A sent Wilkin, of the for the Prevention cf Cruelty to Children, and I.awyer Corrnro had a wir of word in the Adam Street Police Court yesterday.

It waa all caused over the arraignment oX Mar.a was cbarjjvd with' eemg a disorderly chiM. She wa arrested yesterday by Detective Tony Vacbri, of the Central Office squad, in a house at No. 114 Mott arrest. New York, and brourhr to this city. Her father n.u the complaining witness against her.

This child i in the cutody of the society, Well, I have all the right in the world, spoke up the young Italian lawyer. I have been retained to defend the child, and 1 don't tee that the society ha. any right to deprive me of that privilege. If he see fit he can bring the child up i habeas corpus proceedings, said Mr. Bucku.

am enitled to see my client, and see her I must. spoke up Cnrraro. Mr. Backus, however, declared that she would remain in the custody of the society, und after considerable argument Mr. Car-raro said that he would consider what action he would take.

He Will Prebably fllge the Contract ea Friday al a Meeting ef the Executive Committee Will He He Compelled to Int Up a large Bondf-Mjsn Saya that the Comntlaaloutrs Only Bid Their Bat In Citrine Him lha Contract P. H. Flynn, the well knoarj railroad uian, of this city, ha secured the routract for ereeting the New York tower of the new East River Bridge. It waa given to him at a meeting of the Commissioner, held yesterday afternoon In the Emigrant Sav-mtr Bank Building, Chainlera street. New nrk.

Mr. Flynn, it will be rememticred, wx the lowest bidder. II stated that'he could do the work for providing the toner should he built of granite, and if it ws built of granite and limestone. This was something like $46,000 less than any of tbe other contractor. The action of the Commissioner in taking mo much time in awrdltig the contract ha caused considerable comment.

Tbe bid wore opened two week ago, and it was then known that Mr. Flynn wia the lowest bidder. All of the bid there were eleven of them were referred to Chief Engineer Buck for investigation, and at the lawt meeting he made his reMrt. This, however. id not prove satisfactory, and he wa given another week In the meantime Mr.

Klyvm stated that if the contract wa not awarded to him he wcqld take the matter into court, and shut off all work on the bridge until hi case as settled. Those who know Mr. Flynn are aware of the fact that he wouldnt hesitate to do tbi. A couple of the Commissioner, it was learned, were in favor of giring Mr. Flynn the contract, but there was a good deal of opposition.

The opposition wa very strong, and it looked as if Mr. Flynn would not get the contract. As stated, the bids were referred to the chief engineer at the conclusion of the previous meeting. He wa to make a thorough investigation and report at yesterdays mooting. This he did.

Secretary Thurber, of the Board, said that Mr. Buck report favored giving the contract to Westbrook, who was the next lowest bidder. Tlie engineer and the Commissioner, it was learned, had figured up the cost of erecting the tower, and they came to the conclusion that $477,000 would be about tbe right sum. Mr. Flynns bid, it will readily be sei, i a good deal lighter.

This wa the reason Mr. Buck favored Westbrook. Lie was a little afraid that P. II. Flynn wouldnt be able to carry on the work.

Mr. Flynn ridiculed this, and offered to put up a bond of that he would construct tho tower satisfactorily if the contract wa given to him. This had a good deal to do with the awarding of the contract. It satisfied the Commissioner that Mr. Flynn would be able to erect the tower in good style.

The meeting yesterday was of several hours duration. Every one of the Commissioners were present, together with the two Mayors. AVurster and Strong. It was not their intention of being present, but they were hurriedly oent for, a few minutes before 2 ootock. The meeting wasnt called order until they arrived.

Colonel Andrew Baird occupied the chair and Secretary Thurber recorded. The bids were immediately taken up and discussed. Engineer Bucks report was received and placed on Then the Commission debated as to should receive the contract. Secretary Thurber says that the Commissioners were unanimous in giving it to Flynn. When this been agreed upon they discussed the advisability of having the tower erected of granite.

The majority of the Commissioners in favor of the mixture, and they prevailed. 8o the tower will be of granite and limestone. This will be a saving of $40,000. The Executive Committee of the Board meet on Friday afternoon in the office the Chief Engineer, Broadway aud Berry street, in the Eastern District. Whether or Mr.

Flynn will be compelled to give au bond Mr. Thurber could not say. as matter is placed in tbe hands of the Executive They will decide this their meeting Friday afternoon. Mr. Flynn will in all probability sign the contract Friday afternoon.

He If pointed awlsnee of Thomaa O. splint, for tha 1 benefit bf hi creditors, at his place of transact- that it was no more than he expected, was the lowest bidder and as such was confident that he would receive the contract.

Tet with all the disadi antagc under which they are laboring, the Democrat are -evidently giring their opponent some round for MJearine. although the Re-' publicans all claim the county by fpm to 20,000 majority for McKinley.

If they ere to certain, it seems a waste of tnoney to expend the boodle in their pos-eaion, bpt, of course, the hangers-on mtiet ft employed. Notwithstanding their poverty, the Democrats manage to meet the people their jteveral district, and tbe good work goes ravely on. But perhaps the best and most efficacious missionary work is being done by earnest men, who have not been affiliated with the party organization of the county. Of all the speakers the stump, very few them have been identified heretofore with the regulars. Some have been independent Democrats, some have trained with the Peoples party, some (and tjie inot active) have been Single Taxers, many of them with Republican leaning.

Night after night tjiese men can be hoard in different districts of the city, and even go out to Queens and Suffolk counties. They recognize in the Chicago platform a new Declaration of Independence, and in William .1. Bryan reincarnated Thomas Jefferson, And whatever their previous affiliations they re now zealots working in the ranks of the rejuvenated Democracy. These men may not be polished orators, but the people bear them gladly, and the truths that they titter sink into good soil, and will give forth I fruit in the harvesting on election day. One of the men who have come over to telp in the people's cause is Sylvester L.

a nephew of the venerated priest of the Eastern District. lie d.d yeomans ervice when Henry George ran on the Ihabor platform iu New York for Mayor ic 1886. Mr. Malone, though, was a Republican, and was a supporter of Harrison four rear ago, and of Morton two years ago. But Mr.

Malone is first of all an American patriot, and be sees ill the new Democracy the only party to which he can give his conscientious adherence now. Mr. Malone, like other intelligent Republican, can give reason for the faith that is in him to-day. money power has for years con trolled both the Republican and Democratic parties, eotliat there was very little difference in their purpose or their candidates, It mattered very little which party won, the money power was sure to be on the in-aide. The men who are behind that tr mendous ijower were party men only so long their interests demanded it, and thus we eee them all on one side the side of Hanna nd McKinley.

When they saw that they could no longer control the Democratic party they left it, and the people will keep them together in the future. The people tiaveoncemore the opportunity to regain the control of their Government, and to govern themselves according to their wishes, without the intervention of the money power, nd all that that her has but use in past times, where as it is nw ran treason, anarchy, repudiation, or any other vicious term to be found within the rovers of Webter'a International. Time change, however, but blgota never, and "Janus wilt always have followers. Of the fall of prices, the depression trade, and the ahrluknge of land rents, Mr, riorreiKmt has this to ay: Simultaueou with the fall of silver, commenced the fail of price, and the two have run parillel siuce early in 1S73.

But there was a errim man in New York Stafe, known as an atute am able politician, hi name Wat and Uhmd hiui was me Kmtem financier. Mr. Flatt went to a man who wax managing the convention in the interest of a certain gentleman, and him that he couM r.ot expect to carrr any LUatorn State unUu the cooveotioa adopted the go xtand'ird.

They said id the Hepuhloitn platform that bimetallism was a good thing, thu virtually saying it waa the proper system of money, but that we couldn't maintain the free coinage of silver until we secured the consent of other nations. When that plank waa said Mr. Larkin, some of the Ablest, noblest and best men in the party, headed by Senator Teller, marched out of the convention with tear in their eyes, because the party they loved had des rted the people and gone into the hands of the bankers and syndicates. About two week after came a convention at Chicago, supposed to represent tbe Democracy of the IDited States. Certain gentlemen stopped their trips to Europe, and others went to Chicago to show the Democrats of the South and West that they were still in the saddle.

But there were moo in that convention who had been studying th- money question and th pretentious L.iatern gentlemen were unable to make them waver from the conclusion at which they had arived. And the result was the adoption of a platform that was not a straddle, but a straightforward declaration for the money of the fathers and of the Constitution, for the free and equal rights of silver and gold at the mints at the ratio of 16 to 1. Then certain men refused to abide by the conventions decision, Who were they? Whitney, Flower, Belmont and men of that character all bankers. They said their self-interest was at stake. No political party, said Mr.

Larkin, in the history of the nation had ever dared to plead before the country for a single gold standard. The gold standard which we had passed into wa not established by any law of the United State. No man of common sense would believe that once the Government puts its stamp on a silver piece and declares it worth one dollar, that it wouldnt pass for a dollar. They talk about free silver affecting the value of the working peoples bank savings and investments in building and loan association. As president of tbe State Building-Loan Association, the speaker declared that if he thought for a moment that the establishment of free silver coinage wouldnt benefit thse workers and toilers he wonldn't be at tbe meeting.

Stripped of its sophistries and tbe cloak of disguise removed fronrtit, this fight was not alone on the money question. It is a fight of the masses against tbe classes, of the people against monopoly. Mr. Larkin wa heartily applauded throughout his speech. He was succeeded by P.

D. Murray. Mr. Murray introduced his address with a glowing description of the progress and resources of the United States and asked bow came it that industries were paralyzed and so many men chained in enforced idleness. It was because of the ruinous financial system by which a few were slowly but surely getting rich aod the great mass on the other hand were being reduced to pauperism.

Tom Reed said that the Democratic platform was a platform of repudiation. What theories or doctrines were embodied in this platform? That the Democratic party had at last come down to the plain people of the country and refused to be hissed by the shylocks of Europe and the bankers of Wall Street. That it had oome down to the principles of Thomas Jefferson, to the spirit of tbe Constitution and proclaimed that Congress alone had power to coin money and regulate it value. The Democratic party demanded that all the money of the country, whether of gold, silver or paper shall be issued and controlled by the Government alone and not by banks and untaxed corporation wbo may regulate the value of the bumble cdt.zen's labor or little piece of property. Mr.

Murray delved into the financial oper a tion of the Government since the first issue of paper money and strikingly presented the selfish schemes of the financiers in getting the Government to decree the payment of their bonds first in coin instead of paper and finally in gold alone. The vigorous applause that frequently intruded itself Into bis speech, clearly indicated the force with which Mr. Murrays arguments bad affected the minds of the audience. G. 8.

He impressed upon bis audience one fact, and that was that the value of dollar depended on tbe number of dollars in existence, pnd not upon the material of which it was He quoted from John Locks, David Uumtue and John Stuart Mill in support of his proposition. When you decreased the quantity of money it rose, In valne, -and when you increased it it declined in value.

In designing a gown, first decide upon a picture, for it is absolutely essential that you look as though you had stepped from a frame containing a painting of the time of Marie Antoinette, or it may represent Continental gowning. If from a Continental picture, the costume may be of snuff brown cloth, heavy, with plain skirt adorned about the bottom with straps of cloth underlaid with white satin. An Eton jacket of the cloth has plain, tight, sleeves and strap trimming! also.

It should open in true Continental revers over a bodice of lettnr-e green satin, with corselet of the same material A'snuff colored velvet hat, with high crown satin, with corselet, of tlth same material. Other gowns, in the fashion of French kings, have jackets of velvet that glitter with many atones, and open over soft fronts of motisseline. The jackets should be worn with skirt of moire poplin, velvet or brocade. Black is the correct color. THE LATEST.
