The CITY Hall Investigation.

Tho investigation which was ordered by
Mayor Wilt into the charges against "A"
ninistration Schneider and the Department
Of France has assumed much more Soii-
Gus aspect than it at first presented anu
will have TO be much more far reaching IN
IFS nature than could have been imagined
from the allegations that were made IN the
beginning The more the Committee lnvestl-
cate the more there is to be investigated,
and from the large number OF persons
they have to interview, it may be regarded
AZ certain that some time will be consumed
before they will be ready to report.
We have confidence that the gentlemen
composing the Committee mean TO make
their investigations as searching as the cir
cumstances will admit, but we regard 1t as
essential to the proper examination OF the
case to appoint a committee OF experts 10
look through the books OF the Department
of Finance, with a view to ascertalnlng
whethe there exists any evidence OF fraud
or irreguarity therein.
If it shall be found that any officer or
employee in the department has speculated
in the city securities; if it shall be found
that any officer or employee has permitted
the payment into the treasury OF any evil
dences of Indebtedness without their being
indorsed as the ordinances require; If 1t
shall be found that any officer or employee
has reissued warrants that were once paid
in for taxes, the public will expect that such
persons shall be removed.
If any or all of these things are found to
be true, and the offending parties simply
treated to lecture or reprimand, then the
public confidence in the city government,
which has been shaken to it's centre, will
not be restored. and city securities OF all
kinds will suffer. Nothing short OF radl-
cal remedy will suffice in this instance, and
nothing will inspire public confidence and
restore the city's credit short of total ces
sation of the practices which have been IN
dulged in under the present management of
the Finance Department.

The Rencontr: Yesterday.
ITS BEARING UPON THE INVESTIGATIO.

ITS BEARING UPON THE INVESTIGATION.
The attack upon Mr.. Levy yesterday by
Mr.. Fazende was very unfortunate affair
indeed, especially so in consideration of the
fact that the former gentleman is thought to
be the principal witness against Mr.. Schnei
Ter, and Mr. Fazende is the gentleman with
whom Mr.. Schneider admits having had the
transaction in Metropolitan Warrants, which
has been alluded to in the papers.
1t will be regarded by the community,
whether justly or not, as an attempt to in
timidate witness, and viewed in this light
it will reflect very seriouly upon those who
are accused and whose acts are now under
investigation at the Hall.
Mr.. Levy has done nothing so far as we
can discern in this matter which should
have brought down upon him the indigna-
ton Of any one. He has given no informa
ton to this paper which to any one, save,
perhaps, Mr.. Schneider, could possibly take
offensei on the contrary, he has been
very guarded in the use of names, deal
ing mostly with facts which the inves-
tigation has 50 far found to be true. We
take it that Mr.. Levy has only performed
his duty in exposing the Irregularities which
were having a very damaging effect upon
city securities, and which, to certain ex-
tent, were injuring every individual in the
community; and we conceive that SO far
from any blame attaching to him for his
conduct, he is entitled to the thanks Of
every citizen for the fearless manner in
which he has stepped forward to arrest a
wrong which was silently but surely under
mining the city's credit by destroying conf
dence in the city government.
| If Mr. Fazende had any personal griev-
ance against Mr.. Levy, other than appears
upon the surface, it is unfortunate that he
shonld not have waited until the present
troubles were over, before attempting to call
Mr.. Levy to an account.
| We fail to see wherein Mr.. Fazende has
any just ground for complaint. No one has
charged him with any wrong action no one
believes tor moment that he was anenable
to such a charge. He simply acted as a
broker in the matter, which he had per-
feet right to do, aud not even by implication
can he be made a party to any illegal or i'm
proper action. We dismiss the matter, sin
cerely hoping that all further difficulty will
be avoided for the sake of all parties con-
cerned.

though not often, read Of triplets being born

case where there was an increase of four
in one family, as has occurred in this
parish within the past year. At least so it is
reported at the Tax Collectors Office, where,
it is said, gentleman gave in his assessment
last year and stated that he had one child.
The same gentleman called few days since
to make his returns for this year, and as
tounde knowing ones by saying his child
