilities. 1 have never declined to indorse a friend's note, large or small, who seemed worthy of confidence and regard, “Another allegation is tnat I have drawn checks on banks in which I had no funds. That is abso Jutely untrue. have never drawn a check or draft upon a bank, individual or corporation, where 1 was not fully authorized by right of deposit, credit, contract o- official authority to draw such demand at sight or time specified.” In explaining why, possibly. such an attack should proceed from his native town, the exGov

ernor said: “Some days ago an Ithaca newspaper published a statement that the rival telephone companies, which are rapidly devastating the beautiful shade trees and other valuable property and possessions of Cornell University and the city of Ithaca, have undertaken to enter upon private property the titie of which has belonged to me more than thirty-five years, and to construct a water power tunnei, five or six feet in diameter and eight hundred feet in length, from Beebe Lake, the sixty acre reservolr on Fall Creek stream, which has recently been constructed by Cornell University, at an expense of more than $100,000, to a point below still upon and within my own private property, to furnish power Io produce electricity for electric lights, telephones and other purposes, local and general. Nearly ail of the university officials, and many of the city officials and interested parties, such as mill owners, property owners, etc., were absent, and it became my duty ae original grantor to restrain by injunc tion the university and others from further action until the rights of ail parties could be ascertainad

and determined. The preliminary order was granted ard before Justice Forbes,

vesterday, and Is to be he of the Supreme Court, at Canastota, Madison County, on Monday, August 25. Argument will then be made, and proper disposition of the action may be made by magistrate. Owing to the complicated guestions involved it will probably re sult in a reference to some special oaicer of the

court to make {nquiry.”’ SHUTTING OUT THE WABASH. EXTENDING ITS TRACKS ON LONG UNUSED LAND.

LAMB WAS THE YOUTH'S COUNSEL WHOM HE HAD NEVER SEEN—PROMISE TO PRODUCE POWER TUESDAY. More light was thrown yesterday upon the con nection of Camille Weidenfeld with the suit of Peter Power against the Northern Pacific direct ors. Mr. Weldenfeld gave additional testimony on the subject, and also explained to some extent, his connection with a suit against the directors of the Great Northern Railway in the name of Milton Bouden. Regarding the same suit, Mr. Bouden and his employer, E. R. Thomas, son of General Samuel Thomas, gave interesting tes timony. Incidentally, W. D. Guthrie, of counsel for the railroad directors, probed a little deeper into the methods of George Alfred Lamb, Peter Power's attorney. Mr. Lamb seemed to be ill and distressed during the hearing before Examiner Mabey and renewed his promises to produce Peter Power next week. At the beginning of yesterday's hearing, Herbert Limburger, counsel for H. Content Co., testifled 2s to entries in the firm's books regarding stock bought by Mr. Weidenfeld, but he declined to give information as to entries relating to stock bought or sold for E. I. Chapman, whose wife is plaintiff in a suit similar to the Power suit. Mr. Guthrie will appeal! to the courts in an effort to have tle entries disclosed. Albert T. Benedict, an attorney for the Western Union Telegraph Company, produced copies of many telegrams which had passed between Mr. I.amb and Peter Power while Power was at West Hurley, and after he had gone to Canada, but their reading was prevented by the objection of Mr. Lamb that the communications were priv ileged. Mr. Guthrie said he wanted to disprove a statement by Mr. Lamb that the railway attor neys had had access to the telegrams. When Mr. Weldenfield appeared on the witness stand, he said he had been mistaken in his pre vious testimony; that he never had bought stock for Mr. and Mrs. Chapman. He had found, he said, that he had bought for Mrs. Chapman, through Content Co., 100 shares of Great North ern stock. Q.—Was the stock sold to Mrs. Chapman to qual ify her as a plaintiff in a suit. A.—1 have no knowledge to that effect. It might have been. Q.—Who introduced Mrs. Chapman to Mr. Lamb? A.Z1 think I aid. It was brought out that M:. Weidenfield bought the stock from H. Content Co. and sold it to Mrs. Chapman; that he received pay for it, and that the stock was pledged with H. Content Co. for its full value. Mr. Weidenfield, however, insisted that the transaction was not a “wash” sale. He admitted that on Thursday he was in conferer.ce with E. R. Thomas, Milton Bouden and some lawyers, and he and Mr. Thomas opened a joint account as “the American Tobacco Com pany,” and bought #0 shares of Great Northern stock. Mr. Guthrie then drew Mr. Weidenfield's atten tion to a subject of interest in connection with a report that Judge W. A. Lancaster, of Minneapolis, and other Western lawyers who had been inter ested with Mr. Lamb in the Peter Power suit had withdrawn from the case because of Mr. Lamb's tactics and the disappearance of Peter Power when Le was wanted as a witness. Q.—Did not Judge Lancaster send word he would have nothing to do with the Great Northern suit if it was to be a “strike”? A.—I understand he sent some message. Q.—What do you understand by a “strike’* suit? A.—A suit brought for a s~ttlement. Mr. Weidenfeld sald he had been informed by Mr. Thomas that Mr. Bouden had qualified as a plaintiff in the Great Northern suit. He could not explain, he sald, why he and Mr. Thomas had not trought suits in their own names, instead of in tha names of others, to prevent the merger of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern through the Northern Securities Company. He denied that he had been a party to an agreement to pay a week to Peter Power while Power was a plaintiff in the suit.

Replying to questions by Mr. Lamb, the witness denied that ne had agreed *o pay the expenses of Mr. Power in the trip to Minneapolis at the time the suit was brought. He declined to tell about the “Tobacco” syndicate that held Great Northern stock used as a basis of a suit in the name of Milton Bouden, on the advice of Treadwell Cleve and.

Mr. Bouden, who was a managing clerk in the office of Thomas Post, testified that E. R. Thomas said to him one day in January: “I have given you four hundred shares of Great Northern stock, and a suit will be brought in your name.” Q.—What was the value of the stock? A.— About $50,000. Q.—Do you still hold 1t? A.—I do. Q.—Have you paid for it? A.—No. Mr. Bouden said he was in consultation on Thurs day with Mr. Thomas, Mr. Weidenfeld, Mr. Cleve land, W. Bourke Cockran and P. C. Chandler in Mr. Cleveland's office, but he declined to tell what was said there.

Q.—How much stock do you cwn now? A. —Two hundred shares.

Q.—When did you take possession of them? A.— To day. Q.—Is it not a fact that those shares were given you to-day that you might swear you owned the stock? A —I took those shares from the safe he cause the subpeena served upon me calied for their production here.

Q.—Do you know what perjury is and the penalty for perjury. A I do Q.—What became of the other two hundred shares? A.—They ware sold. I noticed the stock was going down, and told Mr. Thomas I would not be resposible for any loss. He said he would arrange about that, and later he told me that he had sold two hundred shares. Mr. Weidenfeld bought them.

i The witness admitted that he had not received any money for the sale of the shares. He sald he understood that Mr. Lamb was his attorney in the suit against the Great Northern directors. Mr, Thomas had told him that Mr. Weidenfeld was interested in the suit. The witness said he had written to Mr. Lamb, whom he never had seen, asking him to withdraw as his attorney in the suit, and Mr. Lamb had returned a bill for $2,538 for professional services.

“Will you shew us the bill?” Mr. Guthrie asked. “If Mr. Lamb consents,” the witness replied. “I have no objection,” sald Mr. Lamb, who was sitting beside the witness. “Are you Mr. Lamb?" inquired the witness, ap parently surprisad, and nearly every one in the room, including Mr. Lamb, laughed aloud. The witness said he sent the bill to Mr. Wei defeld. Mr. Thomas promised him that he should be put to no expense in the suit and that Weiden feld would foot all the bills. He could not tell whether or not the bill had been paid. E. R. Thomas testified that he made over 400 shares of Great Northern stock to Mr. Bouden to have Bouden made a plaintiff in a suit, at the re quest of Mr. Weildenfeld. He sald he expected no profits In the suit, which was to decide the validity of the merger through the Northern Securi ties Company. He would make an accounting with Bouden when the case was closed. He de clined to show his books. Q.—Do you not consider it an unusual transaction to make a clerk a gift of so large a sum of money that he might masquerade as a plaintiff? A.—I do not. It is a common enough practice in Wall Street. Q.—And do you consider those Wall Street meth ods honest? A.—Mv conception of Wall Street's morality is no business of vours. Mr. Thomas said his connection with the suit ah um a and’ 3; RT a la I of J. the transaction was a personal one of his own, was said there. Q.—How much stock do you cwn now? hundred shares. Q.—When did you take possession of them? A. To day. Q.—Is it not a fact that those shares were given you to-day that you might swear you owned the stock? A —I took those shares from the safe he cause the subpeena served upon me calied for their production here. Q.—Do you know what perjury is and the penalty for perjury.

It is a common enough practice in Wall Street. Q.—And do you consider those Wall Street meth ods honest? A.—Mv conception of Wall Street's morality is no business of vours. Mr. Thomas said his connection with the suit had nothing to do with the dissolution of the firm of Thomas Post. Edwin M. Post, former partner of Mr. Thomas, said the firm had not been interested in the suit. At his request Mr. Thomas had gone to the office P. Morgan Co. and had explained that A —Two the other two hundred noticed the stock and had nothing to do with the firm. He said he had not been aware that the 400 shares of stock had remained for months in the office safe. The hearing was adjourned to next Tuesday morning. Mr. Lamb sald he would produce Peter Power then, probably, or would produce him posi tively on the following day, when there is to he a hearing on Judge Lacombe’s order for Mr. Lamb to show cause why he should not be suspended for unprofessional conduct in the Peter Power case. Trenton, Aug. 15 (Special). —Attorney General Me Carter began proceedings in the Court of Chancery to-day to get the appointment of a receiver for the Dime Savings and Loan Association of Pater son, on the ground of insolvency. The Banking and Insurance Department, at whose Instance the suit was brought, has been unable to discover the exact statue of the association, whose books were destroyed in the Paterson fire, but it is alleged that no systematic effort has since been made to get its affairs in a satisfactory condition. The assets are roughly estimated at 00, and the Habilities at $8,000, most of the business being with the poor classes.

The Senorita is thirty-seven feel long and belongs to Sheriff Davis, of Monmouth County, who was aboard, with his family. The life savers from Station No. 1 hauled off the launch, which im mediately started for Red Bank apparently un iniured. FIANCEE SAW GRAY AT CONEY. HOLLENBERG WAS NOT WITH HIM THEN CORONER FINDS LIFE SAVERS NEG. LECTING DUTY. Coroner Flaherty of Kings County. who for a week has been investigating the carelessness shown by the life guards in patrolling the various beaches at Coney Island, is likely to bring the subjeet to the attention of the grand jury with particular force on account of the drowning on Thursday of James A. Gray. son of ex-Deputy Commissioner of Corrections John Morrissey Gray, and G. Walker Hollenberg, of New-Rochelle. Although an effort was made to find the bodies of the two young men yesterday, it was unsue cessful up to a late hour last night. As is usual in such cases where persons disappear mysteriously while in bathing. it has been intimated that Gray and Hollenberg were not drowned. This view of the case is receiving little credence, however. Coroner Flaherty has personally visited all of. the bathing establishments at Coney Island with his chief clerk, and has come to the opinion that the laxness shown in guarding life is little short of criminal. Nineteen establishments were found which employ neo life guards. Many of the places had no lifeboats, and at other places the boats were dragged so far up on the shore as to be prac tically useless. At some of the bathing resorts it was learned that men and women were allowed to go into the surf while under the influence of liquor. At another place whiskey was sold to the bathers. One man who was supposed to he doing duty as a life guard was found to be deaf and dumb. Sev eral of the so-called life guards are supposed to look after two or three resorts and attend to duties inside the bathing houses besides. Miss May Murray, of No. 14 Wyckoff-st., who was engaged to be married to young Gray, went to Coney Island on Thursday with her little brother and met Gray there about noon. They had lunch eon together, after which he said he was going in bathing. He got into his bathing suit and wanted to take her little brother in with him. This he did not do, however. Miss Murray sat on the sand and watehed him dive from the raft and after a short Hise went away. She did not see Hollenberg with ray. Mrs. Mary Hollenberg, the wife of Henry Walker Hollenberg, whe has been missing from his home, at No. 188 Woodland-ave.. New-Rochelle, since last Tuesday. and whose clothing was found in a bath house at Coney Island on Thursday. thinks it strange that no valuables were found in the cloth ing. She said vesterday: I wish the newspapers would find out what be came of my husband's money and valuables. I went to Coney Island to-day. and the police told me that no jewelry or money was found in my hus band's clothing, but money was found in Mr. Gray's clothes; yet, on the othcr hand, John Gray, whose son James disappeared a. the same time as my husband did, told me to-day that money was found in the clothes left by my husband. There is some thing mysterious about this. Henry must have left some valuables in his clothing, I am sure. am told that when a bather is arowned or clothing is left behind at Coney Island nothing is ever found or returned afterward. She declares there are peculiar coincidences in connection with the disappearance of her husband and young Gray. That they were acquainted has «et her to thinking instead or weeping. NOVELRACEATSOUTHAMPTON PROMINENT MEN AND WOMEN TO COM PETE. RIDING HAND IN HAND. DOOR Ye ee ie ec ie uy SE oS ET Southampton, N. Y., Aug. 15.—The novel feature of the annual pony races to be held here to-mOTrTOW by the fashionable colony is a Gretna Green race, the second on the card. In this race the condi tions are that a man and woman must ride hand in hand from the starting point to a given line. There they dismount and sign their names legibly, one after the other, remount and ride to the finish hand in hand. If the name of any couple is il legible or they let go of hands in riding from point to point, the couple will be debarred. The women must ride side saddles. At the start the men are to assist the women to mount. Due to the rivalry in this race, the younger set have been riding about the roads near the village hand in hand, practising for the contest. This has been no hardship to many of the young feliows, and holding hands while riding bids fair to become the proper thing. Among the most prominent. entries for this race are: August Belmont, jr. Mrs. Harry W. Mec Vickar, Stephen Peabody, Jr. H. C. Beadleston, Miss A De Goicouria, James G. K. Lawrence, Miss Caroline Putnam, Miss B. Norton. Lathrop Brown, Mrs. H. A. Budd. H. A. Budd, Miss Gertrude Pell and M. J. Dodge. In the other races, August Belmont, jr. has the most promising lot of horses to send to the post. He has had the pick of his father's stable and should get placed in every race which he rides, as he did last season. This year a splendid dirt track has been built on the plains by Leavitt. the builder of the Saratosa racecourse. This track is to be made permanent and to be held by the Southampton Horse Show As sociation, under whose auspices he races are run Among the other prominent entries and riders are: W. Gould Brokaw, M. La Montagne, F. Bishop H. C. Beadleston, Harry W. Mec Vickar, Miss Ger trude Pell, S. Osgood Pell, B. V. Vingut, W. Mor ton Grinnell, E. D. Lentilhon and Ernest Iselin.

GAMES SCHEDULED FOR TO-DAY. The cricket games scheduled to take place to= day in the championship series of both the Metro politan District Cricket League and the New-York Cricket Association should all prove unusually in teresting and well contested, from the fact that the clubs opposed to each other are considered to be fairly equal in strength.

MEN HAD BEATEN AND MANACLED HIM FOR FISHING IN RESERVOIk. Paterson, Aug. 15 (Special).— A crowd of five hun= dred villagers at Bloomingdale last night nearly mobbed a constable named Frederick Smith, and Samuel Briggs, an East Jersey Water Company em ploye, for the brutal way they had treated Edward Wallace, an old farmer, who is well known and re spected by the whole community. Wallace had been fishing in the reservoir of the company from his own grounds, which abut on the reservoir. an Briggs, with the assistance of the constable. had clubbed him and manacled him, although he had made no resistance. They took him to Justice Den ald’'s office at Bloomingdale, but the justice was n at home, and they waited outside the office two hours, with the old farmer bleeding. The crowd threatened the captors. They tried to get Wallace away from the crowd. but in pushing him the old man fell over, and his head went crashing through a window. This thoroughly aroused the crowd, the old man was released. 4 SNIRVIVOR OF PERRY'S EXPEDITION.

PUBLIC BATH TYPES. TOWEL AND SOGAP BRIGADES FEATH ERS A FEATT RE OF FRIDAY. “See the feathers that came out of that drain pipe.” said an attendant vesterday at the Riving ton-st. free public bathhouse, as she held up for inspection a huge wad of wet plumage. Feathers, as she spoke, floated on the water and drifted slong the flour. Meanwhile, the bather responsibie for this condition, with a basket piled high with the Babbath s provisions, had adjusted the last button and departed. fhe had stopped for the bath on her way from a neighboring chicken market, whera the birds are sold alive and are plucked and killed to order. Feathers are a regular Friday feature. The murky sides of the white porcelain tub re ceived the usual treatment with marble dust from the cleaner and the door of ithe Ifttie room shut upon another occupant. Each tub occupies a tiny room, as does aiso the shower apparatus. Friday is the Jewish preparztion for the Sabbath, and from early morning until the doors close at i o'clock at night, the place is thronged. Swarms of children. the girls in their reception room and the boys on the opposite side of the office, await their turns in eager groups from 8 o'clock until 1. Then the women and men begin to come, and the stairways and halls devoted to each are filled to their limit, while waiting lines of impatient hu manity. each member of which carries a towel and a cake of soap, extend alcng the street in each di rection for naif a biock. This scene is repeated weekly. On other days, excepting Saturdays and Sundays, which are aisc busy, the baths are kept comfortably filled. There are five bathtubs for women and girls (“wanas’” is the Yiddish term by which they are Known ito the frequenters of the Bath). and twenty-two shower baths. or “tusches,™ in the vernacular of the neighberhood. Thesa words have become stock terms among the at tendants and officers of the bath. When there is a crowd, four little girls or two women occupy each of the shower bath apartments. T"ntil last Jonuary soap was provided by the city, but the people proved unworthy of the trust, for the cakes disappeared faster than they could be supplied. Now they furnish their own. “Although a vast number of persons bathe week ly at the Rivington-st. establishment.” said W. W. Weeks, superintendent of public baths, yester day, “we reach a very small minority of the popu jation of this densely crowded district. Many of those who come are regular visitors. Some come daily. “There is only one interior municipal bath in this city. There are fifteen public flcating baths. An appropriation of several hundred thousand dollars wii] be used by the Bureau of Public Buildings and officers for the extension of the system. The float inz baths are open from 5a. m. 10 9p. m. The most crowded floating bath is in East Third-st. As many as ten thousand persons sometimes take their Cip there in a single day.” Lace tunics, cut with deep accentuated points, are coming rapidly into popularity, especially in silk laces of heavy make, and very pretty indeed they are.

Never since the days of our grandmothers have women been sc busy with embroideries as this sum mer. They are not busy fashioning +legant toilet accessories for the dressing table, exquisite doilies and inviting sofa pillows, but the smartest of linen, sheer and fine, sets of collars, cuffs and belts and entire linen gowns, the designs and work of which are artistic in the extreme. These “sets” are shown in the shops in endiess variety, and are stamped ready for work. This entertaining “‘pas time” bids fair to fill in many an autumn after noon. as foreshadowed by assurances that rich embroideries are to be used in all manner of ways— on elegant winter costumes, and even on coats and vests, capes and bodices One of the newest “fads” is combining black and white lace in trimming and the resuit is exceedingly pleasing. A lovely white muslin of Bnest texture, with bouquets of violet colored flow ers stamped on the material, is trimmed with medaliions of white lace and many yards of narrow black lace. The sash, of the flowered muslin, has white lace medallions in the ends, and is edged with the narrow black lace.

All know the rage at present, called the Newport sieeve—the big, melon like puff that begins at the elbow and ends at the wrist. But the new London sieeve is a little dif ferent Like the Newport, it begins at the elbow, but it is side pleated throughout, and is not gath ered into a cuff at the wrist. s But, as there are still a good many summer gays, and the Indian summer, to be gone through yet, with their varied sports and entertainments, Bome of the smartest, of embroidered linen gowns, especially in white, are just finished, and are as eieborate as they are exquisite in beauty, In these the heavier linens are used, preferably what is known as butcher's linen, and the embroidery Is material itseif, and is of the finest heavier effects.

Never since the days of our grandmothers have women been sc busy with embroideries as this sum mer. They are not busy fashioning d1 the incorpora tion of a condition in the contract providing that the prevailing rate of wages shail be paid by rhe contructing company. (Great stress was ‘aid at the time, in opposition to my suggestion, that such a condition would be unconstitutional and could not. therafore, he anforced. Upon examination of the authorities bearing upon the question of the right of the city of New York to insist upon embodying in its contract for tunnel construction with the Pennsylvania Rail road a provision that the railroad shall pay Its workmen the prevailing rate of wages, such right appears to be indisputable, and 1 unnesitatingly atfirm that such contract would be perfactly valid it it contained such a provision. The case of the People ex rel Rogers agt. Coler, 166 N. Y. p. 1... known as ‘“‘the previiling rate of wages case.’ relled upon by the opposition, is not in point.

In other words, that the city and party contracting with it cannot he com peiled by law to insert in such a coniract a pro vision that the contractor shall pay the prevailing rate of wages, and that any act of the »gislature to that effect would be invalid.

HE AND ANOTHER HAD EXCLUSIVE PRIVILEGE AT BELLEVUE-WILIL, RETIRE NOW John Mangles, known to patients and attaches of Bellevue Hospital for eight years as one of the two boys having the privilege of selling news papers through the hospital, has decided to give up the business, having accumulated several thou sand dollars. Eight years ago, when be was twelve veanrs old, he succeeded his uncia, John Steilner, who for thirty vears had the exclusive right to sell papers in Bellevue, and who retired with a com fortable fortune.

At the time Mangles began selling papers in the hospftal, another boy, Dennis Barnett, also obtained permission from the Commissioner of Charities to sell papers there. There was great rivalry between the bors, and almost every morning they would fight over who should have the best wards. Two years ago they formed a partnership. Now Barnett is buying out his partner, who, It is sald, is about to marry and go into another business. HE AND ANOTHER HAD EXCLUSIVE PRIVILEGE AT BELLEVUE WILL, RETIRE NOW.

THE RAPORT OF THE FORMERS RESIGNATION BRINGS TO LIGHT A STEWART WILL CASE STORY The rumor that Justice [esiie W. Russell is to resign from the Supreme Court of this State and form a partnership in this city with Clifford Wayne Hartridge, of the old firm of Dowe Hartridgs, recalls the notable part taken by Judge Russell im the famgus Stewart will case, In which he was re tained, together with the present Secretary of War. This case involved over 330.96. #0 and was one of the greatest will litigations in recent years. The usual charges of undue influence and incom= petency were vigorously pressed, and many wit= nesses had testified to sustain those charges. The contestants were represented by Joseph H. Choate, Frederic R. Coudert. William G. Choate and other able counsel. Elihu Root, ex-Attorney General leslie W. Russell, now justice of the Supreme Court, and Daniel G Rollins conducted the case on behalf of those who desired the will established. At the critical moment a witness was presented by the contestant who had lived several years with the decedent, and who could testify to many Interviews between her and the gentlemen against whom the charges were principally made. This witness was a legates under the will, and was apparently te testify against her own Interest, Ex-Attorney General Russell quietly arose and objected to the proposed testimony on the ground that she was in fact interested In defeating the will, and, after an examination of an hour, a writ ten agreement in the possession of the father of the witness was brought to light to which ail but three of the heirs were direct parties. By that agreement those clauses of the will which were beneficial to the heirs were ratified, but the remain Ing and more serious portions, which prevented the passage of three-quarters of the property affected to the heirs, were repudiated. Thus a division had been made by the heirs of the entire estate in ad f

i

vance of the decision of the courts upon the validity of the will

Thereupon ex-Attorney General Russell made an argument that the witness had offended against the provisions of the will by becoming a party to an i

ment by which some of its substantial pro visions were destroyed. Hence her testimony as to transactions with the decedent was incompetent.

Just as Mr. Russell was about to sit down his associate, Mr. Root, handed him a small silp of aper. A great crowd was in the courtroom watch ng the interesting case, not one of whom knew what was on that siip of paper. Mr. Russell, think ing that Mr. Root was calling his atrention to some su stion which he had omitted in his argument, read. to his profound amazement, these werds: f

i

“You are a darling: a allah!" This additional suggestion was not urged by Mr. Russell to the Surrogate. The proceedings cul= minated in a decision of the Surrogate in accord ance with the theory Mr. Russell advanced—that the contestants, having ratified a pertion of the will by solemn agreement, were dJebarred from further disputing any of its provisions. The incident illustrates how even as cool and self-contained a man as Elthu Root has his me ments of enthusiasm in a lawsuit, and how gener ously he can accord praise to his associates when tn his judgment they merit it.

PRECINENTS AND PRESIDENT MAKERS. PRESIDENTS AND FRIEOTIDRGANR dR L322 RSENS. James M. Griggs. the (Georgia statesman whom an inscrutable Providence selected from a bulging list of eligibles to direct the Demo cratic party's fight for the next House of Rep resentatives, seems to be measuring boldly up to all the opportunities and privileges of party jeadership. For the last six weeks he has been busily electing Democratic Congressmen in scores of districts in which in previous cam paigns they have perversely failed to stay elected. Only one State in the T'mion has so far escaped the ravages of his rainbow chasing tabulations. That State is Oregon, which in considerately elected two Republican Repre sentatives last June, before Judge Griges's staff of forecasters had got settled in comfortable office quarters. No elections have happened since: so that the judge and his accountants have now nailed down a safe majority of 32 in the next House of Representatives. Having recaptured the popular branch of Congress with so little real exertion, it is not surprising that the Georgia leader has now turned to other triumphs, more distant and more strennous. Congress maker he is now; President maker he is to be hereafter. Evident Ir he realizes that what the party needs in these days of divided opinion and clashing ambitions §s a new Warwick: and to that larger role he hss been naturally drawn as one exactly suited to his expanding genius. In an interview in this e¢ity last Thursday Judge Griggs un bosomed himself for the first time of his plans for the Democratic party's future. He has al ready chosen a Presidential candidate for 1904; and in view of Colonel Bryan's three separate announcements this week that he will not open Iy seek a third nomination, the Georgia Presi dent maker seems also to have chosen the psychological moment for taking the public inte his confidence. Edward M. Shepard is the prince of the blood on whom the mighty War wicks approbation has fallen. Here is the new king maker's tribute to Tammaay's defeated candidate for Mayor: I regard Mr. Shepard as one of the ablest and strongest of our national leaders. 1 consider him the most promising in connection with the future leadership of the party. While it is a long while in advance for predictions, I regard him: as a most likely man for the Democratic nomination in 1904. He is a statesman like ané intellectual leader and one who has always been regular as regards the party or tion. His splendid services to the

&aniza’ in the State and his brilllant campaign BR or last fall have attracted the attention of Democrats all over the Union, and thy are looking to Mr. Shepard as a man of the future— swho is broad, able, statesmanlike, young and He has the confidence of without antagonism. al: and would be the man for the party to be proud of Judge Griggs's references to Mr. Shepard's regularity mot very much in evidence in 1896—may be a little overstrained. Bat the sincerity and sobriety of the rest of the d two terms and a half in Congress, and probably be entitled to be clasted as a “spaster in the arts and strategy of national poli Amusements. Amusements. ties. But we fear he has been somewhat over: rash in putting his Presidential candidate in the field a year and a half ahead of the time set for choosing delegates to the next national con vention. Other prospective nominees will be stirred to envy by this open confession of preference. Some of them have heard the story that Mr. Shepard recently guaranteed to raise the Democratic Congress (Committee a cam paign fund of $20.000. Will they have the malice to mistake the motives of the Georgia statesman’s announcergent, and sneeringly sug gest that new is the time to send a $20,000 subscription to the committee's chairman and get in return an 1 O U nomination for the Presi dency let us reason together about automobiles. Surely the heartrending tragedy of Thursday, on the road between Trouville and Paris, should be sufficient to set us thinking. Nor was it solitary and unique. The record of the last wear or two has been marked with ominous fre quency by disasters differing from this one in degree rather than in kind, all pointing the same unmistakable moral. That is, the deadly peril of excessive speed in running automobiles, We have had almost daily demonstrations of that peril in an objective sense, the menace and the injury to horsemen and to pedestrians on the road. The shocking deaths of Mr. and Mrs. Fair, and a long train of accidents of like nature. show the peril to be subjective, too. a menace to the occupants of the automobiles themselves. These are the circumstances: Mr. Fair's au tomobile was one of those big racing machines built expressly for high speed, similar to the White Devils and Red Ghosts and Ring streaked Grascutuses which have become 0 unpleasantly and dangerously common upon our roads. Tt had a speed of seventy-four miles an hour. and at the moment of the disaster at Kt. Aguilin was actually running at sixty-two miles an hour. Now, that is a rate of speed at tained by only a8 few express trains on rail roads. Men lay a substantial roadbed, as level and straight as possible. Upon it they securely fasten ponderous steel rails. to serve at once as track on which the wheels are to run and as guides and guards which shall keep the wheels from swerving. They protect these rails from obstruction, and daily inspect them to make sure of their continued integrity. Upon these rails ther put an engine constructed of steel and weighing a hundred tons or more, and run it at the rate of sixty or seventy miles an hour with comparative safety, though never without a keen appreciation of the peril that resides in even so well guided and perfectly controlled speed. Yet here are men masking machines of only one-hundredth the weight of railroad engines ard making them in part of slender wires and inflated rubber tubes. They ran them not upon special tracks, but upon the common roads with sll their irregularities and roughness, with rats and holes and loose stones, and with now and then sharp stones or broken glass which may puncture or cut a rubber tire; and they run such machines, en such roads, at as high a speed as railroad engines make on their special Iv constructed tracks! It is madness. It is doubly madness. For it wonld be perilous to run any machine at such a rate on such roads, and it would be perilous to rum such a machine at such a rate on any road. The mania for high speed in antomobiling is indeed a mania. The mile-a-minute auto mobile is a thing which ean be used to its full capacity only at a peril which is little short of suicidal. To make such a8 machine is to make either a useless or a dangerous thing, and such a thing is not to be commended, The commendable and admirable automobile, the automobile which has “come to stay,” and which is a beneficent triumph of modern in vention. Is the machine which is capable of making moderate speed and of sustaining it for a long time, which is strong in construction and trustworthy in action, which is comfortable to ride in. which is easily controlled, and which is not offensive to nose, to eye or 1o ear such a machine, in brief, as Mr. Fair's was not. Of that fact it should not take many more such tracedies to convince even the most speed-mad mind. The appointment of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes has naturally led to some speculation concerning his view of the constitutional statas of our colonial governments. The belief that he is in harmony with his predecessor and the majority of the court. and that the President would be unlikely to appoint a man without satisfactory knowledge that he would not re verse the policy to which the government is already committed with the permission of the court. leads to discussion of the propriety of ex ecutive consideration of such questions in se lecting judges. Some few voices have heen raised complaining that this was equivalent to “packing the court.” Such complaints, how ever, are apparently made in mere wantonness of opposition and without serious thought. The leading organs of anti-imperialism, Iike “The Springfield Republican” and “The New-York Evening Post,” which are most irreconcilable to the insular decisions, accept the selection of a justice likely not to reverse them as perfectly proper, and the former declares that the Presi dent has taken “only such an advantage of po “litical position as any President of whatever “party would take under similar circum “stances.” That is perfectly trae. We do not believe any President ever picked out judges with any definite assurance that they wonld decide par ticular cases in a particular way, but probably no President ever appointed men whom he re garded as opponents of vital pelitical and con stitutional principles held by himself. Indeed, no President would be worthy of his trust who would thus carelessly establish the domination in the Supreme Court of doctrines which he himself believed dangerous to the country’s wel fare, as President Roosevelt undoubtedly be lieves the extension of the constitution to the Philippines, making them an integral part of the United States, would be. If that is “pack ing’ the court, President Lincoln was a shame less “packer.” Ex-Secretary Boutwell, in his “Reminiscences of Sixty Years in Public Af fairs,” tells of Mr. Lincoln's anxiety on the death of Chief Justice Taney to secure a suc cessor who would uphold the measures of the government for the suppression of the Rebellion, Though perfectly loyal, Chief Justice Taney had not done this. He had, for instance, denied the power of the executive to suspend the writ of habeas corpus at a time when such exercise of power was considered necessary to check dis loyal movements in Maryland. Mr. Boutwell Says: When the nomination had be2n made, I said to Mr. Lincoln that I was very glad that he had decided to appoint Mr. Chase. He then sald: “There are three reasons in favor of his ap “pointment, and one very strong reason against “ft. First, he occupies the largest place in the “public mind in connection with the office, then “we wish for a Chief Justice who will sustain “what has been done in regard to emancipation “and the legal tenders. We cannot ask a man “what he will do, and if we should, and he “should answer us, we should despise him for “it. Therefore, we must take a man whose “opinions we know. But there is one very “strong reason against his appointment. He is “a candidate for the Presidency, and if he does “not give up that idea, it will be very bad Gr “him and very bad for me.’ At that time Mr, Lincoln had been re-elected to the Presidency. Perhaps Mr. Lincoln was too much of a poll DEATH IN EXCESSIVE SPEED. “PACKING THE SUPREME COU'RT™ NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. SATURDAY. AUGUST 16, 1902. tician for some of our moralists to-day, but it will be seen that he carefully planned for the sustaining of his own policy by the court. It happened that his selection was disappointing, for when the legal tenders came to the test. Chief Justice Chase secured a decision that they were unconstitutional, though he himself, as Secretary of the Treasury, had issued them. Subsequently, however. a court differently com posed reversed this decision. The reversal has been the occasion of re peated charges of “packing” which were far from justitied. Justices Strong and Bradley were well known to favor the legal tenders. They were appointed the day the adverse de cision was handed down. Congress, before the case became an issue, had created an additional circuit, and the President had absolutely noth ing to do with Justice Grier’s resignation, which made the other vacancy before the decision was handed down. The membership of the court was therefore not changed because of the legal tender case. The President was told of the impending decision two weeks in advance of its publication, that the Treasury might pre pare against any money panic, but Justices Bradley and Strong were already indicated as probable appointees, being the most prominent lawyers in their States. Perhaps the court was never any nearer “packing” than in the appointments of Marshall and Story. At the very end of his term John Adams made Marshall Chief Justice, as the legacy of Federalism to the victorious Repub lean party. He was a constant source of irrita tion to Jefferson and a bulwark of nationality against the flood of disintegrating tendencies of Virginia Republicanism. When in 1811 Madi son placed Story in the Supreme Court, he did it with the distinct purpose of counteracting Marshall's influence; for Story was considered a strong Republican. On the bench, however, he came under the influence of the great Chief Justice, and did not fulfil the expectations of his party friends. Monroe was equally swayed by political considerations. When Brockholst Livingston's seat became vacant, many of the President's most earnest supporters urged the appointment of Chancellor Kent. But Kent had heen a Federalist, a worshipper of Alexan der Hamilton: and though the Federal party was dead, Monroe could not bring himself to appoint a man holding such constitutional doc trines, and the office went to Smith Thompson. (Chief Justice Taney was appointed by Jackson with the very definite knowledze that he was thus putting a supporter of his bank policy in high place. and all through the middle period care was taken by those in power that slavery and State rights should have a majority in the Supreme Court. Such “packing” is inevitable. It is the one point at which the court hecomes responsive to public opinion. Happily, ence on the bench. justices with life tenure are able to disregard all external infinences, even to the point of condemning their own political actions, like Chief Justice Chase.

HENLEYS BHBERE AND THERE. Oarsmanship is becoming more popular and more honored in Yaris every year, and to so high a pitch has the enthusiasm risen that plans for a French Henley have heen taken up. In England the Thames is the one river upon whose surface the famous contests of the rowers are decided. In France few international jousis and tournaments in lightweight shells are fought out except upon the surface of the Seine. A Gallie Henley near the gay French capital would not be impracticable to arrange, and all Paris would turn out to enjoy it. The historic streams, the Thames and the Seine, have no rivals as arenas of carsmanship in Great Britain and France. In the United States the condition of things is as different as could well be imagined. New-York is the Lon don and the Paris of America rolled into one. But the Harlem River is too small a stream to be used for a true high class Henley, and the Hudson below Poughkeepsie is too easily ruffled for a yearly carnival. In the centennial year Philadelphia welcomed representative secullers and other wielders of the oars fromm many parts of the Union and frem the further side of the Atlantic; but for various reasons no American Henley is likely to be established in Pennsyl vania or New-Jersey for many years to come. The New-England Thames and Connecticut and Lake Quinsigamond, in Worcester, have seen a great number of memorable meetings of the professionals and the amateurs who grip the ashen blades, and in the Middle and Western States the ambitious athletes who seek individ ual or associate honors have been busy upon many a storied stream and lake of wide re nown. Below Mason and Dixon's Line the heartbreaking struggles of rowing have en listed few earnest devotees. The climate in the Southern States may have been too mild for the hardiest exploits of the oarsmen. But from Maine to California, north of the cotton belt, this country has produced a large number of sturdy fellows who knew how to row bravely, and in a country so bountifully provided with lakes and rivers there has heen no lack of opportunity for the display of their prowess. Yet there is no American Henley. The people of this State are strong in the belief that the Hudson at Poughkeepsie would be the best headquarters in the whole republic for such an annual gathering of the champions of the oar. But New-England and Pennsylvania might object, and perhaps the West also. It would he difficult to reconcile the jarring claims. France may have a Henley before we ont ana hare Robert Bonner, who owned and drove so many trotters of amazing speed, could never abide a pacer. He had a hearty contempt for the mixed gait, the trot in front and the run be hind. and would have nothing tn do with the “sidewheelers,”” as pacers are often called. He insisted upon the square, straight, trotting ac tion, but the pacers have hosts of admirers in spite of the dislike felt for them by Mr. Bonner and by the other worshippers of the THE KRIINDAY TRIRINE bold, brave trotting type. It cannot be de nied that the swiftest pacers can outstride the fleetest trotters. But is it not, afer all, a ques tion of a crosshreed against the true blood?

‘MR. KIPLING'S HOMILY. A CANDID FRIEND'S LONG SHOTS —ENG LISH ADMIRATION FOR PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT OPTIMISM RESPECT ING SOT'TH AFRICA.

monsRane Attention ANE ar public opinion. He seldom says aught that is flattering 10 the vanity of Englishmen, but in yariably what it is wholesome for them to know ghbout themselves, although they would not take it from any foreigner, tolerant as they may be and indifferent as they often are to hostile ex pressions abroad. He is the most outspoken of candid friends, and whatever may be his vaga ries of judgment, he is sincere and never dull. Xo other Englishman would have ventured to gioe at the nation as indifferent to the supreme question of imperial defence and as preoccupied with “the flanmelled fools at the wicket, the muddied oafs at the goals”; and although his message Was misinterpreted by many as a gen era! attack upon national sports it challenged agtrention and forced men to reflect upon the immoderate interest taken by the masses in cricket and football as played very largely by the professional elevens and teams. Neither cricket nor football has peen abandoned in con sequence of Mr. Kipling’s “winged words"; vet public judgment has been directed by them un erringly to the lack of balance and proportion petween holiday recreations of the plaving fields and businesslike equipment for the battle of empire. He had sent out, if 1 may use an other Homeric phrase. a “long shadowing spear” as a warning that those who before excelled gli over the earth in valor and manliness should pot be unworthy of their race sary men In England. He has a unique talent or delivering to the nation messages which influence

The speech which Mr. Kipling has been mak ing in opening a rifle range at Sydenham is guoted and commented upon as though he were Prime Minister of England. He did not renew pis strictures upon national pastimes, but en forced with characteristic Arcllery and direct pess his warning against public ignorance of the handling of firearms. “We 4o not wait” he remarked, “till a boy is eighteen years old and thinks he would like to be Lord Chancellor pefore teaching him the alphabet. Similarly we eught mot 1c wait till a boy is eighteen and thinks he would like to die fer his country be gore we give him a rifle and teach him 10 stand straight in a line. We should catch the boy dright and early, when he is about twelve” Mr Kipling humorously minimized the danger in this country and in this climate of producing “e race of inflammable barbarians.” “The man sho can read and write,” he contended. “does pot persecute his neighbors by immediately writing a book. Similarly a man does not run gbout the streets firing his rifle because he is 2 volunteer: nor does he fail into military for mation whenever he wanis to get on an omni puz.” With amusing persiflege of this kind he won sympathy for a serious plea for systematic rifi= practice by the bulk of the male population of the Kingdom. anf closed his homily with this jronical passage: “So we may hope that the next time the nations see fit to love us with the love which has found such perfeet expression during the lasi thirty months, we may not be wholly ignorant of one or two of those less spiritual gecomplishments, which, if they do not sebure aFection, at least command respect.” Mr. Kip line's judgment is sometimes untrustworthy, but he is a sure marksman when his heart is in his work. This racy little speech will be quoted and remembered for a long time. It can hardly fail to multiply the number of rifie ranges in England and Scotland, and to impart a pOwWer ful impulse to a national] movement for sys tematic gun practice.

Mr. Kipling is. indeed, the prophet of the sirenuous life for men and nations. At a time when even the strongest men in England are showing signs of scfiness, when Lord Kitch ener has made tne most magnanimous peace in English history. and when even Mr. Chamber jain has ceased to follow his cold, calculating judgment and has become almost as flexible ard credulous in South African policy as his irreso lute colleagues, Mr. Kipling is under no illusions respecting the lessons of the war and the proper equipment for fighting the battles of empire. He has perceived the real source of Boer strength in the prolonged struggle cgainst ovar whelming numbers and superior mechanism of war. It wae the marksmanship of the individ nal burgher which defiled month after month the concentrated energies of an army of over two hundred thousand British sclidiers, sup ported by scientific armaments, unlimited finan cial resources and the wheel and cog of mili tary system. While British taxpayers had been paving decade after decade the costs of unex ampled natienal armaments on land and sea, the Boer cattle breeders of the high veldt had been training themselves by outdoor life, rough rid ing and gun practice for a defence of their coun try so effective and withal so economical as to challenge the wonder and admiration of the world. Mr Kipling does not need to wait for a report from a royal commission in order to tearn the most important lesson of the war. He knows already that the secret of the marvellous Boer defence was the burgher, with keen sight, accustomed to riding and the use of firearms, inured to hardship and privation, and, above all, trained as a rifleman to hit the mark. He per celves the new application of the oid truth that battles are won by the man behind the gun, and forecasts the superiority of national arma ments in the future, when the main bedy of citizens are taught from childhood to use re volver and rifle intelligently and enabled to become trained marksmen. The Xipling call to arms implies that even if Waterioo were won on the playing flelds of Eton, the battles of the empire in future will be fought in the rifle ranges of the United Kingdom.

If Mr Kipling represents the strenuousness of the soldiers of the empire, he has an Anglo Saxon ally in President Roosevelt. The homily delivered at Sydenham to the accompaniment of the rumble of railway trains and the buzzing of a cinematograph machine appears in print simultaneously with a racy account of the Pres ident’s shooting bout at Oyster Bay with Com mandant Snyman; and precept and practice are happily combined. Americars, I fear, do not fully appreciate the admiration and affec tien which their President commands in Eng land. Other Presidents have been respected by virtue of their character and high office, but Englishmen have not been attracted by their personal traits. They like to read stories about President Roosevelt because he is a man after

thelr own hearts and ideals—a wellbred man fi ondon August 6. afr. Rudyard Kipling is one of the few neces Sovth Africa is accepted as stable and perma nent because he made it after establishing in the Soudan the reputation of being cold, inflexible and unsentimental. If Lerd Roberts had nego tiated it, suspicion would have been aronsed that the Boers had heen let off too easily by a mag nanimoms soldier. whose own nobility of nature tended to make him the credulous dupe of un scrupulous intrigners. As it is, tha peace is regarded as permanent, since three extremely practical men—Lord Kitchener, Mr. Chamber lain and Lord Milner—united in sanctioning it. There are some ominous signs of future trouble in South Africa; but there is a prevaliing feel ing that the Boer leaders will be loval to their compact and that the country will rapidly set tle down and become heartily British and one of the most homogeneous sections of the em pire. Analogies are drawn between South Af rica and the United States at the close of the Civil War. and the hopeful conclusion is reached that magnanimity in triumph will prove a statesmanlike policy and will bring together hostile races which have learned in war to respect each other. The anc logies are, however, t 15 ao 13 Lake Champlain to-merrow. My amily is sti ag there

Representatives were present from New York, New-Jersey, New-England, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Indiana, Virginia, Ohio, Mich igan, Illinois, Louisiana. and messages of regret were received from nearly every State and Territory, and also from Canada. In the vear much informa tion was gathered respecting ancestors of the fam fly, who eame to America from the midlands of England about 1630-'50. They were mostly relatives, and in one group were six brothers Their de scendants are numerous and widely dispersed.

An Interesting feature of the gathering was the interest taken in Keuka College, which was found ed and endowed largely by members of the family. It was resolved to make the college to a still larger degree their countribution to the cause of higher education. The women of the reunion organized and lald plans to do effective work in beautifying the campus.

Many interesting papers were presented and ad dresses delivered, presenting data in support of the tradition that has always existed in the family that William Ball. the ancestor of Mary Ball Washing ton, wife of Augustine Washington and the mother of George Washington, was the youngest brother of Alling Ball, who settled in New-Haven, Conn., thus making nearly all existing branches of the family blood relatives. The next reunion of the family will be held in August, 1903, at Keuka Park, N. Y.

TO FILL CHAIR AT BANGOR SEMINARY. Bangor, Me., Aug. 15 (Special).—The Rev. Dr. Henry Woodward Hulbert, of Hudson, Ohio, has been elected to the chair of ecclesiastical history in Bengor Theological Seminary, recently made vacant by the death of Professor Levi L. Paine, and will come to Bangor In September to enter upon his duties. The speeial committee which was appointed at the annual meeting of the trustees last June has been busy all summer considering candidates for the place, and this week it decided upon Dr. Hul bert, who is regarded as a man of profound schol arship and great executive ability. Nothing has

been heard lately of the proposition to move the Bangor seminary te Bowdoin College, Brunswick, although some believe that such an arrangement will be made before long. In recent years the at tendance has been dwindling, reaching its lowest ebb in 1801. In the last vear. however, there has been some gain, and, as the institution is well en dowed, its friends belleve that with good manage ment the former flourishing conditions can be re established and the seminary kept in Bangor.

THF ACTOR COLONY crIPRBAY'S RECORD AND TO-DAY'S FORECAST. THE PASSING THRONG. No little discussion has already been aroused by the statement of Arnold White that the food served in the German navy is of better AS TO GER- quality, or at least 8 better cooked, MAN COOK- than that served to British sailors, ING. and new S. R. Sims, who in Amer ica, at least, seems to De Most use ful in furnishing cause for eomment, has been led into a denunciation of British cooking in general, on land as well as at sea. “Mr. Sims wouldn't have raised a protest out of me.” said D. McK. Forbes, of St. Louis, at the Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday, “if he had confined his remarks to English cocking. Eighty per cent of English cooks, he wrote, cannot make a cup of coffee. A Daniel come to judgment! Sixty per cent, he continued. cannot serve an egg out of the shell. Still a Daniel, though a kind and liberal one! But then he launches into praise of German cook ing, declaring that cheap and appetizing dishes are prepared there in the humblest homes, and meat and vegetables are cocked to delight the stomach. It's an old trick of the mind, this, to imagine fair that which we know not of. No doubt Mr. Sims has eaten good German cooking in good hotels, but he has spent little time in these ‘humblest homes’ of his. or he would not speak of appetizing dishes. Meat is ruined there in the cooking. and vegetables are made a mess. Crede experto! A German scholar can, when all others fail, discover a Greek root, but not even a German could sometimes dis cover the ingredient of some vegetable preparation in these humble German abodes.” Is it pessible we are to have again a string of court rulings on drunkenness. as was the case a vear or so ago, when an epidemic A NEW of decisions left men quite in doubt RULING ON when they were drunk and when DRUNKEN- sober?

The magistrate ruled that the prisener could not have had any malicious intent, as he was drunk and did not know wnat he was doing. He was liable, he ruled, to civil damages, but not criminal sen tence. Most psople who have had dealings with drunks. even these so drunk that they didn’t know what they were doing, will probably be of the opin fon that nene the less they could display ne small degree of maliciousness.

THE SERVICES ATTENDED BY MANY WELL KNOWN PUBLIC MEN.

Detroit, Aug. 15.—The funeral of Senator James MeMillan took place this afternoon. It had been proposed that his thousands of employes should march in procession behind the hearse bearing his body to the tomb, and that there should be a mili tary escort and a public funeral. In obedience to the wish of his family this was given up, and the ceremonies were simple. The services were held at 2:80 o'clock at the Senator's late home, No. 215 Jef ferson-ave. The large house was erowded and mally persons were unable to gain admission. Both branches of Congress, the State Legislature and all departments of the State and city govern ments were represented. Governor Bliss was pres ent with several of his staff. The Senatorial dele gation included Senators Hanna and Foraker. of Ohio: Kean, of New-Jersey; McComas. of Mary land: Allison, of Iowa; Lodge, of Massachusetts; Burrows, of Michigan; Fairbanks of Indiana; Cockrell, of Missouri, and Gallinger, of New He mipshire. The District of Columbia was repre sented by Commissioners MacFarland and Biddle. The Rev. Alfred H. Barr, for some years the Sena conducted the services. The burial was private. Followed only by the family and a few intimate {rtends, the body was taken to Elmwood Cemetery and placed in the McMillan mausojeum, which was filled with beautiful flowers.

As 2 mark of respect the car works here which Senator MeMilian built up and developed were ciosed to-day, and in many other plants in which he was interested work stopped at the hour of the funeral. On the lakes the hour was observed by the cessation of work. Every wheel on the Detroit and Cleveland and Detroit and Ruffalo steamers stonped at 2:30 o clock for ten minutes. tor’'s pastor, THE SERVICES ATTENDED BY MANY WELL KNOWN PUBLIC MEN.

TAREE NOVELS. 16 WAR IN AMERICA AND A PRIVATE FEUD ABROAD. ADV ALY, J— ONE BUT THE BRAVE. By Hamblen Sears. 12mo, pp. vi, 30. Dodd, Mead Co. «THE DEBATABLE LAND” A Novel. By Ar thur Colton. 12mo, pp. 312. Harper Bros. CASTLE CRANEYCROW. By George Barr Mc Cutcheon. 12mo, pp. 331 Chicago: Herbert S. Stone Co. Mr. Sears is unconventional in one respect at Jeast. He does not wait until the end of his novel to marry the hero and the heroine thereof. He has them safely made man and wife in his third chapter, while they are still total strang ers and require to be brought up to the cere mony at the point of a pistol. Obviously there are the beginnings here for a spirited narrative, and “None but the Brave” does not disappoint us. It is a story of the American Revolution, and, as usual, hero and heroine are on opposite sides in the conflict. They are brought together by accident on a lonely road at night; in the tavern which presently witnesses their mar riage the young soldier about whom the action chiefly revolves engaged in a bloody duel, and not long after. having bestowed in safety his unsought spouse, he overhears a momentous conversation between André and Arnold, and forthwith embarks upon series of thrilling adventures. He and two friends are dispatched by Washington on the track of a spy, who is betraying both the American and the British armies. Before their purpose is accomplished he passes through grave perils, only to be taken prisoner at last, and to lie disabled by an ugly wound. The part plaved by his wife while his enterprise is going forward, out of consid eration for the reader, we leave undescribed. It js sufficient to say that this is a wholesome and well told story, forming an excellent addi tion to the mass of fiction which has been ac cumulating so rapidly of late around the Revo Jutionary period. The author of “The Debatable Land” is also unconventional, and he is so not in one aspect of his story alone, but from beginning to end. He treats of the Civil War, giving us, before he reaches a battlefield, some pleasant glimpses of New-England neighborhood. There he pro vides his heroine with a stalwart and masterful jover, but she is herself only half convinced that she wants him, if, indeed, she gives any serious thought to the matter at all, and her friends are mostly certain that they don’t want the two to marry. Then there appears upon the scene the inevitable rival, a musician sith rather a whimsical nature. Mr. Colton, for his own part, rather likes a whimsical vein, and cultivates it assiduously in this book. The rivalry between Morgan Map and Gard Wind ham follows a course differing decidedly from that te which we are accustomed in similar situations in the average novel The war is brought into the book, and that, too, is treated swith a fresh touch. Mr. Colton has not yet got his whimsicality well in hand, and his novel is. therefore, not quote so strong in construc tion as we would like it to be. But we ap preciate the faint flavor of originality com municated to “The Dehatable Land,” there are some really engaging characters in it, and we find the book, when all is said. readable and pleasing This is, by the way, the twelfth and fast volume in the “American Novel” series. “Castle Craneycrow” opens with the alarming £tatement that ‘it was characteristic of Mr. Philip Quentin that he first lectured his servant on the superiority of mind over matter, and then took him cheerfully Ly the throat and threw nim into a far cerner of the room.” On the next page we learn that Mr. Quentin first made the acquaintance of this retainer of his when Mas ter Turk, as he calls him, was engaged in burg farizing his apartment. The readers may well wonder what is to come after such an introduc tion. All manner of impossible things are to come. The scene is shifted to England, where the hero discovers a suspected murderer in the person of the Italian prince who is about to marry 2a boyish flame of his own. Again the scene is shifted, this time to Paris, and, a little later, to Belgium. Mr. Quentin, in the mean time, falls in love all over again with Miss Dorothy Garrison, and makes up his mind to gave her from the clutches of her handsome Italian. Incidentally, of course, he means to marry the lady himself, and she, equally, of rourse, does everything that she can—in the spproved style of obstinate, though bewitching, peroines in fiction—to put the American in peril of his life and make him bitterly unhappy. Un fortunately, Mr. McCutcheon does not stop at absurdity in his heroine's conduct, but goes on to involve every one in the tale in altogether incredible situations. “Castle Craneycrow” is meant to be, we suppose, a romance of the Zenda sort, but it is not in the least romantic. It is, instead, a piece of crude sensationalism, full of cheap exaggeration and altogether dis appointing. A SE S— MUSICAL MUSH. L FEW LADLEFULS FROM MR. CROWEST. MUSICAL MUSH. L FEW LADLEFULS FROM MR. CROWEST. FHE STORY OF THE ART OF MUSIC. (I.ibrary of Useful Stories.) By Fredarick J. Crowest. mo. pp. 1%. D Appleton Co. Mr. Crowest has before this shown himself 10 be one of the most inept and ili prepared of English writers upon musical subjects; and in this little book he has done nothing to change sritical opinion. He has undertaken to show the “great general reading public” how “the beau sifu! art of music has grown up around us.” Beginning with the origin of music and its practice by the Egyptians, Hebrews and As gvrians, he attempts to trace its development fown to the recent productions of modern com posers. Much originality could scarcely be ex pected in a treatment confined within limits 30 narrow as those set before himself by Mr. Jrowest; but a clear and well balanced narra dve of accuracy and point, with apt and sug gestive comment, could have made such a treat nent interesting and valuable. The authors sritical contributions, however, are those of sne often quite in the dark as to the real significance of things, especially in modern music. His knowledge of musical history is frequently at fault, and he quite ignores the tesuits of modern study on many points. Thus St. Gregory “formed” the authentic and plagad scales from the Greek tetrachords, we are told, though it is now known that Gregory aad nothing to de with the adoption of the Church modes. The ancient and thoroughly ex dloded “Palestrina myth’ apvears in its full 7igor. The Council of Trent, we are told. in 1062 was determined to banish music from the hurch service. The Pope commissioned Pales Tina to compose three model masses upon which Je council would pass judgment. “Music as sepresented by Palestrina triumphed, and he was commissioned to compose masses for the Vatican services. Thus was music saved in the Roman Church”—or at least so Mr. Crowest still believes and would have his readers be deve. His opinions are sometimes as queer #8 his ideas of history. Unlike opera, action is forbidden in oratorio— smotion, expression and dramatic effect being secured by a dependence upon orchestral in 7ention and combination, with the culture and mtelligence of the soloists and chorus. Thus, the sratorio is 2a much higher form of musical art. We cannot resist quoting this gem of thought which is the climax of Mr. Crowest’s discus

of the symphony: ‘The symphony is, indeed, a great reality wonderful realization of the steady growth of ‘mstrumental addenda and treatment of theo

retical musical form. The predominant force and poetical import of the greatest sympho nies astonish even the trained musician, nOW= ever eminent. How they appeal to and strike the ordinary listener cannot be measured. His whole account of the modern movement in music is one that will profoundly stir the thoughtful reader—in one way, if not in av” other. The upshot of it all is that it's not new and that it is not “convincing.” It does not “loiter about the soul” The fine scholarship and thematic treatment which distinguished the works of the great German masters, and make their various scores «0 interesting to the reflective, disappear in this “up to date’ art. Tremendous unisonal sweep of full orchestra, varied with thundering con cussions of instrumental force, yet with an almost entire disregard of contrapuntal re source and play, cannot constitute highest musical art. It may all be effective and it is remarkanle tone colorings, but it is only a re turn to the jovous, brilliant rhythmic style of the “Guillaume Tell” overture. Think of that, shades of Brahms and Tschai and Wagner; and Richard Strauss, kowsky he though Mr. Crowest does not name vou, sees that you. in your almost entire disregard of contrapuntal art, have been returning to Rossini! You cannot conceal it longer. Mr. Crowest has spoken! A SPORTSMEN'S ZOOK. HOW TO BAG AMERICAN GAME BIRDS. HOW TO BAG AMERICAN GAME BIRDS. N AME. Edwin Sandys and T. S. UPLAND GAME. By w LS ier A van Dyke. Illustrated by L. B. Frost, J. O. Nugent and C. L. Bull. 12mo, pp. ix, 428. The Macmillan Company. This, the second volume in the “American Sportsmen's Series,” well upholds the standard set by the first—that on deer by President Roosevelt and others. It illustrates the same high ideal of sportsmanship, the same intelli gence and humanity, an equally readable and entertaining style, and shows equal knowledge of the subject. Mr Sandys is not one of those sportsmen who shoot merely to kill. The sport has much wider meaning to him than study ing birds along the rib of a breechloader. He is an enthusiastic student of their habits, of what seems almost their personalities, of the coun try they inhabit: and he w rites about all these things with keen relish. He finds the quail to be “the best bird that flies as well as one of the ‘most widely distributed. He tells us much about its life, and gives an amusing descrip tion of the dashing and pugnacious lovemaking of the male, the nesting. and the rearing of the voung. In the early season quail shooting is easy. The birds flush almost underfoot, they fiy only moderately fast, and they cannot carry off much shot. Tt is important, if you have a good dog. to let him alone. Avoid all bawling of commands, because the sound of the voice is apt to cause an untimely flush when otherwise the bevy might have lain close. Direct the dog by whistle and signals; birds appear to pay ne attention to the shrilling of a dog whistle. It is important for the sportsman to be master of the rallying call of the quail and imitate perfection. Any one possessed of an ear can easily compass it. Mr. Sandys represents it thus: “Ka-loi’-Hee,” three times repeatec—it is the old hen’s summons, and should be answered by the appearance of her brood. Mr. Sandys does not believe in sticking to the first large bevy found, which may mean an entire day's shooting within the limits of a single farm; “the mere gathering of birds is only a minor part of quail shooting.” Outline 2 route and cover jt all during the day, skirmishing perhaps with half a dozen bevies. The man who hunts too closely leaves desolation in his wake. The time near the end of the season is heloved by the skilled quail hunter. The birds are at their best, and educated in the school of experience, and the sportsman needs his best form. And in winter, on the snow, sport may he had without a gun. The partridges are given a much shorter shrift by Mr. Sandys, who has no high opinion of most of the species. The ruffled grouse is a different matter: he offers many difficulties in the pursuit, and demands rapid, accurate shooting, a quick perception and ready resource on the part of the sportsman. One of his interesting habits is that of “drumming.” a notice to all other males and females ‘within hearing that he is open to an engagement for love or war, usually both. It has been ignorantly supposed that as he stands upon a log and beats his wings he is producing the sound bY¥ thumping upon the wood. whereas he is beating only the air and possibly his own body. He struts, like a gob bler, thrusts his head forward and begins his wing beats, at first slow and measured, then quicker and quicker till the separate beats are lost and the sound becomes like low, dis tant thunder, or like the deep, mufiled roll of a drum. The hest ruffied grouse shooting is in Wisconsin, Michigan and Western Ontario. Of the same family is the prairie hen, of which Mr. Sandys speaks with great affection as yielding the most compiete satisfaction of any of its kind to American sportsmen. He seems to be designed in habits and habitat to suit the gunners’ wishes. He, too, is a sonorous love maker: his lovemaking is done with the aid of a couple of yellow sacs, one on each side of his neck, roughly resembling half an orange. These he can inflate to an encrmous size, and collapse them at will, their emptying producing a boom ing sound like the lowing of distant herds of cattle. With these saes inflated till they are nearly as large as his body, the amorous bird struts and postures in a way that gives him a startling, not to say devilish, effect. It is un fortunate that the reckless killing of this bird by unprincipled “sportsmen” bids fair to exter minate it, notwithstanding its great productiv ity. The ptarmigan, the wild turkey, the wood cock and a number of birds native to the Pacific Coast are the subjects of other chapters, the Western birds being treated by Mr. T. S. Van Dyke. it to From The Athenzum. From The Athensum. There is, perhaps, nothing more certain to turn up than a second copy of a “unique” book. For over four centuries the now famous 1403 edition of the Malermi Bible (Venice) was as completely lost as if it had never existed. Within about a month of each other two copies were discovered—one by Mr. Voynich in Italy, and the other by the Duc de Rivoli in Vienna. Quite recently a third copy has been unearthed by a Continental bookseller, and doubtless other examples will be found in due course. A fine copy is worth at least i3(X). The peculiarity of the 1493 issue is that many of the woodcuts are quite different from those in the 1490, 1492 and 1494 editions; four of these beautiful illus trations are reproduced in facsimiie in Mr. Voy nich’s “Second List of Books.” From The London Chronicle, From The London Chronicle, It is odd to note how many of the Prime Min isters of our days have found time to write things outside politics or political interests. Mr, Baifour, as we all know, has written a portly volume on “The Foundation of Belief,” which has gone to the eighth edition. To tike Queen Victoria's premiers, the first, Lord Melbourne, wrote a comedy called “The Fashionable Friends.” His successor, Sir Robert Peel, did nothing outside politics, but Lord John Russell wrote a tragedy called “Don Carlos” and essays on everything and anything. Of Mr. Gladstone one can only say that he wrote everything except a tragedy or a comedy. Lord Derby published a translation of the Mad, which was successful enough to bring in the funds necessary to found a prize at Welling ton College. Mr. Disraeli’s novels are not yet dead: “Coningsby” and ‘“Lothair” still pay book sellers to have on their sheives, while Lord Rosebery’s “Napoleon,” as a book, was the comet of the season. Neither Sal'sbury nor Palmerston has written any book cuiside poli tics, but if we coyld gather Lord Salisbury’s articles from “The Saturday Review.” when he and Vernon Hareourt and FitzJames Stephen wrote for that paper, they would make a veoiume well worth the reading.

CURRENT TALK OF THINGS PRESENT AND TO COME. “Kate Bonnet” is not to be the last of the late Frank R. Stockton's novels, as has been gener ally assumed since his death a few months ago. The Scribners announce that they have in prep aration a new book from his pen, entitled “John (GGayther’'s Garden, and the Stories Told There in.” It is a book that he arranged for with the publishers some time ago—not a posthumous raking over of his manuscripts—and in the de tails of which he took much interest. It con tains several stories, all connected by a thread of narrative that gives unity to the volume. he next volumes in the English Men of Let ters series, published by the Macmillans, as the English announcements disclose. will be on Ten nyeon, by Sir Alfred Lyall; Ruskin, by Frederic Harrison: Jane Austen, by H.

Mr. Kipling's own ilustrations to the “Just So Stories” will be between twenty-five and thirty in number, and a look at the proofs chows that they are inceresting producticns, more on ac count of the complex imagination they display than for power of draughtsmanship. The stories are animal stories, usually with the purpose of showing how anybody becomes somebody b¥ doing something—how the kangaroo got his legs by jumping, for instance. The pictures are drawn in pen and ink, and ‘heir elaboration generally requires the page or so of humorous description that he gives to each one. They will doubtless be the subject of much attention when the beok appears. The late Kegan Paul, publisher, is on record as declaring that publishers are not slow in recognizing genius. He thought genius was hard to find and that masterpieces were not wandering about seeking in vain for publica tion. Apropos of this question “The London Spectator” believes that genius may exist still if unrecognized. “It would be absurd to sup pose,” it says, “that it is impossible that there can he any one of genius going about in any of these worlds unseen and inglorious—just as absurd as it would be to say that there cannot be an undiscovered star in the sky. But is it not possible, and indeed logical, when you look at the past, to say that ‘genius is hard to find’ because we are clumsy at finding it? That is surely true of the majority of men. People take notice of what they expect to find. They look out for what they know to be there. It is not true of everything that is new that It is strik ing: indeed, striking is precisely what it gen erally is not. When vou are told that anything is a ‘striking departure,’ or ‘quite unconven tional.” or ‘out of the beaten track,” and when every one agrees that this is so, it is generally the case that what Is received as a ‘striking departure’ is in reality merely further Progress on a perfectly familiar path. When a thing is really new nobody notices it. People’s minds by gradual use and custom, get trained to run in certain grooves, and to look at this and that and the other from certain fixed standpoints. And nobedy, or aimost nobody, abandons a fixed point of view quickly or readily. When, therefore. it happens that there is a general and ready acquiescence in accepting a writer's views or style, or a painter's manner, or a poet's line of thought, as ‘new,” ‘original’ ‘striking.’ and all the rest of it, in nearly every case that means that there is in reality nothing new or original or striking in what is seen or heard or criticised.”

Lafeadio Hearn will publish fn England in the autumn his translation of “One of Cleopatra’s Nights,” by Theophile Gautier. The widespread interest in Martinique, caused by the disaster to Mont Pelée, induced the Harpers to issue fm mediately after that event a new edition of Hearn's “Two Years in the French West In dies.” and this edition is already nearly ex hausted. The book describes with graphic and poetic trutn the beauties of the island of Mar tinique. Sidney Lanier’s story of his mocking bird “Bob” is to be reissued by the Scribners in a new and cheaper edition, but with all of A RB. Dugmore’s color illustrations. An American publisher the other day took up a recent copy of “The London Academy” con taining an article ridiculing the present fashion of American advertisements, particularly those of publishers. “Like a good many other English criticisms of things American,” said he, “it im plies a certain lack of ability to extract the beam from their own eyes before attending to the mote in the eyes of others. Here ‘The Academy’ quotes for its readers’ amusement such a caption as this: ‘Four Cooling Novels’; and then this:

Did you ever reflect that the best winter fic tion is just as good in winter as in summer? Take the work of an author like Mr. Blank. His new novel was not written especially for

summer. But for summer reading, it is one of the wittiest, most entertaining novels possible to find. “Now, let us turn to some of our English cousins’ book advertisements in prominent kEng lish periodicals. I find without looking very far this: If you want to read an ideal story during vour holidays, choose any of the following; it does not matter which. “And in another column I see in bold type the heading, ‘For Summer Reading,’ followed by an appropriate and refreshing title, ‘Our Lady of the Ice.’ The English publishers seem to have the idea all right; certainly that last advertisement is not without its ingenious real ism. Perhaps they don't carry it out always with quite so much cleverness as their Amer fean brethren, but there isn't so much difference, perhaps, in the general aim of advertising, which is to present a picturesque proposition to the reader in such a way that he will be attracted by it, and then go and act on its suggestion.” “England, thy name is story!” is the quota tion aptly prefixed to a little volume completed by Katharine Lee Bates and Katharine Coman, entitled “English History Told by English Poets,” and just now appearing from the press of the Macmillan Company. It is the product of an excellent idea. Say the editors: Poets are spirited historians, They enlist imagination and sympathy in the cause of the fading past. They turn the task of memory to pastime. They 1re not always accurate, but neither are more sedate chroniclers. The dul ness of a record was never yet proof of its veracity.

But there was one of them so strangely marked a8 to excite her astonishment. There were raised letters on one side of that egg, resembling the characters used by the blind, as clearly defined as the face of types, that read. “Glory to God in the Highest. Prepare for His coming, for the end draweth near.” To say that the citizens of that hamlet were amazed would but feebly de scribe the quality of the sensation that possessed the souls of the entire community. They were fairly paralyzed with an indefinable fear and dread of the awful doom that seemed impend ing.

NEW FRENCH BOOKS, TWO POPULAR NOVELS BY MM. VAL DAGNE AND DENZELE—A STUDY OF EIGHTEENTH CENTURY SOCIETY. Paris, August 8S. A book which is having a particularly good sale during the present holiday season is an emotional novel called the “Confession de Nicaise,” by Pierre Valdagne, published last week bv Ollendorff. This somewhat naive pro duction is read with curiosity by all the women who feel obliged to provide themselves with fashionable “flirts,” and as sedately balanced women like to obtain glimpses of the thoughts and feelings of their more frivolous sisters, and Frenchmen are always glad to read what their wives, sisters or sweethearts are reading, it seems likely that M. Valdagne's highly modern and advanced confessions— which are to those of Jean Jacques Rousseau very much as ab to cider—will have something more sinthe i3 re watering than the evanescent success of a me place romance. Nicaise, a Parislan woman of twenty-two, married to a worthy middle aged business man, whom she wedded in compliance with the wishes of her parents, feels obliged to engage in suc cessive flirtations; first, with a wealthy and In world: secondly, with a young and fashionable physician, who wins her affections almost imperceptibly by initiating her into the modern idea that emotional love {s quite as much ont of fashion as Stendhal; thirdly, with a gallant general, and, fourthly, with a great banker of sixty-five summers, whose costly gifts are accepted at the psychological moment when her husband, owing to excessive speculation, 1s financially ruined. There is some thing detestable in all this. but the reasons and excuses supplied by Nicalse, and the self of her impressions of social customs i tellectual man of the analysis and pastimes, are highly amusing. Quite another story Is that told by M. Jean Denzele in “La Maison vide. just published by Perrin. Here we have a pure minded emotional parrative of a young husband, with an affection ate wife and son, who is suffering from an in curable disease that gives him only three years to live. He becomes almost an intruder among the living, and resolves to fmpart the best of his own existence into that of his son. There ta nothing morbid about this strange story, which M. Gaston Deschamps, the literary critic of “The Temps” considers on= of the most stirring recitals that he has read for a long time. M. Victor de Bled, in his volume ‘La Société XViiie Sidcle” published by Perrin, gives glimpses of the doings of the diplo matists, the grand ladies, the courtesans and the favorites in the days of the Fronde. The period of the “Dictatorship of the Fan’ is related in a light, sketchy vein, supported, nevertheless, with ponderous documentary evidence. The author has collected fresh anecdotes about Voltaire, Mme. de Pompadour and other famous figures. There are letters written by Voltaire in reply to Cardinal Fleury, and by the Comte de Ségur during his mission to the Court of Catherine

11. M. de Bled's conclusions are that by far the ays were women. Cc. 1B.

Another instalment case, in which an Italian says he was made to suffer for the purchases of a man now in prison, has been brought to the courts. Frank Penta is the alleged debtor, and Philip Stromberg, of No. 333 Grand-st_, is the creditor. Stromberg says that Penta owes him a balance of $34 on a gold watch, and Penta, through the Umberto Legal Aid Society, declares that the watch was purchased by one Mercurio, now in Sing Sing. To this Mercurio's wife agrees, and Mercurio is to be produced in court on a writ of habeas corpus to testify in the case. Stromberg’s side of the case, as told to a Trib une reporter yesterday, is as follows. He has a contract signed by Penta, showing that the Italian bought the watch about three months ago, and paid several instalments on it. Strom berg, after demanding a full payment or the re turn of the property, brought suit. He declared that the Mercurio case is an entirely different one. Penta declares that he has a letter addressed to Mercurio and himself jointly, and also that Stromberg, after first agreeing to settle for £3, raised his demand to £15. Penta is a poor coal dealer, whose place of business is at No. 213 Sullivan-st. He says that his first intimation of the affair was in a letter received last May, informing him that he and Mercurio had pur chased a watch from Stromberg. When he told Stromberg that Mercurio owed: for the watch he declares that he was laughed at, and later served with a summons. The unusual thing about the stories told is that Mercurio has been in prison for more than a year, whereas the sale, it is said, was made in May.

SEVENTY, WOULD BE POLICEMAN. Police Commissioner Partridge yesterday de nied the application of Edmund A. Rockwell, of Brooklyn, for special officers’ badges for S. M. Grouse and ten other residents of the neighbor hood in which the Latimer murder cccurred. It was the intention of those living in the neigh borhood to arm themselves and watch for burg lars. A vigilance committee was formed, which called on Colonel Partridge and asked for special officers’ badges. “I told them, at that time,” said Colonel Part ridge yesterday, ‘‘that they would get protection, and if they wanted to do their own pairolling I would give them the special officers’ licenses. I told them, however, that they would have to put in their applications, and have them acted on in the regular way. “Mr. Rockwell made the applications shortly afterward. Since that time the excitement has cooled down considerably. I called on the cap tain of the precinct for a report on each of the candidates for a shield. Six of them could not be found. Four others said that they no longer wanted the shields. The remaining one is more than seventy years old.” FREED ALLEGED INSANE ALIEN BELLEVUE OFFICIALS MUST EXPLAIN TO ELLIS ISLAND AUTHORITIES. Bellevue Hospital authorities will be called on to-day to explain to the United States immi gration authorities why they allowed an alien who had been sent to the insane ward of that institution for safe keeping to leave the hos pital with her husband before the Commissioner of Immigration had passed on her case and given her permission to land. The patient was Maria Celombo, who came here on August 4 with her two children, on the steamer Palatia, of the Hamburg-American Line. The Marine Hospital doctors found the children suffering from measles. As the Ellis Island female wards are filled, the children were sent to Riverside Hospital, the mother being allowed to accom pany tnem. The hospital people were told to keep her under surveillance, as she was still an alien in the eye of the law until she had passed the Ellis Island examination. The day after her arrival at Riverside she developed signs of insanity, and was sent to the insane ward at Bellevue for observation. Mean while her husband came on from Chester, Penn., and went to Bellevue and claimed her. She was allowed to go with him. Now Commission er Williams will call on the Bellevue authorities to produce her. If they do not bring the woman back an inspector will be sent to Chester to ar rest her and return her to Ellis Island, where she will be taken before the Special Inquiry Board for an investigation. The authorities at Believue say that they ad mitted the woman to the insane pavilion on August 6. On August 8 she was discharged, her husband agreeing to take care of her. Her release, as she was an alien, was a mistake, the Bellevue officials not knowing the circum stances. It was said that a full report and ex planation had been made to Commissioner Wiil iams, and that he had expressed himself as catisfied. aL THE APPOINTMENT OF NASON. THE KINGS REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION IS RESPONSIBLE. William Hepburn Russell, Commissioner of Ac ccunts, says that if there is anything improper about the appointment of George H. Nason as an examiner of accounts in his department, the blame should rest primarily with the Brooklyn Republi can organization, which recommended ex-Coroner Nason for appointment. As noted in yesterday's Tribune, Mr. Nason was appointed as examining inspector of accounts in Mr. Russell's department. He was indicted for malfeasance in office as Coroner of Kings County along with Edward B. Coombs. Coombs was sent to prison, but the case against Mr. Nason was not considered strong, and he never was brought to trial. Mr. Russell said yesterday that Mr. Nason was appointed on the recommendation of Lieu tenant Governor Woodruff, Jacob Brenner and other well known Republican leaders in Kings, and that he knew nothing of Mr. Nason's past record when he made the appointment.

“Nason came here with letters of recommenda tion,” sald Mr. Russell yesterday. ‘‘They spoke in the highest terms of Mr. Nason. There was one from the regular Republican organization of Kings County, signed by Chairman Brenner of the exe ecutive committee, and there was another from Lieutenant Governor Woodruff. 1 did not know at the time that he had ever held public office, and the responsibility for the appointment rests upon the Republican organization of Kings County. 1 shall look into Mr. Nason’s record, and if circum stances warrant shall ask for his resignation. It may be that there was nothing in the charges. The fact that Mr. Nason's colleague, Coombs, was found guilty reflects no discredit on Nason. If he had been guilty probably he would have gone to nrison too Borough President Cantor is almost daily in re ceipt of letters from vacation school teachers or thelr friends, who complain about the cutting down of their wages. A letter which reached his office vesterday said, among other things: I have with me a young college graduate and former student at Cooper Union Art School. She came all the way from Andover, Mass, on the acceptance of her application, to teach drawing as an “assistant teacher’ at $250 per day for the six weeks’ term. It cost her about $12 to get here and return, and her commutation ticket from this point (Passaic) cost her 50 per month. When the payroll was made out she was put down at $1 50 per day, and on August 5 was dismissed on the excuse that her class was too small. What control does a teacher have over the number of her students?
