The Tammany Tanzle.

The Affairs Of Tammany are getting into a
terribly tangled condition. There are several
causes tending to make the present confusion
in the Wigwam. First in order comes the old
difficulty between Waterbury and Green on
one side and John Kelly on the other, grow
ing out Of the charges OF official dishonesty
made against the ex-Sherif by Waterbury,
backed by Green. Then there is the open
revolt Of John Morrissey, directly against
Mayor Wickham and indirectly against John
Kelly, induced first by the conspiracy to
defeat Hayes for Register, to which both
Wickham and Kelly are alleged to have been
parties, and strengthened subsequently by the
refusal Of those leaders to recognize Hayes
claim to a commissionership in one of the de-
partments. The Morrissey detection naturally
combines itself with the elements heretofore
opposed to Kellys autocratic rule, and repre-
sented by such leaders as ex-Sheriff Brennan,
ex-County Clerk Loew and others of less
note. II takes in Senator Ledwith and his
friends and County Clerk Walsh-the former
positively and tho latter negatively, Ledwith
being the candidate Of Morrissey, Hayes,
Walsh, Brennan and Loew for next Sheriff,
and Walsh being willing to go with the dis
affected party whenever they can show q fair
prospect OF success. With all these elements
at work, and with Waterbury and Green ac-
lively engaged in the attempt to make a
combination with District Attorney Phelps
for an anti-Tammany judicial and legislative
ticket next fall, it has become a matter of
necessity for John Kelly and his friends to
take some determined steps to put down
rebellion which is at present scattered and
disjointed, but which, if suffered to consoh-
date and harmonze, may prove powerful
enough to overthrow the present rule in
'Tammany.
The first positive step taken by Kelly against
the conspirators has been the arragnment Of
Waterbury for the offence of betraying the
secrets Of the organization. This movement
has, however, been checkmated by an order
Of tho Supreme Court, issued by Judge Davis,
requiring the production Of tho constitution
and bylaws under which the adverse proceed
ing is taken, AID protecting Waterbury until
the order has been complied with and his
rights asccrtained by the Court A yet holder
step has been the institution Of an investiga-
ton by the Committee on Discipline into the
conduct Of the district committees, with the
ayowcd purpose of Kidding the society OF
TRADERS" This movement is known 70 ~ di-

College commemorate.

Yesterday was The Annual Commencement
Of the University Of the City Of New York
and Of some other institutions, Of which we
print reports this morning In themselves
the exercises were not unlike those which we
have been recounting from year to year ever
since the HERALD was founded, only there has
been an increase in the number of the ''com-
mencements" occasioned by the growth Of SO
many new universities" Their significance
is an entirely different matter, and if young
men arc graduated to-day better fitted to
battle with the world than was the case few
years ago it Is because of what they took into
their colleges and not on account Of what
they bring out. We believe there never was
time when American scholarship, 50 far as
the colleges are concerned, was lower than it
is now. A classical education is no longer
rigidly insisted on, as it was within even
comparatively recent period, and the
result is that rigid mental training is
fast disappearing altogether. We are not dis
posed to bewail the disrepute into which the
''classlcs" have fallen, but at the same time
we cannot fail to see that superficial study
and disloInted thinking are usurplng the
places which we're once given to patient in
vestigation and logical deduction. The con-
sequence is that young men come from col
lege nowadays wiser than their teachers and
fully confident that they are strong enough TO
carry the whole world on their shoulders.
They instruct rs in the philosophy OF life
before they have begun to live and are able to
toss Of az Grafton on the moral progress Of
the century with as much ease as they will
feel in dealing with o glass of champagne
before the next alumni dinner. All this may
DO well enough, but we shall look for ward
with much interest to the time when we shall
have real universities and when college
diploma shall be q certificate Of genuine
mental training

The testimony of the detective, Martinez
before the legislative committee on Wednes-
day, though it contained nothing that was not
well known before, was SO direct and positive
Ill some particulars as to amount almost to q
revelation. The charges against Captain Bur-
den are of the most serious character and if
such charges can be sustained against an
officer as reputable as he we are forced to the
conclusion that our police administration is,
and for many years has been, honeycombed
with corruption. No condition of society
more dangerous to the community can be
imagined than police force which is organ
lied for the protection of the criminal classes,
instead of the honest and industrious part of
the population. II we are to believe Marti-
not's testimony, which merely relates in de-
tail aud with a precision that cannot be
evaded by simple denial what everybody had
been led to regard as true the police captains,
and, possibly, officers even higher in authority,
have been systematically blackmailing the
keepers of panel houses and other dis
reputable places. Neither the efforts of in
dividuals nor the exposures of the press
coulu lnduce the ponce 10 close even the most
infamous of these Places and when it hap
pened that house of i'll fame was interfered
with by the police it always seemed that the
action OF the officers was only the prelude to
q fresh tax upon crime. Now, worse charges
than the press has ever made are preferred
against the police on the sworn testimony of
an officer familiar with ali the workings Of
the department, aud to the police captains of
the metropolis are imputed offences worse
than those committed by the burglars and
thieves, against whom the police should be a
certain protection. No offence can be more
degrading than levying backmail upon vice
and crime, and this it seems, is the constant
practice Of the metropolitan police. In view
Of these things the legislative committee
cannot stop its inquiries until the whole truth
is known in regard to police administration in
New York. Specific proof can be obtained in
regard to this system Of police blaclxmail,
and the committee viii fail in its duty unless
it completely exposes the corrupt officials
VINO have so dishonored the metropolis
