Aa a matter of party politics the Democrats had an opportunity In thslr caucus to put the Republicans In an ugly tactical position. Representative Hays resolution substantially providing for a filibuster against any Important legislation until the Republican majority had shown Its hand on the matter of tariff revision was good politic. Bourke Cookrane motion to adjourn before the matter ly doclded never would have been put In a cllucus of House Republicans and, even If It had been put, It would not have been carried. The fact that the motion was carried Indicates that there Is that lack of cohe-slvenese which will prevent the House Democrats from accomplishing whftt they ought to accomplish at this session, It Is well-understood fact that some of the Southern men men who are the bone and sinew of the Democracy In Congress resent Mr. Bryans notion In oomlng to Washington at the opening of Congress wlfh the avowed purpose of Injecting himself Into the situation.

Some of them are admirers of Mr Bryan, but they do not think he was called upon to advise the Democrats In Congress as to their duties, political or otherwise. They are Inclined ho regard themselves as fairly well qble to take care of their own interests and the Interests of the Democratlo party, without that sort of dictation on account of which they have been criticizing the Republican for several year. Representative Champ Clark, of Missouri, has tried to confuse the Republicans by Introducing a bill repealing the duty Imposed on paper used In printing and hopes that a dlsdusslon will result between the tariff readjusters and the standpatters, as the President Is committed In favor of It. What eventually, If anything, will be done about It can be determined only by time. lng too great faith In the Impressions of early youth, was tbe period at Which I saw the play, which we revived 1 last night at Dalys.

In Manhattan the county Jail and civil prison Is located on Ludlow street and Is commonly known as Ludlow Street Jail.

All the Sheriffs prisoners are confined there, unless admitted to ball. Brooklyn, It Is argued, must have a similar Institution, i Sheriff Flaherty, whose term will end on December 31, has requested the Sinking Fund Commission to provide a Jail for Mr. Hobley. It has been proposed to set aside a part Of the Raymond Street Jail for use as a civil prison for the time being. The Finance Department officials Contend that two buildings are not necessary.

The Department of Correction takes a contrary view; It doesnt want to shelter Sheriffs prisoners on the ground that there would be divided 4authprlty In the Jail. Comptroller Metz subordinates, who hare charge of the think the city would save thousands of dollars If the Sheriff -elect consented to the boarding of his prisoners In fhsyJTaymond Street Jail, even at the rate of $1 per day. The average number of Civil prisoners In the Jail Is six per day. Aa the Sheriff Is financially responsible for all civil prisoners committed to his custody, It Is not regarded as likely that Mr. Hobley will consent to the boarding them as Is Inform War Department That Ha "Leaves Hamburg To-day, and I Due Here Deoember 18.

President Roosevelt Is showing decided Impatience with Frank H. Hitchcock and other Federal officeholders who are alleged to be conveying the Impression that the Administration Is winking ope eye at the Cortelyou candidacy for the Republican Presidential nomination. The President realizes, from Information he has received, that he is fast being placed In the position of disloyalty to Secretary Taft and connivance at the Cortelyou campaign. He Is flatly determined that this Bhall not continue, and In the last few days he has spoken unmistakably. Federal officeholders who are supporting Cortelyou and talking against Taft now understand that they can not1 any longer do this at the expense of the Presidents strong regard for and loyalty to Taft.

The Information taken to the President Is that Mr, Hitchcock, who Is the acknowledged manager of the Cortelyou campaign, has been telling various Republicans, especially those from (he South, that the bottom hds been knocked out of the Taft boom and that the President is perfectly willing that South; em Republicans shall give their backing to Mr, Cortelyou. The straight facts are that the President Is by no means satisfied that Secretary Taft ba lot any strength; has no Idea of deserting him for Mr.tjortelyou or anyone else, believes that he will be nominated and elected, and will stand hy him to the last. That he has now passed down the line his determination that his appointees shall pot go out of their way to injure Appellate Division Reverses Decision of Lower Court in a Manhat- Sl tan Bank Cas The Appellate Division, First District of the Supreme Court, has reversed the order granting a peremptory writ of mail3amus compelling the officers of the National Park Bank of Manhattan to allow William R. Hunter, a stockholder, holding four shares, an Inspection of the book, list of stockholders of tha bank, with addresses and the number of shares held by each stockholder. In an opinion handed down yesterday by Justice Ingraham, in which Justices McLaughlin, Patterson', and Scott concuireu, uiey stated that where facts are stated which Justify an Inference that the application Is not mads In good faith for the benefit of protection of the applicant, but for tbe benefit of undisclosed persona, the Court haa power, and should, before granting the application! at least require the applicant to frankly atate whether or not he Is acting at the Instigation of other who arc Undisclosed and the purpose for which the application Is made.

Justice Houghton dissented. This decision apparently ha no bear-' lng on the cases of the depositors and stockholders of the closed Brooklyn banks. At Albany last Saturday Justice Betts Offered to give thd court order granting an inspection of the boQka to depositors if necessary, but counsel for the receivers In every esse offered to cooperate.

I Graham Avenue Board of Traxle Hold a Public and Private Meeting In One Night, The Graham Avenue Board of Trade resorted to star chamber proceedings last night at (he meeting which was held at headquarters, 443 Graham avenue, and after a short public session, at which very little business of public Importance was transacted It was decided to go Into executive session.

What was on the programme officers refused to state, but the reporters were given the hint that their chairs webe needed. Thle Unusual action caused some speculation, but the Veil of mystery was not lifted. No other Board of Trade in this bor-1 ough holds a public and executive session. At ttie public meeting the only lmport-t ant piece of business was the action on the Treasurers report. This showed that the organization was indebted tp the Chairman of the Executive Committee, Henry Warncke, for the sum of $101.08.

After the report was read by the Secretary Mr, Warncke took the floor and announced that he was willing to give a receipted bill In order that the organization might commence the new year 4 free of debt. Mr. Warncke In making the offer said It was his purpose to have the Board begin the new year on a strong financial basis. With he money that will he raised by the theatre party to he given In January he believed that the organizes-tlon would be well off, financially. Commiss.oner Owen Murphy thanked Mr.

Warncke for the gift, but he felt that the organisation should not allow him to stand the whole sum. He stated that with the proceeds of the theatre party the Board could pay Its debts. Mr. Skelton suggested that a vote of thanks be extended to the Chairman of the Executive Committee, and that his offer he held over until the theatre party. If the affair Is not successful, he stated the proposition of Mr.

Warncke' mjght be reopened If the theatre party wae a success he believed Mr. Warncke Bhould tbe paid out of the proceed. After a couple of minor matters were attended to it was decided to transact the- remainder of the business behind closed doors.

Ernest Drowery, a young colored man from, Galveston, Texas, when arraigned In the Gate avenue court as a vagrant this morning, and asked Jiow he would plead to the charge, told Magistrate Furlong that he would like to be sent to the workhouse for the winter.

Drowery seemed to think that he would rather work at his trade on Blackwells Island, although the Magistrate Informed him that the men had to work hard there and were not paid for what they did. As the defendant was so persistent, he was obliged with a sentence of six months to the workhouse on Blackwell's Island and stepped down from the rail with his face wreathed with smiles.
