THE BUDGET. GOSSIP. SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 5, J878, THE TRACE. An Eastern nan Killed Point. at Hunter's Special to the Eagle, Jamaica, L.

October 4. Charles O. Moore, ot some town In Massachusetts, was killed on the Long Island Railroad here at noon. The Hunter's Point and Flatbtuh trains entered the depot together. Be stepped from the Hunter's Point train, and was struck by that front Flatbush.

The lower part of the face was torn away his body was shockingly mangled, and the bones of his arms and legs were broken. He was on a visit to Boadmaster Moore. Kaa. SAV3D. One man and Two Boy Vfbo Would Hare Been Drowned.

Yesterday evening two boys named J. G. Qilmore, aged years, and Joseph Shuter, aged 1 years, were playing at tag on the dock at the foot of Paclfio street with a number of other boys. It became necessary for both of the abort mentioned little fellows to get out of the way ot thB one who was trying to oatoh some of tha others, and in doing so both ran, but were looking behind as they did so. The result was that both of them fell over the dock and in another minute were struggling in the water.

The other boys on the pier were unable to assist them, and so they gave an alarm, whioh brought John Marr, of 38 Paoiflo stroet, to the rescue. He jumped overboard, waiting only to divest himself of his ooat, and managed to resouo both the boys, who were safely landed on the dook. Both were nearly exhausted, and were oonveyed by frlonds to their respeotive residences. Gilmore lived at 398)' Furmaa street, and Shuter at 33 same atreet. The parents of the boys expross their 1 thanks for the prompt assistance rendered by Mr.

Marr. Webster Billings, a tramp, homeless, but apparently not friendless, for he had bean treated by some of the men who work round the Atlantio Dock, and regaled with ale enough to set him drank fell fato the water, Hs was too drank to swimsnd would hare been drowned had it not basn for Offloer Malloy, who jumped In and rasouoJ him. Ho was looked up for being drunk. THE TRACK How the Accident Oocurred on the Bockaway Line. Were the Ties Kottea Testimony Pro and Con Before the Coroner's Jurj.

Coroner Nolan and a jury last evening, in the Seventh Precinct Station House, concluded the investigation Into the death of Michael Durkin, engineer of tho wrecked Rookaway train. At the two previous sessions of the Jury the testimony of passengers and employes on the ill fated train, as well as meohan loal experts, was taken. The passengers ail agreed in their evldenos that a number of the ties used at the place where the aooldent ooourred were rotten, while tha railroad employes to a man testified that though some of them were in ubo for a long time, yet as a whole they were euffiolently strong to hold any rati together nnder any ordinary pressure. Fortunately, the jury examined tho ties the day after the aooldent themselves. Thomas Meehsn, the railroad's master moohaDic.

de posed that he examined the road and the wrecked train shortly after the oasualty, and that he felt satisfied that tbe ACCIDENT WAS THE BESTTLT OF A FIBS OKACK IN of the wheel, whioh caused it to broak. In his onlnton tbe fire craok could not be dstected by sounding the wheel. It la the engineer's duty to sound the wheels of the looomotive before thoy leave the depot on every trip. unarms w. copeiana.

engineer, agreed with Meghan that the aocident was attributable to a fire caok in the flange, whioh could not have been well deteoted by the previous sounaing ot tue wneeu Mr. Jacob Healy, an extensive iron founder, depoBod that it was possible for a fire crack to exist in tho flange without discovery by the examiner. When tha broken wheel was handed to him he examined it care fully, aud said that be saw no evldenoe of tbe previous exlstenoe of a fire orack in it. In his opinion. IT WAS.

A FBA.OTUBB of soms kind which could be uroduoed bv running; around tbe curve at a rapid rate of speed. When SBksd to examine tbe wheel again he did so, and again deposed that be saw nothing to prove that there was any previous oraok in the wheol. The train dispatcher admitted that the train left about four minutes behind time, and other evidence was adduced to tbe effect that it was going at the rate of about thirty miles an hour wnon tne acciaeni oooarrea. Th testimony taken last night was unimportant. Tbe jury was possibly the most Intelligent one whlcb sat on a oase for years in Brooklyn.

It was oomposed as follows Thomas C. Smith, poroslain manufacturer Edward Williams, President Greenpolnt Savings Bank Alexander McCullom, ooal merohant Jos. W. Valentine, lumber Jobn H. Johnson, real estate: Thomas Foster and Geo.

Bullwlnkle. After a brief adijfess from the Coroner tho jury retired, and half an hour later returned with tbe following verdict THB VBBDIOT. That Miohael Durkin came to his death bv soalds and bruises, on September 13, 1878, at No. 19 Box street, and that the said scalds and bruises were caused by the Rookaway train of the Lonsr Island Railroad. whioh left Hunter's Point at 9:33 or 9:34 A.

M. on September 13, 1878, running down an embankment near Furman's Bridge. we hare thoroughly examined the line of the road BDd its oonditlon at th scene of the accident and in the vicinity, and have oarefully weighed the evldenoe brought before us as to tne broken flange, condition of the roadbed, rate of speed and other relative evi dence. In our opinion the accident was entirely owing to rounding ourvea at an unwarrantable rata of speed. The road from Hunter's Point to the plaoe where the oars went off the traok is laid almost entirely in ourvad lines.

The evldenoe olearly shows that the rate of speed from Hunter's Point to tha sosne of tha aooldent was nearly thirty mile per hour. The ourve where the engine went off the traok Is given by one witness aa being 400 feet; by another 500 feet radius. A radius unusually short exoept in the immediate vicinity of denote where trains are always run at slow speed. To force a train around curves so short at the rate of nearly thirty miles an hour we deem. AN UNWARRANTABLE KCP09TJM OF THE LIVES OF PASSENQHB8.

The bed at the DOlnt where the train went off and the vlolnlty have been muoh repaired alnoe the accident ooourred, but in our opinion thero are yet many ties that should be taken out and replaced by now ones before traveling oan be considered aafe at even ordinary rates of speed around those curves. We also direot attention to Furman's Bridge, which is a few roda oeyond th aoene of the aool dent. This etruoture has been repaired and patched beyond the point of safety, and should be immediately superseded ny a new structure. LOCAL BREVITIES. A sneak thief entered the residence of Frank M.

M. on Monday and yesterday afternoon the apartments of Miohael Ma bedy, at No.

She was brought back to tha Alms house. James A.

Tho smiil boys of the neighbor hood often teass him and steal fruit. Wodnosday he was running alter James Smith, of 108 Suydam streot, and fell on top of the boy, crushing him soverely.

On the way to to tha station house the prisoner resisted and assaulted the officer, who was obliged to use his Barry was taken to the Long Island College Hospital, where his wound was dressed. The candidates for the nomination for Controller ar increasing.

The latest is ex Aldarman David 8. Arnott, of tha Eighth Ward. Mr. Arnott is an upright and suooesstul business man. and course when in the Board of Aldermsu commanded general respect.

It Is believed, however, that In Is not popular enough among the "boys" to Becure the nomination. Mr. Arnott never did take muoh stook in the "boys," preferring to dlsoharge his duties from what oonsidsred to be the right stand point, rather than submit to the dictation of the "boys," or anybody else. The resurrection of Dan Hasbrook and his presentation as a candidate for the Republican nomination for Oity Auditor, is one of the interesting features of the local oampaign. Dan held offloe in New York City for nearly a quarter of a oentury, all that time residing in Brooklyn.

About two months since was removed from bis position Chief Clerk of tho New York Bureau of Elections and his plaoe was given to Johnny O'Brien, a young aud active Bspubll of that city. Dan retired to private life and was rapidly pasting into obscurity, when some ot his ardent personal friends trotted him out as can Jldste for Auditor. Although his ohanoas of success are rather sauzy. Republican workers here regard his aspirations rather cheeky, under the oiroumstano. s.

Dan is an affable gentleman, a good story teller and Jolly company, but Republicans say he can never bo Auditor. Giro the young fellows a atiow, thiy say.

Pomeroy as arbitrator, who decided in favor of plaintiff. Though ail parties bad stipulated to abide by Mr. Pomeroy' decision, the defendants moved to set aside the Judgments and for a new trial, on tbe ground of collusion between plaintiff and tha arbitrator. Ou the motion, however, the defendants' denied any intention of reflecting on Mr. Pomeroy.

Judge Gilbert has darned the motion. He says that Mr. Pomeroy'a finding was jnst and the report good on an award. If regarded as the decision ot a referee, errors In It cannot be corrected on motion. Action Against an Inanrancts Com pany.

This morning the suit of William B. Grace against the American Central Insurance Com pany, of St. Louis, was brought to trial in the TJ. S. Distrlot Court before Justice Benedict and a jury.

Tha facta in the case are somewhat psouliar. The plaintiff was a lumber dealer, having his place of business on Newtown Creek, and the defendants being a oorpora tlon existing nnder the lews of tbe State of Missouri, or wbat is known in legal phraseology as a "foreign' oorporatlon. The action was thsrafore brought to trial in tbs Federal Court. On or about September 26, 1877, John D. Carroll, an Insuranoe Agent, who was authorised to deliver properly exeouted policies, subject, however, to th willingness of the Company to oarry the risk oovered by them.

delivered a pohcy for $5,600 to F. H. Anthony on tue property oi tne plaintiff, jr. H. Anthony Oo.

wero Insuranoe agsnts, aoting on behalf of tha plaintiff, aud after delivering the polloy to them Carrol forwarded a report to the Central Insurance Company at St. Louis, ia whioh he stated all matters relating to tne risa ne nan taicen. On reoeipt of Carroll's report the Oompsny immediately notified him that thev re fused to carry the risk, aud that the polloy had been oanoaiiea. ua the afternoon of Friday, October 5, 1877, Carroll called unon F. H.

Anthony and notiatd them of the deoltlon of the Oompany. and re quested them to surrender the polloy, and thsy promised to do so on the next day. On the morning of Saturday, Ootober Carroll again saw F. H. Anthony A and they promised to forward the policy to him during the afternoon.

Late In the day, or about 5 o'clook in the afternoon, Carroll sect to the office of Anthony A for the policy, and some person in tha office stated tbat it would be returned on the morning ot Monday, Ootober 8. Before that tlms arrived, however, a fir had ocourred at tbe lumber yard of plaintiff, and the damag was said to amount to $5,157. That happened about 1 o'oiook on the morn ing of Sunday, Ootober 7, and plaintiff, through Messrs. Anthony gave defendants notios of the loss. Before the fire no premium had been paid, but on October 8, when plaintiff forwarded a proof of loss he at the earn time tendered payment of the premium.

Defendants declined to reoelve it on tbe ground that it bad not been earned became the polioy was not in force Tbe above are the facts In tbe can and the Jury will be asked to determine whether tha Company must held to be bound by the sot of its aocrodlted agent, Mr. John S. Carroll. The oase has exolted considerable interest in this city and New York, from the fsot that most of the Insuranoe business Is done through the medium of agents or brokers, and this nut is ei pscted to show how far tha oompanles are bound by tbe sets of their agents. Tbe oase Is still on.

Hon. Winchester Britton appeared for the plaintiff and Messrs. Parsons Sulllvaa for the defendants. Tbe filbbs Jnannlaciurlnr Company. The motion for a receiver for the Gibbs Manufacturing Oompany was this morning denied by Justice Pratt, with $10 oosts.

No Judgment lor Deficiency. Alexander Simpson got judgment in foreclosure sgainst tha heirs and executors of Dorothea Dixon, judgment of deficiency not being inserted in tbe deoree of Bale. Josish Lockwood, ss assignee of Simpson, sued the heirs, etc, for the amount ot the deficiency and to make it a oaarge on other real estate owned by Dorothea Dixon at time of death. Mr, Henry S. Basquiri, for ten infant defendants, raised the points that plaintiff could not sue without leave of the Court; that judgment of defiolency being asked for and not inserted in the decree the question was finally determined, and that the plaintiff's failure to insert judgment for deficiency was a waiver.

Justioe Pratt this morning granted judgment for the defendants. Ham and Divorce. Jane Morgan, who keeps a boarding house at No, 18 Washington streoi, sued Miohael Albert Morgan for limited divorce on the ground of cruel and inhuman treatment. They ware married in 1867 at St. Paul's Churob.

Plaintiff says tbat defendant is an habitual drunkard, and has beaten and kioked her and called her foul names. It is also alleged that defendant has pawned his own clotbes, plaintiff's olothes, tha bedclothes and even the wedding ring for liquor. No defease was put in, and this on report of the referee, judgment of separation was given, plaintiff to have tho custody of the two ohildren. Mr. W.

S. Fades appeared for plaintiff. Grollua v. Crollas), A decree of absolute divorce has been granted by Justice Pratt, in tbe Supreme Court, in favor of Mrs. Sarah J.

crisis had been retched, and the very existence of Bepubho Would be endangered unless a obange took place. He recommended that thsy should favor oandldate nominated oy tbe Convention, but oppose the platform so far as the financial plank was concerned. Ex Judge Barnard Walter L. Livingstone, Bnfus L.

MoKenna said the namcof Mr. Wolff Cohen had not been reported upon by tbe committee, for tbe reason, be understood, that he was supposed to be a Democrat. He wanted to say tbat though Mr. Cohen had been a Democrat, ha had expressed bis Intention of never voting a Democratic ticket again. Mr.

Phillips said tho nam of Mr. Arthur Poole had not boon reported on either. The Chair I know him to be a good Republican. Mr. Phillips Yos, and I move that bis name bo added to the list read by the Secretary.

Th Secretary And I move that it go to the committee in tbe usual way, Mr. Phillips Ypu have no business to Interrupt me while I HAVE THB PLOOB. I have also here a list which was handed to me. It contains nsmes wbloh I am asked to see If they are plaoed on roll. Whils Mr.

Phillips wae reading the list, he waa Interrupted. He turned upon the gentleman who had apoken, aud heatedly exolalmed tbat If he had no respect for tbe Chair he should at least hare it for himself. The Chair said that Mr. Phillips was out of order, and that what he was doing would properly come under tbe head of unfinished business. A report trom the Finance Commutes being oalled for, tha chairman of that body reported progress Mr Phillips moved that the minority report submitted at tbe last meeting and concerning the proposed enrollment of a number ot names be taken from the tatlo.

Mr. Joseph Reeve raised a point of order. Ho affirmed that no majority report was presented on that occasion, and that, therefore, there oould have been no minority report. The Chair You are right, Mr. Reove.

I erred in rooeivlng the minority report, and I rule your point of order to be well taken. Mr. Phillips I move that Arthur Poolo'a name be placed on roll. Mr. McKinriey And I amend! that Mr.

Wolff Cohen be added to that of Mr. Poole. Mr. Reeve was opposed to filing on the original motions amendments which would drag into the association men who had beon Democrats ail their eaA He eofed jjr. McKlnney would withdraw Mr.

Coben a name, because he waa too well known to require two minutea' dlsonsslon. Mr. McEloney thought the association was confounding Mr. Wolff. Cohen with Mr.

Jaoob Cohen. Voloe On, no, no; not muon. We know who you mean. Mr. MoKlnney Jaoob Is a notorious Dsmoorat but Wolff says he would a Republican.

I have no ax to grind in the matter. If you wont takeWolff Cohen'a I move that Jacob's name be added to that of Mr. Poole I'll hava A COHEN ON THB BOLL any how. No attention being paid to the motion the name of Mr. Poole was formally nrolled.

The plaolog of another name on the roll having oome up for dlsouselon it was urged that it had been awaiting aotlon for a long time. Mr. M. J. Dady I had to wait for four msetinga.

The Secretary I know who kept you out Mr. Dady So do Two of the meetings brok up in a row. Mr. Beava said he had a motion to make. It seemed to him that it would save exnenae and irnnhla tn the primary for tbe selection of candidates for Supervisor and cons.

abl take nl.M at tha nnuiln. plaoe as the primary for tne election of delegate to u.u.au. iwunfmwuB, no wouio, inereioie, mnve that th Inspectors of eleotlon be requested to provide uwuivuwiiw tue purpose, and tnat a proper advertisement bj placed, in the paper for two days informing the RspubUcans of the ward what it is prepared to do. The Obalr I think if it wore published to the Eaoli for one day it would do. There ar PLENTY OP BEPUBLICAN8 who read the Eaoli.

Mr. Reeve spoke further in support of his motion, deolaring that it waa time for tbe Republicans of the ward to unite, to make up their minds not to knife a candidate that they disliked. He hoped thoy would make up then minds to redeem the Fourth Ward Mr. Reeve's motion wsa adopted. Mr.

Dady moved tbe appointment of Messrs. 3 Bennett, Joseph Beers, M. J. Dady. James Given, Stryker, E.

Orr, Alfred Dorlon, J. W. Bull, C. Phillips, A. Bergen and b.

J. Hopkins as a committee to recommend a oandldate for Supervisor. He did so, ssid, in order thst a candidate who would be HT7ITABLB TO ALL oould be selected. The motion was adopted. Mr.

MoKlnney I move tbat It Is tha sense of Ihe Fourth Ward Republican Association that Mr. Joseph Reeve shall have the nomination for Commissioner of Chsritles at the beads of the ooming County Convention. Mr. Hopkins said hs most heartily seoonded tbe motion and several gentlemen apok in favor of it declaring tbat whatever bickering they might have had with Mr. Reeve, if waa nominated they would show how well they oould support htm.

Mr. Reeve I hardly know wbst to say in regard to the question now before you, but this I will say that it certainly gratifying to me to have gentlemen In this room with whom I have bad several tilt at primary elections, and at thes meetings, get up here and ih good faith nam me for a oounty nomination.

There were present aU of the Committee, Aid. Mur tha, Frenoh and Molntyre. Colonel E. B. Lansing ex Ohlet Clerk of the Police Department; Johri Francis, John F.

Mason, Arthur Quinn and others appeared to protest against the reduction of pay of poUoemBn. Aboat a dozen members of tht force were present as spectators. Aid. Murine ssid the Oommittoo had Intended to the appropriation for the Board of Eduoatlon, but he was informed that there were some oitizens present who desired to be heard relative to tbe statement of the Department of Poitoe Bud Eroiso. Tho Committee waa ready to hear tom Mo desired to explain before thoy began that tha amount allowed by the Board of Estimate would be insufficient, as it stood now, to pay the men the comnen.

satlon now received. MB. QUINN said he believed that now waa ths tlms for retronoh ment and rerorui. As a taxpayer and one who was doing nothing, he felt tha burdens aa much as anybody else; but he did not think ths reductions should commence with the polloa. The pclloemen and firemen did not rocelve a cent too much for their services.

That was only a small leak. They worked hard, and they carried their lives in their hands, and he was opposed to reduoing their pay. If the Committee wanted to out down expenaes, let them oommonoe at the big salaries. He pointed out the 18,000 Commissioner Flaherty, a man who was going about shouting retrenchment snd reform, i a a suitabls case in whinh tn oommenoe reduoing. tnal man' (errioss might be dispensed with, and four or fire policemen paid out of the money.

There was another man who drew $3,000 or a year, who bad left tha City Hall Park in a most disgrtoeful condition, and Injured surrounding property fifty thousand dollars. He wore a big sombrero and went about looting wiser than an owl he oould also bo dispensed with, and a saving of saversl thousand dollars could be affeoted. Mr Quinn said ths Committee knew whom he meant. He was sure great reductions oauld be made in many directions, but he protested agaluat ths outting down of ths polio pay. MB.

JOHN FBANOIS said he waa not in favor of reducing the pay, as he thought tbe polios earned all they reoeivsd. He waa periecuy aausnso, aa a taxpayer, to pay his share. Aid. Molntyre Do you rsnresent anv nrrranlff. Hon of taxpayers 7 air.

Mason also snoke brief! in onnnaitinn tha proposed reduotlo n. He spoke of the hard work done by the police, tbe money it oost them for clothes, and tae general disadvantages they labored under oom pared with mechanloa. He advooated tbe reduction of tha large salaries those of men who did little work. Aid. Molntrre Don't von know that nrtm mlttee has no power to reduce the salaries fixed by law? Mr.

Mason said he knew that, but ha thnnoht tha pay of the poor policemen should not be eut down. The saving would not be fiftv or twentv fl.e nr twi.a oents to esoh taxpayer, and at a taxpayer he was op Aid. Molntyre You and I don't disagree. Aid. Murtbs Your desire aa a iimiTar in lh mat ter of retrenchment is that it ought to be made ON AN EQUITABLE BASIS.

and the men who do the most work for toe city ought not to bo ths ones to suffer. Mr. Mason Tbst's it exactly. Aid. Murtha Or.

Murtha the Tsnrlcat nnmmitta Of Which this is onlv a auh cnmmitraa nra anvnnA entirely by the amount limited by the Board of Estimate. The Budget Committee cannot add ooo dollar to the amount established by the Board of Estimate, but the whole Committee oao, if they find it will not impair the effloioncy of any department, or any of the ourrent aDDroDrlations.

In answer to Aid. Fronoh, Mr. Mason sail that hs paid aa high wages now as he did before the present depression, though he bad dlschargsd a number of Aid. French Do you pay as muoh for mason and oarpenter work as you did four or five years ago i Mr. Mason I do not.

colonel Lansing's bem bks. Colonel Lansing I am here in behalf of tho work lugmen of the Police Department, and I propose to put in a word or two in opposition and 1 hardly ougbt to nsa the term opposition, because I hardly think I can be led to believe tbat many of our fellow citfssns, those who are property men, at least, axe desirous of any reduction in the salaries of the polios foroe but I desire to just suggest to you why I think tho salaries should romain as they are. In the first place I have serious doubts, under tbo charter of 1877, whether it Is in the power of your honorable Board to reduos the salaries of the policemen. You may reduoo the budget all you may have a mind to, but it is a question for you to consider whether after you have reduced your budget to such an extent that tho Police Department will be forood to say that thoy must reduce the salaries of their men, tbat the men would not have a reasonable cause of action against the oity for the remainder of their sala ries, as provided by statute, and therefore make you penny wise snd pound tooliih. But I propose to throw that entirely out of the question.

I want to Ming this down and my friend, Mr. Frenoh, will understand me thoroughly because he is a meohanlo and proud of that fact (Honest John bowed and looked pleased) I want to bring this right down to a square proportion of the value of labor. I am not thoroughly posted in regard to what your ordinarily useful meohanlo gets to day for bis servloea. I know all about the reduced oouditiou of affaire generally, the reduction of rents, salaries and the prloe of labor, wbloh 1 deeply regret but I believe that a fair and useful mechanic oan earn to day from $3 to $3.80, HONEST JOHN SHOOS HIS HEAD doubtfully. Colonel Lansing Well, sir, what oan he earn I Aid.

Frenoh $160. Colonel Lansing I will take you at that. How many hours Is a day's work 7 Aid, Frenoh Ten hours. That Is the regulation, exoept aa to stonecutters, who have eight hours, I believe. Colonel Lnnslng We will take it ten hours a day at $2.50.

Those hours are from six in the morning to six in the evening 7 Aid. Frenoh From seven in the morning to six in tho evening, with an hour at noon for dinner mating eleven hours. Colonel Lansing Now, sir, I claim for the policeman of tha City of Brooklyn over and above every I other member of any polloe force net only in this State but throughout the United States, tbat be ia a harder working man than any msobanio in ths country, and that his position demands protection not only at tbe bands of bis fellow citizens but at the hands of the representatives of bis cltlxens. Now let us see. We lovs to sleep.

Let us imitate Obarlos Beade's little novel and put ourselves now right in tbe polioo man's place. I ask my friend (Honest John) to put himself in the policeman's placa to put on tha blue ooat with the buttons, aud the club on your aide aud the oap on tho top oi your head, aud go out to duty. Your daily meohanlo labors ten hours a day, has an hour of rsst at noon, goee home at six o'olock and ha ths evening and night with hla family. The policeman Is not so situated. It may be well to say that the world is full of men who aro ready to spring into this duty of policemen, but that does not make the work leas.

Aid, Frtnoh called Colonel Lansing's attention to the faot that the budgt ojuld not be looresjed, but thst there might be transfers. Colonel Lansing There are accounts in this city that are EAOOBD WITH MONET, from which money should be taken and placed to the oredlt of the Polloe Departrnent. There is no burden taxation that the citizens of Brooklyn, whatever their oonditlon, wUl so willingly boar as aa additional burden to support a larger sad, if possible, a batter polloe foroe. The Colonel than dwelt dpon the arduous work of the police, and said that the average actual duty was from 18 to 14 hoars a day. There was one polloeman in each precinct to protect the lives and property of every 1,500 people, and trhl( the burdea was a great one, there was not a more efficient aud faithful force in the oountry than tbat which Brooklyn had.

The oost of ths clothing of the polloe having arisen, Aid. Murtba tald tbat a Winter outfit oost $65 Spring uniform $13 Summer, $26.80 citizen's clothing, $18 clothing at home, $18. Etch man had to keep one suit of oitiaen's clothing at the station house. Colonel Lansing said that he thought transfers oould made from the City Works' appropriation better than from any other department. Aid.

Hurtha asid that about VseaJy five par cent, of aggregate amount of the tax budget went to pay MiHSfffl JBtf 'Wffnt oi tne city debt, which left ZTZ IHS qtDartment. Alrl MnTntwa anroaatarf fTMflWAtV 6f transfSF rlng $50,000 from the Department of Oily Works $50,000 from salaries of city ofnoers, and $26,000 from Department of Parks, and apply the amount to maintaining the present rates of policemen's and firemen' pay. Colonel Lansing ssid there wss one offioial drawing old salary. $6,000 (Flaherty), and he ought to ashamed of himself for doing it, Mr. Charles O'NoiII, of the Sixth Ward, who pays 000 of taxea annually, also briefly opposed the proposed reduction or policemen's pay, This brought th discussion to a close, and the Committee adjourned.

BRIOHTON'8 LAST 8UPPKB. The directors of the Brooklyn, Coney Island Railway held a meeting in the drawing room of the Baighton Hotel, last evening, for the ptrpos of reviewing tha workings of their enterprise far, and of devising other and further improvements and attractions for next season. Owing to illness the President, Mr. James N. Smith, was not present, aod in his absence General Jourdan presided.

little was determined upra, as the propositions contractors and speculators were so numerous novel tbat it was deemod proper to thoroughly investigate a majority of them. At tbe termination of the railroad directors' meeting, the proprietors of tbe hoteL Messrs. Breslin Sweet, entertained them and about twenty invited guests at a magnificent banquet, specially prepared for tbe occasion. Every dellcsoy the market afford was ssrved up and wss washed down by most sparkling of France's vineyards. Appropriate speechBS were made by Hon.

Yesterday afternoon, while two men were starting out crabbing from the foot of Forty ninth Oowanus, they came across the body of a man floating is the water. One of the men attached it to boat and towed it Into tbe dock. The polios of the Eighth aub Prednot were notified and found tbe body be that of a man about 85 years old, five feet eight in height, having dark ssndy hair aud mustache, a soar on the left side of his face and dressed dark clothing. In on of ths pockets was found a memorandum book, in wbioh was written, Mr. O'Koefe, give the bearer what you hava for John P.

Murray." When theas facta ware telegraphed to Headquarters, Mr. James Kesnan, one of th telegraph operators, remembered that a man named P. Murray was missing on ths 29th uli. Turning to th records he found such to be the ease and accordingly notified Mr. P.

H. McNally, a brother tn of the deceased. He went to where the body was, at once Identified it as that of Murray. Mr. Murray left home on the evening of the 30th, and bas been Been since.

It is believed he accidentally fell overboard. The body waa sent to his late residence, 517 Hicks street.

The halt was crowded with members of the A. W. Tenney Assoolatlon. Mr. John 8.

Donaghy, the President of the organization, ocoupled the ohalr during the meeting, and Mr. William MoKee, the Secretary, recorded the proceedings, A fine por trait in oil ot Mr. Tenney, a obromo of Washington and a steel engraving of Lincoln looked down from tbe walls, wbloh wore lavishiy draped with bunting. The little pulpit, which served fas a speaker's desk, was flanged by American flags. Announcement hal been made that the Rev.

Dr. Fulton would deliver an address on "The Amerioa of the Future." The reverend gentloman was In troduced by the Chairman. Amid loud applause he flung his raanusoript on the cable and began his address. After referring to the greatueas of tha nation and the glories of ita past career, Dr. Fulton got DOWN TO POLITICS IN KABNBST.

When, ho said with tremendous emnhasIS. the solid South sends its best men to Cougress to do aud dare for 8 luthern institutions we're got to match them with men who do not fear to go there and look Into their eyo3 and meet their baser views with arguments of truth aud Justice. We must meet thim with men who shall stand for the right until truth shall win the victory over error and until they drive out the thoughts whioh tnada slavery a virtue and meanness a habit. Dr. Fulton then went on to tell a atory of along, lank, gawky Yermonter whom he met dur lug the early days of tho Rebellion at a hotel in Philadelphia "What are you doing down askod th dootor.

"I beard that Mr, Lincoln had some trouble getting to Washington and I thought I'd oome down and see him through." repliel the Vermontor. The speaker next aaw bis Vermont friend on the deok of a Potomac stumer, A large number of Southerners were on board, and they soon engagod ia a quarrel with the Northern men. Knives and pistols began to oome out of the pookets. and a fight was Imminent. At this junoture the long Yermonter came pushing bis way tnrougu the crowd, and as be oama he said "Vermont' a coming," and then they called the roll of tho otates, ana in nro minutes not a Doutneruer oouiu us seen on the deoks.

What I want, continued the speaker, is that we shall look into the faces of those men and say, "Vermont's a coming, and New York la coming, too." ryny, iusnop uuDort navon a lew year ago was driven out of his hotel la Atlanta beoause he rode through the streets with a negro who could speak six languages. Some time ago when I was in the South on tha way from Montgomery to Atlanta I met about forty Ku Elux on the train. Along in the vening a man said to me "Who are yon, air This he asked me beoause I had ridden In the ou WITH A BLACK MAN, who oouldn't ride where those scoundrels did because be had a black skin. When that man said, "Who are you?" I replied, "It's none of your business." An other man said, "We want to know who you are 7" aatrf A UfM HUT. I.

knal. ceas when Le gave up his sword under the apple tree." ne saio. "rvnat are you going to ao aoout irr I said, "I'm going to talk and preaoh and have a good time until the time oomeB to clear you fellows out again." Now, young men, to do that we want a man in congress. We don't want a boy we don't want a woman, Many people make a mistake about Chris tians. The Christian is a man who owdb the world and walks it as a king.

Tho pluoklest man is tbe best Christian. Paul was. What we want going South and overy where la men who will stand ud to tne rock and be true. Brain must meet brain, thought must meet snougur, or wntt ougas to oe aone will never be aone. It Is fashionable in some psrts of the world to talk against our American men.

I say there were never better men than onr American men. We've got to call them to the front, Amerioa has never bean so great, so big and so grand aa it has sinoe Ulysses the First has Deen waixing round tno worm, ureal applause zoi lowed the Dootor's reference to Grant. Tho speaker went on to dlsouss tbe treatment of the negro in the South and to glorify the colored man and to traduoa the whites. After, he said, the colored men have been treateu so in ttoutn uarouna, as uonxuug sail igreai applause that's right, now give bim a oheer thro obeers for Conkllng and send him word that you did It alter, as he said, in the City of Charleston, with its 8,000 Republican majority, the oolored man can't hav a plaoe to vote after THE SOLID SOUTH sends up its representatives to Congress and says that shall paj the Confederate war debt. After these men come to us with claims which they say shall paid, I say that religion bsB never made such progress as evlnoed by the departure of Northern physicians and nurses for tha plague stricken South.

Taey have been loved with a full heart. In every plaoe a box ia laced lor tha yellow fever sufferers. A charity that as such a spirit must have an influence in the world. After his reference to the yellow fever, Dr. Fulton reverted to the oolored man.

When we went down Boutb, he said, we oarried lore to them in our hearts and In our muskets. What for To rest the South by lifting from their shoulders the burden of slavery and bidding them walk with us. Wo did not go with hste we wont with love to them. And now shall we give them up The greet ooufllct in whioh we are engaged is the same as that during the war. Tho question is not settled, toe' work is not done.

It never will be done. Our ohildren must fight for it, as we have fought. Let us go on with tbe work, Tbe speaker here went on at length to glorify tho Republican party, which be held had been tbe salvation of the nation. This nation, he ssid, in oontin. uing, hat a mission.

There are 11,000,000 square miles of arable laud on the Western Continent and only 10,000 square miles of arable land on the Eastern Continent. Our facilities for supporting a population are larger than those of Europe, Asia and Africa. Tbe consequence Is we will have the people. What kind of a nation shall we build up Shall It be a narrow browed nation or a large browed, large hearted nation, with benevolence for its law and charity for its charter It has been the Baying among all nations that wbat is won by arms must be held by arms. I saw, after th war, the grand army marching home, I saw them disband and mingle with the people, and yet not a law was violated.

A nation that can do that oan anything. What a comparison with tbe systems in Germany, France and other countries, where they are compelling conscription, retarding education and preventing tha national growth, Beoause of this spirit Europe is little better then a camp of armed men. The outlook there to day Is tinged with blood. Amerioa la the home of the people. Let ns be able to say that of the South.

Let the dootrlnes of Jefferson become the law in Georgia, lu Louisiana, in Alabama, South Carolina and in Texas. We've got to think about these things. WHSN WE NOMINATED BBOTHBE HAYES other day and tried to elect him, I went to Mr. Chandler, the head of the Republican National Committee at tbe Fifth arenue Hotel, nJ said to bim, ''Let aome of ua go down there and talk to the ne RroeB." He said It was no use. I'd like to get a chance go down there.

Wa have got to tell these mea that they have a right to a free ballot and a right to free apeeoh. Dr. Fulton then went on to narrato the story tbe troubles In the Louisiana Legislature, when, he said, three negro members of the Legislature were oarried off to the swamp, but Grant bad them brought back. Then, he said, we had a man who oould be elected three terms or thirty terms a man who turned his face on the white mob at Washington and on the white mob in New York, and turned it to the Sag, ta God anl to Phil Sheridan. Liughtsr and applause.

They liked it. They'll like it again. I wish to relate A XjITTLS INCIDENT. When I was lecturing In Memphis a man named J. D.

Graves, who organized a oompany during the war and armed them with pikes, gotnp and said to me, "I want ask you a question." "What is It 7' said I. "Would you let your daughter marry a nigger I said, "You ought to have a leather medal for asking a question that has never been asked bef ore. Applause, But, aid I've got a very handsome daughter I am very particular about her, and mean to have her remarkably well. If a German wants my daughter must be flu looking, with a good face, a good eduoatioo, good business capaolty and be a good Baptist. If an Irishman wants my daughUr he must be fins looking, with a good faoe, good eduoatlon, good business oapaolty and be a good Baptist, If a negro wants my daughter he must be fine looking, with a good faor, a good education, good business capaolty and be a good Baptist." Said the man, "You've got no business to put a nigger there," That reminded me a story, whioh I told bim.

A Little Job In the Twenty first Ward Killed More Beads in Danger The Shrievalty Contest.

The attempt of the $3,500 Oommisflionor Bennett to bulldoze employes of the Denartmanf of City Work into aupportlng certain of hi candidates for office, notably Chittenden, aa exposed in the Kaols of yesterday, was tho theme ot the politicians who cluster about the new Munlolpal Building and Court Houaa to day. This little gome of Bennett extends further than Ohitteudeu; Its objeot la also to send Worth delegations to the County Convention, and to oontrol Aldermanio nominations of his party. As yet, the Ttreuty firat Ward la tbe only one In whioh Bennett'a maneuvers have been fully shown up; but tha fruit la almost ripe In other wards, and lively times may be anticipated. Hla removal of James Kenny for daring to aide with the Tenney element ot the Republican party of the Twenty first Ward promise to be followed by tbe dis charge of other employes of the Department who have similarly offended slnos thoy wore recently ordered to work with the Chittenden gang by the Commissioner. At tbe meeting of ths ward association, but night, Kouny, with sovaril employes of ths Department, prevented Bennett's friends from stocking the assoolatlon with "Indeplndents, and others who were to have been mad membor, In order vote at tbe coming primaries.

THB JOB. Th story about the Hall to day, was that Scbarman, the brewer, who Is a warm friend of Bennett, had a large number oi men to proposa for mombershlp, who would vote as hs dlrocted; but tho lob would not work The opposition saw through it, and being In tho major ty, sat down on Scharman and his friends. What Is mors thsy also prevonted th reception ot a report of the Investigating Committee, who are ready to repot tn favor ot ninety five namea proaented at the previous meeting. Of those nlnety flva applloants, It is fair to assume the great bulk had been flxod In the Chittenden Worth interest. Tba City Works place holders were tbe loudest In their opposition, saying that they did not oare whether they lost their employment or not.

The politicians are waiting to see what Mr. Bennett will do about It. Mr. Soharman, who waa oloseted with Bennett and Worth in the Commissioners' office the greater part of yesterday forenoon arranging for the meeting, la greatly chagrined at the failure ot last night. Its oflect will be to prevent a large number of men who would auoport Chittenden and Worth, aa well as the oandldate for Alderman, from par ticipating In the primaries.

There is great Interest fere la regard to THB NOMINATION FOB ALDKBUAN. John M. Phelps has been named as the probable oandldate of the Chittenden element for the nomination, out tome or his mends ssy tbst be does not want it. On ths other side ths most prominently mentioned are George J. Collins, th stationer, and a Mr.

Edmoadson. Mr. Collins is oas of th parties who saw Bennett in referenoe to the removal of Eennoy and protested against It. He said this morning that the impression bad gone forth among some of hla friends that his visit to Bennett had to do with the Congressional contest. He desired it to be understood that he had taken no part in that matter.

He heard of the suspension of Eenney, and, "to assure himself of th truth of tbe report, to oertain the oause of the suspension, and to possibly benefit the unfortunate vio tim of oftlolal wrath, he waited on Mr, Bennett. Tho rest was known." Mr. Collins added Let me say, however, thst you cannot fathom th contempt felt by respectable citizens ot the Twenty.flrst Ward at the attempt to bulldoze unfortunate underlings." All decent RspubUcans condemn Bennett's conduct, and though he may affect to believe that it Is something in which the public have no interest, the general impression Is that it wiU injure not only him but his party. The $5,000 Commissioner Flaherty Is too shrewd to work so openly as Bennett. They hare an equal interest in Republican success tbis Fall, and neither hesitate to use tha men uuder them, but while one Is stupid and blundering In his work th other is an adept, vigilant and sly.

THB SHRIEVALTY. There is a delightful uncertainty In regard to th nomination for Sheriff by all parties. Jus ice Riley, Auditor Searing and James Rodwall cintinue to be tno most prominent candidates on the Democratic silo of the house. Tbe friends of Aldermsu Kans, of th Sixth Ward, are urging him for tha nomination. He has been Indorsed by soms labor organizations and Is favorably mentioned by some of tbe Indepindtnls but Dan O'Reilly Is understood to be the coining man.

There is a great hurrah tor Worth, but Stegman and his friends are quietly but efficiently at work, and shrewd politicians predict that the Colonel will the nominee He is personally popular and is supported by ths best alsment of his party. Worth's friends olalm to have a hundred delegates already, although not one has yet been elected, and as only eighty odd are noceasary to a oholoe they figure out his nomination at a foregone conclusion.

A NEW FERRY.

One to be Operated Between the Eastern District and Forty aeoond Street, New York. The Company Formed and the Ground for Slips and Ferry Honses Selected Work to be Bosran Shortly New Boats to be Built What One of the Projectors Says. For some time past a movement has been on foot among Eastern Distrlot capitalists to operate a ferry between that section of the oltjr and the central portion of New York on the East River. The coatem plated enterprise did not take definite shape until quite recently, when a company was formed and a suf. sum of mono; was subscribed to warrant the oomtnenoement of work on ferrj houses and slips at an early date.

Th) lauding solicwl on this side, from The start, was tho vaotnt blook adjoining the Brooklyn Ferry Company's premises, at the foot of Uroidwajr and running South 8ixth street. The property, whioh in very oitonslvj and vroll adapted for ferry purposes, la owned by Mr. Loftus Wood, Prastdant of the Franklin avenue Railroad Company. Mr. Wood it Is Understand nnA nt tha n.lma mnvra In tha enterprise, while the management will devolve upon vt.

inak has had previous experience In the business, as he operated a ferry opposition to Gaorgo It foot of South Eighth street abont a dozen years ago, THE NEW YOBX LANDING. Where to land on the Niw York side was the great problem whioh presented itself. To secure water front Is a comparatively easy matter, but to select location whioh would ooxnmsnd the most trafflo, re quired muoh deliberation and foresight. The rapid transit snd the street ear lines were Important factors In determining where tha slip should be situated. Thirty fourth street was mentioned and duly consid ered.

Tho Twenty third streoi Hue of osrs, whioh creases the oity, his Its terminus there, and the Belt line, Second, Third and Fourth aronue lines, as well as the elevated road, or only a few blooks distant In addition, it Is understood that an elevated road will be built across the oity from there. The only other site mentlonol was Forty sacond surest, whioh, it appears, moots with the most favor able consideration. In fsat, it Is ljaformilly agrood that the sup shall be ereoted there. The necessity for the ferry to tho first place was to meet the require' xnents of travel oonsequenl upon the inorease of bust nsss uptown In New York. As the trade advanoes north the people naturally follow.

Clerks, meohamoi and laboring men who formerly resided In the East era District movod to New York when the business ot the stores and factories In whioh they are employed WM uptown. Hundreds of unooouplea dwellings attest that sot. Had thero been ferry faoll ltiea suoh as are now proposed to oarry those parties tj their plaoes of omploymoht, they would likely have remained In Brooklyn. Then thero la considersble of a freight trafflo, whioh, like tho passenger trafflo, will Inorease atoadlfy as years roll on. The route will also likely be patronized extensively by nnerals, as It is the quickest and most direot way to all the Brook' lyn oomaterles, with possibly the exception of Calvary.

It will rellove Btery stable kaepers beside from the risks to be incurred from a drive through the crowded thoroughfares of New York. While these favorable conditions had their weight the Grand Cen tral depot alone was potent la tho reaching a final de termination. It Is justly reasoned that the route would reoelve all the trafflo to the Grand Central eaat of the Oity Hall and north ot Fulton street. Over a dozsn different street oar lines run past or have their termini at the foot of Broadway. These lines run through every part of the oity, from the Fulton Ferry, Rod Hook point, Prospeot Park, East New York, Har rison arenuo, Bsid aronue, Tompkins arenas and Bushwlck to Greenpolnt.

The shortest and qulokest way, as wait as the cheapest, as statod before, for the peopls of Brooklyn residing east of the City Hall and north of Fulton street, at least, to reach the Grand Central would be by the proposed ferry. It is the in tentlon to build a class of boats whioh will be able easily to make the trip in ten minutss. The aooommo which such a ferry would be to not only the people of the Eastern Distrlot, but to the whole oity is apparent. But it must not bo Inferred that the com. pany is going to Inaugurate the route solely for the publio good no, it is a matter of speculation.

The shareholders are oonndont that the enterprise will pay from the start. A OONVEESATION WITH MB. MNSKY. The reporter hailed Mr. John Linskey as he was lvlng along Fourth street.

Be was somewhat surprised when asked about the ferry enterprise, he apparently labored under the impression that the matter was and would remain a seoret until all the arrangements had beon perfeoted. Mr. Llnsky, in answer to the reporter's Inquiries, stated that the company has already been organized, and that work would be oommeuoed shortly, He declined to tell the names ot the men constituting the oompany, aa many of them are stockholders In the Brooklyn Ferry Company, and they would not like to appear In the light of undermining that oorporatlon. He said that tha slips on this side would be built on the raoant blook on the river front already mentioned. Forty second atreet would likely be the terminus on the New York side on aooount of the Grand Central depot.

Mr. Llnsky further stated, rather reluctantly and guardedly, that a atreet oar line would likely orosa New York from tha proposed ferry house. When reminded that Mayor Ely had vetoed a projeot of that kind a few days ago Mr. Llnsky replied that a ferry ran to the foot of that street the Mayor would likely reoonsider his aotlon. "Any way," said Captain J.

Ulea30n, who was present, "the projeot was retoed beoause tha Mayor held that the oity bad the right to dispose the privilege to run ears ou the streets over any oertain route to the highest bidder. You see, then the privilege could be sold at publio auotion, and the man or oorporatlon who gave the highest bid suppose it was only Are oents should be awarded the Mr. Llnsky further stated that advantage would be taken of all the modern Improvements in the construction of new boats. He thought boats oould be oonstruoted whioh would consume less ooal than the ones at present in use, beside making more speed. The distanoe oould be made in ten minutes.

Tha fare would be low. Reporter Do you think the enterprise will pay! Mr. Llnsky Tue men who are at the head of It are all experienced in the ferry business. They are enterprising and would like very muoh to aooommodate the publio, but in view of the faot that the publio only extend support ao far as it benefits themselves, the oompany would not care about sacrificing any considerable sum of money afford better traveling faolllties for the people. This matter has been long and oarefully deliberated, and its projectors are satisfied that It will pay from the start, consequently we are going to operate the ferry.

You ran a cheap ferry from the foot of South Eighth street years ago for the publio good," said Captain Gleason, as Mr. Llnsky drove away, "but the publio only patronized you as It suited themselves." "All we ask of the publio," replied Mr. Llnsky, reining la his horse, "is to travel on the route if suits their oourenienoe; it not they oau better themselves." PARTING WITH A PAST0B. noKOImlon of tlio Cuurcia Commit tee to Accept Or nc(Arlane' He Igr nation. The announcement of the resignation of Rev.

Alexander Mscfarlans from the pastorate of the Hanson plaoe Baptist Ohuroh, published In the Eaolb yesterday, occasioned general regret in local religious circles. It appears likely that Dr. Maof arlans will permanently leave the city, owing to the shattered state of his health. The committee appointed by the ohnroh to oonsider ths resignation and recommend a proper oouxse to be pursued met last evening at the residenoe of ex Alderman William Biohardson, corner Oxford street and Hanson place. Mr.

William Q. Wl. President of the Board of Trustees, oooupled the chair and Messrs. A. B.

Bcorill, Charles Frazier, William Richardson, Charles E. Youngs, Albert Duuton, P. Freeman, Frederick Saunders and Robert F. Austin were present. The matter under advisement was caref ally considered' and it was finally resolred recommend to the church the aooeplarjce offfieleslgnWon lo tals effect November 1, and also to recommend the payment Dr.

Maofarlane's salary up to the 1st of May, 1879. oonolnsion was readied with sorrow by the members of the Committee and only for the reason that beilovo Dr. Maofarlane's recovery would be retarded by th care of the hurch, which, it is believed, would prey upon his mind, even though he were beyond the Atlantic The mombers of the ohuroh oher a warm affection for their pastor and they deeply sympathise with him in his affliction. The recommendations of the Committee will be presented to the ohuroh at the first regular meeting and they will certainly bo adopted. Dr.

Macfarlane will soon make a to Italy, FALL AT THB BEACH.
