Bobert Atwood, perhaps tho most noted prisoner In the Kentucky penitentiary, was pardoned yesterday by Governor Blaokburn after serving 6 years, 3 months and 6 days.

Atwood was convicted for forgery, largo amounts being obtained by bogus paper he had presented to Louisville banks. He camo of a good family, and while public opinion was for a long time against him, of late it has boon in Mb favor. WEATHER ItEPOBT. 8EC0BD OF THE THBBMOMKTER. Tba following 1b the record of tho thermometer as kept said '1 waa Informed that Mr.

Chapman was enable to do his work. If a man Is not earning hl money I cannot rote for bis retention, I cannot keep a melton man In office because he belongs to the same party that I do. President Massey gave me his pledge that tho man we appointed is capable of doing the work of both men. I have his word for it, and if he haa lied to mo I shall vote for the man's removal." "It is a moat indecent thing all round," chimed in Graham. "I sent for the Head of the Department and put the question to him, he eaid the man was not of much uso," contiued Mr.

Hazzard. "That's Dady 1" shouted Graham. "I did not say it was Dady and I don't think the work required was in his department. The understanding was that Chapman could not make 'up the map for the apportionment of sewer asBessmenta; I have no feeling against Chapman." "But Massey did, becauso ho wanted hla brothor appointed," replied Graham. "We have got enough of these heelers around here now, without going way up to Oswego County for them." "I am surprised at the language used by Alderman Graham," continued Mr.

Hazzard, "I've asked the other Commissioners to go to work with me but they won't do it." "But Massey gets tn every one he wants, and every one he don't want 1b put out," complained Graham. "They come in here," said Commissioner Hazzard, referring to Commissioners Worth and Massey, "with a list of names all made np and put them through. I am not a politician." "But," said Graham, "those other two fellows are politicians, and you do as they say." "That is not trne," insisted CommlBslonor Hazzard. "It's no use for yon to talk that way to me, for it don't scare worth a cant." "There havo been occasions," said tho Alderman, "when my blood boiled, but it never boiled as it does now. Here Is this fellow Massoy ready to Jump in with hiB brother and make theso apppolntmonts and they are mado." At this point Superintendent Dady waa summoned to the board room and oross examined by Auditor Amraorman.

DADY INTERROGATED. "I want to question you," eaid the Auditor, as to the competency and faithfullneBs of Mr. Chapman." "I don't know what he was removed for said Dady hoaitatingly. "That is not the question," interrupted Graham, "Was he not always faithful and competent 7" "I voted to discharge Chapman because the head of tho bureau reported that ho was not competent, said Mr. Hazard.

"Mr. Massey wanted to put his brothor in, and I wanted to sooure the appointment of George il'inslow. The work is lying nndone. Yesterday Mr. Massey brought In a resolution appointing his brothor and it was adopted with the understanding that ho should do the work of both tho men removed." Was not Chapman faithful and competent and oould you get along without hfm 1" again asked Graham.

Well" said Dady, smiling, "I suppose you could get along without any of us." I don't mean that," said Graham, Tho only trouble with Chapmon was that before the election he had charge of the pay rolls on which the names wore duplicated, but those were clerical errors, otherwise he was a good clerk, faithful and attentive." After the row Commissioner Hazzard said he voted for Massey's appointment becauso he belloved him to be a good man, and there was no ubo of two men doing the work of one. His course had no political significance, and ho thought ho had aoted with entiro propriety. Alderman Waters complained to Commisslonar Hazzard of the necessity of street repairs In tho Seventeenth Ward, and Bald it waa a outrage they were not repaired. Commissioner Hazzard Baid ho had as yet beon unable to got his colleagues to act with him. that the aiSOOmuiiUre VL 1LD UUIUUJJ urguuiZiftlilu'JU ITUlUil has ruled this city, and whoso single and dosporato purpose is to maintain its abominable domination, la an occasion of rejoicing to all good citizens.

Kings County at Syracuse. From the Graphic The fidelity of the Kings County delegation to tbo fortunes of Tilden and Robinson is something remarkable even in tha history of Demooratio politics. On two different occasions in the Syracuse Convention the members of that delegation had the opportunity of naming one of their own fellow citizens as tho Domocratlo candidate for Governor. Boob" McLaughlin, for himself and his followers, each time refused tho proffered orown. Tho thirty six votes of Kings County were tho balance of power.

If Kings County Joined with Tammany, Tammany would carry the convention. If it remained with Hobineoa, Tammany would be beaten and Robinson renominated. It stood firm and BobinBon waa renominated. As was pointed out in these columns yesterday, Slooum was distasteful to tho leaders of the Brooklyn Democracy. It was no aaorifioe to rejoot the overtures of Tammony Halh based on hie nomination.

But with Jacobs the case was very different. The Senator is on the boat of termB with the Kings County leaders. He would "listen to reaBon," in fact, would do Just what the leaders wanted. And yet the Kings County delegation refused to bait. Ita members declined to be traitors evon If by so doing they could seat their own man in tho executive chair at Albany.

They were right. Had they done Kelly's bidding in one regard ho would have asked them to do it in all. Tilden and Robinson will be mora ungrateful than the ordinary run of selfish politicians if tbey forget McLaughlin and his delegates, to whose fidelity they owe their eucceso. The present combination of Demoorats and Republicans that rules Brooklyn 1b perfectly safe now. If Cornell is Governor, "Jakey" Worth will protect it; while if Robinson succeeds, Boss McLaughlin will sea that no harm is dono to it.

King County's WorSs. From the Telegram. Kings County has played the part it sought to play In the nomination. It has been tho pivot of the convention's action. It had the deciding voice in tho nomination.

The nomtnation'has no been, perhaps, what those who did not know the make up of the Kings County delegation, or the insorutablo motive of ltsllead era, might havo expected from It. Senator Jacobs, being made temporary and permanent Chairman of tho convention, was estODprd lrom bocoming tho nominee for Governor or Lieutenant Governor. The Brooklyn managers, also, in resisting the temptation to nominate another Brooklyn man for Governor, may bo safely eupposod to have had their wits about them. Tho Kings Couuty delegation comes home from Syracuso with a pleasant viBion ot loaves and fiBhes before them. It is yet to be seon what vast lntereBta hinge upon Judge Church's "pivot." John Kelly.

(From the Express Tammany organ. Mr. John Kelly has made a great personal sacrifice for tho Bake of Demooratio principles and municipal Integrity In consenting to the use of hla name as candidate for Governor. He had taken a stand. He had defied tho unscrupulous and arrogant Ring who undertook to rule thiB city in violation of law and had romoved faithful officers without cause.

Ho had risked everything in tho issue for Democratic principles. There waa nothing left for him to do but to accept the consequences of his act. Aud he is too brave a man to Bhirk the responsibility of his course, and too magnanimous to allow another to bear the burden which belongs on his own shoulders. He has not sought tho office, and does not expeot to be elected to it but he does want to break down now and forover the corrupt and unscrupulous Tilden Ring in this State, and to aBHort the great fundamental principles of municipal self government in affairs. And this he will accomplish.

ACCIDENTS. William Mathews, aged 23 years, while working on the bark Gulppo Mason. lying at the Atlantic Dook Basin, yesterday fell from the deck to the hold, and received serious injiirieB about the head and body. Ho waa removed In the ambulance to his residence, No. 80 Hamilton avenue.

Mr. E. V. Suedeker, aged (10, who is tha proprietor of tho livery HtabJe at No. 480 Clermont avenue, while working around tho elevator on tho second floor yoster day afternoon, fell through the hatchway to the firet floor, a distance of twelvo feet.

Ho waa stunned by the fall, but Dr. Keep, who was promptly summonod, pronounced his injuries not serious. Ho was takon to his residence, No. 5G Portland avenue. John Dailoy, aged 45, while working at tho depot of tho Prospnct Park and Coney Island Railroad yesterday, had his right hand caught in a piece of machinery and badly orushed.

O'HARA. The Contest of the Will OoistiiiHPtl. Further Testimony as to the Testatrix's Meutal Condition and Habits The Visit to Eome The Alleged Peculiar Conduct. The hearing in the contest against the probate of the will of tho late Mrs. Mary O'Hara, widow of Peter O'Hara, was continued this morning in the Surrogate's Court boforo Judge Abram H.

Dailey. Mrs. O'Hara died in Juno last, and left a fortune of about $75,000. Her husband died sovoral years previously. He was a well known stone cutter, and resided in Scher rnerhorn street, where Mrs.

O'Hara died. Tho next of kin to Mrs. O'Hara wera two granddaughters, Mary O. and Mary A. O'Hara, who are cousins, their fathers being two of Mrs.

O'Hara's sons, whoso deaths precedod her own by several years. The granddaughters aro young ladies, aud one of them Ib eaid to be tho possessor a considerable fortune in her own right. Mrs. O'Hara left them $2,000 each and devised tho balance of her os tato to charitable purposes. Tho will is unique In that.

Ono bulk of tho property is left to three trustees, viz: Rov. Father Magulre, pastor of St. Paul's R. C. Church; Judge Alex.

McCue and Dr. William H. Dudley, who was Mrs. O'Hara'sfamily physician. The objects to which tho trustees wore to devote tbo money are not stated in tho will, but it is understood that it was her desire that It should be used to educate young men for the priesthood.

Tho will is contested by tho two granddaughters, on tho ground of undue influence. The property oonsists largely of bonds and socurlties of various Borte. Mr. James C. Bergen has beon appointed a collector by the Surrogate to collect interest, as it comes duo.

The case was before the court last Friday, and after Borne testimony had been taken an adjournment was taken until te day. Morris I'earuall, and Starr Hooker and Charles Jones, appoared for the contestants, and Edgar sr. Cullen and Judge McCue for tho will. Tho first witness called by tho contestants to day was MOT. LIZZIE OBAFT, who testified that sho had resided in Brooklyn for six years, aud during the Summer had been spending tho Boason at Guilford, Bhe was acquainted with Mrs.

O'Hara during that lady'B lifetime for seven or eight years; she met Mrs. O'Hara for the first timo at her residence in Schermerhorn street; Bliss Mary Augusta O'Hara was afraid of the witness, aud it was upon hor invitation that she went to Mrs. O'Hara's residence; she called to ana Miss Augusta, but found her out, and was shown up luto Mrs. O'Hara's room, whero she waited an hour or two; the wituess had never met tho old lady before; Mrs. O'Hara talked about "her daughter;" the witness noticed very many things iu the old lady that wero peculiar; for Instance, Mro.

Craft said that sho thought Miss Augusta resembled her father, and also looked like her grandmother, Mrs. O'Hara tho old lady replied, "Sho does not look a bit like her father or like me," or words to that effect; shortly after, when tho BUbject was again alluded to, Mrs. O'Hara assented to the suggestion of resemblance; this was in the evening, and Mrs. O'Hara frequeuty Bpoke of her daughter; she constantly changed the conversation baok and forth in a random sort of way. (The daughter referred to was Cecilia, Mrs.

O'Hara's only daughter, who had died Bome time previously.) Q. How long did you remain there A. Until the next morning, after breakfast. Q. Did you Btay aa long as you intended 7 A.

I did not. Objected to. Q. WaB thoro any reason why you left the next morning was there anything said or done by Mrs. O'Hara which caused you to leave? A.

Yea; the manner in which Bhe talked and conducted herself runnlngabout the house during tho night, and kept mo awake aU night with my cousin I became alarmed. Q. Did you see the old lady at any other time A. Yes; I called upon flfiss Augusta. with my husband in 1873 to 1874 I Baw MrB.

O'Hara in her Bitting room on tho second floor Bhe insisted upon our going up into her room, and I at first declined as my husband had never Been her bafore she insisted, and said we must spend the evening we said we had some business to attend to, and she said that made no difference, we must stay, as ehe had many things to show ub we went up stairs, and ehe spoke frequently about her daughters; I think sho spoko at least fifty times about hor daughter Cecilia; her manner was different from whatit was when I had seen her before then she was very sober and sad and her manner was quite disagreeable on this latter occasion she was jovial and merry Bnd very pleasant; I noticed Bigns of intoxication during this last interview in tho Spring of 1874 I had another interview with her, at her house in Schermerhorn street I saw her for an hour or two In tho parlor I went to the house with MIbs Augusta and went away with her MIbb Augusta went upBtairs to paok her olothes, and I remained talking with tho old lady; Mrs. O'Hara began talking again about hor daughter Cecilia, and showed me her picture alluding to Mies Auguola the old lady Baid she did not llko to have her practice her musio in the house, bb it annoyed the neighbors; then aha referred to her daughter Cecilia again, and aaid she was a beautiful performor and could play and sing very finely, but never practlcod a note she alao spoke about her Cecilia's beauty and said she had a very fine figure "She never wore corsets," the old lady said, "but it was not because Bhe did not havo them, aa Bhe had a pile bo high" indicating with her hand a pilo four or five feet high. Mr. Edgar M. Cullen, of counsel for the will, said he would like to know whether that was an nnreasonable quantity of corsets for a lady to have.

He allowed he Was not an expert in the matter. At thiB lnterviow tho old lady spoke about going to Saratoga; she said she thought she would take a cottage and would take Miss Augusta with her; and Bhe thought she would take Father Maguiro then she thought she would board at the Union Hotel from all the facts and all the conversation the witness had with Mrs. O'Hara she formed the opinion that the old lady was not of Bound mind. Tho anBwer was objeoted to and etricken ont. Tha question was nut in several waya.

When aBked to state what facts and circumstances had led her to this conclusion, tho witness sold what she had already told, and muoh more of tha same kind which she could not recollect. Tbero waa no cross examination. MBS. MAKY FA.OAN was the next witness. Sho testified she resided at No.

17 Adams street, and at one time had resided with Mrs. O'Hara, ond waa in her employ for five years from the 17th of Soptembor, 1868, until the day Mrs. O'Hara sailed for Romo. On tho 5th of December following MrB. O'Hara'B return from Europe, the witness went to live with her again; she Baid Father O'Hara, of Syracuse, and Bishop Lynch, of South Carolina, were going to Rome with her; I used to see Father O'Hara at the house several times during the year; there was one room on the upper floor which was called Father O'Hara's room, and was never used by anyone else except once; on the night before Mrs.

O'Hara sailed for Bome, there were a good many people, friends and relatives, at the hoo.se she told me once before she went to Europe that Judge McCue was coming to make her will, and that Jqdge McCue wanted to wait until Father O'Hara camo, as he was an honorable man on the evening before Bhe went to Europe, Father O'Hara, Judge McCue and MrB. O'Hara wore in the back room, and the old lady eaid they were there to make her will the next day the Baid ehe was going to the office to sign her will and somo papers ehe wanted Father O'Hara to go with her, but he had gone off, and Father Magulre said he would go with her, and she replied "all right." q. How soon after her return to Brooklyn did yon see her 7 A. On the evening of her retnrn at Father Maguire'a house: Bhe was under the influence of liquor, but could talk she spoke to me, and I could understand her I saw her come into tha bouse from the street, and Father Magulre and Fathor O'Hara came in after she leaned a little perhaps against the wall with her hand at times after her return sho was more cross than she had been before, and aoted differently she drank more after be came baok than before; Bhe said Bhe did not drink bourbon, bnt drank brandy, and gin Father Magulre was frequently at the house ehe said he called on business Father Magulre, Mr. John O'Hara and Kate Monagan used to write lettera for her In my time hor habit was to be on the second landing, ond when any one called I would tell her and Bhe would tell me to say whether Bhe was ont or not not ehe nover gave me Instructions not to admit Father Maguiro; if ehe was not engaged he would coma in, but if she wsb engaged ho would go away.

The wltneBS knew Mrs. O'Hara was intoxicated New Year's eve, 1863 9 she was sick that night, and was taken care of by Miss GnBsle O'Hara and tho witness. On tho cross examination the witness said it was in 1SC0 that Mrs. O'Hara went to P.ome, on the Now Year's night when Bhe was sick she had beon receiving her friends in her room and had refreshments there. Owing to tbo absence of ex Jndgo Morris, who was to examine some of the witnesses, the cose was ad lonrnod until next "Pueadajr.

when all flay Trill be, taken. The Couflrmatfon of Bond's Bail way Job by Two Judges. Was the General Term of the Supreme Court Lawfully Constituted When ths Decision was Announced The Appeal fn Court To day. Messrs. Stillman, Bartow aud Hewlett, corn, rniasloners appointed by tho Supremo Court, recommended the conatrnction of tho KJnga County Elevated Hallway on the leading avonuca of the city.

The motion to confirm their report waa mado at the General Term of tho Supreme Court, at Ponghiecpalo, on May 16. 1870. No decision reudored, and tho court vria adjourned to July 18. On June 13, Juatioo Gilbert, a member of tho General Term, went to Europe, and oa July 18 Jtutloos Bamar and Dyaman were alone present on the reassembling of the Oeneral Term. The report of the commiaelonera waa then confirmed by as tices Dytmtm and Gilbert, Justice Barnard diuentlag.

A motion to yacate tho order confirming tho report waa mado this morning In the General Term of the Supreme Court, Justice Barnard presiding, and Justices Pratt and Dykman THE ARGUMENT. Mr. E. M. Cullen for the motion and on behalf of property owners argued that, as Judge Gilbert waa In Europe, he could tako no part In the decision.

The confirmation of the report must bo mado by tha Goneral Term of tha Supremo Court. Tho Juew ticee of the court wore not the court. A court was. tlie yrtsenco of a Bufflclent number of the cmbere of such a body regularly convened, in as authorized place, at an appointed lime, engaged In the full and regular of ita functions. The ludgo or Judges wlion duly convened.

(Bouvh r's Lew Dictionary, page 373, voL l.J A Judge of the Supreme Court, like any othor officer when acting out of court, la an officer of limited Jurisdiction. Hence, It was held that an order made by a Justice at chamben was void. Danga va. Soldsn, 13 Howard, Pr. pa.

370.) Courte could only be held at the times and place appointed therefor, under the statute, or at times and ulACve to which regular terms had been adjourned. Northup TB. 1'ooplc, 37 203. Birmingham Foundry vs. Hatfield, 43 N.

224. Oould va. Bonneli, 69 X. 134. Sections 2M and of the Code of Civil Procedure, provided how Oeneral Terms should be appointed to bold.

The neit two sections were aa follows Section 22. If a presiding justice la not present at tho time aud placo appointed for holding a Goneral Term, the associate Justice prent, hiving tho shortest time to servo, or If two are present who haro tho aanio time to serve, tho elder of them must act aa presiding justice until a presiding Justice attends. If only one Goueral Term Justice ia prtsent, bo may ee lect one or two Justices of the Supreme Court to hold with him the General Term until two General Terra Jusiicoe attend. Section Where only two General Term Justice aro present at a Oonoral Term, and one of them is not qualified to sit upon tho hearing of a cause upon tho calendar thereof, the othor may salect any Jiirttice of the Supremo Court to sit with him upon the hearing of that cause as if the disqualified Justice waa absent. TOO PALPABLE.

The flirt section cited to show what might bo re gardod aa too palpabie for argumont that a Justice' oould not take part in holding a General Term unlets presont. Under Section 82i, two of the Judges could hold a valid General Term; but under the express tArma of the aection, unions two agreed to pronounce a decision, a reargiuuent must bo ordered. The decision or determination waa an act of the Court, and by the Cods of Procedure a determination must be made by the Court as constituted at the time of determination. No decision could havo been made between May and July 18, because during such period no court competent rendor a decision was In If tho opinion or determination of Justice Gilbert waa formed prior to June 19, when he loft this oouutry, such opinion ordetermla atlou had no legal force. Assume ail the Judges lisA agreed at that time to confirm the report, would It be pretended that such determination would bind ths members of the court until au actual decision was mad and ontered at a term of the court, or that the Judges would not have been at liberty to make a contrary determination when the court convened.

At b4sr, the determination of Judgo Olibort was his opinion on June 19. 'A'hvo renpon Jenta were enVUWd not to hla opinion on Juno 1, but to his determination on July IS Id court. The only effect of the opinion of Juno was ITS PBODABLR INFLUENCE on the JusUoea' final determination in court on July If. That waa entirely a mattur of speculation. In Corning vh.

Slosson, 10 N. p. oji, whero ono of tha three Judges who composed the court when ths decision was mado did not hear tho argument. It was hold that the order was valid. The court held, however, that If tha thrm Judges present at the time the ordor wis direotod could not iogally hold a court for the purposo of deciding the motion, the order was void.

This decided that the determination mu.Ht bo made by the oourt and that tbj ci.urt could only lx; held by tbw Judges presont. The court presumed that tbo two Judged presont at tbo hearing and decision concurred ia the decUlon and almi that they had consulted with tbo absent Judgo, but It was not suggested by the court or couudel that thu third Judge not present at the dctormination could talre part In It or give it validity. It might be urged that tho court aa hold ou July Id waa a legal court, and hence could mako a valid order. Thai was truo If two Judges concurred, but tho fact that thoy did not concur appeared on tho record, aud Im tjuch case tho provision of tho code waa mandatory a reargument niut be ordered. So in Oaklor vs.

Aspin wall. 3, p. r48, a Judgment of the" Court was vacated, bt cauat; it ira? ujade to by affidavit that the judgment wa rendered by thr vote of a judge disqualified, although no dissent was cipres.i.'d at tha public promulgation of the decision, aud a utliolent number of qualified jubticee to render a valid deci.loa took part therein. An order was entered by direction r.f the Court amending tbo minutes of tho General Term at Pouffhkoepsio on July IB, by stating that the llou. J.

W. Gilbert waa not present at that Court, that Jubtlce Dykuian read au opiuion In favor of atfirmiug tho report for which Mr. Justice Barnard dissented; that Mr. Justice Gilbert sent to tbo chief Justice a declaration or etalomeut In writing that the said report of the C'ouiinlrisiouura tjhould be alurmed aud that there was uo written coa rnrrrnce of JUBtleo Gilbert In the opinion written by Justice Ilykman, and no personal consultation of either of tho parties with Judge Gilbert previous to or on July IB, 1S70, In the matter. The motion to sot aside tbo order confirming tho report ia doutod.

Mr. L' Hommedien preeeuted a Bories of resolutions indorsing the ticket placed in nomination at Saratoga, and in moving their adoption said ho believed tho action of the Democracy at Syracuse would go very far to throw the election Into the hands of the Republicans. Mr. Howard 0. Conrady In seconding the resolutions said the platform adopted at the Saratoga State Convention was broad enough for any man who loved tho Union to stand npon.

Applause. He believed tha ticket would be elected by a vory largo and overwhelming majority, for it was true, as Sonator Conkllng had said, that the solid South only required seven additional votes in tho eloctoral college to throw the Government fnto the hands of the party that had already tried to destroy it. That, however, he did not think would ever be dono, for he believed Cornell would be elected by a majority of at least 20,000. Tho resolutions woro adopted by a rising vote, and three cheers were given for tho State tloket. A CAM PAIOU WIGWAM.

An ex Brooklyn Doctor and Long Island Medioal College Graduate Arrested Iu New York for Stealing a Horse and Bngtnr in Ulster County nnfl Sent Thither for Trial. Jnstioa Bixby, at tho Jofforson Marhot Polico Court, Now York, this morning, disposed of tho case of an alleged horse thief in so summary a manner that tho squad oflaw yors who appeared for the prisoner worn rather taken aback. It appears that on tho night of the 22d of last month a bay mare, with wagon and harness, valued altogether at about $700, were stolen from the barn of Mr.

L. Polmateer, a resident of Highland, Ulster County, In this Stale. The matter was put in the hands of Constable Mondon, of the Town of Highland, who came at oneo to the city ond thoroughly searched all tho livery and auction stables about town, but could not obtain a cluo to the rnisblng property. Before returning homo he told the facts to a policeman with whom he was acquainted, and In a fow days tho offlcor having heard by 6ome chanco about the horso sent Constable Mondon a postal card rogarding the whereabouts of tbo animal. The Constable, accompanied by Mr.

Polmateer, again camo to Now York, and after a day's search found tho mls3 ing animal in possession of John Brady, a resident of Brooklyn, E. but keeping a cooperage at No. 132 Mercer street, ilr. Brady stated that ho bail bought the maro from DR. HIRAM TTBNEIt, a former acquaintance In Brooklyn, and bad paid $70 therefor.

It waB also ascertained that Dr. Tumor had left Brooklyn about six months ago and moved to Lcods in Groeno County, but had been away from his homo about tbo time of tbo robbery. Then ho was traced with tho fltoien property to Hobokon, whero he Btablcd tho aulnial six days beforo bringing tho mare to Now York. Ou a warrant Issuod by Justico Blxby, Officer Conueil, of tho Prlnco streot Station, arrested Dr. Turner as ho wbb coming out of a sfioon last Monday night, at tho corner of Mercer and Prlnco strcote.

Tho magistrate ordered tho animal to bo placed la eome livery stable, subject to his order, and committed Dr. Turner to prison to await tho action of the authorities of Ulster County, whence tho property was stolon. This morning Constable Mondon again appeared at tho court, armod with a warrant IsBucdflby Justico luting, of Ulster County, for tha arrest of Dr. Hiram Tur nor on a charge of STEALING A HORSE, BTJOOT AND HARNESS from L. Polmateer.

JuBtlce Blxby mado the legal Indorsement on the warrant and turned over tne prisoner to the oustody of Constable Mondon, who, with Officer Connell, of the Charles street Station, took the prisoner up tho river by the Grand Central Railroad, beforo tbo prisoner was taken from tho court Counselor McClelland urged that an examination be held, contending that inasmuch as the property allogfd to have been stolen had been brought Into this county that the Magistrate hero had full jurisdiction In tho mater. Judgo Bixby said: "If you aro prepared to give me proof that this man did not Htcal tho property I will outer luto an examination, otherwise I shall Indorse this warrant from Ulster Couuty and baud over the priRonor to bo taken there for trial. I must have proof that tho animal was not stolen." Lawyer McClelland and one or two others Interested still craved for delay, but Justice Blxby would not grant It. Dr. Turner, who says he Is a GRADUATE.

OF THE LONO ISLAND MEDICAL COLLEGE. went from Brooklyn where; his family reside, to Leeds in Greene County, last May. In conversation with a reporter he said that he bought the property at a mortgage sale back of Athena, in Greene Couuty, and came to Now York to speouiate on it. He sold tho horse to Mr. Brady for $70 and got $19 for the wagon at auction.

He atili had the harness. The doctor seemed very dejected upon learning that he was to bo token to the co untry for trial. BEimU MACHINE 31 EM AT LOIiCEUHKADS.J The complaint of E. G. Eoberts, general agent of the Wilson Sewing Machine Company, against T.

Deyo Thereupon Shows What Stuff he is Made Of He Denounces "Eoslln Conkloe" and the Saratoga Conrention, and a Shamefully Persistent Effort Is Made to Cough him Down Tho Pickwickian Side of Politics in the Twentythlrd Meeting of the Twenty, fifth Ward Republicans. A largely attended monthly meeting of the Twenty third Ward Republican Association was held last evening at liberty Hall, corner of Noatrand and Gates arenuea. Mr. D. A.

Baldwin, the President, occupied the chair, and the Socrotary, Mr. Garrison, recorded the proceedings. When President Baldwin called tho meeting to order he announced that he had received some good news from the enemy at Syracuse in the shape of the renomi nation of Lucius Robinson bb the Democratic candidate for Governor. The announcement was received with applauBe. Secretary Garrison then read the minutes of the last meeting, aud a dlsoueslon arose upon the propriety of their approval, tho gentleman who had offered the resolution contained In the mlnutsa arranging for the recant primary maintaining tnat nis resolution reaa that the primary bo held "in" Liberty Hall, whereas tbo minuteB have it "at" Liberty Hall.

Tho point was regarueu as important, owing to tuo iacl oi the uue "Bldowalk" primary held In the ward. The qnostion was settled by reference to the original resolution wnicn reaa "in" Liberty Hall, ana tho minutos were then approved as corrected. Tho Executive Committee reported that a mcotlng had beon hold, but nothing havo been done on account of tho absenco of tho Secretary. Mr. Ellerj of tho Investigating Committee, reported favorably on a long Hut of names presented at a previous meeting, for membership, and unfavorably on a number of others.

On motion the ones reported favorably upon were placed upon the roll. Mr. Eilory then moved that tho namea reported unfavorably upon be rejected. Thero were about twenty five in all, and with two exceptions had boon adversely reported on on account of tho parries having removed from tho ward. The two exceptions had been DISCOVERED TO BE DEMOCRATS.

Mr. Tenny moved to amend Mr. Edcry'a motion by including the names of tho members of tho association who had proposod tho names of tho persons rejected, and stood Hpousors for theru. Tho amendment was lost and tho original motion to reject aa roported, was adopted. President naldwin stated that he had several communications to make to the association, among which was a call for undrf with which to defray past and to provide for ths future contingent expenses of tho association.

Justice Fisher proposed that a subscription be started and a collection taken up at once, and offored to head tha list with ten dollars. A member reuiarkod that they wanted a big subscription, as it would require about f'250 to run the association. A voico If we can meet on tho sldowalk, what Is tbo use of hiring a hall 1 Laughter. The Chair Well, wo are not going to hold any moro open air meetings Its gotting too cool for that. Laughter.

While tho subscription was going on a member said there was a gentleman presont who wished to aubscribo five dollars, but WAS TOO MODEST to havo his name mentioned. Laughter. Tho Secretary Well, we'll put It down "Mr. Modesty, five dollars." Laughter. About $100 was raised altogether.

President Baldwin aaid he had received some, timo ago a letter from a memtor of tbo association, which he would read. It ran as follows Brooklyn, Soptembor 1879. Dkab Sxr In a speeph by Jarues W. Filnu, delivered at Liberty Hall on the 2d aud distributed in pamphlet form throughout the ward, appears tho following: "It is well known that after the investigation, Howard M. Smith left tha Custom House for tho CuHtoms' good.

Hts evidence Is a matter of record." While for th'i personal aliuso tn said speech I care nothing, I do not propose to rcvnMn silent under an attack on my personal character, ond I respectfully ask that you will take such stops aa yoa may deem necessary to ascertain the truth or faUlty of the above fetatemout, and I shall ask that the result bo laid.bt ore the Twenty third Ward Republican Association, bf which Mr, Filnu and myself aro members. Respectfully, Howard M. ToD.A. Baldwin, President Iwcnty third Ward lie publican AWKiation. President Baldwin said he was well acquainted with both tho parties concerned and waB convinced that neither would make a statement which ho did not bollovo to be outirely true.

Ho had theroforo written to foveral gentlemen who had kuown Mr. Smith in hi official character, and obtained from them somo testimony on tho subject. THE FTItST COJlMTTNIOATION was from General Arthur, Collector of the Port at the time referred to by Mr. Flinn. The letter was as follows Dear Sir Iu answer to your note of the Sth in regard to Mr.

Howard M. tiuiitli, you are informed that Mr. Smith held a p'aco iu tho Weighers' Department of the New York Custom Houso during almost tho entiro timo of my administration of nearly sovon years, having been appointed by Collector Griunell In 18H9. In Dccembor of 1877 ho wad removed by order of the Soo reury of tho Treasury, upon some representation mado to tuo department, which, upon investigation, proved to bo untrue. The department thereupon expretwly authorized his reappointment.

Ho was thereupon immediately reappointed by me (the appointment being confirmed by tho Treasury Department), and heid office until May, 1878, whon he resigned of his own accord. HIr official record during the whole timo he was in the sorvico was excellent; no charge was over made against him by mo or to me or by the Jay Commission that I over heard of. Very reapectf ully yours, 0. A. ABTHtB, D.

A. Jtafriurfn, Brooklyn, Xcw York. President Baldwin then followed with communications from special agents D. A. Nixon and N.

M. Curtis, attesting to tho good record of Mr. Smith while In the Weighers' Department. The letters woro received with loud demonstrations of approval. It was moved by Mr.

Fllnu that the communications bo placed on file. Mingled hisses aud applauue.j President Baldwin eaid that ho looked upon tho correspondence as hte private property, but if the association doslrod the letters he would willingly reaign tbem. A memler moved that copies of tha letters be placod on file, and tho origlna'. documents be presented to Mr. Smith, Applause.

Mr. Teuuy aald ho did not think tho matter a proper thing to have on rocord, aud moved that the whole matter bo laid on tho table, Justico Fisher hoped that would not be done, as It would look a if the association was afraid to go into tho hiBtory of ono of its members. It was moved and seconded that ooplos of tho papers be preserved, and the originals presented to Mr. tlmith. Adopted.

Ou motion of Mr. Eilory tho number of the Investigating Committee wus increased to twelve member. Mr. Thornton offered a resolution fixing the hours of FUTURE riUM.U'.y ELECTION'S from half past three o'clock in tho afternoon to half paat ten o'clock at night. Mr.

Gniacnard wanted to know how many members the association numbered. A memlwr About 1100. Mr. Gulschnrd Then from half past threo to half past ten Is not long enough to vote a thouaaud men. Give evory man a chance.

I move that the hours be extended from 9 A. M. to 10 P. and thou no one will be crowded out. Hissoa.

Mr. Deyo thought that from three in the afternoon until ten at night would be quite sufficient. Ho believed in giving tho mombers plenty of time to vote, and did not believe in allowing a faction to control tho association, but wanted evory man to have an equal chanco, Mr. Gleason thought that six hours was the proper limit. He wanted plenty of timo, and ho be loved If more time had been granted at tho la.sl primary things would be difforont now.

The motion to hold tho primaries from four o'clock to ten o'clock waa then put and carried. Justice Fisher offered a resolution indorsing tho platform of the ticket nominated at tho Saratoga Convention, and undlvidod Republican support. Justico Fisher then indulged in a highly colored tirade about the otforts of certain Democrats at PLANTTNQ THB REBEL FLAG in the Presidential mansion, and said that there wera Bomo Republicans who rather approved this sentimont because thoy wore not altogether Batlefiod with the ticket nominated at Saratoga. He believed tho Republicans wero on the ove of one of tho most eventful campaigns ever witnessed by the party. He said the man heading tho ticket was better calculated to carry the State of New York than any other man in the party, and he was backed up by the foromost man in tho State of New York.

Iloscoe Conkllng. Great applause. Tho triumph of tho Republicans in the State thiB year woo absolutely necessary to the success of tho party In the Presidential raco In 1880. Mr. Deyo replied to Justico Fisher.

Ha hegm by remarking the lack of enthusiasm shown at Saratoga, where, he Baid, not a cheer had been given for the man at the head of the ticket. Mr. Gloaaon Lot's give him three cheers now, then. The hall echoed with a volley of deafening huzxas, repeated again and again, Mr. Deyo endeavored to mako himself heard above the tumult, but every Uino he essayed to speak bis voice was drowned In tho awful din.

When order was restored, cries of "Sit down" greeted bjrn. Continuing, ho said tbey ueod not try to cough him down, for by doing so they only holpod on tho defeat of tho man who was the TOOL AND SHADOW OF EQSCOE CONBXtNG. HLisea and applause. Tho uproar that followed was indescribable. Cheors were proposed and given for every man on the Republican State ticket, with Boscoe Coukllng's name interjected after each candidate.

Mr. Deyo Mr. Chairman, I'd like to know If a member bis any privileges that are bound to be respected A voice Is this a Democratic or a Republican meeting 1 Mr. Deyo Mr. President, RobUu Conkloe Great confusion, shouts and roars of laughter.

When order was again partly restored Mr. Deyo explained that his confusion in mixing the syllables of tho great Senator's name had arisen owing to tho revcrbent. tions of that shotgun in Rhode Island. Howla of derision. In attempting to proceed he made the same mlstako in pronouncing RoaeoeConkiing, pronouncing it Roelln Conkloe amid peals of laughter and fresh outburts of deriBiva applauae.

Mr. Deyo cloned by uttering his protest against the nomination of Cornell, which has been aocompllahed by the IniamouB methods put In praotlce at the Assembly Convention of the ward. Calls were then made for JOHN OAKEY, who at last ascended the platform and responded in a characteristically humorous vein, hla object being evidently to restore harmony and good feeling in the meeting. His speech was greeted with roars of laughter and round after round of applause. He said be liked to sea differences of opinion among peoplo.

He was a good citizen, was a fond father, but if he had a milksop of a wife who didn't get on her ear once in a while and set down on him, he wouldn't love her for a cent. Laughter.) After a few mora remarks of tho same nature he retired amid applause. The question was then put on Justico Fisher's resolution indorsing the Saratoga nominations, and adopted unanimously, Mr. Deyo not voting. A.

V. Gleaaon then offored the following rrfiereas, Certain vacancies existing in different departments ot our city government were filled a a recent meeting of our Common Council, by means of a combination between the Democratlo members of said Common Council and four Bepublican members thereof, and Whereat, aald combination was effected, not in the Interest or good government and in accordance with good principle, but at the sacrifice of party faith and manly virtue, therefore be it Buolved, That the conduct of tho four Aldermen referred to in the foregoing preamble provokes our emphatic condemnation and we censure and condemn alike them and any and all persons who aided, abetted and encouraged them in their willful abandonment of political honor and their shameless betrayal of their party and their constituency. Retohed. That in our judgment the respective ward aasociotiona of which these Aldermen are members will only discharge the obligation reitinR upon the Republican party if they expel the said Aldermen from membership and Bend them forth, branded as thoy aro with their political treachery, the natural objects of commla. 64 ration and contempt.

The resolutions were unanimously adopted and toe meeting then adjourned. Twenty flf tli Ward Republicans. The first regular monthly meeting of the Twenty nfth Ward Bepublican Association after the Summer recesB was held last evening In Turn Hall, on Bnmter street, near Saratoga avenue, and was very largely attended. The meeting was called to ordor shortly after 8 o'clock by E. H.

Flavin, President of tho association, and the proceedings wore recorded by the Secretary, Mr. Theodore P. Brokaw. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. The following was read In reply to a resolution adopted it ths June meeting indorsing THB VETOES OF PliESIDEXT HAYES.

Executive Masbios, June 16, 1873. Dear Sin I tun directed bf the rreiident to sc A Republican Aldermanic Bone Hunter on the War Path. Alderman Graham, Mad Over tho Discharge of one of his Heelers from the City Worts Department, Insults Coin misslouer Hazzard in his Office The Indignant Commissioner Threatens to Bounce tho Alderman Unless he Behaves More Like a Gentleman A Background of Auditor Ammerman and Alderman Stewart to a Picture that Suggests what Underlies Political Deals. An extraordinary scene occurred in the office of tho Board of OllyWorka to day. Since the appointment of Commissioner Hastard to eucceed tho oonviot ed Flaherty he has been beset by bonehnnting ward politicians in searoh of place for their friends.

He has put np with their persecutions for a long time, bnt this forenoon endurance ceased to be a virtue and he turned upon the men who have hounded him, with, a ferocity that made their hair stand on end. Ono of the most persistent applicants for patronage has been Alderman Graham, of the Elevonth Word. Graham is a little man, with a long face, a peaked beard and a habitually melancholy expression of countenance. His pursuit of places for his heelers recently led him to apply for the dismissal of Borne poor Borub women from the city buildings, in order to replace them with favorltoa of his own. Officials have come to look upon his approach with appre honslon, and they Bay that, for pertlnaoity in begging for the Bpoils of office, he fa only equaled by ths distin gulshed Dreyer, tho author of tho "new deal." WHAT CAUSED THB BOW.

Some time ago, it appears, a clerk In tha 8ewer Ab I eessment Bureau named Latham, a Republican who had been put in place by Flaherty and Bennett, was re moved for some reason or other, and tho duties of tho place were ossignod to William E. Chapman, who has hold tho easy position of olerk to Bewer Inspector Dady. Chapman is Secretary of tho Eleventh Word Republican Association and a particular friend of Alderman Graham, Auditor Ammerman and tha wing of the party known as the "Bill Stewart gang." He figured in tho ante election transactions whereby the payrolls were stuffed with stnecurists and through which Flaherty and Bennett wero convicted of conspiracy to defraud the city and driven from oflico. It seems that the engineer of the Board reported that Chapman was unable to perform tho duties of the position made vacant by Latham's retirement, whioh required a correct knowledge of mathematics. President Maasey requested that his brother, T.

M. Massoy, bo appointed to fill the position made vacant by Latham's dismissal, and also the place now held by Chapman as clerk to Dady, the Inspoctor of Sewers. A meeting of the Board of City Works was hold yeaterday Maasey and Commissioner present. Commissioner Worth was absent, attending a meeting of the Republican 8tate Committee in Now York. The commissioners, for some reason or other, took pninB to keep from the press any knowledge of their proposod action.

President Massey moved that Chapman bo dismissed and that Mb brother T. M. Mas Bey be appointed to fill the vacancy, and also the vacancy caused by Latham's dismissal. Commissioner Hazzard sent for Engineer Van Buron and aBked him what were the duties of Chapman. The engineer, according to Commissioner Hazzard, Baid that Chapman "didn't amount to much." The CommiSBionera then voted to remove Chapman and appoint T.

M. Massey to fill the position of Clerk in tho Department of Sewer Assessment and clerk to the Superintendent of Sewers, at a salary of $1,200 a year. The removal of Chapman croated the moat inteuBo excitement among tho Republican small fry in tho Eleventh Ward last night, and Alderman Graham rushed to Commissioner Hazzard's house to demand an explanation. Commissioner Hazzard was not at home, GRAHAM ON THB WABPATH. This forenoon AMui'niaa Graham appeared In the now Municipal Building, woaring an imposing stovo pipo hat and with an angry fluBh on his faco.

With City Auditor Ammerman and. Bill Stewart for his body guard, he marchod into the mooting room of the Board of City Works. Mr. Hazzard was tho only Commissioner presont at the timo, and ho was attending to routino business. "Uncle" Dan Northup was poring over his minute book as Graham ruBhod Into tho room with hiB followers.

The trio entered bo hurriedly and wero so excited that Unele Dan jumped from his chair and clapped both hands on his whr to Bave himself from bolug scalped. Drawing himself upon his tlptoos, and with an attempt at dignity, Graham In an imporious tone demanded "What in Hazzard meant by removing his friend Chapman to make roo for that fellow Massey Commissioner Hazzard, who is naturally of a quiet and gentlemanly bearing, looked at the irate little Alderman in astonishment, but wlion ho saw that be waa in earnest ho assumed a sorious air and lookod sharply at Graham. "What in waB Chapman discharged for 7" repeated Graham, in a high, shrill voice that made Uncle Dan hold on to his wig tighter than ever. "Bocause," ropliod Commissioner Hazzard, "he could' not do the work." "Who says so, who flays bo Bhoutod Graham, dancing about the room with rage. "I am bo informed by the head of tho Department," quietly ropliod Mr.

Hazzard, That's Dady," rejoined Graham. "Well, if Dady says bo, he lies. This fellow Massoy has got his brother down from Oswogo County Ojywn here and put him in this place. He baa used and is using you all the time." No, air; no, sir," Bald Commissioner Hazzard, beginning to warm up. "No man has used mo, and no man can uso me." "I considor it a ontrago," shrieked Graham.

It ia a personal insult to me. You Bit thero, and whoa THIS PEWiOW MASSEY winks at you, you do just as he says. You are acting just as badly aa the four renegade Republican Aldermen." As he made the laBt observation Graham approached Mr. Hazzard, whoao swarthy faso began to flush with anger, and whose eyes auapped aa if ho was proparod for a set to. Auditor Ammerman and Bill Stewart, who evidently did not relish the vile conduct of; their pigmy Alderman, triod to quiet him, but in vain.

Commissioner Hazzard was thoroughly aroused by tha last insult of Graham. Ho turned upon the bone hunter with the ferocity of a tiger, and with clenched fists, said "You are going altogether too far with me, Mr. Graham. I want you to understand one thing you can go JUBt so far and then you have got to stop and the stalwart official brought his fist down on tho deBk with a violence that cauBed the inkstands to dance, and made Uncle" Dan's wig tremble alarmingly. Graham at eight of the brawny fist ond a significant movement of tho Commissioner's boot, turned pale and retired a step or two.

"I have gone about as far as I can," he echoed, in a hollow voloe. "Well, you know I came and whispered in your ear the other day about it aud gave you a memorandum." "Good 1" exolaimed the Commissioner, "I can't carry in my head all the memorandums of Aldermen who want places. I don't know anything about it." "You should know about it," said Graham, impudently. "How can I do onything with a politician beside me asked the Commissioner. "The only way," replied Graham, pompously, "for a man to auocood is for a man to act llko a man." "You had bettor be careful," again remarked Commissioner Hazzard, threateningly.

"There are certain things I wont stand. How can I do anything with two politicians against me 7" "Oh," sneered Graham, "this fellow Massey comes here and eaya certain things shall be done and they aro dono. Ha site there and winks at you and you do Just aa he saye." This utterance of Graham's, which was made in the moat offensive manner, cut the Commissioner to the quick. He again turned upon Graham and in a thunder tone that made the little Alderman a shade paler he said "Now look here Mr. Graham, when I want you to come hero and advise me how to do my business or to do it for me, I will send for you.

You must not como here to insult ma or to act as my guardian, for if you undertake ts do It by fVh BOUNCE YOU QUICKEB THAN LIGHTNINO. and again the brawny fist came down, making Graham paler Btill, while Unole Dan's wig quivered like a leaf and the inkstands executed a regular old time gig. Mr. Chapman," whined Graham, "is a Republican, and I came hers to get him retained." "I don't care how you came here," responded Mr. Hazzard.

I am not here to watch your particular interests or those of any other politician. I am here to do tho beBt I oan for the people of the City of Brooklyn. Mr. Chapman was removed because the head ot tho department said he oould not do his duties." "If any man," declared Graham, "soya that Mr. Chapman haa not performed his duties he lies.

Mr. Chapman 1 Bocretary of our ward association. He writes a good hand, and his name appears in tho papers in connection with tho nottoes of moetinga of our association." "I don't know," said tha OommiBBloner, "whether he is from tho Eighth Ward or the Tenth Ward." "Wall, it's not to yonr credit," pnt in Graham. "Where I can find one man who will disohargo tho duties of two men, and discharge them well, I am willing to disohargo the two, and employ him." Why was not Mr. Chapman permitted to discharge the duties 7" askod Graham.

The head of the department cays he waa not competent," waa the reply. That's Dady," eaid the Alderman, excitedly. Well, if Dady says so he lies." 11 Yon assume a great deal," said Commissioner Has zard. "I want you to be careful how you address me. Yon have come in here this morning and said some things you ought to be ashamed of.

If I find that a man is incapable to do tho duties required of him, I am going to vote to put him out. I don't know Mr. Chapman. I don't know where he came from." But I called your attention to the matter," insisted Graham. But," aald Hazzard, I cant carry the names of all the men recommended by you Aldermen in my head." 1 take it," said Graham, "a a personal InBUlt.

You havo no right to deliberately remove a man and insult us." "WeU, if It comes to that, what right have you to come here and dictate to ns what business wo ehatt do 1 What business Is it of yours What is the use of having a Board of City Works if the Aldermen ore to dictate what business la to be transacted Why don't yon come here decently instead of coming in as you did 7 You camo here to bulldoze me, bnt, 1 want you to nn deretand, you have got hold of do wrong man. When we como down to. the real facts, you've no business to say who shall bo pnt in Lore at all. You came here thia morning snarling at me and abusing me. It's entirely uncalled for, it's entirely out or.

placo. I never had a man to talk to me in that manner before, either in my official or private career, and, by won't Btand it from yon or any one else." For a moment Graham subsided, and Auditor Ammerman, who had been vainly endeavoring to restrain the Alderman, approached Commissioner Hazzard, and said he waa in favor of reducing the expenses of the city, but he believed Mr. Ghapman was a good man, and he thought wrong had Ijeoa dono him. He ought at least to have had an opportunity to resign. In reply to Mr.

Special to the Eagle. Stbaouse, September 12. The Kings County delegates left for homo on the 9:45 train this morning.

8onator Jacobs and a few others will stop off at Albany. Most of tha country delegates hava gone to their homes. Tho rest of the Tammany men who remained over night loft this morning. They were not as enthusiastic as thoy wero last evon ing and somo of them admit that they will not control as many votes as have been olalmod. Ex Hegister McLaughlin has received telegrams from many well known Democrats in Brooklyn commonding tha Kings County delegation for their firm support of Governor Robinson.

Sonator Jacobs was warmly praised for his conduct throughout the proceedings of tho oonvontlon and especially for Mb refusal to bo a candidate for the nomination for Governor. Ho says that ho camo here to vote for Robinson, and stood by the county which had bo often honoiod him, evon though it might be at tho sacriuco of personal and political ambition. Statements havo been made bore and elsewhere to the effect that McLaughlin opposed Slocum on personal grounds. This is declared untrue. McLaughlin favored Robinson aa the mora available and strongor candidate by far, and the Kings delegation wero unanimously with him in tha convention, although Messrs.

Kingsley, AUon, Morris and a few others had been urging Slooum. Genoral Slooum went down on tho train with the Brooklyn men. He was satisfied with the result of the convention, and would do all ho could for tho success of tho ticket. Ho had nothing more to say. The presentation of General Slocuni's name in tha convention by Tammany was absolutely without authority.

It was to have boon presonted by Rugor, of Onondaga, who left the convontlon when tho Goneral was nominated by Tammany. Tammany'a action is denonncod by Genoral Slocum'a friends. W. W. An Accident Unknown Man Killed.

"What do I think of the nominations'!" responded Mr. Murphy, why, I think it is a first rate ticket. Of coursu, I very much regret ail difference of opinion which rosulted in such a serious division, but I think it will come out all right. So far as I know, Governor Robinson has discharged tho duties of his oflico in a manner to which no exception can be taken by either Republicans or Democrats. As for Kings County, in my Judgment.

It will give full support lo tho ticket nominated. I don't think anything elaa could have been dono. EX ALDERMAN DANtEL D. WHITNEY Gald to an Eagle reporter "Our own self respect demanded that wo should renominate Robinson. I don't seo how we could do otherwise.

This bolt will all simmer down before and tho ontire ticket will be olocted." EX SUTEB.VISOB said he thought the nomination of Robinson was tho bast ihiag the Domooratlc convention could do. The question decldod waa whether the people or the public stipendiaries should rulo, and tho convention had decided in favor of the people. He prodiotod the success of the ticket. MB. MIOHAEL OHAT7NCET, President of tho Mechanics' Bank, said he cordially approved of Governor Robinson's administration and waa satisfied with his ronominatlon.

The Kings County delegation had dona ltsolf honor la staadiug by the Governor. T. D. JONES, President of tho Nassau Insurance Company, had a very docldod opiuion on the subject, and di 1 not hesitate to express it in plain terms. "I think," he said, "it is a splendid nomination, aud I was heartily in favor of it.

I approve of tho action taken by the Democrats of Kings County. It was the very least thoy could do to prcsorve their manhood, and thoy did It woll. Tho ticket will received my cordial support, and, I think, will do more than socuro tho full Democratic vote in the county it will gat many Republican votes." JOSEPH PLATT, Commissioner of tho Board of Elections, said, in answer to tho reporter "My opinion is that tho whole State ticket will be elected. It is a splendid ticket. Robinson has an army of friends among tho Republicans, many of whom will vote for him.

I have heard a great many Republicans express their opinions on tbo subject of John Kelly's dictation, and as thoy aro not enthuslastir for Cornell, they will go for RobinBon." MAYOB IIOWELL was Bcated in his office in tho City Hal! when the reporter entered. On learning the latter's business, he exclaimed I have nothing to say about tha matter, I keop my own counsel." Your opinion would bo road with great Interest," BUggeated tho reporter. "Perhaps so," said his Honor, "but I think tho Mayor, like any othor private citizen, should keep his opinion to himself." Police Commissioner JOHN PYBUBN was vory pronounced in his viows and frank in their My opinion is," ho said, that Governor Robinson will be elected. It would have been a great wrong on tho part of the convention not to renominate a man who has brought about the greatest reform over accomplished in this State. Furthermore, I think that tho nomination of Mr.

hotter will add great strength to tho ticket. To havo oubmitted to tho dictation of Tammany Hall would havo been a great mistake. From a political standpoint, and looking at it in tho interests of tho people of the whole State of all clasBes of people tho nomination will lift New York hlghor In the estimation of tho country than It ever stood before. The Kings County delegates acted with wisdom in standing by Robinson, aud faithfully represented tho wishes of the voters of the county." Police CommlBBioner EX MAYOK JOHN W. HUNTEB was found In hla private office in the Dime Savings Bank.

"Oh, I don't know that I havo an opinion to express," ho said in answer to tho reporter's interrogatory, "but you can say that I havo every faith In Mr. Robinson's re election. The Republicans have had a leaso of power for fifteen years through tho mistakes of the Democrats, and I think it was tlma to do something of tho kind. Kelly's dictation In Now York has dono more harm to the party than his defection could possibly havo done. Mayor Ely was a good Executive, but he didn't happen to suit Mr.

Kelly, and New York had to ohooso a queer kind of a Mayor. There aro somo things about Mr. Robinson that I might wish were otherwise, but he has made on excellent Governor and will bo re eleoted. I havo beon up In the western part of the State and from the tone of both Democrats and Republicans outside of New York and Kings County, there aro good reasons for supposing tho success of the Democratic ticket is assured. I don't think the Democratic delegates could have done anything else." N.

H. CLEMENT thought tho nominotiona were good ones. Ho was originolly In favor of some other man, but since Kelly had attempted to bulldoze the Democratlo party, he was for Robinson ont and out, and folk convinced of his re election by a largo majority. JOHN H. BEROEK did not think there was any question about the result of the election in November.

Ho added My personal predilections wero In favor of Sanford E. Church, but Mr. Kelly changed them for me very effectually, and I Bhall Bupport Robinson to tho beat of my ability. I don't think that the Demooratio party of New York State could efford to do anything else. It was Just tho right time to notify John Kelly that ho does not run the Demooratio party.

ALDERMAN BLACK thought that the nominations were altogether faultless. "I think," ho said, "that tho wholo ticket will bo elected. It would be bettor to ha beaten fgnomlniously than to havo to submit to tha dictation of anyone man." COMMENTS OF THE PRESS. A Result That OTTalcea For Decency. From the Evening Post.

Looking at the situation from the point of view of tho honorable, honest and self respecting ucm oorats of the State, It is plain that harmony uecured through tha triumph of Tammany would have been worthless. The disgust and discouragement which would havo been felt by Democrats of thia sort would hove bean a heavy price to pay for the formal allegiance of Mr. Kelly and bis associates. Success in November would have been extremoly doubtful but suppose that success had been goined.

The Autumnal Attractions at the Beach for People not Afraid of a Little Coolness, The Hop Last Evening at tho Brightou A Presentation at tho Manhattan, There wero jugt enough people at the Island yoBterday afternoon and evening to bo a source of surprise to tho hotel koopers. One of the latter was heard to say that ho confessed he didn't understand it.

The legitimate mission of a watering place tn his Judgment was principally to afford an opportunity to onjoy the cooling broezeB of tho ocean, but why they should bo iu domand upon evenings when the temperature In tho city was absolutely chiU, ho failed to understand. It lookod like an anomaly yosturday afternoon and later In tha day to see tho occupants of outward bound trains genorouBly furnished with those articles of attire tho sight of which always suggests the approach of Winter, Ladles woll wrapped up in shawls and ulsters, and gen tlomon with overcoata buttoned around the nock found that they were not more than sufficiently protected during the run down to tho Beach, and as many as could squeeze thomselves comfortably luto tho closed car accompanying evory train took the opportunity of doing so. It was, nevertheleaa, Bimply a magnifioont evening, and the chances for enjoyment at the Beach wore never greater. In the nbaonce of the ruBh prevailing when the season ia at ita height, waiters had time to bo attentive and oven tolerably polite, and the cooks, not being driven to desperation, had ample opportunity to do justice to theoisolves and thauo who patronized tho restaurant.

The day was an unerentful one at Brighton Beach, but seasldo monotony hore was very pleasantly varied in tho ovening. For Boms weeks previously the more pormanent guests of ths house had boen discussing the advisability of tendering to tho lessees, MeBsrs. Sweet and Breslin, a complimentary hop. Tho idea was deemed easily worthy of the brain In which it had originated, and it soon took very tangible Bhapo. Very tasteful invitations requesting the ploasura of the recipient's company were sont tn all directions, those documents being adorned by the following vory imposing list of committeemen Loonard Jerome, W.

In the matter of train accommodation nothing was wanting, a special train leaving tho Boach at ono o'clock for tho convenience of those who did not desire to spend the night at the Island.

The arrivals commenced aa oarly as sovon o'clock. They woro conducted upstairs after a cordial greeting from Mr. Sweet, every facility for tho satisfactory arrangement of the toilet being placed at the disposal of tho ladles. Tho hop was held in what has become so widely known as the table d'hote room, aad it proved to bo an apartment eminently fitted for tho purpose to which it was devoted. It had, of couree, been completely cleared of everything Buggcstivo of gastronomy, and by dint of polishing, the floor had been brought into that particular condition which an accomplished dancor delights to see.

At tho southern end of the room had beon constructed an elevated platform, which was at once a conservatory and a stand for the musicians. Here was to be soen as choice a collection of ferns and palms and roses aa over threw into auperb relief tho heroes of the trumpet, violin and drum. The orchestra was composed of gontlemon Judiciously selected from tho band ovor which Professor Neuendorff presides bo efflclenly, but it waa not under the direction of the Professor. Mr. Julias Bernstein was master of musical ceremonies, and he proved equal to any and all emergencies.

At half past nine the opening march was played. There was then assembled as select a company of guests as the most fastidious frionda of Brighton Beach could possibly have desired. Not a single element was wanting to make tho affair a complete and gratifying success. Tho weather was exactly of the temperature which rendered dancing a source of real pleasure rather than a task, and ths merry makers took full advantage of the opportunity to show their powers of endurance. There was no senso in which tho affair oould have failed to be pleasing to Messrs.

Breslin Sweet, and both of these gentlemen looked as though they very fully appreciated tho high compliment.which the attendance of such a class and number forcibly implied. The following was the order of dancing 1. March "Brighton Beach" Letdelbach 2. Landers M. S.

Upward of thirty five hundred people visited thia section of the beach during the day and evening, and the hotel register showed that the names of tho arrivals covered three and a half pages of that important volume. Among them was no less a person than a Russian prince, with a name of the moBt uncompromisr ing character. There was nothing unusual going on at Manhattan.

Gilmora and his band were at their best. Levy was playing In a Btyle that brought forth enthu lastlo plaudits, and the spectators were enjoying themselves in the quiet, orthodox, Manhattan Beach fashion. It Is not often, even at this ond of the Island, that bo thorough a musical treat is offered aa there was last night, and thoe who listened to the exquisite rendering of the exquisite "Rhapsodle Hongroisa, No. 2," had reason to feel that their trip to tho Island had been well repaid. The restaurant was not at all deserted, but most of the waiters found timo to devote themselves to the highly intellectual exercise of playing with their napkins or atudylug the stare.

Mr. Burnap who was endeavoring to convince himself that he vraa in a state of unqualified contentment, came within an ace of being successful. He has an aoute appreciation of good he found himself last evening with abundant leisure to listen to it. A short time previously he had taken a very prominent part in a very pleasant little ceremony. This was neither more nor less than the presentation to Captain Onrlin, of the Manhattan Detective Squad, of a very handsome gold locket.

It was the gift of hla subordinates, by whom be is esteemed as highly as he certainly deserves, and this is saying not a little. The detectives selected Mr. Burnap to make the presentation in their behalf, and he did it in a style whioh must have immediately captivated the somewhat susceptible hearts. The hotel man ts as thoroughly at home npon such an occasion as he is is directing the operations of a battalion of cooks and a legion of waiters. He made a little speech, or as he himself modestly described tha oratorical outburat, he simply said a single word.

There was something elngular about tho Bpeech, but it was not numerical singularity. His hearers have not dared to express the opinion that the address would have made up a very respectable dictionary, but all of those who heard it aro unanimous in the conclusion that it was undeniably happy and appropriate. As for tho captain, ho was as much embarrassed as though ho of all others had Just been the victim of a pickpocket. He Bald he would not tell them how happy they had juat made blm, and with refreshing inconsistency he proceeded to expatiate upon tho pleasure which such an evidence of their esteem afforded him. Tho detectives of Manhattan havo done excellent Borvice during tho season now so rapidly drawing to a close.

Their work does not show upon tha eurf ace, but it la none the less effectively performed, and there ts very Ut' Ie promise at this end of tha Beach for any member of the fraternity which, la cARraottrimd br the Cesaosalon ot tight fingers. i A..
