MoGownn," called Clerk Sut phln In the Queens County Court of Oyer and Tor miner this morning. There being no response, Judge Bartlett said: It appearing that the District Attorney has failed to attend this term of tho court, it is ordered that John Fleming, Esq an attorney and oounselor at law, bo appointed District Attorney for this term of tho court." The Judge's action was commended by tho Jurymen and lawyers, but It was particularly displeasing to the lunch counter politicians and the men who dread the result of an investigation of the absconding McGowan's affairs.

Judge Bartlett's charge to the Grand Jury was the strongest dellvored In the county for a long timo. On tho subject of District Attorney McGowan's defalcation and flight his Honor spoke as follows: I am sorry to say that you will be called uponjto consider a charge of flagrant official misconduot against a woll known citizen of your county. I am sorry because there Is no ovent more melancholy than the downfall and flight of a man who has been trusted by his party and by the people aud has provod reoreant to the confldonco which botn reposed In him. Such cases, howovor, call for tbe vlgrous action of tho courts to the end that tho old doctrine of honesty In office which, in those days, Is commonly expressed by the saying that "public office is a public trust," should be sternly and rigorously enforced." The Grand Jury retired and at once began an investigation of the killing of Charles Rhodes by Jesso Abrama on an Island in Hempstead Bay. An official of Newtown who was present to testify against McGowansoid he expected that tho Grand Jury would take aetlon In Collector Jamos Smith's case as well.

LEADING AGAIN The Atlantic in To day's Cor inthian Race.

Sho Fell Behind the Galatea in a Culm, But Regained Her Position With the First Breeze. The first annual regatta of the Corinthian Yacht Club is being sailed to day. Seldom does a now club begin with such favorable weather for its first race or with such a notable list of ontries. Among tho bis: single silckors are the Atlantic and Galatea, the only other contestants In their class being Mr. W.

A. W. Stuart's big yawl Cythera. At 11 o'clock tho Galotoa, Beduoin and At lantic, with a host of lamallor craft, woro standing about near tho starting line, which was diroctly opposite Fort Wadsworth. They moved about briskly.

Tho Atlantic kopt noarest the lino seeming determined to get her usual good start. Tho broezo fro3honed a little and all indications pointed to a splendid sail. Tho start which was sot for 10:30 was delayed by the Judges' boat, tho Luchonback, which did not arrlvo until nearly an hour Inter. The City of Long Branch, a Shrewsbury Elver steamboat, which ia popularly supposed to make hor way across the fiats on tho dew, if ueeossary, was picturesquely paddling along through tho loaving a ribbon of white foam in her wako as wido as her unwelldy hull. The bay was smooth and lookod its prettiest and thero wero but few clouds overhead to mar tho clear blue of tho sky.

There was quite a crowd at tho bluffs and moro ladles wero presont to day than at any of the othor rogattas. At 11:20 tho Luohenback arrlvod towing tho gayly bodecked stake boat aud dropped her in front of Fort Wadsworth.aftor which tho Luchonback herself took a position about midway botweou tho two shores of the Narrows. The preparatory signal, a long blast on tho whistlo of the Judges' boat, was givon at 11:22. At that momont tho Cythoria, tho English yawl was Just at tho line and wont down, but had to wear around and got back. At 11 :27:30 the starting whistlo was blown aud tho Galatea and Atlantic crossed the Englishman Just a longth In tho rear.

The liedouiu was a minuto later, with tho Clndorolla and the Strangor. A minute aftor tho Hue was crossed the Atlantic shot to tho front like a bird and was soon leading tho Galatea by two lougths. Sho Jumped to tho front almost magically. Tho Bedouin likowlso re sponded quickly to hor spinnakor and overhauled Oio Galatea. At 11 :32:30 tho last whistlo wa3 blown Just as the Cythoria camo down to tho lino, followed by tho small fry, which woro most all sailing with out numbora, and therefore would not bo Identified.

From tho start it was ovident that tho Atlantic would score anothor victory. From the timo sho crossed tho lino sho increased her lead over the Galatea. At 12:10:30 sho jibbed to starboard and rouuded tho spit buoy, followed at 12:41:45 by her English rival. Tho smaller boats were close up on tho spit and rounded In a buuch togotbor about threo minutes later. The wind at that timo was holding steady at about fifteen miles an hour, at times increasing to sixteen miles.

At 1:30 o'clock the yachts wore on tho port tack, uearlng tho point of Sandy Hook, On a line drawn from Fort Wadsworth to tho Navesluk lights tho Atlantic passod at 1:14:30 and tho Galatea at 1:17. The breeze was then freshening and was blowing about eighteen to twenty miles. Thero was a big Jump on the sea outsido and tho wind and water woro certainly what tho English cutter men profess to want. Tho wind was oast northeast. At 1 :40 tho Atlantic, for somo roason uot discoverable from shore, headed northwest away from the beach.

Thoy seemod to hare got into almost a calm and moved slowly. The Galatea kopt stoadlly on tho same tack and when the Atlantic again hoadod oastward tho Englishman was seen to havo a short load. Tho wlud was blowing about twoaty. Ave miles at Fort Wadsworth, but thoy locked wind down below. At 1:48:30 tho Galatoa passed Buoy 5 and the Atlantic passod it at 1 :50.

A smaller sloop was then hugging close uudar tho lee of tho Galatea. I It was thought to be tho Bedouin, but it was impossible to say definitely, as a little haze provailod outsido. At 2:10 the Galatea had run away from tho smaller yacht, and the Atlantic had also overtaken and passod her. The Atlantic was then humping her Bolf for the lightship and tho Galatea also, and it lookod 03 if sho would givo tho Englishman more than ho wauled before tho mark was turned. The yachts wero fairly Jumping over tho big rollers.

The Atlantic rouuded tho light ship at 2:35:15 and tho Galatoa 2:36:40. Thoy had a flno breeze and woro heeling over aud burying at every lurch. They wero making glorious time thou and tho race promises to bo finished early If tho wind will hold. FATAL RUNAWAY ON THE BRIDGE. The Cloved Gates Sarcs Lives, But Cause tbe Ocatb of a IIore.

A horse attached to uu express wagon owned by G. H. Cornish, of 172 East Sovonty flrst stroot, New York, was driven ovor tho bridge last evening about 7 o'clock by Bernard Llchonthai, of tho sanio address. When near the middle of tho river span the harness gave way and tho wagon running into the horse from the roar filled him with a desire to go rapidly forward. Fortunately Officer Kennoy stopped him before he wont far.

Tho harness was mended, but boforo ho had gone ton yards he was rudely Jostled by tho wagon again and ho deter mined It Bhould bo the last timo. Ho kept the tracoB tight, but ho had to gallop to do it, and tho alarm of runaway was sent along tho structure, and Officer Gleason closed the big gate at tho oxlt. The horse dashed into the gate and fell in a heap with his back otokon, while young Lltchonthal kept his seat uninjured. A bullot put the horse out of misery. There wero many carriages on the carriageway at tho time of the runaway, but thoy escaped injury by hurrying out of the gate before it was closed.

A CONSUL APPOINTED. Washington, D. June 18. Tho Pre3ldont to day appointed Vincent Laman tla, of Louisiana, to bo United States Consul at Catania, Italy. a A Fulton street car toiled sluggishly up the Sands street hill with a solitary passenger at 11 o'clock this morning.

The passenger was not a featherweight; Ho had carefully deposited ovor two hundred and sixty pounds of tissue In one of tho end seats near the rear platform. Unquestionably a Bolld business man, he read the news of the day In a lesurely and easy fashion, and presented a rather pleasing picture of contentment and prosperity. A little beyond the 8ands street turn the number of passengers increased to seven, most ot whom came from the bridge. The las of the new arrivals was not an ounce lighter than tho business man in the corner. He might readily have been taken for and probably was a former, but there were some city graces about hlra aud he looked as if he could easily afford to have somebody else do tne actual work of plowing.

It was unfortunate that in swinging round the turn the car should have given a alight lurch at tho precise momont when the farmer, to save himself, found it uecossary to plant bis heel squarely on one of the business man's most sensitive toes. With amazing rapidity the nows of tho day ceased to be of tho smallest interest. An apology had already sprung to the lips of the new comer. It was stopped by tho elaculatlon of tho tortured business man; "You big elephant 1" The farmer, so far as the apology was concornod, had had the best of Intentions, but thoy were novor oxecuted. "All the dignity of hie avoirdupois assorted ltaolf as be asked hat did you call me, sir? A big elephant," replied the business man, still ruefully caressing his toe.

The results were Instantaneous and exciting. A threat from tho farmer, a challenge from the business man and a prompt acceptance had closed the discussion, verbal hostilities giving placo at onoe to much more formidable operations. Before anybody had time to fully realize what it was all about tho affray was at an end. Two or three passagos at arms as vigorous and rapid as could bo expected from heavy weights, were followed by a scuffle during which the combatants surged wildly to and fro, dreadfully alarming the ronalnder of the passengers and not ox changing a syllable during its progress. In two minutes it was all over.

By a peculiar coincidence both had fallen so that they sat facing each other on tho floor of the car, tho soles of the shoos almost touching. Tbe business man's nose bled a little, and the farmer had a flushed and thoroughly exhausted look. The warriors were so completely out of broath that neither stirred for minuto. Ther9 aro excellent reasons for believing that noneof tho passengers had ever been treated to such a spectacle before. It might havo been questionable taste to laugh, but tho provocation was irresistible and the amueement became goneral.

Tho farmer caught the contagion first, then the business man succumbed. He was on his feet a moment later. Allow me, sir," ho said, as he smilingly oxlonded his hand and helped tho farmer to his feet. Near the City Hall the farmer left the car. Ho was exceedingly and considerately careful as he passod tho tender toe.

When ho reached the platform ho raised his hat to the business man with much good humor aud politoness and both wero heard to say: "Good day, sir." IT TOOK FRIGHT And Fatally Injured a Colored Man. The Driver Made a Gallant Effort to Stop His StarlL'd Horse, But Was Drawn Over the Dashboard. A runaway accident which may bo attended with fatal results occurred this afternoon on Washington street, noar its intersection with Fulton. A spirited bay horso attached to a light wagon was standing in front of A. M.

Stein iivory stable, at 225 Washington streot, when a heavy truck going in tbe direction of Fulton street, struck the wagon in tho rear, and in an instant the horso, which had Just been brought from the country for tho Sloin firm, Btarted off. It went toarlng down tho street utterly regardless of tho vigorous efforts of tho drivor, Barney B'ord, in the employ of Stoin to check its progress. Whon a point uoarly opposite the new Federal Building was roachod Ford was thrown from the volticlo by a sudden Jerk to ono side, the rolns ho was tightly holding literally drawing him over the dashboard. He was draggod a short distanco and loft insensible on tho ground. He was picked up and conveyed to the livery stable whoro restoratives wero applied.

Tho extent of hie injuries is not doAnitely known. Thoy were conflnod in tho main to his shoulder and the side ot his bead. Ford lives at 41 Groen lano. 1 he frightened horse was meanwhile caroorlng madly toward tho Juuotlon of Washington aud Fulton stroets, the wheols of the rattling wagon nar rowly escaping collision wilh tho numerous ve hicles that lined the sidos of the street. As it neared Fulton street Albert Carl, a colored coachman in the employ of Mr.

Lioth, of Honxou street, unaware of tho danger attempted to cross from a point opposite Kitchen's drug Btoro toward Moniaguo street. The animal struck him with full force aud hurled him upon the cobblestone pavomeut, the wheels of the wagon an instant later passing over mm. Tho horse continued to tho corner of Joralemon and Court streets where it was stopped by a young man whoso name could not be ascertained. The colored man was tnken by Officers Kelly and Gal lagher so Pltchon's drug storo, where an ambulance surgeon pronounced his injuries conousslon of tho brain and sovero cuts of tho hend and faco. Ho presented a shocking spectacle as tho bl lod streamed upward from his wouuds.

He was taken to tho City Hospital. FOUND HIS FRIEND'S ASSAILANTS And Was Hiuuelf Knocked Down While Trying to tlet a Look at Them.

Surrogate Woller, of Queens County, held court at Long Island Citv thin morning and Rdmit ted to probato the wills of Eliita Ann Nostrand, Maria AsplnwaJl and JamoV OampbetL Little Doubt that Two Lives Were Lost.

SaffftP House Employes Who Probably Perished in the Flames in Spite of Be ports to the Contrary. The fire in HaYemeyer's Greenpoint Ee flnery broke out afresh early yesterday morning. An alarm was at once sent out and was promptly responded to by the fire department. Captain Bbodes, Sergeant Thomas Baker and the reserve section of the Seventh Proclnct, immediately pro codod to tho scene, where a large crowd had already congregated. The flames broke out In the smouldering ruins, but were soon under controL The wind was blowing In a northerly direction at the time and the fireman were fearful that a spark might set the Brooklyn cooperage works on Are.

The ruins were BtlU smoking this morning. A stream of water was played on them all day. The greatest air of Becreoy prevails among the proprietors of tho refinery and thoir superintendents regarding tho two missing men, Ferdinand Weln and Lowls 8. Wilkin. This morning It was denied that either was lost.

A morning paper today attributed a statement to the night superintendent of the works that neither man had been lost Tho superintendent Is reported to havo said that Wilkin had boon heard from and that Weln was probably on on a spree. An Eaolb reporter this morning saw Weln's wlfo at her home, 114 Clay street She was completely prostrated with grief. i. is infamous," she Bald, to say that my husband la off on a spree. Iioirita sober, industrious man and never remained away from borne so long.

I do not know why they want to create the report that he was not lost. Everything goes to show that lie was. Ho was last seen on the fourth floor of the building, where he was ovorcomo by tho heat" Wilkin lived at 148 North Seoond street Tho reporter called on his relatives this mornlug and found them in a state of great grief over his absence. They claim that if he was alive he would not stsy away from them so long under the circumstances. His sister in law says that she has applied at the works for Information concerning him, but on every occasion has been turned away.

Herman Ears was one of tho men employed In the same room with Wilkin. He said this morning that snortly bofore tho Are broke out he wont for a can of beor. As he was returning to the room In which ne worked ho discovered tho flames. He called out to Wilkin to run and then rapidly doscended tho stairs, 'io save his life ho was forced to Jump from a window twenty flve feet from the ground. ne nas no doubt that Wilkin, who was atout and suffered greatly from asthma, was unablo to oscapo.

He attributes his own escapo to Jumping from the window. Wilkin was 48 years of age. This morning a force of flfty men were employed iu removing the brick and debris from the ruins. When one of Havemeyors' representatives was asked if a search was being instituted for the missing men ho ropllod that It was not, as thoy wero uot believed to bo lost It is boilovei that nothing but tbe ashes of tho two unfortunate men now remain, as the bodies must havo been completely Incinerated in the huge mass of burning sugar. Crowds of tho workmen employed in tho reflnery hung about tho ruins dur ing tho day discussing the fate of their former fel low laborers.

Tho origin of tho fire is still shrouded in mystery. Everything, however, points to thotheory of Incendi arism. Somo of tho opponents of this theory say that the lire was caused by the explosion of a gns motor, as shortly boforo tho flames burst out all tne lights in tho building were suddenly extinguished. Others claim that tho Are was caused by tho spontaneous combustion of a lot of inflammablo ma terial, whilo others still claim that it was due to the liquor boilers overflowing. The Are is supposed to havo broken out in the Btencil room, and if tbt3 is so these theories must be wrong.

Alostof the workmen employed ia tbo reAnery are socialists aud hold secret weekly meetings. All of theso, It Is well known, aro greatly embittered against tho Havemeyors Blnco the failure of tho Btrlko of last year. Thoy claim that thoy were undorpaid and not used properly. Mra. Weln, tho wife of ono of the missing men, said this morning that the feeling agalust tho Uavamoyers was very bitter.

She said that it was a shame that no Are oscapos had been provided on tho outsido of tho buildings. It was reported to day that ou tho morning of tho Are, bofore daylight, several workmen wearing red ribbons in their buttonholes mingled with tho throng viewing the fl'imes. At the approach of dawn thoy removed the ribbons. It Is believed that shortly after the flro broke out a meeting of the socialists was called' and that out of sheer bravado Bomo of thorn donued this rod Insignia of their lawless orrtor. A number of the workmon were heard discussing the Are In a neighboring saloon later on Saturday morning.

Several of thorn said that they woro glad tho flro had occurred, as it would leave tho Havemeyors out ot pocket, "whilo we," said ono, "will bo back at work w.lthlu a month." Fire Marshal Beujamlu Lewis told a reporter last night that he Intended to summon four of the work men In the building at the timo of tho flro aud Investigate its origin. Ho Intends to havo a chemical examination mado to test the theory of combustion. llo believes that tho actual loss would be about and that tho insurance was 1710.000. The Fire Marshal thinks that the two missing men may have been burned to deajb. Bo aid nofrcare to give an expression of opinion as to the orlgjn of tbo Are until he had made a thorough Investigation.

It is likely that tho Committee on Now York Terminal Facilities will be directed to report thoir plans to the full Board when tho details have boon decided upon Instead of going ahead with any changeB. This is in deferenco to tho public sentiment that such an lmportaut subject Bhould be discussed by the Board before final adoption.

Ex Aldennan Dunne ropllod that if the money should bo provided they would see to it that tho Board took care of the section of tho city In question. William H. E.

There was a sensaaion in Soutnhold Saturday evening when Miss Booth was missed from her home.

About 8 o'cloc Mr. Booth received a telegram lik3 this: Long Island Citv, Juno n. Tour daughter is safe with me. J. v.

The depot agent at Southold was sure the young lady had not taken the train there. The excitement sub3idod, howevor, after the recolpt of of Mr.

George Zipp has got his license to sell boer and furnish amusements while his customers drink. To night ho will celebrate his victory by a concert, at which soveral prominent singing societies hare volunteered to appear, in conjunction with Contorno's baud. Mr. Zipp explained this afternoon that the polico had prevented him from giving an entertainment and his license bad been refused by the Excise Commissioners after they had obtained an opinion from tho Corporation Counsel that it was illegal to issue him one. Ho added: "I took a bill to the Legislature and both Houses passed It.

It is now in tho hands of tho Governor for his signature. I went to Albany with my counsel and Governor Hill told me tho bill was unnecessary; that tho Excise Commissioners had no right to rofuss to give me a license, for tho bill of 16112, prohibiting amusoment3 with beor, had boen repealed last year." Mr. Hirsh, counsel for Mr. Zipp, looked the matter up, and found that chapter 281, Laws of 1802, on which the Corporation Counsel had rendered his decision advorso to Mr. Zipp, had boen repealed by chapter 593, subsection 37, of tho Laws of 1886.

There is little wonder that the Corporation Counsol overlooked tho latter section for the act repeals no less than 1,000 old laws. It is bolieved that no one has ever read all of chapter 593, Laws of 1866, except tho Govornor. Tho repealing act only affects cltlos outsido of New York City.

He was married threo years ago, aud by his sulcldo, two children, Eva, 8 years, and Gertrude, 10 months old, are rondored fatherleBS. According to the statement of those who know him Intimately, ho was of a morose disposition, whilo his wife was of a very gentle nature. Ho continually scoldod her and on many occasions had threatened to do her bodllv harm. Less than a month ago ho went to llvo at 160 Itaymond street, which is a three story frame house, opposite the City Hospital.

From Mrs. Jackson, who lives on tho second floor, ho hired ono ot hor throe rooms, a small back hall room. On Saturday afternoou when Poolo went homo he was in an unusually bad frame of mind. He spoke to no one, but going to his trunk took out his pistol, a sevou chambered revolver of 22 caliber, and com menced to clean it Mrs. Jackson asked him what he wanted with a pistol, and ho repllod that she would Drobablo And out boforo vory long.

Ke re mained lu tho house brooding all day yesterday, and when his wife spoke to him he would not an. awer her. Toward ovanlng, however, he Informed hor that ho had made up his mind to kill hor and the children. Tho reason that he gave for his pro posed act was that his family was growing too large, and that he was tired of supporting It. no went to bed at 10 o'clock, but his wirosatup until 12:30, with Mrs.

Jackson, being afraid to go near tho man who eho bolieved was crazy. Mrs. Jacksou finally induced hor to go to her room and Ihon rotlrod herself. The landlady got up o'clock this mornlug, prepared breakfast and was putting up Poole's lunch whon sho hoard a pistol shot in his room. She opened the door of the apartment at ouceand Baw Pools standing over his wife, who was sitting on tho edgo of the bed with tho youngest child in hor arms.

Ho had his pistol his hand and, whon asked what he was doing, repllod: "1 am going to kill them all up." You muat be crazy," said Mra. Jackson, givo me tho pistol." I will do nothing of tbo sort," was the reply, I am uo moro crazv than you are. Just take a look at me aud seo if I am crazy." Mrs. Jackson attempted tc tako the pistol away from him, but did not succeed. She was Informed that if sho did not mind what sho was doing she would got shot horself.

Then the frightoued woman ran to tho front of tho house throw up the window aud called for help. There were sovoral men passing at tho time, but not one of them took any notico of her. As sho was going down stairs, with tho intention of looking for a policoman, she hoard anothor shot and, turning round, saw Mrs. Poolo fail forward on hor face on top of tho child sho had boon holding. The othor girl was silting quietly on a col formed of two chairs and a trunk.

Mrs. Jack sou ran Into tho stroot and a few blocks away found Officer Thompson, of tho Myrtle avonuo station. The two returnod quickly to the house. They met Poolo in tho hallway. Ho was staggering and hold his pistol lu his right hand.

Blood was streaming from his mouth and oars, and ho had Just stiongth enough left to got outside the door, when ho foil down near the cellar window and died iu a few seconds. Mrs. Poolo was found lying on tho floor and blood was running from her left sldo. Tho baby was near her aud was crying, as If in pain. When Ambulance Surgeon Cooke arrlvod ho took mother and child to the City Hospital.

An examination of Poole's body showed that ho had shot himself twice in the neck and that ho had cut hlmsoif threo or four times In the some place with a knife, which was evldontly too dull for his purpose. Mrs. Smith, who lives on tho first floor, who was alarmod by tho shooting, ears that lmmodiatoly ofter Mrs.Jackson left tho house Poole Jumped from the window of his room Into tho yard aud then wont down to the cellar, Iho entrance of which is outsido tho house. Ho romalued thero a minute or so and then camo out and wont up to his room. He came down almost immediately, entered the cellar again and then sho heard two shots fired in quick succes sion.

When the cellar was examined a lot of blood was found ou tho floor, and also a threo bladed Ian. cot stained with blood. It was thought at first that tho child Gertrude had boen shot, but whon she wns ox amlnod at tho hospital no wound was found ou hor. Tho wounded woman is In no Immediate danger. Tho bullot had entered tho left side below the heart, but It had not beon ascertained whether it had struck tho lung or not.

Keeper Magulre, while examining tho body at tho found tied around the neck a bootlace to which was attached a small bag made of cloth. It was old and worn and contained a piece of paper about four Inches squaro, which was folded up into a email compass and was markod nil over with strange sigus. It was evidently a charm such as many negroes in tbe South are aooustomed to carry about them. A MESOKIAL TO GOVERNOR HILL. Members of the Board of Education Favor GriNWold's Bill.

The members of the Board of Education have united iu a memorial to Governor Hlli, asking him to sign Senator Griswold's bill to restore thoir three year terms of office, which will be forwarded at once, and sotting forth rensons already detailed. It is explained on behalf of tho Board that no repre sentative appeared bofore tho Govornor bocause it was not Buspocted that tho Corporation Counsel would oppose It, Aside from the Mayor's own promlso this belief was adduced from the fact that tho commission which fixed up tho consolidation act, aud which Included Mr. Jenks, Inserted tho threo yoar amondment, and while tho consolida tion codification was not passed this year the action remaiued as evidenco of the lutentlon. As semblymau Graham conforrod with tho Mayor Saturday and will lot tho Govornor know tho result. It is pretty doubtful if the Mayor can appoint moro than fifteen men this year anyway, as tho impres sion is waxing strong that ho dropped the wrong sot of men last year, and that the men who wero booked to go out this year under his reckouing cannot be budged.

WHERE THE LIGHTNING PLATED HAVOC.

1 Ih His Customary Fashion. Breezy Fe Calls Xajor Whitney a Weak Kneed Old Slater and Doesn't Spare that Fatn erly Old Snnl, Griswold. That breezy, interesting and energetic per son, ex Senator Albert Daggett, was found in his office In New York, this morning, and questioned in regard to tho rumors which prevail about him. Tho statement has been made recently that ho has retrieved his shattered fortunes, paid the major part oi his debts ond set out on a new era of prosperity in the Bteok broking buslnosg, under tho financial tutorship of 8. V.

White, whose campaign for Con. gross he successfully' generalod last FalL He said On that subject I nave noting to say, except that I hope berore tho year is out to be able to satisfy all who have any pecuniary Interest In mo. My frlouds know this, my enemies would not acknowledge it if they did know it, and tho old grannies who make a living by attonding to other people's business will be shorn of part of their moans of likelihood when It is an accomplished fact" Having paid this tribute to his friends and foos the ex Senator was led to couvorse with his usnal frankness on tho political outlook for next Fall. I havo been too busy to give very much attention to politics lately, and 1 hardly know what tho political situation is. All the partlos seem to mo to havo enough on hand to keep them busy this Fall, the Democrats wilh tho scandals which havo already cropped out and those which will, if tfifo Eagle will only turn on its olectrio light as some of its recent articles seem to foreshodow that it will; tho Republicans with thoir factional quarrels, which.

tike tsanquo's ghost, will not down, and tho labor mon, not bocauso of tho paucity of their numbers. but because of thOBroodof their leaders who appear to oo in tno movement, uot for the bonoAt of organized labor, but, llko the ntaiVon d'orc Fenian leaders, entirely for themselves. If there is anything left ot the Homo Rulo principle Instituted by ox Mayor low in our city government it would require a more patient soorcher than old Diogenes to Aud it out. but men you know our citizens aro a benevolent crowd and long suffering, and it may be that they havo not yet had enough of tho government as carried ou by our truly good and benovolout as well as weak knood old sister who now occupies the cnair of tho Chief Magistrate ot our great city. Ono thing Is certain, that in tho palmiest day of tho old Twoed ring the Old Man of New York was nevor moro Ormly iutronched that in our great boss who whittles his stick by day In Willougnby street and holds up tho Garnold buiidlug by night.

It was gonornlly relieved that Tweod was personally dis honest; it is generally believed that McLaughlin Is personally honest; probably both beliefs are cor rect, dui so lar as the toxpayor ia concerned it mnke3 little difference to him whether great lp.ider Is honost or dishonost. Uo must realize that tbore is not a sluglo shining dollar which glimmers iu mo sunlight or electric light which has uot boon scoopod in by tho horde of reformers who aro now busily engaged in plundering iho city treasury. I tinnK 1 shall havo to mako a single exooption to my romarks on tho subject of our weak kneed old sister the Mayor, for I havo rend in tho columns of the Eaole that In ono ho did stand up against tho party counsel and insist on having an honest award of tho streot cleaniug contract Still, Repub licans nave not so much to blame these Democrats for. fliey would never be able to increase tho expenses of the city. by lo, though Hi advised means, sueh a3 tho Increased pay of the polieomon without tbe assistance of Just such grannies iu our own party.

When Mayor Low filled tho ox ecutivo chair in Brooklyn, and I was endeavoring to back him up at Albany. All those schomos for increased compensation woro beforo tho Logislaturo, and all got ts far as tbo Senato Chamber, and no further. Tho same old threadbare argument wns used then as is used this year in their fcivor, namely, tnat thoy were not assaults on tho theory of home rulo, that (hey woro not legislative but a mere authorization convoyod to tho local power. There wa3 no protouso that 3iic' i logisla Ion was demanded by tho nutliuritioi whom tho people had Bolecled to dntorinino what was best for tbe city, nor is there any such pretonao uow. Tho Ropubll ca i party, through its Sonator who was solocted to stand up against Just this sort of legislation must accept its full share of tho responsibility of tlieso unwise and ill tlmod expenditures of tho people's money.

I know that a great many p.ioplo seek to excuse Senator Griswold for these lapses iuto weakness by saying that ho Is a good, fatherly old soul, who could not boxr to hurt anybody's feelings, but Sonators ought to be mado of firmer stuff. Tho policeman who gots $1,000 per yoar is bettor paid than the averago oltlzon. Mr. Griswold is rich a well as good. It would have beon better for his party, If not for himself, if he had put his hand In his pocket and increased tho salary of tho much abused and badly paid policomou out of its own capacious depths.

However, the old gentleman has said in tho past that he wanted to round up his political caroor lu tho Souato, nod I havo seen no member of tho Republican party who does not feol convinced that Mr. Griswold bai done it" What changes will there bo this Fall In tho political geography of Brooklyn? You know that this Is an off yoar In all but local politics, nevertheless, tho campaign will bo an important one as we havo a mayor to elect If tho Ropublieans nominate a candidate for mayor whom the citizens believe to bo the kind of material that will withstand all efforts of unthinking politicians and demagogues to increase the naturally large oxponsos of our city government, ho ought and probably will be tho next mayor. What part the labor elemout may play lu local politics it is hard to dotormlDO. On Its faco it would appear as if any Independent movomeni indulged in by them would work for greater injury to tho Democratic than the Republican party, but such movomonts In B. ooklyn gouorally poter out boforo election, and I soo no ovi.lenco now of any strong organization, such as was shown in tho Inst Mayoralty contest in Now York.

If tho Goorge theories of tho ownership of laud get much further hold on tho masses of tho people who have no land, it will break up, to a groat oxtent, party lines, and probably compel Republicans and Democrats to Bland shoulder to shoulder for the purpose of crushing out such a heresy." FOUND HIS EASY CHAIR OCCUPIED Whon ho Bctarncd from a Stroll Yesterday Afternoon. Mr. John Devenish, of 108 Newell street, took a short walk on Sunday morning and on re turning with an appetite for his dinner found John T.

Which Has Already Caused Several Failures, Foreign Adricos and tho Operations of the Bulls Serionsly Agitating the Mar ket. The oponing of tho New York Coffee Exchange this morning was the most excited In Its history. The limited space allowed for tho clorka and customers in tho board, at tho Junction of Peart and Beaver streets, was crowded to its utmost capacity with an oxcitod throng, anxious to reach tho brokers with orders or to receive from them tho result of transactions already effected. On tbe floor almost every brokor outsido tho bear clique had largo ordors to sell and awaltod anxiously for tho first price. Rio coffee broke 140 points on Havre nows of A fall of 8 francs, aud also bocauso of an uneasy feeling among tho bull speculators.

Tho market was demoralized during tho ontire morning, and In their efforts to steady prices tbe bears put tbe market up twenty points.

To fall to day makeB a decline of uoarly 3 cents sinco Friday morning. The market was erging on a penic and rumors of failures were freely circulated, but could not bo confirmed.
