New YoRK, Sept. 20.ATwo cases of
Asiatic cholera are said TO have appeared
at Perth Amboy, Jersey, the victims
being recently landed immigrants from
Germany. The Amboyans are alarmed.
An investigation has been commenced.
A LuII In the storm.
The recession of Mayor Hall from the
course which he had signifed his inten-
ton to pursue to reform the Comptroller
ship has produced manifest quiet In re-
gard to the municipal situation. The
Mayors action Is st once snacknowledge-
ment of defeat and settles the case of the
ring. Sweeney was anxious yesterday
thai Hall should back down. At an in
telvieW with that official he strongly
urged the adoption of thst course. -
Hall declares that the question between
himself and Connolly is purely official.
He thinks that the advice of O'Gorman
to institute suits against those who have
plundered the treasury does not apply to
the case of Connolly, and that he believes
that Judge Bsrnard's injunction viii hold
until the formal withdrawal of Connolly
from the membership of the board of
spportionment.
WaWtll the Ring Go 10 SIng-SInRl
The plaintiff Foley, of the injunction
suit tells an interviewer that Connolly
has no sffilistion whatever with the citi-
zens' committee movement; that he
offered to make restitution in full, and
besides submit statements which will
criminate Sweeny, Tweed and Hall, and
probably send these gentlemen to prison.
He thinks If Connolly goes to prison he
will take with him the rest of the ring.
O'Gormen-He Will and He WOn't.
The corporation counsel, O'Gorman,
says that he will proceed vigorously
against the men to whom payments of
fraudulent claims have been made, if ,evi-
dence in the cases are obtained. The
officers of the city government are his
clients and it is not his duty to prosecute
any charge against them. There is moth
ing new up to this afternoon of the situ-
alton. The City Hall has quiet appear
ance. The excitement throughout the
city has subsided.
Another Report.
To 2 o'clock this afternoon, Mayor
Hall had not officially recognized Comp
troller Connolly or Deputy Green. 1t Is
reported that he will issue no revocation
of his order TO the heads of departments.
Ex-Deputy Storrs remains an attache Of
the Comptroller's Office, as chief clerk.
LATER.-It is reported on good author
ity that the Comptronership will now be
rendered by the Mayor to VIM. E. Warren.
Mr.. Warren is Republican.
O'Brien.
Ex Sheriff O'Brien has issued q letter
denouncing Tweed, Hall, Sweeney and
Connolly, and denying the statements
made in some of the papers that he was
secretly in league with the ring.
$4,000, ,OoO More of vouchers Gone F.!
The Post this evening announces, on
the highest authority, that the vouchers
stolen from Connolly's office on Sunday
night week are not the only ones missing
from that Office. Early in the summer it
is said that city vouchers for $1,000, 900
were suddenly missed from the Control
ler's office, though it is only very recently
that the Mayor or any other officer
outside of the controllers Office
knew of the abstraction of the documents.
The Auditor through whose hands these
vouchers passed, and who is responsible
for their accuracy, was J. Townsend
Connolly, son of the Comptroller, and
who has since left the country and gone
to Europe, Mr.. Herring taking his place.
The Post however says it has not learned
whetoer the vouchers were missing imme-
diately after Connolly's departure or not,
nor has it any facts directly duplicating
him in the theft.
1t is said by men who know these
vouchers were missing, that it was de-
signed to manufacture new ones in their
place, but it is believed Mayor Hall will
make use of this robbery as well as the
later one, for driving Connolly from Of
Hce.
The man who stole the vouchers from
the Comptroller's Office on Sunday week
is known, and will be arrested in the
1t appears that Connolly had
nothing to do with the affair which was
instigated by the head of another depart
mept.
The department of Parks renewed its
of Connolly, for money with
which to pay the lsborers on the parks
and Boulevards. The total amount of
since June 8, is 81, 100, 900
of which only $27, 900 has been received.
Midnight.
NEW YORK, Sep. 90, midnight-Noth-
ing more developed during the evening
the truth of the Posts
story. 1t is reported, however, on good
that it was only another dodge
of Mayor Halls in his fight with Con-
molly.
LATER-Connolly publishes a letter
tomorrow, acknowledging the Posts
story, but denying his sons completely.
He sfflrms further that Hall and Sweeney
have long been cOgnizsnt of the facts.
