Appointing the Inspectors OF Election.
Yesterday Mayor wickhnm sent commu-
nications to the Police Commissioners individu-
ally, marked personal" 1t was rumored that
his Honor's missives wero merely requests to
resign. The Mayors special messenger arrived
after o'clock, and the documents were handed
to the members Of tho Board just as they had
dismissed three policemen and passed resolu-
ttons calculated to create anxiety among the
gamblers.
The Mayors action was not wholly unexpcct-
ed, either by the Commissioners themselves or
oy those conversant with the fact that Tam
many has zealOusly striven for some time to
have the entire board changed, SO that a now
board might be appointed, and through that
board Iammany might influence the appoint
ment oil Inspectors OF election. II Is generally
believed tbat the communications sent yester-
day to the Commissioners had that end In view
The Mayor supposed that his action would
not be Immediately made public, and when
questioned he seemed at = loss for an explana-
ton He declined at first to say anything what
ever, but finally he admitted that ho had sent
communications to the Commissioners, but
whether they contained charges preferred
against tho members OF the board individually,
he refused to tell. ~ should be very glad"

The Investigating Committee OF the
Jersey City Education Board appointed to in
quire into the charges Of corruption and extra
vaRance preferred by Director Hollins met last
night. Director Sanborn Intercepted the wit
nesses, and Director Hollins carried on the
cross-examinatlon and in testimony elected
from Director NcGrath proved that while the
percentage Of pupils had gradually decreased
the salaries OF teachers had incre ased. Mr..
Holns presented facts and figures culled from
the reports OF tho Superintendent Of schools to
prove his assertions, which tho accused member
could not explain away.
In examining Dir. Fnck, an ex-clerk Of the
Board, MIR. HOllins asked him whether Miss
Gardner, the principal OF School IL, was not ap-
pointed because she was friend OF Director
Lyon, and more competent candidates set aside.
Director Pangborn declared that the reference
TO the lady by Mr. Hollins was mean and con-
temptible."
An uproar followed, and Chairman Mercein's
Ravel pounded the desk in the attempt TO re-
store order.
Director Hollins, with tauntinR coolness, per-
sisted in bis question, and Director Lyon leaped
70 his feet In anger, and shouted that when Mr.
