A REPUBLICAN BOW. CABLE ITEMS. OFF THE TRACK. BROOKLYN AT AMHERST. STODDARD AND ROSCOE.

Alderman Richardson sitting solemnly in front of Mrs. Doctor Anna E. Park, who, with BUitablo contortions and rgrimacee traces in thin air the whereabouts of this Bosooe this gauzy, transparent lie, the Spaniard Bescoe I 4 O'CLOCK EDUffl most, bnt I told her there was use in trying to get blood out of a stone, eho was doing the very best she could, and I was sure she would be successful by and by. I reported to the Commissioners that Mary was baok and empty handed. In the meantime, however, let me state, I had been told over and over again by General Jourdan thot nothing would come of my engaging Mary Handley, and Commissioner Briggs also had said he had begun to lose confidence in her.

Toreturn: It was on Tuesday afternoon, July 8, that Mary first reported to me on her return from Philadelphia. I told the Commissioners that she had come baok, and that she had learned nothing, and asked what waa their further pleasure. Gen. Jourdan said: "Well, we don't want her any longer." I asked: "Then do I understand that yon want her discharged!" Gen. Jourdan replied "Yes, we discharge her." So I went down stairs, but I didn't discharge Hary Handley at all.

I told her that I didn't want ber to get discouraged, but that she must go ahead. Said "Mary you had better go over to tho Twelfth street post office again, and see what you can find. Have you any money?" She replied that she had not, and I gave her a five dollar bill, with which she departed. It was then about half past eleven in the morning. Mary went out and walked along Court street to Fulton, when she missed the bill I had given her, and came back to look for it.

She found it, and got into a Court street car to ride down to tho ferry. As the car turned the curve at Sands street MAItT THOUGHT SHE SAW KATE STODDARD through the baok door of the car She got out at once and followed her. She was going doion Fulton street on the Tight hand side, (and not coming up, as stated by General Jourdan to the preBs, after the event). Mary followed her, a block or two behind her to be sure she was the right person, then crossed over, ond kept abreast of her on the opposite side of the street, met an officer, had Kate taken ohargo of, and at twelve minutes of twelve on the very day that General Jourdan had told me to discharge her, she had Kate Stoddard hi the Station House Now mark WHAT AN "aCOIDEKT" THIS WAS. Mary Handley was hired by me to find Kate Stoddard, and was kept hunting for her until she found her.

She was on her way to the Twelfth street post office to look for her or get information of her when she saw her on the street and had her arrested. Kate was also on her way to that self same post offioe when she was arrested. And remember, too, that Mary Handley had on that very day been pronounced useless by Commissioner Jourdan, and I had been told to discharge her. Suppose I had done so But, my trouble waB nowhere near done yet. When I told Gen.

Jourdan that I had got Kate at last he said the woman I had was not her. He waa Bure it was not her, because she didn't look like the photograph purporting to be of her that had been furnished to him by Lucette Meyers. By the way, about this photograph When I learned that Gen. Jourdan had a picture of Kate I asked him to let me have it, and I would see if Mary Handley could identify it. I put it in the Eogues' Gallery among a DROWNING AND RESCUE.

Last evening at eight o'clock James Wins low, a hand on board the canal boat Sage Scholar, lying at the dock at Harbeok'a Stores, while partially under the Influence of liquor, went into the liquor store of John Olson, No. 167 Furman street, where he met an unknown man who had been drinking in the store, and was in a condition which may be denominated "mellow." Winslow became acquainted with him, and the two got gloriously uU. At Winslow's suggestion the stranger consented to sleep aboard the Sage Sohplar, but late in the evening the stranger, in attempting to go ashore, fell into the water and was drowned before any aBsiatanoe could be rendered. Winslow tried to save him, but failed. He notified Officer McKeon, of the Second Precinct, who arrested Winslow on suspicion that he might have pushed the stranger into the water, but bb there was no evidence to that effect, he was discharged from custody.

The body haB been recovered, and appears to be that of a laborer. The deceased was unknown and a homeless individual, who used to Bleep around the docks. He had on a striped flannel shirt and coarse pants. His body is at the Morgue. ANOTHEB.

Henry Andrews, a seaman, employed on board tho Margaret Varwell, lying at the Harbeck Stores, (near tho spot where the unknown man was drowned,) went ashore last night and got drunk, he returned and in attempting to get on board the vessel he slipped off the gang plank and was drowned. Body not yet recovered. AND STILL ANOTHER. Last evening Arthur St. John, soveu yearB old, who resided at No.

94 Summit street, while playing on eome raf Is of timber lying in Atlantic Basin, foot of Clinton Btreet, accidentally fell into the water and was drowned. The body was recovered shortly afterward and taken to hiB late residence. AND A RESCUE. Thomas Cagne, a sailor employed on board the Alabama, lying at Martin's dock, accidentally fell into the river at six o'clock lost evening. He was rescued by Officer O'Keefe and some laborers.

OUT OF TOWN ARRIVALS. One of the New York papers a day or two since noticed the moving in of immense truck loads of Saratoga trunks and other small cottages, and therefrom inferred that the out of town "season" was waning.

THE EX CHIEF. Mr. Campbell's Farewell Address to the Police Force. A Survey of the Situation The Men Complimented and the Commissioners Referred to. The following farewell address of Chief Campbell to the ponce force of this city bears date of yesterday, and is hereunto appended Office of the Chief of Police, Corner of Court aud Livingston streets.

BEETS. 3. Brooklyn, August 22, 1873. To the Members of the Police Force of the City of Brook lyn: 1 have to day received an official letter from the ohief clerk of this department, informing me that by an official order of the Commissioners of Police my relations as Chief toward you terminate at this date, and I am directed to turn over the public effects in my possession to Inspector Folk, who, for this purpose, is constituted Acting Superintendent, and who will be obeyed and respected accordingly. In closing a continuous relation of over three years with the force, I cannot refrain from acknowledging the uniform and hearty co operation which you have manifested toward me, and to congratulate you and myself that we have borne a prominent I may say an historical part in an era which was Btgnaliaed by the return to Brooklyn of the control of her own Police affairs.

I received my appointment originally at the hands of Commissioners themselves nominated and confirmed by the elected Government of the City of Brooklyn, and to those Commissioners, so authoritatively credentialled, I beg to convey the sense of obligation I feol for their constant, thorough and appreciative Bupport and co operation. At the first of our official relationship Brooklyn had declared her confidence in her ability to man and manage her own police, and had just recovered her right to do so. The reciprocal duty devolved on you and mo to prove to Brooklyn that her confidence in the force her own representatives had selected was not misplaced. It will be pe mitted me to remark that bo far as you are collectively and individually concerned, that duty has Deen well discharged. At the start enlisting tho hope, you now, I feel free to say, command the confidence, the support, the respect and even the affection of the orderly and right minded people of Brooklyn.

On the claeses with whom it had been your business punitively to deal, you havo made an impression complimentary by reason of their natural and desirable aversion to you. Of my own share as your Chief in the record you havo written in deeds, I prefer not to speak, confiding my reputation where I have always been safe in confiding the execution of my orders and my plans to your own hands. For your continuous good will toward me, and for yonr reinforcement of my plans and humble labors for the unvarying co operation with me which you have shown, when left to your own oonBtruotion of your orders uninterfered with by counter directions issued behind my back I desire to transmit my hearty thanks. Nearly every undertaking, outside of our routine and ceaseless work, in which we have jointly labored, has been crowned with a success satisfactory to justice and to the pardonable pride public ofnoers have in the vindication of their own labors, and of the theories on whloh thOBe labors are conducted. Divided councils, an ambition apart from the public interest and contradictory courses, may have marred the progress of police work at times.

We have the comforting consciousness that none of these meretricious features have marked our direct relations, official or personal. Moreover, in tho character of the population of the city, which we have been set to guard and protect, we have found a moral support and recognition which have made good tho admitted disparity between our numbers and our onerous responsibilities. In thiB my last words to the force, I would renew my acknowledgment of your intrepidity, your obedience and courtesy to me at all timen, and would transmit my beat wishss for your present and future welfare and happiness. Patrick Oampbeli, Chief of Police. Having issued the above order, the Chief closed his relations to the force by turning over hiB office and its effects to Acting Superintendent Folk, as has been already putliih3d.

AMONG THE WHITE MOUNTAINS. Mr. Bocclicr, President Grant, Lord Duficrin and Some firooklynUes. An occasional Eaole correspondent writes from the Glen House, in the White Mountainc, Items of local and larger interest. He says that a good deal of amusement was created by a rivalry between Bev.

Mr. Beecher, who ia stopping at the Twin Mountain House, and a Mr. Milligan, propri etor of the Glen House, as to which of them should first capture President Grant. Mr. Beecher rod fifty miles in a coach to a point in Maine to meet the and come back stating that he was all fixed and would first stop at the Twin House Hearing this Milligan rode in a driving rain to Conway, N.

one afternoon, to intercept Grant and party. He did, and he also neutralized Mr. Bceoher's arrangements, bringing the Executive company to the Glen House first, with colors all flying. The President received muoh attention and was very popular while staying there. A day or two after he started home, Btopping fox an hour or two at the Twin House, where Mr, Beecher finally caught him.

The latter preached there last Sunday to a good sized gathering, but tho report that special trains were to be run for the occasion, or that there was any demand for them, ranch amused the white Mountaineers and annoyed the reverend gentleman, because no snob thing was the case at all. ibe correspondent also says Among the guests here we found Brooklyn friends, Mrs Jos. F. Knapp and family, of Bedford avenue. Last Saturday evening Lord Dufferin, the Governor General of Canada, and bis Secretary, Lieutenant Colonel Fletcher, arrived hero in a very demooratio Disgraceful Scene Among: the Faction' ists of East New York.

In last week's Eaole there was a full ao countof the trouble among the Republicans at East New York, and also a statement as to how a re enroll men was obtained by the Watson men. The fight was between the Association Republicans, led on by Dr. IveB, who 1b their President, and the Watson men, eev enty flve of whom were turned out of the regular association by a few of Ives's friends. The Doctor, knowing he was the weaker of the two, and that Watson would enroll more Republicans than he could, worked very hard to prevent the General Committee ordering the re enrollment, which Watson's men wanted. The General Committee ordered it, however, and appointed a sub Committee, consisting of Oolonej Connelly, chairman, Thomas Cobb aud Geo.

B. Weeks to carry the order out. The first meeting for this purpose was held at tho Collegiate Chapel, in AtlanUo opposite the Howard House, on Friday week loEt, on which ocoasion Free presented a protest signed by a few of his own men against the proceeding. Colonel Connelly said he waa not there to listen to protests, but to do the work the General Committee had ordered him to do, but he allowed Dr. Ives half an hour to speak.

That gentleman used the allotted time to personalities. Finally about 130 names were enrolled, and, on adjourning, it was Btated by the Committee that the next enrollment would take place at the pooket book factory, Bt the corner of Pennsylvania avenue and Liberty, on Friday evening (last night). Will that be the last meeting asked some one. "Yei," replied the Committee. If all the namesare in, it will." Dr, Ives had gathered all his men up round the table, where the names were taken, so as to keep the Watson faction away, and succeeded to a oertaln extent, for in that enrollment he was away ahead of Watson.

In the pockctbook factory, last night, the hall was too large, and he was unable to play thiB dodge, and Watson's men came forward strongly, but still Ives had a thought he had the best of it, and so, after a hundred or a hundred and twenty names had been enrolled, Colonel Connelly announced that the meeting would now adjourn, to meet again next week. THE FTOf COMMENCES. "What," shouted Ives, "do you intend to have another meeting 1 The Committee does, sir," answered Connelly. I protest against it," shrieked Ives, "I protest against it. The Committee said this was the last enroll ment, and I call upon you to keep your word." "Doctor Ives," said Connelly, "thia Committee was sent up here to re enroll the Republicans of tho town of New Lots, and not to re enroll members of either fac tion.

for one of the Committee, intend to oarry out the instructions of the General Committee, which are to re enroll tho Republicans. I have had half a dozen gentlemen come to me and ask me to have another meeting for this purpose, as there are many good Republi cans In the town who have 'not enrolled, and it is the duty of this Committee to havo another session." Ives You've had half a dozen ask for a re enrollment 1 I can point out fifty here who don't want it. Connelly Doctor, if there are Republicans who have not enrolled, it is the duty of this Committee to give them a chance. Ives (excitedly striking his stiok on the ground) I say it's not, this committee's a fraud, a fbadd, (shrieking it ont) and the whole thing's a swindle I Here the Ives men, a great number of whom were negroes, commenced to heel the fioor, shout, yell, and applaud, until the place was turned into a very Pandemonium in lulls at intervals, Ives would be heard Bhouting at tho top of his voice, "It's a fraud Clear above the din was heard the voice of Colonel Connelly "Gentlemen, there will be another meeting for the purpose of re enrollment at this hall on Wednes day evening of next week, and on the Ives, tragically Shame I Shame Colonel Connel ly you are without honor; you have lied to us 1 The din increased and Dr. Ives with his ancient straw hat at the back of his head, the perspiration rolling off his face, which was distorted by rage in a fear.al manner, walked up and down the room, now Btriking hi stick on tho floor and then folding his arms and casting a withering glance at the Colonel and oiher members of the committee as if he would consume them.

"You have lied 1 lied lied ho eld, growing al most unintelligible with madness. "You are a pack of frauds, thieves, tricksters 1" 'inis was oatnea up oy ives touowers in a coarse strain they shouted themselves hoarse, and used the vilest epithets, which were slung at the General Committee and at tho Enrollment Comm'ttee. Major Weeks, of the latter, weakened perceptibly and wanted to conciliate the Ives party, but Connelly, who had never taken his seat, stood as firm as a rock, waiting until he should be heard, and Cobb was inflexible. the Committee," said the crowd. "What the did they send such as you up here to enroll us, YOTT PACK OF THIEVES In a minute Couuelly made himself heard, aud made his previous announcement, but stopped to ask Ives if the Committee could have that hall on Wednesday evening.

Ives has the sole letting of the place, and at first he wouldn't speak, but finally aftor a repeated inquiry on the past of Connelly, replied I don't know anything about the hall," and Connelly said, "Then we can't have the room?" "There's no room for you, you sa' one of Ives's men. Some one said Miller's Hall could bo had, and it was agreed to have the next meeting there, so Connelly said, "Gentlemen, this Committee will meet at Miller's Hall on Wednesday next, for the purpose of enrollment, and on Friday tho primary will be held." Ives, who had been still for a few minutes, now jumped up. saying, "Dawn, down with tho General Committee, to with Dutcher 1 Down with the Com mittee 1 say, to send men up here to abuse the Republicans of thiB town' You have lied to us and deosived us, sir, and I'll protest against it Connolly Doctor, I'm surprised at you 1 ABOUT DTJTOHEB. A painter named Broecuer, who is omployed in the Navy Yard, said, If you come up here ond have another enrollment, well burn you out with brim stone." Justice Wolfcrt, who ia a member of tho Gen eral Committee, shouted "Well fix Dutcher for thiB Stoloff, a blacksmith, also in the Navy Yard said "Yes, let Dutcher run for any office, we'll fix and Wolfort said "Datcher can't have his own way here," and bo the meeting adjourned in most disgraceful con fusion. At the next enrollment there will bo a lively time, and it ia expected that IveB's political goose will be done exceedingly brown.

An Old Brooblynlte Outlines a Itose Colored View of tne Territory. From an Occasional Eigle Correspondent. San DnsGo, August 10, 1873. There are ia the Territory of Arizona 70,000 acres ofunoocupled government land the very beat for agrloulture and grazing, plenty of wood and water; climate unsurpassed. The Southern Paolflo Railroad will pass through the valley.

This land is situated In the southwest part of the Territory. There are some Amor can families settled there, and they desire that all come, or as many as there is land for them to occupy. lean assure you it Is a' country to be desired. Old Camp Goodwin is at the head of the valley. The native name is Publo Veigo.

I am here to receive and convey from two to five hundred families, or as many as can get ready to start horn here on the nret of November to settle there. There will be a large town thore shortly. Here is the most available place to start from. For moro information in regard to this settlement I would respectfully refer to Hon. A.

P. R. Safford, Governor of tho Territory, Tucson, Arizona. The nearest way to thiB place is by steamer from New York to Panama, and steamer to San Diego on this sldo. O.

O. Febbis. Dan Voorhees has sent a little bill to Vigo County, of $8,825 for legal service in a railroad cose in which he was employed by tho County Commissioners, ani it is stirring up a good deal of indignant comnMnt among the taxpayers oyer there, Accident on the South Side Bail road at Maspeth. One Man Killed and Three Injured A Hog the Cause of the Disaster. Yesterday afternoon an unusual occurrence for the South Side Railroad, whioh has latterly enjoyed an exceptional immunity from casualties, transpired in the vicinity of Maspeth, resulting in the killing of a conductor named George McGee, ond the injuring of John Dolan and James Curran, both employes of the Company as well.

The facts relative to the affair are ascertained to be these. The Compauy has a branch diverging from tta road proper at Fresh Pond, upon whioh extra freight cars, after having been unladen, are runand kept standing until wanted for use. A train of these cars, in charge of Conductor McGee, was being backed ofl" the branch or Bide track about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and upon the car most remote from tho engine ha had taken bis stand for the purpose of signalling the engineer. While moving along at a rapid rate a hog suddenly crossed the track in front of the rear car upon sighting which McGee raised his hand to indicate a desire to slacken up in Bpeed, but toe late to avoid running over the animal. As the wheels passed over tho fated porcine it was THBOWN FBOM THE BAIL and consequent upon the bumping and jolting from, one tie to the next, the conductor in an unguarded moment waa hurled to the ground directly in froat of the merciiesB car wheels.

All thiB and the dislodgmonfc of four other care from the tracks was an occurrence of a moment, and so hastily that the engineer, who instantly shut oft upon receipt of the signal from McGee, scarcely comprehended the fact that a part of his train had jumped the track. As to the reason therefore he was entirely in the dark nor could he imagine what causes led to it tiH he had left hiB post and examined into tho matter per sonally. He had been told by a brakeman while running forward that a hog had been run over and was the cause of the train's diversion, but that he could not credit as probable, knowing from experience that larger animals are at times run down, yet a train generally keeps to the rails. THE KILLED AND INJT7BED eomprised fcur persons in all, as stated, the nature of whose wounds are givsn singly as follows George McGee, crushed and instantly killed beneath, a wheel of the car. Had he been able to escape being caught by the break beam, by which he was knock prostrate when he first reached the ground, the man would haveescaped with but slight injury at the most.

John Dolan, brakeman, seriously cut on the head, besides sustaining severe contusions on the body in being thrown from a car the some as the conductor. Hia physician entertains hope for hia ultimate recovery. Jomes Curran sustained comparatively slight injuries, though when picked up he was found insensible, and believed to have been seriously hurt internally. Ha subsequently revived and is reported as doing well considering the narrow chances passed through. A young man named William Titus, on the train at the moment of the run off, escaped with a few bruises only.

The body of the dead man was removed to the flag station, and his relatives, who now reside at East New York, notified of his sad fate. His wife is repoted to be in delicate health, and not in a condition to bo mado aware of her husband's sudden death. Both Dolan and Curran live in the Eastern District, and were taken to their respective home at the earliest movement possible succeeding the catastrophe. TOO LATE FOR CLASSIFICATION.

Wbo Is Boss 1 In Justice Walsh's Court, yesterday, John Carroll was oharged wlh havingoomml.ted an assault on Francis Bennett, by Btriking him with his flBt. Carroll pleaded not guilty, and the matter was adjourned for trial. From Officer Burns the reporter obtained tho following circumstances of the assault: Carroll is bOBSing" a job, that of dredging the slip at the foot of Fartition street, and Cennett was employed under him. Thursday morning Carroll ordered him to leave the dredging machine to go on one of the scows, and this Bennett refused to do. Carroll told him two or three times, and Bennett said he be If he'd he go.

So Carroll ordered him ashore. Bennott refused to leave the dredger, and Carroll took him by tho shoulder and was about to force him oil the boat when Bennett seized a heavy stiok and was about to hit the foreman with it, when Carroll "laid him out" by a soientiflo blow with hia drat. Bennett then went ashore, rushed up to Justice Walsh and got out tho warrant as stated. The trial comes off this week. She Spit me in tne Face."

While thia was going on, Bridget Chapin was ing tho utmost surprise by faoial contortions at Catharine's statement, and intimated by the same in genious proccBB that Catharine was telling tho most abominable untruths.

Wolf Simon, a Polish Jew, is now in Bay mond street Jail on a charge of abandonment and bigamy. In 1871 he resided in New York City, and there made the acquaintance of Rebecca Jacobs, a rather pretty Jewess, and after a reasonable courtship married her. After living in New York for a time he went to Chicago, and about a year ago he left Chicago and came to Brooklyn.

He did not inform Eebeooa of hiB intended departure nor did he over write to her, but loft her in absolute want pf the necessities of life. A couple of weeks ago she heard he was living in Brooklyn, (at this time she had returned from Chicago and came back to her friends in New York,) so she came to this city and found her truant husband living with another woman, in Hudsonjavenue near DeKalb, She at once went to Justice Walsh and procured a warrant for his arrest on a oharge of abandonment, and he was arrested by Officer McMahon and lodged in jail. He is a tailor by occupation. Since he hos been in jail, however, Eebeeca learned that tho woman whom ho was living with, wob not as bad a charaoter aB she at first supposed her to be, but that she was a woman whom he had married in Poland some seven years ago, and whom ho had also deserted, but after his second desertion of Rebecca, had gono penitently back to her wife No. 1.

Justices' Courts furnished a single case of special interest yesterday, the majority of tho business transacted by the magistrates being of the peace warrant order, Justioe Elliott rendered a decision In the alleged burglary case of Thomas and George Furman, acoused of stealing a horce and wagon from Peter Nostrand, and both were acquitted.

Beside this, the Justice exercised his functions further by committing one John Gardiner for the Grand Jury upon a charge of assault, preferred by P. Fltzpatriok.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Your allusion to getting a new minister for Grace Church calls to mind our great want of a rousing preaoher, whose love and lore would enable him to address the people frankly, from his heart, and not from behmd awritotheBtoanyoftener than ho oomea to controverted dootrines. Even then it infringes on cowardice to rely on written evldenoe more than the testimony of the congregation, and a safer method would be to read only sermonB printed by authority, like the prayers. In our day the people and olergy yearn for Something mysterious to about, and bo the iBemplojedforleoturcs on church history, apostolical issumpUoni Bltualiara, (with experiments and illustrations), or any plausible subjeot that will serve to ex ilude the blessed Gospel na mon fl accountability. But, after all, our solid men prefer the earnest words of Dr.

Potter and Dr. Tyng to the spectaole at St. Alban's, and they are positively jammed In the ohurohes of Dr. Hall and Mr. Beecher.

Let us then hope that Graoo Church will bring no priest, but a hearty, fear(esB minister to preach the word of Ood in Brooklyn. JBB.8OT. "Home Rule" House Painters' Strike. PAJflSH AFFAIRS. London, August 23, The Dublin Irishman publishes the new programme of the "Home Rule" party.

Exciting sport Among tne Thousand Islands. From an Occasional Eagle Correspondent.) Alexandria Bay, August 17, 1872.

An incident occurred here on the 15th inst. to a party of fishermen, well worth recording. On the morning of that day four gentlemen from Brooklyn and one from Chicago mado up a party from the Thousand Island House, for a day's sport among the finny tribe. Considering themselves experts they used trout tackle, with eight to eleven ounce rods, and No. saven Limerick hooks, and after killing over one hundred bass, weighing from two to four pounds each, and eighteen wJl eyed pike, the latter all taken by Mr.

of Chicago, and seven being the largest number token in one day this season, the orowning feat of the expedition was the capture, by Mr. Geo. H. Marvin, of your oity, of a mus calonge, measuring four feet aud one inch In length and weighing thirty two pounds, twenty four hours after landing. These fish have become so rare in these waters that only one other has been taken during the paBt three weeks, and great eclat attaches to the fortunate person who gets one.

Larger fish than this are frequently taken with heavy boss rods, proportionately equipped, but I know of nothing on record equal to this on such delicate tackle. Mr. M. played this monster fish very scientifically for about an hour, when our friend Mr. T.

J. Van than whom no more genial sportsman exists, and who has been dubbed by our party the "Great American FiBherman," discovering that there was trouble in the waters, drew near with his boat, rifie in handi to render suoh assistance as might be in his power. It was finally decided to try a little rifle practice, after the manner of killing other gome, should a favorable opportunity occur; and soon word was given that he was ris ing to the surface. No sooner did our friend's eagle eye catch sight of a fin than a sharp craok was heard, and a bullet went whizzing through hiB body. Down went tho fish to the bottom again, apparently unharmed, and all was excitement and suspense for a while, until at last came tho word, "he is rising again;" another crack, and this time the ball crashed through his spine, and "the game was up." I consider this enough of glory for Brooklyn "on this lino," and if any one can beat Mr.

Marvin on it I preBume ho will gracefully yield the championship. We had this splendid fish elegantly decorated with artificial birds, pond lilies and other flowers, and served at dinner to about three hundred gueBts, among whom it was distributed 'jy the hero of the day. A. M. A QUESTION AND AS ARGUMENT.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Would vou please to state why tho publish ers of the Brooklyn City Directory of 1873 74 do not have the names of people residing in Flalbush as well as those of Brooklyn. W. H. P. The question Bcems to answer itself.

The Directory is a City Directory, and Flatbush is not a part of the city. H. complaint is an argument a minor but very Buggestive one in favor of annexation. Manifestly Flatbush ought to bo included in Brooklyn, and much inconvenience results from its remaining out Bide.) MONET MARKET. The Clique Still irianlpulatinc tne Gold MarketPacific mail Aduano iiig llevicw of the markets tor tho Week A Bad Band Statement.

Wall Stbeet, AuguBt 23, 3 P. M. Tho gold bull clique "shinned" which though not a very elegant phraBe is nevertheless illustrative the market up to this morning and then manipulated the loan rate bo as to cause some of the weak holders to spill out their gold. The loan rote fell to 1 per cent, early in the afternoon and as the market closes the premium is being "chinned" into strength again. This "ohinning" is a species of musio often heard in the gold room.

The exchange may be quiet as the grave and business extremely dull when in rushes two or three or more lively young brokers who yell out their bids at the top of their voices, startling everybody, and leading some to think that the bidders are possessed of some important information, The premium advances stocks, and then the "chinning" brokers retire taking only a few lots instead of miilious. Such business has been squelched in tho Stock exchange, and if Borne resolute men would only take thCBe young fellows at their word and hold them up with the amounts they bid for, they would soon get sick of playing that game. The bank statement shows some signs of manipula tion by the clique but the decrease in gold and legal tenders may bo caused by the changing of loans in the banks during the week. At any rate if this l038 of reserve goes on at this rate for a few weeks we shall find the banks down to the limit and then a squeeze in mon ey will becomo quite possible. The following is the bank statement of to day, as compared with that of last week Aug.

With that exception nothing more occurred down to the Goodrich murder to develop the energies of the Chief of Police, and with his management of that case the people are familiar, and I think it don't reflect muoh credit upon his management as Chief of Police.

What the police officials participated in, in making that arrest waB so little, that the IeBS credit claimed by police officials the better. The arrest was an accident a fortunate accident, and gives Mr. Campbell no claim for retention in oBoe as he very well knows. It will be noticed here that Commissioner Jourdan oharges ex Chief Campbell with unfitness for the office," says that "the less Bald about the arrest of Kate Stoddard the better," and flatly states that the arrest of Kate was "an aooident a fortunate accident." Tbis is what Commissioner Jourdan says now.

Let us look back to the 11th day of July, when the same Commissioner made a statement to the press as to the capture of Kato, and see WHAT JOUBDAW SAID THEN. He was addressing the members of tho press, and used iis language in the course of his remarks "Gentlemen, since the murder of Charles Goodrioh in March last on Degraw street, near Third avenue, the police of Brooklyn have continued Bteady and unremitting in their search for the perpetrator of the crime. Amid discouragements and disapppointments, however, tho work has gone perBiBtontfy forward, no effort being Bpared. Not only has Brooklyn been searched, but New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Washington and a countless number of Other smaller places which need not now be mentioned. There were tunes, am lree to say, wnen tue ueparcmonc seemed to be left complotelyin the dark, and there were others when appeared to be on the brink of important discovery.

The primary object of our search was the woman Kate Stoddard but so little was known of her personally, and so totally Ignorant were we of her habits and surroundings, that at the commencement there was next to nothing to work upon. There were people who had seon her, and others who imagined they had seen her but the descriptions obtained were not of a kind always calculated to facilitate capture. Finally, however, we obtained definite information ng her of a descriptive nature, but how vague even the beBt instruction of that nature is, may be judged of by the fact, that although I had been given every feature of her face and body a dozen times over, together with the tone of her voice, her peculiarities of walk, and in addition to all that, got a photograph, I could not identify her even in Hie Station House. That photograph indicates a woman in good condition, while Kate Stoddard as arrested was about as thin aud emaciated as anybody you everBaw. In this connection, let me say that I think the press has been exceedingly unfair to the police in this matter.

Thoy have expected more of us than men could reasonably be expected to perform, and so far as Kate Stoddard was contented we only succeeded, after patient search, in finding one person who knew her positively, but for than six weeks after the murder that person was laid up in bed sick. Until the termination of that period, therefore, her knowledge was of no service to us. That person was Miss Mary Handley, and immediately upon her recovery we employed her on the search. To make a long story short, howover, Kate Stoddard the name she is now generally known by was met by Miss Handley in tho street on Tuesday last. Miss Handley was going to New York and Kate Stoddard waB evidently coming from it, when the meeting by accident took place.

As porn SB she met her, Miss Handley recognized her and followed her until she met a police officer, whom she induced to make the arrest." The reader will notice that there is no charge of inefficiency against any one it is stated that tho "polios" had been unremitting and untiring in then search for one person Kate Stoddard; that only one r.erson could be found who could identify her that person being Mary Handley, and that Mary Handley was the one who did find her at last. JOUBDAN's rHOTOGBAPH OP KATE. Mark, also, the statement of Commissioner Jourdan about the purported photograph of Kate Stoddard which he had in his possession and which was furnished by but of that hereafter. He saya the photograph "indicates a woman in good condition, while Kate Stoddard as arrested was about as thin and emaciated as anybody you ever saw," and saye also, "I could not identify her even in tte st.tlon house." Tho reason of all this, and the only reason of it all Is this. The photograph purporting to be of Kate Stoddard was never taken for her, and she novor had a photograph taken in her life, up to the time of her a rest.

WHO SECURED THE ARREST OF KATE STODDARD? The reader mil also hare noticed that Comm'ssioner Jourdan did not think, at one time, "the leas said about tho arr. a' of Kate Stcddard the bettsr for the police officials," but that he considered that the "polioe" had done well, and that he never onoo mentioned tho Chief of Police in connection with the affair, but said "we1 did this, and "we" did that, and "we" did the other, all the way through. How muoh In point of fact "we" had to do with tho arrest as made, and how much in point of fact "we" did against it all tho way along, will appear further in this article. ex chief Campbell's stobt of the aebest. So Boon as the removal of Chief Campbell had been perfected by the Commissioners the lips of the late Chief were unsealed, He had no longer any oocasion to keep still," but on the contrary having been charged with bad management in the Goodrich matter, it was his duty to himself to cell his story and lot the public judge whether the arreBt of Kate Stoddard waB an' accident" or not, and whether he received from the Police Commissioners that aid and recognition which he had required.

An Eaqle reporter having had an interview with the ex Chief, reproduces it as follows: Reporter Mr. Campbell, yon are charged by Commissioner Jourdan, by implication at least, with mismanagement in the Goodrich oase. Now, I think It time you gavo the public to understand just what you had to do with the matter, and just how you did it. Mr. Campbell Well, I dont know.

Tho woman, Kate Stoddard, is arrested, and the property of the murdered man has been found in her possession. What more 1 Eeporter I behove, Mr. Campbell, from what I have beard, that you were opposed all along in your efforts to arrest this woman, by Police Commissioner Jourdan especially, and by tho Police Commissioners as a Board. Mr. Campbell Well, I guess I'll tell you, if you will let me tell it in my own way.

Eeporter That's just what I want you to do. Go ahead. LUCETTE METEBs'8 ABBEST. Mr. Campbell So soon as the body of Mr.

Goodrich was discovered I detailed two detectives, Folk and Videtto, to investigate the case, and they went to work upon it. Among other articloB found at the house of the murdered man was a memorandum book, which waB handed to me by Captain Cassidy, and in thiB book I found four lines of writing, written in a female hand, and Bigned "Kate Stoddard." This woman, I Baid, is the one I want. But there was no sort of description of her to be found anywhere, or any one to bo seen who had ever seen her. A day or two afterward I received on anonymous letter informing me that a woman named Luoette Meyers, who worked at No. 22 Orchard street, New York City, could tell me something about the case if I would get her, I got her, as you know, and what she knows about the case everybody else knows.

I arrested har, not as the woman I wanted, not as Kate Stoddard, by any means, and soon found her to be a "parrot that never talked" simply because she knew nothing. I got through with her very quick indeed, and set myself about FINDING THE WOMAN I WANTED. Having heard that the female, Kate Stoddard, had worked in a straw factory in Broadway Bomewhere, and that she had at one time been an inmate of a woman's home in New York, I began the search of all those establishments, one after the other. We found traces of her here and there, always under the name of Kate Stoddard and always answering the description I had of her aged about twenty five, light hah and light eyes. But we could track her to no spot.

At last I learned that a former roommate of hers, by the name of MAES HANDLEY, knew her more intimately than any one else. Then I wanted Mary Handley. Finally I got a trace of her, but found that she was sick in the hospital and unable to get out. I told Detective Videtto never to lose sight of Mary Handley, but just as soon as she was well enough to bring her to me. Then I was taken stole, and while I was flat on my back, Tidetlo bought Mary Handley to my residence, but I was unable to see her, and told Charley to take her down to the office and see if they could make use of her knowledge there, Bnt they made no use of her information, and when I got well and came to the office, the first thing in my mind was to find Mary Handley, and to put her on the traok of Kate Stoddard.

I naked for Detective Folk, Nobody knew where he was. I asked for Detective Tldetto, The same answer, i asked for Detective Corwin. I oonld not get hold of my detectives. THE FOBOE HAD BEEN SET AGAINST ME. Finally, however, I succeeded in getting Mary's address, and I Bent for her.

She came, and by the time I had talked to her an hour I made up my mind that this woman could find the other one if the other one was to be found. I went to the Commissioners, Commissioner Brlgga only being in at the time, and told him that I wanted to hire Mary Handley to work in the Goodrioh case, that I was convinced she oonld identify. Kate Stoddard, and that I believed she could find her. Mr. Briggs told me to use all the means in my power Or at my command to discover the murderer or murderess of Charles Goodrich so I hired Mary Handley and set her st work.

Mary heard that Kate had been In the habit of mailing letters at the Twelfth street post offloo In New York. There Bho went and there she staid day in and day out, for over a week at a tlmo, reporting to me and being encouraged by me all the time, to continue her eearoh. Finally, she heard that a woman answering Kate's description lalleft word for her letters to be forwarded to Philadelphia. I BENT MABY TO PHILADELPHIA in company with Officer Boaob, and the two remained there a week, resorting to all sorts of devices, with decoy letters, to spot Kate, but without avail. They reported to me doily, and finally I wrote "There must be something wrong.

to return on Monday. I have heard that an effort will be made to name onr new post "Mallory," and I desire to say that no man who gave his life in the canse we held so dear, is more worthy the honor than Captain Mallery. It was my good fortune to be iBtunate with him front boyhood, and a more admirable character, a better rep xesentative of the real hero, the Christian, and the gentleman never came under my observation. After caving served his time doubly out im the Fourteenth militia at home, and being sometime retired from service, when the old regiment was recruiting for the war, a message from tho Colonel was sent to him to his place of business that hia services were required, he immediately reported for duty, and remained at his post, prominent in every battle in which his regiment was engaged, until at the battle of Greve xon (Second Bull Run) he sealed bis devotion to his country with bia life. Ho commanded, tho Color Company.

His last words were, perhaps, to me: "Colonel, the Qre is slacking on our front; I. think we can go ahead." He fell immediately after, and fills an unknown grave on tho unfortunate Held. I earnestly recommend this choice of a name. It will gratify bis tost of personal friends, and the first action of the new post vail be to do honor to the memory of a line officer of this city, than whom none are more deserving.

Then I asked her, pointing out tho General's picture, "Did you ever see that pereon before 1" She answered, "no I never did." Said Ia not that a picture of Kate Stoddard MBry replied quickly, "Oh my no. Why Mr Camp bell, Kate is onlv twenty five years old. Thia woman is older. Kate is a blonde. This woman 1b not.

Besides look at that necktie, and the cut of that sleeve I Those styleB have not been worn for ten years baok. No sir, it is not a picture of Kate Stoddard." And now to return to the thread of my story when I told Gen. Jourdan that I had Kate Stoddard, he laughed at me and was sure I was mistaken. He stoutly averred that the woman in custody was not Kate. Then he remarked that ho know where Goodrich's watoh was.

I asked him where, and he said that it was in a pawnshop in Eighth avenue, New York. He asked me if he hadn't better get it out. I told him I guessed if it had remained there so long it wouldn't hurt it any to stay a while longer. Well, now that I had Kate, what to do was to find her residence, where I was sure I should get all Goodrich's property, I puzzled my head night and day how I could discover where she had lived. She had refused to tell me, although I had tried in every possible way to get it from her.

All at once it flashed upon my mind to have every house in the city searched for a woman who had been missing since Tuesday morning, July 8. WHOSE IDEA WAS IT Reporter Right here, Mr. Campbell, allow me to in terrupt you, with a question. Mr. Campbell Certainly, what is it? Eeporter Was this idea of searching every honso in the city your own, or was it suggested to you by some one else Mr.

Campbell I never got a hint, directly or indirectly about it from anyone. It was my own idea, and the result of long hours of thought on the matter. Reporter All right. I wanted to know just that thing. You Insisted in keeping Mary Handley at work and she found Kate, and you invented this device yourself.

Go ahead, now. Mr. Campbell So I had all tho reserves at work at once, and, to cut a long story short, before ten hours had passed I had found Kate's residence and had pos session of Goodrich's property. Then I telegraphed for General Jourdan and Mr. Briggs.

Both came to headquarters and I Bhowed Goodrich's watch and some other of her property to the Commissioners. Gen. Jour dan said Well," and that's all he ever said. Now, that's my story. Oh, I forgot to tell you, that tho Commissioner had actually begun to have Mary watched by one of tho force, Finehout, who went to board where Mary was boarding, but she found it out at once, and that spoiled their game." Eeporter Well, Mr.

Campbell, the fortunate acci dent" by which the arrest of Kate Stoddard has been made, would appear to have been the result of hard work and one idead intent. Mr. Campbell Call it what you will, you havo there tho facts so far as my connection with the matter is con cerned. mb. Campbell's fitness.

Reporter Well, Mr. Campbell, have you read the in terview with General Jourdan in tho Eaole, whore he charges you with unfitness for the office of Chief of Polioe? Mr, Campbell Yes, I have read it, but I had rather say nothing about it as to the manner of my dtcoharg ing the duties of my office. The citizens of Brooklyn are as good judges of that as either Jourdan or and I very cheerfully submit It to them. I have held the office for three or four years, and I know this that I did my very best to do my duty, and I think I have done it with reasonable satisfaction to the citizens of Brooklyn. I was largely responsible for the pro tcction of life and property in Brooklyn, and I think both have been sb Becure as in any city of its size in the world.

I think, myself, that I was as fully competent to discbarge the duties of my position as General Jourdan is of his, and I am sure I have preserved a good deal better temper than he did. I don't dc Biro to get into a controversy on this subject, but I think; at the very least that General Jourdan made a mistake in fulminating charges against me, and I don't propose to fall into another. I leave it to the citizens of Brooklyn with entire confidence. This closed the reporter's Interview with the ex Chief. MT.

BBIGGS'S OPINION OF THE CHIEF. The reporter thought it would be a good idea to get the opinion of Police Commissioner Briggs as to the fitnesa of Mr. Campbell for the office he had held, and found him for that purpose. Reporter Mr. Briggs, you have been a Police Commissioner tor a number of years, and yon know Mr.

Campbell very well. Tell me your opinion of him, and his fitness for the office of Chief Mr. Briggs (Emphatically) I don't think he has any superior in any oity in tho United States. He is especially adapted to the place. WHAT THE COMMISSIONERS ARE DOING IN THE GOODRICH CASE.

The public has now the plain story of the connection of ex Chief Campbell with the Goodrich murder case, and they can easily see that that official has been op posed ail along by the Commissioners meaning General Jourdan end that there is now no disposition to give him or Mary Handley any credit for the part taken by them in the matter. What the public don't know, however, what the Eaole oroposes now to tell them is, what the Police Commissioners, meaning General Jourdan, havo been doing while Chief Campbell was weaving his net about Kate Stoddard and securing the property of the murdered man. It will scarcely be credited, we presume, but we assure the public that the disgncef ul facts are literally and positively true. The story is a short one, but it is full of meaning, and after told will bo duly appreciated by a sensible public. LUOETTE MEYEBS IN THE OASE.

Lucclto MeyerB, whomowB no more about this Base than a child unborn, nor half so much, is the controlling spirit of the Police Commissioners meaning Gen. Jourdan in this Goodrioh matter. The Commissioner thinks "she knows it all," and, while throwing all the obstacles in the way of the Chief that he could, he has been employing this woritan Meyers and following her advice with what success is already known. She it was who palmed off on him an old photograph of some dead female dressed in tho fashions of a decade gone by and, and with this in his eye, of course he couldn't Kate Stoddard after Chief Campbell and Mary Handley had got her "dead to rights." I She it is who, in connection with another female whoBO card appears below, who stuffed him up to believe that Goodrich's watch was in a Fawn Shop in Eighth avenue, New York, when it was all the while safe and sound in the trunk of Kate Stoddard, where Chief Campbell found it. Lucette still continues to make this astute Police Commissioner and amateur detective believe that "Bos toe" 1b something than a myth, and by the nose she leads Jourdan wherever Bheohooses.

Kate Stoddard and the evldenoe of her guilt being already in custody, and placed thus by the removed Chief, aided py Maty Handly, the female detective as smart a woman as can be, end as muoh ahead of Lucette Myers, in qualifications for this kind of work, as Yidooq was ahead of the Count Joannes.

Two Trains Come Together on the Great Northern Railway. TWENTY KILLED AND 1AM INJURED. Londos, AuguBt. ,3. A collision occurred this morning on the Great Northwestern Railway, at Hetford, near Hottingham.

between a freight and an excursion train. The trains were badly wrecked, and the reports thus far received say twenty persons were killed and a large number injured. As there is great excitement at Eetford over the dis aster, this account may be THE GRAIN NUISANCE. Tho vexed question of who should clean out the dook at tho foot of Amity street, ia having a solution at last, Mr. Beard hod the work of dredging the offensive grain from the dock, commenced on Thursday, and it ismaking rapid progress.

The dredge and scows used for this business, were constructed and are owned by Mr. Beard. Tho unusually strong odor which prevailed in Amity and neighboring streets, on Thursday, which was attributed to the action of the heavy rains upon the water in the dock, Btirring up the rotting grain, and causing tho exudation of largo quantities of foul and poisonous gases, was in reality the result of the stirring up given by the first assault of the dredging machine upon the mud, bricks and grain. It appears that, after an, tho grain ia not tho only disturbing element lying in the Amity street dook. The mud of flges seems to have settled there, and, mixed with the grain, a very exquisite concoction is the result.

The dredge raises about one third groin and two thirds mud and piles of bricks. The bricks are so bound together as to require tho action of crowbars to effect a separation so as to facilitate the discharging of the scows. The scows, which are of the largest size and most op proved stylo in their operation, when fiUed are towed to the dumping ground by tho tow boat Joe, Captain M. Stlllman. The dumping ground is just Inside the breakwater at Quorontine Captain Stillmon superintends the dumping and so arranges the business that the grain finds a bed first, then the mud over the grain, and the brick debris allowed to seltle as it may.

The authorities would not grant permission to have the dumping done at Elm Tee, Princes Bay, on ao oount of the bricks, which, lying at that place, would have endangered the well being of any vessel which might happen to ground upon them. Hence the dumping at the breakwater, where the matter is never In les than from four to five feet of water at any tide. A oanol boat loaded with the grain from Amity street has been lying near this dumping ground for several months, and, so far as stenoh is concerned, is represented as being moro intolerable than the worst that ever developed at the foot of Amity street. It lies about four hundred feet inside the breakwater, and is to remain there in its present corrupt condition, poisoning the air for miles around it, constituting a nuisance which should be promptly abated, nntil tho health authorities make up their minds that Mr. Barber can dump the contents, and save his boat from ultimate ruin.
