AJIBSEMENTS. DR. WALBRIDGB'S DEFE.VSE. ANCIENT ORDER OF HIBERNIANS. RESTING A DAY.

THE FIGHT. THURSDAY EVEW.VG. JULY 12, 1SSS. Inactivity Among the Association Ball Players. Oaly Ono Eastern Team Hot a Western Opponent Yesterday and the Oceasion Was a Postponed GainoThe Record to Date.

Six of tho American teams had an oil day yesterday, wily ouo Eastern toam playing a Western oppouoat, tho Baltlmoros playing off a postponed game iu Kansas City, which thoy wou by 6 to 2, Cunningham pitching against Fagan. Hauklnson Is with the Kansas City toam again, ho playing at short hold. This dofoat sont Kansas City to tho tail eud, Cloveland now being seventh. The loaguo games yostorday resulted as follows: July 12 Now York vs. Indianapolis, at Indianapolis; pitohers, ICoofe, Hoaly 52 July 12 Detroit vs.

Philadelphia, at Detroit; pitchers, Baldwin. Ulouson 64 July 12 Pittsburg vs. Boston, at Pittaburg; iiitcli orA, Morris, Sotvders ij 6 July 12 ChicaKo vs. VVaahington, at Chicago; pitch ors, ICrock, O'Day 7 5 This loaves tho record as follows: Republican party more hurdensome than the Old Man of the Sea was to the unfortunate Sindbad. Brooklyn loses another old and well known citizen by tho death of Jesse C.

Sinjth. He was born more than eighty years ago and had dwelt in this city for forty one years. He touched tlio general interest at an unusual number of points at the bar, on tho bench, in tho National Guard, in legislative life, in the ohuroh. Ho was an active and successful lawyer. Ho was Surrogate of Kings County for five years.

Ho served as Adjutant of the Soventy fifth Regiment iu New York, as Colonel of the Fourteenth Regiment in this city, as General of tho Eleventh Brigade in all, thirty years of life. He was State Senator for two years. He was a vestryman of St. Ann's, the Mother of Episcopalianisin in Brooklyn, and aclivo in the promotion of the interests of the parish, when it worshiped in Sands stroet, when it moved into a finer edifice on Clinton street, when it boldly resolved upon the free pow system. General Smith was a member of the old Hamilton Literary Association, whoso identity is now lost in tho moro ambitious Hamilton Club, and was conspicuous and useful in various public affairs.

The Republican Campaign Committee of twelve appointed by the General Committoo has made a good selection for chairman in the person of Mr. Theodore B. Willis. Does he know what the work beforo him really is Ho will naturally say, To get out a full vote for Harrison and Morton in November. Undoubtedly, but there is something important to be done beforo that.

Ho has to convince the great body of officially disinterested Ropublican voterB that tho Brooklyn organization is capable, trustworthy and deserving of porsonal and financial backing. Of late years an impression has prevailed that the chosen or self np pointed directors of party affairs are feeble or indifferent or treacherous, or all threo, and that effort to co operate with them is scarcoly worth whilo. This is a formidable obstacle which Chairman Willis encounters at the outset. To overcomo it, to remove the impression, to convince the Republicans that they have strong and effective leadership this will bo half his battle ui Clubs. 01ubs "iH'j So liLiLfn iniiil come to ha regarded as a hero who faced cat throats at midnight.

Surely the girl would hove had him after that. Young men who are very much in love aro given occasionally to creating conditions which appeal to the romantic or sympathetic sido of human nature, and if poor Phinney saw that ho could not succeed in his lovo affair so long as ho did nothing more brilliant than handle brakos on an elevated road why should ho not have made one bold and chivalrous move before abandoning tho struggle Could a moro touching appeal bo made to a girl's heart than that of a wounded suitor who had been shot down in her defense and in defense of a possible mother in law The trouble with Phinney was that ho did not soom to tako into account tho fact that tho world was not made yesterday, and that it contains very much brighter mon than ho could have over hoped to bo. TriUIl Which Did Not Lie in a Well. Father Frausioli said yesterday that tho repairing should havo been done a month ago that is, the repairing of tho broken pipe at St. Peter's Church, on Hicks and Warren streets.

How much water from it ran to wasto it is impossiblo to say, but it at least suggests tho large probable leakage throughout the city a quantity which can bo ill spared in view of tho limit of the aggro gate supply. The discovery of the break was also a severe disappointment to people who attributed the flow to a miraculous sourco and therefore found magical virtue in tho spring. There is a strong human inclination to faith in the mysterious and supernatural. But tho saddest result of yesterday's prosaic disclosure is tho discouragement of local science. Too much praiso cannot bo given to the neighboring analyst for the prompt intelligence with which he approached tho subject.

His lino temper of original investigation must havo intensified the chagrin with which ho learned that the aaalatis plumbi" had betrayed his confidence. Ho had prepared a first rato certificate for the holy well It Is tho puro3t spring water I havo ovrst'On, but I havo not yet dotarminod Its mineral properties. Thoro ia nothing in llidgovood lllto It, and it is much bettor and healthier than tlio city water, No, it does not como from leaks In auy pipes. It is as clear as distilled water and Kidgowood is not. This would havo looked very well indeed in advertising columns, especially with a postscript as to the "mineral properties." The announcement that there is nothing iu Ridgewood liko it" is certainly significant.

But here conies a skeptical plumber, who does not protend to be a scientist, but is a mero accumulator of wealth, with his agnostic associates. I've struck Ridgewood," said one. "I beliovoyou," added another. "That's good Ridgewood water," remarked a third. Then arose a chorus from the sorrowful pilgrims It's not a well at all, but only a bustod water pipe." So tho jiatronago of tho fashionable spa will not be diverted to the Sixth Ward of Brooklyn by the spring which had a taste not unlike some of tho Saratoga waters." The Eagle offers its congratulations to its esteemed ingenious and, as tho conclusion shows, also ingenuous contemporary, tho Bteindard Union, and its analytical expert.

EllORN, Actmt, mm Denies That Die Called Itii Wilo Names or Treated Her Cruelly The entire afternoon session of tho Special Term of tho Supromo Court, yesterday, was occupied with tho testimony ol Dr. Josoph N.

H. Wal brldgo, In his own behalf, ou tho defense, in his wife's suit against him for a separation. Tho doctor is an invalid and lookod like a physical wreck. Ho gavo his ovldonco reclining at full length In au invalid's chair, but his voico was stroug enough to bo heard without difficulty. Ho said ho was 5D years old, a dentist by profession, but had not practiced by reason of 111 hoalth sinco 18S5.

Tho plaintiff Is his second wife. He denied that ho treated her cruolly and said that his treatment of her had been tho same as auy ordinary man would accord to his wife. He doniod that ho evor oallod her names. IIo gavo testimony to show that his wire was fault finding and made lifo unpleasant by hor conduct and complaints. Once, ho said, ho bought a pony and villago cart, but the pony ran away, smashing up tho outfit, throwing him out aud Injuring him severely.

His wife told him that it was a punishment from God, bocauso ho had bought a cart she could not use. Judgo Cullen hold an ovouing so.sion and threo witnesses woro oxamiuod lor tho dofonso. A Mrs. Irouo Phillips, a colored woman, testified that sho did laundry work In tho Walbi'idgo flat, on Lafay otto avouue. Ono day Mrs.

Walbrldgo cniso into tbo kitchen whore sho was ironing to cook au egg and some oatmeal. She said she bad a very moan husband and that he was very ugly to hor, and nho kept talking uutil her husband camo iu nnd told her ho was tired of hearing her talk about him to litis colored woman and ordorod hor to como Into tho kitchen. She refused to go and ho took hold of her nnd gently pushed ber out. Sho climbod up Into tho window and ho told her to got down. Sho refused and there wus a tusslo.

Whon it was over Mr. Waibridgo's face was scratchod and ho lookod as though his whiskers hud been pulled. Mrs. Bosslo L. Martin, of 333 Lafayette avonuo.

In the samo flat building with Walbi idgo, testified that ouo morning Mrs. Walbridgo came and called to hor Irom her window to "come and tioo tuis sick hor husband came and took, her away, and afterward sho saw Mrs. Walbridgo pushing hor husband across tho room and umding him in tho back with both fists; sho had oftun hoard Mrs. Walbridgo at tho window crying out, x'0 God, how long must I boar the torture of this man Ou cross examination Mrs. Martiu said that Mr.

Walbridgo often called at her Hal and that lie was thoro about Ecu ago; ho came mI jmo, in tho afternoon, and came in over tho roof. Witnoss admitted that sho was prejudiced against Mrs. Wal bridge, but declared hor feeling was due to Walhridgo's own actions. Klizaboth Douhani, tlio woman who Mrs. Walbridgo alleges was lnrgoly responsible for hor troubles, was also examined and said Rhe wus 13 years old.

Sho was born i England. She did not live with hor husband because ho was In tho habit of going ou sprees and got drunk and lost his omploymout. He wont away and sho went out to service. ATter working in different placos sho finally arrived iu the doctor's family. Sho wont thero outiroly ignorant of any family trouble.

Tho flat was not furnished. At first Mrs. Walbridgo treated hor kindly. About a week after sho came Mrs. Walbridgo questioned hor about her affairs aud asked hor if sho was marriod and whore hor husband was.

Sho told hor ho was 20.00J miles from hor aud Mrs. Walbridgo said she wishod her huabaud was 20,000 miles away from hor. The first flvo mouths that wituoss was thoro not a day passed that Mrs. Walbridgo did not say tho vory worst things possible to her about Iter husband, and sho had otton heard hor say things derogatory to his fidelity to his marriago vows. Thero was UO trouble botween wituoss aud Mrs.

Walbridgo until sho told Mrs. Walbridgo sho would have nothing to do with hor family troubles, and wituoss denied that sho over spat at Mrs. Walbridgo on the stairs, though hor explanation of tho affair lookod mightily liko it, and sho admitted that sho threatened to knock Mrs. Walbridgo dowu. Sho claimed that Mrs.

Walbridgo provokod hor. At 10 o'clock tho court adjournod uutil this morning. JUSTICESHIP CANDIDATES HOPEFUL. ffho Ilaca Iletivccn Ex Auditor Voegro and A. IS.

ftutiiutr. Tho candidates in tlio Eastern District for appointment to tho Justiceship of tho Third District Court, uow presided over by Justico Naohor, are not discouraged by tho failure of the Mayor, Auditor and Controller to moot ou Tuosday and tho consequent rumors. Each caudidato with tho utmost confldonoo reasons that it moans his probablo ap pointmout aud assorts that the supposed slate was orokeit on his aecouut. Eron Mr. Hayoj is credited with re eutoriug tho race aud gruffly stating that ho was thero to remain to tho last.

Tho assertion on his part, howovor, Is a littlo facetious aud lu toudod only to glvo tho public a littlo "taffy" as to his sticking qualitlos. Tho belief that the oflloo will bo givon to a Gorman Domocrat is very goneral, aud from that staudpoiut tho matter is. vory generally canvassed. Tho Gonuans fool that a mau from tho Eastorn District proper should get tho offlce and not tho ono supposed to bo slated, Mr. Getting.

Tho lattor, who was constable somo years ago, resides far out iu tho Eighteenth Ward. Postruastor nea drix is creditod with urging his appointment, and what is termed tho Postmaster's intorlorouco is recoivod with disfavor, if not positive Indignation. Tho fooling soom3 io bo that if a Gorman is to recoivo tho appointment ox Auditor Voogo ought to got it. Ho is backed by all tho wealthy and iu flucntial Germans of that section, tho Retail More bants' Association and tho Plattdeutsch societies. It was, prior to tho au uouncomoutof Mr.

Gotting's namo as tho slated appointee, thought that Mr. Voogo had a suro thing of it, for according to Domocratic usage under tho present management au ox official was rowardod for faithful sorvlcos. But Mr. Voogo has uot trained under Mr. Hayes la rocoat years aud tho luttor is credited with doing what littlo he can to defoat him, as ho roallzos that ho was unceremoniously and without tho least cousldoratlon thrown overboard himself.

Tbo ups and downs of politics aro forcibly illustrated iu tho ox Auditor's caso. Ouly a fow years ago ho had absolutely tho naming of ouo Justico and had ho choson to pruvo falso to his party ho could with tho co operation of tho then Mayor, Mr. Low, havo uamoJ throo, whilo to day ho 13 au applicant for a Justiceship. THE PASTOR OF GENERAL HAP.RISON Writes a Letter About Slim to a Citizen of BronKlyn. Tho follovring letter has been received by tho Secretary ot the Anti Saloon League Indianapolis, July 7, 1838.

Jfr. J. L. Mitchell, liruuklyn, X. 1.: Deah Sir It has boou impossible boforo this for mo to acknowledge your interesting communication of June and ovon now my parish duties so crowd upon me that I cannot fiud time to write what I would bo willing to havo published.

At the special requost of one of tho editors of one of tho loading religious Journals 1 havo writton a somewhat lengthy lotier In regard to General Harrison's lifo in this eity. I suppose that loller will appear uoxt weok. It covors about the saino ground that you make inquiry about in your communication. Yet I do feel froo to say to you and through you to tho frionds towhom you refer that anything I havo soon In print lately iu reference to tho purity of lifo und uoblo symmetrical Christian typo ot manhood exhibited by Hum'sou is true. For more than it third of a century ho has so lived in this city, In his homo, in his church, in his professional and in his political relatione, as to win the admiration and tho fullest confidence of those who know him best.

As to the high stand ho has takon In regard to the quostion of temperance I may refer you to tho address which ho deliverod at Danville, iu Xovombor, 1837. Ho is no friend of tho saloon. In that Danvillo speech among othor utterances was this; "Thero may havo been a time when the Kepublicau party of Indiana bad dalliance with the liquor interest, but 1 bog to say to all who hoar tuo tc day that whoa tho platform of the last Stato Couvoutiou was road and received witli cheers by tho groat mass who hoard it, auy dallianco botween tho Kopub lican party aud tho liquor loaguo wussoverodonco and forever. I also inclose a lettor writton to tho utuanapod'a of Juno 30. The writer of tho lotter, Dr.

J. T. Boyd, Is a physician of proniinonco. Ho is an elder as woll as a membor of Presbyterian church, fib was prosidont of tho Indianapolis Union League during thoso oxclting days of the Civil War when tho Iiuigbtis of tho Golden Circle camo so U' ar capturing tho government of the State, releasing robed prisoners, otc, and In 1S72 was tho Prohibition caudidato for Govornor. I think ho tlio case in a way that may sorvo to enlighten some of our Prohibition friends.

But I must 1 started to writo but a note and It has lougtheuod into a lotter. such mo of it or of parts of it as you see fit. Vory truly yours, M. L. Haines.

When tailor Henry Levy, of 587 Fulton stroet, road in Tuosday's E.tOf.E Mrs. 'Rosonsloin's account of the row raised by tho marriage of his pretty daughter, Hnttle, to youir; Abraham Roson steiu, tho oxprossniau, ho shaipouod tho claws of his vougoanco and unfolded the broad pinions of his wrath. Ho finally coneludod, bowovor, that tho best molliod of retaliation would ho to fold his wings and talk to a roportor. Mr.

"Iu dofonso of my daughter ho said, "who Is alleged to havo been Jilted by Samuol Rosen steiu, I havo to say that Alice is a and obodi eut child. I had tho same objection to Samuol Itoseustoiu that I had to Abraham Roaenstoln.

Alice was not Jlltod by auy meaus. Mrs, Rosou stolu's oldest sou, George, who is a Custom Ilouso broker, baa boou In trouble. Under fear of prosecution he declared hit Intention of committing suicido. Mrs. Rosonstoin sent for mo to consult with me on the subject Mrs.

Tho public can Judge of tho conduct of Mrs. Jacobs In advising my daughtor to elopo, whon sho know wo objoctod to Abraham and his family.

Hattio was a disobedi ent and stubborn child. Mrs. Rosonstoln's story about my going to a Now York rabbi to havo tho marriage undone is fatso. I know too much about tho marriage laws in New York State to attompt such a foolish thlug." SHE DESERTED HER CHILDREN, And an Italian Tried to Lose Thcia in YorK. About two mouths ago Isabella Montrndo camo to Now York from Italy with her three children, Gaetana, a girl 34 yoar old, Antonio, aged 8 years, and Antonolli, 10 yours old.

Thoy wero without moans of support and tbo Emigration Commissioners woro about to eond thom back to Italy when Pasquale Bonvoclo, tho ownor of a restaurant, shoo shop and harbor shop at 155, 159 and 10U Third avenue, Brooklyn, agreed to hiro Mrs. Montrado to work for him nt a mouth and board. Tho children woro to remain with the mother. Just prior to Mrs. Montrado's cqming to Brooklyn an uuelo arrived from Syracuse and took tho girl, Gaetana, homo with him.

Mrs. Montrado remained with Bonvoclo two days whon sho ran away, leaving the two boys behind her. She has not boon soon sinco. Bonvoclo appoaled to his friond, Raphael Lutizo, for advice, as ho could not afford to koop the boys. Lutizo told liim that tho matter could be oasily arranged, all that was being to give tho children ovor to tho pollco, arid that they would placo tho children in some institution.

Bonvoclo did not liko to do that, so his friend said ho would do it for him. Last Tuesday Lutizo onticod tho boys to Now York, whore he lost them. Thoy wero found in Stanton Btreot, crying, and woro takon to tho station house, whlthor Lutizo follovrod them. Tho boys were taken to court tho uoxt day, aud Lutizo was also thoro. Tho lattor was closely questioned, aud gavo such evasive answers that ho was arrested.

Agont Young, of tho Society for tho Prevention of Cruelty to Children, will mako a thorough Investigation. An effort will bo mado to find tho mothor of tbo boys. OYEUCOtlE HI THE HE IT. Eobert Moody, 32 years of ago, living at 209 WIthora stroot, was found yesterday afternoon on tho sldowalk In front of 36 Ash street, Seventeenth Ward, suffering from tho effects of tho heat Ho was removed in an ambulance to St. Catharine's Hospital.

HB WILL iUVB TO BATHS NOW. James Murphy, alias Dirty Face, of 162 Butlor street, was beroro Justice Massoy yostorday tor about the thirtieth time on a charge ot intoxication. IIo was sent to the Penitentiary for four montba. cadence. A gloomy day has dawned for Bepnb licanism when itB organization is surrendered into tho hands of a coterie of petty bosses like Quay in Pennsylvania, Piatt in New York and Chandler in New Hampshire.

Tho tendency of tho party management is downward. Its leaders represent neither statesmanship nor patriotism. Intent only on serving special interests, saturated with selfishness and devoured by greed, tho politicians in control do not merit or command the confidence or respect of tho country. Senator Quay may plot and scheme from now until November, but ho will plot and scheme in vain. Now York is not Pennsylvania, nor can it be captured by resort to Pennsylvania methods.

For every Roland tho distinguished Keystone manipulator will find tho Democrats prepared to give him an Olivor. Moreover, the Cleveland campaign is a campaign of tho people. Whatever impetus it receives comes from tho good will of the public rnthor than from the motive power of "fat" and "soap" generated in hotbeds of monopoly. Tho Republican committeemen havo perfected a powerful machine combination. But they are deficient in votes and are likely to remain so despite all tho "fat" and "soap" they can gather from monopolists, promoters of Trusts and other despoilers of the masses.

A Cash Ultimate from a Farisscr. In tho current number of Belford's Magazine appears an article entitled "A Farmer's View of It," signed by Sol. Putnam, which may or may not bo an occasional pen name for Don Piatt, tho editor. It is written rudely, plainly, and has a smack of exaggeration, but it brings certain questions down to "hard pan" and makes a forcible showing of the evils of an oppressive tariff. Tho presumptive farmer mourns the decline in tho value of his land and of its products, and the increasing difficulty of living under a system of double charges for all necessaries and conveniences of life, excepting food.

IIo fears that with tho crowding of low class Europeans into tho country it will not bo long before tho American farm laborer is working for 818 a year and a sheepskin coat, like thoso who are employed among the wheat growing regions near tho Baltic, or for 6 cents a day and a cotton shirt, liko tho agriculturists in India; for ho finds although other interests in this country aro improving, that of tho farmer is not. His county is shiuglod with mortgages, while Carnegie, Vauderbill, Gould and men of that sort "carry the country's prosperity in their breeches pockets." Then ho proceeds to show why this state of affairs exists: His house cost him $800, but ho figures it out that when the protective tax is deducted from what ho paid for his lumber, shingles, glass, hardware and paint he has presented the Protectionists with $300 the difference between tho real cost and tho "protected" cost of his house, adding rathor bitterly: I had paid 300 to the Carnegie set to keep up their palaces and tallyhos at homo and in Scotland." His stable that cost him $A00 would have cost him $250 if it had not been protected. Tho harness for his plow horses cost hiin $10, of which sum 11 was a tax and a loss. His threo plows cost 30, or 12 moro than they would4have cost if ho had not been assessed for Mr. Carnegie's benefit.

His binder cost $'225, and he afterward learned that it was made at an actual cost of 50. His horses aro shod for 1.20, of which sum 40 cents is retained as extra wages to the laborers who are swelling around the Pittsburg furnaces kid gloves and beaver hats. His family clothing bill is 200 a yoar, and would be 25 less if the tariff were reformed. He is told that ho is not only helping his fellow countrymen to high wages and luxurious living, but that he is supporting the Government; 'still, ho finds that thcro are township, county and State taxes to render in cash, and he has to mortgago his farm to pay them. He finds, moreover, that emigrants from whom the country is not protected, though iiumy of them are far.

from desirable, aro filling up the laud and driving him to tho wall in a ruinous competition in food products. It costs $1 to plant, manure, raise, cut. thresh and store a bushel of wheat, and ho gets 6'0 couts for it. During (no years in which he has lived near the Hocking coal mines ho has seen all tho Americans driven out by Welsh and Irish, these in turn by Toles, Bohemians and Italians, who are threatened by negroes and would be replaced by Chinese if tho law permitted. The farmer sells under free trade and buys under protection, and he wants to know why tho burden cannot be more evenly adjusted.

Such is tho gist of this farmer's statement and protest, and tho truth it is based on should bo apparent to Republican and Democrat alike. The special "protections" that aro cited are typical and, at least to the fanner, arc injurious. The men who are protected find it every year more difficult to hold their places and maintain their wages in tho face of that torrent of immigration that every day sweeps hundreds and sometimes thousands to our shores, and th3 farmer has increasing difficulty in Belling the produce of his laud and labor when oach year sees new hundreds competing with him for entrance to tho markets. Small farmers complain that tho timo has already passed when they can save anything after paying taxes and expenses, and the country is not big enough for many such farms as those vast and remunerative domains of Dakota and Nebraska that are in tho hands of men who wero shrewd and lucky enough to get there and seize tho land before it was wanted by the masses. Tho timo has passed when stock raisers and growers of grain, of fruit, of vegetables, can hope to possess themselves of colossai farms and rangos iu the West, for the publio lands of tho United States, that seemed almost boundless whon tho Pacific railroads were laid across the plains, aro practically gouo, but the timo has not passed when life can bo made )Ossible and comfortable to every gardener and granger, though his patch of ground cover loss than a dozen acres.

Whon he can build his houses and barns, stock his farm and keep himself in clothes and furniture and coal for a third less than ho is now paying, and whon it is no longer deemed necessary to build vaults to hold the superfluous and unspent levies that aro made on tho pockets of tho populace, then the farmer and other citizens will thrivo alike. Gilbert S. Pbftmey's suicide. Gilbert S. Phinney's attempt to conceal suicide by creating the impression that he was attacked by burglars was extremely clumsy.

Apart from tho many contradictory statements which ho niado, there was ample evidence to show that he expired by his own hand. There was not tho slightest trace of a burglar's visit; and it is certainly peculiar that although Phinney claimed not to havo seen tho man who shot him, he had no trouble in finding the weapon which tho imaginary marauder was said to havo hidden. Burglars who try to kill people do not generally leave their pistols under beds whon they are compelled to beat hasty retreat, and moreover, it is somewhat singular that in tho dead man's trunk was found a revolver exactly similar to that with which tho shooting was done. Nor is the motive for suicide wanting. Phinuoy was in love with a girl ho could not got.

His life was insured in different benevolent organizations to tho amount of 50,000, and, being bent on self destruction, it was quite natural that ho should concoct some scheme to insuro, as ho thought, tho payment of tho money to those ho desired to have it. It may well be asked how, on tho salary of a brakoman, ho managed to obtain the reputation of being "tho champion joiner" of benevolent societies, for the records show that he was a member of more than a score of such organizations. It is a common thing, we know, tor doctors and other professional gentlemen to join a largo number of societies on the "business principle" theory, or, iu other words, with the hope of seeing their practice increase with the extension of their list of acquaintances. But Phinney had no incentive of this character. If ho went on joining societies with tho vifcw of leaving the money to his sweetheart the case assumes a decidedly novel and romantic aspect.

Merely because he did not think it necessary to kill some inoffeusivo person before disposing of himself, he is entitled to more respect than the general run of suicides but if, in addition to this, he was actuated by a desiro to provide for tho worldly wants of tho girl ho left behindibim, some adequate tnbuto should bo paid to his memory. But how foolish ho was to suppose that people would not see through his simple minded plot. Perhaps ho wantod to inako an impression. No doubt it would have been very pleasant if he had but slightly wounded himself and then Soldiers of the Banner Democratic Ward. Voter of the Fourteenth Enthusiastically Rnllyingr Under tho Standard of CIoto laad and Thurman A Housing Moetinff Lest Evening.

There was a grand outpouring of tho Democracy of tho Fourteouth Ward last night at the wigwam on Bodford avonuo, near North Soventh street, and tho nomination of Cleveland and Thurman ras ratiaed amid ablozeof fireworks, patriotic airs discoursed by a baud of music and oratory. In addition a banner, tho first one of tho campaign, wos flung to the breeze across the avonuo from tho wigwam to an opposite building. Tho word lod In making arraugomonts for and fir lug tho first gun of the campaign.

It was suggested that on overflow mooting bo held, but there was no convenient placo in which to hold it.

Tho baud of music was Btalioned in front of tho hall and the pyrotechnics wero discharged by Mr. Maunle. Ono piece, doslguatod tho whistlo bomb, was very protty in its action. It is something new and consists ol a stoain whistlo and baby wakor comblaod. Whon tho largo banner, covering tho street and having vory good portraits of tho Democratic Presidential candidates on it, was uufuiled, tho crowd applauded vigorously and the baud played, "Uail to tho Chiof."

In his euing remarks ho staled that he recognized many mon iu tho audlouco, Domocats, who had boon opposod to tho ticket last Fall, or rather, who felt it their duty to support anothor ticket.

Iu tho name of tho Domocraoy of tho ward he welcomed thoso mon and all other stray shoop back to the fold. Applause. Every man had a right to voto as his Judgment dictated, and after seeing the error of his ways ho would bo received, If honest in his convictions, back Into the ward association. So much unity now existed, and the enthusiasm over tho St. Louis nominations was so great that tho speaker felt assured that tho Presidential tlekot would rocoivo a larger majority than in 1876.

Tho majority for Cloveland and Thurmau would bo fully 3,000. Thoro was no doubt, Mr. Patterson added, that by a phonomonal tidal wayo the Invinciblo Cleveland and the graud Old ltomau would bo swopt Into tbo VVhito House. Applause. Colonel Lowis It.

From immense numbors present I tool assured that thoro is an earnestness in tho work that augurs well for tho graud tickot that has beeu presented for your suffrages, Tho Republicans tell you that a high tariff is tho very salvutiou of tho country. This is all fulse. It means buncombe and is usoloss.

deceives no Amorlcan workingman. The tariff reduction of tho Democratic party means the bettering of the Americun people ami it will assist thorn. Ilfgh tariff means more woalth for tho capitalist, less money for tho poor man, and you, as Democrats, do not proposo to bo hood winked by any such nonsonso. Four yoars ugo you won a victory. Vou will do it uguiu.

Applause. Ex Asaomblyman O. H. JilcCarrr. oaid in substance that tho Republicans woro raising a false issue by stating that tho Democratic was a froo irado party and that tho revision of tho tariff was only a cloak for freo trade.

The Democratic wus not a froo trado party and iho Republicans admit that a revision of tho tariff is uacossary, but thoy wero afraid to tako tho initiative iu tho matter. The Democratic party would do nothing to Jeopardize tho interests of tho workingman. Assistant District Attornoy John U. Shorter was the last spoakor. Ho eulogized tho Administration of President Cleveland.

The country prospered In the past few years. Speaking on the tariff question Mr. Shortor said that tho Democratic party proposed roduciug tho tariff on tho necessities of lifo and not on tho luxuries, Buch as diamonds and silks. The party was, in a word, tho party of tho poor man, and tho Republican was tho party of tho rich man. It was a strange anomaly that tho Republican parly, which claimod to be a party of high moral ideas, should bo iu favor of taxing everything high but whisky.

Tho spoakor noxt roferrod to Mr. Harrison as favuriug Chiueso labor.

Wo have had the 'extraordinary concession of Hamilton Fish, and the scarcely extraordinary confession of Commissioner Dowel, showing that men whom the community had trusted were unworthy of the conli aence reposed in them. Mr.

Fish's moral obliquity was not concealed by any vail of Bimsy excuses for his conduct. He assumed tho uttitudo of a man who was not only not ashamed of what ho had done but who seemed to think that the prostitution of a public trust for the sake of "strengthening his party" was pardonable use of official power. Mr. llowrt, while less truculent, plainly revealed the fact that he too had a very inadequate souso of his obligations as a Commissioner, and that ho was not above abetting the abuses which tho investigation has disclosed. Yesterday Commissioner Baldwin had an opportunity of contributing his share to tho disgraceful story.

At the time of his appointment ho was president of the Louisville md Nashville Railroad. Tleman Clark, Contractor O'Brien's partner, became a director in Vho road shortly after Mr. Baldwin's resigua lionof tho presidency. His election as a director seems to have been coincidental with the formation of a partnership between him and Mr. Baldwin in certain Btock speculations.

When asked to explain the transaction Mr. Baldwin at first declined to answer, but sub lequently stated that he imd Clark purchased ttocks and bonds of the Evans ville and Terre Haute Railroad, and were interested as directors of the Mount Morris Bank, which discounted the notes of Governor Hill held by John O'Brien. In the course of their joint stock dealings Baldwin borrowed 000 of tho Continental Bank on notes indorsed by Contractor Clark. It appears also from Baldwin's testimony that there were three syndicates bidding for the contracts: O'Brien and Clark, Brown, Howard Co. and what was known as the Hamilton Smith syndicate.

Tho first represented the Democratic element of tho "deal," the second represented the Republican element and the third a number of gentlemen, among whom were Gustav Schwab, President of tho Bank of North America, and Samuel D. Babcock. The law requires th at tho bidding shall bo open and that tho award luiall be made to the lowest responsible bidder. But Air. McCulloh's evidence shows that the awards wero the result of a compromise.

His words are: "The iiual award of contracts was the result of a compromise between tho Commissioners that one portion of the contracts should bo given to O'Brien Clark and the other portion to Brown, Howard Co." Inasmuch as tho Commission had been or I janized on a strictly political b.isis tho dis iposilioii of the work was the fruit of a strictly political dicker. The disinterested Democratic patriots' having agreed and covenanted with the disinterested Republican patriotB that the interests of the deal were to be paramount to the interests of the City of New York the obedient Commissioners faithfully carried out the terms of tho understanding. The public would have been in no degroo surprised if this shameful bargain had implicated the professional hucksters in either party but when gentlemen of hitherto honorable fame and standing, liko Messrs. Fish, Dowd and Baldwin, acknowledge their participation, as if it involved neither iishonor nor reproach, wo have a humiliating prcof of tho prevailing low standard of morality and of the ease with which men jredited with scrupulous integrity discard tho restraints that mark their private dealings ivheii the temptation to benefit themselves financially or politically out of public enterprises is presented. Quay in tlie Saddle.

The organization of the Republican National Committee appropriately supplements She work of the Chicago Convention. The slevation of Senator Quay, of Pennsylvania, to the chairmanship fittingly corresponds with the candidates and the platform. General Harrison owes his nomination to machine methods. In approving the selection of Quay he bases his hopes of election on machine manipulation. Tho Republican can yobs, from this timo forward, is to bo managed and directed from tho standpoint of a wirepuller more audacious than Dorsey, more experienced than Arthur, moro cunning than Eikius and more persevering mid systematic than Cornell.

Into Now York, Now Jorsey, Indiana and Connecticut are to be imported the peculiar practices which in Pennsylvania have invested its junior Senator with a celebrity that has enabled him to practically dominate the Keystone Commonwealth. For managerial purposes he is perhaps, the strongest leader the Republican committeemen could have chosen. Senator Quay is a professional politician. He is a spoilsman after Flanagan's own heart. The distribution of public offices as rewards for partisan services is a fundamental principle of his creed.

From comparatively humble beginnings ho has risou, by rigid adhesion to the machine, to undisputed leadership in the majority party of the second State in the Union. His promotion over the heads of the Camorons, father and son, is among the most striking phenomena of the time. Never in the history of that famous elan could its chieftain attain the position of commanding influence now occupied by Senator Quay. In the work of controlling and directing the Pennsylvania Republicans Quay can always make headway without help from the Camorons: but the Cauierons could no moredisponso with Quay's assistance and co operation than thoy could shoot the Niagara rapids in a Fair mount Park pleasure boat. His promotion from tho Ktatiou of a neighborhood boss to command of his fellow partisans, first in the State and now in the nation, emphasizes the change that within the past few years has everywhere overtaken organized Republicanism.

To the higher qualities of statesmanship Senator Quay makes no pretensions. He possesses no qualifications as a public speaker, no capacity to win over converts by appeals to reason, no ability to persuado tho masses by argument that his schemes are best calculated to advance the general welfare. In Congressional debate his voico has novor boon effectively raised. To tho forum of popular discussion ho is a comparative stranger. IIo Is neither a distinguished orator of the Conk ling type nor an eminently respectable figurehead like Mr.

Benjamin Franklin Jones or the late Marshall Jewell. Upon none of tho time honored plans of campaign does the Republican party place its reliance this year. Benator Quay is a favored agent of the Protection millionaires. For him has been reserved tlio delicate task of frying tho "fat" out of the wealthy manufacturers who are reaping tho benefits of a high tariff. His is to be a "boodle" canvass.

He is to gather tho "soap" and use it against Cleveland as Dorsey did against Hancock. That is tho significance of the choice made by tho Republican National Committee of its chairman. More significant than the direct bearing Df Senator Quay's election on the canvass is the illustration it affords of Republican' de ChicORO 10 21) 00 20 Detroit CO1 '20 30 Now YorK a(i 21 fill: .000, Boston 135.29 (ill .3 6 .333 It will be seen that New York fs closing Iu upou Dolrolt. Tho Brooklyn Athletic Club's nine won their first victory iu tho Amateur Loaguo sorio3 yestorday, on tho occasion of thoir third gams With tho Staton Isiaud Crickot Club's nine, tho homo toam presenting a stronger niuo thau they did tho provious Saturday against tho Staton Island Athletic Club's nine. On Saturday thoy lost tho game by luforior fielding, whilo yostorday thoy won by thoir superior work la this rospuct, for the at tho bat by 13 haso hits to 8, and thoy did by far tho best work iu tho bos, but thoir fielding was away bolow their mark, and tho lack of tho good support given tho Brooklyn piichor resultod in tho defeat of the visiting team by 7 to 4 in runs, 8 to 12 iu base hits, 2 to 9 iu fielding errors and 8 to 3 in battery errors, only ono run being oarnod off tho pitching in tho entire game, and that was by tho visitors.

Tho Brooklyns put in Downey to pitch, and liko the generality of young pitchers he wont in for speed at tho cost of accuracy iu dolivory, and had ho not been so well supported bohlnd tho bat His pitching would have been moro costly than It was. But four bases on balls and threo wild pltchos woakenod his work in the box. Amatour pitchers havo a crazo for striking out batting opponents by intimidating thom by their speedy dolivery, and this proves to bo costly work unless thoy are supportod bohlnd the bat by an unusually lluo catcher. They loso eight of iho fact that speed is but a minor elomont of succoss iu pitching, head work being the winning feature ot a pitcher's work, and this can only bo brought into play whon tho pitchor has attainod thorough commaud of tho ball in dolivery. Tho contrast between young Downey's wild, swift pitching and tho protty work of Ayraulr in tho box was vory striking yesterday.

Up to tho fifth inuiug of yostorday's game tho Brooklyn mou had only scored a singlo safe hit off Ayrault'a pirching, and had all tho chancoa offered the Statou Island Hold off his pitching boon accepted they would not havo scored throo In tho ontire gamo and not a sluglo run. IIo was sploudidly supportod behind tho bat by through costly orrors by don aud Halsted, and tho good base running of tho Brooklyn alue, no loss than ooven unoarnod runs woro scored. Sharp floldiug was an important factor in aiding tho homo toam to wiu yesterday, whilo tho vory revorso causod the visitors' defeat Carr aud Edwards opened tho gamo with safe slngloD, and on Hatfield's failure to stop tho swift, low ball on which Ford made his third striko an unearned run was scored by Carr. Iu tho fourth inning safe hits In succession by Ford, Caton and Waldou ont In tho ouly earned run of tho gamo, whilo, ou the othor sido, up to this inning not a sluglo hit was scored. In this iuuiug, howovor, Downey got In a hit, but it did not yield a ruu, tho visitors fielding sharply up to tho fifth inning.

In tho fifth innlug Evors, tho flrst striker, was sploudidly caught out by Johnsou at ceu tor Hold from a ouo handed catch, and after Farley had mado a safe hit EJler was retired. With two mou out and one ou socoad Hatfield was missed on a fly tip, and af tor ho had boon given this lito aud had takon hl3 base on balls Fauss was given a lifo by Waldon, and throo men woro on basos when the throe should havo boon retired. Thou Ayrault made a costly error in throwing to flrst baso whon no ono was thoro to take the ball, and on tho orror Farloy scored tho tlo run, aud encouraged by tho looso fielding Brown and Downey mado safo hits and throo runs wero scored, giving tho Broooklyns tho lead by 3 to 2. In tho sixth imiingoii'a wild tiirow by Edwards and anothor mutt by Waldon, aided by Catou's fumble, Farley went tho round of tho basos, tho seventh Inuiug ouding with a lost game for the Islanders by i to 2. In the oighth inning tho lattor got ia a ruu on a singlo hit by Campbell, a wild pitch aud Hatfield's high throw to third, Campboll stoaliug homo ou Cateu's strike out.

Ou tho othor sido In this Iuuiug, but for tho Doacon'a drop ot a fly ball and Carr's high throw to Campboll, tho Bido would have boon retired for a blauk; but thoso errors, aided by throe sluglo hits and good baso stealing, gave tho homo team throo unoarnod ruus: a pitched ball hitting Iho batsman and a baso hit sent In an uucai HOd run, the gamo ending at P. with a victory scored by tho Brooklyn nino br sharp Holding and base running.

Pastor Storrs, according to his clerical brothor, is gazing wistfully toward tho primeval forests. To day the Eagle prints a letter written to a citizen of Brooklyn by Pastor Haines, of Indianapolis.

It is of especial interest as coming from the spiritual adviser of tho Republican candidate for President. Pastor Haines says, among other things, that he rogards the general as a "noble symmetrical Christian typo of manhood." That is, translating glowing Western diction into tho colder terms of tho East, such ns we of the Atlantic seaboard apply to Richardson the general is a truly good man." There is no doubt about that, so we can fight it out on the tariff. Mayor Gleason's letter to ox Police Commissioner Williams, giving his reasons for tho latter's romoval, shows that Long Island City has a chief magistrate who is not afraid to do his duty. The ex Commissionor, it ap poars, was very indignant at tho slightest violation of tho Sunday laws within city limits, but was blind to tho fact that tho doings at Bowery Bay Beach, in which resort he is financially interested, wore of an extremely objectionable charactor. Indeed the conclusion seems to be justified that Mr.

Williams used his official power for the purpose of driving people out of town on Sundays to his own resort across the border line, where they were at liberty to buy rum or anything else. Mayor Gleason's course will bo sustained by public sentiment. Newspapers sometimes do good thing without knowing it. Sunday tho Eagle reprinted an article from the San Francisco Chronicle telling of tho doings of noted Western charactor known as Frontier Jim." The story, dealing as it did with some of tho more exciting features of life in tho West, was an interesting one, and was published without any idea that tho hero had over boon iu Brooklyn. It now appears that Frontier Jim has a sister living here to whom tho article in tho Eagle conveyed the first information concerning him that she had received for years.

Sho has written, and a happy meeting between sister and brother is, it is hoped, in prospect. PERSONAL MENTION. Dr. A. Y.

When the ground hogs crawled out of their holes last Spring and looked around for William Maxwell Evarts without finding him it cast a gloom over their entire community, and mauy of them, under the impression that they had been "rushing tho season," incontinently crawled back again. But the sadness of tho ground hogs was hilarity itself compared with tho sorrow which Mr. Evarts' long hibernation gave his admiring countrymen. Although a hope that ho would finally reappear lightened tho dreary vigil of the majority there wero some who entertained the superstition that he was dead, and nothing could shake their dismal belief that this world had seen the last of him. It is not to be wondered at, thoreforo, when ho bobbed up suddenly last evening in tho Casino at Saratoga and placed his old hat where the rain that leaked through tho roof could have a chance to impart to it a transient gloss, that tho reception with which he met should have been in tho nature of an ovation.

The audience, it is said, rose at him," and their demonstrations of joy on boholding again his lean, Cromwellinn visago lasted several minutes, a period almost long enongh to suflico for the utterance of ono of his historic sentences. It was such a pleasure to see him once more that it mattered very little what ho said, and of this fact his remarks show that he took full advantage. As a physical spec taclo Mr. Evarts is always particularly attractive to eyes accustomed to study anatomical details, but upon this occasion the instruction to bo derived in contemplating him from the standpoint of anatomy was forgotten in the ectasy aroused by his visible return to the walks of active politics. Tho crowd welcomed him as one who had strayed or been lost or stolen and opportunely restored in timo to join the funeral procession and take up a position immediately behind tho hearse.

His speech was a series of reminiscences a chronicle of his reflections on ancient history ns fiir as he had progessed with tho study of it at tho time of his falling asleep. It was a talo, so to speak, of the "storied past" of the days of James Buchanan and Abraham Lincoln of the far off time between which and tho present all the wonderful changes that constitute the characteristics of this new and modern era have como to pass. If the lamontod ltip Van Winkle had been thoughtful enough' to prepare his personal memoirs beforo departing to join his dog Schneider, the volumo would have afforded an appropriate companion pioco for Mr. Evarts' speech. Ho even went so far back as the d.

of tho witty Sheridan and related that upon a certain occasion that sparkling joker was arrested in a helpless and maudlin condition, and upon being asked his name answered 'William Wilberforce." The anecdote was probably intended to convey the idea that if some good Republican wero found drunk with a eop3r of tho Chicago free whisky platform in his pocket ho would endeavor to avoid identification by giving his name as Neal Dow or Clinton B. Fisk or some other temperance apostlo. But as the crowd were satisfied simply to see Mr. Evarts, tho disappointment of his remarks did not seriously diminish tho enjoyment of the hapjy occasion. Divided C'onncils.

Tho signs of harmony are disappearing from tho Republican sky. The experienced politicians of the National Committee found it necessary yOBterday to sit down summarily on tho pretensions of tho National League. In tho convention of Republican clubs at Saratoga there was more dissension than effective work. It is a significant sign of Republican weakness that tho party is suffering from too much "organization." Every timo it loses votes it forms a new assortment of clubs. If the capacity of tho State League is fairly represented by tho addresses at the League Convention its existence is an injury rather than a help to Republicanism.

Anything moro puerile and pusillanimous than tho words of President Foster has not been uttered from political stump in this Commonwealth. If an elephantine attempt at humor could bo tortured into a comprehensive presentation of tho issues before the people, tho heavy platitudes and asinine presumption of Foster and his kind might bo worthy of serious attention. In point of fact he poured out a mass of dreary dri vel that would havo put to the blush the inmates of a kindergarten. If nonsense of tho sort with which ho regaled his hearers is to pass current for Republican argumont in the campaign, tho party may as well gather together its demoralized rom nauts and form an association of tho feeblo minded. It is true that not much ought to bo expected of the younger parly men when so distinguished a statesman as Senator Evarts confesses, as he did last night, that he can find no moro congenial occupation than waving tho "bloody shirt." But Senator Evarts, at least, is coherent, whilo coherence is something of which Mr.

Foster would never be suspected. There is no reason why the truth should be concealed about the so called leogue of Republican club3. It is a fussy and meddlesome organization, without delegated powers or positive strength among tho party masses. Its chief purpose appears to bo to force into prominence a company of nobodies and create all the friction possible in the operation of the accredited party machinery. Before tho canvass is over the league, whioh has already demonstrated ita incapacity, will be found banging as a dead weight on the neck of.
