Tho argumont on the injunction restraining Mayor Gloason, Alderman Kraussman and Com misBioncrB Harrigan and Jamos Greer, who constitute the board of wator comtnissioa ers of Leng Island City, from having any city work dono oxeept by a contractor and restraining tho city treasurer from paying laborers $2 a day, which waa to have been made to day before Judgo Bartlett, waB postponed until September 1, on tho stipulation of Corporation Counsel Foster that no work would bo dono until tho cake was decided. The injunction was granted by Judge Bartlett on Saturday on tbe application of Dr. Herbert G.

Lyttlo, It was asked for bocause the board of aldermen of Long Island City has votod to lay 11,000 feot of water main by day's work. Mayor Gleaeon suggested the plan, evidently with a view to its effect on tho next olection. The city charter, however, provides that no work which would amount to more than $100 oan be done excopt by contract. Dr. Lyttle alleges that the mon employed on the works wore placed so closo together that thoy interforod with each other.

Ho sayB that tho course adopted is detrimental to tho taxpayers and to tho workingraon aB well. POLICES AN MAUDE LOCKED DP. Ho Interfered Willi an Arrest Made by Officer Kerlnhor. Patrolman John Maud? is attached to the First preciuct. Ho is one of the civil service men and has only been on the force bIiico February iaat, Blnce that time, however, he has managed to satisfy his colleagues on the foroo that he has very peculiar ideas of police duty.

Yesterday afternoon he outdid all previous records, and as a rosnlt ho will havo to stand trial In tho Butler Btreet court on a charge of assaulting an officer in the discharge of his duty, and will go before Commissioner Haydon for gross breaohof discipline. Iu the meantime he is Busponded from dnty. YcBlerday afternoon, about 4 o'clock, Officer Michael Koylahor of the Fifteenth preeinot arrested a young man named John Leonard of 00 Columbia placo for lounging on Atlantic avennoj. near tho South ferry. Two or three officers on that beat have notified Leonard to ceaso loafing around tho avenues, but yesterday, when the latter refused to move when Officer Keylaher ordered him to do so the policeman placed him under arrest.

Officer Maude, who is only 24 years old, lives at 180 Atlantio avenue. He was off duty and in citizen's clothes yesterday. He saw Keylaher arrojt Leopard and, as Leonard is a friend of Maude thought ho would interfere. In fact, ho got indignant and ordered Keylaher to let Leonard go. "Who aro you, to give me ordcrsf I know my duty," said Keylaher.

"I'm an officer just as good as yon are," said Maudo, excitedly, aB he displayed hia shield, "and I say that arrest ia an ontrage. I'll prevent it." "You had hotter not try," was Keylahor's quiet response, "if you know your dnty as an officer of Charlie Nolsou of 39 Borgen street, this city, who was employed as an errand bey for the firm. Charlie said that scarcely three minutes before the oollapso af tho building Mr. MacDonald had sont him out on an errand. Tbe partners wore then together, standing in their working clotheB near tho office desk, preparing to pay off the hands.

Tho boy asked Mr. MacDonald's permission to allow tho other errand boy, who was known to htm only as Richard, to go with him, aud his employer good natnredly said: "All right, Charlie; take Richard with you." Tho boys wont out together and, according to young Nelson's story, when they loft the shop all the operatives were at work. Ther had not changed their shop clothing. When tho boys reached tho street corner the building fell with a crash. Charlio was thoroughly Beared aud ran straight home as ho was.

According to his statement tho partners must have beon together when tho crash camo and Mr. MacDonald's rieuda hope to recover his remains this afternoon or this evening. It has come to the knowledge of tho friondo and relatives of Mr. MacDonald that some stranger has beon at the morgue representing himself to bo nephew of tho dead man. Mr.

MacDonald's watch, chain and bankbook have been recovered with his Test, and there is just a possibility that this Imposter expects to profit by his utory. This person represents Mr. MacDonald as having been a native of Ireland, while as a matter of fact, ho was a native of Edinburgh. Tho impostor also lays claim to relationship with a William I. MacDonald, the name erroneously published in some of the New York papers.

Mr. McDonald had no middle initial. Hifl only nophuw in this country at present is Duncan MacDonald, a son of a brother who keeps a hotel in Edinburgh. Duacan is a boy oightoen aud does not in any way resemble the impostor, who Is tail and considerably older. Tho Burns club of tho Twenty sixth ward will met to night to take suitable action in tho case of their miseing member.

Miss Nora Redden, the sister of Mary Redden, the forewoman iu Ellis MacDonald's bindery, remained at tne New York morgue all day to day and could not be seen at her residence, 105 Clermont avenue. Sho received no tidinga of her missing sister, but she Is confident that ahe will be able to recognize Mary's body no matter what its condition may be. She believes that her sister's watch will be found between her corset and lior bosom, whore, as stated yestorday, the girl was iu the habit of carrying it to protect It from damage while sho was at ONE GOOD TURN.

TIiomoH Larltiii'K Unexplained Action on a Platform Station. Thomas Larkiu, a workingman, was instantly killed laBt night at the Twentieth Btreot station on the Fifth avenue branoh of tho elevated road. Larkiu lived at 335 Eighteenth stroet. In oom panywith John Molosky of 187 Twonty oighth streot, Larkin started to go down town. Whon the train arrived at the station Molosky got on it, but for some reason, unexplained, Larkin did not board it.

As the train was starting Molosky turned to look for his friend and saw him running to get on tho car. The gates had boen closed, but Larkin grabbed one of them and, hanging on, tried to open it. In this position he got his clothing caught and when he tried to let go ho couldn't. He was carried just beyond the end of tho platform and then ho fell to the streot, a distance of thirty foet. Ho was killed inBtantly.

The onlire incident did not occupy a quarter of a minute. Molosky says the conductor was not to blame and cannot explain why Larkin did not get on the train whon he had plenty of time Coroner Rooney gave a permit for tne romoral of tho body to Larkin'a rod.lonoo and will hold an inquest. Conduotor Fitzpatrick and Molesky have boen summoned as witnesses. Tho decoasod wa a widower, 45 years old, and loaves Ave children who are not provided for. Conductor Fitzpatrick gives the following as hiB version "Larkin was in the company of two or three men.

The train stopped at tho station and I atartod to pull tho bell when Larkin rushed down tha aisle "Lt mo ont, let me iBaid: 'You're too late'. Ho aaid: 'No, I'm if I iRlammed the gate, as tho car was iu motion. Larkin grabbed hold of the rod ou whioh the gate catches and which oxtends to the roof, and attempted to swing himself over tho gate on to the platform. His head struck tho roof of the car and before I could oatch him he was botween the car aud the ticket office and dragged along to tho end when ho fell into the street landing on Mb head." Some friends of Mr. Larkiu who witnessed the acoident called at his late home this morning and told hia daughter thatherfather'sBleere had baon caught in the gate whon Conductor Fitzpatrick closed it, and in this way ho had beon dragged along between tho car and station and then dropped into the street.

Larkln's daughter said that hor father, who was a widowor, was a cautious man and would have gone further along rather than havo attempted to jump. J0H5 H0W1.AND IMSTAXTI.T KILhKD. Yoxkers, N. August 25. John Howland, a wealthy hat manufacturer, aged 0 yoars, fell from a window of his hat factory this morning an.l, striking on tho stones below, was instantly killed.

SENT BACK. Russian Hebrews Who Are Not Wanted Here. They ArriTed oh tha TJaion Haintmrjr Steamihip Marsala, Xotr at Atl.iatic llns'n, and Aro Dostitnle A Hard Fate in Stern for Them. When the Union Hamburg lino Btoamship Marsala, from Hamburg, arrived at her dock, North Central pier, Atlantio baam, on last Friday morning, nhe had ou board a cargo of merchan diaeandSOO stoerago passengers, consigned to Fundi, Edye A Co. Sho has about one hundred of them on hoard still, as the boarding officers of the immigration office refused to permit them to land.

They aro almost entirely Russian Hebrews, who have beon driven into exile, aud last ovonmg the after deck of tho Marsala was crowded with tho unfortunates, who gazod ashore as longingly as did their forefathers toward the Promised land. As well as could be seen they wero poorly clad, and the number seemed to exceed that stated, as the after dock was crowded with men, womon and children. Tho captain complained bitterly that some of thoso who had been rejected were not allowed to reach their destination, several having ho statod, tickets to Chicago, bt. Louis, and other points wost. Ho seomod to think they should be allowed to roach thoir destination before being rejected, whon thoy would be as hard to he found as the proverbial needle ill the haystack.

They are in chargo of custom house inspectors who will bo held rigidly accountable for their being on the ship until sho leavoB the pier, but there is no supervision whatever after that. There is nothing in life to prevent the captain of the Marsala, should he see fit, from putting his passengers ashore in boats in Jamaica Bay, or any other point higher up alon? tho Long Island coast. If the government is raally in earnest In sending these people back it can only be dono by tho oustom house officers on board until the pilot leaves, and let them go with him; anything loss than this Is useless. In the meantime the unfortunate people aro in a fearful predicament; they were driven from their own country: injected hero, and not wanted in any conntry in Europe. What aro they to do? Look whore they will starvation faces them.

Sensational newspapers that pictured him aB a leper and tho aotiou of the health authorities wero too much for him. He has sold out and says he is going back to China. Atanyrato he has loft the city.

It waa supposed that ho waa afflicted with lop roBy, and when Health Commissioner Griffiu ordered all his sanitary inspectors to examine all tho Chinamen in the city, Wing Lee became an object of special attention bocauso his face was covered with sores. This morning Dr. Bnlwinkle reported to tho health department that Wing Leo had sold out and loft the city. "All that troubled Wing Lee," said Dr. Baker, "was the disease known as acuo rosacea, which is a facial eruption.

There are several kinds of acue, papular, pupular, vasicular and otliors. Thoy distress tho patient as well as disfigure him, but they are not contagious at alL" "How about tlie reports ou lepers from tho inspectors, have any boon "Not a single one, there are none in Brooklyn and if there had besii they would have left as soon as they heard the inspectors were after them."

forty one Victims of tlio Dlnastor Rcot ered Six Bodiai Taken Out This Jlorn iiiff, Only Two of Whlc'iWero Idcntiflad. Brooklyn Famine. Mourning for Their Dead. Tho list of bodies rocovorod from the Park placo disaster in New York now number forty one. Tho forty lirsl, taken out at 1 1 o'clock, wa that of Wiliiam II.

Ellin of 228 Hurt street, in this city. No body had been found for nearly two hours when that which proved to bo Mr. Ellis was seen. Tho ruins had been dug out a conaiderablo depth below lovel of the side walk, and tha workmen had reached a point where they roust remove one of the heavy presses and a part of another bsforo the basement could bo searched. Tbit removal, with block and tackle and thirty or mre men pullinzon the rosea, was a low process, taking an hour and a half.

When it was done word came out from tho ruins that another body had been seen. Presently ono of tho unpaiuted coffins was carried down and in a few minutes more raised by four mon and borne carefully to tho sidewalk for examination by the deputy coroner, Dr. Donlin. The body was more disfigured than almost any taken out aad it seemed an if the task of idouti oaiion must be hopeless. It lay face down in tho cofliu, the flash was burned from the and these charred; only one arm and the skeletou of tho head remainod.

A part of the trousers was left, however, and from these tho coroner pulled off the pocketcontaining a few pennies and koys and a purso. The purse was water Eoaked and charred until it fell to pieces in layers. It did not seem likely that anything in this pnrse could servo purposes of identification, hut as tho layers foil apart a folded paper waH picked out. It proved when opened to be a porfeolly legible receipted tailor's bill to S. Eilis." There wan no other Ellis missing In tho building than W.

H. Ellis and the probability that this was a tailor's mistako of initials was soon confirmed by finding deposit slips in a Broadway hank with the name cerrect ly written. Four $5 bills woro also found in tho purso. The watch by which it was hoped to identify Mr. Ellis was not found, nor was tho diamond ring which he wore upiin his right hand.

The hand was still attached to tho body, bnt so oliarrod that the ring may havo fallen away. There seonis to bo no reason far doubting tho identity, and Mr. Prieo, Mr. Eilis' uncle, who has been waiting two days for the remains, was convinced that he had found his nephew. Two other bodies had been found since midnight before that of Ellis was reaohed.

Of theso only one was identified, that of F. V. Tripp, tho druggist. It was found at 0:15 in Tripp' own collar, and the. clothing was nearly intact.

Tripp's watch with his monogram was found in tho pocket, his silk handkerchief had his namo in full, F. W. Tripp; the tab of the Bhirt had his initials; there was a diamond ring on a finger and $84 in bills and some small change in the pockets. Tripp was 45 years old and leaves a wife and three sous. Ho was wealthy, owned a lame houao at 128 West Seronty flrBt stroet, New York, and a handsome summer plaoo at Boa bright, N.

J. The body mj taken in chargo by a New York undertaker who was waiting for it, and removed. The four other bodies removed to day were not identified. No. found at 1:30 this morning, was of a man about 35 years oid, weighing 800 pounds and 5 feot 10 inohes high.

In his pocket was a pearl handled knife and there was a rod and white napkin abont his clothes, an if ho had been eating in Petersen's restaurant. No. 37 was seen at 3:43, but was not reached until 0 o'clock. It was that of a man 5 feet 7 inches high, about 3 0 years old, and having the romains of a sandy mustache ou his faco. There was a plain gold wedding ring on his finger, and ho wore a bluo checked lumper.

No. 38 was found at 6:30, a man 5 feet 8 inches high, weighing abont 180 pounds, and wearing a white linen shirt, Tho body had beon cut opon. No. 39, found at 8:30, waB a boy or young man 5 foot 0 inches high and weighing about 135 pounds. One arlu was gno and one leg badly crushed.

Ho wore bluo over nil Thore aro indications that the soarchors will Boon reach Petersen's restaurant, where many bodies are expected to be found. Petersen's cash drawer has been found, charred, but with 15.00 in coin and eight or ten live cockroaches in it. The boat doesn't seom to have troubled them at all. Peterson's excise license, issued by Mayor Cirace, has also boen found, a package of chocks of Ellis McDonald of tho year 1881 on tho Nassau bank, an old time book of Young, Kulaml A Co. and a lot of looso ohango amounting to fG.27.

The bodies of four girls, working iu Itosenfeld's cigar store, were found last evening not much burned and also identified. They wero Jennie Flowor, Lizzio Dowd, Maggie Quiiin and Mary Williams, all New York working girls. Considerable progress has boen made in clearing up the ruins, but there is debris enough remaining to occupy at least a day or two longer. Disinfectants are freely used, but if the present heat continues tho work promises to boeome un whnluaomo as well as difficult. Tha Italians employed at first have been supplemented by a gang of longshoremen and progress is now mora rapid.

There is a great pile of debris in the street along the entire front of tho wrecked building eight to ten feot high. Enough bricks have been removed to show that there is a great wall of Blanting beams extending from the rear wall of tho building out toward tha editor of the basement. It Is posiblo that under tho protection of this roof tho bodies of those In the back of tho building maybe found not much disfigured. It is expected, however, that tho greater number will be found iu the basement restaurant, which will be reached to night or to morrow.

Ellis of tho linn of Ellis MacDonahl, as indicated elsewhere, was made at 1 1 o'clock to day. The body did not reach the morgue until about 12:30 P.

when it was brought in in the plain pine coffin marked "38 W. II. Ellis." A number of the friends and relatives of his unlucky partner, William Mr.cDonald, at onco crowded around the rough casket and witii intonso curiosity at the remains. They had been waiting patiently at the morgue siuco Saturday night aud this was the first intimation they had received that anything had been heard from the ill fated Brooklyn firm. A neighbor of Mr.

MacDonald, Mr. Rome, r.nxioua that tho identification of tha body of Ilia partner should be more complete, remo'vod a piece of the waistband of tho trousers and, taking it to the Hink in tho raorsuo office, carefully washed it out. The pattern had beeu burned out by the flames, but thoro remained on tho fragment two buttons wlnoh bore the name of Mr. E.lis's Brooklyn tailor, H. Oia rel of Broadway.

This remnant of the tro users will be sent to Mr. GiBacI. who may strengthen tho identification of any additional evidence is ueopssary. But, as stated elsewhere, the identification by William E. Price of 4, sal Broadway, the uncle of Mr.

Ellis was most complete. Mr. Ellis was 40 years old and unmarried. Ho lived with his astod mother aud three unmarried sistorB at 228 Hart streot, in a houso which he recently purchased as a home for Mrs. Ellis.

The deceased was a native of this country, andlivcd for many yoars in Greenpoiut, whore he was well known. His sole caro soomed to be his mother and his sisters, and his death falls as a heavy blow upon them. Mrs. Ellis Is nearly 80 years of ago and Is in foeblo health. It Is feared that tho death of htr eldest and favorite sou will hasten her end.

Thero is another son, Edward, who is at present hastening homo from Little Hock, whore he has been in business. Mr. Eilis onjoyed the reputation of being one of the best operative finishers in the bookbinding business in Now Yofk. Before tho firm of which he was tha head was organizod he worked with his later partners, George Young and William MacDonald, in Patterson's bindery, in Itoso street, New York. As previously stated in tho Eaole, the three mon named started business sixteen or seventeen years ago in Bookman street and were remarkably successful.

Mr. Young loft tho firm after a while aud Ellis MacDonald moved into tho unlucky building in Park placo. Mr. Ellis was careful with the money ho had mado and was engaged iu somewhat extensive real estate transactions in the district known as Brownsville, iu the Twonty sixth ward. The real estate transfer record of the Eaole only a few days ago oontaincJ a minute of tho sale of ono of his houses out thero.

The arrangements have not as yet boen mado for the funeral of Mr. Ellis. Up to tho hour tho reporter loft tho ruins today nothing bad been heard of tho partner of M'r. Eilis, Mr! William MaoDonalii 6 158 Chester street, nor of any of tha operatives of tho firm. The men were close friends and Mr, MacDonald'i relatiTos have had strong hopes that tho bodies would bo found together.

Republican polities in the Seventh ward is at fever heal. Rowb between individual inemborB of tho different factiona are of daily occurrooce, and last night, at a meeting of the Tippecanoe club, called for tho purpose of indorsing the president of the olub, Lawrenoe McAlpin, for supervisor, tho police had to be called in to quell the disturbance caused by the effort of ono faction in the club to drive the othor out of tha meeting hall. Ever Bince the Invincible independent club or the Seventh ward dropped the name Republican from its title and indorsed James W. Birkctt for senator and Lawrence McAlpin, the president of the Tippecanoe club, for supervisor, there have been two bitter factions in the latter organization, one headed by James Fay, a powerful yonuc Irishman employed by the Empire wareho so company, and the other headed by Thomas Foley, who works at tho navy yard. Fay and his followers aro highly indignant at McAlpin for accepting an indorsement from a rival club, and are determined, if possible, to prevent his receiving tho support of the Tippecauoe olub.

Foley and his friends favor McAlpiu, and desire to get all the indorsement thoy can for hitn. On Monday President McAlpin sent out 150 cards to the members of tho Tippecanoe club, inviting them to be present at a special meeting of the club, to be held last night at 472 Myrtle avenue. The call is claimed to have been irregular by the Fay contingent, and thoy went to the meeting ready to protest against tho aotiou of the president. After the roll call Fuy not tho floor and began to malie a bitter Bpeoch aeainst tho president for calling together the club for the purpose of getting himself indorsed. Fay's speech was interrupted by Jeers and cat calls bofore he had said tt half dozen words, and the confusion became bo great that the president could not make him elf heard.

During the racket Fay called upon hia followers to leave the hall with him. A largo number got up and moved toward the door. Among the number was Secretary Thompson, who grabbed up the books and Btartad to make his exit with them, but ho was stopped before he had gone three feot from the platform by President McAlpin, who ordered him to drop the books, informing him that he could get out himself if he so desired, but that the books belonged to the association. Tho dispute over the possession of the books precipitated a general row. Blows were struck and the racket became so great that Landlord Jager, who owns the building where the meeting was held, rushed off to the Fourth precinct and brought back a couple of policomon with him to preserve order.

Tho presence of the blue coats had a soothing effect upon the belligerents, and Fay and Mis friends wero permitted to leave the hall quietly. They adjourned, how over, to the sidewalk, where hostilities were resumed. After tho Fay crowd had gone, tho other faction passed resolutions indorsing the president, Lawrence McAlpin, for supervisor, and also solected the committee to make up a ticket for tho primary. Quito a liumbjt' of the members of tho Tippecanoe club are employed at the navy yard. Lawrohco McAlpin and Thomas Foloy have good places in the iron plating shop.

They were both seen thero this mornius aud questioned in regard to tho row. They aro bitter iu denouncing Fay as the cause of the trouble, and say that ho camo thoro determined to creato a disturbance aud break up the meeting if possible, aud that Fay and his friends aro mad bo the Invincible club had indorsed McAlpin "I had a perfect right," said McAlpin, "to calf the meeting, even if it waB for tho purpose of in dor.inu my candidacy. Fay does not want to see me got along in politics, so he is against me. In addition to this the difference of opinion among the members of the cinb in regard to the Third district senatorship has causod a great deal of division and hard feeling. I and my frionds think if Senator James W.

Birkctt was good enough for ihe Republicans of the ward when he was nominated before, he ought to be good enough now and we aro in favor of hia reuomina tion. Tho other side aro opposed to him aud unless they give iu to us it will bo war to the knifo. The boys are determined to have mo run for su pervisor. and if I am not givon a show on the ticket they will knife tho ticket and that's all thero is about it." Fay and his friends on tho other hand ay that McAlpin aad his followors have been given money to work up a boom for Senator Birkett in the ward and that McAlpin's candidacy for supervisor is only a side show gotten np for tho pnrposo of creating a Birkett sentiment iu the ward. The Twenty first ward German Republican association also held a lively meeting last night at Ritting's hall, 247 Floyd street.

William Robb hack presided aud A. Fisohor recordod. About one hundred and fifty members of the organization were present. Mr. Kauffmann, who Is a can didato for Bupervlsor, offered a roaolution indorsing the action of the Twenty first ward assoola tion taken last Tuesday ovening at a meeting at Dolmouioo hall, when a conlmittoe was appointed to name a ticket for the coming primary; alBo indorsing the resolution offsrod at that timo by Mr.

Allabon. Aftor a spirited debate, in which the mombors of tho two factions aaid somo prettj hard things to oscli othor, Mr. Kauffmaun's resolutions were tabled, thereupon ho and four friends left the mooting place. Tho remaining ono hundred and forty five members thon unanimously passed resolutions indorsing Frederick Hauck as supervisor and Mr. Bchollback for constable of tho ward.

Thoy also passed resolutions indorsing the ticket chosen in the interest of Charles T. Dnnwell for stato committeeman, which ticket is to bo voted for at the coming primary. SUE SAYS UER HUSBAND IS CltCEL. Margaret jr. Icrry Han 'rough! Suit for Separation On motion of John A.

While in conversation with an Eaole reporter Mr. Bidgway wbb questioned concerning the mayoralty nomination with which his name is connected by bo many Democrats aud Republicans nowadays. "I am not a candidate for said he. "1 kgow there haa beon considerable talk about me. My friends of the prosa aud ip tho ranks of the party have been very kind to suggest the honor, but the fact is I am not looking for a nomination of any kind whatever." Mr.

Kidgway's attention was called to the visit receatiy made to Brooklyn by Recorder Hessberg of Albany in the interest of Billion Kosendale for attorney general, and to the statement that Mr. Hessberg and other friendB of Mr. KoBendale wero under tho impression that Kings county was not bo earnest and Bincevo in its support of Chapin, but it would be satisfied with tha nomination of Mr. Eidgwaly for attorney general. "I cannot couooive," ropliod tho district attorney, "how Mr.

Hessberg or anybody olse could arrive at any Btioh conclusion. Tho fact that Mr. Hessborg oanie down hero to ask the support of Kings county for Mr. Rosendalo would allow that ho did not believe these statements. What would bo the use of his coming here if Kings county was not sincere in its support of Chapin Mr.

Ridgway was questioned about Mayor Chapin candidacy. Said ho: "The Democratic party will make a great mistake if it doea not nominate Mr. Chapin for governor. He is one of the ablest men who ever held public office, and has bo often demonstrated his strength before the people that thero would be no doubt whatever as to his election. He would make an admirable governor." Mr.

Ridgway has been suffering from sciatica, bnt is rapidly recovering. His presence in tho court house became generally known thereabouts and many political and personal friends dropped in to see him. The boys aro enthusiastic in their advocacy of Mr. Ridgway for mayor and scores of Republicans hare written letters pledging him support in the event of his nomination. As to the attorney generalship thoro is reason to believe that he would be nomtuated on the first ballot ir he should say in advance that he would accept.

Intimations have been made that the convention may nomlnato him without Kings county. It is an open question whether the local leaders would advise an acceptance under the Poculiar circumstances of the situation. They havo given it out that it is Chapin or nothing.

August 25 Heated in an old fashiouod arm chair on the verandah of his handaoma residence in Bates place, that veierau soldier and irrepressible Democrat, Lientenant Governor id ward 1. Joues, conversed genially with your correspond ent to day about tho Democratic nomination for governor. I say that he talked genlilly be cause such ii tho fact and for tho reason that he haa boen represented as indulging in hoatod speech when Questioned concerning his pros pects of securing tho coveted nomination. Wuat he had to say to day was said in a matter of fact, off hand way; his manner was not that of a sorely disappointed or aggrieved man. He talked as if his political fortunes woro not at stake.

"What are you doing about your candidacy for the nomination for governor?" was tho first ques tion your correspondent put to tho lieutenant governor. "Nothing, absolutely nothing," wai tbe reply, given with tho air of a man not diBposod to bother hiB mind about anything in particular. "And why not?" "One of our county convention men came to me a few nights ago and asked mo what I pro posed to do conoorning my candidacy. I told him I didn't propose to do anything," said the lieutenant governor. "I tell you tho same thing.

I have not asked a single delegate, or any man who is lobo a delegate, to voto for mo. I have taken this position because 1 believe that Governor Hill will ooutrol the votes so far as tbe convention is concerned." Then dryly: "What he will do so far as tho votes of tho people aro concornod Is another matter. My name will not bo presented in tho convention except at the instigation of Governor Hill. As I said before, I believe that he controls tho situation, so far as the convention is concornod." "Phon you do not take any stock in the atory that Edward Murphy, Speaker Shoehan and Kos well P. Flowor have control the state organization independently of Governor Hill "Fudge I Nonsense 1" exclaimod the lieutenant governor.

Thou with a broad smile, "Have they been telling your Kings couuty peoplo that yarn 1" "YeB." The lieutenant governor smiled again, then re marked Boi'iously: "I think that if tho governor wants to nominate Mr. Flowor ho will be nomi nated; if ho doea not want Mr. Flower then Mr. Flower will not bo "Do you think Mr. Flower can he elected if nominated? The lloutenant governor leaned back in his chair and paused as if to choose his languago, then answerod deliberately: "I do not think he oan be elected." "On what do yon baBe that opinion "I do not think that tho farmers' alliance, the grangers, and the labor people of the state will vote to elect a governor wlTo is a banker, a rail road man and a representative of Wall street.

Mr. Flower is known to the farmers of tho stato as a banker whose business is dotio in Wall street." Why do you call him a railroad man "Because ho owns a great deal of. railroad stock. In tho country he ie said to have mado his millions out of railroad stocks. I have no feeling against Mr.

Flower. Iain simply telling you, a newflpaper man, facts as I have found them." "Do you think Mr. Flower ia entitled to tho nomination for governor 1" "Union! Well, I will answor that question by quoting from the letter I wrote in answer to a question from ono of Mr. Flswer'H Watortown friends: 'If tho nomination is to bo handed oyer as a reimbursement for financial services rendered, then Mr. Flower is entitled to a I am apeaking plainly and without feeling in the matter.

It has been said that I talk injudiciously. I at least endeavor to speak truthfully, and do not attempt to deceive the people." Then abruptly: "What havo tho politicians got against me "I have hoard some say you would bo a hard man to handle if mado governor," said yoar correspondent gently. "I have been Rii years in the senate chamber. Has anyone ever heard of mo standing otherwise than with my party? Have not atoo.l with my party on all occasions? I'll tell rou, mr de.tr sir, why some men are opposed to mo." aud here tho gray haired veteran laughed quietly. "It has been by theso men that I am honest, and that is a bad reputation to have among a certain clasB of men who interest themselveB in politics." What do you think of Mr.

Chapin's candidacy for the nomination for governor "I think he has no superior among candidates for the nomination in point of education, ability and fltnesB for tho office." "Do you think he Is likely to secure tho nomi nation "1 do not think that ho can a33iiro the requisite numbor of votes from the country to win the nomination. I never doubtod that Mr. McLaughlin was sincere in advocating the nomination of Mr. Chanin. I have known of Mr.

McLaughlin as a political leader for many years and hare never known him to be engaged in any nefarious schemes or of his having resortad to queBtionablo methods. I believo that when ho saj's ho is for a man he moans what ho aays, and I would rather have his word than a good many peoplo'a bonds that I know of in politics. "SuppoBe if Mr. Chapin cannot secure tho nomination that the Kings county delegation should support your candidacy for governor," suggested the correspondent. "Kings county, could win with Jones and Jones could be elected, said the lieutenant governor with emphasis.

Then ho atarted in to do a little interviewing by way of changing the subject. Said he i "I havo heard a story to the effect that the trouble between Tammany hall and tho Kings county Democracy is to b'e patched up. Is thoro any trnth in the atory "Patched up In what way?" "The story iB that Mr. Wagstaff is lo resign tho presidency of the bridge board of trustees, that a Brooklyn man is to be elootod to fill the vacancy and that Mr. Wagstaff ia to run for the state souate asainst Liaponavd Stewart.

Then Tammany and Kings aro to march hand in hand for Mr. Flower." "That would moan the selling out of Mr. Chapin, wouldn't it?" inquired your correspondent. "It would have that look, but I don't belrevo Mr. McLaughlin would bo a party to any act of treachery to Mr.

Chanin. No, no, Mr. McLaughlin is not that kind of a man." "Will your name bo presented to tho state convention by tho delegates from this oounty "I do not know what thoy will do," said tho lieutenant governor, unconcernedly. "I understand that some of my enemies havo talked of sending a contesting delegation in case my friends proposo to.preBont my name." "Havo the state grango and farmers' alliance people had anything to say about candidates for the gubernatorial nomination "They will be heard from after the nominations are made," ropliod tho lieutonant governor, significantly. In concluding the interview he said: "In dismissing this question as to who will be nominated, I want to reiterate that I am not canvassing for votes among delegates.

I am not going to make a laughing stook of mysolf by going into a convention to bo boatou with my hands tied. I know that I can be elected if nominated, aud you cannot find a republican who will deny tho statement, but I am not worrying about tho nomination." The lieutenant governor is resting on his oars, apparontly, but his farmer friends aro preparing to make a demonstration in his behalf. A well informod resident of Binghamton, in Bpeakiug of this matter, said: "Within tho present week the Binghamton lusbanduuiu, tho official organ of the state grango, will advocate tho nomination of Jones for governor. Tho grange is a non political organization, but as botween the banker, Flower, and the granger, Jouos will bo for lieutenant governor. Tho Btate will bo flooded with copies of the grange's official organ.

Last woek it said editorially: The two great polivical particB of Now York havo advertised a vendue and the nomination for governor iB to be sold to tho highest bidders. And to tho shame of tho "honest farmer" it must be admitted that manv a one of them has allowed his principles to be offset by a very small amount of hoodie. For goodness' sako, if you will sell, do try and keep up the price and make the transaction as respectable as possible from a business standpoint. Huve more pride than was exhibited at a farmers' picnlo a fow years since. Lot us relate tho circumstance.

Our old friend Jones of Binghamton had been addressing the farmers on I ho necessity of union in defenao of their rights and advocated, as he often has douo, the election of the best men, regardless oT their politics, and, in closing, offered a resolution embodying his views, which was unanimously adopted. General Jones was fol lowed by a lawyer, who was a looal political leader, who, in his speech, snapping his fingers, said! "I don't caro that for your resolution, pass Just as many as you please, for I can buy yon all at $2 apiece on election day." You expect to hear that the insult was avenged on the spot, well it was not, bis hearers grinned and some laughed, but no one hauled him from tho platform. Funny, wasn't it? Free barn American cit izons sneered at and jeeringly told in publlo that their price was "two dollars a pieoo." For God's sake, farmers, if jou have not got tho manhood to combine and assert your rights and no longer bo led by political boases who dictate for whom yon shall vote, do get up a "truat," an "alliance," or some sort of a combination and put np tho price. EBSouioof th Itepublican politicians of Bing hamtou profess to behove that the main purpose of the grange ia to Becure a higher prico for farmers' votes that tl a head, and that tho editorial quoted is to bo accepted literally as it reads. Judging from tho statements mado by several residents of Binghamton the impression prevails here that the lieutenant governor has abandoned his candidaoy.

The impression Is erroneous and will doubtless be romoved as soon as the next Issue of the official organ of the state grange is printe 1. On the 7th of noxt month the lieutenant governor will deliver an address In Troy to he representatives of a stato labor organization, and ho may ha expocted to ai'r something of unusual interest to tho advooatoa of Mr. Flowor'a nomlnatio W.

"Keylaher was proceeding on with his prisoner when Maudo apraug oh him and tried to release his grip from Leonard's collar. In the struggle Maude ripped open Keylahor's ooat, tore some ef the buttons off it and played havoo generally.

The Washington Street Commission Hands in Its Report, Darid Harriett, Hassan H. Wheeler and John H. FurroII Award $529,600 for the ocft Hctn ocn Cencord and Tillary. Tho Amount Only 15 por Coat. In Excps or tho Otisinal Offrr by the Bridffe Trustees.

The commission appointed to assosa valuations of pi opsrty on Washington Btroot, between Con cord and Tillary, to be acquire .1 for the oxioiiBion of the bridge, has just completed its labors und handed tho awards found by it as fair aud proper. The commission was composed of David Bar nett, Haan H. Wheeler aud John H. Farrell, and to their energy and olinacientious work is due the honor of being the first of tho various commissions appointed to complote thnir task. Ihe awards as handed to tho bridge attorneys aro as follows: Ownfir.

Thoso offers wero as follows: Albert Block, Brooklyn institute, Eliza It. Levison, David W. Stein, f2.5,000; Abraham II.

E. church, Bernard McCaffrey, both parcols, $51,000, and Cornelius Vanderbilt, 10,500. lo Mr. Martin, tho lessee of the Methodiat church property, the commission haB allowed $2,500 for his leasehold, that amount to be de duced, however, from the award of $130,000. The Hunt manufacturing company, now occubr iug the property of Jonnio Boynolds, have also been allowed $500 for their leasehold: but no al lowance for a similar ooject is made to tho lessees of tho property owned by Weber Thomas at 222.

The attorneys for the bridge will donbtloss ap ply to the courts for a confirmation of tho report in a few days, as it is understood to bo satisfac tory to the bridge people. In spite of tho fact that the total sum iB but a small percentage above the offers originally made, it is fair to pre sumo that the awards will be accepted without oppo sition. It iB the prevailing opinion that the commis sion has done everything in ita power to arrive at a fair valuation of the property. David Bar nett, who has knowledge of real estate values and experience in similar duties, haB worked incos santly with his culloaguos iu tho matter. Meetings have been hel I almost daily from the first of June to early in the present month, and since that time tho commission has been occupied with a careful review of all the testimony taken in tho various hearings.

The above awards are tlio result of careful, in telligent work by mon familiar with tho task and it is pretty generally believed that tho property owners and appraisers appointed by the bridge trustees will have littlo fault to find.
