THE PRESIDENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF
PARKS AND NIB. FOLEY.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
Permit me to call attention to the following re-
marks, made in your journal OF this morning
which Internationally convey an impression I'M
favorable to the action OF the Park Department
with reference to the workingmen's meeting at
Tompkins square. You say
The fault OF overstralning authority Is whichmus
SSent e Ia aSy in
to use It The reserved and udicious of authority is
more point on this matter than the
OF legal right the part Of the Park Commissioners
have ordered the police to prevent the holding
ing in TOmpkins square
The facts are as follows:-I was called upon on
Thursday by committee claiming to represent
the worklngmen, who asked permission TO as
semble in public meeting at Tompkins square.
With the assurance that the objects were intended
to be peaceful and simply for the purpose Of max
ing known their grievances to the public, the
Board, which convened the next day alter the
visit OF the committee, unanimously authorized
me to grant the permission, which was promptly
done. On Monday morning the Police Commits
siOners sent special messenger to the depart
sion, alleging as reason that the police authori-
ties had reason to believe that the proposed meet
Ing, II allowed. would endanger the public peace.
The Park Commissioners declined TO act until the
Commissioners OF Police presented their request
In writing, which request was complied with later
In the day by the presentation OF the ioowing:-
Resolved, That the Department Public Parks be re-
grant any permi,son to the calling themselves
unemployed werkngmen to meet in Tompkins square
to the City Hall to menace the public authorities and
the same be revoked by your department..
The Park Commissioners did not feel at liberty
to decline such q request. Had the Commissioners
done so and riot ensued they would have been held

Strange Ilffect of Matrimony.

Tho Paris correspondent of the Lon.
don Daily Telegraph writes: "a strange
Incident is reported from Lyons, of
which i first heard some da, ago with
out crediting it. On the 9th October
two young people were married in that
town. Within few hours of the cere-
mony they became insensiblo, and have
remained so ever since, The Lyons
doctors have exhausted their science in
this case, and the uckless pair, though
alive yet are evidently sinking from
mere starvation. There can be no quos-
ton but that some narcotic, of tho most
violent CLASS has been given them pro-
badly as a joke. To-day we are told
that a young man, apprenticed TO n
chemist, has boon arrested on suspicion.
But II Is believed that several of the
marriage-guests bore part in the affair,
which was meant as q jest only"
