Mr. Kinkel threw out a hint that he was gunning for tho official who caused air shafts to bo located on tho side of tho battery in question.

He expressed a determination to find out who was responsible, declaring that the shafts should never have been placed there.

R9r. Wed. l'rice. Price. The Food Exposition Borcruor Flower Commanded by tUe Press for His Action, It is evident that the Brooklyn ring and its allies havo determmod to prevent the peoplo of Brooklyn from having an opportunity to vote on tho question of union to Now York.

The Brooklyn ring knows that, in the present exasperated temper of Brooklyn taxpayers and rent payers, the people would probably vote by a large majority for consolidation, if only in order to get rid of the cormorants that devour their substance and grow rich on public jobbery. With brazen effrontery, therefore, the ring and its tqpls propose to deny to the people the right married to Dr. Farlin on September 20, 1878, in Michigan, and a pretended judgment of divorce was granted to her (the defendant) on February 24, 1883, in Cook county, 111. Dr. Farlin said he had married Cora Tanner, but Carty's bill, legalizing the Columbian day expenditures bytho common council and the board ol supervisors and which was sent to the legislature last night is as follows: State of New 'ouk, Executive Chamber, Albany, N.

February G. 1893. To the Senate Senate bill No. 67. entitled "An act to legalize, to ratify and eonHrm cer tion acts of the county of lungs and its board of supervisors and the public ofaccrs of said county, and certain acts of the city of Brooklyn and its board of aldermen and the public officers of the said city in the joint celebration of the completion of the soldiers and sailors memorial arch and of the discovery of America, held In the city of Brooklyn and county of Kings, in October, 1892," is herewith returned without approval, for the following reasons: First The bill appears to be in violation of article 3, section 16, of tho constitution, which provides: "No private or local bill which may oe passed by the legislature shall embrace mora than one subject, and that shall bo oppressed in the title." This measure legalizes and ratifies certain acts of tho board of aldermon and public officers of tho city of Brooklyn, and also certain other acts of the board of supervisors of the county of Kings, thus embracing two subjects Within the samo local bill.

Second Tho bill is of questionable propriety, and, in my judgment, its enactment would bo adverse to tho best public interests oi the city of Brooklyn, the county of Kings, or, indeed, the entire "state. Tho legislature is often called upon to legalize and ratify acts of officials done In some critical emergency without precise authority of law, or to correct certain technical failures to comply with tho full provisions of law, either through inadvertence or ignorance. But the ease in question presents a particularly flagrant violation oJ law committed under cir cumstances which scarcely justify wholesale ratification by the legislature In the city of Brooklyn the expenditures were incurred without authority of law and in violation of the city charter. So far as tho actions of tho board ol aldermen and public officers of the city of Brooklyn are concerned, the circumstances" were about as follows: The common council, recognizing its inability to incur bills against tho city without warrant of law, desiring to make provision for the celebration of the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America, passed on March 21 last, the following resolution: Resolved, Tint tho corporation counsel bo and hereby is authorized and directed to prepare a bill to be presented to the legislature for its passage, authorizing the controller of this city to transfer the sum of $30,000 from the revenue fund to the contiuKent fund of the board of aldermen, the said sum, or so much thereof as may be necessary, to be nsed in payment of expenses to be incurred by said city for the celebration of the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America. No such legislation was ever obtained, but the committee of aidermen appointed to arrange for the celebration and directed to confer with the mayor, wcut ahead and made the plans and inourred tho expenditure without autbority of law, and apparently with tho knowledge that they had no authority of law for their action.

HORTOK into the witness' family history. The process disclosed the fact that Dr. Farlin had married a wnicn tne voters in a tree country are supposed to possess of deciding as to tho management of their affairs. They propose to prevent the passage of the bill providing that the people may vote upon consolidation, and to continue their grasp upon the throat of Brooklyn, not yet sufficiently plunged into debt to suit the pockets of the ring. In order to mislead tho public as to the question at issuo, tools of the ring are busy talking against consolidation.

Mr. Quigley, the Democratic leader in tho assembly, is quoted In a Sunday paper as giving various reasons why Brooklyn should not be united to New York. Tho reasons are meager and weak, but even if they wore sustained "by the wisdom of a Solomon they would have nothing to do with the oase. The question now before the legislature is whether tho people of Brooklyn shall have the right to vote on consolidation, not whether the two cities shall be consolidated. Tho question is whether the Brooklyn ring shall succetd in denying to the peoplo of Brooklyn the rights of American citizons.

That is all, and it Is well that the peoplo ot Brooklyn should remember that it is all. and should not permit themselves to bo confused by dust throwing.

Notwothstanding this provision, bills exceeding 250 and aggregrr.ting altogether about $50,000 were incurred by this committee of tho board of aldermen, without contract and without bids being invited by public advertisement. Moreover, tho charter again provides that no bill or claim shall be audited unless the same bo made out in As a matter of fact, most of the bills were not made out in items, but were stated in most general terms, and were thus received, audited and paid by the auditor, mayor and controller.

Again, the charter prohibits the mayor from signing any warrant or other obligations unless a proper Toucher therefor shall have been first examined and certified to by him.

The governor declares that this expenditure of the public money was a flagrant violation of law in circumstances that do not justify ratification by the legislature.

It was not only unauthorized, but the manner of incurring it without contract or public competition was in defiance of law, and expenses were certified to in a lump, without tho possibility of knowing whether thoy wore iionestly incurred, lie is doubtful whether the passago of tbo bill would not relievo the authorities of civil and by Thes. iSowman, i onon st ment: ANTON colonel Hinn taat no aid not see how his testimony could do him any good in the suit now were unjustifiably broken down and ignored by aldermen and public officers the city. The restrictions imposed by tho charter on tho expenditure of public money wore too familiar features of municipal government to permit a justification of these illegal acts upon tho round of ignorance. Such ignorance would inexcusable and such lax administration of public afi'airs and such careless custody of public money ought not to bo encouraged by hasty legalizing acts of tiie legislature. The circumstances under which the county bills were incurred by tho board of supervisors were scarcely more favorable for a legislative justification of the illegal ats than those under which tho city bills were incurred.

I not only doubt the propriety, as It affects the public interests, of legalizing and confirming such careless and criminal acts of public officers, but I question whether the bill would not, if enacted, prevent any successful criminal prosecution against officials who may At tne i ijoncort, satnraay UYenlnK.

New Y'ork; against them by tho grand jury. The counsel for the county. John B. Meyenborg, at once declared that he would bring no such suits. Tho corporation counsel, against whose statement of the law as it was, no unwarranted expenditure would havo been made, withheld the statement and shows no dispositon to bring the restitutioiiary suits.

On the contrary, a bill has passed tho legislature legalizing tho expenditures. The bill emanated from the office of the mayor and from that of tho corporation counsel. It is a confession of the illegality of the expenditures. A correspondent asks the Eagle if it is not an ex post facto law and, therefore, unconstitutional No. Such a law is one which makes that an offense which was not an offense when committed.

A law can be passed making that no offense which was an offense when committed. Ex post facto remission of offense is constitutional. It is the reverse of ex post facto creation of an offense. Tho moral quality of the appeal to legislative clemency is Arthur Winslow, Mrs. Janios Furey.

TIIE STATUE OF FATHER ilAUPTaiAXX. for Savins: tUs Comity money. The board of supervisors hold a meeting yes terday afternoon, Gsorgo Ivinkel, supervisor at large, presiding. Tho most interesting business ol the session had to do with the proposed compromise on tho part of the county with Slary Nolan, who had brought suit for damages, alleging that a wall of the Third Gat ling battery stands on ground bolonglng to her. At their last meeting tho supervisors decided to give Mrs.

Nolan SlfiOO for the ground and allow her tho privilege of using the battery wall in question as a party wail for a building sho is about to erect. Yesterday Sup. Hughes got this resolution rescinded. He had served on a spocial committee appointed to adjust tlie matter, ho said, and had thought that the terms of tho compromise as above stated were right when tho committee reported. Subsequently his attention had been called to tho danger that might ariso to the battery if in caso of a riot tho rioters should gain possession of tho udjoining building, which will havo tho battery wall for a party wall.

It would bo easy enough to punch holes in tha battery wall. John Y. McKane wanted to know if this could not be done even if another wall were built alongside, and Sup. Hughes admitted that it oou'd, but declared it would not be so easy. officers ot tne sam city tne joint celebration of the completion of tho soldiers and sailors memorial arch and of the discovery of America, held in the of Brooklyn and county of Kinss, in October, eighteen hundred and ninety two.

The people of the state of Now York, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows: Section 1. All acts of the county of Kings, of its board of supervisors, of tho committees of Baid board and of the other officers of said county, and also all acts of the city of Brooklyn and of its common council, and of the committees of said common council and of the other officers of the said city, in the appropriation of moneys, in the incurring of liabilities, in the making of afrreements or contracts and in the procedure of the payment of all expenses it: the matter of the joint celebration of the completion of the soldiers and sailors' monument, erected pursuant to chapter three hundred and thtrty n'ue of the laws of eighteen hundred and eightr sercn. and tb.3 acts amendatory thereof, and the discovery of Americi held iu the said city on the twentieth aud twonty lirst days of October, eighteen hundred aud ninety two. and in holding such public celebration, are hereby lesalized, ratified and continued with the same force and etfcct as if all of such acts done iu the appropriation of moneys, in the of liabilities, in the making of agreements or con'racts, in the proceaure of tho payment of all expenses, and in the hoMins of such celebration, had beeu and were therefore previously expresely authorized by law. But nothing in this act contained shall be so construed as to warrant or to confirm the amount paid or expended on any contract, agreement or claim, which was in fact false, or in fact unjust, or in fact ineuuitable, or to obvious and the character of the transaction is unsffectod.

The thirty one indictments were for crimes or misdemeanors. Crimes are large misdemeanors. Misdemeanors are small crimes. The former carry more than six months nr a year in prison. The latter cannot carry moro than that.

The indictments are for tlie incurring of bills without authority of law. That is tho fundamental fact. An incident of the bills is their excessiveness, but their excessiveness is only decoration, not substance. In their excessiveness resides tho jobbery, but the jobbery is not the cause or occasion of tho indictments. It is only an incident or consequence to be brought ou; in evidence, whereby the character of the transaction will cast light on the character of the mon involved.

On this account thetbill to relieve the spenders of money here will also the indicted parties here. This has been denied sincerely by ignorant men and with stalwart lying by mon not ignorant. Tho latter denials have iiet lamentable exhibition of the degradation which political peril or political partnership works in official minds when plunderinz is brought to the test of law. The signature of Governor Flower to the bill will insure every one of tho indicted offond rsfrom trill, to the knowledge of all lawyers and by the admission of all candid lawyers.
