Three years ago Johnny was sent by tha Commissioners of Charities and Correction to St, John's Homo, but be proved to be such a bard cos that tho authorities of that institution wero soon obliged to dismlls him. Ho was then placed In chargo of the Gorman Cathollo Orphan Asylum in the Eastern District, where ho shortly distinguished himself by suing out a warrant against tho Sistors of that institution on the ground of ill treatment. Justice Naehor, who Issued tho warrant, examined the matter and found tho boy's siatemonta wero unsupported by facts. The next episode in which ho appears as the hero occurred yesterday, when tho superintendent of tho lost named institution called upon Clerk Short, of tho Charities Departnent, and informed the latter gentlemau that Johnny was bad beyond reformation, being continually Involved In mischief, and even having endeavored two or threo times, it Is said, to reduce the building to ashes. It being decided as useless to attempt to reclaim the boy in any of the local Institutions, ho was arraigned this morning before JuBtlce Walsh aud sen.

tenced to tho House of Refuge. A MILLIONAIRE. An Aotion for the Construction of His Will. The Arraignment of the Coney Island Gamblers. An notion brought for the construction of the will of James Brady by William H.

Hazzard, William Bradley, John B. Do Cuo and John J. Shcdwell, executors, came on for trial this morning, at Special Tsrm of tho Supremo Court. Mr. Brady died April 8, 1883, leaving about $1,000,000.

By'his will he gave $10,000 to his nleco, Rachel S. Webster, In lieu of oil claim for services. Sho died before tho testator, and ono question submitted was whether tho legacy had lapsed. If the money was a gift, it was held that it lapsed at tho death of tho testator, If for the payment of a debt it did not lopso. Goneral Pryor said the rule was that a legacy was not to be construed as a satisfaction of a debt unless tho legacy was payable at tho time when tho debt was demannable.

Thero was no proof that tho legatee or her representatives did not make a claim. Mr. Marean asked In the event of the failure of ls3U0 of the two daughters of the testator, who would bo entitled to tho surplus income. Mr. Blackwell for tho publio administrator, argued in favor of tho oontliuilug of the legacy.

Counsel for tha plaintiffs thought tho legacy would go to Miss Webster's representatives if any debt was proved. Tho court took the papers. Where Nearly all Plead not Guilty. At ten o'clock this morning Mr. Anthony Comstock entered tho Court of Sessions with a large package of logal paporB under his arm.

A prominent party who is not a delegate, bnt who Is reported to know tho sentiment In tho delgatlon, Bald that Ohapln'e duty was to remain in Brooklyn and run in tho Third Senatorial District, Your correspondent spoko to a number of tho delegates on the snbjeot and they said that thoy were for Chapin. One of them said he would havo the thirty six votes of Kings County should ho be a candidate before tho convention. Another sold that whatever opposition thera might bo would amount to nothing, as tho delegation would vote as a unit. Thora was no doubt tho delegation was for Chapin.

Mark and J. H. Msllon, with Controller Brlnkerhoff, havo been selected as the delegates for tho Third Assembly District. The latest arrivals from Brooklyn includo Keeper James Dunno, of tho City Hall, Martin Doyle, ex Assemblyman Shanloy and ex Assemblyman Coff oy. Tho slato reported this afternoon from tho Manning headquarters Is as follows Maynard, for Becrotary of Btate Chapin, for Controller; Maxwell, for Treasurer; DonisJ.

O'Brion, for Attornoy Goneral, and E. Von Buren, of Albany, for Enginoer. There havo been conferences by the Tammany poople, and John Kelly says ho has hopes that the Yew York troubles would bo Bet tied before tho convention met by an equitable dlvl slon of representation between the throe organizations. The County Democracy will agree to havo all factions roprosonted on tho basis of last year. If the oonvontion will make tho concession that tho Chapin Primary law should bo put into operation in Kow York; also that all tho organizations Bhall meet In some neutral place under conditions that shall ba pronounced by impartial men to bo absolutely fair and under 'the ausplco3 of no hall, then all parties will abide by the result, and tho organizotlon that shall havo most votes shall control all conventions.

Tho excitement over candidates has apparently for tho timo thrown tho New York troubles into the shade. Thero la an almost unanimous feoling that thero will bo settlement of tho disputes by giving each faction rop rosontatlou in tho convention. Tho talk among tho Manning men in tho State Committee room Indicates that the representation will be on the basis of last year Thirty eight for the County Democracy, twenty four for Tammany and ten for Irving Hall.

W. W. ARRAIGNED. The Receivers of the Bruff Road Called Upon to Account for $800,000. The Former Engineer of tho Road Gives Some Damaginfr Figures Regarding its Construction Liberal Advances by the Stock and Bond Holders, but No Money Expended on the Road The Only Salvation of the Road tho Immediate Dismissal of tho Receivers.

An Eagle reporter called this morning upon Mr. A. H. Shrove, late tho civil onglneer tit tho Bruff road, and now ono of Its most persistent creditors. It will be remombBi ed that Mr.

Shrove lately brought suit against the receivers of tho Brooklyn Elevated Itailroad for the sum of $1,800, alleged to bo due bbn for profes sional services. As stated in tho Exai.E of Septemuer 13, an execution granted against tho property of the Brooklyn Elevated road was set aside, a Sheriff's jury deciding that the title In tho pro pcrty belonged to tho company and not to tho receivers, against whom Mr. 8hrevo brought his Buit. Slnco this doclslon of tho Sheriff's jury Mr. Shrove Btated he has been In constant communication with hlslawyers, Messrs.

Gilliup Henry, of New York, Mr. Shrevo was found in his rooniB at tho Winchester flats, 1,244 Broadway, and waB perfectly willing to givo a full statement ot hia connection with tho Bruff road. "Perhaps I can givo you some Interesting figures regarding the monagemeut of the road," said Mr. Bhrcve. "Tho agreement by which tho receivers wero substituted In placo oC tho former managers of tho road was mado on tho 23rd of July, 1881.

At that tlmo tho road had a contract with tho Passaic Rolling Mill Company by which the company agreed to furnish the road 5,000,000 Jpouuda of iron. When tho rccoivers took hold this contract was about completed was still another contract with the Now York Steel and Irou Company, mado in Fohruary, 1830, by which this latter com pany agreed to furnish tho road with pounds of steel and iron. Thero aro still 40,000 pounds of steel and iron to bo furnished the road by this latter company, and I know through personal investigation that the receivers can fake up this Iron and steel at any tlmo. There is no reason why it Bhonld not bo used, and at once, as thero Ib plenty of capital ready for use in the construction of the road the moment the receivers show an inclination to go ahead. ME.

PUTNAM, THE CAPITALIST. I had a talk with Mr. Putnam yesterday on tho af fairs of the Bruff or, as I should put it, tho Brnff Schafer road. Tho rood made a now contract with Mr. Putnam lost May, and ho Btated to me yes terday ho had tho cash ready ot that tlmo and waa ready to go ahead.

Ho soon satiaiied hlm solf, however, that nothing could or would bo dono by tho company, and he accordingly recommend ed tho foreclosure of tho mortgage and the foreclosure of the road. Mr. Putnam gave mo facts which demon straled that ho might have had one entire section of tho road completed aud in working order by this timo if ho had been encouraged by the receivers to go ahead. Ha is now very skeptical regarding the ultimato building of the road, aud is in serious doubt whether or not ixa will take hold of tho enterprise, owing to tho short timo which tho charter of tho Brooklyn Elevated road now has to run." 16 THESE ANY HEMEDY "Siwaklng from your experience in Bruff road affairs, what do you consider the present prospect of tho road being completed." 'From my knowledge of the manner in which the re ceivers have thus far handled tho road, I should say the first thing to bo dono is to bring the receivers to an ac counting for tho entire $800,000 advanced to them by the bondholders, stockholders and creditors or tlio road, and thBn diBmlBB thorn for inooinnotoncy. Ac cording to the report of tho receivers7 themselves, only $324,000 of tho money advanced has been legitimately expended.

I havo been Interested in tho building or elevated roads as a civil engineer, over sinco the origin al Ninth avonue road in Now York was started, and speaking from my professional knowledge of tho con. struction of such roads, I feel Bofo in saying tho re ceivers are already in receipt of moro than enough funds to placo tho Brooklyn Elevated road on a working basis. From my knowledge of tho inner workings of tho managora of tho road, I am convinced that Mr. Schafor Is the prime mover m.tho many delays brought about. You will remember that in February, 1883, a second committeo was formed, Mr.

Schafor and Mr. Hardonburgh being members of it. This commit too was'givon absoluto control of the stocks and bonds of tho road, with tho object of consummating negotia tions with a Mr. Wilson rogarding tho finishing of tho road. Nothing waa done, and tho committee mado a now contract with Mr.

H. W. Putnam. Mr. Schafor has, sinoo that time, so I am informed by Mr.

Putnam, placed all sorts of obstacles iu tho way of tho latter's going on with the finishing of tho road, aud I hold Scharor, ond not Lydeckor, responsible for our being kept out of our money. INTERESTS AGAINST THEM. I wish to say a word about Mr. Cohen's statement that 'Thero are rapid transit interests fighting against tho Bruff I do not know of any such interests, but hope it Ib true, for that in my opinion is tho only way in which Brooklyn can ever hopo to have a system of quick transit through her thoroughfares. As to tho Bruff fraudulent stock oxcuso givon by tho receivers I wish to stato that Mr.

Bruff accomplished far moro toward the completion of the road in ono year than tho receivers havo dono iu tho entiro three years during which they havo been appointed." THE C0XEY ISLAND GAMBLERS. What Mr. Comstock and luo District Attorney Have to Say. Mr. Comstoch visited the District Attorney's office this morning and had a long interview with Mr.

Backus. When ho was disengaged an Eagle reporter asked him If bis conversation referred to tho Coney Island gamblers. sir, and to their prosecution," ho replied. "Have all tho men been arrested who were indicted7" "No, not all, but they will be." "How do you account to tho public for tho fact that your raid was made at tho end ot the season Instead of when tho gambling fraternity was iu full blast 7" "Thera has boon no raid," was the reply. "That is Bimply a mistake.

All that I went to do at Coney Island on Monday was to serve warrants. That was alt" "Then why the need of such an ostentatious ahow of Shoriffs deputies 1" "Becauso ve might havo met Borne peoplo who would have been ugly in their treatment of us, and we wanted i to go prepared. As It was, was a wot day and no business was dono." "How many indictments woro thero asked the reporter of Mr. Backus. "Twenty one." "And how many peoplo havo given bonds so Tar, to appear for trial." "Fourtcon." "And when will thoy be brought to trial "As soon ao our jail cases arc disposed of next month they will come up for trial." "There Is an impression that those proceeding against them are all a farce." "No, sir, it is not.

They wUl bo prosecuted just the eanio as tho worst criminal on tho calendar." "Do yon think yon will get any conviotiona 1" "That remains with tho jury Tho general Impression Is that Comstock is'not earnest In hiB prosecution of tho mon ogainst whom he complains.

GOVERNOR nUTLEIVS METHOD. They Do Not Meet With the Approval of ex Governor Talbot.

Boston, September 26. Ex Governor Talbot, chairman of tho Stats Board of Health and Charity, under dato of the 21st writes to Governor Butler stating that the latter'a demand for certain cash books and tho ledger relating to the accounts of tho Superintendent of Outdoor Poor had been referred to him, and that ho (Mr. Talbot) declined to deliver them becauso tho Governor had no authority to demand them. Mr. Talbot also requests tho return of ten books of record of the Board, which Governor Butler got possession of some time ago and has since had several persons examining.

Mr. Talbot protests against such ex parte investigation. The Superintendent of Outdoor Poor, ho says, should have an opportunity lor explanation of his accounts, and tho Hoard is disposed to encourage any investigation necessary. In fact, tho Governor never replied to tho request made of him by tho Board last Juno that he should present speciflo clmrgcB of misconduct on the pari of any ofllcors of tho Board. Tho Board is tho proper body to investigate all charges, and any other method of procedure is unwarranted by law, iu violation of the proprieties of offlclnl life, and unjust to oflicorB whose conduct, may bo called In question.

'The ceremony was witnessed by a Bcleet party, who, after It was over, wero rogaled in princely style. Tho presents wero numerous and costly among them being a handsome sot of furniture, the gift of tho bride's parent's, valued at $000.

The young couplo having received tho congratulation of their relatives and friends woro wafted away in a closed coach. It was understood that they went on a short tour which Included tlio Catskilln and other delightful situations overlooking tho Hudson. After tho lapse of a week they wore back onco more and took up their residence on a flat on Broadway, noar Siminor avenue, where they seemed to llvo very happily together until about a fortnight ago when some cause unexplained, seems to havo produced disagreement between them. The bridegroom, it ia alleged, absented himself from homo for several days. On Monday, 16th while he was still absent, Mrs.

Hirsch ordered a trunk, and having had all her furniture and valuables packed in it betook herself with it to the horns of hor parents. Since then Mr. aud Mrs. Hirsch havo not exchanged a word. Tho good esteem in which both of tho young people were held, makes this sudden separation a matter of general regret.

PISTOL SHOTS 0 THROOP AVENUE. A linker Fired on Early Thin Morning. About 2:30 o'clock tbis morniug residents on Throop avenue, between Walton and Wallabout streets, who happened to be awake, heard two men conversing in a highly oxcited mannor in front of No. 64 Throop avenue. Tho word "sword" in German was fre quently mentioned.

Both mon seemed much exasperated. One of them at last went down into the bakery at No. 64 and the. other followed him, speaking In violent tones. Tho man who retreated was Franz Siefert, the proprietor of No.

64 Throop avenue. The other was Johu Hausing, of No. 177 Harrison avenue. A row sec onds elapsed. Then two pistol shots, fired in quick succession, roused tho neighborhood.

Roundsman O'Reilly, of the Thirteenth Precinct, was on the spot with prouiptitudo, only in time, however, to see Han. sing flee to Walton street, round tho oorner, and disap pear in tho direction of Marcy avenue. The roundsman howovor, came in sight oi mm again as ue entered ho, in Marcy avenue. Into the house he too wont, and in a back bedroom found the fugitive, who donied all knowledge of what had occurred. Hanslng was taken to tho Thirteenth Precinct Station House.

Two citizens who saw Hausing fire tho pistol are ready to testify to tho fact. Slefort and Hanslng, It appears, belong to a German benevolent society. Hausing, it is alleged, recently bought a sword from Siefert, and there being some misunderstanding as to the manner in which it was to bo paid for, they quarreled, with tho result above detailed. THE COMPANY HELD RESPONSIBLE. Verdict of tho Jury iu the Case oi tho Victims of the Collision on tho Loner Itland Railroad.

The inquest on the bodies of the three men wnvA Miit tn iha nllinlnn on the Ijonf? Island Ilailroad at Hunter's Point was concluded last evoning by the Coroner of Long Island City. The District Attorney of tho county was present as usual. The jury rendered a verdict which placed the responsibility ok the disaster directly on the company because of tha un. equal height of tho car platforms, becauso trainB wero run in and out of the yard on the same track and be causo thoro was not a sufficient number of men em. ployed on the Manhattan Beach train to manage it properly.

Th. conductor and brakemen were accused of iiflnlleciico and tho engineer was exonerated. rWts havo been commenced against tho company by Leslie W. Blosson and others for sums aggregating 400,000. THE HEI1KEW SEW TiEAB.

His Testimony This Morning Before the Senate Committeo on Labor and Ednca. tion. Mr.

Joseph MecliU, the publisher of the Chicago Tribune, was a witness this morning before tho United States Senatorial Committee on Education and Labor. Mr. MecUU said ho had been connected with tha press slnco 1818, and that being In thiB olty ho had some views which ho wished to lay before the committee on tho subjoot undor Its consideration. The chief cause of the Impoounlous condition of the muses of the laborers in this oountry was due, ho said, to their own im. providence.

Tho only way to Improve tho condition of theso classes was to teach them to save. The power of wasting was at present much greater than tho powor of earning. Too much of tho earnings of the laborer was spont in liquor or tobacco. Mr. MediU hod novor hoard of any workman who spent his earnings In this way who ever mado any progress, it has been calculated that the amount annually spent by tho laboring population In drink was $100,000,000, and at least $200,000,000 moro was spent In liquor and tobacco and in useless amusement.

This sum would havo provided overy laborer in the country with a home, and the interest on this snm would pay all tho rents annually of the wage workers. High license and high rents would do muoh toward lessening tho evil. Mr. Mcdlll said that he bad very little faith in political prohibition. Another thing which demanded attontiou was tho homes of tho poor.

In all large cities thero were unhealthy tonemont houses, and these should be torn down as publio nuisances. The proportion of deaths to births in this city was four to threo, whllo in London the ratio was two to threo. This stato of affairs was due not only to tho avarice of landlords but to the political demagogues who controlled the municipal government and permitted such thing to oxist. It was one of thB objeots of trades lunlon to secure a reduction In the working hours. Tho reason given for this was, thoy eoid, that there would be created a great demand for labor, and this would force up wages to a high point.

Mr. MediU thought that this was au utterly fallacious idea. In the first place, It would greatly stimulate an immigration of labor to this country, which would novo the effeot of counteracting this raise. Besides, the Increased cost of production would greatly onhanoe prices, and tho merchants would not buy high priced domestic goods, but would go to Europe. If an Increase of tho tariff was tried as a remedy for this, the great agricultural class would resist.

The proiont tariff was fleecing tho farmers, and they wero beginning to understand it. Co operation, Mr. Medill thought, could not bo successfully carried out under tho present conditions. It could only bo possible when tho co operators wore better educated, as co operation required a higher degreo of intelligence This was the couse of numerous failures. Tho educational system of this country, in Mr.

Mo dill's opinion, and by crowdlug tho ranks of tho middle classes was a sourco of weakness to the body politic. What this country, needed was more mechanics. If artisans were wanted now thoy had to bo imported just as any other commodity. Industrial schools should bo established In every largo city, where cducotion in the technical arts could be obtained. Another subject which demanded serious consideration was the railroad question.

means should bo obtained for securing uniformity of rates. Under tho prosont uucortaluty of rates, tho grain market in the West was kont in a continual ferment, and was the means of ruining many morchnnts. This applied to other commodities as well as to grain. Air. nieaiu thought that tho railroads should not be permitted to exorciso tho power of arbitrarily ohanging the value of all the products of tho oountry.

Both Stato and Federal legislation should be employed to remedy this evil. This, ho said, was the only country in tho world which permit tod rnllroad3 to exerclBO the arbitrary power of charging what tho trafBo would bear. Evory railroad was to a certain extent a monopoly, as It possessed tho oxelusivo ubo of a certain highway. Mr. Medill claims that It would bo for the bonent of railroad property In tho United States If somo such government supervision as ho suggested could bo established.

The cspllalizalion of many railroads was far in excess of the cost of construction of tho roads, and thoy were annually fleecing the people of the country out of millions of dollars in prodls. The railroads weat of tho Mississippi River, which possessed tho largest publio grants, charged two and three times as much as those in tho East. The cost of operating the Union Pacific road.ln addition to this, was greatly decreased, SB their grant Included large cool mines whioh it did not cost one eent bushel to mine. A RUNAWAY ACCIDENT. A tenm of horses attached to a truck belonging to Martin Schaefer, of Hall afreet and DeKatb "avenue, took fright from the stoam cars on Atlnntio avenno yesterday, and running away collided with tho wagon of Dr.

Norton, of No. 405 Stato street, damaging It to the extent of $100. Thero was no ono in tho wagon at tho timo of the accident. SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENTS. 1CROFULA, SCROFULA.

Eopresentatives of overy faction of tho party woro on hand.

Thore were stalwarts, holf broods, featherheads, Cornell Republicans, Arthur Republicans, Conkllng Republicans and ox Garfield BopubUcans all hobnobbing together and discussing tho outlook with great Bplrlt Among thoso In tho throng apart from tho committeo, were tbe candidates on the State tickot, including General Joseph B.

THE CONTEST FOE CHAIRMAN. Before tho meeting of tho oommlttee a vigorous contest was wsged for tho ohalrmanBhip. Tho leading candidates were James D. Warren, of Erlo, editor of tha Buffalo Commercial Advertiser; Genoral George H. Sharpe, of Ulster; Chester S.

Cole, of Corning, Captain of tho Port, and oAssomblyman W. J. Heacock, Glovorsviile. Captain Colo's nomo was originally on tho slato, but a hitoh occurred over a suggestion that under tho civil sorvico law a Stato officer Is prohibited from receiving or disbursing money for political purposes. General Sharpo appealed for support on tho ground of his services to tho stalwarts, Mr.

Warren stood In a similar relation, while tha Heacock movement was helped along by assurances that ho was a solid man and would "put up" freely. "What wo want," ob3orvod Port Warden Leay craft, "Is a man who can raise monoy," and all tho party men about coincided, As the commutes was about golug into session the name of Sir. W. Cooper was sprung upon tho delegates by the Now York city Stalwarts. Mr.

Cooper is a wealthy retired merchant, and ono of the most Intimate personal friends of President Arthur. Ho was not a member of tho committee, but it was suggested that a vsoanoy be mado so that no could bo elected ohairman. Ho would a good man to work Wall Btreet, was tho compliment paid him by an enthusiastic admirer. THE CONTESTED BROOKLYN DISTRICT. Tho suggestion was first mado that Mr.

Cooper be elected to fill tho vacancy In tho Third Congressional District of Kings County. Tho delegates from this district, representing the Ninth and Eleventh Assombly districts, woro unablo to agree at the caucus held In the Plcrropont House last evoning, and after a long discus sion tbey adjournod for ono week. A difference of opinion existed as to tho powor of tho State Committeo fill the "vacancy in tho event of tho district dole, gates failing to agree. Ex AIdorman David S. Stewart, who has received tho sevon votes of tho Eleventh Assembly District from tho start, declined to withdraw.

At noon to day John Lydecker, President Arthur's factotum, approached Post Warden Lcaycraft, tho opposing candidato to Stewart, with a proposition that tho rival aspirants In tho district retire to mako room for Mr. Cooper's appointmont. Mr. Lydeck it Is said, mado the suggestion with the ap proval of the President. Mr.

Leayoraft expressed his assent to tho proposition, Baying that ho was willing to do anything for harmony. When the proposition was mado to Mr. Stewart, however, ho stoutly declined to yiold. Ho expressed tho opinion that the Brooklyn dis tricts Bhould bo ropresontod by Brooklyn mon, and Bald that ho would not get out of tho raco for tho President or anyone else bo long aa his constituents wished him to Btand. If, ho added, tho Eloventh Assembly District delegates were willing, ho would cheerfully mako room for Mr.

Cooper. When it waa found that Cooper oould uot get In as a member from Brooklyn it was suggested that ho be appointed from ono of tho how York City districts. The Committeo wont Into Besslon shortly after noon witu Hon. Andrew H. Draper, of Albany, who defeated John F.

Smytho, in tho chair aud Edwin M. Johnson acting 03 secretary. A STALWART SCOOP. It was apparent Boon after the session began that tho fight for chairman waa between tlio extreme active Stalwarts and a combination of Cornell Stalwarts and Half Broods. Tho administration men centered upon James D.

Warrou and tho opposition upon Chester S. Cole. Tho Stalwart. wero victorious, Mr. Warren receiving 17 votes to 14 for Captain Colo.

Of the Brooklyn mon Hobbs and Nicol voted for Colo ond Tate for Warren. General Sharpo at the last moment withdraw from tho canvass for chairman and presented tho name of Mr. Warren, whom ho eulogized in a vigorous speech. No one presented Captain Cole's nomo and tho strength ho doYoIoped occasioned considerable sur priso. Noither Mr.

Warren nor Captain Cole voted, both being absent' from tho room during tho balloting. Mossrs. Sharpe and Stewart wero appointed a committee to notify Mr. Warren of his nomination. Tho chairman elect was escorted into tho room and mode a brief speech of acceptance: The committeo then proceeded to ballot for secretaries.

The vote resulted in the election of John W. Vrooman, of Herkimer, and Edwin M. Johnson, of Otsego. William H. Barker, of Brooklyn, was elected assistant secretary.

MAJOR HOBBS CHOSEN TREASURER. Upon tho ballot for treasurer. Major Edward H. Hobbs, membef of tho committee from tho Second District of Kings, was elected without opposition. The name of ex Senator A.

M. Holmes, of Madison, tho successor of Thomas C. Plait, was proposed in connection with the treasurershlp but Mr. Holmes promptly declined. TUo election of Chairman of tho Executive Committeo was noxt in order.

Tho Stalwarts, having captured tho chairmanship, turned on a conciliatory light and urged Captain Colo to accept the position. Tho eaptaln was uncertain aa to tlio proper course for him to pursue. He went out into tho corridor aud consulted with tho candidates on the Stato ticket, all of whom urged him to accopt. Still, Captain Colo was not satisfied, and with Controller Davenport hurried down Fifth avenue. It was said that he hod gone to consult with ox Governor Cornell and tho probabilities were that ho would accept.

THE FIRE ON THE LIGHTER HITCHCOCK. Somo ot tbe Cargo Saved The Loss Not Yet Estimated. A little after 3 o'clock yesterday the lighter O. M. Hitchcock, with 800 bales of cotton on board, took fire whllo alongside of the steamer Herschol, pro paring to unload, Tho vessels were at Martin's stores.

A useless effort was made to pnt out tha flames, and in a few minutes it was seen that tho presence of the lighter would endanger tho other shipping. Her linos were cast loose and 'sho was allowed to drift with tho stream, Sho went nearly as far as Governor's Island when Captain Splcor took chargo of her for Mallory Co. She was towed back to a point opposite ner North Elver, and her hold filled with water by the dra boat Havemeyer. siie was then towed near enough to tho dock that the bales of ootton untouched by the flre could be thrown" ashore. In tho effort to save part of the cargo, some 'longshoremon fell into tho water, but were rescued.

Two were very Blightiy hurt. The loaa has not vet been estimated. The lighter William Baker, with fifteen hundred bales of cotton, also from Rio Grande, caught fire at tho Cunard dock, foot ot Cloraagn street. Tho flames were soon exunguisnso. A BIG FAIL.

Special to the Eagle, BrjprALO, September 26. The city Is astir with the convention gathering. This morning finds more than half of tho dologates hers, while the crowd of outsiders has grown to immonsa proportions. The hotel accommodations are very limited and much Inconvouienco and misery is tho result. Thore is a great deal of growling, but tlio weather fl.no and tho walking Is good.

Many a man, gripsack In hand, was traveling the streets far inifi tha night looking for a placo in which to sleep. Tho Kings County men who arrived last night havo inferior quarters at tho Gcnesco Hotel and some of tho late arrivals have none at all. Among thoso who aro not delegates In attendance upon the convention aro James Shovlin, ex Hcglster Carroll, Judge Mooro, Controller Brinkcrhoff, Congressman Felix Campbell, Anthony Borrott, ex County Clerk Elliott, Jerry Wornberg, Assemblyman Sheridan, E. A. Kollmeyor, Jaraos W.

Eidgway, P. J. Kolly, County Treasurer Henry Adams, Justice Courtney, AJderman McCarty, A. J. Michaels, Mark D.

Wilbur and Peter Suttor, Police Commissioner of New Lots. Tho absence of Messrs. Klnsollu and McLaughlin ex citoa attention. Speaker Chapin and Senator Jacobs arrived this morning, Mr. Chapin announced that ho was a candidate for tho nomination for Controller and said that tho situation looked well for him.

Ho was at first a candidate for tho nomination for Sooretary of 8tato, but rotlrod from that contest becauBe tho Indications woro that Mciynard, of Delaware, had tho inside track, Maynard being backed by tho Manning influ fluonce, Mr. Chapin had sent letters to party men of prominence in different parts of tho Btate asking them for their support for tho first place, but bis friends havo since made it known that he is going for second place, so that they boliovo nothing will bo lost by tho change. Tho Kings Couuty men aro for Chapin. They say it Is about tlmo that Kings County had a representative on tho Stato ticket. Tho last time tho Domocracy of tho county bad a State candidate was when Mr.

Anderson was elected one of tho Prison Inspectors uudor tho old order of things, and ho held office only for a short tiino. Mr. chapin has also been suggested for temporary chairman of tho oonvontion. During an informal iutorvlow held last night boweon Chairman Manning, of the Stato Committee, and leading members of tho Kings County delegation, tho former suggested his name and tho suggestion was, of course, well re received. The local Delegation.

The story Is that Manning wishes to show a friendliness to Chapin, in view of talk that ho forced tho latter out of tho raco for Socrotary of Stato. Tho Kings County mon cniue hero full of harmony. Thoy want a united party, and theroforo favor giving representation to all the organizations in New York County, but on just what baBis thoy do not know. They say they will hold a caucus tins evening, when soraosortof a programme of action will probably bo laid out. It Ib expected that the delegation will vote a unit, as usual.

Tho situation in regard to Kings County's representor tion on the now Stato Committee has not yet fully shaped itself, but tho goBnip among tho delegates seems to iudicato that Senators Jacobs and Kiornan will be retained for tho Second and Fourth Congressional Districts, respectively. Ill tho event of the retirement of Senator Jacobs, County Treasurer Adams has been talked of. Augustus Van Wyek, chatrmau of tho General Committeo, Is said to bo on tho iusido track for tho Third District, although Mr. Kidgwoy has had inspirations in that di rection, and John A. Quintard and James D.

Eutan, the builder of the Twenty third Ward, havo been talked of. It was announced this morning at tho Genesee Hotel that Kidgway was out of tho race and that Van Wyck would bo elected. He is a representative Democrat ond tho boys" feel that ho ought to bo on the State Com mittee. Thore promises to bo a spirited contest for the place in tho Fifth Distiict between Assomblyman McCarren and Assemblyman Georgo H. Lindsay, and the general opinion appears to bo that McCarren will win.

Mr. Lindsay, who Is a delegate to tho convention, has the advantage of being on tho ground while his opponent ia at home, not having sufficiently recovered from his recent sovcro illness. Tho Anti Monopolists aro represented by F. B. Thurber, of Now York, and John F.

Henry and N. B. Killiner, of Brooklyn. They aro working against tho nomination of Poucher, Homer A. Nelson, Mackin, C.

8. Cary and William H. Catlin. ronchor and Nelson are looking for the Attorney Generalship, Mackin and Cary aro candidates for Controller and Catlin is a candidate for Treasurer. Tho Anti UbnopoilBt representatives are circulating printed slipa containing the records of those mon in tho Legislature on anti monopoly meas ures.

They allege that they aro against the good cause, as their votes in tho Legislature show. Tho representatives of tho Anti Monopoly League aro making a hot fight against tho candidates for nominations to whom allusion has already boon made. Mr. Henry, who is president of tho National organization, said to your correspondent, "Wo aro hers to ask this Democratic couvention to toko no stop backward on tho Anti Monopoly question to give us a strong resolu tion, or strongor than they did at Syracuse a year ago, and then bo consistent by nominating candidates whoso character and past record will be a guarantee that tho Democracy arc sincere in there Anti Monopoly profes sions. The Democrats havo planted themselves strong ly on Anti Monopoly heretofore, aud they certainly ought to havo resolutions that aro stronger than thoso adopted by tho late Republican stato Convention.

"What is tho prospect hero 7" I asked. "Well, overybody so far as wo havo learned scorns to bo in favor of Anti Monopoly, but thoro is not tho same consistency about nominations. I think, however, that tho better minds of tho Convention will give us Btrong Anti Monopoly candidates. If they do, tho ticket will sweep tlio State. We orcv particularly opposed to tho nomination of Nelson, Mackin, Cary and Catlin, becauso of their record in tho Legislature.

Wo tliiuk it would bo no moro than fair that tho Convention should give tho Anti Monopoly sontiment, a representation on the ticket and I think Colonel F. A. Conkllng or some other member of our cause should havo a prom inent placo on the ticket. Wo favor a reasonable en largcmout of tho Erlo Canal by cloauing out ono foot moro and raising it one foot on tho Bides, leaving two feet moro of water. This will cost but little.

Wo would also havo enlarged tho locks bo that two boats could go through at tho same time." The Anti monopoly Sentiment. Mr. Thurber, who is chairman of tho Executive Committeo of tho Stato organization, said "The Demo oralio platform of last year was generally satisfactory, but when it camo to enacting measures to restrict tho growing power of monopolists which tho platform declared for, many prominent Demo crats woro found wanting. Theso very mon who aro among tho most prominoully mentioned for promotion woro against us." I think that thoro ought to bo found enough good Democrats who aro free from monopoly influences to fill the offices. Wo simply take tho position that mon who have betrayed the prin clples which thoy were supposed to represent ought not to bo promoted." "Have you any candidates to suggest 7" Mr.

Thurbor was asked. None," ho replied. We simply ask that men who are Independent aud free, from anti Monopoly affilia tions bo selected. That is about our position." What is the prospect of success 1" I cannot tell any hotter than you can. Wo hare made a list of some unworthy Democrats, giving tho records of Poucher, Nolson, Mackin, Cary ud Catlin, Wo say they have records which arc antagonistic to the professions and platforms of the party, and thoro are others who are loss prominently mentioned who are al most equally bad.

On tho other hand, there are somo good men mentioned, and we hope that the good ones will bo selected. Among the good men I may mention Speaker Chapin for Controller or Attorney General Purcoll for Secretary of State; F. A Conkllng for Controller Mr. Evershed and Mr. Hogai for Engineer John B.

Haskin for Attor ney General, and Mr. Laphara for Treasurer, Thero is a great deal of talk about tho tloket and slates of many kinds are being made. Mr. Manning says ho bellovcs the tickot will be a new ono, with possibly tho exception of Maxwell, for Treasurer, who was tho only succeseful candidate two years ago, and whoso friands claim that ho is entitled to a nomination. In regard to his connection with the Stato Committeo, Mr.

Manning said that ht was not seeking tho chairmanship again, but left It to be Inforred that he would get it. It was, he said, a place of care and responsibility, and as far as his personal Inclinations wero concerned, ho did not really want it. It Ib tho genoral impression that Maynard will ba nominated for Becrotary of State and Maxwell for Treasurer, showing that tho Albany machine Is in control. One slate made up by the goseips includes Maynard for Secretary, Nelson for Attorney General, end Maxwell for Treasurer, with Chapin for Controller, and tho Engineer in doubt. K.

K. Apgar, who Is very cloto to Manning, says that fully MO of tho 381 delegates will be heartily in favor of the Administration, and that Manning will bo re elected chairman of the State Committeo, receiving not less than twenty flvo votes. Speaker Chapin will in all probability be temporary chairman of the convention, with tho possibility of being retained as permanent chairman. The impression grows that Mr. Chapin will be nominated for Controller.

Ha nd bis frionds are making quiet but effect canvSs and report very encouraging results. Mr. Chaplu was found by your correspondent in the rooms oi tho Stato Committee iu conversation with Mr. Manning and other lead el's. Ho Bald thero wis nothing new in regard to his candidacy, bute seemed to have a feeling of satisfaction and oonfidonco which was significant, srr.

Apgar sold that If Kings County supported Mr. ho would get the nomination. Senator Kiornan and Charles a Hlggins, State Committeemen for tho old Second and Third Districts re spectively, have not arrived. They will not bo hero. Ex County Clerk Delmar will appear for Klernan, and Justice John Courtney for Hlggins.
