When Mr. Bass' circular is carefully road It bears so close a resomblance to A ORAFTY POLITICAL DOCUMENT, issued In behalf of a man or set of men who are being soroly pressed, that I cannot understand why ho was permitted to publish and olrculato It by tho gputletuon to whom tho original was addressed, before I bad a chanee to say a single word ln my own behalf. It can be shown that prior to January 1, 1881, prisoners confined hero wero brutally (logged, that thoy woro worked in tho shoe shops ou SundayB and holidays, notably Easter Sunday, 3877 and Thanksgiving day, 1880, yet Mr. Bass's voice was novor raised against thoso: outrages, on tho othor hand, his testimony beforo Investigating committoos appointed by tho Board of Supervisors, wiil, In my opinion, Justify tbo gontlomon to whom bis circular Is addressed, in maklriK Inqulrios into Mr. Boss's fitness for tho position ho occupies as chaplain of th Kings County Penitentiary, and It may not be out of place to stato that, during tho admlniatration of his modol wardon, tho records show that thlrty sovon prisoners were transferred to tho lunatic asylum.

Hess resides on Fourth avenue and Seventeenth street, in this city. He has begun a suit in tbe Supreme Court, through Counselor II. C. Mac Krell, against William B. Shaw, a carpot dealer, to ro cover $95.

Plaintiff alleges that on Septombor 10, 1881, he bought from defendant a carpet which lie was to deliver, cut, fit and put down at plaintiff's residence, which defendant did dolivor, out, fit and put down as aforesaid. Plaintiff olleges, ou iuforuia iou nnd belief, that the defendant employed and Bout to plaintiff's houso to put dowu tho carpet one George Llppo, or a person known by that name, and that thi3 person was, at tho time of bis employment by the defondant and at tho timo of his putting down the carpet, a common thief, and that he had commitlod acts of burglary and larceny, or embezzlement, beforo, antl did commit after bis employment, as above stated, by tho defendant. Plaintiff nllogea that at the time when tho said George Lippe pnt down tho carpet plaintiff had 95 in tho drawer of a bureau ln the room wbpro tbo carpet was put down, and tbat said Georgo Llppo took, stolo and carried away tbo money.

His buggy was smashed, and ho get a Judgment ln tho City Court against Roth for tho value of tho vehicle.

Defondant moved for a new trial on the minutes on tho ground that, the matorlal having been placed ou tho street by tbe builder under a pormlt from tbo Board ot City Works, tbe owner wa3 not liablo. ThlB morning Judge donled tho motion with this memorandum "Tl.o defendant's liability rests upon tbe fact that ho caused an obstruction to'be placed In tho highway opposite to his promises. It Is true that tho work waB done under a contractor, and tho material deposited on tho Btroet which caueed the obstruction that the carriage was placed thoro by tho immediate order ot tho contractor and not of tho defondant but It Is also true that tho work which tho dorondaut required done, necessarily involved tho use of the street for tbo deposit of material. Buch use of a highway, unless care Is takon to protect the public against accident, necessarily involves to a greater or loss oxtont danger to travelers, and It is upon this ground that I understand tho lator authorities hold tho employer equolly with the contractor liable. Tbo motion for a new trial Is therefore denied.

Why Slocum Should Have Been In dorscd. To the Editor of tlic Brooklyn Eagle It is an admitted faot that good government would not bo obtainable by the coming election had not the Joffersouians ehown the way. Had thoy remained passlvo, sb tbelr opponents remalnod passive undor party abuse, tho unseemly uoramblo for nomination by throe candidates would uot havo occurred. All other intorests are mado to subserve tho thirst for office of the pot and kottlo statesmen, Should the ring conquer, and It may, Mr. Low, speaking to tho Germans "in tho language of their Fatherland," would make a flue design for Puck.

This estimable gentleman's nomination was mado bsoauso a most worthy candidate was already In tbo field, who might recolvo tho lutelllgont vote of the Republican party. If the real question at issue could be brought plainly boforo each voter, the people would override the machines of both the regular parties, but as tho time Ib too ehort for that tho right may be dofoated. Better an honorable defeat than a dishonorable victory, and it may be a dlBhonorablo defeat nwattu thoso who avotdod an assured success In not indorsing Goneral Slocum, Voieb. la favor of illr. Howoll.

To tht Editor of tba Brooklyn Sagli As a Domoorat of over forty yours standing, I feel that 1 have a right to speak, and I know that I volco thousands of Domoorats in this city whon, from my heart of hearts, I thank Mr. Kiusella for his munly and Democratic speech at the meeting of the Coutral Democratic Association last Saturday night. Willi harmony In tho party wo can elect our candidate. Let us harmonize aud unite as 0110 man to achieve a Democratic victory this Fall. The Republicans have shown by their acts that tbey do not core a fig for Brooklyn's Interest all taey are after Is the plunder.

The third city of the Union wants no boy for mayor. What we want 1b a man of ago and experience in our muulolpal affairs, a man of unquestioned Integrity and ability, iu James Howell wo have such a candidato. Let ub rally as one man, aud thus Insure hit, olection by the largest majority ever given to a candidate for Mayor of Brooklyn. Au Iudopondont Democrat of the Seventeenth Wabd, What au Independent Democrat Proposes to Do. To the Editor of tht Brooklyn Eagle I am an Independent Democrat, and have been one for some time, and wbllo I feel with tho Eaolb that wo havo boen treated very shabbily, to Day tbo least, by tbe Republican party managers, still my duty and that of my fellow Indopoudout Domocrats seems plain to mo.

We are fightiug for a principle, Tho right of overy Democrat to havo a volco In tbe party's management, fair aud open primaries, and no dictation. We must Bhow tho leading Domocrats of the State that those men who attend tho State Conventions year aftor year do not represent tho bettor elomont of tho Democratic party in this county, and tho best way, in my humble opiuiou to do this is to have thoir oounty and city ticket run away behind the State tlckot. I know somo Demoorats will object to throwing tho clty'a government Into tho hands of tho ltopubllcans, but I would consider it a blessing in disguise, the ouly way to overcome tbe existing stato of things is to destroy the bonohunt ers. Tho Democratic party, nationally, has lived without patrouago for the past twonty years, and 1 think tbe Democratic party, locally, can exist for tho next two years, or more if necessary, without it. I consider MoLuughllniem far moro dangerous to Democracy than Republicanism.

Our young men are drifting away into tbe Republican fold. If wo do not defeat bosBlsm now wo shall novor do so, and our city will eventually become a Republican city. Already the Boss' heelers aro about, shouting bis praises aud lauding his sagacity, and claiming a Rteat victory ovor tbo Independents. Our duty, undor tbe circumstanccB, is plain. If Genera! Slocum should resign let it be in favor of Mr.

Low. Conference or no conference, If General Hlocutn is not a candidato on election aay, I intend to cast my ballot for Mr. Seth Low, and I earnestly advise all woll meaning Democrats to do tho same, becauso we eboutd lovo prlnclplo above pnti'oucKe and look to the future of our party. If I am in error in my conclusions I havo tho Eaole to blame, for It has strengthened my detestation of boss ism in politics. Mr.

Ktusolla oxprssnes my foelings exactly when ho saya ho "would uot vote for a man whom ho had no volco lu nominating." It 1b true, as the Eagle says, "the voters of tho independent party canuot bo traded off." F. L. Can the Democratic Party Win, and Boss Kulc SJo Pnt Down To the Editor nf the Brooklyn Eagle: In the brief interview which you accorded to mo last evening, though personally a stranger to you, I had aniplo opportunity to observo tho force aud magnetism of yourself, of wbioh tho Eaqlk only had furnished tho evidonce. I felt tbot 1 was in tho presence of a mastei' mind, wblch fully comprehended tho necessities and the interests of the people of Brooklyn. I thougnt I dotectod in your face an psprosslon of regret nt tbo course which your sense of duty causes you to pursue with regard to the groat Democratic party, of which you are so oouspicuous a light Your remarks concerning boas rule in Brooklyn wero felt by mo to be true and just.

Your promises wero sound, but I take the liberty of dissenting from your conclusions. All good aud Intelligent Democrats recognize tho Importance, aye, tbo nocespity of Demooratlo reorganization In our olty, from which ovory traco of ono man power shall bu eliminated. But tho problem is how can that result bo bast brought about. Is it bettor, HJfo blind Ramson, to pull down tho pillars of tho Demooratlo tomplo, and bury friends and foes alike in the deurti of defeat, or, llko Brutus, to stab Cmsar In tbe 8enato Chamber? If bossl6m must bo shot to death, let not the weapon be exploded in a crowd of your own friends. After this election you will find thousands of Demoorats who have heretofore taken no active part iu politics, and who havo no axeH to grind, ready and determined to co op orate with you iu your noble effort to raiBe our party to a higher plane of respectability, Influence aud power.

Who la so well equipped as yourself to bo our loader in snob a holy crusade X'ho oourse of tho Eaole in this matter not only has awakeuod publlo attention to the necessity or reform in our Democratic organization, but it has made it clear that you are our national and inovftablo loader in the movement. I know tho view which you hold. You havo often boon told beforo eloctlon that a change for the better would be made in our organization. These promises havo not been realized. Yuu seem 10 have lost faltb iu tho ca paoity of your tellow Democrats for self government, and lu what I deom a moment of rashness you aro Inclined to surrender tho Democratic City of Brooklyn to Republican rulo.

I beg that you will coniiider the far roachlng consequences of such a catastrophe. The Boss may noed Just such 0b.aall3eruc.ut to retire bim from his autocratic position In Brooklyn politics, but suroly, surely the cood people of Brooklyn deserve a bettor fate. The loss of this Democratic stronghold would Involve tho defeat of tho State ticket, and would Jeopardize success In tho next national contest. I know that suoh results would be revolting to you, and yet thoy seem to be Inevitable in view of the present attitude of the Eaolk toward Mr. Howell.

Your motives are unquestionably good, but so wore those of Saul, when breathing out thteatcnlngs and slaughter, he took tbe road to Damascus. I fervently trust tho light of Dlvluo guidance will shine about you, and that from an Incensed persecutor you may become tho eloquent and faithful champion of Democratic unity, aud tho steady upholder of our ancient faith. T. C. T.

An Appeal to Democrats to Get Kid oi Hossjlfrin Itopubllcan Stupidity. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle "Como let us reason together. You and I have one object In common, at least, and that Is tho good of our city. Now, without any resentments or recriminations about the past or the events which have occurrod during tho laBt dayB in regard to. the Mayoralty question, lot us look tho present condition square iu the face.

I havo boon lying awako slnco 3 o'clook this morning thinking about it. If Gonoral Slooum withdraws to night, as it is said that he will, wo have thou but two candidates lu tho Held. Ono, tho Boss' man on tho Democratic side and th6 other, an bonest, buElness man, of good abilities, untrammelled by party pledges, of whom you have spoken no words but thuso of commendation whoso nomination was forced upon tho Republican macblno men. I know thlB, for I waB in the the citizens' council who did it Republicans and Democrats together. Thu macblno Republicans would uot take Ripley Ropes, nor would they havo taken or indorsed Gonoral Slocum.

Now my point is thlB Events over which neither you nor I had control have enlmlnat od iu our having, aa I said above, two candidatos In tho field for Mayor, and "cau a Roman Senate long debate which of tho two to choose?" It seems to mo that tho opportunity Is now furnished for you and Slocum, and Marshall and a host of others to smaBh tho Boss' machine, for if tho Jefforsonlans, as a body or Individual, work from this day fill noxt Tuesday in the inter est of good government, and make Beth Low Mayor, tho Boss and his cohorts will receive Buch a blow between the eyes that they may never recovor I Lot me beg of you to lay aside all previous views and wishes and prejudices, and make a "strong pull all together" for tbe hiffheit good of our olty. Please show this to General Slooum for whom I and thousands of others would have worked with a will had he beeu the loading citizens' candidate and ask him not to let his toolings of disappointment, that the Republican machine did not indorse him, stand In tho way of bis helping ou tbe election of Seth Low, as against the Boss' candidate. If you take this Btaud, and open the columns of tbe Eagle 02 tho right side, Low's election will be assured. And now word on another point: I think you are right in taking tho A'eio I'urk Times to task. Thole article was a mean attack upon you.

But in refuting it I think you havo mado some mistakes. PleaBe look over tho report in the Eagle, of that meeting at the Academy October 20, and you will see that it was a citizens' nomination, not party. The nomination of Seth Low was made by Ripley KopuB, as a citizen (see his speech), and socondod by Mr. Fleeman, a life long Democrat and tbe resolutions and speeches, with the oxoeptlon of General Tracy's, wero all on that side aa against the machine. Tho platform on which Low was nomlnatod, and upon whloh ho has accepted, Is the Identical ono at the rink mooting where Ripley Bopos was nominated.

The Republleau convention, by previous arrangement with thoir oommittee, very roluotantly nominated Beth Low at their meeting on the afternoon of tho 20th, and tho "citizens" put him lu nomination iu tho even inn, many Domocrats joining In it. I think with you, that tho Republican maohino men have aote'd liko fools, to say the loast in not Indorsee such mon as Lauer, Marshall and others for minor offices, instead of putting upBUch miserable men as BobbIihz you to excuse tho length of this, as woll as the liberty 1 have takon, I am very truly and hastily yours, S' a HR. MAY BAUM'S WITHDRAWAL. Brooklvn, Ootobor 31, 1881. To Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: It was not my intention to be a candidate for Mombor of tho Assembly from the Eleventh District, and hence had declinod the same.

I was, how over urged to accept tho nomination In view of having but one candidal for the entire Democracy of tho district Republicans and Domocrats both urged me to withdraw my letter of declination and I did. I now find that tho regular Democratic association have AHrod C. Cbapin, during the in erval between my domination and reacceptanco, although I had bad tQOir maorHtjmuufc oi uj pin's reputation, through his presidency of tho Youna Men's Demooratlo Club, is familiar to me. He has never boen a membor of any other political organization, and I do not Bee why I cannot onnalatently give him my heartiest support, and o. I do uot dosiro by my candidacy to assist In olocting the Republican candidate and, therefore retire from the oanvass.

I thank my frionds very muo'h for their support and nomination, and hope that thov will agree with me aa to tho propriety of my aotlon. L. Maybaum. HOBB WABD NOMINATIONS, The following additional ward nominations wore mado laat ovoning Fourth Word Ropublloan. For alderman, Dr.

Wloso, Effecting an Organisation 111 tho Twentieth Ward. if A meoting for the effootive organization of tho Republicans of the Twentieth Ward was hold last evening under the auspices of tho Young Men's Republican Club, at No 17 Greene avomie, and was well at tended.

James F. Nichols oallod tho meoting to order, and said they had oonvened for tho purpose of adopt lug Bomo means, aa advocated by tho Young Men's Ropublloan Club, for Judiciously organizing tho ward. In ordor that as many votes aa lay In thoir powor could bo secured on eleoton day for the representative ot good government, Setb Low, whom thoy all deBlrcd to soe In the municipal chair of tho City of Brooklyn. Tho membors of the Young Mon's Republican Club, ho said, are carrying on a splended work, as a visit to their hoadquarters that aftornoon had convinced him. Uo had been dologatod by tho Central Committee to suggest for adoption certain HncB of notion.

Mr. Nlonols hero road a paper whloh It was proposed to uso In a bouse to bouse oanvass, pledging tho subsorlbore to vote for Mr, Low. Thoro had boon a varloty of opinions, bo said, regarding tbe policy or oxpodiency or circulating such a potltlon or doouroont. Borne ot the greatest admirers of thoir candidate wore dlvldod with regard to the wisdom of suoh a measure. Tho speaker, individually, was lnellned to favor the projeot as providing, tho means of knowing who wero the actual legal voters of the ward, and thus enabling the organization to comprehend JuBt whero thotr strength lay.

With the paper In question, thoy could mako a personal canvass of oach uoueo In the ward, and could ask Domocrats as well as Republicans to yoto for Mr. Low, It should be remembered that a Democrtlo vote counted two for their candidate. In visiting a houso, if thoy found a Republleau who refused to give his name to tbo petition, they could MA KB A NOTE OF IT. If thoy found a Democrat who proposed to voto for James Howoll, they eould mako a note of that also. Ho waB aware that eomo objected vory strongly to the pledge, and a gentleman friend had characterized It as au outrago to circulate suoh a potltlon but it should be well underatood that tho Young Republicans ara bound to make a personal canvais this year.

Tho city had never been so thoroughly worked, and If, In tho oourso of thoir Investigations, they found anyone who would not vote for Mr. Low, they had an excellent excuse for speaking of tho admirable ticket which bad been offered to the citizens and voters ot Brooklyn. The club last year peddled ticketB, and that was about all thero was or It but they had pod plod them so sucoessrully as to mako an effective can vobs thlB year. They wanted volunteers to staud at tho polls, It necessary, from sunrlso to sunset on election day. Mr.

Nichols was loudly applauded as he took hiB seat, F. B. Chandler sold ho supposed that they woro all agreed that tho oomlng election was one of tho mOBt Important In tho history of the city. They had a standard bearer, a gontloman who It was believed would make an excellont Mayor. His nomination had been brought about iu part by tho Young Men's Ropublloan Club, and tho apoaker adverted to the Influence which had resulted In the rollromout of two gontlomon from tho campaign, and the seloctlon of tho present oandldato, It was a ward which Is known as the banner Ropublloan Ward of the city, and a groat deal dependB on the Ceutral Committee as to tho number of votes cast.

It Is exooodingly important that thoy discharge their duty as a club and as members of tbo Republican party. Thoro are sovoral ways In which they can bring about tho matter thoy desire. WITH BEOARD TO THE PLAN, thoro may bo varieties of opinion. It has boon thought doBirable to apportion out tbe election districts, and it has also been doomed equally desirable to find out who would vote. They could effectively canvass the whole ward, and if they accertaiued that there were any votorB who were too 111 to walk to the polls on olection day, thoy could, on finding out it thoy intended to support tho Republleau uoiniuoes, take a arriago to their respective rcaidcucon, provido them with the necessary tickets, sea them to the polls aud also see that they wero comfortably returned to their homos, Mr.

Chaudler dwelt at considerable length ou the necessity of manning tho polls, and was loudly applauded. Henry Sanger Suow said that bo thought It might bo woll to indlcato tho plan of organization. Thero were about 230 membera residing in tho ward. The ward had boon divided into eight uleotiou districts, with a ohairmau for oach district, who hr.d appointed as a subcommittee a number of geutloiuen living in his respective district, consequently, the organization lu the ward had eight ulootlon committees to look after tho Interests of tho voters of that section of the city. It had beou determined that a largo number of volunteers woro needed to distribute tickets on olection day, and the Importance of this raoasure could not bo underestimated.

Many voters came to the polls undecided and tbeso, by tho proper kiud of management, might ba secured. The speaker alluded to tho nocesalty of providing volunteers for the three election districts north of Myrtlo aveuue, which included that known as the Navy Yard, and all of which contained but few UK rube of the club. Theao must bo manned by persons living outside of Iho distrlot. Ho sdvooated a thorough canvass 01 tho ward. The chairman epoko of tho need of monoy in ordor to carry on tbe campaign successfully.

It wsb required for advertising, for printing tickots, for oarrlago hire, oto. Some thought that or $25,000 would be n6C0ssary, aud he had underatood that the DEMOCRATIC GENERAL OOMMITTEE had received $27,000 for election purposos, and believed that their allies in New York City stood ready, on ac oount of tho importance of the Stato tickot, to furnish more fuudB. Thoy could know, therefore, what they had to contest la that direction. J. E.

Crowell said that tho association had received a letter asking whother It would be desirable for tho body to Indorse all tho candidates, or to indorse Bomo and not all. Opinions differed with rosard to thiB and tho matter rested with tho association to offer a suggestion. Ho alluded to tho necessity of hard work aud said that it must be remembered that tho county bad a Domo cratic majority of 10,000, vot03. Tbo Republicans must depend, therefore, uot alone on Republican votes but must oxert themselves to tho utmost 10 sacuro the suffrages of the Independent Democrats as well. In all probability on olection day thDro would be ouly ono candidato Mayor Howoll in opposition to 3Ir.

Low. And thero wero special reasons why tho last named gontloman should bo clocted. It had been asserted that tho rate of taxation waB lower. This might be true, but the valuation of property had been largely increased. Tho apoaker knew ot certain pieces or property which had been INCREASED IN VALUE from $10,000 to $15,000 moro than tbey could bo aold for.

This ho looked upon as nothing less than 6heer robbory, and ha thought it could be eo explained as to havo Its effect on Democratic voters and taxpayers. Tho question in the coming eloutlon was whether tho better olasssB of tho community are to take tho matter in their bands or whether tho bosses are going to be permitted to continue their rulo. Tho indifferonco In pro vioue years ou tho part of citlzenB to taking part In securing good government had turned out to be a fal laoy. Everyono who owned au inch of ground should lie interested In havlns tho affairs of tho city properly managed. Tbo county and aity ofllCDB must bo filled by gentlemen and not as horetoforo bo that if citizen rnado inquiry for Information nt tbo Boglster'e, County Clerk's or Sheriff's ofllco ho would receive civil treatment.

The Young Republicans proposed to work assiduously In tbo present campaign by (calling on evory votor, holding commltteo meetings for tho pur pOBe of heaving reporta and lu othor ways. They expected, also, to ascertain tho legal voters. A resolution offered by Mr. Candler that tbo rep reseutatives at the polls wear badges of tho club, aud that tho entire tlokot bo indorsed, was unanimously adopted. A largo number of gentlemen offerod their services for work ot tho polio, and $35 was raissd by 0 oolloo tion.

A long discussion on tho advisability of epuuglag tho word plodgo from tbo document boforo alluded to ensued, and tho mottor waB fluauy tablod, Tho meeting then adjournod. PENITENTIARY MANAGEMENT. Harden Green Replies to Chaplain Buas Is tho Reverend Gentleman Playinjr Politico in a iouc Way Brooklyn, October 31, 1881. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle On the 10th day of August, 1881, I mado my first annual report to tho Honorable Boord of Charities and Corrections. It contained charges against tho wardon who preceded me that havo uover been met experts were eaut to examine the rocords he loft; they asked for ton days aud havo boen hero about six weeks, aud havo uot yet got through with their work to the satisfaction of Mr.

Shevlln. He has askod for committeo to bo appointed by the Board of Supervisors to inveatlgate tho charges I mede against blm the committee haB not been appointed, aud when it is, It will uot tsko long to convince Its members of tho truth of the charges I have made. In tho meantime, Rev. J. G.

Bass, chaplain to tho Kings County Penitentiary, with a vlow, no to break the force of tho charges made against Mr. Shevlln, issues a circular letter, nominally to tho President and Executive Commltteo of the Brooklyn City Mission and Tract Society, but really to tho public, to whom I am informed ho personally distributed copies of it. This is not the first nor the second time that Mr. Bass baa gone to the assistance of his friend Mr. Shcvlin when tho latter was ln peril, and although reluctant to engago in a controversy with a clergyman, I canuot permit statements mado by him that are incorrect and which refioot upon me to pass by unooutradicted.

MR. BASS AND THE OLD BEOIHr. On the second day of JaDuary, 1881, I was introduced to Mr. Bass, by Mr, Shovlln, and beforo I could reaeh out my hand, Mr. Bass said to me ln a touo of voles that certaluly bofittcd noither bis age nor calling, that he was sorry I bad boen appointed, that ho was Borry I bad come to take tho place of so good a man as Mr.

Bhovlln. He thon began a most ulsonio oulogy of Mr, Bhevlln, who had retired after iutroduclng mo, and stated, as I thought, by way of opology for his rudoness toward me, that he had spoken so warmly ou behalf of Mr. Shovlln, becauso that gontloman bad always treated him very kindly, and concluded by holdlug up Mr. Shovlln as a model for mc to take pattern from. When he gave me an opportunity to speak, I told him that nono of tho privileges ho enjoyod undor Mr.

Shuvlln's administration would be interfered with, and tho roverond gentleman cannot specify a slnglo Instance whore any request he made was not complied with, nor a pass Issued to show his frionds through tho shops that was not honored, though I have often had to attend to tho prison door ln person that I might bo ablo to dotail a keeper for that purpose. WHO IS THE BIGOT In his version of my reply when ho asked ms to attend his service, he does not quote me correctly nor himself fully. He asked mo to attend the service ho hold. I told him I did not think It would bo right for me to do so as I was a Catholic He thon said that Mr. Shevlln had attended, and I replied that Mr.

Bhevlln had that right if he chose. It Is only Blnce tho publication or my report that Mr. Bass onanged in hie manner toward me, as previous to that date he always greeted me with a friendly shake of the hand, and had taken dinner with mo, and I havo told him to mako himself at home when ho called at the Penitontiary, and If ho happened to drop In at meal timo not to wait to be aBked to sit at tho table. I also told him that if any person conneoted with tho Institution Bhould Interfere with hlra in any way, to report the same to me and that ho would bo satisfied with my action In the matter. Mr.

BasB has had POLITICAL DISCUSSIONS In the keepers' room, advocating the re oleotlon of Mayor Howell, and was courteously listened to by those who, while thoy dlfforod with him, made no comment, and It Is difficult to understand whero the disoourteBy to blm oomes in, as hs had the rreodom of the prison, to go whero he pleased without asking or being asked any questions. His referonco to Commissioner Sbipmsn is BUBcepti blo of contradiction, as tbo facts will not sustain the reverend gentleman's aQBortion, and it Is to bo deplored tbot Mr. Bass should so far forget himself as to assail the commissioner becauso tbe lattor, aB I understand, for good and stifflolont reasons, REFUSED MB. BAS3' SON to a position in the Ponitentiary. Mr, Bass was never charged by mo that he sold hie friendship for $100 a year, aud it required a heavy draft upon his Imagination when be made that statement.

As to tho ohargeB that I am a bluot. that I have de clared his religious services were A nuisances, and that my only Interest la the prisoners Is to make money out of them, thoy are not worth tho epaoo required for refutation. Mr. Bass knows that tho reason why tho wagon has not been Bent for blm is bocauBe It la worn out and not worth repairing1, aud when tbo commissioners were about to have ouo ono built ho went to them in person and told them not to one, as It wob not neodod. Mr.

Bass says 1 am a oandldato for reappointment for four years from January 1. 1882, yet ho nover hoar me Bay I was, nor can ho oi any other porson point to a single effort made by mo or at my suggestion in that dlreotlon. Tho position camo to me unsought, and if I am to rooialu, it will be by roasou of my record, and not by any political influonoo that will bo Drought to beai in my behalf. MB. DABS AND CORPORAL PUNISHMENT.

Mr, Bass spoaks of the wardono who preceded me as being gentlemen, and yet In tho testimony he gave before committoe of the Board of Supervisors, who were investigating chargos made ogalnBt Mr. Buevltu for flogging prisoners, the roverond gontloman etatod that undor Mr. MoNoely "It was more a plaoo of punishment, while now It bas got to be a place of reform." It was on that ocoasion that Mr. Bass lnforraod the committoe that bo told Mr. Shevlln "that wero bo James Shevlln he would make Burns work or bo would oowbldo him." (Soe minutes of 1875.

peios 030 and 638) and from what I can loaru his advi vas actod upon in Burns' case, in tho most brutal uiu. icr. For tho first timo slnco Mr, Baea has boon ohapbu'i of tho Penitontiary his volco Is ralsod agalust the punishment of a prisoner.

The opinion of the older and wiser beads was that was in poor taste and showed a laok of political sagacity on tho part of whoever was responsible for it. NINETEENTH WARD DEMOOBATS.

Resolutions woro adopted Indorsing the State, oltyt oounty and assembly tlckots, Colonel Lansing made au ablo address and was mnoh 8PJustlcedKonno epoko on municipal affairs principally. He eald tho llconso law was passed by a Republican Legislature and approved by a Repnblloan Governor and was really a Eopublican measure. Hon Charlos L. Lyon was tho last speaker.

He said tho issue wao whether the Republican party In this city and county Bhould rulo for fifteen years to oonie or the Democratic majority should control tho olty's affairs. It the Republicans wore suooossf ul he thought it would throw tbe Btata into tno nanus or mat party noxt year, ana tne rrosiaeaay oi ma unuoa States three years hence. Demoorata should consider well boforo they voted for any perBon but 5 Domoorat this year. Mr. Howell had mads an excellent Mayor, but the Republican Legislature crippled his offorts at retozm as mucn as pobbidio Dy giving me appointing power to the Controller and Auditor.

Tho License law was the work of a Republican Legislature. Speaking of the looal oandldates other than Mayor, he eald that Colonel Stegman was a good man, but Frank White was one of nature's noblemen, a genial manly man, who had uover been a candidate for office bofore, and who deserved the vote of every Domoorat In tho county. Ho spoke warmly of Mr. Baldwin's candldaoy for Assembly In the Ninth District. Thoy had beon troubled with a representative for the past two yoars who had flopped from ono aide to the othor.

If they elooted Baldwin they would know where to find him. The meeting then adjourned. NINTU WARD SUPERVISOR. Btlward C. Blurpuy Renominated Last Evonlncr.

Strauss urged all good Democrats to unite to olect tho ticket and especially applaudod the anticipated action of tho Independent Democrats In supporting tho regular nominees of their party. Hon. Daniel Bradley followed In the same strain, showing the necosBlty of union and earnest work, and encouraging all by tho consideration that tho election of a Domocratic Mayor this Fall would be a severer blow to tho Republican party than It hod ever received in thiB county. Tho mooting dispersed with cheers for the candidates. CHEWING A MAN'S EAR.

The Charge on uhlch John Beurer was Arraigned Before Justice Bergen this Itlornintr. Miohael Macelroy, aged 30, of Union street, appeared before Justlco Borgon this morning In a caso of mayhem. He charged a man namod John Beurer with biting his ear ou tbe corner or Bond and UDion stroots on the 25th of laBt month.

Justlco Borgon reserved his decision until to morrow morning. THE GATES AVENUE SAFE ROBBERY.

Detective Elolley has a Suspicion, tt orki it Out, aud Catches a Prsloncr Whom he Has Long Sought, Several months ago Edward Irwin a young clerk in tho employ of William Young, tho butcher, at 321 Gates avonuo, who night before last had his ahop broken open and about seven hundred dollars taken from his safo, suddenly left the servico of his employer. Shortly after, it was found upon presenting bills to different pooplo for provisions, that Irwlu had been tbero and obtained the money. It isjuow estimated that over $175 was thus scoured by him. Mr. Young Immediately went before Justice Fisher and seenrod a warrant for Irwin's arrest, charging him with embezzling $235.

ThlB warrant ras placed lu tho hands of Detoctlvo Kolley, of the Ninth Bub Precinct, who, aftor patient search, obtained a clno to Irwin's wheroabouts. He followed him to Troy, but thoro lost him. When Mr. Young's safo was broken opon it occurred to tho detective that Irwin, who had a thorough knowledge of tne promises, might havo returned to this city and been oue of tho parties who committed the depredation. He informed Captain McLaughlin of his suspicion, and tho captain detailed Officer Bovendam to aid tho officer in scouring tho city, Aftor a long search tho theory of tho detective was at least partially proven, for thoy sncceadod In arresting Irwin in Flushing avenuo, near tho old distillery, ThlB morning Irwin was brought beforo Justice Fisher to answer the charge of oiubozzlemont.

He rofusod at first to make any ploa, saying bo know nothing of court practices, and could not afford to engago a lawyer. As tho detective desired time to work up evidence In tho safo caso, tho magistrate advised him to plead not guilty, and to find a lawyer to conduot his caso. Tho aoeused accepted the advice, and tho case was adjourned. ST. CHARLES UORKOJIEO'S PAIR.

Suoh a condition of affairs is altogether anomolone in the history of a ward which baa usualjy bad at least four strong candidates in the field for aldormanlo honors, Tbe faot of the lucomlng mayor having solo control of tbe appointment of heads of departments has had much to do with tbo presont condition of things.

None of the other banks of the olty are seriously involved with tbo Mechanics', and will not be affected.

L. Mitoholl, James Norton and J. B. Wass with about half a dozen othor gentlemen familiar as temperance advocates, but who organized some weeks ago for tho purposes of this campaign as a Citizens' Committee, met last evening aud lndorsod Mr, Low for tho Mayoralty. The association, it will be remembered, Indorsed General Slocum.

This now aotlon had to be taken in view of tho general's withdrawal. Mr. Mitcholl, the secretary, eald that Mr. Wass, the president, bad spoken with Qoneral Blocum, who had recommended tho ndorsement of Mr. Low.

The following preamble and resolutions wero thon adoptod Whereas, The forced retirement of Goneral Slooum from tho municipal campaign for Mayor, by reason of political Intrigue, that we approve of the recommendation of our lato candidate that the People's party indorse SBth Low for Mayor of tho City of Brooklyn and, Whereas, Tho platform of the Peoplo's party pormlts the Indorsement of any candldute or tbo nomination of a now oue, If no proper porson is nominated who eould be indorsed therefore, Reaolved, That we unanimously indorse the nomination of Setb Low for Mayor, and that wo uso all possl. ble effort to socure his election, bolloviug that Mr. Low Is eminently woll fitted to do juatico to tho citizens of Brooklyn as lis able magistrate. Ponding tho consideration of the resolutions, Mr. Wass Bald thoy met his hearty approval.

General Slocnm waa a man of charactor and reputation, and although be was nntrammeled lu his aotlon this party had full confidence tn his integrity. Mr. Low would undoubtedly make a most excellent Mayor for this city. His character warrantB our full coufldouco iu his ability and determination to do justly to all Interests In the city. Mr.

Low has not been pledged to do anything for any elasB if elected. For this determination we feel confidence in indorsing him and supporting him for election. Mr. Morton said that tho society and come of its membera had been misrepresented before tho pooplo. They wore not a temperance society In the total abstinence sense of that word.

They had adoptod a totally nou partisan platform, containing principles which, 11 adhored to In the government of the city, would inura to the oity's Interest, and that wsb all these waB of it. After somo further romarks to tho same effect by Messrs. W. D. Murphy, the meeting adjourned.

This morning Messrs. Wass, Morton and Mitchcl waited on Mr. Low at tho Republican headquarters and opprized him of tbo action taken. Mr. Low in response returned tils thanks to tho so.

cioty and Bald that ho occupied tbo samo position lu this canvass which General Slooum Bald ho did a couple of years sro in favor of good gorornmout, opposed to ring and boss rule. He thought any candidate not lit for support who occupied any different position. After a baud shake tho committee retired, giving plaoo to a commltteo of colorod citizens who wero awaiting an interview. INDORSED.

It was all bustle and work and talk about Democratic headquarters, in rt'llloughby street, to day. Tho rooms wore crowded by workors aud mossongora from the various wards, aud tho approaahos to tbo building woro also throngod by party politicians, who woro eagorly discussing the situation.

An old timer aold that there had been no suoh oomploto local canvass made since the last timo Boa McLaughlin ran for Register. Among tho loading men In charge of tho canvass at headquarters are Register Carroll, a Maaaov. William A. Furay, E. A.

Kollmyen John B. Moyonborg, ooually woll known. Justice Kenna ana otuere Thoy announced this morn lug that tho reuorts from different sootions ol the city indlcatod that Mayor Howell was bsooming stronger and Btronger among tho voters. Tho enthu elasm was something remarkable. Arrangements were being oompletad at headquarters for a grand ratification mass meeting to be hold at tho Academy of on Friday night.

Among tho politicians on the ontsldo thora waa more or less talk about the position of Jofforsou Hall and tho proposed Indorsement by the regulars of Its oandldato for Supervisor at Large, Mr.

Lauor. It waa generally beliovod that General Blooum would withdraw. The meeting of tho Contral Association to night was looked forward to with tho deepest interest, and some of tho pollticiaus oxprosaod the opinion that Mayor Howoll would be indorsed. Others predicted that Mr. Low would bo Indorsed, and othors still assorted that whatever Jefferson Hall might do the bulk of its mombora and those who sympathized with tho movement would uot support Mayor now ell.

As to tho withdrawal of Mr. Dillmeior, the regular nomiuoo for Supervisor at Large, and tho union upou Mr. Lauer, thero was a diversity of opinion, but the gonoral impression among the Regulars seemed to bo that nothing would come of tho proposition. Ono near friend of MoLaughlln said that wbllo tho loaders generally would be lnollncd to have Mr. Dlllmoler with draw and Mr.

Lauer substituted, woro It not for tho fact that upward of thirty thousand ballots bearing Mr. Dillmelor's name had already boon distributed through ho city, and to make a ohange in candidatos at this lato day, would endanger the chances of success which were now so bright. If the proposition should be rejected It would be on that ground alone Perhaps the best Indication that Mr. Dillmeior will not bo withdrawn was furnished In the faot that orders woro givon at headquarters to havo tho Initial lotter A. of hi? middle name placed on tho banner on Fnlton Btreot, near Myrtlo avonuo.

The maker of tho bannor announced John Dillmeior as the oandldato for Supor visor at Largo, wheroas tho name should havo beon John A. Dillmeior. Tho correction mado ot this lato day would seem to show that tho candidate will remain in tho hold, aaldo from any other Indications in that dl. roctiou. MAYOIi HOWELL BEMONSTBATES WITH ES MAYOB BOOTH.

There was eomo stir created among tho politicians by tho report of an unpleasant mooting between Mayor Howoll and ex Mayor Samuel Booth. It waB said that Mr. Booth, having ocoasion to visit tho Mayor's offloo yesterday afternoon, was taken to task by Mr. Howoll for baviug made certain statemeute about tho city debt. at the Rink meeting on Saturday night, which state ments were pronounced falBO by tho Mayor.

It was further said that Mr. Howell's language and manner toward the ox maror vere regarded by tbo latter aB insulting, and he quickly left tho oflice. Mr. Booth was quostioneJ. by an Eagle, reporter as to tho luter viow.

Ho roIUBed to give nis vorsion oi 11, or, in fact, to Bpeak of It at all. All that ho proposed to eay on the subject, he should Bay to the public in tbe mcolings at which ho should apeak. Mayor Howell, whon questioned, said ho had told Mr. Booth that the latter should not misrepresent him and tho city. Mr.

Booth had publicly Bald that tho debt of the city had Increased a inilllon dolJarjr during hie (Howell's) administrations, whiob was not correct, as Mr. Booth well know. The figures showed that the statement was not true, aud the Controller would soon furnish a Btatemont to that effect. The City of Brooklyn had been undor a cloud long onough, and it was about time that the misrepresentations should cease. Mr.

Howell said he could take care of himself, and that ho wanted the city's condition to bo represented aright or not at all. The Mayor was asked if he had had any troubio with Mr. Booth, and ho replied that ho bad not. Nevertheless gossips on tho outside declared that the mooting was a very stormy one, and Mr. Booth'B roluctauce to speak about it to tho roporters was construed as evldenoe that it was not altogether pleasant.

Mr. Howell Is an earnest, outspoken man, and possibly his manner offonaod Mr. Boctb, who is of a firm, but rather retiring disposition. Tho public will, probably, soon hea from him on tho Btump. Ho IB a warm advocate of Mr.

Low, and Is devoting all his sparo time to work la that gentleman's behalf, THE SHRIEVALTY. CONTEST. The contest for Sheriff between Francis H. White, Democrat, and Lewis R. Stegman, Republican, is a qulot, but nono tho leBa vigorous ono.

Both men are at work night and day. Both are very popular, and each candidate and his friends aro confident of BucoBss. Th6 canvass for sheriff 1b different from that for almost any othor office. It Is generally ly for tho most oxpensivo. Tho office is one of Ilttlo benefit to anybody but the holder of it, thero being comparatively no importance attachod to it.

It Is tbo most lucrative office In the county, and the man who runs for it is expeotod to pnt up very liberally among tho boys during tho canvass. At present, the Indications aro that Mr. Whito will be tho nomineo, although Stegcman is giving him a hot raco. Mr, White i well known throughout tho county, and thsro ar many to givo him ft helinng hand who would take no Interest In tho canvass were any othor candidato in tho field. It la noticeable that while there is much Democratic discussion over tho Mayoralty, Frank White has a solid support.

NOTICK TO ELECTION OFFIOEBS. Tbo Board of Elections will keep their office open to morrow until 9 P. In order that thoso poll olerks, inspectors and canvassers who havo not yot sworn in may have an opportunity to qualify, GENERAL SLOOUM's WITHDRAWAL. Mr. William Marshall, chairman of the Contral Democratic Association, said this aftornoon that he had ro celvod a letter from General Blocum, withdrawing from he contest for Mayor, and that ho should prosont it to tho association to night.

Thero is a prospect of a llvoly and interesting aldor manlc contest in tho Sixth Word. Thero appears to bo a revolt In the ward against tho management of Dunne and Kane on tho part of Doraocrats who havo hlthorto submitted to their leadership. Patrlok Keonan has taken tho field as a candidato for tbo aldermanship against Kano and as the nomineo of tho Independents, not tho Jefforsonlans, but tho moro rocent opponents of tho rognlar rule. As the ltopubllcans havo not the remotest ohauoe of carrying tho ward Mr. Keonan's friends oipoct them to endorse him, in which event thoy aro confident that ho can win, for, bolng an old Sixth warder, a considerable tax payor and woll acquainted with tho pooplo, he has a formidable body of supporters.
